Inflation is 1% a year, and your savings account interest rate is 2% a year. After five years, what is true of the money in your savings?

Answer It will buy more

When your interest rate is higher than inflation, it has more buying power than it did before. Inflation impacts the cost of goods and services, so if it rises at a slower rate, that's good for your wallet!
