How to beat inflation. 3 investment tips

April 23, 2008

The impact of inflation can be seen in practically everything you do these days.

The petrol you buy, the groceries you purchase and the food you eat, to cite a few instances.

Ask people about inflation and their reaction is they will do what they can to cut expenses.

That sounds logical, if groceries and petrol for instance have become expensive, then you must judiciously cut down on their usage to reduce the pain. But what about your investments, do you also cut down on your investments so that you can save on your 'investment bill'?

Quite the opposite. Since investments are an asset and not an expense like petrol and groceries there is scope to increase your investments in areas that can help you beat inflation. Beat inflation? Is that possible? We can show you how that is possible.
