Everyone's talking about deflation, but in reality everything feels expensive these days.

Grab a bag of groceries at the supermarket, and 200-300 yuan is gone just like that.

Order a decent meal from food delivery, and you're looking at 50+ yuan minimum.

The barber shop downstairs went from 5-10 yuan to 30 yuan, and that's the friends-and-family rate.

I don't know if the CPI data is up or down,

but my account balance is definitely deflating at a visible rate.

The only thing that hasn't gone up is probably my position size.
