(electronic music)
- No, no cool intro, no fancy music.
I just want to explain inflation in six minutes.
I have a degree in economics.
I spent years trying to understand this.
(ominous music)
so let's see if I can boil it down.
What is inflation?
Why is it rising?
Why are people worried?
And what do interest rates have to do with it?
- The Federal Reserve is raising the interest rate.
- [Reporter] Fed is set to raise interest rate.
- Highest inflation in 40 years.
- Listen, I know that I make long videos.
I'm into nuance, I'm into backstory.
Well, this isn't that.
This is quick.
("quick" echoing)
No, really, this is quick.
Let's go.
- Okay, first up, the simplest definition.
Inflation is when there is more money in the economy
than stuff to spend it on.
But if you're like me, the simplest definition never does
it for you.
So let's try this.
Imagine a village that has one market where people buy
all of their stuff, their food, their clothes,
but one day the government shows up
because they're worried about the economy of this village.
So they tell the people that if they want to take
out a loan, they're gonna make sure
that the banks will not charge them a high interest rate.
They want to encourage the people to take out loans
and spend money.
Oh, and they also drop off a giant pile of cash
for everyone in the village.
And everyone in the village is like, "Sweet,
I'm feeling pretty rich."
Villagers now are going to their market and they're buying
way more stuff.
Many of them have been eyeing the fancy electric bike
in the market that before they couldn't justify.
But now they totally can
because they have all this new money.
The store owner's like, "Sweet. this is great for business."
But he's running out of bikes.
In fact, he's running out of everything
because now all of these people have extra money
and they're buying way more than they used to.
