  Housing costs more, groceries cost more, even a basic family insurance plan feels like a luxury now. I keep wondering if it’s just me struggling to manage, or if the cost-of-living crisis has genuinely changed the rules of the game for everyone.

  It’s definitely not just you—the cost-of-living crisis has shifted the baseline for what “normal” expenses look like. A lot of people are feeling the same pressure, trying to keep up with rising costs that outpace income.
