COLA Watch

Part of an email that I received from MOAA.

Quote:

April COLA Announced For the month of April, the CPI is 227.012 – up 0.3 percent from March, and almost 1.7 percent above COLA baseline figure of 223.233.

Hoping for at least 2% this year, although with the recent decline in gas prices, the CPI might decline over the remaining months.

The smaller the COLA, the happier I am.

In 1982 when I was getting 10% APY on a no-fee checking account, I wasn't very happy about interest rates...

+1. But don't forget to remind us when the August numbers come in.
