Based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics CPI-U annual averages. $100 in 1990 buys what about $246 does in 2025 — prices roughly 2.5× in 35 years, averaging ~2.6% a year (with the 2021-2023 spike peaking at 8% in 2022). This is exactly why cash sitting idle loses value and long-term money needs to be invested. Estimates only.
