There’s no doubt about it, inflation is here in a big way. So how can you put your money to work to stay ahead of it? The good news is there are some things you can do to protect and possibly grow your money in an inflationary economy. We cover some of these suggestions below for those who are looking to make the best use of their money during this time of high inflation.
Key Takeaways
Inflation can be a challenge for everyone, especially those with little to no exposure in the stock market or a lot of extra cash sitting around.
Taking steps to lessen the impacts of inflation on your finances is key, whether it’s through investing or cutting costs.
The ultra-rich know that diversification across several different asset classes that outperform the market during inflationary times is key. These could include alternative investments like contemporary art, real estate, peer-to-peer lending, and more.
Diversify With One of the Most Inflation-Resilient Alternative Assets
Investing in art can provide a hedge against inflation, according to research from Bank of America. That’s because art correlation to other asset classes is extremely low. The firm’s Chief Investment Strategist expects inflation to surge and recommends investing in real assets, like art, as protection. The annual price appreciation of contemporary art has outpaced the S&P 500 by 164% over the last 25 years.
That’s why over two-thirds of ultra-high-net-worth collectors allocate at least 10% of their overall portfolios to art, on average, according to Deloitte. For the rest of us, there’s a new alternative investing platform called Masterworks. Now you can diversify your portfolio with multimillion-dollar paintings1 by artists like Banksy and Picasso without needing millions. With over 350,000 registered users it’s one of the most exclusive platforms to join.
Pay Down High-Interest Debt
Many credit cards have variable interest rates, meaning when the Feds raise the federal funds rate, your interest rate on your credit cards are likely to rise with it. The Feds have already stated they will most likely be raising the rate more than once in 2022 to combat inflation, so now is the time to start paying down any high-interest credit card debt.

Ariel: What is Not Feasible for Iraq
10-17-2026
In My Opinion- What Is Not Feasible For Iraq
Iraq cannot formally submit a credible, WTO-compliant 2027 budget using a phantom program rate (1,310) that nobody not the IMF, not the World Bank, not their own central bank governors believes reflects economic reality.
A budget denominated in a currency that has no operational international Forex rate is a fiscal fiction. It cannot be audited. It cannot be stress-tested.

Tishwash: President Al-Zaydi: The cabinet formation is complete and we have filled the vacant portfolios.
Prime Minister Ali Faleh al-Zaidi confirmed on Thursday that the cabinet formation is complete five months after the government was formed, stressing the commitment to implementing the government program's priorities and responding to the aspirations of Iraqis.
Al-Zaydi said in a statement received by Iraq Observer that the government has worked diligently and persistently over the past months under extremely complex internal and external circumstances, explaining that the war in the region has imposed, and continues to impose, exceptional economic challenges on Iraq, in addition to security challenges that require the highest levels of responsibility and vigilance.
Why Are Central Banks Buying So Much Gold in 2026?
Published: 10-05-2026 De-dollarization is the gradual shift by central banks away from holding the US dollar as their dominant reserve asset. In practice, that usually means adding gold and other currencies instead. In 2026, this shift stopped being a theory investors had to take on faith.
Specifically, it is now a documented pattern, visible in the World Gold Council’s own survey data and in the IMF’s own reserve statistics.

You Could Earn 6% On Your ‘Plan B’ Home Abroad
Note From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black / Sovereign Man) October 15, 2026
For a lot of Americans, the beachfront condo has become unattainable. In Naples, Florida, the median beachfront condo on the market is listed at about $2 million. And that’s before factoring in condo fees and skyrocketing insurance costs.
Now compare that to an apartment we found during research for members of our flagship service, Plan B Confidential, in João Pessoa, a midsize beach city on Brazil's northeast coast.

Chapter 4: Bank creation of money
I'm going to show you how these banks create the dollars, create the money supply, and how that in and of itself creates a tremendous amount of demand for dollars and treasuries.
What we have is a debt based monetary system. I'm sure you guys have heard that term before. And essentially what that means, whether we like it or not, is money or currency, whichever term you want to use, is really debt.

Chapter 1: The global monetary reset
A global monetary reset is happening right now. And I can assure you it is nothing like what you've been told. You think it's about oil and the petro dollar, but it's not. It's about debt.
It's about trillions and possibly quadrillions of dollars in debt. This is the biggest monetary reset in the history of the world. It might even be the biggest event the world has ever seen. And it's happening in secret.

Ariel: Iraqi Dinar, Forex Re-entry, Bessent Doctrine, Final Sequencing
10-15-2026
The Baghdad–Washington chokepoint is now completely cleared: the Finance Minister’s IMF/World Bank sit-down was never about loans, it was the ‘final sign-off’ for re-linking Iraq’s correspondent banking rails to the global FOREX grid, meaning the Central Bank of Iraq is now positioned to execute the long-telegraphed RV/RI the moment the White Hats trigger the currency swap.
The freshly printed lower-denomination notes are already warehoused, the 2027 Budget and the Cabinet slate locked into a Thursday finish, so the domestic legal chassis is fully welded shut;
