Another day older and deeper in debt

Well that’s the way it seems to me, given the current financial gloom. I read today that the inflation rate is way up at 5.2% and the Retail Prices Index (RPI) is up to 5%. This is good news for me 'coz I have a pay rise next month based on the RPI today, 14th Oct, and 5% will be welcome. It's bad news for many others though, and even for me I doubt it matches the true cost increase of daily living.
