Imagine your yearly increase being more than inflation

I haven't seen this in over 7 years... And I'm fucking angry about it, if I'm being honest.

I was in the workforce for over 20 years. Never got a pay raise that matched inflation. Started my own business growing marijuana, and have been able to buy a house and save up a retirement fund in a little over 7 years.
