Imagine you're playing a game where everyone has coins, and the goal is to buy toys. If suddenly there's a big fight for the toys, like a war, people start printing more coins so they can keep buying. But now, every toy costs more because there are too many coins floating around. That’s how inflation works in times of crisis.
Examples
- A big event like a pandemic can cause everyone to spend more at once.
