Why do wages not increase as fast as prices?

Daffy, a not-for-profit community built around a modern platform for giving, is led by CEO and co-founder Adam Nash. Nash, who has taught “Personal Finance for Engineers” at Stanford and has held leadership roles at Wealthfront and Dropbox, is well-versed in the complexities of the financial world. In a recent episode, Nash addressed the question: "Are wages and salaries going up as much as prices are?" His answer, unfortunately, was no. He explained that while prices can change rapidly, wages tend to be sticky, meaning they don't adjust as quickly. This is due to companies typically only adjusting wages once or twice a year, creating a lag effect between when inflation happens and when wages get adjusted. But don't despair. Daffy is here to help you navigate these financial challenges.
