How about an episode talking cities top 5 jobs in need, and pointing people to things that are always needed in society like electrician or dental assistant(huge bonus and need in many states)
I don’t know how but you’ve managed to package an unbiased analysis that is more entertaining than the sensationalized segment of economic and financial news. Thank you for your efforts to be the signal and not the noise. I understand that the economy is currently in a downturn and that we must wait for things to get better
As hard as it may sound you can plan for the recession. If you are working, find extra work and get an Invest--advisor. Protect your deposits by having enough cash in short term fixed income. Then cut your expenses. Minimal insurance, cut utilities.
I think the current market might give opportunities to maximize profit within a short term, but in order to execute such strategy , you must be a skilled practitioner
Due to my demanding job, I lack the time to thoroughly assess my investments and analyze individual stocks. Consequently, for the past seven years, I have enlisted the services of a fiduciary who actively manages my portfolio to adapt to the current market conditions. This strategy has allowed me to navigate the financial landscape successfully, making informed decisions on when to buy and sell. Perhaps you should consider a similar approach.
Even if you have a humongous income you still need to draw up futuristic plans because anything can happen. One could lose one's job or whatever. Investment cannot be overemphasized. About your advisor, how does one reach pls
Finding financial advisors like Melissa Terri Swayne who can assist you shape your portfolio would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.
It hasn't begun to get bad. We're in for the worse economic, social and political upheaval in US history. Get prepared, learn skills and become more self sufficient and join and support your local militias.
i was watching a video explain how the buying of bonds and debt works... our entire fed. reserve system is basically one big ponzi scheme. look up comparisons of our govs financial system and a ponzi scheme... sucks
Not to mention the 'inflation' scaremongering. Well comeuppance is a bitch. I stopped spending frivolously on most things about 5 years ago when I saw the writing on the wall. I just wish I would have bought Uranium. It was all the rage and about 5x less than it is now :(
They never count Recessions until corporations are hurting. And yet demand falling is how corporations end up hurting. So basically, they don't give a crap about the common man.
I got this notification seconds after I swiped my card for $550 at Costco for basics. I’m spending $800 a month for a family of five up here. Used to be $450 a month. I’ve gone through my recipts and if you look at individual items it didn’t seem too bad but it’s the total bill that’s important. I make over 120 a year and I’m struggling bad. Idk how anyone is still buying houses.
fuel surcharges since 2020 made all items also tack on more price as they are all delivered... throw in nonsemse doubling of insurance for truckers and we all pay for it... its all rich corps charging whatever they want
That sucks bro. I don’t know how people are buying houses but houses are selling within a week in my neighborhood for asking price or more. Not everyone is struggling
We should all just stop spending our money at ALL these places. We need some new corporations that value being fair to consumers. We need a whole new world with corporations with actual compassionate human values.
I've always been fiscally tight and fiscally responsible. As a consequence my house is paid for, my rental properties are paid for, all my cars are paid for, and I pay my one VISA credit card in full every month. I also repair my cars to save even more money. The feeling of being free from debt is intoxicating. I'm 62.
Same here! And I'm doing it on $19.50/hour with an unemployed wife raising two kids at home! One key is to buy a cheap house on the cheap side of the city in a cheap state - and do your own small repairs as they become necessary.
Good for you, it’s a great feeling to have others owe you isn’t it? It is a good thing there are people out there working their tails off to pay us rent interest, and all the rest. Go human race!
You should probably find cars that don't need to be repaired.... :) 13 yr old car, bought it 3 years used. $0 spent on repairs, only maintenance and tires. So crazy I bought the same brand again. I always budget a certain amount towards repairs for used vehicles, but am still a bit shocked I've never had to do anything on this one.
Im 26, make 250k a year, live with 2 other roommates. People and some of my family call me crazy "Why don't you just live alone?? Why do you drive a 2004 car???" I pay $1000 a month in rent and live under 2 miles away from my office, gonna actually just get rid of my car and cut that expense out of my life too. Consumerism is a disease.
Whose the guru you're about to pimp to us in the comments with a bunch of bots? All kidding aside, this is the way. I've always lived like I was still in college. At a certain point, life gets far too easy and you wonder why other people are so dumb to follow the debt rabbit down it's dirty hole. Unless you can fund productive assets with debt (that service that debt), don't go into debt. In a few years, you'll be that guy who bought property with cash when the deals were too good to pass up.
That’s how you get rich and amass millions. Even if you just save six figures it’s amazing, but you’ll likely afford a house quickly this way. THE FASTEST WAY. Everyone else online is like “just manifest MORE MONEY and keep spending and enjoying ur life” like where B, how many people who said that actually started making 500k+ a year. Like no one. All the broke B’s stay broke forever thinking that they can keep spending every cent and being deluded that one day a million bucks will fall into their bank account.
That's not new. I got that from family members when I was 25 years old. I was making far less than 250k. Its doesn't matter how much you earn. They will always say you need to spend more to enjoy life.
@@joanneburford6364 Maybe he's a hunter who hunts for his food. A lot of people still do that, you know. Frankly, in this economy, it's probably a huge relief to be able to hunt for free food.
At the end of the day it is just people from bloodlines controlling the rest of the people not from their own bloodlines through manipulation. This problem is spiritual and always has been. Let go of your attachment to your acorns (Greed and jealousy) and view work and study as something to look forward to. If you aren't looking forward to your job or your study than maybe the question you need to ask yourself is WHO is making you feel that way? Employees quit bosses, not jobs. Employers fire hindrances not employees. I can guarantee you that it is the vermin of society making you miserable not the work or study.

My wife is a manager at KOHL'S. She says it is dang near impossible to find & hire anyone under 30 with actual work ethics. Constant call off's, complaining about work schedules, showung up under the influence of something, leaving work in mid shift, and an overall attitude of entitlement. Its crazy. She says occasionally we get a new hire thats a good fit, and they go overboard to keep them and move them up to compensate their efforts both in pay and promotions. This is an excellent video with solid, real life advice.
Can't they hire people over 30? I know a lot of people wanting work around 50 that it's harder for them to get hired because employers seem to want younger people.
@@beebuzz959 yes. And they have many employees that are seniors. They've done everything they can to fill positions. They are just not getting (enough) applicants to fill the vacancy's. And there are some good younger employees there, which have been performing well & being rewarded appropriately. But unfortunately, a lot of younger new hires don't work out performance wise, or they only want to work certain ours in a given week. The huge sign out front "NOW HIRING" has been replaced three times due to fading. My wife is 48. Most of her employees are in their 50's-late 60's. And in all honesty, some have their problems too. But not from attendance or lack of performance or efforts, in their job requirements. To be frank, they're simply older and have their share of the aches & pains from working their entire lives. Something she is well aware of having done the same...as has many of us in this world. And be assured, she is not a slave driver type of boss. And is constantly looking out for her employees. Again, respectively... She is continuously asking head executives and corporate to get her more youthful employees. Maybe offer incentives to bring in new hires that appeal to their younger age groups. But to be honest once more, they already do. Unfortunately, most don't last. And to re-adress an earlier comment about pay & perks...my wife was hired just after we relocated from southern California to here. (Just looking for a seasonal, part time job) Within 3 weeks they asked her to become full time, then a month later made her permanent full time with the ability to work as much overtime as she wanted. Two months later they asked her to be a Manager. She said she'd think about it. But they came up to her and pulled her into the executive office and told her they had filled that position. And literally handed her, the promotion documentation, with a generous pay and benefits package. So that was when she decided to make it a career in retail, for Kohl's. Been there going on 6 years now. And because of that, she was able purchase this home, about 5 miles from her work, yet in a beautiful rural area just outside of town. And since, has seen several others offered the same treatment. If they get "A good one" new hire, they pull that employee aside and tell them this exact experience and urge them to stay. Some have, but most younger employees simply don't really care. The ones that did, are doing allot better in life than they thought was possible working from Kohl's. Like my my wife.
Lol... pretty sure the US government was delighted to see the virus targeted elderly people... complete nursing homes wiped out..all residents gone.. every single one of them draining the social security system... that was a huge blessing for the federal government...all the money they gave away during stimulus was probably gained back in a year or two from the reduction in social security recipients..
oh and dental work... huge wait in many michigan dental offices, 100 plus waiting list in 3 counties.. they have a 5000 new hire bonus also. just one company heh
@@Rebecca-ci3zcyes, but the opposite may be true too. Lower the prices of goods to near pre-pandemic and you could A) have fewer people stealing and B) make more sales which could recoup costs for the lost revenue from higher prices. Plus companies need to be creative to cut costs in other areas.
As a 78-yr-old boomer trying to live without debt on fixed retirement and SS, I can't imagine going on vacation on credit. Nor would I cash out some of my gold to vacate. (It's for a rainy day.) When I can afford to vacate, it's usually driving 100-200 miles to the beach or mountains. I enjoy exotic places vicariously via the internet.
It does make a difference if you are married and have two incomes. When you are widowed; I live with hardly anything. My check comes and goes. I cannot do two jobs like when I was younger. Too tired. God Bless.
Bonnie - can you get a roommate? Do you have a relative you like who is respectful - sometimes that can work. A very part time job can be a blessing as it gets you up, dressed, hair brushed & lipstick on, then among other people. Working isn’t always horrible like some folks think…🤔
Every other year my family will plan a trip to Italy to see our family there. Well, it’s been two years but not happening this year. Just can’t justify spending that kind of cash right now. In off years we will go to a national park or take another road trip to somewhere new. This year might be a year to have a staycation. Have a great weekend y’all 🍻
Same here....every other year to Italy to see friends and family. Not this year, and probably not next. Im 55, retired, nice pension, never married,no kids, own my place. Point is, I have more disposable income than those with families. Im getting squeezed, I cant imagine how tough its gotta be for those of you with families
I listen to many many financial advisors and high end financial streams like Bloomberg etc but I have to say I really like this guy’s down to earth on-the-ground type interpretations! Just his opinions which are mostly spot on with great sound advice! Love this guy!!! Thanks for keeping it real Mike…keep it rolling!!
Corporate greed is really destroying our country. I have not cut my spending... yet. But I do plan on spending less going forward because of the economic uncertainty going on right now. Some say another great depression is coming. None of us have our jobs guaranteed. I want to make sure I have enough money saved to be unemployed for a year if need be. Billionaires have built their bunkers. They are going to be all right. The rest of us? Probably not so much.
This is going to come on fast if your not dept free today . You probably never will be .. democrat s. Have adopted a globalist view.. if the USA exists the globalist view can’t win …
Corporate greed. Keep drinking the democrat kool aide. Modern Monetary Theory and flooding the economy with trillions of dollars of new money, diluting the money supply had nothing to do with it. Right? The Fed just fessed up a few days ago that they screwed up. Wake up citizen, open your eyes, there is a freight train coming and you are asleep on the tracks.

Thanks for choosing nice pleasant places to conduct your walk-about talks. Makes for a fitting offset to a serious conversation about real issues so many of us face.
i dont mind pushing my lawnmower. four years ago I would pay $35 to have my lawn mowed. today it is $75. additional $25 if he uses the weedwacker for the trim. So at 70 I have no problem pushing my mower.
That is one reason I am against the student loan "forgiveness". Back in the 2000's and 2010's, a lot of people were making all these videos of themselves taking exotic vacations and bragging about how they took student loans to do so. I don't need to pay for that.
I am generally against bail outs. Considering thousands are given to "new arrivals", I would rather American citizens benefit from these taxpayer funded ventures.
I went to college in 2010 and I certainly know that is very true. A buddy of mine still has student loan debt today, and many of those loans went to apartment utility bills and video games, as well as tuition and meal plans.
obviously that's only a small part of the loans they got (most went to the school). the school budgets $X for living, if you have a super cheap apartment you have money left over which you could go on vacation with. Are you really butthurt that someone saved $200 a month over the year and then went on a trip over the summer instead of spending it on beer?
Taxes are useful We need all the money accounted for and used for citizens… but we need taxes. The way they are spent is not ok. - stop Buying so much shit is 100% accurate
Debt free except mortgage. I used to have bad credit because of credit cards. I went back to using cash for everything, it helped me learn to control spending, and get creditors paid off. I wanted to be debt free, but it took several years to get credit cards paid off. I learned to say, “no, you don’t need that”, and I still say that. Grocery budget has gone through the roof, gas too, these last three years. We need to do better, as a country. Vote better.
You do realize, Frank, that the money earmarked to assist Ukraine is not actual pallets of cash sent over there. That money is given to American arms companies, employing American workers, to make munitions and send THOSE to Ukraine. So the money is being put into our economy, but our economy cannot be sustained by the government printing money, that will cause hyperinflation.
The problem is the government will always love spending regardless of what party is in charge. Both parties make poor poorer, rich get richer and debt gets worse. Rinse and repeat.
The problem is that many people just spend money on stupid shit. Everybody wants to look good, have the latest car to show off and live in a house they can’t afford. Now it’s time to pay the price for those dumb choices.
@@searchforthetruth1998 I have no doubt it will happen but it will come too late for the consumer including me because I don't want high prices either. I have a gut feeling we'll see oil explode higher at some point and especially if they try to lower rates. Worse the US production data looks fake/manipulated and the reality is likely not as good as it seems. We might have to suffer more inflation for a year or two.
The goal is to keep prices high, to eventually drain as many people of their wealth. All shortages are made up, but it provides cover for the actual agenda of relieving people of the property and savings.
I'm in a similar position, no credit cards, no car loans and I paid off my house in 2023. The bit at the end really nails it, a little sacrifice today will go a long way in the future. Solid advice, thanks for sharing this wisdom.

HS teacher of 45 years here . . .same school. My graduating seniors (regular English--not advanced, AP, Honors . . . just schleps) are all taking a 'gap year' and travelling to Europe. Average area, routine suburbia, large HS, nothing special . . . . they are just all going to spend thousands and thousands at age 18, then come back and half (national statistics) will live in Mom and Dad's basement until they are 40. No . . . not a 'get off my lawn' guy here . . . just 45 years of experience and a large perspective on the changing ethics of this new generation of Americans.
I applaud the younger generation for standing up and demanding a decent work-life balance and realizing that life should be more than working, paying bills and dying. Plus, this outdated mindset that you are only considered successful if you work 9-5/Monday-Friday, get married, buy a house, start a family, etc…it’s time that people realize that this isn’t for everyone and it doesn’t define success or happiness
Never I would make a holiday trip on debt. For decades I made no vacation at all, yes and I still live :) These holiday trips are totally overvalued. Make a few daytrips in the surroundings, take a a nice meal, and sleep in the night in your own comfy bed instead of paying 150 or 250 a night in hotel.
No, i wouldn't say so. I have seen some countries of the world now I am not interested in this anymore so much. I have my hobbies and i'm quite happy with this. But everybody as he likes.
And we got paid beans and basically all of us went to college/university.... it was a 'who you know' not 'what you know' world we entered with opportunities harder to come by and everything way more expensive.
They always pass taxes obey consumers, that's just a fact. They couldn't be in business otherwise. However, price-gouging is a thing, and Democrats have retired to pass bills that would investigate and stop it, but they were blocked by republicans. Look it up. republicans then went on TV to complain that Democrats "weren't doing anything" about inflation. And when they were called out about it, republicans said there was something in the bill they didn't like. However, they have The House, and even if they didn't, they have the power to put forward bills themselves and/or to tweak ones Democrats put forward. But republicans have not. If they wanted to, they would. Democrats just finally got one passed, but I haven't looked into it yet, and it might not affect us for a while either.
@@--Morpheus--But all companies have always had to recoup costs, otherwise they couldn't exist. It's the ones who are going overboard, taking unfair advantage of us. Look this up, that Democrats tried to pass measures that would investigate and put a stop to the gouging, but we're blocked by republicans. republicans could put forth bills themselves so their excuse about Democrats not doing anything, or that they didn't like the bill isn't good enough. If republicans had done something other than investigate Biden and not find anything that enabled them to impeach him, then I'd at least give them that as then maybe having a point. But they didn't. It's Democrats who tried. Look it up for yourself, don't trust me. Prove it to yourself.
As a retired I baby boomer, I learned in grade school I needed to plan for my future. Spending a little extra time studing and planning paid off by getting better grades, more knowledge in the fields that pays went a long way. Learning to managing financial which they don't teach in school goes a long way.
From the age of 18 all the way until 2019 I always took a vacation. Most of the time it was an hour away or the next state, but it was that one week a year I could turn off all my thi gs and relax and reset. I haven't been anywhere since 2019. I'd love to go vactioning again. But I refuse to put it on credit, my hope is by next year, I'll be set for Montana. I've been wanting to go there my whole life. I didn't know how these young people were driving nice cars, vacationing in ritzy spots, and having designer clothes. After watching channels like this I see its all on credit. Bless you if read this, I wish you the best for 2024 and less stress on your life.
I remember about 4 years ago ? Example : a 32 ounce gatorade was about $2.00...Then one day I realised that although the bottle was the same size, there was only 28 ounces in it....for $2.50.
This is a great example of charging a higher price for even less product than before the pandemic. I find myself saying today’s sale price was last year’s regular price about so many things every time I go shopping for the last few years. I say it again and again every year since Covid. How long can this go on for? Companies are shrinking sizes again with the new round of “lower prices” on the horizon. I only buy Gatorade when it’s on sale at the grocery store and I usually buy Powerade nowadays because it’s on sale more often. The prepping crowd had it right all along albeit for different reasons.
I am a boomer. Our parents and grandparents all told us you have nothing to show for a trip, once it's over. Good advice then and good advice now. Vacations were spent camping or renting a cabin on a lake. Or maybe, visiting relatives out of state.
I disagree. See the world and see it from a different perspective is what is needed to get out of this stale and hateful mindset a lot of Americans have. There’s more than one way to do life.
The airports will begin to look like mosoleums when the credit card junkies blow their limit of borrowing. They are still packing the airports. Over 70 percent are paycheck to paycheck. So this observation lends further proof that everything you're saying is spot on.
I was born in 1984. I haven’t gone on vacation since 2015. Paying down debt and did a staycation to fix some things around the house. My car is from 2010 and is paid off. Trying to live within our means and reduce debt to be in a better financial spot by the end of next year. It takes discipline and going without to be free.
A person without debt is a rich person! I live in the Midwest...house and 5 acres paid for check...vehicle paid for check...defined retirement pension check....savings check...lowkey non-millionaire check.... I am feeling the inflation....but will survive through it much better than some who think debt is a acceptable.
Only thing that will slow inflation is people not buying stuff they don’t need. I rarely ever buy anything extra unless it’s for my kids that’s about it.

Yup. I really don’t get it. Statistically over and over again it was shown that not only did productivity not suffer it actually increased The price of gas not to mention the time you lose getting too and from work the money for the so called office work clothes more cars on the road more pollution more traffic more stress Just don’t get it
Need to bail out commercial real estate by making people suffer for lower productivity. Fact is business owners have never paid for people transportation to the work place so as a result they expect their workers to pay insane rent in local area to subsidize the crooked landlords or drive hours wasting time and productivity to get to work. Fact is going into work is actually causing lower productivity because of high rent. Eg high rent causes lower productivity by definition
I just went to Wendy's for a combo meal and they charged me 50 cents for 5 catsup packets. 10 cents each.. They just lost this customer.. No more Wendy's for me or my extended family.

“If the American people allow private banks to control the issue of money, first by inflation, and then by deflation, the banks and corporations that grow up around them will deprive the people of their property until their children will wake up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered.” - Thomas Jefferson.

@@psychokitty7268 It’s because certain media outlets (Ruper Murdoch) beginning with Rush Limbaugh years ago, have pitted Americans against each other.

And even worse, most Americans haven’t even read the constitution in years, so they are easily swept away by the swirl.
I'm concentrating on paying DOWN a credit card and paying DOWN my house and adding to savings in the process. Now lets see how many will downright demand their cc debts be eliminated by the gubmint. 🙄🙄
My house is paid off. Make sure to keep adequate cash reserves. Getting out of debt is great provided you leave yourself the ability to deal with an emergency (like a job loss). If I had to do it all again I would accumulate money into a separate account and pay lump sum payments as I was able. Preserve cash reserves.
@@lilymcnabb6621 Been retired for over 10 years, bought our house using our SSDI income, CAN write a $1k check and adding to it every month for emergencies.
Used an SSDI income to buy this house, The principal on my mortgage is only $125 a month @ 2.875%. Just paying $40 more a month knocked years off the life of the mortgage already in 3 years. Paying far more on principal and far LESS on interest. Each COLA we add another $10 a month, if the COLA for 25 is 2% or below, I'll toss most of that onto my principal, add the rest to savings. I can comfortably write a $1k check in the event of an emergency which gets $100 added to it each month.
I charged 3k groceries this year. Never before but this year My grandson was unemployed. i Was ashamed to not afford the cash to buy his groceries.

Unemployment hurts his manliness.
