    To combat the negative effect of inflation, it’s a good idea to diversify your portfolio across different asset classes, such as stocks, bonds, and real estate, since this can help protect your portfolio against inflation. I’ve heard testimonies of people accruing over $550k during recessions

    Depending on what you spend your money on.. INFLATION IS PROBABLY HIGHER THAN 7.1% FOR YOU! A 7.1% CPI means cash is losing 50% of its buying power every 10 years. If you’re not investing your money, delayed gratification will do nothing to help you financially. Saving your money instead of investing it means your wealth is being transferred to people who own assets.

    As a college student back in the 80's I learned in Economics 101 the principle of scarcity. Economic resources are limited(finite) however, human wants & desires are unlimited(infinite). Therefore, it is our responsibility to bridge the gap. Isn't that what we call budgeting & living within our means. You mentioned how our current life is the outcome of 5 decisions we've made in the last 5 years or so. That should be a wake-up call for the 30 & 40 something who are at the peak of their earning years. For the Gen Xers like me, I would say that my current life right now is the totality of ALL the decisions I've made in life so far. As Grandpa used to say, keep it steady. Mistakes & failures will be made along the way; no one's perfect. Question is how you're going to handle it. Learn from others & don't do stupid stuff. Education is great- it becomes your tool later in life.
    But all that education is useless without execution, so decision-making is far superior.

    Most of what was said in this clip/podcast was spot on. Tough times are ahead and people should save (and many are not). I've watched several CZcams videos where people go to Vegas and drop $3K over a weekend. OMG. That is almost a paycheck for me. Imagine if you get laid off/let go from your job. What are you going to do?
    Here is the area where Patrick (and Tom - although he didn't say anything this time) contradict themselves. At 7:03 Patrick talks about this horrible atrocity the working man has committed by "bullying" their boss for more money over the last couple of years. Patrick - you're an entrepreneur. It's called supply and demand. If you're hiring a peon employee for Valuetainment or your insurance company (when you had it) and in the interview they say they want $100K/year and your budget for the position is $135 are you going to give them $135K? No. If anything you're going to try to snag them at $90-95. Isn't that capitalism? Isn't that negotiation? Why is this ok when a company does it but not when the working man does it? If you have a company, that produces widgets and can only produce 1,000 widgets per month and you have a regular customer that buys them at $1 per unit and then you have a new customer offer you $2 per widget (and he has the money and has a stable customer) what is wrong at selling to the new customer at $2 and shedding the old one? Isn't that the nature of supply and demand and the capitalist system you decree the virtues of? If Patrick, back when he was selling insurance, only had resources to sell 100 policies a day and had old time customers he could sell at $1000 a policy and then new customers approached him saying they were willing to pay $2,000 per policy guess who would get the insurance? That's right - he would drop the old customers and sell to the new ones willing to fork out $2,000 per policy. Why is it wrong when the common man/employee takes advantage of the system but not an entrepreneur/capitalist/company? Also - most companies - when you are with them for a number of years don't give you pay raises consummate with the experience you gain. If they hire a person, with the same experience as you (assuming you are an experienced person) from the outside (and you have never left your company or been there for a long time) chances are the new person will be making a material amount more than you. If you ask your boss about this, and ask him for a raise to bring you up to the level of your newly hired coworker, chances are he will not match the salary. In that case you not leaving is you not working supply and demand/capitalism/putting yourself first. Also, how many loyal employees, who dedicated themselves to the company and didn't leave get retained by a company when the company realizes they can outsource the job or automate it? The answer - very few if any. Again - the question remains - why is it wrong for an employee to jump ship for more $ when a company will cut you in a second if they can procure the services you provide for a cheaper price (or determine they don't need you)?

You can tell he has a personal issues with this. Maybe a lot of his employees asked him for raises and he wasn't thrilled. "Bullying" employers. Really? "You know who you are".

    Did the report say why they thought that the spending was people going out more and not inflation squeezing the lower middle class and below into spending more? I'm not aware of the situation in America but similar stats are popping up in the UK at the moment because people are having to use more of their savings on essential bills due to inflation. Also, the millennials on 100k that are broke trope is overplayed. 99% of the people on 100k young are those in Silicon Valley who have to compete with others on way more which makes rent in those areas sky high leading to them spending most of their 100k just to have a place to live.

One can only work so much without neglecting personal responsibilities at home. Money seems to evaporate as soon as I get it and the only investments that I feel AT ALL comfortable with dumping my precious few extra dollars into are the things we need to survive, the things that keep going up in cost. Food, medicine, water containment/filtration, heat fuel, gas for generators/vehicles, BULLETS, stuff like that. I just can't fathom being in a position to where I am set on all those things enough to where I can afford to potentially burn wealth on the stock market, crypto or any of that other digitalized stuff. I like tangible investments that I can put my hands on. I've had a lot of wise old men tell me, if I can't put my hands on it in 15 minutes, then I don't own it. I feel inclined to agree with them, especially as we get deeper into this weird, complex, confusing new digital world we are living in. Maybe I'm just old-fashioned.

If you’ve been around and working for more than a handful of years and have an average intellect; you’ll start to see the evolution in companies, thoughts, patterns, and procedure. What’s old is new again. People can and do adjust to change, the pace of change is what has fundamentally changed. Furthermore, everyone is saying you have to go faster and have to have more and better; AND we’ve invented a new way to do $ and your going to be left behind blah blah. Find a truly wealthy and intelligent person, and you’ll see that the vast overwhelming majority don’t act fast or reckless and their lives don’t generally “evolve” after the first million. Additionally, once you have wealth your life slows down instead of the opposite. People that make 100,000 $1 and $5 dollar mistakes generally never have the opportunity to make 1 $100,000 dollar mistake.

For myself I am spending money on things I know I will need to buy in the future before inflation jacks the prices up as I know my pay is not likely to increase again at the level of inflation anyway. With these high interest rates and how I personally see business slowing down on black friday; perhaps the economy will slump and inflation will also flatten out? Example I am saving money to buy a back up car now as my only car just hit 200k miles. I have no plans to sale my car. I have no plans to sale anything for that matter until inflation looks like it will stop.
