- Even though on the surface, these red hot jobs reports and relatively low unemployment look good to the fed and our government there's a lot happening beneath the surface that they could care less to look into. As long as these headline figures come out looking OK they'll just keep on saying the economy is great.

U might be right
As an investor it’s awesome. Started to get great under Trump. My taxes are nearly non existent, and my rates of return are 17% yoy. Cry about it. 😂
Yep
lmaoooo realtors?
@@ShaggyRodgers420How classy. We'd all expect nothing less.
The economy is not booming. My jaw dropped to the floor when yesterday I received an email that my Home Insurance will go up from $640 to $1200 ... I literally cried. Sick of this bullshit.
If you had a claim you might expect that your rates would rise.However, insurance company's costs are escalating and like most business will past the costs to the consumer.

Inflation is booming
I quit my job on march 21. It was night shift, it made my life miserable. I saved 2 months salary and started applying. I turned in over 100 applications and cover letters. My references were contacted so many times. I finally start my new job jul 15. And my new job is from a previous employer, who just happened to know i was unemployed and called me up. I have a college degree in business management- i have 25 years experience in my field. The job hunt was SO demoralizing! It was so rough to be rejected over and over again.
Why you have to lie you got hire first or second interview it was so easy - it’s easy for anybody and everyone to have jobs lots and lots of jobs and there are no liars or bait and switch companies, that’s just foo foo talk lol - via the unemployed dude
I was laid off in Feb 2023. Still looking.
Keep going forward brother! Things will play out
@Jeepon35sBecome a teacher. You can go through a special program.
I feel you brother, my hunt was not as bad but I understand the demoralization! Also I have a new baby so that made it worse. Glad we both landed something.
They fire a full time worker and hire 3 part time workers. What a scam
True. More low quality part time jobs and dressing them as full time jobs
That employer loves part timers because they can pay them less AND pay no benefits.
HR should be first on the fire list.
Really, they are mostly undesirables who got their position by knowing someone.
Then they act like they are on your side, then the next minute you are being called in for a meeting,
yea a full time worker making 40 an hour and hire 3 new at 17......at 20 hours a week max.
Vote for candidates that support workers unions
people didn’t take me seriously when i said these job postings are a scam and these people aren’t actually hiring anyone. and this was years ago. seems like nobody’s laughing anymore. this shyt should be illegal.
I truly believe they are working with the government to make things look good when it comes to this crappy economy.
But in the real world we know better.
I totally agree. I am in the same boat.
That’s how they count the jobs, great economy with bidenomic
You are correct those companies are not hiring at all..... even though they have signs up....I saw this in 2021.......
Yep I encountered that back in 2013. Lots of jobs, and when you contact them, they say oh, collecting resumes, someone might be leaving, or old add just never took it down.
Our economy struggling with uncertainties, housing issues, foreclosures, global fluctuations, and pandemic aftermath, causing instability. Rising inflation, sluggish growth, and trade disruptions need urgent attention from all sectors to restore stability and stimulate growth.
Things are strange right now. The US dollar is becoming less valuable because of inflation, and other powerful nations waking up to trade in their own currencies. Good thing is, a lot of people still turn to the Dollar because of the safety is somehow assures. I'm worried about my retirement savings of about $420,000 losing value because of these factors and more. Where else can we keep our money?
It's a delicate season now, so you can do little or nothing on your own. Hence I’ll suggest you get yourself a financial expert that can provide you with valuable financial information and assistance
Very true! I've been able to scale from $50K to $189k in this red season because my Financial Advisor figured out Defensive strategies which help portfolios be less vulnerable to market downturns
Mind if I ask you to recommend this particular coach you using their service?
Carol Vivian Constable is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment..
Inflation and recession are currently wreaking havoc on America. The worst aspect of this crisis is that consumers are accruing credit card debt. Credit card debt rose 20% in April alone, while interest rates have doubled in a year. Customers are going into debt to purchase basic necessities due to severe inflation. The collapse has undoubtedly begun.
Every day brings new challenges. It has become the new norm. We thought it was a disaster at first, but now we realize it's the new normal to which we must adapt. This year will be a year of great economic hardship for the country. What initiatives can we take to earn additional revenue during this period of quantitative adjustment? I can't afford for my hard-earned $200k to fall to dust.
Another reason I enjoy my day-to-day market decisions is that I'm being guided by a portfolio coach, seeing that their entire skill set is built around going long and short at the same time, both employing profit-oriented strategy and laying off risk as a hedge against the inevitable downtrends, coupled with the exclusive information/analysis, it's quite impossible not to
My partner has been considering going the same route; could you please share more information about the advisor who guides you?
"Becky Lou Gordon" is her name. She is recognized as a genius in her field and works for Empower Financial Services. She is well-known in her field; look her up.
I just looked her up on the web and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I will write her an email shortly.
My sister has been applying for 300 jobs over the last 1 .5 yrs. And 3 interviews and no hires. She is in IT and has a Masters degree . She has moved in with me. She is very discouraged. I said the same thing. These companies are full of 💩.
You can thank Joe Biden and the democrats for this economy. If you want to see the economy improve please vote Republican.
@@lisagardner903 I'm no fan of Biden, but how do you rationalize that Biden did this?
The shutdowns, PPP loans, and printing $8 Trillion did this.
Trump appointed Powell and he set rates to 0.25%
Biden's largest fault was that he exacerbated inflation with student loan forgiveness promises.
Trump was a major part of this problem. Not to mention his continuation of Obama's sanctions in South America and Asia that he tripled down on.
@@lisagardner903not going to change
I quit my job as an HVAC tech and had a new job in 2 days. In total I had about 10 job offers including recruiters contacting me.
Nobody with a real degree or actual skills has a problem finding a good paying job. If it isn't STEM, it isn't a real degree.
A masters degree but cant run 2 miles.
Master of nothing...
*If in your 50's, it's impossible to get a job even with a sales, mortgage broker background yet the government expects people to work up to the age of 70.*
YES no wants to Hire you a SUE Job. My sister ran into that BUT true ..
Only 67
no many people taking out mortgages these days
@@autumnfragrance6326Not if the Republicans have their way....they plan to raise the age to *at least* 70, with some Republican senators wanting to do away with Social Security altogether. Every time I post this information, even though it is accurate and there is video of them saying as much, it gets taken down. It IS what the Republicans plan to do but they don't want us talking about that during an election year. Vote blue!!
totally understand I was a owner operator of a auto smog and general repair and real estate broker did loans and tons of experience across the board been there and done that and still no job so I say screw it and do it my self forever but so many of my family think the job market is great and easy to get and Im the problem not the employer although they continue to fire hire and merry go round with one of my past employers in automotive
A local church was giving away food today and the line of cars was close to a 1/2 a mile long. Small businesses like restaurants and bars are empty after 9 pm and the streets are all but deserted. I have never seen it this bad in my 60 years of life. So many are drowning their sorrows in cheap beer and drugs. A chain of convenience stores is selling four natural light, 25-ounce tall boys for $5 and the clerk at one told me that they sell so much of it that they usually run out around 8 pm. I don't know this miserable world anymore.
My boy say tall boys 😂😂 👍🏾 keep your head up man we will save America
So they buy all the tall cans by 8pm but by 9pm the streets are dead
Cheap poison beer to downpour sorrow in!
Same down here in South Texas.
Seem many learned nothing from the Great Recession/housing crash and 2020 shutdown.
In these uncertain times, it's more important than ever to have a solid understanding of how to manage your finances, invest wisely and navigate economic downturns. But my primary concern is how to grow my reserve of $240k which has been sitting duck since forever with zero to no gains, sure I'm all in on the long term game, but with my savings are lying waste to inflation and my portfolio losing gains everyday, I need a remedy.
If you need advice, consider speaking with a financial advisor. Don't get me wrong, you can do it on your own, but financial advisors have a lot more knowledge and expertise in this area.
you are completely right, Advisors have information and paths that are not disclosed to the public.. I profited $560k in 2023 under the tutelage of my Fiduciary-counselor. Am I selling? Absolutely not.. I am going to sit back and observe how this all plays out.
How can I reach this advisers of yours? because I'm seeking for a more effective investment approach on my savings?
'Sharon Ann Meny' is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment
Thank you for the recommendation. I'll send her an email, and I hope I'm able to reach her.
There is no justifiable reason to have an applicant return three times to interview for the same job. It sounds to me as though management is simply justifying their existence with an endless search for the "perfect" candidate. So wrong to use people that way- people in desperate need for work. Time is money and how cruel to put people through this sharade when there really is no job.
There are way too many people in the hiring process.
Job market sucks right now!!! Never seen it this bad. They are LYING!
Agreed! Tech is the worst I've ever seen it.
Blame the corporations; they're the ones giving the FED bad data.
It's unemployment insurance fraud. They create ghost jobs so they can pump up their (employment to job vacancy) that they provide to each state.
This allows them to tout 'big job numbers' and get a tax-deduction towards the state unemployment fund.
HR are given directions to perform 'interview' quotas so that the state can't prosecute them for fraud.
On top of that, the economy sucks.
The job market has always been bad for some people.
@@JennyShullstop
I have found it is great very easy to get a good job. You need to remember 5-6 million are hired each month.
2020 - laid off
2021 - laid off
2022 - laid off
2023 / now - hired as full time, but only given part time.
I am so sick of applying for jobs.
It’s not lack of skills.
You should look at what you are doing wrong.
@@josefj1776Companies get a big project they over hire. When the job is over with in 6-9 months they do massive lay offs. I was laid off in November a licensed electrician. I was told they would hire me in Jan. I've had 2 jobs since but those people are exploiting their workers making them work two to three men jobs alone in a dangerous field. I had a job for 8 years before COVID. You know nothing Jose!
maybe its time to up your skills ... its all a webconnection away
I am tired of applying for jobs as well, I started working through a temp agency for right now. It’s better than nothing and beats applying for jobs all day everyday
Retired & worked for Lowe’s: Lowe’s strategy is to keep 98% of all employees part-time, with this they avoid having to provide benefits and laying off people. Instead of layoffs where they would have to pay for unemployment they just reduce your hours to nothing so you leave.
On the other hand, low-wage jobs might be a good fit for a healthy retiree who just wants something to do part time. Retirees don't need the benefits.
That should be illegal to do that!
@@fazdoll Cousin did that Lots of $$$ But Nutthing to Do..😁😁😁😁
In most states if your hours are reduced you can claim unemployment.
I worked at the lowes in Richmond IN, awful place to work
My neighbor has three jobs. I was talking with him about his schedule, dude is burnt out. Have a great weekend everyone 🍻
I do the same. Not burnt out. Money is fun.
I only have and need one job to pay my bills.
@@shirtlesslagerWorking three jobs is good for the short-term. Long-term it's not healthy, but hey, as long as you're able to keep doing it, then go for it.
Glad I never had wife or kids
@@mikesmith6461 Regret the wife, but not the kids. My adult sons are awesome humans.
My husband has a friend that immigrated here to work in a semiconductor manufacturing company about 15 years ago. As soon as he got full citizenship last year he was fired and replaced by an Indian that was fresh off the boat
uh huh well theirs your proof of what this open border is all about. Biden is appeasing the big corporations.
Your friends story will inspire people to immigrate the proper way 😂
Wtf
Deserved
And they flex on the ones that get laid off. They have no idea or just don't care about the people they replaced that worked hard to get where they are. They use meritocracy to bait and then get rid of the position and refill it with bureaucratic corruption.
I am content with my current position as a Head Custodian. Throughout my life, I have faced numerous obstacles and exclusion due to my educational background, social status, and the nature of my work. However, I have chosen to disregard these challenges and take pride in my blue-collar occupation. I am immensely proud of my life and the accomplishments I have achieved.
Ultimately, my primary objective is to ensure my own satisfaction and contentment in my work. Therefore, I am profoundly grateful for the opportunity to be gainfully employed in a job that I genuinely enjoy.
A custodian? Isn’t that a man who cleans floors in schools or businesses?
I spent 17 years as one, nothing wrong with doing that work.
Awesome! Congratulations on your achievements and taking pride in your work!
any job lasting w decent pay and you can handle
that is good job fir yoy

In Oct '23 our entire staff was let go from a production studio. By year's end, still no resume response, I'm wrapping pots to make extra money during the holidays. The lady across from me says her husband doesn't like her working, but things with her husband's construction company have been dead. She said they put in 34 estimates, not one phone call. 4 months later and 100's of applications later, I'm down to my last dollars before my rent and all my bills push me on to the street into a car that I won't afford the insurance for. I got hired at another digital studio, two weeks later with $100 in my account I get my first paycheck right at the time the eclipse happened. Still hanging on, but I'll tell you the job market is an empty blizzard right now. For every lead, there's 100 people firing off resumes within an hour. It feels like throwing darts at the wall. Saving as much as I can. I don't take this one for granted, and pray it lasts. Best of luck out there.
If I had to guess, I'd say over 70% of "job postings" are not actually open or just a scam and waste of time. No one is hiring except fast food and grocery stores.
Yup
McDonalds needs to hire cashiers.

Interviewed 60 times! I believe it , too many companies put perspective employees thru hell!

The job market is being propped by people working 2 low wage jobs. And people who have careers can’t find jobs. I have a few friends who have been laid off more than 6 months and they can’t find anything. Many of these postings are not even real!!
Me too
That way we point the finger at the victim - "Its your fault that you lost your job" "Its your fault that you got laid off or a robot replaced you" It's your fault that you became homeless"
Just posted something similar. Good sources estimate 40%+ jobs listings are fake.
You should have paid attention in school.
I use my skills to work, no boss, but here goes: DUMB DOWN YOUR CV. College graduate? Lie that you are a high school dropout. "They" won't hire educated people. Trust me on this.
Last job I got took over 200 online applications to get 3 interviews. The VAST majority of those just kept getting deleted and then reposted a few days later. Just an enormous amount of bot-like behavior. So frustrating
5:34 yep! My wife applied for over 50 jobs within 3 months and was denied every one of them. The reasons: over-qualified, under-qualified, and flat-out ignored and given no reason. She has a strong solid work history, great references, immaculate background record, etc. So she eventually said screw it and gave up looking for about 6 months. Then stumbled upon an open position at the daycare our child was going to and is now working there for pennies on the dollar compared to what she was making. So....what's the deal?
A lot of job postings online are really scams just to get your information. They then sell it too overseas companies
How awful 😞 So sorry
Thanks for the info
What’s her profession?
Dollar ponzi system
If they told us the truth we would stop spending.
Thats the very last thing they want. The economy is on cpr.

I have stopped spending on everything. We have clothes, lots brand new for every season.
Our furniture looks good even though it's old because it's always covered with a sheet (so much cooler than the hot fabric)
Our cars although old and no ac get us where we need to go.
We rent a cheap cheap house and don't have house envy.
No restaurant food, even fast food.
No credit card debt.

Can confirm.
I've been unemployed for over 3 months. I'm a 15 year military vet. I don't have a criminal record, I can pass a drug test, I have 20 years of work history and have applied to over 50 jobs. If I'm not getting any offers, I can't imagine how other people are struggling.
I have a friend who has been applying for jobs since 15 years old, now 19. She showed me the amount of job applications on both indeed and linkedin, i couldn’t believe when i saw 1,526 Job applications. At that point i decided to help her get a job into trucking and now she is doing great. These big companies are full of 💩
Some are 1000 applications in (not joking, seriously 1000+ job apps) and still can’t get hired.

Depends where you want to live you can get a house with the salary you make. If you're pickly than can't tell people you can't get a house.
Definitely save your money. You will be glad you waited in a year or 2. I am currently looking to buy as well, and I see so many price cuts.
The government is in full mode smoke and mirrors for the presidential election. There are no foreclosures yet because they’re in forbearance. Homeowners have not been making mortgage payments in 2 years. Banks have a ton of non-performing commercial loans. Banks are in trouble. Inflation numbers are bogus. And of course, employment numbers are inflated and unreliable. Your gut instinct is most likely true!
With 25y cycle in home markets i would wait year or 2

Bro keep applying at least for part time or apply for summer jobs in February, but it's easy to get one at this age
How do you think I feel with a college degree, certifications, and years of experience... in a "booming and growing field" as well. I do over 10 applications a day, have not gotten a single interview, and only 0.5% of jobs send me a rejection email lol. HUNDREDS of applications and skill assessments over the past 2 months.
Try temp agencies bro

If she is going for a minimum wage job, she has to dumb down her resume.
That's another thing that's wrong with our US society. Calling people over qualified is just an idiot thing to say to avoid accountability.
Exactly! The same thing happened to me back when I graduated from college in 2004, but I didn't have any parents to go live with, but after so many rejections from the minimum wage jobs and low paying factories, I decided not check the college graduate box... and that's when I immediately began receiving callbacks for interviews. I just needed something to pay the rent until I could land that "career job". 😂
@@GreenTRC1 no bc you will run on the next opportunity
That’s what I kept thinking as he talked about her.
I would agree, I avoided over-qualified people, since they are taking the job while job searching. Cost of onboarding, including training isn't worth them leaving as soon as they can.
There's alot of companies posting "ghost jobs" No intention of hiring, just making it look that way.
I completed 2 tech courses and graduated with a tech certificate from a good university. I got a job in tech and got laid off 2 years ago. Since then I applied to 8000+ jobs, got into 100s of interviews, did free technical work (homeworks/assignments: which most of them were accurate too) for those who interviewed me, been through 5+ step interviews for many companies, made it till the final steps, was ashamed to bother my colleagues multiple times because those companies asked me to provide references. I have not got an offer since then. Outside of tech I have sales and business development experience for oil and gas and electrification, but nobody really calls for interview. Man I speak 6 languages, lived 30+ years abroad, have experience in many fields and Im so hungry to get a proper job but all they do is wasting your time with no results in the end.
I don’t understand and I don’t know how unemployment is 4 percent. The only thing that comes to my mind is because people have bills to pay and they uber or deliver food and etc and these part time contractor jobs are being counted as “jobs”.
Sorry to hear of your experience.

@@shirtlesslager. I agree. If you have skills get out there on Angie’s list and others. Self employment is a good option.
There is no longer a "relationship" between employers and employees. People are just numbers. Minimum wage employers only want to hire people part time and only people that will be happy never moving up in the job market. They don't want people who actually want to better themselves.
Only time you have that relationship are in some very small businesses with a low number of employees...... large corporations...... forget about it .......

That's a fact. Gregory Mannarino recently did an article in the Trends Journal exposing the fact that this inflation and high national debt is intentional, and that's why they pretend to fight it (to keep your confidence) Because the more debt a country accumulates, the stronger the central banks become. How far will they go until citizens take their governments back? My concern is...not soon enough

When my car broke down, instead of being able to afford to fix it, I had to deregister it and park it at my parent's house. Shortly after this, my girlfriend and I had to move in with her dad and step mom, because we simply couldn't make it on my income alone. My girlfriend has been on the job search for 6 months, and I lost my job when we moved because of the distance. She has had so many interviews all for nothing, and I haven't heard a single thing from any of the places I've applied for for almost a month. It really sucks.
These businesses do that just for the record. They have little to offer. Everyone has tightened down. Zero productivity because we dont make anything anymore.

I totally agree with you. My daughter is a very hard worker and will take the initiative to learn new needed skills on her own time. She was completely taken advantage of in her last job by being required to manage multiple teams and running multiple projects for low pay and no benefits. After, several years of being cheated, the owner bought a Rolls Royce for himself and a private chauffeur to drive him around which was ridiculous. She quit and he still calls her asking her to come back so he can cheat her a bit more! What a selfish turd!
Now she works on a contract in scientific research and development. However, they have had her on a private contract with no benefits for the last two years. She is taking on leaderships roles and has now obtained 2 international patents so she has proved her worth. She is hoping to be hired on next week but nothing is guaranteed any more. I worry a lot about her future. She is a very intelligent, hard working girl, but I worry she will just become discouraged and burned out if this continues.
At some point, who wouldn't? Thank God, I'm retired. I can't imagine what it must feel like to just try to make a living and pay rent. They're all selfish turds.

Or they’re simply postings to harvest resumes or personal data. A friend of mine got a follow email to a job posting he answered where the employer wanted him to fill up some survey where they were asking about SSI benefits. The company had the nerve to ask for his social security number? That’s illegal and he didn’t respond. 4 days later he got an email saying they were not moving forward with his candidacy. They didn’t get the form back. Had zero to do with his experience or any need they claim to have.
They’re also asking for people’s ages, sexual orientation and other illegal questions. Ridiculous.

My sister is a psychologist. When she graduated, she couldn’t really find work right away in her field. So she tried getting any job.

If you are a college graduate with real professional experience applying to minimum wage jobs and then get rejected, it’s because they deem you as “overqualified”.

Lowe's careers has a chat bot named Luci, if you respond yes to 3 basic questions the store MUST interview you. So for each position there are usually over 25 people interviewed which takes weeks, and sometimes they decide to put the position "on hold," and no one gets hired (full-time), you can barely get a part-time job there. Then the chat bot sends you a survey that asks, "how likely are you to shop at Lowe's after having the interview?" Makes me think its a marketing scheme to drive business, or to make people think their neighbors must be spending lots of money at Lowe's or they wouldn't be constantly hiring.
My grandma bought 5000 shares of Apple back in the early 90s. When she died she passed it on to my mom who's still holding. I had no idea until recently when I started investing and asked her what her portfolio was like. Boomers had it all 😩
5k shares of AAPL from the late 90’s, with all dividends reinvested, and assuming none was sold, would be worth well over $80 million today. 💰
@@joefunk76 it's just paper
That's nothing to do with being a boomer though - it just means she was astute enough to buy them. In 1994 Apple shares cost just 29 cents. I'm sure there are companies nowadays whose shares are cheap that will make lots of money in the future. It's just that most people spend more time researching where they are going to go on holiday or what car they want to buy than study investing.

My sister was a law professor in Florida after years as an assistant DA for 13 counties in FL. She took and passed the bar in 1996 in FL then worked at several firms and counties until 2016. The law school job she worked towards was a dream of hers. The school let a number of professors go. She was one. She has two kids and my parents had to help pay her mortgage as my brother in law was not making enough. This went on until she landed a job with the US Govt as a lawyer and they now live in PA. During the time she was let go…..about 2 years….she tried to get waitressing jobs, stocking shelves at retail stores etc. Nothing. This was in Florida with all the retail and restaurants!

I tried to explain this to people and they just don't seem to understand or don't want to understand... When you work you pay into unemployment insurance... When you are laid off or something happens where you have to go on unemployment It only lasts a certain amount of time another words, cash/ credit... Once you deplete your entitlement.. you're dropped from unemployment statistics.. that doesn't mean you got a job That's just means you're not receiving/ eligible for unemployment benefits any longer.. it is a smoke and mirrors illusion... So many people have lost their jobs and gone through (depleted) their unemployment benefits and now have been dropped; B UT they haven't gotten jobs! It's deceiving!!!! You think "oh only so many people are receiving unemployment benefits!" They're not counting the people that have used up their benefits and still don't have jobs.
Yeah, but do you even like nachos?
Exactly 💯
@moebanshee -- Pretty misleading to say the least, to only count unemployed if they're receiving unemployment benefits.
The employee doesn't pay unemployment insurance. Employers are the ones who pay it.
Employees AND employers pay into it.

It's unemployment insurance fraud. They create ghost jobs so they can pump up their (employment to job vacancy ratio) that they provide to each state.

I have over 10 years of experience working for State Employment agencies. The only explanation I can offer for people NOT getting the "good" jobs they're applying for is because at least 80% of the time that advertised job was ALREADY spoken for (via internal appointment or employee referral) BEFORE that job was even posted. Lastly, if it's a company that does any kind of business with government agencies, they are REQUIRED to publicly post jobs so that "everyday citizens" can apply. Many of us here are quite familiar with the phrase "It's not WHAT you know, but WHO you know."
