00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,440

00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: What are your thoughts on Bousy?

34
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 3: It's a commentary Boozy badass, another iconic class love get that?

35
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,120
Speaker 4: What are your thoughts or words today? Comment terry that

36
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 4: America is the brocus has ever been. You have to

37
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:13,239
Speaker 4: change your lifestyle and companies have to layoff thousands of workers.

38
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:18,200
Speaker 1: So is America as brocused? Is that even a word?

39
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 1: I'm not sure? But is America as brocused as it's

40
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 1: ever been?

41
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:26,560
Speaker 3: Of course, Boosey is not an economist by any stretch

42
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 3: of the imagination, but.

43
00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: Thank you for the disclaimer.

44
00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, and he's not an iconic class like our guest

45
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 3: is coming on. But it's interesting when I see Cardi

46
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 3: talk about politics, Boosey talk about the economy. I do

47
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 3: feel there's a titan is America in the worst financial

48
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 3: shape has ever been in I don't think so, but

49
00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 3: I will say things are a lot tighter, like GDP

50
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 3: fel one point six percent in Q one compared to

51
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:01,480
Speaker 3: three point four percent last year. Even the fall of

52
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 3: Tesla over the last two months has been reflective. Apple

53
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 3: being down has been reflective. Retail sales are not as

54
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 3: amazing as they should or could be. But I do

55
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 3: think things are tighter for people. Even when I'm talking

56
00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 3: to people offline and the occasional time I may ride

57
00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 3: past Walmart Rashott, I'm not going in.

58
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:20,519
Speaker 1: I may go to park day.

59
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 3: When I'm talking to people, They're like, Hey, why isn't

60
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 3: the money flowing? And that's why I always say less

61
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 3: than to go to the M two money supply, Like

62
00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 3: we printed money so fast in twenty twenty that now

63
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 3: when we have reverted back to the mean of the

64
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 3: money that's available, it's not as much money available if

65
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 3: you are in the middle class, like really now one ten,

66
00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 3: one hundred and twenty thousand is middle class, and we

67
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 3: were growing up like one hundred grand was the goal.

68
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 3: So I think there's been a major adjustment in the economy.

69
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 3: Hopefully things get better over the next year or two.

70
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:57,840
Speaker 3: But I don't think it's the Brooks we've ever been.

71
00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 3: But I think it's the Titus has been properly over

72
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,279
Speaker 3: the last six or seven years, especially for African American communities.

73
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 2: I think it's interesting that he has a perspective on

74
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 2: it because he could be talking.

75
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 1: About a lot of the other things that have no substance.

76
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: So that's a great point.

77
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 2: Right, This brings awareness to a topic that is vidently important,

78
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 2: and so I understood it because it could feel.

79
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,719
Speaker 1: Like that right in our communities.

80
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 2: If you ask people when they go to the supermarket,

81
00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:26,479
Speaker 2: does it cost more?

82
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:27,919
Speaker 1: Yes, how it does.

83
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 2: If you talk to people about has their credit card

84
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 2: debt increase because the interest rates have gone on dramatically,

85
00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 2: they can feel that are they able to finance a

86
00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 2: car loan it's costing more? So yes, it feels that way. Statistically,

87
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 2: it's not the case if we're and you said one

88
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,919
Speaker 2: hundred thousand. If you look at statistically, America and some

89
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 2: other power in countries, the level of wealth has grown

90
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 2: since twenty twenty. I think America in twenty twenty had

91
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 2: seven point six millionaires yep to make twenty three. That

92
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,680
Speaker 2: number has grown to twenty twenty two million, which is

93
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 2: six percent of the population in the country, and so the.

94
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:11,119
Speaker 1: Wealth has grown.

95
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 2: I don't know if the middle class is at one

96
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 2: hundred thousand anymore. I feel like one hundred thousand. I

97
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 2: mean that you might just be grey. Give it, it

98
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 2: might be, it might be break even. So I understood

99
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 2: why you said it. I'm more impressed about the consciousness

100
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:29,599
Speaker 2: of the state of the economy because again he's right.

101
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:31,680
Speaker 2: If he's talking about people in this you can feel it.

102
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:34,840
Speaker 2: You hear inflation. This is something that again wasn't brought up,

103
00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:36,840
Speaker 2: but you know, you hear the word inflation. What does

104
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,840
Speaker 2: that mean? And now people are looking at it and

105
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 2: feeling the effects of it. So it's understandable to have

106
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,919
Speaker 2: that sentiment, which makes it even more important shows like

107
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 2: this Being educated and around the topic of financial education

108
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,320
Speaker 2: is so important so that you're not left out when

109
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,840
Speaker 2: we're talking about it feels it. It feels like, no, you're

110
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,360
Speaker 2: on the other end of that, Right, you've educated yourself,

111
00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 2: you've invested, You're starting to be part of that that

112
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 2: trajectory that's upwards when we're talking about wealth creation.

113
00:06:02,839 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 3: To both of you, do you think that the printing

114
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,159
Speaker 3: of the money in twenty twenty was the cost for

115
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:11,359
Speaker 3: the increase for the additional millionaires that were produced, or

116
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 3: do you think there was some other factors that played

117
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 3: a significant.

118
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:14,480
Speaker 1: Role in that.

119
00:06:16,279 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I feel that it's a variety of different things,

120
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 4: but I feel that inflation goes into play, and I

121
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:30,359
Speaker 4: feel that it's actually I actually feel the opposite of

122
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 4: what he said. He said in America's the Brocus has

123
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 4: ever been. I actually feel like this is the most money.

124
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:41,000
Speaker 4: This is the more people have money now than ever before.

125
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 4: And this is me, This is not just me from

126
00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,359
Speaker 4: my personal perspective, This is me talking to other people

127
00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:48,159
Speaker 4: in different areas. I talked to a contractor and he

128
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:50,760
Speaker 4: said that he's never seen people with this much money,

129
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,600
Speaker 4: people paying four hundred thousand dollars just to get their.

130
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,680
Speaker 1: Addict done in cash.

131
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 4: Right, We've never seen so many people buying properties in

132
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:04,360
Speaker 4: cash over asking right. Cars, You couldn't you can't even

133
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 4: asking right. You can't buy a Mercedes Benz right now,

134
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:11,679
Speaker 4: Like you know this, you got to wait six months

135
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 4: for a g Wagon. Like there's so many different things

136
00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:17,800
Speaker 4: that it's the tale of two economies.

137
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 1: That's a great point.

138
00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 4: The richer getting richer while the poor is getting poor.

139
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:27,560
Speaker 4: So he's speaking from one aspect of it, but from

140
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 4: the overall general sense of the economy, I don't think

141
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 4: that there's ever been a time but there's been this

142
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 4: much money that's been flowing and it's been happening for Yeah,

143
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 4: like you said, you know, pumping money into the economy.

144
00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,240
Speaker 4: But then you know, real estate values have skyrocketed. That's

145
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 4: helped a lot of people's wealth. Stock prices have skyrocketed.

146
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 4: That's helped a lot of people's wealthy some crypto that's

147
00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 4: helped a lot of people starting businesses, a lot of entrepreneurs,

148
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,360
Speaker 4: especially in the tech space, and those businesses have taken off.

149
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 4: That's that's helped skyrocket a lot of people's wealth.

150
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,640
Speaker 1: So yeah, I.

151
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 4: Kind of look at it from a different standpoint. But

152
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:16,560
Speaker 4: this is why it's vitally important to make relationships and

153
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:22,640
Speaker 4: to educate yourself, right because if you the next five

154
00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 4: years are probably going to be the most important time

155
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 4: in our generation and potentially human history. So if you're

156
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,920
Speaker 4: not on the winning side of this coin, the losing

157
00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 4: side of this coin looks very dire, right because you

158
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 4: look at over two hundred million jobs globally taking out

159
00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,959
Speaker 4: from AI right when you look at the price of

160
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 4: real estate is going to keep going up. Inflation, everything

161
00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 4: is going to go up. And we know that even

162
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 4: if you have a job, jobs usually stay the same

163
00:08:58,520 --> 00:08:59,959
Speaker 4: as far as the amount of money that they're being

164
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 4: especially jobs that don't require extremely higher education. So you're

165
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 4: going to become priced out to the point where not

166
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 4: only can you not even buy a home, but you

167
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,079
Speaker 4: can't even afford the rent. So now you're going to

168
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,600
Speaker 4: have to have roommates. Now you're going to have to have,

169
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 4: you know, car pooling to even have a car. This

170
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:24,199
Speaker 4: is something that I don't want to be a doomsday

171
00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 4: situation here, but is vitally important. So that's why you

172
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 4: have to watch market mondays, you have to watch and listen,

173
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 4: earn your Lisia, you have to go to invest FST

174
00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 4: get your tickets August twenty third to August twenty fifth,

175
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 4: Because it's not just what you know, it's also who

176
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:46,120
Speaker 4: you know, you know relationships are vitally important.

177
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 5: An illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child

178
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,839
Speaker 5: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from El Salvador

181
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 5: some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President

182
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 5: Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy Noman, the United States

Speaker 5: Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border

184
00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:18,040

185
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 5: one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you

186
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 5: are here illegally, your next you will be fine nearly

187
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 5: one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned, and deported. You will

188
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 5: never return. But if you register using our CBP home

189
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,439
Speaker 5: app and leave now, you could be allowed to return legally.

190
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 5: Do what's right. Leave now. Under President Trump, America's laws,

191
00:10:41,720 --> 00:10:44,160
Speaker 5: border and families will be protected.
