$100,000 a year is the new $39,000.
In 1990, a $100,000 salary had the same buying power as about $255,000 today.
Today, $100,000 buys what roughly $39,000 bought in 1990.
A six-figure salary isn’t what it used to be.

TRUMP coin is now down 98% from its peak.
A $10,000 investment at its peak would be worth $204 today.
Around 1 million wallets have now lost a combined $3.81 billion.
Why would anyone invest in this??

I’m convinced much of America’s $39.5 trillion national debt came from corruption, fraud, and waste.
Wasteful programs. Failed projects that burned billions. Trillions spent with little to show for it.
American taxpayers have been robbed.

The U.S. government is now adding about $35 billion to the deficit every week.
At the same time, it is spending about $22 billion a week on net interest on the national debt.
During the first nine months of fiscal year 2026:
• The national debt climbed to $39.39 trillion
• The federal deficit hit $1.373 trillion
• Interest paid so far this year: $857 billion (up 13%)

720,000 people left the U.S. labor force last month.
This pushes the labor force participation rate down to 61.5%, its lowest level since 1976 (outside of the pandemic).
The biggest drop came from prime-age workers, aged 25 to 54.
These are peak working and earning years.
That deserves more attention than it's getting.

The average new car payment just hit $772/month. A record high.
4-year car loans used to be normal. Now buyers are stretching payments to 6, 7, and even 8 years.
1 in 5 financed new-car buyers pays $1,000+ a month.
That’s not a car payment anymore. That’s a second rent check.
Rent is up. Insurance is up. Food is up. Student loans are back. And the average new car is close to $50,000.

JUST IN: Trump bought up to $5 million of Axon stock.
Two weeks later, ICE moved toward a $220 million Taser deal.
Axon makes Tasers. Axon also controls 90% of the US Taser market.
And the White House says there are “no conflicts of interest.”
Politicians should not be trading individual stocks while the Government is handing out contracts.
Public office should be public service.
It's pretty crazy that insider trading is illegal for everyone except the people who make the laws.

There was no promotion. They told me the budget was frozen until the end of the year.
When the end of the year came, a reorg hit. My boss was let go. My role got dumped into a larger team. The promised promotion track vanished.
The other company filled the role I interviewed for, a month later.
Companies “promise” counteroffers because buying themselves more time is cheaper than finding your replacement.
Always get everything in writing. Or just walk away.

2026-05-18 15:13:34 UTC

I accepted a counteroffer early in my career. It was one of my biggest mistakes.
I had been at my job for 2 years and I had an offer from another company. It came with a better title, more money, and remote work.
When I resigned, my boss asked for 24 hours. They came back with a salary match & a verbal promise. They said a promotion was coming next quarter.
My gut told me to leave. My friends told me to leave. But I stayed because I wanted to believe them.
Next quarter arrived.

The US deficit just hit $955 Billion in 7 months.
That's $3 billion EVERY SINGLE DAY.
And the math gets worse.
We are on track to hit nearly $2 Trillion in new debt this year alone.
Right now, 22% of your taxes go straight to paying interest on government debt.
And the Congressional Budget Office projects that in 10 years, 30% of your taxes will go toward paying interest on government debt.
That's nearly 1 in 3 dollars.
And it's only getting worse.

Business schools are now cutting MBA programs by as much as 50% due to falling demand.
Applications are collapsing and the reasons are impossible to ignore:
- AI is wiping out the white-collar jobs MBAs were built to unlock
- The job market for new grads is the weakest it's been in years
- Average MBA debt sits around $80K-$100K (before interest even kicks in)
The ROI is falling. The risk is rising.

Here's the part that should worry you most:
Sentiment drives behavior. When people feel poor, they act poor. They cut spending. They delay big purchases. They pull back.
And when enough people do that at the same time, a recession they feared becomes a recession they created.

ALL of this is happening at the same time.
Not one. Not two. ALL of them. Simultaneously.

My credit score dropped when I paid off my car.
My credit score dropped when I paid off my student loans.
Credit agencies told me: "You should get more loans to increase your credit score."
The system punishes you for not owing any money.
They want you in debt forever.
Credit scoring is one of the biggest scams.

OpenAI’s planned cash burn is insane...
Tesla burned $9.3B before turning profitable.
Netflix burned $11.1B before turning profitable.
Uber burned $11.2B before turning profitable.
OpenAI plans to burn $218B.
I’m sure everything is fine.

The Federal Reserve just pumped $18.5 Billion into the US. Banking System this week through overnight repos.
This is the 4th-largest liquidity injection since COVID and higher than the peak of the Dot-Com Bubble.
I'm sure everything is fine.

Just one generation ago, our parents bought homes, raised children, paid for college, took vacations, and retired comfortably… all on one middle-class salary.
What happened?

Good employees don't quit jobs, they quit:
• Low pay
• Bad bosses
• Office politics
• Toxic workplaces
• Micro-management
• Feeling undervalued
• No work-life balance
• Lack of opportunities
It's 100% okay to leave jobs that no longer serve you.
It's important to be happy where you work. You spend a lot of time there.

A $100,000 salary in 1990 would be over $250,000 in today's dollars.
A $100,000 salary today would be less than $40,000 in 1990.

JUST IN: You can now use buy now, pay later for your rent.
Rent Now, Pay Later is a new option for renters where you pay a fee or a monthly subscription and if you miss a payment, interest rates go way up.
THIS IS VERY VERY BAD.

This is insane.
2005: Median Home Price: $220,000
2025: Median Home Price: $420,000
A 91% increase.
2005 Median Salary: $44,326
2025 Median Salary: $56,292
A 27% increase.

Job security is a myth.

Just a generation ago in the United States, our parents could afford homes, cars, college, 2-3 children, annual vacations, and then retire on a middle-class salary. What happened?

My hospital bill that was $10k, I asked for an itemized receipt and ended up paying $500. American healthcare is a SCAM.

There are currently no states in the US where a full-time worker earning minimum wage can afford a two-bedroom apartment, per the National Low Income Housing Coalition.

Warren Buffett has said a college degree doesn't matter: “Raw business talent and character outweigh academic pedigree”
Do you agree with him?

Not to be overdramatic but if the price of houses had risen at the same rate as median income since 1970 then a house in 2025 would cost an average of $138,000.

Never let a job steal your life.
The company you work for is not your family, you don't owe a job anything beyond the work you're being paid for.
Prioritize your well-being over misplaced loyalty, and never feel guilty about leaving a job.
Companies aren't families, they're businesses. It's a business relationship and their goal is to make money.
If they can make more money by laying you off, they will.
If you have an opportunity to better yourself, never feel guilty about taking it.
