Federal Budget Fallout | Rates. Up? Down? Sideways? | Death of the Middle Class | 3.9 Million Homes? | Now What?

Join me this week as we dissect the most pressing economic issues. First, we delve into the recent federal budget's fallout—what it means for the economy and how it affects you. Then, we'll break down interest rates: Are they going up, down, or holding steady in this unpredictable financial climate? I'll also discuss the alarming trends contributing to the death of the middle class, and what policies might help revive it. Plus, we'll explore the reality behind the headlines of 3.9 million homes and which planet Disney+ Lady and J.T. are living on this week. Tune in for insightful analysis and thoughtful debate on where we go from here!

From there, we break into talking about where our housing numbers and behaviours are right now before we can really understand how much of a disaster this federal budget really could end up being. This is one of our bigger thought-provoking podcasts. Love to hear your comments.
