59% of Americans can’t cover a $1,000 emergency—down from 44% last year. Most turn to credit cards or loans, a risky move in today’s high-rate economy. Inflation’s bite is real. Build that emergency fund before life hits. #EmergencySavings #Finsky

When tariffs go up, markets get jumpy.
But instead of panic-selling, zoom out.
🧠 Think:
1. U.S.-centric ETFs
2. Dividend stocks
3. Inflation hedges

Biden achieved a soft landing. People forget that this was deemed almost impossible but Biden and Powell did it. I hate the fact that misinformation has taken over so much that we can’t see simple truths.

"A car payment is just a fact of life." No, it’s a choice. Buying used, avoiding unnecessary upgrades, and paying in cash (if possible) can save thousands. Don’t get trapped in an endless cycle of car debt. 🚗💰

Renting is throwing money away." Nope. Renting = flexibility + no maintenance costs. Buying only makes sense if you stay long enough to offset closing costs & interest. Don’t rush into a mortgage because of bad advice.
