Why “Normal” People Are Going Broke in 2026 (The Harsh Truth)
The American Dream is mathematically broken. Since 1990, housing prices have skyrocketed 400%, while household income has only grown 180%. If you feel poorer than your parents despite making more money on paper, that is why.
In this video, we break down exactly why following traditional financial advice—”save 10%,” “buy a starter home,” “get a reliable car”—is a one-way ticket to being broke in 2026. The system is designed to extract your wealth through mortgage interest and 7-year car loans.
We cover the “Slog Phase,” why the first $100,000 actually takes 10 years (not 7), and why hitting $20,000 in savings is the only milestone that actually matters for your psychology.
