    Three years ago, nobody could have foreseen the current state of the U.S. economy. The U.S. continues to repeat the same mistakes that have led to the recent situation. As a result, there's no guarantee that the nation's future will be as bright as it's hoped to be.

      Indeed, you are correct! But on the advantageous aspect, economic downturns offer numerous prospects for ordinary individuals to create wealth from the ground up. Nevertheless, seeking guidance from an investment planner might be necessary if you desire a more assertive return.

      I fully agree and place great value on my advisor's role in guiding my daily investments. They excel in both long and short strategies, managing risk for potential gains and protection against market downturns. Their access to exclusive insights and in-depth analysis makes exceeding expectations a regular outcome. In the two-plus years I've worked with my advisor, I've gained over 1.2million dollars.

      A couple of days ago, Zelensky said that Russia mined the reactors of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant and wants to blow it up. But at that time there were representatives of the International Atomic Energy Agency. They conducted an inspection and the next day they reported that there were no mines and that Russian troops did not store ammunition and explosives inside the nuclear power plant. But the leadership of Ukraine stubbornly declares that Russia has mined and is about to commit a terrorist attack at the station.
      I am very afraid that the Ukrainian leadership in the coming days may take such actions and decide on a massive bombardment of a nuclear power plant using Storm Shadow missiles installed and tested on Ukrainian Air Force aircraft, as well as using M142 HIMARS. Although the Russian army has learned to easily intercept missiles from the M142 HIMARS, as well as the Storm Shadow, but using a combined attack they can break through the Russian shield, because even the iron dome of Israel cannot withstand a massive combined attack.
      During the hostilities in Ukraine since 2022, it became clear that the Ukrainian leadership and Ukrainian troops could launch any inhuman attack. They killed their own fellow citizens in Bucha and hit "Point U" at the station in Kramatorsk, into a crowd of refugees, hits on a bus station in people who tried to leave Zaporozhye for Vasilyevka, Zaporozhye region (controlled by the Russian Federation). Undermining the dams of the Kyiv region. And undermining the Kakhovskaya HPP. To blame Russia for these attacks. But the problem is that the military and officials initially publish in their networks how they shat Russia and then erase their records and blame the Russian Federation for everything. And also the United States transferred nuclear waste to Ukraine to create dirty bombs and stored in the Odessa region.
      So I hope the publication of this material will be able to create a resonance so that Zelensky's bloody regime does not repeat the Chernobyl tragedy. They are crazy and will stop at nothing for money.!!!!!

      @@Proranis I wouldn’t necessarily say that nothing has changed. I mean for one we definitely are in a better place now than we were in March or April 2020. The virus is gone unemployment has decreased and the job market has certainly strengthened. However, I will say that a lot of Americans are still hurting due to the large stimulus that Congress passed. Because now we’re facing high inflation and it’s difficult for people to buy homes right now especially in the large metropolitan areas. Sometimes wonder if we injected too much money into the economy. I know certainly there were lots of people, who were in some sense undeserving of these checks while others suffered more. However, in retrospect of all this, I will say that it certainly did not take 10 years for the US economy to recover much like the 2008 financial crisis.

    I'll say one thing, the general working populous is getting poorer because of governmental problems induced by greedy corporations, who have big money investors, that work to shape policies to save them more money though tax loopholes, international outsourcing, and allowing the poorer populous absorb the costs of the price of labor, materials, or research and development of a project even if it fails. Investors who do none of the actual work in a company but are catered to, at the risk at the most of us, to show profits. No hit to their bottom line big hit to all our pockets. So, I don't care if you're skin tone/color is different from mine, I don't care what gender you love, I don't care if you have a faith in religion or not.

    In spite of how everyone is frig-htened and calling the crash, there is already an excessive amount of demand waiting to absorb it, which is another reason it's less likely to happen that way. This forecast was not made in 2008, at least not by the general public, as I will explain below. The own-ership rate peaked in 2004, according to the other comment. We reached a peak in the second quarter of 2020 and are currently at the median level. From 2008 to 2012, it fell by 3%, and in the second qua-rter of 2020, it dropped from 68 to 65.

      If you have a family, you should be helping each other. It comes down to how you choose to live. I know too many people in all walks of life. I lived my life that way since about age 35 when I had a personal awakening. I paid cash for everything. I didn't want a mortgage or high taxes so I moved into a smaller home in a lower property tax jurisdiction. I'm different than 4 of my 5 siblings in that way. I lived tight, paid off my house, driving cheap old cars.
      That will get you nowhere in 5 years, but in 25 years it will. I'm not pretending to know or understand your situation, or that I'm any bit smarter, but I know my culture doesn't agree with too many, many who laughed at my frugality, but now they face a horrible future as they enter senior years.
      To me, the govt and basically anyone outside my domain, cannot be trusted. My only worry now is my health and that's the big deal. I hope you are well. Remember that no one will ever be there for you except some close family members. For me, it's my mom and maybe one of my sisters. That's it. For the rest, I've always been there for them but it wasn't reciprocated unfortunately.

Once the collapse happened, their homes were worth 1/2 what they paid and they would have been Dumb to continue paying the monthly astronomical mortgage payments for a home worth so little.

      Wall Street had nothing to do with this. Supply chain shutdowns and government approval to support businesses both small and large, and increase unemployment benefits AND the child tax credit AND giving people $1400 did. Wall Street just responded to what Washington thought was best...which obviously didn't work out.
      Supply chain shutdowns = less product. Less product + more demand (from everyone having more disposable income) = higher prices. Now those inflated prices are staying sticky because businesses have to adjust their costs based on higher costs from their own supply chains (due to supply still not meeting demand), meaning those higher costs need to get passed down to customers, else the businesses can't operate with a profit.
      Use your head a bit. Anyone who supported lockdowns and in turn the slowing of economic engines deserves what they wanted, because they were fear mongered over things.

    I mean I understand that hindsight is 20:20, and the fed had to try to prevent a certain level of panic, but with the fed just coming out and saying it would print unlimited money, are we really shocked at the inflation situation we’re seeing now?
    Maybe they had to do it. Idk. But it’s clear that you have to pay the piper eventually.

    A big reason why the inflation grew so fast was pumping in all that free money and keeping interest rates so low. There was going to be inflation and now with that infrastructure law, CHIPS act for semi conductors, and the inflation reduction act basically with these and government spending it will prevent another recession, but require the Fed to raise rates again. Without that government spending we be in a recession rate now if we were in any other year 20,30, even 40 years ago.

    It would have been better to bail out the mortgage holders who lost their homes, since so many had been hoodwinked into variable-rate mortgages.The banks actually "robo-signed" people into foreclosure, basically forging peoples' signatures. Instead of bailing out the banks, they should have put the money directly into the middle class.
