Everyone loves “free money” until they realize what it actually costs them. In this episode, we break down the silent wealth divide happening in real time and why the next decade will massively reward owners, investors, and creators while leaving everyone else behind. Headlines about new $2,000 stimulus checks and the introduction of 50-year mortgages make it feel like help is on the way, but moves like these quietly inflate the price of everything. They make housing more expensive, savings less valuable, and the wealth gap wider. We talk about how stimulus and easy credit made people feel richer in the moment but slowly eroded their purchasing power. The result is a growing chasm between people who own assets and people who only have income. We unpack why inflation punishes savers, why relying on a paycheck will never beat the speed of rising prices, and how the people who get ahead are the ones who understand leverage, equity, and asymmetric opportunity. Ownership isn’t just a financial strategy. It is a survival strategy. We also dive into the mindset shift required to avoid becoming a casualty of the system and instead position yourself on the right side of it. If you feel like you’re working harder but not getting ahead, or like the world is getting more expensive while your dollars buy less each year, this episode gives you the clarity you’ve been missing. The rules have changed. It is time to learn the game. Book your mentorship discovery call with Cory
