I know Galloway well and I'm pretty sure he was miserable throughout this interview lol. He was betting on Jon being there and didn't get the slot is my guess. Not to say I don't love Ronny.
I absolutely love this host.....and SG is an absolute mic drop legend. Major props to both for carrying this conversation seamlessly and packing both a humorous and informative punch
That was a interesting interview! Non-wealthy Boomer here! I lived paycheck to paycheck most of my life working 2-3 jobs. I ended up working for a large very profitable infrastructure company for 13 years (accounts payable admin) starting at $17 an hour. Only just a few years ago was I able to save for retirement. Each year I got a 3% cost of living increase which I was thankful for. In January I got fired because I made to much money! Corporations only care about profits!
My friend just got fired after 36 years with a company - he was IT manager, the entire team was fired the same day. She was on vacation and got an SMS. THIRTY SIX YEARS...!!!
@@HeadCannonPrime as I had commented previously - the boomers not only voted themselves more money - they promptly borrowed against that money and billed us.
Fantastic! I did an AmeriCorps ViSTa program on a native charter reservation school and I learned so much! I think it’s a fantastic idea for national service. I lived a new city, learned to live frugally, made new friends including an invitation to a sweat lodge, learned some Native Puget Sound language and got a scholarship for completing that year of service. More than anything, We need to start caring about one another again.
Yes, Scott's compelling message on behalf of corporations (his clients) who are hoarding billions paid to them by the American consumer and keeping it from reentering the economy by paying wages that barely allow their employees to cover basic expenses. But sure - blame government policy. Given his client list, too much of a conflict of interest for him to tell the truth.
@@daegon1985 I get what you're saying. But Galloway himself said that he likes Ronnie and it wasn't the issue. He just prefers longer form interviews and doesn't do as well with such a format. My point was that after hearing all that first, I expected this to be pretty bad, but it's totally fine.
He has a weekly show uploaded here called "The Prof G Show" with his ward Ed Elson. I look forward to it every week. Scott's advice is changing my life.
@@emmanuel0030Id say the guy who actually has a plan to invest in the middle class by taxing the wealthy and corporations so they pay their fair share.
@@wyomiinot familiar with them, but in a quick review of their website I’d say their platform is sound, but do they have the polling and/or backing required to win over roughly half the population? Idk
@@nurseliz-561 Getting to 5% of the popular vote gets a party access to public campaign funds. Think of where the green party could go with that. That's more of their goal right now, but they usually only get 2-3%. A little more for libertarians.
@@WanderingExistence couldn't disagree more. He's doing a character, like Colbert used to, where you make the questions jokes to keep the interview engaging
@@radiumtheatre Ok, maybe the problem is that I'm already engaged into the intellectual capacity of the guest and don't need to be distracted with cheap humor- because that what it was due to making Scott lose his flow right as he was getting into the meaty parts.
@@WanderingExistence there's a really boring, non antagonistic version of that interview. If you watch it, Ronny very adeptly moves through the main points of the book, whilst coming across as somebody who hasn't read it and doesn't care. Which is the majority of the audience
I have always said that if young people, by which I mean anyone under 30, voted in the same numbers as the boomers, this would be an entirely different country.
Problem is, younger people don't have the same numbers as Boomers and half of Boomers haven't worked in 50 years. They literally sit around and wait for election days
But if they listen to Prof G and Bernie they will be misdirected away from the real problem though. Like they did voting out people who did real work in Congress and ushered in younger people who so far have not accomplished anything. Prof G and Bernie are always protecting their interests and the corporations that pay them when they speak so no one really learns anything.
Being emotionally invested in an issue is important. ... The next step is actually doing something about it. A lot of people get upset, but fewer people actually go out and try to implement change. Especially now, with social media, which we can use as an emotional outlet as an alternative to investing effort into changing our lifestyles and habits.
@@Jackolantirn but what can you do about it in a bipartisan system where both the major parties together hold 100% of the power - literally 100% of it - and they both vote themselves more money, as Scott says it so well.
My loan for my daughter's education was forgiven. Thank you so much Biden. I honestly couldn't afford it. My daughter's other loans were forgiven the week before. 😊
@@KK-pm7ud It’s not sarcasm. On May 21.2024 THE U.S. Department of Education released this news: “Today's announcement brings the total loan forgiveness approved by the Biden-Harris Administration to $167 billion for 4.75 million Americans. Thanks to this Administration's efforts more than one out of every 10 federal student loan borrowers has now been approved for some debt relief.”

I served in the military. There are already enough people in there that shouldn't have been allowed (and they volunteered). Don't break the system by forcing more people with less drive into it, lives are literally at stake.

You might not know all the forms of service in the military, from humanitarian and peacekeeping missions, to the army corps of engineers putting up levies, to just about any job a civilian does, there are plenty of missions and things to do
Definitely. This guy (host) is funny in small doses, but his "angry ADHD" style is a bit much for me. Jon would've set up a game of verbal chess with Mr. G, and that would have been fascinating to watch.

Reagan was all for wages following the CPI. It was the Bush 43 administration that ushered in the new philosophy coming out of Harvard at the time to pay less and people would put up with it. Gore warned of this but no one listened.
No, this is all about the turn the USA took circa 1970 when we ditched gold std, started inflating our money supply and handing out public money that we print. You can never spend more than you make long term, this rule even applies to countries with reserve currencies like the US, we will ultimately fail because of this, history is littered with nations who keep repeating this insanity. We also failed at containing government and now we are no longer a true Republic or a democracy, we are a socialist nation ruled by an elite wealthy class. Essentially we are China in a different skin.
Thank you a) Scott Galloway for the clear perspective and b) Ronny Chieng for blunt humor that ALL of us born after a certain time can relate to. Very well handled discussion.
Yes Thank You Scott Galloway for promoting Walmart's message "we want to pay you more of our billions in cash but the government won't raise the minimum wage so we just can't pay people a fair wage! Alas, it will have to just go into our pockets, thanks to government policies! Yes you all should be so mad at them! And by the way, you should be saving 3-6% of your poverty wages or you have no hope of retiring well. Blame the government!"
I'm just curious as to where the constant tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy & already rich corporations over the last 40 years fits into this equation of income inequality. It seems like this plan for a ruling-class owned & operated society was setup back in the early 80s beginning with Reaganomics, which is where those tax cuts began
I think it's nice that he shows a degree of awareness of what people are facing these days, but the idea of saving money for the future is, frankly, a pipe dream for most of today's young people.

Indirectly everybody will benefit from a more equal society, even if people like Elon would rather see it burn to the ground than him not being the wealthiest person on Earth.
I’ve been diligently working, saving and contributing towards early retirement and financial freedom, but since covid outbreak, the economy so far has caused my portfolio to underperform, do I keep contributing to my 401k or look at alternative sectors to meet my goals?
I'm in line with having an advisor oversee my day-to-day investing cos, my job doesn't permit me the time to analyze stocks myself. Thankfully, my portfolio has tripled in barely one year and half, summing up nearly $1m after subsequent investments to date.
This is superb! I appreciate the implementation of ideas and strategies that result to immeasurable progress. This now leads me to the search for a reputable advisor, mind sharing info of this person guiding you please?
She's ‘Kathleen Cheryl Constantz’ I suggest you look her up online. To be honest, I almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finance, but so glad I did

Wow, Ronny could host the show full time no problem. Seems like the modern day Jon Steward in this clip. Love it! So much talent in the cast of this show.
Jon would have asked better questions, and would have addressed the fact that Prof Galloway makes a ton of money as a corporate consultant and coincidentally he did not place any of the blame on the low wages they are paying which don't keep up with consumer prices so that young people, never mind saving 3%-6% (which he tossed off like it was a given) don't have enough money to simply pay rent and eat nutritious food nowadays. At least when Boomers got out of school they made a high enough wage to meet these basic expenses.
@@scarletryane8842look. The demo base is young people you have to speak in the TikTok generation terms. I like Ronny’s plain and simple yet englightening style.
As a teacher I 100% agree with the forced compulsory service to the country for say 1-3 years (DOES NOT MEAN MILITARY SERVICE) - it would foster care for the nation/future and empathy for fellow citizens despite differences between them
He said "3% to 6%starting in your 20s" and you'll be wealthy at his age. Easiest way, have 10% auto-transferred into savings each pay period. Don't worry, it's still yours. Make a game of living on the rest: Can I do without it or get it cheaper? Lots of RUclips channels on thrift. And you might be under-paid at your current job. Negotiating raises; strategically changing jobs; getting certification, training & education that bumps up your pay level are survival necessities now.
It doesn't work on its own, it's dependent on his other advice working out. It's a broad statement. You will never be rich saving even 10% of your salary at McDonalds unless you get incredibly lucky with bets on the market which is not advisable or sustainable. His advice about saving is largely targeted at people working jobs above the median pay. I wouldn't castigate him for that either. There isn't one answer to any of these problems. You'd have to make a lot of changes which have the potential to lead to a better future and even then it isn't guaranteed.
@@TheDilkshakeyou don't need to be lucky just put it in a low cost index fund tried and safe but people need to be educated about it. As Mr Boggle said, why bet in the casino when you can buy the casino 😎
Is it tougher for the ones at the bottom of the income hierarchy to be able to put aside money for their retirement? Certainly - however it is not impossible, and every single one of us needs to understand that compounding interest and time in the market are our friends. The median household have a real shot at having over a million dollars saved up if they can put forward 10% of the households income into savings per year across a lifetime (40 years), and if you have an average income instead of the median, that number dramatically increases. That's not to say it's not tough at the bottom - it is, and while I am not American, I would hope you guys are able to help those in that situation. However the median McD worker would be able to retire with about $250,000 saved up if they were able to put up that 10% you noted. I don't know if that is enough to retire with in the US, but from what I can see, they would still be able to beat the current median savings for that age, even though they have been below median income levels their whole life.
we were the first ones to scream when the roller coaster started curving downward ... Still, as bad as we had it, I can't imagine starting out as an adult now. We had slim chances. Folks now have none.
I'm 68, went through several recessions, lost jobs because of closures - as if walking on melting ice. Several jobs, from up to janitor in a warehouse, cleaning restrooms. First home at 21, economy ruined everything. I was not college educated but I understood/learned and I was not afraid to ask questions. I retired as a Sr manager, I was chosen over highly educated individuals, Masters, PHd, and more. I was very skilled in my position, I interviewed for fun and offered several positions - turned down. But I never forget the challenges and intense worries that i experienced, often smiling and telling all it's ok, knowing i had nothing in my pocket or refrigerator or sharing last dollar, saying I had more. Not rich, but humbled in a home and retirement. Worries for democracy, vote
@@AshraNashal52 exactly. He bought a house as a janitor at 21, chose not to get a degree and was retired by 68. That's objectively an easy life, in comparison to today's average person.
Apologies for "ambiguous" as it was a comment. To clarify, I bought 1st home at 21 with gi bill while working in office at railroad. It was 21k in 77 and sold it in 79 and purchased another home - BTW interest rates were as high or substantially higher than today. In early 80s recession came on, I along with many others lost jobs, I sold. I can say literally entire neighborhoods were up for sale in Midwest. I remember ads in paper saying they would do anything legal for $ or prayers. I moved to TX, got janitor position in warehouse. I did well in that despite condescending attitudes, even offered promotion to maintenance. This a major company aligned with Wal-Mart treated there workers horribly, I refused this and they fired me. I then was fortunate to get a position in admin, promoted, kept searching another elsewhere, low tier but moving and working...and...so on, another lay off at 40 due to closing. I was worried but had purchased a home, then property in the interim. I accepted a low position in ATX, offered another 2 months later, and proceeded on that trajectory until I retired. In the interim I was always challenged by colleagues for lack of education - however I learned/interpreted/trained those same individuals, humbly. Retired because of corruption in high level state law firm. I'm humbled still, in Austin. To clarify, no money from day one from anyone then or now, many days with change in pocket, kept forward hope and didn't wait or ask.

I'm in line with having an advisor oversee my day-to-day investing cos, my job doesn't permit me the time to analyze stocks myself. Thankfully, my portfolio has tripled in barely one year and half, summing up nearly $1m after subsequent investments to date.
This is superb! I appreciate the implementation of ideas and strategies that result to immeasurable progress. This now leads me to the search for a reputable advisor, mind sharing info of this person guiding you please?
She's ‘Kathleen Cheryl Constantz’ I suggest you look her up online. To be honest, I almost didn't buy the idea of letting someone handle growing my finance, but so glad I did
Thank you for putting this out, it has rekindled the fire in my goal. Was able to find Kathleen on the web and sent an email hoping it gets attended to.
Having an icon like Finch associated with 4ra makes every event feel premium and top notch
This guy impresses me every time I hear him speak.
Scott Galloway is the GOAT
Always enjoy hearing Scott Galloway
Prof G ftw 🙌
Thanks! you sure made ProfG skip his memorized lines and engaged him 😂
Even when I lost, 4ra gave me cashback. Really helpful, my brother was right about this feature.
Scott Galloway for President!!!
2024!!!
Right? All the people we need in politics don’t want to do it 😑
@@Sci-lives THIS. I'm 33 now and i've noticed most of the smart and honest people who could make a change for the better either don't believe in themself or just don't want to get mixed in a toxic place like politics
Prof G for President!
Excellent interview. Proud to consider myself a positive contributor to that much needed change. Let’s defend this democracy!
I’m reading this book. This would be great for college age folk trying to find their way.
Always a refresher to hear Prof G talk about these issues. Seems to be one of the few ppl who really get it.
woooooo scotty. legend.
Prof G's talk works better with charts, like in his Ted Talk
Will vote you in Scott
I didn’t know John Malkovich is so versed in business and economics.
Aaron Finch as an ambassador for 4rabet really raises the bar he brings that star quality to events
Fun Fact: All rich people taste the same.
yum
I loves the Soylent Green 💚
And their children are less stringy.
@@johnl6176 A lot less fat, since they eat so well.
With some fava beans and a nice Chianti.
Prof G I listen to you every week on pivot, prof g markets, and most importantly I listen to G Hann read no mercy no malice. You’re an important voice in my life and hopefully the life of the nation.
Great set. Ronnie!
Scott is a national treasure, ty sir!
Fellow Boomer Man knows what he is talking about.
@chandleredwards No he doesn't! He's myopic and neglects a large proportion of older Americans. See other comments and show some compassion.
He is gen x btw
Aaron Finch at 4ra events makes everything brighter his sporting prowess is a beacon of reliability
Great interviewer and interviewee.
Scotts podcasts are amazing listen to them weekly and you will become a smarter & wealthier person.
Wow, Ronny could host the show full time no problem. Seems like the modern day Jon Steward in this clip. Love it! So much talent in the cast of this show.
Jon would have asked better questions, and would have addressed the fact that Prof Galloway makes a ton of money as a corporate consultant and coincidentally he did not place any of the blame on the low wages they are paying which don't keep up with consumer prices so that young people, never mind saving 3%-6% (which he tossed off like it was a given) don't have enough money to simply pay rent and eat nutritious food nowadays. At least when Boomers got out of school they made a high enough wage to meet these basic expenses.
@@scarletryane8842look. The demo base is young people you have to speak in the TikTok generation terms. I like Ronny’s plain and simple yet englightening style.
Run for president please!
As a teacher I 100% agree with the forced compulsory service to the country for say 1-3 years (DOES NOT MEAN MILITARY SERVICE) - it would foster care for the nation/future and empathy for fellow citizens despite differences between them
Wow, can we have this man run for president!?
The overlords would never allow it but someone like this is who we want and need
@@dm96177 I’d even take Robot overlords at this point.
@@michaeltrimble7680same 😅
Ronny - Scott Galloway is a Gen X not a Baby Boomer - he was just too polite to correct you on this.
Gen X - always forgotten and overlooked 😉
I LOVE SCOTT GALLOWAY. He is my idol. This is the best mashup. My favourite show: the daily show + My favourite professor: Scott Galloway
Billionaires are to blame, Ronny!
It's that simple.
A very inspirational guest!
What a great, smart, mature, informative guest and interview. This was monumentally better than that other guest, Eben Moss-ButtCrac.
I love this, and love Scott! One question though… did he say mandatory military service??
I agree with the guy, but save what money from where?
He said "3% to 6%starting in your 20s" and you'll be wealthy at his age. Easiest way, have 10% auto-transferred into savings each pay period. Don't worry, it's still yours. Make a game of living on the rest: Can I do without it or get it cheaper? Lots of RUclips channels on thrift. And you might be under-paid at your current job. Negotiating raises; strategically changing jobs; getting certification, training & education that bumps up your pay level are survival necessities now.
It doesn't work on its own, it's dependent on his other advice working out. It's a broad statement. You will never be rich saving even 10% of your salary at McDonalds unless you get incredibly lucky with bets on the market which is not advisable or sustainable. His advice about saving is largely targeted at people working jobs above the median pay. I wouldn't castigate him for that either. There isn't one answer to any of these problems. You'd have to make a lot of changes which have the potential to lead to a better future and even then it isn't guaranteed.
@@TheDilkshakeyou don't need to be lucky just put it in a low cost index fund tried and safe but people need to be educated about it. As Mr Boggle said, why bet in the casino when you can buy the casino 😎
Is it tougher for the ones at the bottom of the income hierarchy to be able to put aside money for their retirement? Certainly - however it is not impossible, and every single one of us needs to understand that compounding interest and time in the market are our friends.
The median household have a real shot at having over a million dollars saved up if they can put forward 10% of the households income into savings per year across a lifetime (40 years), and if you have an average income instead of the median, that number dramatically increases.
That's not to say it's not tough at the bottom - it is, and while I am not American, I would hope you guys are able to help those in that situation. However the median McD worker would be able to retire with about $250,000 saved up if they were able to put up that 10% you noted. I don't know if that is enough to retire with in the US, but from what I can see, they would still be able to beat the current median savings for that age, even though they have been below median income levels their whole life.
@@TheDilkshake... thank you. This is exactly what he was missing.
Great segment.
I came here for comedy and got an information firehose.
Can I vote for this guy for president???❤
Gen X - sigh - represent - hands up
They always say it's millennials and zoomers feeling the pain, but boomers perfected it on xrs. We've been struggling with it the longest.
we were the first ones to scream when the roller coaster started curving downward ... Still, as bad as we had it, I can't imagine starting out as an adult now. We had slim chances. Folks now have none.
Right here buddy🙋🏻♂️ I feel you
I should read Scott's book although it's almost too late! No savings or retirement and I'm pretty old -
I'm 68, went through several recessions, lost jobs because of closures - as if walking on melting ice. Several jobs, from up to janitor in a warehouse, cleaning restrooms. First home at 21, economy ruined everything. I was not college educated but I understood/learned and I was not afraid to ask questions. I retired as a Sr manager, I was chosen over highly educated individuals, Masters, PHd, and more. I was very skilled in my position, I interviewed for fun and offered several positions - turned down. But I never forget the challenges and intense worries that i experienced, often smiling and telling all it's ok, knowing i had nothing in my pocket or refrigerator or sharing last dollar, saying I had more. Not rich, but humbled in a home and retirement. Worries for democracy, vote
"first home at 21".
@@kezzt and then lost it to economic downturn
@@patbeulah6208 where does it say that?
@@AshraNashal52 exactly. He bought a house as a janitor at 21, chose not to get a degree and was retired by 68. That's objectively an easy life, in comparison to today's average person.
Apologies for "ambiguous" as it was a comment. To clarify, I bought 1st home at 21 with gi bill while working in office at railroad. It was 21k in 77 and sold it in 79 and purchased another home - BTW interest rates were as high or substantially higher than today. In early 80s recession came on, I along with many others lost jobs, I sold. I can say literally entire neighborhoods were up for sale in Midwest. I remember ads in paper saying they would do anything legal for $ or prayers. I moved to TX, got janitor position in warehouse. I did well in that despite condescending attitudes, even offered promotion to maintenance. This a major company aligned with Wal-Mart treated there workers horribly, I refused this and they fired me. I then was fortunate to get a position in admin, promoted, kept searching another elsewhere, low tier but moving and working...and...so on, another lay off at 40 due to closing. I was worried but had purchased a home, then property in the interim. I accepted a low position in ATX, offered another 2 months later, and proceeded on that trajectory until I retired. In the interim I was always challenged by colleagues for lack of education - however I learned/interpreted/trained those same individuals, humbly. Retired because of corruption in high level state law firm. I'm humbled still, in Austin. To clarify, no money from day one from anyone then or now, many days with change in pocket, kept forward hope and didn't wait or ask.
I was wondering who this random guy was but I’m glad I clicked and happy DS picked him as a guest, thank you.
He just pointed out that minimum wage is $7.25/hr, now he's assuming people have money to save.
This man should be president
"Our elected officials are a cross between the Golden Girls & The Walking Dead..."
*Preach!*
Ronnie is the BEST!!
props to Ron Chieng for hosting that interview so well. kept things light, funny, without being too insulting, and also keeping things on topic and featuring Mr. Galloway and his message properly
Yes, we do need mandated public service.
I would give $$$ money to see these two playing drinking games 😂😂😂❤
I didn't know that I needed this till you said it - now I want to see Mr Chen and Mr Galloway play drinking games with economic facts!
This man is incredibly witty
