    In today's video, we're tackling a growing issue that might sound scarier than it actually is. We'll break it all down for you, so make sure to stick around until the end to get my full thoughts.
    American Consumer Debt has reached a staggering $17.06 Trillion.
    We'll explore personal consumption expenditures, which have hit $18.72 trillion, showing that consumer behavior is still on the rise. According to the US Bureau of Economic Analysis, spending continues to reach all-time highs, and we'll analyze this trend over the years.
    Next, we'll touch on consumer sentiment. Americans' optimism about the current economy isn't great, but there are some positive signs. We'll dissect the data, discussing both short-term and long-term trends.
    To get the most up-to-date insights, we'll look at the monthly consumer confidence survey, which reaches 36 million consumers. It reveals interesting statistics about income expectations and current financial situations. The landscape is evolving, and we'll examine what this means for your finances.
    Now, let's take a look at the breakdown of consumer debt. Mortgages dominate, making up 70% of the total debt balance, but there are also student loans, auto loans, and credit card debt.
    Non-housing debt has been on the rise, with credit card balances at an all-time high of $1.03 trillion. Auto loans and other balances have also increased. We'll analyze these trends and their potential impact on the economy.
    On a positive note, delinquency rates have remained low after a sharp decline during the early stages of the pandemic. We'll explore the current state of delinquencies for various types of debt.
    As we shift our focus to the broader economic picture, we'll discuss US GDP growth and its impact on the financial landscape. The increase in money supply and its effect on purchasing power will also be explained.
    Lastly, I'll share my thoughts and some simple strategies to navigate these financial waters. While things appear stable for now, we'll discuss the importance of continuing to invest and maintaining an emergency fund.

    Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got to talking about investment and money. I started investing with $150k and in the first 2 months, my portfolio was reading $274,800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and get more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family.

    Managing money is different from accumulating wealth, and the lack of investment education in schools may explain why people struggle to maintain their financial gains. The examples you provided are relevant, and I personally benefited from the market crisis, as I embrace challenging times while others tend to avoid them. Well, at least my advisor does too, jokingly

    I retired in May 2020 6:15 is me. I am somewhat bitter as I sold my primary during that same time frame and we know what happened to real estate since. What has saved us is we own rentals and have absolutely no consumer debt. We have pretty much stopped eating out as we can't get past the price of food. $14 for an enchilada combo at a counter serve place is just too much. The upside is it's nice to see liquid savings actually giving a bit of return now.

    Very nice Marko. I do not disagree with your conclusion. My takeaway is that cash itself erodes over time as does debt in value. When we think of inflation, the smart move is to lay claim to those commodities likely to inflate more. Those hard assets are stocks, real estate, and certain commodities. We are into the first two. But we also think perhaps we need to create debt ourselves such as more real estate in choice locations. We can quality.
