We're doing something a bit special today. I'm releasing today's episode of This Week in Freedom, a podcast only normally available to my Patreon supporters, to the general public, and on the RSS Feed for The Unconstrained Podcast. Check it out here:
Why is it that some people have the knack to see an opportunity and seize it, and others just watch them pass by?
The numbers don't lie. They tell a tale of a society living well beyond its means. This is why 80% of Americans are broke and living pay check to pay check.
A recent podcast discussion that I was a co-host on came up, in which the host asked the question, "Are Americans Rich?". The context was to do with whether we all shouldered the burden of charitable giving to other nations and whether that is something that should be done by the individual. The discussion brings up some very interesting dynamics, which I will attempt to give my opinion on in this article.
