#781: Why Does Everyone Think The Economy Is So Bad?

On this episode of The Dentist Money Show, Matt and Jake explore the surprising disconnect between how people feel about the economy and what the data actually shows. They discuss inflation, housing affordability, wage growth, the labor market, AI, stock market performance, and consumer sentiment, while examining why so many Americans remain pessimistic despite strong economic fundamentals. They also consider the role of social media, negative headlines, and comparison culture in shaping our outlook and discuss what these trends mean specifically for dentists and their financial decisions.
