The Fed Nuked Your Home Sale Tax Break (And Your Income Too)

This week Matt unpacks two quiet heists hiding in plain sight. First, why your paycheck and savings feel like they're shrinking even when the official numbers say everything's fine — and the Harvard-written playbook the Treasury is using to pay down the national debt with your purchasing power. Then, the $250,000 home sale tax break Washington promised back in 1997 — half of it has already been silently nuked by inflation, with one in three homeowners now on track to owe capital gains on what they thought was a tax-free sale. Senators Cruz and Scott are pressuring Treasury Secretary Bessent to fix it, but you don't have to wait — Matt walks through documented strategies you can use right now to protect what you've built.
