You Need to Recession-Proof Your Life

from The Midlife Guys · host The Midlife Guys

With wars being waged in the Middle East and oil prices in flux, some in the media and markets are rumouring a recession looming on the horizon. Nothing new for Milennials: we've already lived through the Iraq war in 2003, the financial crash of '08 and the pandemic of '20. We're used to unpredictability. We've been caught in the middle of geopolitics and already lived through skyrocketing costs of living and economic uncertainty. Now the only question is: how can you take control of your finances? Mike and Andrew are here to help. Build a buffer, leveraging high-interest savings accounts to build interest; shop around for new insurance companies and banks; combine errands to save on gas; cook at home more: none of this is glamorous, but it works. It’s exactly what many people relearned in 2008—small, consistent decisions that reduce stress and give you more control when the broader economy doesn’t.
