With the Fed hiking rates, it looks like the age of cheap credit and accelerated growth is coming to an end.
Credit scores are going to become more important.
The housing market might not be affordable any more.
And the millionaire dream seems to be drifting away. But…
This week’s videos are all about understanding the changes in the landscape and how you can get a headstart in dealing with them. From a gameplan to get the perfect credit score to dealing with the broken housing market, from fixing the financial lives of millennials to investing like a millionaire, this is the whole buffet! Here’s a quick recap.

- Every bank ever
It’s the chicken-and-egg problem: If you need a cheap loan, you need a good credit score, but for a good credit score you need loans in the first place. Not to worry! Over the last 12 years, I’ve researched every single factor that goes into credit scores on my road to a perfect 800. I’ll take you through the most important factors, the red flags that lenders look for, and a complete plan to build your credit score from scratch - with some unconventional methods that you won’t find anywhere else. Cheap credit is like free money, so this information is easily worth a few thousand dollars!
Damage control for the screwed housing market
The housing market is in a rocky place right now. With the Fed following through on their plan to hike rates, the coming months are going to be wild. In this video, I’ll break down the top 5 predictions for the housing market in 2022 - and also where I differ from the experts based on my experience in the field. If you own a property or know anybody who does, you’ll also want to take a look to know how you might be at risk due to changing valuations, and how you can protect against this risk.
As a bonus, I also take a look at the terrible finances of Millennials and why they should start thinking about money along with watering their plants and thinking about what to order for dinner.
