Acerca de esta escucha
Nearly half of all American adults live paycheck to paycheck. These misunderstood majority of "tightropers" spend time, effort, and tons of emotional energy balancing their lack of capital with increasing demands on those limited financial resources.
Economic instability is the new normal across all income levels. Teetering: Why So Many Live on a Financial Tightrope and What to Do About It addresses the critical question, what's wrong with American policies and the financial institutions that are failing so many hard-working people today? It merges original research with stories from real-life "tightropers" and makes the case for urgent action by financial institutions, innovators, investors, regulators, policymakers, and influencers to recognize and change the financial forces that push the American Dream out of reach for nearly half of the adult populace.
Teetering proposes common-ground solutions that work regardless of political leaning and provides a roadmap for how innovators can serve this growing need and for how banks and others can start saying "yes" to their customers again.

Over 80 percent of Americans under the age of 43 are stressed about money, especially during this unprecedented inflation, according to the American Psychological Association. You could blame the pandemic or the collapse of the economy, but blaming something you can’t control only hurts your peace of mind.

We are seeing more women in the workforce than ever before, but despite reaching high-paying successful positions, women struggle with growing their wealth and maintaining finances. Most of the time, this struggle stems not from the inability to monitor and budget the money; rather, it originates from the lack of education and recourses that are available for young women or women in general. For some, financial education might be Everest, but even the most dangerous mountains can be conquered with the right information, patience, and resilience.

We spend most of our adult lives working to be able to enjoy our retirement but forgetting that life was meant to be enjoyed in the here and now. But what if I told you that you didn’t have to live that way? What if I said you could work smarter rather than harder, retire early if you want to, travel the world, and make all of your dreams for the future a reality?

Written by a practicing emergency physician, The White Coat Investor is a high-yield manual that specifically deals with the financial issues facing medical students, residents, physicians, dentists, and similar high-income professionals. Doctors are highly-educated and extensively trained at making difficult diagnoses and performing life-saving procedures. However, they receive little to no training in business, personal finance, investing, insurance, taxes, estate planning, and asset protection.

Stephanie Kelton's brilliant exploration of modern monetary theory (MMT) dramatically changes our understanding of how we can best deal with crucial issues ranging from poverty and inequality to creating jobs, expanding health care coverage, climate change, and building resilient infrastructure. Any ambitious proposal, however, inevitably runs into the buzz saw of how to find the money to pay for it, rooted in myths about deficits that are hobbling us as a country.

Surveys have consistently found that saving for a child’s college education is the top money concern for parents in the US, with over 70 percent saying they’re worried about being able to pay for their child’s education. Tuition fees are rising year after year, and for many parents, this makes the prospect even more daunting. So, should you just give up and invest in your child’s present, rather than their future? The short answer is no - there’s really no need.

Good insightful read!
This book is the most thorough study of the underserved Tightropers, in contrast to the overserved Safely Stable Americans, I have ever read. Coming from meager beginnings, I enjoyed the deep dive Mr. Rees and his co-author, Ms. Cleaver, took into not just the data but also the stories and motivations behind why Tightropers make certain decisions. Also, the way the authors worked to dispel rumors and long-held incorrect notions about Tightropers. This book will help me personally and professionally explain income inequality to my friends and colleagues in the Safely Stable set of Americans. Thank you both for a good read!
