Jason and Herman examine the gap between economic data and how people actually feel about their finances, exploring why younger generations report growing financial insecurity despite statistical improvements in wealth and home ownership. They dig into the role of social comparison, content consumption, and shifting lifestyle expectations in shaping our perception of prosperity.
