Her gain is fake. She went from the most unpopular VP in history to universally loved? 😂

She peaked way to soon. They should've dragged Biden along till October. By the time of the election and her word salad cackling nonsense policy has been exposed her political career will be over.

Well….
* I’ve got a job and if need be I feel I could find one with a comparable or possibly higher wage. Jobs are out there.
* Market is doing well as are Americans 401k’s but I hear Truth Social is tanking
* if one owned their house prior to March, 2022 they are sitting on a great interest rate. Interest rates are high at 6.5% for a 30 year fixed but that is historically a very good rate.
* Inflation is under far better control in 2024 than 2023 so that’s trending in the right direction

Groceries and gas definitely cost more but most people are making more $$$ now than pre-COVID.

As for Biden economics, it seems America is doing better than most countries post Covid, particularly China and Russia. Is Biden responsible for it, I don’t think so.

if you RENT pricing is really really high.... and if you bought a house after 21... the price to build in unbelievable high......

so while your current home , you might be able to sell your home a a good price.. but then you have to go find some where else to buy.. see how that goes...

see i guess that is where you and i differ, i see the big picture that doesn't just include me... i look at across America and things haven't been ROSY for MOST people... i mean the number one worry of people in America is the economy... do you agree with that?

Economy is always a major concern and for most the #1 concern - always.

You are old, if you are selling your home you should be downsizing into a small ranch or patio home thus it should cost less and enable you to pocket some of the equity in your existing home while paying for the new one in cash w/ no mortgage - see how that works!

The alternative to your home increasing in value and gaining you equity is not increasing in value or losing value. The vast majority of Americans who own houses purchased prior to March 2022 thus they should have an excellent rate. Those after March, 2022 yes their rate is higher but again? 6.5% 30 year fix is historically a very good rate.

Here is an economic positive, not that Biden/Harris had anything to do with it. New & used car prices are down. The best thing to an inexpensive car payment is no car payment at all. No car payment affords one greater financial freedom(s).

Used car prices fall again in July, down nearly 20% from pandemic highs

Vehicle prices continued a downward trend in July, with the new and used car markets both slipping.

Cars are the greatest example of demand driven inflation. In 2022, dealers were routinely slapping surcharges on top of sticker because they could.
