If the dollar collapses don’t be fooled your debts doesn’t disappear, they add it back to the new currency or mode of barter. best advice get out of debt. make regular investments be debt free and financially stable
Safest approach i feel to go about it is to diversify investments. By spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown. its important to seek the guidance of an expert

Dems or Reps, they would have had to do it anyway. They are not giving up anything that they can hold on to. Other countries are already starting to move away from the dollar little by little.
If they address debt with it, then it's a good idea. Yes, their purchasing power might go down, but if debt is dealt with, there will be no economic nuke waiting in the future.
That might be true for countries trading from their local currencies to the dollar but even the pressure on the US side will be at best negligible and at worst cause Inflation in single digits

Not to mention dollar devaluation and inflation are completely indistinguishable from each other. Trump spent the last 4 years blaming Biden for inflation (while ignoring Trump's own reckless spending in 2020,) campaigned on Biden's economy being inflationary, and now he's proposing inflating/devaluing the dollar, which is exactly what inflation did the last 4+ years.
@@Meton2526 Inflation takes time to kick in, by the time it happens, his term will be over and he can blame whoever is in charge. It worked against Biden, most Americans blamed Biden for inflation and were nostalgic for the economy as it was under Trump. Most people just don't understand that inflation happens years after it is set in motion, you can't just blame it all on the current president.
No it depends. If your country is export-oriented (eg. China's), then devaluing is better. If your country is import-oriented (eg. USA's), you'll want a stronger currency. Trump and his goons never took a class in economics and dont know why free trade is so important so I'm not surprised. I'm more sad at how this is what democracy comes to: lettings idiots who dont know economics vote for an idiot president who also dont know economics
@@fr2ncm9 It's not even good in small amounts. The best system for the average median citizen is free market, free trade, laissez-faire capitalism. International trade manipulation and tariffs just make everyone worse off.
@Meton2526 yeah laissez-faire capitalism in the US, because that was definitely good the last time we did that... (hint: there's a reason companies now have regulations to prevent monopolies)
Remove dollar reserve status and devalue it: 1) countries will dump dollars and stop buying US debt. 2) inflation skyrockets as everything that isn't 100% made in the US becomes more expensive 3) since people don't want to lose money they stop buying US debt and try to only redeem it instead 4) US can't offload its debt obligations under those conditions so it loses value in the private/secondary market 5) US can't service its debt so only option is double down and devalue more so that the debt will also get cheaper 6) US dollar loses substantial amounts of value people salaries but much less than before 7) US still too expensive compared to 100 other countries that have still much cheaper labor cost 8) export oriented companies that sell to people paying in other currencies make lots of money. Not too great
Well put! Plus the population is addicted to consumption and spending as the govt is. To become a somewhat savings-oriented and export oriented economy will involve a sea change in lifestyle as well. Tough times ahead.
Tariffs will decrease the value. Not only will the tariffs cover the “bought off debt” but will also add more to our gdp because trump repatriated $1.5 trillion as president plus he will deport millions of illegals which only 10% of illegals have a bank account. Less US$ hostage. 2/5 debt ceilings in us history happened under Biden & 4 if you count his VP days. 0 republicans voted to raise debt ceiling both times & 0 republicans voted for inflation reduction act. Why did salaries drastically increase in the mid 20th century when tax rates fell off huge time? That’s why our gdp became the number one in the world. All tax brackets lowered & wages/labor participation sky rocketed. USA has #1 disposable income per capita. If it was more expensive than the world average then I’d be scared but it’s far from world average.
"BRICS" hasn't been trying to do anything, because BRICS isn't a real thing. There's no alliance, no policy agenda, not even a trade agreement. It was a collection of developing markets that one securities analyst thought in the early 2000s would outperform the US equity market, and he was wrong, since those nations' stock markets have failed to keep up with the S&P 500. BRICS just is not a real thing dude.
Since he will focus a lot on immigration, he will need to spend a lot of money to fix the problem and that will increase US debt. It's hard to increase productivity and cut costs without some significant restructuring.
The dollar is literally being destroyed / debased / devalued. The best performing asset in the history of the world is BITCOIN. It is by far the best store of value. 10 years from now you’ll be thankful for every dollar you put into it.. My two cents.

2:20 overvalued currency also increases the wages and international purchasing power of your citizens. It's strange how no one mentions that. So, with a weaker dollar, Americans would no longer have double the salaries of Japanese or ~40% higher salaries than Europeans. Overvalued currency also increases GDP and GDP per capita, btw, so dollar losing value would mean Mississippi would no longer have higher GDP per capita than the UK.
The only American who won't acknowledge this Administration's failed economic policies is Joe Biden. "Shrink-flation' is the least of our worries compared to rising rents and stagnant wages, but it is an undeniable indicator of how bad our inflation has gotten. I have $100k that i like to invest in a non-retirement account, any advice on that?
I would avoid index funds, mutual funds, and specific stocks for the time being. Right now, the best option is a fixed income of five percent. Put money aside for the times when the market really starts to bounce back.
It's often true that people underestimate the importance of financial advisors until they feel the negative effects of emotional decision-making.

It's an investment strategy to export more goods and reduce the cost of living, government spending and debt, and the need for a federal income tax, which may be painful for a few years but have benefits with longevity. The current system may work today but its future looks bleak; should we continue the status quo, inflation will continue at a pace that gives our competitors a constant opportunity to undermine our economy, forcing us to import their increasingly overvalued goods beyond their point of affordability but not necessity, and that has arguably already occurred under the current administration. Drastic times call for drastic measures and the people have spoken.

America's political obsession with bringing back manufacturing is crazy. Even if they did lower the value of the dollar, it's not like there is a massive population of cheap, unskilled labor to compete with manufacturing powerhouses like China. America really needs to lean into its service and educated industries, things like tech, finance, pharmaceuticals, higher education, etc. That's what keeps it so rich today, and abandoning those sectors for manufacturing is idiotic.
Because America is a geographically and demographically huge country where it is too big to function as a service-driven economy with an anti-intellectual tradition so bringing back manufacturing does make sense from the cultural and geopolitical standpoints.

Why is the only answer to raise wages? What if something really simple, like policies that reduce energy costs so the cost of everything goes down.

Trump wants to get rid of Keir Starmer, get the Tories back into power and turn the UK into a Tory dictatorship. Also, the US wants like 10-20% import tariffs against everyone, including the UK.

No one wants to buy our products because they are too expensive? Even the US citizens don't want to buy our own products because they are too expensive. If we could buy Chinese cars we would. There are so many taxes, regulations, and costs so high that virtually everyone is reaching into our pockets on a daily basis. We are the most taxed country in the world. Devaluing the dollar will just hurt lower income Americans. This guy talks out of both sides of his mouth. Who are we going to sell our exports to in a shrinking global market with companies paying even higher tariff costs? And with China's manufacturing overcapacity & technological prowess dominating the rest of the world as a much cheaper alternative? The G7, and West has greatly overestimated their global influence and errored in underestimating BRICS capacity to compete at a level that threatens US hegemony. De-industrialization in the US was pushed by capitalists back in 70's & 80's & 90's because they wanted CHEAPER products. They sold out our industries to have cheaper goods and there is no bringing those industries back.
@jovemgafanhoto4512 Exactly my point. Trump and many of the neo-cons believe forcing the rest of the world to pay even MORE for our already expensive products is somehow going to "force" or compete in an enviroment where there are cheaper & better options not just from China but worldwide is so dense & foolish I don't even know where to begin. It's not reading the temp of the room. The only thing the US exports these days is DEBT (bonds) & Hollywood entertainment. These type of decisions will only make inflation skyrocket which won't affect the ultra rich in our country one bit as they share a laugh over Champagne & caviar. It's easy to see how they could be so far removed not to SEE this reality. I'm ashamed our foreign policy has been all carrot & stick for the last 50 years has achieved nothing but countless dead around the world for us to only lose in the end. We aren't isolating ourselves, we alienated ourselves with our own actions. What a disgrace. We are collapsing like the Soviet union did but just much slower decay.
By the way, what Trump doesn't understand, as what happened in 1929, other countries can build a tariff wall against the US, limiting the markets they have access to. Should Trump unilaterally build a tariff wall, other countries will trade more with eachother and make economic trade blocs that will exclude the US. No economy is an island.

No, devaluing is decreasing the demand for your currency, making it worth less because of what other nations perceive the value of your currency is based on what they can get for it or if other countries will accept your currency for trade transactions. Inflation is making your currency worth less by printing so much of it that it is essentially worthless. Inflation is one way a currency can get devalued, another way is that your country doesn't make things that people need, or they make it at a price that nobody wants to pay.
trump speaks a lot of $hit in rallies. We must focus on his actions rather than his word. Ain't no way he's gonna impose broad tariffs on every imported goods. Do you think his buddies in tech like Elon musk, Peter thiel etc, who are very much reliant on china are gonna allow him to do that?. what he'll do instead is impose retaliatory tariffs on countries that have tariffs on american goods like he did in his first term. Tbh he is right in this. Plenty of countries around the world have access to american market to sell their goods. But have closed off their domestic markets to american companies and goods. Trump wants to correct this lopsided arrangement and he is totally right in this.
@@sathvikraomp2006 "what he'll do instead is impose retaliatory tariffs on countries that have tariffs on american goods like he did in his first term." That's not all he did in his first term. There are cases where he simply added tariffs and justified them by using various excuses, for example his steel and aluminum tarifs.
@Brained05 Steel and Aluminium are very important for the economy. You don't want to be relying on china for those. It always make sense to have strategically important goods produced domestically. Just like how biden did it with chips act for the manufacturing of semiconductors. It's probably way cheaper to just keep importing them from Taiwan and china. Despite that biden used billions of dollars of tax money to subsidize chips companies to setup manufacturing in US. Why because it's a critical good for the economy. Same thing trump did with Steel and Aluminium.
Americans who are angry at the trade deficit should come to my country, we have a trade surplus 😊 then they'll realize we have that only because we are so poor we cannot afford to buy anything not because we produce a lot. 😂😭😭😭

@@idkwhattonamemyaccount4161 I think J.D. Vance might have economic reasons for wanting to devalue the dollar, but even if this turns out to be a good move I don't trust that Trump wants it for sensible reasons. He's usually only right by accident.
As long as the US is import dependant, a weaker USD is not the smartest idea. US products are not bought internationally not only because of their price. Often their quality is poorer than their competitors', and more often than not, small businesses do not export.
Bruh the primary way for a nation to become an exporting nation is to weaken your currency. Every single thing you are saying is exactly because the dollar isn't weak.
With the amount of unsustainable consumption the US has, I wonder how it'll go if they don't import as much. Will the citizens of materialism country accept less and more expensive consumption? Will China finally overtake the US in the tech industry as they struggle to manufacture any kind of competitive chip inland?
The U.S. economy can actually get better if only Trump's govt can start making better decisions for the sake of it's citizens, cos' they've really made life more difficult for its residents. Hyperinflation has left the less haves bearing the brunt of the burden. Its already eating into my entire $620k retirement portfolio. Like where else can we invest our money with less risks?
Just get a financial planner straight up! personally, I would invest in etf and also love investing in individual stocks. yes it’s riskier but I'm comfortable in my financial environment.
I agree. Exactly why I now work with one. A lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their emotions, no offense. I remember some years back, during the covid-outbreak, I needed a good boost to stay afloat, hence researched for advisors and thankfully came across one with grit. As of today, my cash reserve has yielded from $350k to nearly $1m

Thanks for the advice. The search for your coach was simple. I investigated her well before using her services. Considering her résumé, she appears competent.
If the dollar collapses don’t be fooled your debts doesn’t disappear, they add it back to the new currency or mode of barter. best advice get out of debt. make regular investments be debt free and financially stable
Safest approach i feel to go about it is to diversify investments. By spreading investments across different asset classes, like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown. its important to seek the guidance of an expert
A lot of folks downplay the role of advlsors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications.

Is there any chance you could recommend who you work with? I've wanted to make this switch for a very long time now, but I've been very hesitant about. I'll appreciate any recommendation.

President Trump pledged to revive the US coal industry in 2016. By the time he left office, production had fallen by 1/3.
Yes. Trump doesn't understand that manufacturing isn't coming back. However a weaker dollar will be great for him and his asset owning friends.
It's a con, nothing more or less. The US population is being sold down the river.
America is importing nation. Weaker currency would mean very high inflation for imports.
That’s what Trump wants so that Americans buy American also the USA is not an ‘importing nation’ as it is the number 2 exporter globally.
If they address debt with it, then it's a good idea. Yes, their purchasing power might go down, but if debt is dealt with, there will be no economic nuke waiting in the future.
That might be true for countries trading from their local currencies to the dollar but even the pressure on the US side will be at best negligible and at worst cause Inflation in single digits

Not to mention dollar devaluation and inflation are completely indistinguishable from each other. Trump spent the last 4 years blaming Biden for inflation (while ignoring Trump's own reckless spending in 2020,) campaigned on Biden's economy being inflationary, and now he's proposing inflating/devaluing the dollar, which is exactly what inflation did the last 4+ years.

If there's one thing, i learnt in Economics class, that is devaluing your local currency never works out great for the country's citizens.
No it depends. If your country is export-oriented (eg. China's), then devaluing is better. If your country is import-oriented (eg. USA's), you'll want a stronger currency.

Remove dollar reserve status and devalue it:
1) countries will dump dollars and stop buying US debt.
2) inflation skyrockets as everything that isn't 100% made in the US becomes more expensive
3) since people don't want to lose money they stop buying US debt and try to only redeem it instead
4) US can't offload its debt obligations under those conditions so it loses value in the private/secondary market
5) US can't service its debt so only option is double down and devalue more so that the debt will also get cheaper
6) US dollar loses substantial amounts of value people salaries but much less than before
7) US still too expensive compared to 100 other countries that have still much cheaper labor cost
8) export oriented companies that sell to people paying in other currencies make lots of money.
Not too great

Tariffs will decrease the value. Not only will the tariffs cover the “bought off debt” but will also add more to our gdp because trump repatriated $1.5 trillion as president plus he will deport millions of illegals which only 10% of illegals have a bank account. Less US$ hostage. 2/5 debt ceilings in us history happened under Biden & 4 if you count his VP days. 0 republicans voted to raise debt ceiling both times & 0 republicans voted for inflation reduction act. Why did salaries drastically increase in the mid 20th century when tax rates fell off huge time? That’s why our gdp became the number one in the world. All tax brackets lowered & wages/labor participation sky rocketed. USA has #1 disposable income per capita. If it was more expensive than the world average then I’d be scared but it’s far from world average.

"BRICS" hasn't been trying to do anything, because BRICS isn't a real thing. There's no alliance, no policy agenda, not even a trade agreement. It was a collection of developing markets that one securities analyst thought in the early 2000s would outperform the US equity market, and he was wrong, since those nations' stock markets have failed to keep up with the S&P 500.

America's political obsession with bringing back manufacturing is crazy. Even if they did lower the value of the dollar, it's not like there is a massive population of cheap, unskilled labor to compete with manufacturing powerhouses like China. America really needs to lean into its service and educated industries, things like tech, finance, pharmaceuticals, higher education, etc. That's what keeps it so rich today, and abandoning those sectors for manufacturing is idiotic.
Most Americans think it's the 1950s. There's pretty much no hope for the future because very few people in this country will embrace the modern era.
Because America is a geographically and demographically huge country where it is too big to function as a service-driven economy with an anti-intellectual tradition so bringing back manufacturing does make sense from the cultural and geopolitical standpoints.

The increasing prices have impacted my plan to retire at 62, work part-time, and save for the future. I'm concerned about whether those who navigated the 2008 financial crisis had an easier time than I am currently experiencing. The combination of stock market volatility and a decrease in income is causing anxiety about whether I'll have sufficient funds for retirement.

What’s funny is Trump still wants USD to be world’s reserve currency 😂
Its stability not the price why dollar is the world reserve currency
Economics is not your strength
that wont change - Chinas economic figures have been inflated by around 25% every year since 1960 - their economy is much smaller / weaker / vulnerable than it seems. Cant use their currency as reserve - India is lol, no - Russias economy is more beaten than ukraine, so no. GBP - No - Euro? Honestly its the most likely of the lot and thats still unlikely. US $ Is in a strong position - even weakening that position doesnt necessarily boost the others currencies out from their 1960's-now lies or full blown war.
@@Beresunablle intentionally devaluing the dollar erodes that stability. It's literally the reason why the RMB is not used in any significant amount as a reserve - because of manipulation by the central government to encourage exports.
He also wants US to dump dollar and adopt BTC. Rest of the world should still use dollar, like would do it.
America wants to sell ... okay. But why has it to be abroad? Have they ever considered that internal consumption can stabilize you much more? What do you have to do for that? ... Ah well ... raise the wages so more can be consumed. But they also don't want to do that. I don't see "America first" here only "Pocket first" maximize the profit margin while impover the own population. In other words ... economic self-destruction leading ultimativly to societies self-destruction.
Why is the only answer to raise wages?
What if something really simple, like policies that reduce energy costs so the cost of everything goes down. Or removing parasitic regulations that inhibit competition and reduces costs. Could one perhaps remove millions of workers that are indentured servants to the cartels?
Would that make up for not increasing wages?
@@joshua43214 Efficiency and productivity are already maxed out. It is time to optimize the consuming side.
@@joshua43214energy cost can be reduced by investing in alternative energy sources, making US more resistant to global commodity markets like oil and gas. Trump wanted to do the exact opposite.
Removing millions of able body workers decrease the supply of everything. Food, houses, groceries. Less supply= high prices. How will people afford anything without wage increases?
Devaluing the dollar and tariffs increase inflations and feds have to respond with higher interest rates to control prices. These lead to mass layoffs to several sectors.

What was the burden on our infrastructure higher or lower when we imported temporary labor for particular projects? Did those lower infrastructure burdens increase of decrease our quality of life.

Do heavy import tariffs really increase our cost of living, or our cost of wanting? Are those costs balanced by lower overall costs of cheaper energy? Lower taxes?

Things are strange right now. The US dollar is becoming less valuable because of inflation, but it's getting stronger compared to other currencies and things like gold and property. People are turning to the dollar because they think it's safer. I'm worried about my retirement savings of about $420,000 losing value because of high inflation. Where else can we keep our money?
Personally, I would say have a mentor. Not sure where you will get an experience one, but if your knowledge of the market is limited, it seems like a good bet.
Due to my demanding job, I lack the time to thoroughly assess my investments and analyze individual stocks. Consequently, for the past seven years, I have enlisted the services of a fiduciary who actively manages my portfolio to adapt to the current market conditions. This strategy has allowed me to navigate the financial landscape successfully, making informed decisions on when to buy and sell. Perhaps you should consider a similar approach.
Your advisor must be really good. How I can get in touch? My retirement portfolio's decline is a concern, and I could use some guidance.
Finding financial advisors like Melissa Terri Swayne who can assist you shape your portfolio would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.

That's before the tariffs. Any benefit from a weaker currency goes away when you have to increase the prices for the tarriffs.
Yet, the real victims are going to be americans. They will have their salaries devaluated and have to pay for the tariffs, which will rise since they are proportional to thep rice.
Trump wants to get rid of Keir Starmer, get the Tories back into power and turn the UK into a Tory dictatorship.
Also, the US wants like 10-20% import tariffs against everyone, including the UK. So going on holiday and buying from Amazon would become more affordable, but for the rest Trump would be disastrous for the British economy.
What isn't great either for the British economy is Western EU countries turning Russian fascist/Ruscist. Especially if the US becomes isolationist and closes the door to European exporters.
It truly is the era of disappointment, cynism and people playing the blame game rather than solve their own business.
We dont all want to just go back to the factories like its the 50s, which ironically was cleaner then even without regulation because of all the plastics in everything nowadays.
How many 20 or 30 year olds do you know would sign up if thry knew theyd be breathing in and dealing with microplastics and other so called dirty factory work?? Not many people. Im 30, everyone my age or younger want to work nice university degree required jobs.
Im not talking 100 % of americans but we will never compete with china on such a scale. We need to continue to focus on high tech!
I'm not against factory work so much as the exploitation. Working yourself half to death just to be unable to afford the thing you just made would drive me nuts. Not to mention all the stories about amazon workers having to piss in bottles and the likes.
AND, its not the factory jobs that makes money. its the jobs that requires a degree. Engineering, doctor, tech. Thats the shit that makes money. and on a national level. Making plastic toys and shit is not making money. its the tech. like Nvidia is worth 4 trillion.
Exactly.
My point is that people are not aspiring to work 6 day weeks at the plastics faxtory down the road, and if they were its only because the pay and benefits are _SO GREAT ITS UNREAL_ aka wouldnt happen.

Investing with an expert is the best strategy for beginners and busy investors, as most failures and losses in investment usually happen when you invest without proper guidance. I'm speaking from experience.
He can either keep the dollar as reserve and preserve American hegemony OR devalue the dollar. He cannot do both.
He doesn't decide to keep the dollar as a reserve currency, other countries do. If they think that Trump will devalue or inflate the dollar, those other countries will dump the US currency and it will no longer be needed as a reserve currency.
Deadass learned about weak/strong money yesterday lol
No one wants to buy our products because they are too expensive? Even the US citizens don't want to buy our own products because they are too expensive. If we could buy Chinese cars we would. There are so many taxes, regulations, and costs so high that virtually everyone is reaching into our pockets on a daily basis. We are the most taxed country in the world. Devaluing the dollar will just hurt lower income Americans. This guy talks out of both sides of his mouth. Who are we going to sell our exports to in a shrinking global market with companies paying even higher tariff costs? And with China's manufacturing overcapacity & technological prowess dominating the rest of the world as a much cheaper alternative? The G7, and West has greatly overestimated their global influence and errored in underestimating BRICS capacity to compete at a level that threatens US hegemony. De-industrialization in the US was pushed by capitalists back in 70's & 80's & 90's because they wanted CHEAPER products. They sold out our industries to have cheaper goods and there is no bringing those industries back.
@jovemgafanhoto4512 Exactly my point. Trump and many of the neo-cons believe forcing the rest of the world to pay even MORE for our already expensive products is somehow going to "force" or compete in an enviroment where there are cheaper & better options not just from China but worldwide is so dense & foolish I don't even know where to begin. It's not reading the temp of the room. The only thing the US exports these days is DEBT (bonds) & Hollywood entertainment. These type of decisions will only make inflation skyrocket which won't affect the ultra rich in our country one bit as they share a laugh over Champagne & caviar. It's easy to see how they could be so far removed not to SEE this reality. I'm ashamed our foreign policy has been all carrot & stick for the last 50 years has achieved nothing but countless dead around the world for us to only lose in the end. We aren't isolating ourselves, we alienated ourselves with our own actions. What a disgrace. We are collapsing like the Soviet union did but just much slower decay.
By the way, what Trump doesn't understand, as what happened in 1929, other countries can build a tariff wall against the US, limiting the markets they have access to. Should Trump unilaterally build a tariff wall, other countries will trade more with eachother and make economic trade blocs that will exclude the US. No economy is an island.
The US being the most taxed country in the world?? Lol
@@orlandopena1624 Yes. Absolutely. One only has to look at the sheer amount of regulatory law or just the general tax code. The word count & page count is much more than other countries. The US has insidious taxes for EVERYTHING. And then look at the actual amount we pay in taxes compared to the rest of the world vs what we receive in return which as best as I can tell is nothing but inflation these days. We have shite public services. Entire US states are cities are debt loaded and on the verge of bankruptcy and what do we have to show for it? Very little.

“Devalue the dollar” - inflation
No, devaluing is decreasing the demand for your currency, making it worth less because of what other nations perceive the value of your currency is based on what they can get for it or if other countries will accept your currency for trade transactions.
Inflation is making your currency worth less by printing so much of it that it is essentially worthless.
Inflation is one way a currency can get devalued, another way is that your country doesn't make things that people need, or they make it at a price that nobody wants to pay.
He doesn't need to make dollar weaker. He can make it effectively weaker by imposing tariffs on industrial goods

what he'll do instead is impose retaliatory tariffs on countries that have tariffs on american goods like he did in his first term.
