recent report came out a recent report came out and and so this is what i'm going to do just so y'all know this i'm going to read this report but a lot of you all come to me and this is what i've learned man a lot of you really don't understand certain things and so what i'm starting to do is go back and really teach this at a kindergartner level i'm not trying to be disrespectful to anyone but i do want to make sure that you understand exactly what's happening because i've realized that sometimes myself and other individuals in the space we can go over your heads and some of y'all need to understand okay wait wait wait can you take me back to the basics so i can really understand what's happening and then we can elevate and then we can go from there and so that's what i'm going to do i'm going to read this report and then i'm going to take it to the basics of okay exactly what does this mean so for those of you all who are like "oh my gosh anthony i mean give me some practical." just just just skip this video all right uh go deeper no no i'm go basic so everyone can understand this because with me being in the college space now being a professor a lot of my students are watching this and a lot of 18 year olds and 20 year olds are watching this and they don't understand what even is a recession so let's break down this article this article uh came out uh and let's talk about it it says several indicators are hinting that recession risk for the us economy might be greater than previously feared now again remember we don't operate off of fear the atlanta federal reserves model recently suggested that economic growth might be negative in q1 of 2025 okay so those of you all who don't know basic common sense q1 means in january february and march by the end of march there they are projecting that it will be a negative in the economy in addition parts of the yield curve i'm going to break down the yield curve here in a little bit have reinverted and consumer confidence declined in february predictions prediction market um kowi is currently estimating watch this a 40% chance of a recession in 2025 pause now now now it's jumped up recently right before i think it was right around like 25% 25 30% but we had a pretty much a 10% jump now watch this 40% is still not the majority so there is still a strong possibility right strong possibility that we may avoid a recession i was reading some of the comments earlier and y'all was saying "well we're already in a recession because we're feeling it." no no no no you're you're you're you're feeling people being fearful but we're not technically in a recession and i'm going to give you all like three or four warning signs that you all need to be monitoring to know okay wait are we getting closer to a recession because i i' i've done the research i'm 40 years old i've i've lived through a couple of them so i understand what what's tracking towards that so stay tuned i'm going to give you that information but i also wanted to make sure that i'm reading uh this report so we all we have we have a foundation on where to start all right so uh on this report it says still a 40% chance still implies that a recession is most likely avoidable right this combination of signals is likely to be sufficient to predict that a recession is coming in 2025 but the the risk are currently rising okay so this report this this report right this report y'all can't see it cuz my camera just came out here this week and i said man i really wasn't feeling well but i really want to break this i want i really want to break this down for for all of us all right so we got to talk about it we we we we have to talk um about this because one thing my father taught me years ago was that proper prior planning prevents poor performances and so a possible recession in 2025 can happen all right a lot of experts are are seeing warning signs but most people have no clue no clue what they what what that really means or how it could affect your pockets so this morning before i go out here and try and play about nine hoes of golf i'm trying to get more active get back into being active um i'm going to be breaking down in simple and real life terms and giving you a game plan to protect your money all right so listen i'm about to break this down of okay what does how does this how does this report h how how does this impact my home not not not not how do we how do we uh um um read the support no no no i again how do we take this information and apply this to my everyday living number one i want to break this down because again um i have a lot of my college students on here watching um a lot of us don't even really know what a recession is and so i want to give the realw world explanation all right so recession is when the economy slows down for a long period of time it means fewer jobs available prices all right on some things uh may go up and we call this inflation uh people and businesses spend less money some businesses may close for an example i have a business and i could close not saying that that's happening but i could close so i really want you to think of it like this if your job stopped giving raises your bills got higher and your friends started losing their jobs would you feel the pressure that's what happens on a big scale when it comes to a recession all right so i want to give you all the warning signs because we're not in it now all right we're not in it right now but what are the warning signs and why should we even care about these warning signs because a lot of y'all saying "man i'm i'm feeling it now i've already see it now." no no what we're feeling is inflation inflation is not a recession all right but here's the number one sign remember earlier in this report it talked about uh the the the the yield curve the inverted yield curve so here's the very first sign um bond market market behavior all right what is a bond market behavior what it means is normally long-term investments long-term investments um grow more than short-term investments but right now what we're seeing is a little bit of short-term investments are paying more than long-term ones so why does this matter to us let me tell you why because every time this happened in the past a recession followed it's like when dark clouds roll in before a storm y'all ever walked outside and and and and and you looked up you looked up it was dark clouds and when you saw dark clouds it may have been hot outside um you see you didn't see not one drip of rain but when you see dark clouds you know rain or a storm is coming now it's not 100% guaranteed because there has been some times i have seen a dark cloud come with no rain but we all know what follows a dark cloud all right so again i'm giving you the information i'm going to give you the application here's the information sign number one so not sign number one y'all put that in the chat i'm not even looking at the chat right now because i want to make sure that i give you all this information and not get sidetracked all right here's sign number two people are spending less people start spending less money walmart came out with an article that projected that they're they're estimating close to about like a 200 to $400,000 decrease in spending why is this important for us to understand well walmart is the central like the middle the the median the go-to point for the average person in america it's not target target is a little more expensive than walmart so the average middle class person shops at walmart for groceries for e even for pharmacy and so walmart is projecting that yo we're actually we possibly may lose money compared to last year this is because they're seeing that people are spending less so when people are worried about money what happens they stop spending on things like vacations like new clothes like eating out like buying cars so why does this matter to us because watch this when businesses start making less money what comes next they start laying off employees when they start laying off employees what comes after that people spend less money and then it's a cycle say this one more time if businesses are making less money as a business owner if i'm not making as much money i got to let people go on my team when i let people go on my team what happens to them they got to stop spending money when they stop spending money that means less money is being made on the business side i got to lay off more people when i lay off more people they stop spending and then boom it happens again it is a cycle so that's sign number two people are spending less money here's sign number three more people are starting to file for unemployment because when people start losing their jobs and applying for help we have a problem why does this matter because if companies are laying off people now it's a warning sign that things might get worse here's sign number four sign number four i'm giving y'all four signs the stock market it's starting to act a little funny what does this means what does this means what does this mean it's such a such a i get this question asked a lot right um i don't really get fearful of the stock market because the stock market is going to go up and down the stock market is going to be good then it's going to be bad it's going to be good it's going to be bad it's going to have good months bad months good years bad years good days bad days and this sometimes shows that investors are a little nervous about what's coming but here it is um why is it important for you and i i tend to watch the big investors when big investors start getting a little nervous then i'm like "okay wait a minute something is starting to happen." it's a sign that regular people like you and i should be paying attention to so if you have debt interest rates might go up making it harder to pay off if you have a job companies may start cutting back on hiring or even laying off people if you want to buy a house or a car um it could be more expensive especially if you're borrowing money if you have investments you might see your 401k or stock market accounts drop a little bit but do not take your money out okay but in short this is the realness that this is the realness that i can i can say it goes back to what my dad taught me close to how am i now 40 close to now 30 years ago my father woke me up woke me woke my sister my little brother up i was six i think i bet was like no no no i was eight i think i bet was six and my little brother was three and he's he wrote on the board the six psor planning prevents poor performances is proper prior planning prevents poor performances so in short you guys if we are not prepared a recession could mess up our finances a job loss could mess up our finances if if if we're not um um um positioning ourselves for what could happen we cannot scream at nobody we can't yell at the white house we can't yell at this administration we can't yell at nobody else while yes i i i got my thoughts on this administration i'mma leave it there right but i have my thoughts on a past administration i have my thoughts on the on the administration before that heck i had my thoughts about president barack obama right you know what i'm saying so there's not one administration that i have not had some thoughts on it on that administration about but here's the truth i'm still getting some kind of income and it is still my responsibility to make sure that i'm doing the best that i can do with the income that i have so if this article is a sign that there's a possibility that something is coming and if we're not stewarding our funds correctly now because if we see what did the article say the article said that the atlanta federal reserves model recently suggested that economic growth might be negative in q1 this means we're not even breaking even it's negative this is not a sign of oh my gosh we're in a recession this is a sign of yo we better be prepared for what's coming so i i want to give y'all this i want to give y'all this and listen real quick before i

evolving in abundance wellness and financial freedom and so i'm really excited about that so we're going to be good let me give you these things on what you can do to protect yourself here's the very first thing you need to do to protect yourself is you got to build your emergency fund here's step number one step number one i need you to set aside right now 3 to six months of your net pay so you can survive if something happens to your income listen to me clearly i have been teaching this for years i remember when i was on the ramsay team here years ago man i can't believe it's been almost five years right and i remember a lot of people like "oh my gosh this this ramsay stuff doesn't work this ramsey stuff doesn't work." but then when covid happened it was like everyone was like "yo this ramsay stuff works." like man i should have been listening i should have had you know three months of expenses inside this i should have did this i should have had no debt because what happened was when the world shut down when life happened people was like "yo i got all this debt but i don't have i don't have income coming in." because let's forget let's not forget money flows two ways it flows in and it flows out it's always going to be flowing out we're always going to have a mortgage payment a rent payment um utility bills we're always going to have some bills so what i want you to do that if life was to happen if life was to happen let me tell you this again if life was to happen it feels good knowing okay i got three months of my net pay why did i go from expenses to net pay this is my thought not knocking no one else's method hear me clearly uh because methods work my preference is i want three to six months of my net pay i have i've actually put aside 12 months of my average net income inside of a high yield savings account and here's why some of the worst decisions i've ever made some of the worst decisions i've ever made when it came to my money was when my back was against the wall and i had no money and so if life was to happen it feels good knowing that if i had to shut down my business i have 12 months you will have three months to live the same life you've been living live that same life while you're figuring out what you can do and can i be real with you all i mean no disrespect to my white brothers and sisters but black people we are some of the most creative group of people so within 90 days we can find a way to make some more money for us but what happens is we tend to fall into debt we tend to ruin our life because we have nothing saved now we got to get creative within 24 hours so i want you all to if you have i'm telling y'all i'm telling you if you do not listen to me do this because this is not me trying to flex let me be real with you this is me this is me not trying to flex but when covid happened your boy wasn't stressing why because i i live below my means my mortgage payment was only $1,200 that wasn't even 15% of my income i had at that time i had like six months of my savings account six months in my savings account high yield savings account watch this that six months was bringing me in about about $100 a month so i was using that money to eat i was getting creative and i was living below my means and so let me put this link inside of there uh let me put this link inside of there i'm put this inside of htps um uh uh high hya account high yield savings account 4% plus watch this plus they're going to give you $300 if you open up this account today all right you got to use my link to get that $300 all right all right so i just put it inside of the chat for those of you all who are watching the rerun i'm going to put it inside of today's show notes if you go over to sofi and if you open up a checking and savings account right and have like 5% 10% directed into your uh checking account and then have that move over into the savings account you'll get that 4% they're going to give you $300 today $300 for just opening up the account this is free money this is 100% free money so open up the savings account put three to six months of your net pay anthony well what what does this mean for us let me tell you what this means for you all right i want you to stop spending on things that are unnecessary because if this article if this article comes to life there's no excuses for you if you didn't prepare for it because i'm talking about it and i'm breaking all this stuff down hey i'm cutting back one of my home girls i was talking to on the phone yesterday um um of course you know i have a different lifestyle right and i'm blessed and i'm and i'm and i'm grateful for it but i can't be telling y'all to do something that i don't practice so i i've even shifted up on some things within my own personal life i've been spending i was like "yo i i got to practice what i'm preaching too so i'm cutting back on certain things and putting more money inside of my high yield savings account and making sure that i'm prepared that if life was to happen i'm i am truly prepared for it." so here's number two i want y'all to start paying off some of your debt man i need y'all to get aggressive hear me clearly i i need y'all to stop financing credit cards god dang on it yo the average credit card look at this the average credit card interest payment in america today is at 28.6% what it is at 28.6% i don't care if you got a 800 credit score the average credit card is 28.6% so this means for every $1 that you spend you're actually spending $129 do the math for every $1 you spend you're spending $129 if interest rates go up credit card debt will get even more expensive so now this is the time this is the time to pay off your credit card debt this is the time to pay off all your debt all right let me bring y'all over here to my website so what i'm going to do i have a free tool a free tool all right on my website you come over to anthony o'neal we're actually updating this website we're making it even better with free resources we're going to be dropping a blog and article breaking down everything um um for all your information if you come over here to

then it's going to calculate it for you then after that you'll come over here and get the debtree guide all right because this is the time y'all i need y'all to get real aggressive i need you to get aggressive about eliminating your debt this is 100% free so let me go ahead and put this inside of the um inside of it inside of it all right debtree guide again i'mma go ahead and uh debtree guide debtree calculator yeah calculator and guide it's 100% free i'm going to put that inside of there i'm going put that inside of there all right so get that that's 100% free uh here's step number three i need y'all to start a side hustle okay extra income right now means extra security i want you to find ways to make sure that you can make money outside of your 9-5 this is something that i've told my team listen i've even helped some of them transition from working for me as a w2 income p person and releasing them to go even build even more but moving them over to contractors right watch this watch what's happening here i'm moving them over as contractors still doing everything they were doing for me as a w2 employee paying them a little less but giving them back more time to go build something that they 100% earn well how does this help both of us well on their side now they get they get the benefit of tax write-offs when i pay them now they can use their office their home office as a tax write-off me i don't have to pay employee tax and i'm paying them a little less but i still get the write off but i'm still getting the work that i need they don't have to give me 40 hours a week but they can go build something because right now this is not about me having employees this is about how do i build a successful business but then also how do i build the people who are close to me and position them to win so i'm teaching them how to be entrepreneurs how to be owners and still serve and help me but go and build something that your family can own like i move just a little different and i'm okay with how i move it and here's step number four last one is you got to be smart you got to be smart with what you're spending on right now i need y'all let me give you one more i think yeah i need y'all to cut i need y'all to cut unnecessary expenses because if a recession does hit us you do not want to be drowning in bills some of you all are thinking about getting a brand new car if your car is running right now if your car got ac and heat do not get a car some of y'all are thinking about doing you know start paying for your summer vacation still going on a summer vacation but maybe for doing two weeks maybe you do a week before we spend money on anything this is something that i stressed yesterday in fort lauderdale before we do anything in that area y'all this is what this is what i need y'all to do cover your finances all right make sure that you got 3 to six months parked inside of a high yield savings make sure that you're starting to eliminate your debt make sure that you're positioning yourself to live below your means and just make sure you have your priorities in order once you have those things in order y'all go enjoy i would just hate to see you i would hate to see you i would hate to see life happens because what's the worst case scenario anthony did this video the atlanta feds gave us this this this article that kind of startled us a little bit what's the worst that can happen you got some extra money in your savings account and you have less bills that's the worst thing that can happen what's the best thing that can happen this does hit you got a savings account and you have less bills here's the last thing i need y'all to keep investing but i also need you how do i say this i need you to keep investing but also be strategic i don't need you all panicking i don't need you pulling your money out of your investment account and putting it up underneath your bed no i need you to make sure that your money is in a smart and investment perspective i'm partnering with a company um now and i'm just making sure that that we're we're aligned in different things and we're meeting this week but i'm partnering with a company uh

uh with my school uh virginia union university and other h.b.cu that'll be coming soon but i wanted to make sure that i got that so when we roll out this this part of my business that that man this is solid information because i'm i feel called to to people of color and i'm closing out here i'm i'mma pull up the chat but i feel called to people of color i love serving everybody but black people

all do i want to make a living and eat and make good money absolutely but one thing i've learned that if i serve enough people and help enough people money is going to come money's going to come i i believe that and god's been blessing me for four and a half five years on my own and thank you to everyone who's been who's been rocking with me while i'm on my own and i just felt convicted that if
