The BIG We Told You This Would Happen Episode

About this episode

In this episode of The Higher Standard podcast, Chris, Saied, and Haroon dive into the timeless lessons of Robert Kiyosaki's "Rich Dad, Poor Dad," reflecting on the book’s enduring insights into wealth-building strategies. While they acknowledge the value of its principles, the hosts candidly express their mixed feelings about Kiyosaki’s modern-day social media persona, suggesting that his transformation might have taken some of the shine off his original teachings.

➡️ The conversation then shifts gears to current events, where the trio tackles the latest Bureau of Labor Statistics data, followed by a deep dive into the startling news that the U.S. economy created 818,000 fewer jobs than initially reported. They discuss the implications of this revision, including the Fed confronting the reality of potentially losing up to a million jobs in their forecast. On a lighter note, the hosts sprinkle in some pop culture commentary, from Ashanti and Nelly's baby news to the potential $550 million fallout from a rumored Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck divorce, and even a nod to Lil Jon's surprise appearance at the DNC. As always, Chris, Saied, and Haroon deliver sharp insights with their signature wit.
