Brian Wiley takes on one of the most frustrating issues facing Americans today — the ongoing government shutdown — and what it reveals about our collective financial vulnerability.

With nearly two-thirds of Americans living paycheck to paycheck, Brian explores how even a short-term disruption in income can send households into crisis mode. Through candid listener calls, including a 29-year-old air traffic controller working without pay and a retired veteran frustrated with misuse of social benefits, the show dives into the human side of financial resilience.

Brian connects it all back to planning, explaining the BetterBuckets™ strategy for building liquidity, stability, and long-term growth. He also explains why having at least three years of cash reserves can turn chaos into confidence! Plus, Brian discussed more on the rise of AI and job security risks, offering practical steps to stay financially adaptable no matter what comes next.
