Ever notice how “competition” can quietly turn into a handful of mega-companies owning everything? In this episode we start with a simple gas-station curiosity—Chevron owning Texaco—and use it as a springboard to talk about consolidation, corporate power, and how everyday people get nickeled-and-dimed through “convenience” economics.From there, we zoom into personal finance and financial literacy:▶ Why credit card rewards often don’t beat the 2–5% swipe fees baked into prices▶ The difference between revenue vs. net income (and why “big numbers” don’t always mean big profit)▶ A surprising shoutout to Harbor Freight’s 0% financing and what it signals about serving working people▶ The real cost of homeownership today: interest rates, down payments, and PMI▶ What Rich Dad Poor Dad (Robert Kiyosaki) gets right about assets vs. liabilities and lifestyle creep▶ Why “passive income” isn’t truly passive—and what realistic options can look like (laundromats, car washes, storage, online businesses)We also talk about the psychology of money: why cash triggers emotion, how deals get made (and lost), and why the rich often win because they stay non-emotional and play the long game.📚 Book discussed: Rich Dad Poor Dad — Robert Kiyosaki👍 If you got value, subscribe, like, and comment—we read and respond.Not financial advice.
