In this episode of The Roth Guy, we’re excited to welcome a very special guest, former U.S. Comptroller General David Walker. With decades of experience serving under both Republican and Democratic administrations, Walker is here to share his expert insights on America's fiscal health.

From the staggering national debt to the hidden tax of inflation, Walker breaks down complex economic issues in a way that's easy to understand and paints a sobering picture of what the future could look like if current trends continue. He warns that without significant changes, the US could face slower economic growth, increased taxation, and even the potential loss of the U.S. dollar as the world's reserve currency.

What can we do in light of this outlook? Join us for part 2, where we’ll explore actionable steps you can take to prepare for whatever lies ahead.

 

Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:
