J. Henderson M: I Work I'm Broke. What
the Hell Happened?

I Work I'm Broke. What the Hell Happened?

Boomers vs. Millennials: Who REALLY Had It Easier Buying a House? 
 
The greatest housing debate of our time explored through data, not opinions. 
 
Was it really easier for Baby Boomers to buy their first home?
 
Headlines. Social media debates. Arguments at dinner tables. It's been talked about forever, and neither side is likely to stop talking any time soon. Baby Boomers remember mortgage rates in the double digits and how they couldn't afford a house until they were in their 30s. Millennials know home prices have skyrocketed, student loan debt is at an all-time high, and there are fewer houses for sale than any other time on record. 
 
Each generation has some legitimate points. But they're also missing some important context. 
 
Boomers vs. Millennials looks at the facts instead of the opinions. Author James W. Lamprey approaches one of the most debated financial topics of our generation objectively and uses hard data to compare how difficult it has been to buy a home for every generation. 
 
Inside you will discover: The role inflation plays in how we think about home prices 
Why mortgage interest rates are more important than you think 
How bigger homes and rising expectations have changed the market 
The impact student debt, wages, taxes, and household expenses have had on Americans over the last five decades 
How comparing $35,000 to $400,000 is ridiculously misleading 
Which generation had it the hardest...and the myths that just won't go away. 
Stop leaning left or right and consider the facts presented in this book before making your own conclusions about how the American dream of homeownership has changed over the years. 
Buy this book whether you're a first-time home buyer, real estate agent, seasoned investor, economist, or you've wondered "who had it easiest?" at some point. 
Because it's not as black and white as Boomers vs. Millennials.

Who Really Had It Easier to Buy A House?

Boomers vs Millennials

This volume (Parts A and B) contains 16 new studies that shed light on key aspects of immigration: the drivers of immigration, the factors fostering or hindering immigrant integration in the host country, and the impact of immigration in the host countries. The studies span a wide range of countries in Europe, North and South America and use novel administrative, regional and survey data to offer insights into historical and contemporary episodes of migration. Together, they enrich our understanding of the determinants and consequences of migration and provide an evidence base for policy discussions.
The volume covers three broad themes. In both Part A and B are eight papers on the integration of immigrants in the host society, focusing on the acquisition of human capital, labor supply, family formation, and returns to skills. Part B also studies the impact of immigration on outcomes that often dominate the public debate, namely employment, education, and crime. Published twice per year in conjunction with the Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) Research in Labor Economics contains new cutting edge peer reviewed research applying economic theory and econometrics to policy related topics pertinent to worker well-being often with an international focus.

Migration, Human Capital and the Labor Market

Knowing what is coming is not enough. This book is about how to survive it. 

The Friction Era is already operating in your daily life - prices climbing faster than wages, institutions you no longer trust, a political system that cannot solve problems it can no longer deny. The question is no longer what is happening. The question is what you do about it.

In this meticulously researched third volume of the America at a Crossroads series, James C. Tanner delivers in While America Burns -- How to Protect Your Family, Preserve Your Wealth, and Position for the Rebuilding of America the specific, actionable guidance the first two books made urgent - how to build genuine financial resilience against inflation and dollar decline, how to secure your family's food and energy independence, how to build the community relationships that matter more than any stockpile, and how to position yourself not just to survive the transition, but to participate in the rebuilding that follows.

This is not a survivalist manual. It is a preparation guide calibrated to the realistic range of disruptions already in motion - written for the household that understands what is coming and is ready to act.

The America at a Crossroads series by James C. Tanner, published by Calico GOLD Publishing, begins with Volume I - The Rise and Fall of America: History's Warning - America in the Crosshairs of Collapse, and continues with Volume II - The Collapse Indicators: America's Debt, Dollar, and Institutional Decline - What Comes Next.

While America Burns

Debasing the price of gold to protect the dollar has failed. A new system is now inevitable. The Western media fixation on Bitcoin--price, memetics, and volatility--ignores the strategic resurgence of gold. The narrative framing of the rise of gold ignores the cause: an underlying structural shift. In 2023 and 2024, Chinese gold imports surpassed most Western central banks' entire holdings. China doesn't need to announce a gold standard. It only needs to create conditions where gold becomes more trustworthy than Western fiat. The shift won't require an edict. It will occur by default, when trust fails and metal remains. The new significance of gold isn't driven by inflation fears or chart patterns--it reflects a tectonic restructure, a repricing of trust. Not trust from the public--but from institutions. Central banks keep buying gold. There was no mania. Just a quiet shift from paper gold promises to physical certainty. Then suddenly the Bank of International Settlements gave the transition a big shove via Basel III. Power is flowing East. China and Russia have drawn in massive amounts of gold while dumping Treasuries. The BRICS will unveil a gold backed e-CNY to compete with the dollar. Simultaneously, they are forcing the US debt back home in exchange for real assets, choking the Fed/Treasury on the mountain of paper, and grabbing the financial power. This momentous shift is already underway Western banks, lacking the gold to cover their obligations, are increasingly trying to financialize the problem. A Chinese edition of the original edition of Gold Wars was published by the prestigious Shanghai Jiao Tong University Press.

Emergence of a Multipolar Monetary Order

Gold Wars

Over the last fifty years, the American economy has been transformed-and not by accident. Since the mid-1970s, a coordinated project by corporate leaders, wealthy elites, lobbyists, and policy intellectuals has quietly rewritten the rules of the U.S. economy. The result: more than $79 trillion has been shifted upward from the bottom 90% to the richest households, wages have stagnated despite decades of rising productivity, and entire communities have been left precarious, indebted, and insecure.

The Heist tells the story of how this happened-and what it has done to the people who were left behind.
Drawing on economic research, historical evidence, and clear, accessible analysis, Mark M. Orton shows how financialization, monopolization, deregulation, tax policy, weakened labor power, and deliberate political capture combined to redirect the gains of growth to a small elite. From the Powell Memo to the rise of private equity, from stock buybacks to the collapse of antitrust enforcement, Orton traces the mechanisms of upward redistribution in vivid, concrete detail.
Far from inevitability, this new economic order was engineered-step by step, policy by policy, deal by deal. 
The Heist explains how:CEOs and financial firms extracted value through buybacks, LBOs, and debt-fueled predation
Corporations rewrote tax policy to shield trillions
The decline of unions and worker bargaining power hollowed out the middle class
Monopolies in tech, finance, retail, energy, and healthcare reshaped markets and prices
Political influence, dark money, and lobbying blocked reform and entrenched inequality
Ordinary Americans absorbed the risks-precarity, debt, insecurity, and declining prospects


Clear-eyed, urgent, and deeply researched, The Heist exposes the mechani

In I Did Everything Right So Why Am I Still Struggling?, Michael J. Henderson exposes the often-hidden realities behind the American dream. With deep personal insight, Henderson shares his journey and the lessons learned from doing everything that society promises will lead to success working hard, studying diligently, and following the rules only to face continued struggles.

This compelling book is a critical examination of the economic systems that shape our lives. Henderson argues that hard work alone does not guarantee success, and that the structures we rely on are rigged against the very people who contribute the most. Through an exploration of debt, opportunity, meritocracy, and class, Henderson demonstrates that the true barriers to success are systemic, not personal failures.

I Did Everything Right So Why Am I Still Struggling? is more than just a memoir it is a powerful social critique that challenges readers to rethink the promises they were taught about success. It is an invitation to stop internalizing failure and start understanding the forces at play. Henderson calls for a shift in perspective, urging readers to recognize the difference between individual effort and structural inequality.

This book is essential reading for anyone questioning why the rules they've followed for success seem to fail them, and for those seeking to understand the broader forces shaping their lives. It's a thought-provoking exploration of what happens when the American dream doesn't deliver-and how to reclaim your power in a system that doesn't reward effort equally.

I Did Everything Right So Why Am I Still Struggling?

Dieses Buch erzählt eine große Geschichte, die Jahrtausende alte Geschichte der Wirtschaft. Vom Beginn der landwirtschaftlichen Revolutionbis zur Digitalisierungdeckt es die&nbsp;verborgenen wirtschaftlichen Kräfte hinter Krieg, Innovation und sozialem Wandel auf. Es zeichnet nach, wie der Kapitalismus und das heutige Marktsystem entstanden sind, und stellt die wichtigsten Ideen und Menschenvor, die die Wirtschaft für immer geprägt haben. Andrew Leigh hebt die Vielfalt dieser vermeintlich trockenen Disziplin hervor, erklärt, warum die Erfindung des Pflugs die Ungleichheit zwischen den Geschlechtern verschlimmert hat, warum Wolkenkratzer zuerst in amerikanischen Städten entstanden, wie das bekannte Brettspiel Monopolyentstanden ist und vieles mehr.Kommen Sie mit auf eine unterhaltsame, erhellende Reise zu den ökonomischen Ideen und Kräften, die unsere Welt bis heute prägen!"Wenn Sie nur ein Buch über Wirtschaft lesen, dann Andrew Leighs klares, aufschlussreiches und bemerkenswertes (und kurzes) Werk. Erfahren Sie, warum wir reicher sind, länger leben, gesündere Kinder haben, enorm produktiver und glücklicher sind als unsere Vorfahren." - Claudia Goldin, Wirtschaftsnobelpreisträgerin
"Dieses "kurze" Buch strotzt nur so vor Erkenntnissen über die Wirtschaft, illustriert durch einprägsame Geschichten und historische Ereignisse. Menschen, die neugierig auf die Wirtschaft sind, aber von ihr verwirrt werden, werden aus diesem Buch genug lernen, um ein Leben lang mit ihr vertraut zu sein. Andrew Leigh ist nicht nur ein fesselnder Autor, er ist auch charmant und unterhaltsam - etwas, das man nicht von allen Wirtschaftswissenschaftlern behaupten kann." - Caroline M. Hoxby, Professorin für Ökonomie an der Stanford University"Leigh nimmt den Leser mit auf einen fesselnden Streifzug durch die Schlüsselmomente der Weltwirtschaftsgeschichte, die zu den heutigen Volkswirtschaften rund um den Globus geführt haben. Es ist eine unverzichtbare Lektüre für jeden, der die heutige Wirtschaft verstehen will." - Betsey Stevenson, Professorin für Wirtschaftswissenschaften an der University of Michigan

Die kürzeste Geschichte der Wirtschaft

Unternehmer gelten oft als gierig, rücksichtslos oder sogar gefährlich. Dabei sind sie das Gegenteil: Sie sind der Motor für Fortschritt, Innovation und Wohlstand für uns alle.Weiying Zhang, einer der renommiertesten chinesischen Ökonomen, ist der profilierteste Verfechter der Marktwirtschaft in China. Seit 40 Jahren beschäftigt er sich mit dem Thema Unternehmertum. Er zeigt in seinem einmaligen Werk, warum wir dazu neigen, Unternehmertum völlig falsch zu verstehen - und warum das enorme Folgen für Politik und Gesellschaft hat.Unternehmer haben in der Geschichte der Menschheit immer wieder gewaltige Probleme gelöst. Die vielleicht größte Gefahr für unseren Wohlstand ist, dass diese Tatsache in Vergessenheit gerät. Denn viele Ökonomen sehen im Unternehmer immer noch eine Art Rechenmaschine: jemanden, der rational abwägt, wie knappe Ressourcen am besten eingesetzt werden. Das hat, so Weiying Zhang, nahezu nichts mit der Wirklichkeit tun. Unternehmer sind eher wie Kreative, wie Künstler.Unternehmertum ist viel mehr als Gewinnstreben - nämlich die kreative Kraft, die aus Unsicherheit Zukunft macht. Das erklärt, warum selbst Big Data niemals Unternehmer ersetzen kann, weshalb Industriepolitik - genauso wie die Planwirtschaft - immer scheitert: und zwar an der Annahme, wirklichkeitsfremde Politiker und Beamte wüssten besser als Millionen Unternehmer und Konsumenten, was die erfolgversprechendsten Innovationen der Zukunft sind.Dieses Buch ist eine leidenschaftliche Verteidigung des Unternehmers - gegen Neid, Vorurteile und ökonomische Irrtümer. Wer von Grund auf verstehen will, wie Märkte wirklich funktionieren und warum Wohlstand ohne Unternehmertum nicht denkbar ist, findet hier eine ebenso fundierte wie inspirierende Antwort.Ein hochaktuelles Buch in einer Zeit, in der sich der Staat immer öfter mit planwirtschaftlichen Methoden in das Leben der Menschen und Unternehmen einmischt.

Fortschritt, Innovation, Wohlstand

Unternehmer sind nicht das Problem, sie sind die Lösung
