The average age of U.S. homebuyers has soared to 56, proving that owning a home now requires both age and a level of patience previously reserved for waiting in line at the DMV. Saied, Chris, and Haroon hilariously dissect this trend, blaming skyrocketing home prices, nosebleed mortgage rates, and a painfully thin housing inventory for forcing younger buyers to stay on the sidelines—or back in their parents’ basements.
➡️ With a cocktail of sharp humor and real talk, the hosts unpack how these shifts impact everything from family planning to the American Dream itself (spoiler: it’s expensive). They also debate whether "strategic investing" is just code for "hope and prayer" in this market. Tune in as they turn these bleak economic trends into laughs while giving you the lowdown on navigating the financial jungle without losing your sanity—or your sense of humor.

They reveal why unemployment figures don’t tell the full story—especially when they ignore discouraged workers and the rise of multiple job holders struggling to keep up. And if you’re a government worker in D.C., brace yourself—layoffs are coming. The duo also tackles housing market hysteria, debunking the doomsday headlines with hard data. ➡️ Then, Uncle Jamie (Dimon, that is) drops some *spicy* leaked audio, slamming remote work as an efficiency killer. Is this about productivity, or just a clever way to push employees out? Chris and Saied weigh in. And in classic Higher Standard style, they wrap up with a deep dive into workplace dissatisfaction, hybrid work struggles, and why your mindset might be the biggest factor in your job satisfaction. 💥 Have you left your "honest ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️" review? 👕 THS MERCH: http://www.thspod.com 🔗 Resources: Unemployment spikes in Washington, D.C.

나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요This week, Chris and Saied tackle the latest inflation print that came in hotter than a tiger del fuego—and yes, that’s the official economic term now. With prices climbing for consumer staples like eggs (who knew you should’ve invested in chickens?), we dissect what this means for rate cuts, the Fed’s next move, and whether we’ll all just resort to eating cardboard to save money. And if you thought the government was on top of things, think again—because even regulators are scratching their heads over the latest CFPB drama. A federal agency created to protect consumers is basically getting ghosted by Washington, and let’s just say… crypto bros are very excited about this development. ➡️ But wait, there’s more! We break down the absurdity of credit card interest rates, why Home Alone 2’s Plaza Hotel suite now costs more than a used car, and the potential impact of Elon Musk’s secret Visa deal. Plus, Saied relives a scandalous youth basketball championship game that involved bad reffing, technical fouls, and one very dramatic post-game car ride.

나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요In this mind-expanding episode of The Higher Standard, Chris and Saied take a detour from their usual financial deep dives to expose the sinister underbelly of human decision-making. Turns out, the economy isn’t broken—our brains are. From Robert Shiller’s Narrative Economics to Jonathan Haidt’s The Anxious Generation, the duo unpacks how financial markets, political ideologies, and your everyday spending habits are more influenced by viral stories and social media hysteria than by any rational thought process. Long story, short: You’re probably not making financial decisions—you’re reacting to the subconscious cues planted in your head by algorithms, dopamine hits, and good old-fashioned tribalism. ➡️ And just when you thought you were in control, they hit you with The Chaos Machine by Max Fisher, a book that details how social media isn’t just ruining dinner-table conversations—it’s actively rewiring your brain for extremism and anxiety. From doomscrolling mortgage rate headlines to being emotionally blackmailed into buying gold, Chris and Saied reveal that the only way to escape the manipulation matrix is to step back, slow down, and—dare we say—think. But hey, no pressure! If you’d rather stay plugged into the fear factory, there’s always another viral headline waiting to tell you the economy is collapsing. 💥 Have you left your "honest ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️" review? 👕 THS MERCH: http://www.thspod.com 🧊 Get 12% off any purchase at Ice Barrel (Excludes chillers) 🔗 Resources: The Mortgage Rate Reality Sets In (Yahoo!

Strap in, folks! This episode of The Higher Standard dives into the mind-bending world of quantum computing, where traditional computers look like toddlers trying to do calculus compared to these futuristic behemoths. Chris and Saied break down how these machines are poised to change finance, security, and possibly the way your toaster thinks about bread. They also take a moment to discuss actual science before spiraling into side rants about social media trolls, the American dream, and why nobody really understands what venture capitalists do. Spoiler alert: It involves a lot of money and just the right amount of arrogance. ➡️ Of course, it wouldn’t be The Higher Standard without a healthy dose of banter. Saied gets existential about how much control private equity really has over the economy, while Chris exposes his deep-seated frustration with home prices and tax loopholes. They also take a moment to roast each other over everything from past financial missteps to the secret lives of CEOs who think they’re rich but are actually just playing in the minor leagues. Oh, and if you've ever wondered whether a broom by the front door is just "decorative" or a sign that witchcraft is officially taking over the household—Saied has some thoughts.

나중에 재생 나중에 재생 리스트 좋아요 좋아요The Jeff Goldbum of podcasting, Chris Naghibi, and the Louie Anderson of podcasting, Saied Omar, are back, and this time they're tackling the economy with unfocused and unstructured charm. Starting with a light-hearted critique of Chris' newfound love for wearing green—a strategy he swears is to win favor at home but admits has been a complete flop. From there, the duo launches into the harsh realities of wage stagnation and rising home prices, painting a vivid picture of how even modest salary increases are devoured by the ever-growing beast of inflation. They break down why the average American is essentially on a financial hamster wheel, running faster but getting nowhere. ➡️ Amid the numbers and economic analysis, Chris and Saied keep it relatable with personal anecdotes, like Chris recounting his transition from being overly sensitive to criticism to leaning into the jokes—a move that’s made life a lot more enjoyable (even if Saied insists he still hasn’t fully let go). The conversation turns to actionable advice, encouraging listeners to take charge of their financial futures by stepping out of their comfort zones and treating financial growth like fitness: intimidating at first, but life-changing with consistency. If you’ve ever wanted a masterclass in turning financial stress into a strategy, this episode is your comedic and educational golden ticket. 💥 Have you left your "honest ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️" review? 👕 THS MERCH: http://www.thspod.com 🧊 Get 12% off any purchase at Ice Barrel (Excludes chillers) 🔗 Resources: These boys went so off script, there are no links.

Happy New Year! In this special year-end episode, Chris and Saied dive deep into the wild ride that was 2024, recapping the economy quarter by quarter with their signature mix of insight and banter. From the "pensive" start of the year where the Fed played cat-and-mouse with rate cuts to the real estate market's affordability crisis and the Magnificent Seven’s domination of Wall Street, this episode is packed with more twists and turns than a rollercoaster at an abandoned theme park. Whether it's debating AI's transformative potential, lamenting high mortgage rates, or pointing out the "Jersey Shore" dynamics of the Federal Reserve, Chris and Saied break it all down with wit, wisdom, and the occasional mocktail reference. ➡️ As they toast to a new year (mocktail in hand), the duo doesn't shy away from discussing the highs and lows of 2024, from soaring office vacancies to spiraling service costs. And as tradition dictates, they leave you with a little financial humor to ring in 2025: "Remember, folks, economic resolutions are like gym memberships—great in theory, but it’s the follow-through that counts! Stay sharp, stay savvy, and don’t let inflation shrink your New Year’s champagne budget." Here's to another year of keeping it real, financial nerds.

With a 25 basis point cut to the Fed Funds rate, inflation still refusing to play nice, and the bond market throwing a full-on tantrum, it’s clear: the Fed’s decisions are anything but boring. Oh, and don’t miss Chris’s hot take on how housing affordability has officially hit “you-can’t-make-this-up” levels of absurdity. Spoiler alert: the 10-year Treasury and your dreams of a lower mortgage rate aren’t on speaking terms. ➡️ From the VIX spiking a jaw-dropping 74% to why shrinkflation has you paying more for less Doritos, the duo dives into why markets have gone wild. Is the Fed’s “data dependency” just another way of saying “we’re winging it”? And what does this all mean for you, dear listener? Whether you’re a seasoned investor or someone just trying to figure out why eggs are still so damn expensive, Chris and Saied deliver insights with their signature blend of smarts and sass.

In this episode of *The Higher Standard*, Chris and Saied unpack why breaking that six-figure milestone is such a struggle and how even Charlie Munger (RIP) called it a "b*tch." But once you hit that $100K, things start compounding faster than your excuses for skipping leg day. It’s like flipping a switch to rocket toward $1 million – or so we tell ourselves between sweet cream nitros and existential dread. ➡️ The boys also explore childhood money habits that might be sabotaging your wallet and dive into the *Case Shiller Index* to understand the warning signs of recessionary bubbles. From historical asset crashes to the 2008 housing crisis, they highlight why economic indicators are more than just fancy graphs. Saied’s expressions are priceless – equal parts shock, dread, and "I need a drink." So buckle up, hit play, and see if you’re on a path to wealth or just another bubble waiting to burst.

Buckle up, folks—it's a wild week for the economy, and The Higher Standard crew is here to navigate the chaos so you don’t have to. Chris and Saied tackle the avalanche of data from the ISM, JOLTS, and the much - anticipated Jobs Report. (Haroon is still out on paternity leave.) Will these numbers flex harder than a bodybuilder at the beach, or are cracks starting to show? And don’t worry, Fed Chair Powell made sure to sprinkle some cryptic wisdom into the mix, like a monetary-policy Gandalf reminding us that "You shall not politicize!" ➡️ Meanwhile, the housing market predictions for 2025 are wilder than a Florida hurricane forecast. With Sun Belt cities building apartments like they're going out of style, rents are dropping faster than your self-esteem at an open mic night. And the predictions? They range from Apollo's optimistic “We’re all gonna be rich!” +10.8% to Moody’s pessimistic “Yeah, no” at -0.4%. Which regions will boom, and where will your real estate dreams get a reality check? Tune in to get the laughs, the insights, and maybe a crystal ball for 2025! 💥 Have you left your "honest ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️" review? 👕 THS MERCH: http://www.thspod.com 🧊 Get 12% off any purchase at Ice Barrel (Excludes chillers) 🔗 Resources: Fed Chair Powell Defends Fed Independence (Investopedia) Rents in Southern and Sun Belt Cities Are Falling (Business Insider) Realtor.com Predicts Modest Rise in Home Sales and Prices for 2025 (Business Insider) Housing Price Predictions Across Major Markets (Lance Lambert via X) Will Home Prices Crash in 2025?

Whole Foods hot bars? 🍳 Yes, it’s that kind of episode. Starting with some playful banter about overpriced turmeric shots and parental leave policies (because Haroon is off becoming a “baby-making legend”), the hosts quickly shift gears to tackle the high-stakes world of corporate leadership. Chris gets real about his week of legal battles, emotional highs, and the unrelenting stress of balancing family life, work pressures, and the occasional existential crisis. All while trying to figure out if he’s genetically predisposed to being weak. (Thanks, 23andMe!) ➡️ The duo dives deep into the art of authenticity, unpacking why being your true self at work and on social media is a game-changer in today’s hyperconnected world. From Chris defending the misunderstood GLP-1 weight loss meds to Saied advocating for tough morning workouts that reset your day, the conversation is as educational as it is entertaining. 🔔 P.S. Happy Thanksgiving!
