The November Election & the Beginning of Act 2
In May of 2023, I published a podcast episode to warn that I felt we were moving out of the Opening Act into Act 1 of this economic nightmare. I believe the November election will usher in Act 2. What exactly will this look like? I dunno. Quite frankly the information I'm hearing is not good.

Getting Your Mind Right in a Down Economy
Once you've done all that you can, what's the point in panicking or getting super pessimistic? Anything we accomplish starts with a thought. If we get into a negative thought loop and we expect disaster all the time, guess what? That's what we'll get.

Should You Jump Through Hoops for a Job or a Freelance Client?
With layoffs and a less than stellar economy, prospective employers expect candidates to go through longer and more frustrating hiring processes. Likewise, some clients will expect freelancers to jump through hoops to gain a project. So what to do? Should you go along with this? If so, how far?

Crossover Episode: "Money for Nothing: Inside the Federal Reserve"
Crossover Episode for both The Causey Consulting Podcast and con-sara-cy theories.
I recently watched the documentary Money for Nothing: Inside the Federal Reserve. Depressing? Yes. Surprising? Not really. We hear all sorts of outrageous claims from the fat cats who claim they want to protect us.
