One of the things that I'd like to start with, and it's the biggest question that everybody wants to know from our listeners is they see the national debt. It's in 30 plus trillions of dollars. And they want to understand, hey, is that a threat? So I just wonder if you could just start right there. The way I address it in understandable economics is I can't get my head around the difference between 10 trillion, 20 trillion, 30 trillion. It all sounds like an inconceivably large number to me. So what I do in the book is I break it down on a per person basis and per American, it's $68,000. I know exactly what $68,000 is. I can get my head around it. I can decide if it's too much or too little.
Ever feel overwhelmed by the world of finance? You're not alone.
