| 0:00.0 | Welcome to our new segment. It's called PSA Thursday. We are, as you know, currently in |
| 0:06.2 | very tumultuous times. There's a worldwide pandemic, there's a bear market, we're poised |
| 0:11.2 | ahead into our recession, and a lot is changing very quickly. And so every Thursday, for the |
| 0:16.9 | foreseeable future, I'll be rolling out this new segment called PSA Thursday to discuss |
| 0:23.1 | best practices for handling these times. So we're going to talk about the financial side, |
| 0:27.7 | how to invest in a bear market, how to handle the fact that our recession is almost inevitable, |
