| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the win-make-give podcast season three. This has been Kenny. I'm joined here |
| 0:16.5 | with Chad Himes. Hello Ben. And Bob Stewart. No ladies and gentlemen. Once again, he ditched |
| 0:25.5 | it happens. It's just the Chad and Ben show today, which is good because there's no math. |
| 0:34.2 | There's maybe there might be. Ladies and gentlemen, |
| 0:38.0 | if you would have saw the last couple recessions coming, would you have done something different? |
| 0:45.5 | Would you have not bought something? Would you have not spent that money? Would you have not hired |
| 0:51.2 | that person? Would you have doubled down in other areas? Would you have not sold that house? |
| 0:56.2 | What are the things that you would have done if you saw something coming and you could actually |

| 2:02.7 | inflation of like 1.7% to 2% annually, all of a sudden to 8%, almost 9%. It's just crazy what happened. |
| 2:12.1 | Well, when you print money and give it to everybody, that's what happens, ladies and gentlemen. |
| 2:17.3 | Amen. You have a problem. So what the government does when things like inflation get out of control, |
| 2:24.8 | they try to taper it down by increasing interest rates. Traditionally, the government overcompensates. |
| 2:36.4 | Yep. And it'll overslow the economy, which will put us into a recession. |
