Are millennials truly rich, or is it all just phantom wealth? In this week's episode of the 280+ Podcast, we break down the buzzworthy concept of "millennials’ phantom wealth" and dive into the surprising realities behind the numbers. From skyrocketing net worth to the struggle of paycheck-to-paycheck living, we explore how inflation, assets, and financial literacy shape the millennial experience.
But that’s not all! We also tackle Starbucks' big changes, including their return to ceramic mugs and handwritten names, and what that means for their business model. Plus, get our thoughts on immigration reform, ICE raids, and their impact on the economy. And for sports fans, catch an exciting conversation on Cam Newton's perspective on MVPs vs. championships, an NFC/AFC championship recap, and predictions for the Super Bowl.
