The 401k is a failed experiment. Taxes are the single greatest threat to retirement security. Governments are desperate to cash in when Baby Boomers pass on their wealth. How do you grow wealth in a world where rising taxes and market crashes are the New Normal? How do you escape a status quo heading for a meltdown? That's why we created Crashes & Taxes - a place for everyday wealth builders like you. Hosted by Rebecca Walser, Top 100 US Advisor, a Tax Attorney and Wealth Strategist. Together we'll challenge the status quo of crashes, taxes and politicians that keep us from growing our wealth.
Market Update: Job Cuts, Currency Turmoil, and the Hidden Truth About Interest Rates
There are so many things happening on the financial front that are being obfuscated by mainstream Wall Street news. As more things become unsettled and untethered, we’re going to see pivotal changes in the economy.
And no one is talking about it…
From the constant revisions of jobs numbers, to the market’s optimism about rates going down, there’s a concerted effort to represent the economic situation in a more positive light than it actually is.
But the latest trends are giving us a much needed reality check and reminding us that the market isn’t as great as the mainstream media is presenting it. Asset bubbles are going to burst, AI is going to further impact jobs, and we still have a massive currency shift ahead of us.
Despite what Wall Street is telling you, I believe we’re already in a recession, and after the election, we’ll start to get the true economic data.
In this episode, I give you a market update and share the biggest concerns in the economy right now.

Japan’s Carry Trade: The Crisis That Could Still Topple the Economy
The event that will finally prick and burst the global asset bubble can come from just about anywhere. The unwinding of Japan’s precarious carry trade situation might just be the thing to push us over the edge.
For decades, Japan’s Central Bank has been funding itself by leveraging lower interest rates and paying money at short-term floating rates.
The problem is, Japan has now been forced to raise some of their investments to a higher credit risk and a much higher probability of default. The fix could be more damaging than the original problem.
We saw the market react to this and the jobs report in July. Wall Street wants you to think that the problem has already rectified itself but those were the rumblings of what’s to come. Japan’s carry trade situation is far from over, and it will impact the entire economy. Add to that, the US election, the threat of a massive internet disruption and a new pandemic, and you’ve got a recipe for major upheaval.
Why is Japan’s carry trade issue a huge warning sign to the whole world? Why should we brace ourselves for some volatility leading up to the US election? In this episode, I give a market update and share what to expect as we get closer to the 2024 Presidential election.

W.H.O.'s Sneaky Plan To Take Away Your Freedom Is Already Working
In 2020, The World Health Organization was able to augment its authority and encroach into the rights and medical autonomy of individuals. Now they have the ability (and permission) to dictate the health policy of whole nations.
This is the beginning of global governance and the end of national sovereignty, and it will happen under the guise of a strengthening pandemic preparedness. At some point, it felt like WHO could be kept in check, but considering the recent changes, many countries are okay with this happening.
Through the amendments to the International Health Regulations, WHO’s ability to dictate medical protocols has never been more pronounced and that should concern us all.
What does this mean for our medical autonomy? In this episode, I continue talking about the convergence of all things and today I share what’s going on with The World Health Organization and why it’s problematic.
