The Get Ready for the Future Show

Peter Schiff is warning of a U.S. economic crisis that could make 2008 look like a “Sunday school picnic.” But is this a serious signal… or just another headline built to grab attention?

In this episode of the Get Ready For The Future Show, we break down:
• Peter Schiff’s track record on economic predictions
• Whether rising gold prices signal a true collapse
• What the data actually says about corporate profits and productivity
• Why fear-based investing can cost you long-term returns
• How disciplined investors should think during alarming headlines

There’s no shortage of market crash predictions in today’s news cycle. The real question is: What’s the catalyst? And should long-term investors change course every time someone cries wolf?

At GenWealth, we believe in playing the long game — not reacting emotionally to every prediction.

Your Roth IRA isn’t just for retirement income—it can be the perfect bucket for future big purchases. Learn why it’s often best to keep it more aggressively invested and how it fits into your overall withdrawal strategy.

Here’s what we cover:

✅ The impact of losing 401(k) contributions if you drop to part-time
✅ Special options like COBRA to bridge the gap before Medicare

If you or your spouse are wondering whether to keep working just for the benefits, this conversation will help you weigh the trade-offs.
