For decades, Americans have been told to follow the same financial blueprint
Work hard. Save consistently. Max out your 401(k). Keep money in the bank. Trust the system.
But what if the greatest wealth transfer happening today isn't from Baby Boomers to Millennials?
What if it's from the middle class to the institutions?
In this episode of Scriptures & Wall Street, Carlos Cortez Jr. explores one of the biggest questions facing today's investors Do you actually own the assets you think you own? From inflation and banking laws to retirement accounts, digital finance, cryptocurrency exchanges, and institutional investing, Carlos examines how the financial landscape is evolving and why understanding ownership may become just as important as investment performance.
The discussion also looks at the role of inflation as a "hidden tax," why traditional retirement strategies may no longer be enough, and how changing financial systems are creating new challenges for retirees. Along the way, Carlos shares lessons from more than two decades in retirement planning, emphasizing diversification, principal protection, and long-term stewardship over emotional investing.
No matter where you are in your financial journey, this episode encourages listeners to ask a simplebut criticalquestion
Do you know what you truly own?
Because building wealth is important.
Understanding how to protect it may be even more important.
