In the final installment of this three-part series, Darryl Lyons, CEO & Co-Founder of PAX Financial Group, takes a deeper look at the widely discussed predictions of a potential market downturn in 2030. Rather than leaning into fear, headlines, or doomsday forecasts, Darryl breaks down the four major forces that many believe could collide: government spending, inflation, demographic shifts, and a potential AI bubble. Darryl also discusses the “Chicken Little” voices that have been calling for market catastrophe for decades, spotlighting the dangers of linear thinking, pessimistic modeling, and predictions that ignore innovation, human behavior, and historical resilience. With a practical and level-headed approach, he discusses why long-term investors often benefit from focusing less on fear and more on building durable plans designed to navigate uncertainty. In this episode, Darryl covers: The four “cars in the intersection” that fuel 2030 crash predictions. Why pessimists are rarely held accountable for bad forecasts. How linear thinking skews market narratives. The potential risks behind government spending and demographics. Why AI could be transformative - even if parts of it become a bubble. Five practical steps for navigating uncertainty. If you missed Parts I and II, be sure to go back and listen so you can follow the full conversation from start to finish.

In this episode of the Sunlight Tax podcast, I dig into the real impact of Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) services on spending habits and financial health. These “pay-later” plans may seem harmless, but they can quietly lead people, especially young consumers—into cycles of debt and financial stress. I break down how BNPL changes the way we think about money, what the long-term risks are, and why financial education is one of the most effective tools for protecting yourself. Research shows that learning even the basics of personal finance can save you tens of thousands of dollars over your lifetime.   Also mentioned in this episode: 02:00 Introduction to Personal Finance and Consumer Culture 04:15 The Dangers of Buy Now, Pay Later Services 06:37 The Importance of Personal Finance Education 09:49 The Value of Financial Literacy 12:28 Building Wealth Through Smart Financial Habits 15:11 Conclusion and Call to Action   If you enjoyed this episode, please rate, review and share it!

Trends brengt deze week een artikel over de zware crisis in de Europese chemiesector. Die was ooit het kloppende hart van de Europese economie, maar kreunt nu onder de hoge energieprijzen en de zwakke vraag. Ondertussen klinkt de roep om politieke steun steeds luider. Zo deed INEOS-baas Jim Ratcliffe zelfs een oproep om de Europese chemie te redden. Jozef Vangelder, journalist bij Trends, duidt wat er aan de hand is.

Is the “2030 Depression” really inevitable - or just overhyped? In this continuation of his three-part series, Darryl Lyons, CEO & Co-Founder of PAX Financial Group, dives deeper into the predictions surrounding a potential economic downturn and examines the four “vehicles” that could collide to create it: government spending, inflation, demographic trends, and the AI bubble. Building on Part 1's historical parallels, Darryl unpacks how rising national debt, compounding inflation, shrinking birth rates, and market speculation around artificial intelligence are shaping today's financial landscape. Using his “traffic light” analogy, he illustrates how these forces might intersect - and what that could mean for investors and everyday Americans alike. Whether you're concerned about what's ahead or simply trying to separate fact from fear, this episode encourages you to question the doomsday narratives, stay informed, and maintain a long-term perspective grounded in wisdom and clarity. Key Highlights from the Episode •           The “four cars at the intersection” driving economic risk: government spending, inflation, demographics, and AI. •           How compounding inflation is widening the gap between the “haves” and “have nots.” •           Why declining birth rates and aging leadership may create long-term economic pressure. •           The warning signs of an AI-driven market bubble - and lessons from the dot-com era. •           Why fear and greed still dictate market behavior - and how to stay grounded amid uncertainty.

Elke dinsdag analyseert en becommentariëert econoom, ondernemer en Trends-columnist Peter De Keyzer de belangrijkste economische vraagstukken. Vandaag hebben we het over de nakende crisis in de Europese chemiesector. Jim Ratcliffe, de top-man van Ineos, trok vorige week nog eens voor de zoveelste keer aan de alarmbel, ditmaal met een rapport van Oxford Economics. Volgens dat rapport daal de chemische productie in Europa tot het laagste niveau in tien jaar. De sector krimpt, jobs verdwijnen, en Europa dreigt zijn chemie-industrie kwijt te raken. Laten we meteen in het onderwerp duiken. Peter, kun je ons kort uitleggen wat dat rapport van Oxford Economics precies zegt, wat zijn de voornaamste bevindingen over de Belgische en Europese chemie?

Falling mortgage rates are reshaping the housing market—are you ready to guide your clients with confidence? In this episode, Mike Mills sits down with Steve Barton, EVP of Sales at Service First Mortgage, to break down what Fed rate cuts really mean for Realtors. Discover the strategies you need now to help buyers and sellers make smart moves in a shifting market.Episode OverviewRealtor strategies for falling rates take center stage in this episode of The Texas Real Estate & Finance Podcast. Mike Mills and guest Steve Barton dive into how Fed policy, bond markets, and mortgage rates intersect—and why Realtors must understand the difference between Fed rate cuts and actual mortgage pricing.Listeners will learn:Why emotions drive the market as much as economics.How buyer affordability shifts with even small drops in rates.Why sellers must rethink concessions vs. price reductions.Realtors are asking: “How will Fed rate cuts affect mortgage rates in 2025?” This conversation unpacks that question, while also tackling inventory, inflation, and database management. If you've been waiting for clear, Realtor-focused insights on when to act—and how to guide clients through uncertainty—this episode gives you a playbook.Key Takeaways1. Fed Cuts ≠ Mortgage RatesSteve explains why Fed rate cuts don't always mean lower mortgage rates. Realtors must watch 10-year Treasury yields and market reactions to truly understand rate movement.2. Affordability Shifts FastEven a half-point drop in rates can expand buyer power significantly. Realtors should prepare clients now so they're ready to act when opportunities open.3. Seller Strategy: Concessions Over Price CutsMike and Steve emphasize that seller concessions often deliver greater immediate value than price drops—helping buyers cover closing costs, buy downs, or even months of no payments.4. Database = Realtor GoldmineA Realtor's database isn't just past clients—it's friends, family, and community ties. Managing it properly creates recurring deals, referrals, and long-term wealth.5. Prepare, Don't PredictNobody can perfectly forecast rates. Realtors who prepare clients early, underwrite upfront, and educate consistently will win regardless of short-term rate swings.Resources Mentioned in This EpisodePodcast Website – Access past episodes and show updates – https://www.thetexasrealestateandfinancepodcast.comMike's Linktree – Mortgage tools, resources, and contact info – https://linktr.ee/mikemillsmortgageSFMC Home Lending – Steve Barton's Page – Learn more about Steve's role and connect with him – https://sfmc.com/loan-officer/stevebarton/Freddie Mac PMMS (Primary Mortgage Market Survey) – Track weekly mortgage rate trends – https://www.freddiemac.com/pmmsRealtor.com Housing Market Data – Weekly inventory and market insights – https://www.realtor.com/research/✅ If you found this episode valuable, don't forget to subscribe, share, and leave a review so more Realtors can discover strategies for thriving in a changing market.

Mortgage rate cuts are back on the table — but will they actually help buyers, or just push prices higher? In this week's Texas Real Estate & Finance Podcast, Mike Mills breaks down the Fed's latest signals, housing market shifts, and the AI tools Realtors can use to stay ahead. If you're a Realtor navigating 2025 chaos, this one's for you.Episode OverviewThe Mortgage Rate Cut Outlook 2025 is finally shifting, but what does it actually mean for Realtors, buyers, and sellers? In this episode, Mike Mills dives into the Fed's Jackson Hole updates, Texas housing market stats, and the impact of inflation vs. jobs data. Realtors will learn:Why mortgage rates don't always follow Fed cutsHow to frame buyer conversations around payments, not headlinesWhy sellers should price right in the first two weeksHow AI workflows can turn client interviews into personalized marketingIf you've been asking: “How can Realtors prepare clients for rate cuts?” or “What mortgage strategies still work in 2025?” — this episode has the answers.Key Takeaways1. Mortgage Rate Cut Outlook Is ComplexThe Fed may cut rates in September 2025, but mortgage rates don't always move in lockstep with Fed policy. Realtors must educate clients that affordability depends on both rates and home prices, not just one headline.2. Buyer Concessions Beat Price CutsA $10,000 price cut lowers a payment by just $65/month, but $10,000 in concessions saves real cash today. Realtors should coach buyers to negotiate concessions rather than chasing small monthly savings.3. Sellers Must Price Smart EarlyThe first two weeks on market are critical. Overpricing leads to stagnation, price cuts, and lowball offers, while sharp pricing sparks competition and higher final sales. Realtors must guide sellers to hit the market aggressively.4. Texas Housing Market Is SplinteredDFW is sliding, Houston is holding strong, Austin is still 17% below its peak, and San Antonio is affordable but cutting prices. Realtors need to tailor strategies to each local market instead of following national headlines.5. AI Can Personalize Client ExperiencesRecording and transcribing the first buyer/seller meeting allows Realtors to use AI (ChatGPT, NotebookLM) to generate presentations, follow-ups, and long-term profiles. For less than $50/month, Realtors can automate personalization like a Fortune 500 marketer.
