Where the United States economy is heading and why the rest of the world will follow
In today's article, we are going to cover a topic I previously covered on this blog. However, I have updated it now compared to the previous post. These include edits I've made personally and with the help of Chat GPT. This article is attempting to predict the future so it should be taken with a grain of salt. As I'm not a fortune teller and neither is Chat GPT I've attempted to be accurate as possible in this article. So with that being stated let's get into today's interesting article.
Where the U.S economy is heading
Recently, if you live in the U.S., you've seen how the economy has affected everyday people. Whether you're rich, poor, old, or young, everyone has felt the effects of the economy. Depending on what you did with your finances during the pandemic, you can either be in a very good situation or a very bad one. That means what you did with your money while we were locked down and stuck inside matters. Did you spend your stimulus check on goods or services, or did you invest your money in stocks, crypto, or even real estate? Another question to ask is what you did with your time during the pandemic. Did you just sit around and game and sleep all day during the lockdown? Or did you try to get into a new side hustle or business?
Your answers can tell you where you are most likely in terms of finances and social status. Where you are on the social ladder and in terms of finances is important because it can tell you where you'll be heading forward in your finances and wealth. If you're someone who didn't sit around all day gaming and buying consumer goods that you don't need but instead took your time seriously and tried to pick up new hobbies, side hustles, or businesses and invested your money into stocks, crypto, or even your own business, then you'll be in a good position now and in the future compared to others. The reason for that is simple: The United States economy isn't going to be friendly to ordinary citizens anymore. That means poor or middle-class men and women won't have an easy road any time in the future for many reasons which will lead us to our next topic of discussion.
Why it's heading in this direction
The United States economy is heading in a certain direction for multiple reasons. The main reason why everyone will feel the effects, regardless of demographics, is inflation. Inflation rates within the U.S. dollar have hit all-time recent highs, and while the reasons for that vary and aren't the main topic of this article, recent reports have come out saying that inflation rates within the country are at 5%. However, I don't believe that and think that the Fed is underreporting to prevent panic because if you look at consumer prices, they've gone up over 25% and in some markets almost 50%. I believe that the inflation rate within the country is in double digits, maybe even up to 12-13%.
If the economy keeps heading this way in the future, then there will be problems within the country that everyone will face. What that means exactly is people's money will start losing its value; people's purchasing power is going down, meaning you won't be able to buy as much as you could before with the same amount of money. Another reason why the economy in the States is changing is because of a silent revolution no one knows is happening right now. That silent revolution is the digital age. Most would say that we are already living in the digital revolution, but I don't believe this because as much as digital products are a part of our lives, they aren't a part of it 24/7 every minute and second of the day. We will most likely hit that point when we get to the metaverse as by then I suspect that much of the world will have already been digitalized. The digital revolution is also going to bring many jobs that will require you to be in the digital world. We can see this already with Chat GPT helping to bring more jobs into the digital world and also creating new jobs such as artificial intelligence prompt engineer.
In the future, we can expect to see an increase in digital jobs and a shift towards a digital creator economy. This means that more people will work for themselves digitally rather than working for someone else in the physical world. The metaverse and A.I such as Chat GPT can make this a reality which could shake up the current economic market. While not everyone works this way, recent polls and studies have shown that more Americans are becoming independent and self-reliant from employers and are becoming self-employed due to factors such as Covid-19, slow government response to the pandemic and disasters, and the government's handling of the economy in recent years.
Why the rest of the world's economy will follow
The world's economy is likely to follow the United States for several reasons. Firstly, the United States is a world leader in digital adoption and innovation, alongside Asian countries. Secondly, as the world's largest economy by GDP and wealth, the United States sets an example for other countries to plan their economies. Thirdly, the digital revolution affects all countries, regardless of their relationship with the United States. This revolution is not limited to one country but is a global phenomenon. The United States is likely to be among the first to experience it due to its rapid adoption of technology in both the public and private sectors.
