[11:01] The middle class is disappearing, and there's a danger of sliding down the socioeconomic ladder if we don't grab hold and start pulling yourself up

[14:52] Inflation always hits the poor the hardest

[19:22] The poor and lower middle class are also targets for sectors like payday lending, which keep them down

[23:13] When new generations (like Millennials) can't enter the investor class early in life, it makes a MASSIVE difference over their lifetime
