Had to come out of retirement to do contract work in order to maintain lifestyle and investments. I don't see that ending soon. We are also talking about regaining what was lost as well, I take it. Since prior investments that were thriving stopped almost immediately. Who writes these questions?

I have rental properties. The rents had to be increased to cover for inflation.

Prices haven't dropped 20 percent. That is the only way they could have rebounded from the 3 year disaster we've experienced.

The inflation has pushed people into higher tax brackets. Everyone lost except the IRS.

The economy won't recover for at least twenty years.

Are you worried about the "economic pain" predicted to come with tariffs?

The sheep shouldn't be alarmed, because Trump said he would do this during his campaign. He comes from the business world, not politics. We actually have a president keeping the promises he made to those who elected him, a trait that is not common with career politicians.

Other countries have placed tariffs on our goods, far more so than we have ever done. I used to sell overseas,many customers of mine had to pay 25-30% in tariffs when the goods arrived. No, I am not worried. Excited is a better term. Fair and equal, globally.

I would be worried about the economic pain, if we did not reciprocate.
