Why do people feel worse about the economy when most objective numbers say it’s getting better? Freddie Smith, who has about one million TikTok followers listening to his economic advice, says much of it depends on the age of the person being asked. He tells “On Balance” older Americans are feeling much better about their economic well-being than younger people. He says the key for many is to find ways to raise their income, and to not “hold out for the government” to help.
