The stock market playbook - the sun is out, but get ready for winter

Today I spoke on my podcast about the stock market's recent rise and what lies beneath the surface. Today and yesterday presented massive market movements that put a lot of green in our portfolios. However, there are two key issues at play that should leave investors concerned: 1) Corporate earnings are expected to decline. Yes, we are heading toward a recession and yes, companies are expected to start releasing bad news within a quarter or two. Some believe this could lead to an even stronger m...

The financial reasons that Irv Gotti keeps talking about Ashanti

Irv Gotti, CEO and Co-founder of Murder Inc records, has been heavily criticized for speaking about the singer Ashanti a great deal in public recently. The reason Dr Alicia and I decided to talk about this issue is the following; 1) Is there a double standard when it comes to kissing and telling? There are a long list of reality shows that encourage women to speak directly about the men they used to sleep with. 2) What are the financial reasons behind reflecting on these relationships? Irv menti...

Your poor spending habits could be the result of economic trauma

Most of us don't understand the deep connection between our psychological development and economic choices. According to my wife, who's a licensed therapist and Certified Trauma Professional, our financial mistakes, habits, and addictions are connected to experiences we may not even remember. So, today on Pillow Talk with Dr Boyce and Dr Alicia Watkins, we spoke about a couple of topics, including the "Quiet Quitting" phenomenon, corporate stress, and the way our childhood can impact our economi...

Jay-Z has a tree full of billionaires - but what does that mean for black people?

Today on Dr Boyce TV, we discuss Jay-Z's verse regarding the billionaires he's created. The question is this: what does it mean to the black community when a hip-hop artist becomes a billionaire? Does this mean that thousands of jobs are going to be created for our community? Does it mean that black wealth is going to go up? Or does it mean that we receive the symbolic satisfaction of knowing that a black person has been able to provide for his family by (in some cases) behaving in a manner that...

According to CNN, Mike Hickmon lost his life during an argument over youth football: "The suspect in a shooting that killed a 43-year-old coach during a weekend youth football game outside Dallas turned himself in Monday, police said.

Millions of young people are quietly quitting their jobs

I read online today about something called "Quiet Quitting," where millions of Gen Z employees are doing the bare minimum on their jobs without officially quitting. The Quiet Quitting trend has become quite big on Tik Tok, as young people (Gen Z represents those born in 1989 or later) have rejected the hustle culture embraced by their parents. There are a few reasons for the Quiet Quitting phenomenon, part of which is that the pandemic blurred the lines between work and life and is leading many ...

Meme compares Migos rapper Quavo to Amazon's Jeff Bezos - is that racist?

Hello, I hope you're doing well. ​ I saw an image comparing the rapper Quavo from The Migos to billionaire Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon. While Bezos has a net worth that's literally 7,692 times that of Quavo, he's also nearly twice his age (58 vs 31). The deeper question is this: Why are black men on stage the ones that we see the most in society other than young black men like Paris Dean, a Tech Stars graduate who built an app that earned $100 million dollars in a couple of days? This speaks t...
