Recessions and the Economy Without the Misery

The news says "GDP is down," "the Fed is raising rates," and "the yield curve is inverted." Nobody explains what any of it means for you.

This book does, in plain English, with real numbers and real history. It makes no predictions.

💡 WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

✔️ GDP: the economy's scoreboard, and how it's actually measured

✔️ Growth, real vs nominal, and per-person numbers

✔️ What a recession actually is, and who officially decides

✔️ Reading the dashboard: unemployment, inflation, spending and the yield curve

✔️ What the Fed and Congress can do, explained neutrally

✔️ What recessions have tended to do to jobs, prices, stocks and homes, and how to measure your own exposure
