The evidence is overwhelmingly that the increase in inequality is associated with those negative factors.

If you're at a place in your life where it seems like you've lost everything, just first of all know that you haven't lost everything.

Then think about how you can leverage whatever resources you have remaining after your loss and figure out how to utilize those resources and convert them into streams of income by adding value to other peoples lives or adding value to a marketplace. The money will begin to flow back in and you will begin to gain back the equivalent and more of everything you lost. Then when you've rebounded and it seems like you have it all, do everything in your power to protect it all and to keep it all and to avoid loss.”
