What Survives a Recession? Lessons From 2008 and Today

This week on Another Money Show , Anthony is joined by producer Sam Davis while J.R. is away. Anthony and Sam discuss some of the latest headlines surrounding artificial intelligence, questions about AI safety and cybersecurity, and whether today’s speculation and enthusiasm surrounding AI and technology could eventually resemble previous market bubbles. They also look back at the Great Recession and discuss companies and industries that held up surprisingly well during 2008, including businesses tied to essential services, discount retail and everyday necessities. That leads to a larger conversation about what could prove resilient during the next serious economic downturn, and why the stock market and the economy don’t always tell the same story. Plus, Anthony and Sam break down the foundations they believe people should consider when preparing financially: food and water, emergency reserves and hard assets, debt management, dependable income and diversification.
