Eggs Up 40¢, Tariffs Up 30 %, Who’s Guarding Your Wallet?

Three headline risks gaining speed and three moves to keep you two steps ahead.
😩 Why Your Grocery Run Felt Like a Gut-Punch
Yesterday my usual carton of eggs cost 40 ¢ more. A shrug? Maybe.
But that tiny jump is the same warning flare we saw right before 2022’s price surge. Small costs add up, and the people who wait to “see how bad it gets” always pay the most.
👀 In this issue:
▸ Markets’ eerie calm before tariff storms
▸ Debt-driven rate squeeze no one’s pricing in
▸ Three-step “Oh-Sh*t” buffer plan
🔎 Real Talk – Risks Hiding in Plain Sight
Why It Matter to You - Stocks partying, gold & bonds screaming. Calm markets = mis-priced danger
Why It Matter to You - Retaliation means higher import costs, from cars to coffee pods, fast
Why It Matter to You - If bond buyers finally blink, every variable loan in your life jumps overnight.

Bottom line: Price shocks start tiny (40 ¢ eggs) and end big (4 % mortgage spike). Act now or pay through the nose later.
