The End of Happy Hour? Why Gen Z Is Abandoning The Bar

Is your neighborhood "board" slowly draining your bank account?

This week on Red, White and Green, Ted Jenkin and Southside Steve Rickman expose the skyrocketing HOA epidemic. With fees surging nearly 30% since 2019, Ted reveals why your "thankless" neighbors might be spending your hard-earned cash on gazebos and golf cart paths you never asked for. Learn how to stop playing defense and start auditing your HOA budget before that "minor" fee hike turns into a full-blown financial crisis.

From the pristine greens of the Masters to the local dive bar, the way Americans spend is shifting. Ted pulls back the curtain on the "Disneyland for Adults" at Augusta, where patrons drop thousands on eBay-ready gnomes while celebrating $1.50 sandwiches. Meanwhile, we dive into why Gen Z is officially "soft"—trading Jägermeister shots for spin classes and mocktails. Steve and Ted debate whether this "pacified" generation is actually getting ahead or just missing out on the business deals that only happen over a stiff drink.

Stop living like a "Plebeian" and learn the ultimate Wealth Building Block: Are you an Owner or a Loner? Ted breaks down the simple math of why loaning your money to the bank is a losing game compared to owning a piece of the American dream through stocks and real estate. By the end of this episode, you’ll have a clear action plan to slash your utility costs, master the "Dollar Store" trap, and turn your participation in capitalism into true financial freedom.
