The American Dream is dead. It’s been replaced by a rigged, K-shaped economy where the rich get richer, and you get screwed.

Your grocery bill is skyrocketing. A simple dinner out costs a fortune. And young people are forced to gamble on meme coins just to feel like they have a shot.

This isn’t an accident. It’s by design.

In this episode, I sit down with NYT bestselling author Carol Roth, who exposes the truth about the Federal Reserve, the coming financial reset, and what you can do to protect yourself.

We reveal:

  • Why the Fed is a “legalized fraud” and how they’re devaluing your money.
  • The “YOLO Economy” and why young people have lost all faith in the system.
  • The broken social contract: why cheaters are winning and rule-followers are losing.
  • How to survive the affordability crisis and the coming debt spiral.
  • Practical steps to hedge against inflation with gold and smart investments.


If you’re tired of being played and want to learn how to win in a rigged system, this episode is a must-watch.

This is the way.

Ryan Hanley hosts a conversation that lives at the intersection of ambition and practical reality. Finding Peak w/ Ryan Hanley is built on the idea that meaningful progress-in business, in personal development, in life-often requires a slightly unreasonable perspective. Each episode delves into the mechanics of power, not as an abstract concept, but as a tangible tool for building something worthwhile. The discussions explore leverage, examining how individuals can amplify their efforts and influence to create disproportionate results. You’ll hear from guests who have applied these principles in diverse fields, dissecting their journeys, their strategic decisions, and the mindsets that allowed them to push beyond conventional limits. This isn't about quick fixes or superficial success stories; it's a deep, often challenging, look at the frameworks that enable exceptional outcomes. The podcast provides a space for nuanced dialogue where ideas from education, self-improvement, and raw business strategy collide. Listeners will find themselves equipped with new ways of thinking about their own goals and the paths to achieve them, all through conversations that are as substantive as they are engaging. Tune in for a regular dose of actionable insight from those who operate at the edge of what's possible.
