After a year marked by volatility, uncertainty, and more than a few economic curveballs, it’s understandable if optimism doesn’t come easily. Today, Scott discusses a Bloomberg opinion column that argues the outlook for 2026 may be brighter than many people expect. A strong economy might lift markets, but a strong financial plan is what helps people stay confident no matter how the headlines turn out.

Here’s what we cover in this episode:
💸 Consumer Cash – More money flowing to households
🏢 Business Growth – Increased capital and investment flexibility
📉 Lower Costs – Interest rates and energy easing pressure
