Show Notes

I've been getting a lot of DMs and texts asking what my thoughts are on the recent bank collapses and what I'm doing to protect my money. In this episode, I break down how the US banking system works and go over key terms, including what a run on the bank is and how it's changed over the past century.

I explain exactly what happened with Silicon Valley Bank and what the Fed did to ensure the whole banking system didn't collapse. Plus, I share ways to diversify your money and reduce risk going forward.

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

  • Why you shouldn't panic because of the recent bank collapses

  • What's protected (and what's not) with FDIC insurance

  • How the fractional reserve banking system works and why it fails sometimes

  • How social media dramatically changed the landscape of bank runs

  • Five ways to diversify your money
