Welcome to another eye-opening episode of the Building Your Money Machine Show! Today, I’m pulling back the curtain on a market that quietly runs the show behind the scenes—one that most people don’t truly understand: the bond market. You may have heard that bonds are “boring,” reserved for your grandma’s retirement or a dusty corner of finance. Well, I’m here to change your mind.With over 30 years as a financial expert, I can tell you: the bond market isn’t just big—it’s the most powerful market in the world, moving more than $100 trillion and deciding everything from your mortgage rate to your retirement returns. It might not be as flashy as stocks or crypto, but it’s the boss that sets the rules you and I have to live by.In this episode, I walk you through exactly what a bond is, how bond prices and yields play tug-of-war, and why ignoring the bond market is like letting someone else drive your money while they’re scrolling TikTok. I’ll break down how bonds ripple through your financial life—impacting your loans, your investments, your freedom number, and even your taxes.IN TODAY’S EPISODE, I DISCUSS:Why the bond market is the true thermostat of the economyWhat a bond actually is, including the 4 must-know termsThe relationship between bond prices and yieldsHow the U.S. government and companies issue bondsPrimary vs. secondary bond marketsHow Treasury yields impact everythingThe interplay between bonds and stocksWhy understanding your “freedom number” is criticalWhy you must take the wheel when it comes to your moneyRECOMMENDED EPISODES FOR YOUIf you liked this episode, click here to enjoy these and more:https://melabraham.com/show/7 Things I Wish I Knew Before I Retired8 Signs You're NOT Ready For The Upcoming Recession40 Harsh Truths I Wish I Knew in My 40sHow to Build Your Financial Freedom Engine (Step-by-Step)Stop These 8 Habits to Quietly Build Wealth (I wish I knew this sooner)RECOMMENDED VIDEOS FOR YOU If you liked this video, you'll love these ones:7 Things I Wish I Knew Before I Retired: https://youtu.be/t5DL9bZYRiw8 Signs You're NOT Ready For The Upcoming Recession: https://youtu.be/Spnhr_Ecd0s40 Harsh Truths I Wish I Knew in My 40s: https://youtu.be/RUIh5osQigoHow to Build Your Financial Freedom Engine (Step-by-Step): https://youtu.be/OuETMEdqPB4ORDER MY NEW USA TODAY BESTSELLING BOOK:Building Your Money Machine: How to Get Your Money to Work Harder For You Than You Did For It!The key to building the life you desire and deserve is to build your Money Machine—a powerful system designed to generate income that’s no longer tied to your work or efforts.
