Episode DescriptionWhat if the wealth you thought you had wasn’t real wealth at all?In this episode of Mission Driven You, I sit down with Paul Musson, author of Capital Offense: Why Some Benefit at Your Expense, to unpack the hidden forces shaping our economy. Paul explains why rising home prices don’t reflect true value, how central bank policies quietly redistribute wealth, and why many of us have unknowingly bought into what he calls the “something for nothing fairy tale”.This isn’t just theory—it’s about our kids’ ability to own homes, our capacity to thrive as entrepreneurs, and the fairness of a system that increasingly feels rigged. Paul offers clear explanations, real-world examples, and a call to action: with understanding comes empowerment, and with empowerment comes the ability to demand better choices from our leaders.If you’ve ever felt like something is broken in the economy but couldn’t quite explain why, this episode will help you connect the dots.Show NotesIn this episode, we cover:The difference between money and capital—and why that distinction matters for every decision you makeWhy rising housing prices represent a redistribution of wealth, not true wealth creationHow central bank policies like quantitative easing and artificially low interest rates have fueled inequalityWhy governments can only spend capital they first obtain from the private sector—and why printing money is really a hidden taxThe “something for nothing fairy tale” that underpins so much of modern economic thinkingPractical steps toward a more capital-creating, fair economyResources & Links:📖 Paul Musson’s book: Capital Offense: Why Some Benefit at Your Expense📰 Paul’s newsletter, Paul Political Economy: Subscribe here
