On tonight’s episode of Dr Phil Primetime, the conversation centres around the financial challenges faced by Americans due to the increased cost of living. The show looks into the stories of individuals who claim that the recent inflation has significantly impacted their lives and livelihoods.
Dr Phil sits down with Jade, a young woman who shares her experience of becoming part of the working homeless. Jade explains that when her landlord raised her rent, she was priced out of her home and had to resort to living in her car as a means of saving money.
The show also features a young married couple, Morgan and Justin, who claim that despite their income of over $100,000, the rising costs of essentials have made it difficult for them to get by.
Dr Phil also meets with Isaac, who shares the unfortunate fate of his family’s small business. Isaac reveals that the business, built with their blood, sweat, and tears, could not withstand the pressure of inflation and was ultimately forced to close.
The episode also introduces Anton, an entrepreneur and real estate investor with a differing perspective. Anton attributes people’s financial struggles to laziness and self-inflicted wounds rather than inflation.
Dr Phil Primetime: High Cost Of Living Crisis airs Wednesday, October 16, 2024, at 8:00 PM on Merit Street Media.
