AGI is coming by 2027 — and it won't just take jobs; it will destroy your ability to qualify for a mortgage.

Rates. Prices. Everyone is watching the wrong numbers. In this episode, Anthony and Manley break down the real threat to the American Dream: income instability caused by AI automation — and why lenders are about to make qualifying for a 30-year mortgage dramatically harder.

Goldman Sachs has flagged 300 million jobs globally exposed to AI displacement. In the U.S., unemployment in tech-exposed roles among 20–30-year-olds has already risen nearly 3 percentage points since early 2025. And institutional investors like BlackRock and Blackstone? They've already modeled this future. That's why they're buying single-family homes at scale — because they know the middle class is about to be priced out permanently.

If your income comes from software, marketing, accounting, paralegal work, or any knowledge profession — your window to qualify for a mortgage is closing faster than you think.

IN THIS EPISODE:

— Why AGI arriving by mid-to-late 2027 is the real housing market variable
— How "quietly unfilled" jobs are reshaping the economy, just like Detroit
— The income credibility wall coming for mortgage underwriting
— Why the trades are now the blueprint for generational wealth
— Today's mortgage rate snapshot and what your payment actually looks like
— The action item that separates homeowners from permanent renters
