AI Might Take Your Job — Don’t Let It Take Your Future (Smart Money Moves to Make Now)
Description
Steve Rhode — the old, original Get Out of Debt Guy — and the new Get Out of Debt Guy, Damon Day, break down the headlines behind AI, layoffs, and automation without the hype. If you’re worried about job security (especially in white-collar or repetitive roles) and you’re carrying debt, this episode gives you a calm, practical game plan: how to reskill, where to start with AI tools, and the exact money moves to protect your household if the pink slips start flying.
We cover:
• Why AI is a personal finance issue, not just a tech story
• What to do today to stay employable: upskilling, side income, networking
• Debt triage in an uncertain job market: cash buffer vs. extra payments, when consolidation, settlement, or bankruptcy makes sense
• Cutting burn rate fast, building an emergency fund, and avoiding 401(k) raids
• Real talk on gig work (short-term cushion), “safe jobs,” and becoming AI-augmented at work
