SCRIPTURES AND WALL STREET - SOCIAL SECURITY LIES &MARKET MANIPULATION

In today’s episode of Scriptures & Wall Street, Carlos Cortez delivers a wide-ranging and deeply honest conversation that blends real-time market analysis, Social Security truth, and biblical perspective. From the opening moments recorded on the way to his son’s hockey game, Carlos challenges misleading advice circulating on social media — especially the dangerous push to take Social Security early without understanding the long-term consequences. He explains why Social Security may be the largest asset in many retirements and why getting the timing wrong can permanently damage your financial future.
Carlos then shifts into charts, volatility, banking stress, precious metals, and speculative trades — separating red money from green money and showing listeners how to think clearly instead of emotionally. He exposes market manipulation, influencer conflicts of interest, and why 2026 will demand discipline, protection, and wisdom. Throughout the episode, Carlos weaves faith, stewardship, and personal testimony together, reminding listeners that fear, FOMO, and greed are the enemy — but truth, preparation, and trust in God bring peace.
