In this week’s episode, we dive into Jeff Booth’s The Price of Tomorrow, exploring a bold and provocative view of the future of our economy, technology, and society, and why understanding deflation may be key to navigating what comes next.We uncover Booth’s core idea that the natural state of a truly free economy is deflation, and that technological progress is inherently deflationary. As innovation accelerates, goods and services should become cheaper and more accessible — yet our current financial systems resist this reality. We explore what this tension means for individuals, businesses, and governments, and why so many people feel increasing pressure despite unprecedented technological advancement.We also discuss Booth’s predictions about the future, examining the paradigm shift required to fully grasp his perspective. This includes rethinking long-held assumptions about growth, debt, inflation, and value, and understanding how exponential technologies are reshaping the rules of the game faster than our systems can adapt.Additionally, we explore strategic frameworks that help make sense of this transition, including the Prisoner’s Dilemma, zero-sum and non-zero-sum games. We reflect on how cooperation, long-term thinking, and systems-level awareness may offer more sustainable paths forward than competition rooted in scarcity.Join us to discover how The Price of Tomorrow challenges conventional economic thinking and invites us to rethink progress, value, and opportunity in a rapidly changing world. Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation that blends economics, technology, game theory, and practical strategies for approaching an uncertain but possibility-rich future.All the love, all the power, all of the time!If you'd like to support the podcast, follow this link: https://linktr.ee/w.salskiInstagram: / unusual.stories_podcast YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WS_PodcastPrimal.net: @wspodcastLink to the book on Amazon: https://amzn.eu/d/gUrs61tRelated Media: "Beginner's Mindset" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/4tLcQV0gx2MuwWKczttxuA?si=520988ae201d43c3"Thinking Fast and Slow" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/6rZpUK2wEL6nOWHBr1fffo?si=9e73786ac0654082"Let's Talk About Money" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/75naEHqjZy1fcObsjjhFec?si=f1718052b4e240a7"Today vs. Tomorrow" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/3dOIUGFYZaAVZIafKH7nRl?si=1daec288f5364bae"Why You Shouldn't Buy Bitcoin?" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/5puvUXQwUH5GRNgQjVgZL9?si=e4fdf02e266f4e3f"The Bitcoin Standard" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/4AtMl4N6FXmfwo8CVueBvk?si=ce961af3d7df427f"The Creature from Jekyll Island" - https://open.spotify.com/episode/1m01JKWp4m8TXxCp96Pf1f?si=9c14e5dfcb0a4a4a
