Patrick Brunson: 00:00
In recent times, it's more than likely that you've heard about Brexit in the news, but what is Brexit and why should you care? Ever since voters in the United Kingdom voted to leave the European Union, people everywhere have been left to bear the weight of financial and economic uncertainty. This has caused concerns over ongoing negotiations over trade, tariffs, and even immigration. Keep in mind, the UK is America seventh biggest trading partner, which means our economy is at risk as well. Right now the UK is scheduled to leave the EU on March 29th. So how does Brexit affect the United States? Well, it could pose a major threat to the global trade, increasing volatility. It can even lead to a recession in Britain affecting the United States trade. These market uncertainties are creating a lot of questions. That's why we always say it's better to be proactive as opposed to being reactive with your finances.

The bottom line is, it's no longer about the U s economy itself. It's more about the global economy, and if just one piece of the puzzle starts to falter, It could affect the entire global economy as a whole. For example, during the 2008 financial crisis, there were many other countries around the world that were affected by the actual United States recession because they were very heavily invested in our banks as well as our economy. So if Brexit turns into a major financial crisis for Europe, it could have the same lasting effects on the United States that we experienced back in 2008 during the great recession.
