Beschreibung

Housing Cost Crisis examines the escalating housing affordability crisis and its profound effects on family well-being and economic stability. It argues that rising housing costs pose a significant threat to social equity, limiting economic mobility and healthy communities. The book highlights how families are forced to make difficult trade-offs between housing, education, and healthcare, with low-income and minority families disproportionately affected by housing insecurity.

 
The book progresses through three sections, first establishing the scope of the problem with historical trends in housing prices and wage stagnation. It then explores the impact on family choices, using economic studies and case studies to illustrate real-life struggles. Finally, the analysis turns to political and policy dimensions, examining zoning laws, tax policies, and government subsidies, incorporating political science research to assess policy effectiveness.

 
The book uniquely integrates economic analysis with a focus on family well-being, offering a data-driven and research-backed perspective valuable for policymakers, academics, and concerned citizens.

Will I Hate Myself? - A Story...

Pat Treuer

What if chasing your dream didn’t lead to fame or fortune—but to something far more honest? 
At 36, Pat Treuer had the life people post about: six-figure job, corporate status, an apartment with a skyline view—and a quiet voice in his head screaming, “Is this it?” So he did what any rational person would do: he walked away from it all to tell jokes in bars for drink tickets and half-interested crowds. 
Then came the pandemic. Pat launched a comedy business that brought in a million dollars—then reinvested every penny into a YouTube series that made exactly zero. Not a typo. Zero. 
By 42, he found himself not chasing the next punchline, but rebuilding a life from scratch. On purpose, this time. 
Will I Hate Myself is a hilariously raw, painfully honest memoir about risking everything, failing gloriously, and learning to create a life that actually fits. It’s part comedy crash reel, part spiritual sledgehammer. 
If you’ve ever wondered whether you waited too long to change your life, felt stuck in a “successful” version of someone else’s dream, or asked yourself, “Is this all there is?”—this book is for you. 
Through panic attacks, bad gigs, and moments of absurd grace, Pat offers more than laughs—he offers proof that it’s never too late to go off-script and start telling the truth. 
This isn’t about making it. It’s about making it count.
