About:
My name is Abe Brand, and I live in Birmingham, AL, with my wife and three daughters. I created IncomeandEconomics.com to have a platform to write about what I see going on in the economy. This website presents data sources in interactive charts so you can see trends over time and better understand our future economic direction.
My background is in banking and commercial real estate. I work for a large regional bank in the southeastern United States. I have been involved in originating, underwriting, and financing several billion in real estate debt. I also own and manage an LLC where I invest in cash-flowing assets primarily made up of commercial real estate. I am a graduate of the University of Alabama and Louisiana State University’s Graduate School of Banking.

Read My Book: Money and Markets
In this book, you'll learn why our fiat-based economic system causes the U.S. dollar to lose purchasing power. To understand this, we study the various components of the American economic system, including the Federal Reserve, the stock and bond market, the role of banks and financial institutions, and how the U.S. dollar underpins these systems. This book explores U.S. economic policy throughout the 20th and 21st centuries, why the next step is likely a central bank digital currency (CBDC), and how CBDC may be bad for personal freedom. Lastly, we look into counterparty risk and how gold, silver, and bitcoin in self-custody eliminate counterparty risk.
Whether you're a student of economics, a business professional, or simply someone looking to better understand how money and markets operate in the United States, "Money and Markets" has something to offer you. So why wait? Get your copy today.
Sincerely,
Founder, IncomeandEconomics.com
