In this episode of Main Street Matters, Elaine Parker sits down with financial expert Mark J. Quann to break down how Trump-era tax cuts and the Buy, Borrow, Die strategy can help everyday Americans legally keep more of what they earn.
Mark explains the critical difference between good debt and bad debt, why traditional saving alone often falls short, and how strategic borrowing and investing can accelerate long-term wealth—especially for small business owners and middle-class families. The conversation also highlights the urgent need for better financial literacy in America and why recent tax reforms have been especially beneficial for Main Street, not Wall Street.
