from the head of the imf and nasa to the side hustler making millions. how much money do you make doing this? so this past year, we did over $2 million. shut the front door. it s been a wild ride in business and work, so buckle up as we look back at 2023. wherever you joining me from around the world. once again, a big hello and a warm welcome to the show. you know, as the year began, europe, it was feeling lucky to have got through a relatively mild early winter. nevertheless, the russian invasion of ukraine and the impact it had on energy and food prices were certainly at the top of the agenda. the year to come in the west, well, it would be a dance between rising prices and wages and interest rates, which were just going up to keep a lid on everything else. all these interlocking global forces meant i had one question for one of the most important people in globalfinance, the managing director of the international monetary fund. kristalina georgieva, a real pleasure, ....
all these interlocking global forces meant i had one question for one of the most important people in globalfinance, the managing director of the international monetary fund. kristalina georgieva, a real pleasure, my friend, having you on this show. and kristalina, let s start with this, because you ve recently said a third of the world is heading into recession this year. how deep do you think the recession could be? what we are looking into is a tough 2023. as you know, we are already experiencing labour market disruptions. when inflation cuts the spending power of people, sooner or later they demand higher wages and if they don t get it, they re on the street. and that kind of disruption we have to be prepared for. and if i have one message to policymakers today, it is, please look into the way you can protect the most vulnerable people given that fiscal conditions are tight, and anticipate the impact of high interest rates on labor markets early . and it wasn t jus ....
paper or maybe even halloween, if you are like me, you have tried to get into the wrong car in the yore ggrocery store parking lot. people make mistakes. we turn down the wrong road, the road driveway, we knock on the wrong door, chase a ball or a pet to someone else s property, not once dodo we think it would result in our being shot or killed. something terrible is going on in a country where a young boy can be shot for simply knocking on the wrong door. where a young woman can be shot for turning down the wrong driveway, and a young woman shot for confusing her car with your car, a child can be shot for chasing a toy. a terrible wind is sweeping our country, devaluing of life, do not confuse what is happening with the right of self-defense, solve defense requires an imminent threat to your well being. and a proportional response, do the allow you to s shoot first and figure out later. it does not mean you can shoot someone turning in your driveway, some people blame ....
we ll leave that at that. before announcing sentence on these cases with regard to all of the other pending cases, are any of them here in kco collite? i believe some of them are, and have been in buford and other places. we may have worn out our welcome here. and i will thank all of the sheriff s office, and i know that mr. harpootlian has sacrificed many, many things, and to have the attorney general here, mr. alan wilson, to be here along with everyone else, it has been quite a sacrifice, but there are other victims whose cases deserve to be heard. and this case has jumped some of those other cases, perhaps jumped it because of the case assaulting the integrity of the judicial integrity of our state, and even in this trial, the law enforcement have been maligned for the past five or six weeks by one who had access to the wheel of justice to be able to deflect the investigation and as the evidence has pointed out in this case, looming storm that mr. waters talked ....
haven t seen. even when kim jong-un was launching missiles and tensions were reaching near crisis level back in 2017, he launched 23 missiles throughout the entire year. he has already surpassed that considerably in in terms of the number of tests this year and fired seven missiles just in the last two weeks. this is more than he has done since he came to power in 2011. and it raises a question, because north korea is not using these for propaganda. you are not seeing images on north korean state media like we normally would see, 24 years after the launch. that that says to me and analysts i m speaking with, these launches are for scientific knowledge and to prove a point, some believe, that he wants those to know his arsenal is there, capable. and even at a time of global conflict, he has weapons that he feels can, you know, stand on their own. obviously, some people think this is all a cry for attention. i think politics might have less to do with it in that there is ....
