The Financializer
GDP pieces
C + I + G + NX. Slide the parts. Net exports can go negative and still count.
Economy
Economy toys
Four classroom gadgets for the big picture: spending pieces, crossings, shrinking stickers, and rates that tug two ways. Learning only. Not a forecast.
Supply & demand
Shift the curves. Park a price off the crossing. Meet shortage and surplus.
Inflation
$100 of buying power over N years at an example rate. Watch the pile shrink.
Interest rates
A toy bond price moves opposite the rate. A $10k loan’s annual interest moves with it.
This is educational, not advice. Example rates and taxes are illustrations. Real accounts, markets, and tax rules can look different — sometimes a lot. No number on this page is a recommendation.
