For us, definitely better. Our chess business was meant to be a fun based side business and nothing more. The income from that business has more than quadrupled what we anticipated when we decided to go five nights a week, Families have more expendable income now than in the past.
It's five nights a week now, 15 classes per week. Two years ago we had two classes on Mondays, that was it.
It's been a blessing. My wife retired from full time teaching, only teaches two Technology classes per week at a charter school. Her schedule allows to help with the grand baby. I'm working half as many hours on the Energy business, spend the remainder on the chess business. **** If the average family didn't have more expendable income today as opposed to two years ago, this wouldn't be possible for us. ****

Well, that pretty much settles it then.
16 out of 38 people are doing better in Drumph's
BEST ECONOMY IN THE HISTORY OF HUMANITY.
13 are doing worse and
9 on fixed incomes facing rising costs are also doing worse,
which means that 22 out of 38 are doing worse.
This shouldn't be a big surprise.
Everything the Trump regime has done was designed to benefit the wealthiest Americans at the expense of the poorest and most vulnerable Americans.
Where is all of the prosperity that is supposed to result from Trump's policies?
Most people are worse off under his regime.
