First off, for everyone who's stuck with me through this, my 100th episode, a big, fat, obese THANK YOU! I do this podcast because I love you and I want you to have a kickass retirement. On today's show, I'm honored to have Anthony Scaramucci. You may know him from his 11-day stint working for Trump, and you may have seen him on the reality show, "Special Forces..." But there's a lot more to Anthony than meets the eye, and that's why I wanted to talk to him. He's VERY smart, he's very successful, and he has a firm grasp of the economy, politics and history. In this episode, among other things, we hit on the following topics:Bitcoin and SkybridgeSuggested asset allocation to bitcoinSome comments on Gary GenslerGold and BitcoinIs ESG dead?Paying yourself firstPlus, thoughts on five people:Cynthia LummisDwight HowardCathie WoodKarine Jean-PierreUncle AnthonyTo learn more about Anthony's Skybridge Capital, GO HERE: https://www.skybridge.com/If you have a question you'd like me to answer on the podcast, email me at matt@rogueretirementlounge.comCheck out more episodes at my retirement planning podcast website: https://www.rogueretirementlounge.com/Follow me on twitter! https://twitter.com/LoungeRogueFollow me on Instagram! https://www.instagram.com/lairdgrainger/
Today on your favorite retirement podcast, I'm breaking down a really dumb episode of NPR's "Planet Money" podcast. Listening to them make light of the Argentinian inflation crisis made me wanna slap someone, but I thought YOU might find their treatment of the issue interesting. So, because I LOVE YOU and I CARE ABOUT YOU, I put together some excerpts from the episode and broke down some of the ridiculousness I encountered.Overall, I probably come off like a total dick (and maybe I do in every episode??) but my point is that no matter where you get your content from, it's informed by the bias of the journalists, or whoever's writing/producing/performing. Left or right, up or down, whatever.

Sometimes you're looking at your retirement account. You're thinking to yourself, "Self? I'm gonna need this money to live on for, like, 30 years. If I'm gonna make an investment, what are some indicators that could help me make that decision?" We've all had this chat with ourselves thousands of times, right? Well, maybe not, but either way, sometimes, before you do something that you might regret, like smoking crack, hiring a hooker from Craigslist, saying 'yes' when your buddy says, "Smell my finger," or buying Tesla stock in 2022, you want some help, maybe some kind of INDICATOR that might sway you to say YES if it's a good idea, and NO if it's a bad idea. Well, there are a hundred indicators that can provide that help when you're talking about investing. Today, we're talking about the Relative Strength Index, or RSI and how it might help you make decisions when you're considering buying a certain stock, mutual fund, ETF or cryptocurrency. The long, drawn-out explanation, with the eye-crossing equations used to determine a given RSI, can be found here: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/r/rsi.asp (https://www.investopedia.com/terms/r/rsi.asp) Here's that Finviz chart for the Sprott Uranium Miners ETF: https://finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=URNM (https://finviz.com/quote.ashx?t=URNM) Remember, go to http://www.rogueretirementlounge.com/crypto (www.rogueretirementlounge.com/crypto) to sign up for your own Blockfi account.

Quick Memorial Day episode for you... First up, a quick reminder to check and make sure you've got correct and up-to-date beneficiaries designated for all of your retirement accounts. It's the right thing to do on, say, Memorial Day, when the markets are closed. And the story of the VFW "Buddy" Poppy. Here's the poem: In Flanders Fields BY JOHN MCCRAE In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place; and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below. We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie, In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields.

Did you read San Fransicko yet? If not, please buy it here: https://amzn.to/3lekzsE (https://amzn.to/3lekzsE) What kind of city do you want to retire in? Is your current town getting better or worse? Why do I harp on the homeless issue? Because it affects the livability (safety/walkability/etc.) of your town. Reading San Fransicko by Michael Shellenberger is a great way to improve your understanding of how policy drives reality. And policy drives homelessness, like it or not.

Today I've got a quick episode discussing a couple interesting investing and retirement-related articles I found on CNN.com and the Washington Post.

Hey all -- today we're veering off the retirement planning path yet again, but it's important, because, in the name of saving the planet, legislators and activists are logjamming LNG pipelines, thereby cutting off supply, thereby causing the use of coal. What's worse for the climate? Natural gas or coal? Anyway, this is a little editorial in the Wall Street Journal I found this weekend and I thought you'd find it interesting...

Hopefully this will be the last episode where I whine about inflation. But I think there are a couple points you need to keep in mind as you do your retirement planning. Your money might be losing value faster than you think and that's what today is all about. Oh, and idiocy delivered to your screen via Twitter from intellectual-giant-Karen Elizabeth Warren.

Today's a quick episode just to answer an email from a listener. Will asks, should he move to Portland to be closer to family? My response: Well, if you want a quick, insider's look at the state of the city of Portland in 2022, LISTEN UP. Hint: It ain't pretty. Here's a link to the Willamette Week article describing how in Portland, EVEN OUR LIBRARIANS AREN'T SAVE ANYMORE!! https://www.wweek.com/news/2022/04/13/multnomah-county-librarians-say-theyre-no-longer-willing-to-work-as-de-facto-security-guards (https://www.wweek.com/news/2022/04/13/multnomah-county-librarians-say-theyre-no-longer-willing-to-work-as-de-facto-security-guards) And I mentioned California gubernatorial candidate Michael Schellenberger.

Hey, your favorite retirement planning podcast is BAAAAAAAACK... Today I've got a little rant about some stupid Dave Ramsey advice I heard. Also, I mention two books by Saifedean Ammous that you really should read: Fiat Standard: https://www.amazon.com/Fiat-Standard-Slavery-Alternative-Civilization/dp/B09VVFCQ63/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1HR1LYB103PE7&keywords=saifedean+ammous&qid=1649353653&sprefix=saifade%2Caps%2C179&sr=8-3 (https://www.amazon.com/Fiat-Standard-Slavery-Alternative-Civilization/dp/B09VVFCQ63/ref=sr_1_3?crid=1HR1LYB103PE7&keywords=saifedean+ammous&qid=1649353653&sprefix=saifade%2Caps%2C179&sr=8-3) Bitcoin Standard: https://www.amazon.com/Bitcoin-Standard-Decentralized-Alternative-Central/dp/1119473861/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1HR1LYB103PE7&keywords=saifedean+ammous&qid=1649353692&sprefix=saifade%2Caps%2C179&sr=8-4 (https://www.amazon.com/Bitcoin-Standard-Decentralized-Alternative-Central/dp/1119473861/ref=sr_1_4?crid=1HR1LYB103PE7&keywords=saifedean+ammous&qid=1649353692&sprefix=saifade%2Caps%2C179&sr=8-4) And finally, I cover a clickbait article which basically calls Millennials stupid for keeping some of their retirement savings in cryptocurrency.

Today's episode isn't really about retirement planning, per se. It's more about what a currency crisis, coupled with mega-inflation and recession might look like, right here at home in the good ol' US of A. It's not pretty, but it's worth at least thinking about.

Okay my friends, in today's podcast I'm probably gonna come off like a complete a-hole, but I can't help myself. I recently heard a podcast, hosted by a financial advisor, that had some really bad (in my opinion) information in it. Like, REALLY bad. But to prove that I'm not a total jerk, I wanted to promote three REALLY GOOD retirement planning podcasts that are hosted by financial advisors that I really like and trust: 1) Finishing Well with Hans Sheil https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/finishing-well/id1345523361 (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/finishing-well/id1345523361) 2) Retirement Revealed with Jeremy Keil https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/retirement-revealed/id1488769337 (https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/retirement-revealed/id1488769337) 3) The Retirement Answer Man with Roger Whitney https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/retirement-answer-man/id834314596 (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/retirement-answer-man/id834314596) Okay, after showing my nice side I get to dressing down this other podcast I listened to that was filled with (in my opinion) terrible information. One thing I do talk about is the great Fidelity report called "Bitcoin First." Here's a link to where you can view or download it: https://www.fidelitydigitalassets.com/bin-public/060_www_fidelity_com/documents/FDAS/bitcoin-first.pdf (https://www.fidelitydigitalassets.com/bin-public/060_www_fidelity_com/documents/FDAS/bitcoin-first.pdf) So as I mention in this episode, I'm really not doing this to be a jerk. It's not my style to hammer on some other dude's retirement podcast. And this will probably never happen again. I just wanted to point out that you need to VERIFY information. You need to do your own research. And most important, just because someone has a three-letter acronym after their name DOESN'T mean they know what they're talking about. And in defense of this kid, he's barely 30 years old, if that, so we can all give him a break for being young. Again, do your own research and take control of your finances.

So you've heard about the Canadian Government invoking the Emergencies Act... You've heard about them freezing bank accounts and even freezing crypto wallets. Is that really possible? Yes. Could your government freeze or seize your retirement savings? Most definitely. So DON'T HAVE WRONG THOUGHTS, DON'T SAY WRONG THINGS, AND DON'T ENGAGE IN TRACEABLE FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS WITH WRONG PEOPLE. Got it? Good. Today we're gonna talk about this. But this topic, as uncomfortable as it is, opens the door to another uncomfortable topic: CENTRAL BANK DIGITAL CURRENCIES. They're coming, my friend. We still have a couple years, or, well, at least probably one year. So it's time to start preparing yourself. Today I'm going to help you understand how the mechanics of CBDCs might work, and how programmability will help your government keep more of "their share" of your money, while keeping an eye on exactly where you spend your money. This episode is kinda long, but it'll be educational, I promise. Especially the CBDC part. Grab a beer and let's do this.

Well, if you know me at all, you know I'm a bit obsessed with inflation (and taxes). Today we'll go into the insidious nature of inflation as it relates to normal, everyday, workin' folks.

HEYHEYHEY! Is real estate in your retirement plan? Are you behind on retirement savings and hoping to make up for it with Social Security? Have you ever heard of Modern Monetary Theory? Well, today we're gonna talk about all this stuff and it's going to make you SMARTER. First up, the weak article about MMT in the New York Times: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/06/business/economy/modern-monetary-theory-stephanie-kelton.html (https://www.nytimes.com/2022/02/06/business/economy/modern-monetary-theory-stephanie-kelton.html) Here's a link to the Redfin 2022 Real Estate forecast update(and it's not as bad as you might think...) https://www.redfin.com/news/housing-market-update-2022-forecast (https://www.redfin.com/news/housing-market-update-2022-forecast) And finally, we get to a listener question about Social Security. Unfortunately, if you're depending on SS for the bulk of your retirement income, it's hard to increase your benefit by simply earning more money. I cover a couple numbers and it's not pretty.
