„Immobilien sind so viel schwieriger als Aktien“, das sagte Warren Buffett auf der diesjährigen Hauptversammlung von Berkshire Hathaway. Berkshire Hathaway hat während der Finanzkrise 2008/2009 auch direkt in Immobilien investiert, jedoch sind sie zu dem Ergebnis gekommen, dass der Zeitaufwand bei Immobilien in keinem Verhältnis steht.  In dieser Folge sprechen wir über die genauen Gründe, die zu dieser Einschätzung führten.  Schließe Dich über 10.000 cleveren Geldbildern an.

The Looming Crisis Few Want to Confront Paul Daneshrad, CEO of StarPoint Properties and author of Money and Morons, is sounding the alarm: the United States is barreling toward a sovereign debt reckoning – and real estate professionals are not nearly prepared.   Citing economists Reinhart and Rogoff, along with voices as diverse as Jamie Dimon, Jerome Powell, and Ray Dalio, Daneshrad warns that the U.S. has not only crossed the 100% debt-to-GDP threshold, widely viewed as a critical danger zone, but has kept accelerating. "We're at 120 to 140% on-balance-sheet," he notes. "If you include off-balance-sheet liabilities, we're at 300%." While the exact timing of the crisis is unknowable, Daneshrad argues that its inevitability is not. “It's not a question of if – it's when.”   Politics, Populism, and Normalcy Bias Daneshrad is quick to dismiss the conventional partisan narrative. The deficit is no longer a left-right issue, it's a bipartisan affliction. Both political parties, he argues, are fueling structural imbalances. Worse, the electorate, while voicing concern, refuses to vote for hard choices.   This disconnect is the heart of his book's provocative title: Money and Morons. “86% of Americans say they're worried about the debt,” he says. “But they won't vote for politicians willing to solve it, because that solution involves pain.”   The result is what psychologists call “normalcy bias” – an instinct to ignore looming threats and retreat into the comfort of the familiar.   Fixed-Rate Fortresses: Real Estate's First Line of Defense If the debt crisis triggers hyperinflation and a spike in interest rates, as Daneshrad expects, the implications for real estate will be seismic. His response? Radical preparation.   StarPoint has already begun shifting its portfolio into 20+ year fixed-rate debt and is moving toward 30-year structures. “It's painful. It's more expensive. But if the crisis comes in eight years, and you've got two years left on a 10-year loan, you're vulnerable.”   He emphasizes that this is not a fringe view. “Even Powell, whose mandate doesn't include the deficit, felt compelled to warn the public. That's how serious it is.”   Deleveraging with Purpose Debt levels at StarPoint are also coming down – fast. The firm is targeting 40% leverage, down from a peak of 70%. They currently sit at 54%, and the journey continues.   The rationale is clear: when interest rates jump from 6% to 15%, the re-pricing of real estate will be brutal. “That's trillions in lost value,” says Daneshrad. “You have to de-risk now.”   The Forgotten Asset: Cash Cash, often derided for its lack of yield in boom times, plays a central role in Daneshrad's playbook. “The Rockefellers, Kennedys, Guggenheims – they had cash when it mattered. They bought at two cents on the dollar.”   Berkshire Hathaway's record cash holdings reinforce this strategy. “Buffett sees limited opportunity right now and high risk. That should tell you something.”   Daneshrad recommends targeting cash reserves as a percentage of either AUM or annual free cash flow, steadily building them over time. "Public companies get punished for it. Private firms like ours have more flexibility and we're using it."   Why He's Not Buying (Yet) Despite market dislocation, Daneshrad says StarPoint is mostly sitting on the sidelines. Cap rate spreads don't justify the risk, and few deals offer the deep value he's targeting.   “We're looking for rebound plays where sellers are on their third buyer and need certainty of close. That's where the discounts are. But those opportunities are rare.”   Asked whether the mispricing stems from short-term underwriting or optimism bias, he shrugs. “We've flooded the system with liquidity. Asset prices are artificially propped up.”   Diversification and the Limits of Real Estate Daneshrad is not betting the farm on U.S. real estate. He's pursuing modest geographic diversification abroad and expanding into non-real estate asset classes. “Historically, real estate hedges inflation well but a debt crisis changes everything.”   He's candid about the difficulty: “We're not that smart. Timing a crisis is hard. But we can prepare for one.”   The Aging America Conundrum One of the more nuanced points Daneshrad raises is the intersection of demography and fiscal sustainability. Aging, he agrees, is inevitable. But the care infrastructure it requires is not financially supported. “The trustees for Social Security and Medicare, not politicians, say the funds go bankrupt in under ten years. That's $90 trillion in off-balance-sheet liabilities.” Senior housing? “A great idea if the elderly can pay. But with savings rates at historic lows, I'm not optimistic.”   Market Signals That Matter Daneshrad watches for three early signs of crisis: A gradual rise in interest rates – not driven by Fed hikes but by market demands for higher risk premiums. Breakdown of the flight-to-safety dynamic – if equities fall but bond yields rise, that's a red flag. The ‘bang moment' – as coined by Reinhart and Rogoff, when confidence evaporates overnight. As Hemingway once said about bankruptcy, it happens "gradually, then suddenly."   What He'd Do with $1 Million Today If handed an extra million in cash, Daneshrad says he'd hold 80% in cash and invest the rest. “Protect the capital. Diversify over multiple asset classes. Liquidity is opportunity.”   Final Word Paul Daneshrad's message is sobering but clear: “Protect. Prepare. Don't pretend.” He doesn't claim to predict the future. But if you accept the warnings from the smartest voices in finance and economics, the case for defensive posturing is overwhelming.   And if they're wrong? You lose a few basis points. But if they're right you survive the bang.   *** In this series, I cut through the noise to examine how shifting macroeconomic forces and rising geopolitical risk are reshaping real estate investing.   With insights from economists, academics, and seasoned professionals, this show helps investors respond to market uncertainty with clarity, discipline, and a focus on downside protection.    Subscribe to my free newsletter for timely updates, insights, and tools to help you navigate today's volatile real estate landscape.

June 9, 2025 | Season 7 | Episode 22The financial world is undergoing a seismic shift that few everyday investors fully grasp. Private credit and private equity markets have exploded from virtually nothing to controlling trillions in assets and thousands of companies—all while operating largely outside traditional regulatory frameworks.We take you on a fascinating journey through Wall Street's innovation cycles, connecting today's private market boom to previous financial revolutions like junk bonds in the 1970s and mortgage-backed securities in the 1990s. Understanding these historical patterns reveals how regulatory changes, market conditions, and Wall Street creativity repeatedly transform investment landscapes—sometimes with dramatic consequences.The numbers are staggering: private equity now controls 11,500 companies (up from just 2,000 in 2000), private credit has ballooned to $1.7 trillion, and venture capital firms manage $1.2 trillion across more than 3,000 firms. Meanwhile, public markets remain comparatively sleepy, with only a handful of significant IPOs this year.Bank executives like JPMorgan's Jamie Dimon express mounting frustration that this massive shift occurred "without any forethought on the part of regulators," creating competitive disadvantages for traditional banks. As this capital migration continues from regulated to less-regulated spaces, investors must consider both opportunities and potential risks.For those navigating today's uncertain markets, we explore defensive stock strategies and highlight companies following the Berkshire Hathaway model of combining insurance operations with strategic investments—including Fairfax Financial Holdings, Markel Group, and Loews—that have delivered impressive long-term returns using variations of Warren Buffett's proven approach.Whether you're concerned about market volatility, curious about alternative investments, or simply trying to understand the forces reshaping finance, this deep dive into private markets provides essential context for making informed investment decisions in an increasingly complex landscape.** For informational and educational purposes only, not intended as investment advice.

In this episode, today's episode is a special one—it's Tork's birthday, and Sawyer isn't letting that milestone slide quietly. They kick off the show with a candid, unscripted vibe (even tossing the usual intro aside) and jump straight into good-natured ribbing, birthday shoutouts, and Tork's reflections on 54 years of life.Sawyer and Tork talk about everything from starting new gym routines together, attempts at healthier living (with a few hilarious cereal confessions thrown in), and what it's really like keeping up healthy habits as you get older. The guys also dive into a thorough market update, sharing the latest on corn, soybeans, hogs, cattle, and more—plus some big news about expansions in the meat industry and what it means for rural communities.But it's not just markets and muscles. Tork gets deep, sharing hard-earned life lessons about struggle, consistency, and the importance of discipline (with a little help from Denzel Washington's wisdom).

Warren Buffett announced his retirement as CEO of Berkshire Hathaway at the company's 2025 annual meeting — marking the end of one of the most legendary investing careers in history. But his lessons aren't just for billionaires or portfolio managers. They're surprisingly relevant for anyone approaching retirement or looking to live more intentionally with their wealth.   In this episode, Tyler Emrick, CFA®, CFP®, explores the timeless wisdom behind Buffett's philosophy—from staying invested through downturns to making confident decisions when fear is high. We also discuss how a strong financial plan helps you make purposeful choices: knowing when to spend, when to give, and how to align your wealth with the life you want to live—now and in the future.   Here's some of what we discuss in this episode:

Warren Buffett explains why he still prefers stocks over real estate—even with the resources of Berkshire Hathaway at his disposal. Meanwhile, mortgage rates hit their highest point since January, but homebuyers aren't backing down. We unpack both stories in today's episode.

Rose Blumkin didn't just build a business. She revolutionized retail. After fleeing Russia with $66 in her purse, she opened a basement furniture store in Omaha at 43 years old—with no English, no education, and no connections.
