On this episode of the Passive Income Attorney podcast, Seth is joined by Damion Lupo as they talk about how we are stuck in an outdated, old way of thinking not only about retirement but life in general. The pit bosses of Wall Street do everything in their power to make you work nine-to-five until your retirement because that is their way to control you in line their pockets. Damion is tired of this dark and scare tactic to drum up fear and trepidation about anything outside of stocks, bonds, and mutual funds, so he came up with a unique tool – a fusion of financial literacy and a strategy called eQRP – to allow you to control your retirement money and get off the Wall Street rollercoaster. Enjoy! “Conventional wisdom is going to keep you enslaved and in shackles; you really have to think about that. If you're going along the mainstream with whatever you're doing, it's never going to set you free. ” HIGHLIGHTS: Here's a breakdown of what to expect in this episode: The fear of being eaten by polar bears and bankruptcy. Exposing the lack of financial education as a system meant to create employees. Shortcomings of the 401(k) system and how Wall Street is taking advantage of it. Having control over your money and assets with the eQRP. Diving deeper into the eQRP and why it is a better choice than other models. Advice on taking control and creating multiple streams of income through real estate. And so much more!

Your Financial Independence Day happens when your residual income stream amount exceeds your basic monthly expenses. Rental demand is high for three big reasons: rates are rising, stringent mortgage qualification standards, housing undersupply. I answer three listener questions: Should I make a big down payment? Is borrowing at lower than inflation profitable? What about prepayment penalties? Ridge Lending Group President Caeli Ridge joins us to discuss today's mortgage lending landscape. Today, are ARMs beginning to make more sense than fixed-rate mortgages? We explore. Learn about the cash-out refinance climate. Second mortgages on income properties are still limited. Does it ever make sense to refinance to a higher mortgage interest rate? We discuss. Caeli Ridge thinks mortgage rates will keep rising.

I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. Happy Financial Independence Day on American Independence Day. I answer some of your most burning listener questions today. Shifts in the mortgage market could now change your strategy. Does a cashout refinance to a higher mortgage rate make sense or not? Is an adjustable rate mortgage actually feasible for you now and lots more… on Get Rich Education. _____________________ Hey, welcome in to GRE. From San Luis Obispo, CA to Saint Louis, Missouri and across 188 nations worldwide, you're back in that abundant place. And you've got to lead with an abundance mentality around here. How many places can you do that when the scarcity mentality is abundant and the abundance mentality is scarce. I'm Keith Weinhold. This is Get Rich Education. Though it's American Independence Day… is it your financial independence day. Are you drawing closer to that day… as you add income streams in your life. With 8.6% government-admitted inflation and stagnant wages and a higher cost of living… has there EVER been a more important time in your entire life to add an income stream through real estate? You can make the case that this is the most important time for you to do that. I am about to answer your listener questions here on July 4th. It's also Episode 404. There's no chance that this becomes an error 404. Some dorky humor there. First… Freddie Mac is going to include on-time rent payments into underwriting. Yes! This starts next week. This is a good thing for you. This incentivizes renters to make on-time payments to you if they ever want to become homeowners. …and… Airbnb enacts a permanent ban on parties. They & VRBO have long struggled with what to do about parties. I just shared those stories with you in Friday's newsletter. If you didn't see them, they're in the Show Notes of today's episode. Be sure to get our free “Don't Quit Your Daydream” newsletter. We've been really informing you about so much in the real estate world there. We've also been telling you about our webinars. I know that some of you enjoyed last week's Texas properties webinar. Stay up-to-date with our newsletter at: GetRichEducation.com/Letter Now, let me tell you. Back in the year 2004, eighteen years ago. Yes, I was an active REI then. My tenants were increasingly leaving. They were vacating my property and I had to find a new renter. This was increasingly happening for a few reasons: #1 is that mortgage rates were falling then. But secondly, and really the big reason is that anyone could qualify for a loan. Mortgage underwriting standards were so lax that nearly any human could get a loan, even if they had zero income. So… loans were too easy to get. Then the third reason that my tenants seemed to be vacating is that there was ample supply - and an oversupply of properties - first-time homes - for them to move into. Well, today, all THREE of those criteria are flip-flopped. First, mortgage rates are rising. Second, mortgage qualification standards are tough. Tougher than Kevlar. And thirdly, there's an undersupply of homes, especially these entry-level homes that make the best FTHB places. That's precisely why rental demand is sky high today, tenants are not fleeing to become homeowners, rental occupancy is close to 100% in many markets, and rents are rising multiples faster than historic norms. These phenomena can move you closer to you financial independence day. I had a group of financing-themed listener questions come in recently, so I want to get to three of those before we talk more about today's lending landscape later. ________________ The first question comes from Dave in Bellingham, Washington. “Keith, I thought it was good to make a big down payment on a property. That way, I'd have not only less debt, but I'd have the benefit of having a smaller mortgage payment over time. This means I'd pay less interest over the life of the loan too. Can you tell me more about how FF beats DF?” That's from Dave. Good question, Dave. Common question. In fact, there was a time in my life, before I ever owned any real estate where that same line of thinking made complete sense to me. I even thought, “If I could be mortgage-free and own a property, I'd have it made.” Dave, let me answer this in a somewhat different way than I've answered it before for other listeners' benefit. If you can borrow at a 6 or 7% mortgage interest rate, which, after tax deductions might be an effective 5% interest rate, many think that they can beat that in the market over time. One probably can. The riskiest thing that a lot of people do by making a big down payment is now they don't have much liquidity. If the cash is already in the home, then that borrower might worry about not having much cash for other disruptions or expenses that come up in life. The worst one could be, “What if you lose your job and your job was, say, 70 to 100% of your income?” Now that cash is trapped in the home as equity… and you can better believe that today, banks aren't going to let you access your equity if you don't have a job. The best way to keep equity separated from your home is to make sure it never goes in there. The other reality too, is that the more than you borrow, the more you make use of OPM. So the great question to ask yourself, Dave, is “How big of a real estate portfolio could I ever build if I limit myself to only using my own money… and NOT other people's money?” We're going to discuss this more later in the show today… but that should provide some sufficient context and food for thought to your question, Dave. Thanks for writing in. You, the listener, can always contact us with any questions at GetRichEducation.com/Contact ________________ Andrew from New York state had a question through our Contact Page. Andrew's been an avid listener for quite a while. I remember your name, Andrew. You're a veterinarian from New York state. I hope that we can meet sometime in the future. Andrew asks: “Is it a true statement to think that even in today's High "er" interest rate environment any mortgage rate under the rate of inflation roughly 8% is a bargain?? Today ..I am not getting great cash flow...$100/month or break even..on new builds...but still see the upside in RE investing due to its inflationary hedge.” Alright, thanks for that Andrew. With the first question, is any mortgage rate under the 8% inflation rate a bargain. Well, it could be. Many think that the real rate of inflation - the true diminished PP of the dollar is 15%. But let's just stick with 8%. Yes, if you get a mortgage at 6 or 7% today, you are effectively being paid to borrow. That is because with the money that you've borrowed from the bank, over time, you get to repay the bank with dollars that debase on the bank faster than THEIR interest can accrue on you. That's how it can stealthily build wealth. The risk associated with that is - besides being most attentive to your personal cash flows, Andrew - is that at some point over your loan term, there's a good chance that inflation will duck back below mortgage interest rates. We're in this inversion now where the opposite is true. So, enjoy it while it lasts. I'd think of your interest rate being lower than inflation as a short-to-medium term tailwind. Your second question was about how today, you're not getting great cash flow when you buy a new-build rental property. It might be positive $100 or just a break even. But you still like investing in RE for the inflation hedge. First, I think of RE as more of an inflation-profiting center than a mere inflation-hedging vehicle. I take you point though… and then… Yeah, a lower $100 positive cash flow or less on new-builds is lower than what we've all been used to in recent years. There's a chance that this will widen - certainly no guarantee. It like how I described a couple weeks ago that we think of the housing market in two waves. First the housing price increase wave hit hard, then there's a trough, then later the rent increase wave hits. The trough between waves is when cash flow is lowest. Though you can't absolutely count on it, rents are increasing torridly. Andrew, I can tell that you're a close listener just by the words and concepts that you're thinking over in your questions. I love that. Thanks for you longtime following. ________________ The third question comes from JW. This question came from our YouTube Channel so I don't know where you're from JW. But you ask: Keith, what are your views on PPPs on commercial loans? On my current 8-unit property I am pursuing, I am getting financing offers that all have PPPs. OK, thanks for the question JW. I think one reason that I chose your question is because I, myself, have owned an 8-unit apartment building that had a 5-year PPP attached to it. First of all, let me tell you what a PPP is. And it's funny. I have been at RE meeting in the past and some people that have never heard of them seem incredulous that a PPP even exists. A prepayment penalty is a fee that some lenders charge if you pay off all or part of your mortgage early. If you have a prepayment penalty, you would have agreed to this when you closed on your home. Now, in my experience, you don't often see these on loans for 1-4 unit properties. I commonly see PPPs on 5+ unit apartment buildings and other commercial loan types. The way that it often works is that your penalty is less severe as each of the five years transpires. It fades. For example, you'd have a higher penalty if you pay it off in 2 years than the lower penalty would be if you pay it off in 4 years. Then with a 5-year PPP, that means that your penalty disappears completely if you pay it off AFTER five years. PPP loans can obviously be a poor choice if you, say, want to add value to a distressed apartment building and do a cash-out refinance in, say two years. So, therefore, for long-term buy-and-hold strategies, 5-year PPPs often fit. I've had 5-year PPPs on numerous occasions on my own apartment buildings, and I have never paid any penalty because I have only accepted those penalty conditions when I plan to hold for more than 5 years. Now that you know about cases when you do and don't want these as part of your loan, maybe you're wondering why banks have PPPs at all. Lenders charge prepayment penalties to provide a borrower with a disincentive for paying off a loan ahead of time… because that causes lenders to lose out on interest income. Lenders have to commit considerable time to evaluate a borrower and underwrite the loan in the first place. That's how PPPs work. Thanks for the question, JW. Stay up-to-date with our newsletter.

Get it & my free video course all in one place at GetRichEducation.com/Letter _________________ Yeah, concise, updated intell from Caeli, as always. All these markets are constantly changing: The market for housing prices The market for rents The market for mortgages Working within them can help get you closer to your Financial Independence Day - that day that your real estate income meets or exceeds all of your basic living expenses. Underwriting guidelines are staying tight, just like they have for more than 10 years now. Dodd-Frank and consumers proving that they have the ability to repay a loan has really helped with that. That's a big reason that the mortgage delinquency rate has fallen to ALL-TIME lows. In fact, that update on second mortgages on rental properties demonstrates that the market still has a pretty limited appetite for that product. You might want it but it still comes with low LTVs if you can get them at all. Some brighter new is that ARMs - Adjustable Rate Mortgages - are making more sense than they used to - when compared to your more typical long-term FRM. There are both risks and rewards to compare there. I like that the good people over there at Ridge help you with decisions like those. So many great & important shows coming up here on GRE - the return of Tax Advisor Tom Wheelwright, a 2-person housing market panel comprised of Kathy Fettke and I… and… oh geez, the return of Chris Voss - the hostage negotiator from Masterclass. Remember when I mock negotiated him for a fourplex building last year right here on the show & I lost… to perhaps the world's top negotiator? Well, here we go, Chris Voss is returning here to discuss how to negotiate in a housing market when the odds are against you. What do you think? Should I mock negotiate him again… I don't know. That's awfully entertaining for you but I don't know how many losses I can take publicly like that. Big thanks to Caeli Ridge today. It's where I go for my own income property loans. You can too, I'm happy to share that with you at RidgeLendingGroup.com Until next week, I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. Happy Financial Independence Day! Though you might quit your day job, don't quit your day dream!
“You DO care about what others think of you. That's your reputation.” -Keith Weinhold People care about your brand when you create value for them. Next, you must reach people. A construction worker in London decided that he wasn't where he was meant to be in life. He's our guest, Steve D. Sims. He started asking others why they were wealthy but he wasn't. A personal branding expert, Steve tells us why the right brand for you is the “authentic you”. When you meet someone, ask them about themselves. They are their own favorite subject. “A brand is what people say about you when you've left the room.” -Steve Sims Brands are either solution-based or aspirational. Every person has a brand. Donald Trump was well-branded because he had clear slogans like “Make America Great Again” and “Build A Wall”. The lesson? Be clear about who you are or what you stand for. It's OK to know what you're “not”. For example, I didn't know how to hire a COO for GRE and still don't have experience managing people.

I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. There's so much to pack into one show today - inflation at its highest rate in over 40 years, the Fed raising interest rates the most in 28 years, rents are going up fast, then GRE's COO Aundrea Newbern & I on our favorite REI resources. Today, on Get Rich Education. _______________________ Welcome to GRE! I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. When it comes to developing your personal brand to it's highest potential, what are those traps you might be falling into that have prevented you from doing so. And… There was once a construction worker in London and one day he realized that this just wasn't where he was meant to be in life. He contributes to the personal brand discussion today too… on this week's episode of Get Rich Education. ______________ Welcome to GRE! From Franklin, MA to Franklin, TN and across 188 nations worldwide… I'm Keith Weinhold. With more than 4 million listens, though you're tuned into one of America's longest-running and most listened-to real estate shows, today, it's about how to develop your personal brand which applies most anywhere. There are a few definitions of a brand. A more strict one is that a brand is an intangible marketing or business concept that helps people identify a company, product, or individual. OK, I guess that's pretty good. Another definition of a brand I've heard that I like is: “Your unique promise kept over time.” That's what a brand is. A big part of keeping promises is doing what you say you're going to do. Therefore, it's a commitment. In my mind, a big part of that is keeping your appointments. If I'm going to collaborate with someone and we have a pre-determined date & time, I put that on my calendar and I would not change that commitment unless some inordinate or unusual circumstance came up. That person trusted me with their time and I trusted them with my time. If someone tells me later that they'd like to re-schedule with me, well, often I don't do it. With all the choices I have for spending my time, their wavering commitment doesn't really reflect so well on their personal brand. Also, other people would have liked to have that time with me & they couldn't get it because I already committed it to that person that wanted to cancel or postpone. People that have their act together, well-branded people, commit and show up on time. I'll give you an example of a well-branded person that keeps commitments - whether you like him or not, in my experience, that is, yep, Rich Dad, Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki. Robert & I have done a bunch of collaborations in the past, I used to be a writer for the Rich Dad Advisors, he's been a guest right here with us on the GRE Podcast four times. Not once have we tried to re-schedule or cancel an appointment on each other. Even if we plan something a month in advance, we keep it. We don't have to send each other reminders. It was put on our calendar at the time we made the appointment, so what more do you need? And you wonder why that guy is so successful. Well, one reason could be that he keeps commitments. Now, when it comes to your personal brand - which includes your belief systems, your values, commitment levels, there's one thing that some people need to “get over” - and I think that Hal Elrod & I touched on this here on the show 3 weeks ago. It's this myth. There are people that brashly say, “Hey, I don't care about what other people think of me.” Oh, that's wrong. You do too care about what other people think. Because that's your reputation. It can be interesting to see the person that says they didn't care about what other people think, say, have a fake social media account made up impersonating their likeness and embarrassing them. You had better believe that person that said they don't care about what other people think… frantically tries to point out that, “Hey, I don't want you thinking that was me over there spamming you.” Someone is impersonating my account. “Oh, well didn't you just say that you don't care about what other people think?” See you did care… and you should. That's your reputation. What if you own a restaurant & people leave negative reviews about your business & you as a businessperson, you care. DO CARE… about what others think. That's honesty. But yeah, don't care too much. People will care about your brand when they know that you can bring them value. When you start with creating value first, second is how are you going to reach people, and then thirdly, it's how are you going to create income. It's value, reach, then income. 1-2-3 I'm reaching you right now with this show. In fact, there was a time, between 5 & 10 years ago, that even by having a show like this, one could create value, reach, and income. For new entrants, those days are gone. The podcast landscape became saturated a few years ago and it's almost impossible to get substantial reach today. For startups today, a podcast is a lot like a website was 20 years ago. Neither one stands out just by virtue of having one. You can have a website just like you can have a podcast, but anymore, how would you ever get enough website visitors to make a difference or how would you attract enough podcast listeners to make a difference. Even celebrities that have name brand recognition that have crossed over and started podcasts usually don't get much traction anymore. They are drowned out in a saturated field. So if you want your brand to reach people today, well, that's a really long discussion and this isn't a marketing show. So I'd start with just two pieces of guidance: #1 - Look for that new media source that isn't crowded today. It might be that “next” media type. For a while, people thought that it might be voice-activated media like Alexa or Siri. I don't really know that that's getting traction like some thought. But that's the way to be thinking. “What's next?” Secondly, if you know of a thought leader that wants to get their message out with a podcast today, rather than starting their own show and entering a crowded field… gosh, starting your own show, you could spin your wheels with many episodes and unlike a website that doesn't need to be constantly updated… … a podcast takes regular releases, and production, advertising, sound engineering and marketing, transcription, and a support network of complimentary resources from video to social media and more. Well, I've got a great shortcut to that… in the podcasting world that will save you a lot of time, money, and frustration. If you know someone that wants to get their message out through a podcast today, the big shortcut is to be a guest on another show that already has a big following. That way, you've outsourced all of the production and marketing and everything else to a proven channel. That can save you hundreds or thousands of hours in your life. Rather than starting a podcast, be a guest on a few big name shows. Now that you know how you're going to provide value to the world, you've got your reach too. Hey, I've got more thoughts like this for you on building your personal brand. Before I share those, let's talk to today's remarkable guest on how to build your personal brand. ___________ Oh, yeah, a really interesting interview with Steve Sims today. One thing we discussed is that you can't snap your fingers and instantly make yourself someone that you're not. It's about gradually being who you are becoming. Now, here at GRE, our show keeps growing and about two years ago, I needed to make a new key hire to run the internal operations here so that I could have enough time clear to make the best content for you every week. But, gosh, I really didn't know how to make a quality hire here - like, to bring in an experienced pro. Realizing I didn't even know how to hire someone, I looked around my network of people… and I knew that Ken McElroy had employed a Hiring Manager, Jennifer, to help him and I tapped her so that Jennifer could find a COO for GRE. Jennifer & I worked on the position advertisement, she interviewed the top candidates, narrowed it down to three, and Aundrea was selected. Then I got Garrett Sutton to help me write the work contract. So, I had acknowledged that hiring a top pro was beyond my skillset. And Aundrea is such a professional here - she has her MBA too - that when GRE added more staff later, she's the one that does the interviewing - not me. And then… continuing in this vein of, “Don't pretend to be someone you're not.” When we make a new hire here at GRE, I don't pretend like I have some lofty corporate experience at knowing how to run things around here. When I first talk to that new hire here, I simply tell them the truth. I say something like: “I found myself with a show here that a lot of people seem to like to listen to… but don't have any experience managing people. So I really want you to feel comfortable in speaking up when you think I could be doing something better.” Yeah, I tell everyone something like that. Alright, well, what did that just do when I told them this? First, it's honesty. It makes me more comfortable It made the new hire more comfortable And finally, I'm not pretending to be someone that I'm not. When I was in the working world, I didn't climb up the corporate ladder. I didn't get that corporate experience. Instead, I decided to leave that world behind. Steve made a terrific point at the end about brand clarity - being clear on what your brand stands for - whether that's your personal brand or your company's brand. I told you near the start of the show that commitment & respecting other people's time is a big part of my personal brand. Certainly, attention to detail too. GRE's brand clarity is in four words: Real Estate Financial Freedom. Those four words tell you where you & I are going together & how you're getting there too. Once you're in the GRE world and tribe, then we can get more nuanced, for example, with our strategy and brand of “FF beats DF”. And with that, you see how “RE FF” is achieved faster. I sign off each show with “Don't Quit Your Daydream” and it's a trademark that we own here at GRE. So the point is, be clear and memorable in order to have a successful brand for yourself. This doesn't have to be that well-developed and you don't have to have terms trademarked to have a strong brand. Juan, my landscaper wacks all the weeds along my fence and doesn't leave any clippings behind. I can see that his brand was there - imprinted in my backyard. Speaking of some other well-branded real estate figures, if you want to listen to Grant Cardone & I together here on the show, where we 10X your wealth together, he was with us on Episode 264. Robert Kiyosaki's latest appearance here on GRE was last year. You will find he & I together most recently on Episode 358. As far as today's chat, you might be interested in SEEING Steve Sims & I's chat from today other than just listening to the audio here. It might help reinforce some of these branding concept for you. He's also just a really interesting figure to see and listen to. You can do that on your YouTube Channel… which is really easy to find and remember… because we're - I suppose - consistently-branded - ha! That's because our YouTube Channel is called “Get Rich Education”. I'd expect that video to be published there by about now. Personal branding means that there is… perhaps… a better investment than leveraged income property. That investment… is YOU. Until next week, I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. Don't Quit Your Daydream!
For many, it's become a scary world with $5-$6 gas, soaring food prices, spiking rents, the medical system is still a mess, and wages aren't keeping up with inflation. Inflation is at a 40-year high of 8.6%. The Fed raised rates ¾%, the biggest jump in 28 years. For every $1M in real estate debt that you have, you're benefiting $86,000 each year due to your debt debasement. Affordability has become so bad for wannabe first-time home buyers that increasingly, they're becoming your renter. Many project rent growth to exceed home price growth this year. Rent.com's Rent Report shows a 26% annual rent increase nationally. Every 1% in a mortgage rate increase decreases a buyer's purchasing power by 12%. GRE's COO Aundrea Newbern, MBA joins me. We discuss our favorite RE information sources. Aundrea expects to diversify her RE portfolio into more markets. She's been focused on southeast Georgia. Some RE resources we use: www.city-data.com, US Census Bureau data, CNBC.com, HousingWire.com, FRED data, the MLS, AirDNA.co, GREmarketplace.com. When considering adding to your RE portfolio, simply talking to a Property Manager can be more valuable than the best website. Aundrea sees a balanced market at prices $250K+, and a sellers' market at prices below $250K in southeast Georgia. Days On Market (DOM), Sale-To-List Price Ratio discussed. LTRs are in high demand and low supply. STRs are saturated in many markets.

I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. There's so much to pack into one show today - inflation at its highest rate in over 40 years, the Fed raising interest rates the most in 28 years, rents are going up fast, then GRE's COO Aundrea Newbern & I on our favorite REI resources. Today, on Get Rich Education. _______________________ Welcome to GRE! From Auckland, NZ to Oakland, CA and across 188 nations worldwide. This is Get Rich Education. I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. Before I discuss real estate, what's happening with inflation & interest rates is so exceptional that I want to cover this first. When the latest inflation reading came in at 8.6%, it dashed hopes that it's peaked. We have no evidence that it's peaked. And as I like to say, that 8.6% is just the level that the government is willing to admit to. It's really higher. It's the third month in a row that it has exceeded 8%. Treasury Secretary Janet "Grandma" Yellen has already warned of what she calls "unacceptable levels of inflation". And Yellen looks like my late Grandma Weinhold. Yeah, they look a lot alike. One difference though, is that Grandma was not wrong about inflation. Another difference between my grandmother and Yellen is that… Janet Yellen never gave me Star Wars action figures on Christmas like my Grandma did. Well, for many people, especially in the lower middle class, it's become a scary world with devastating $5-6 gas, soaring food prices and spiking rents. (I'll get to that shortly). The medical system is still a mess. Wages are up perhaps only 5%. Their quality of life is really suffering now. Libertarians point out that fiat inflation is theft of one's private property. You earned a dollar. Now your prosperity has been stolen. Sneaky shrinkflation is stealing from you too. Yeah, you're not imagining it, Gatorade has trimmed its 32 ounce bottles down to 28 ounces. A small box of Kleenex has shrunk from 65 tissues down to 60. Package sizes are shrinking faster than Lake Mead, all while producers charge the same price or more. That's what shrinkflation means. It's become an awful economic malady for consumers. So, let's talk about higher interest rates since that's what can keep inflation from soaring. Many interest rate types are based off of the Federal Funds Rate. Now, I like to look at history to see what typically happens in like scenarios. History doesn't tell you everything, but many people don't look at it. Rewinding three years, this rate was hiked up to 2.5% by early 2019… and the stock market was freaking out by then. Trump even demanded a rate cut. He got it and that, turned stocks around. Yes, Presidents are supposed to stay independent of the Fed, but, in any case… Just last week, the Fed Funds Rate was raised up to 1.75%... and the stock and crypto markets have already taken a swan dive off the high board. Everyone thinks that rates are going to be raised again at the next Fed meeting next month. So how do you think that equity markets are going to like that? History shows us that they don't. But see, history shows us that even when the Fed Funds Rate is raised to 10%, it can take years to quell inflation. Commodities like housing, food, and energy, often excel in either inflationary times or recessionary times. That's where you want to be. Buy & own what people need, not what they want. These things have a finite supply. Bringing them into existence takes "proof of work". Proof of work means that it takes real world resources to extract or produce something—like framing roof trusses, growing timber for lumber, mining gold, extracting oil, or growing wheat. If you held any of these commodities individually, you might merely hedge inflation. But if you can control an entire commodity by only putting one-quarter or one-fifth of your "skin in the same", then you get to short the dollar too. "Shorting" means that you're betting that something is going to fall in value—the dollar in this case. Now you're creating leverage and arbitrage. You're really profiteering from inflation ehre. Real estate is like a basket of commodities. It is made of: lumber and copper and glass and all kinds of commodities. So, if you have $1M in real estate debt, it's now being debased at a rate of 8.6%. Great. This effect alone has increased your prosperity by $86,000 this year—$86,000 this year alone, and that's besides appreciation, income, tax benefits, and amortization. Yeah, you've got an $86K tailwind. Do you remember back in 2019 when I did the podcast episode called The Debt Decamillionaire? It was Episode 260. You might remember that episode. That's when I touted the counterintuitive merits of taking out $10M in real estate debt... with the payments outsourced to tenants. Now, I know that not everyone has the wherewithal to do that. But if you were able to implement that plan, it has now created an extra $860,000 of annual wealth for you. Yes, as one of just five ways you're paid. If you think that sounds scary - or unconventional - it's definitely unconventional. Because being conventional gets one nowhere. So, though you might have not been able to amass that much good debt, I was ahead of the inflation, helping you get out in front of it to take advantage of it. Of course, I talked about it well before 2019 too. And, no, I sure didn't know that a pandemic was coming in 2020 and it was going to bring all this inflation this quickly… but that is how things worked out. Now, if you're uninitiated on this, if you originate $10M in loans, understand something. Your net worth didn't just decrease by $10M on the day that you got the loan. The day that you originate the loan, what happens is that you've now got $10M in your asset column and $10M in your debt column. Leverage amplifies the $10M in your asset column… and then your debt column erodes through both tenant-made principal paydown - and this higher inflation. Maybe I'm stretching your thinking just merely by discussing 8-figure debt like that. So why is someone really compelled to be a real estate investor today? One big reason is that soaring inflation is going to be around for a while. So last Wednesday, when the Fed raised interest rates three-quarters of 1% - their highest daily increase since 1994. Understand that higher interest rates decrease demand. There's another name for substantially decreased demand. That is called a recession. I don't know if we'll get that far. Now, capitalism is not inherently inflationary. Sure, as employers' demand for labor rises, that's inflationary. But as businesses compete to offer goods and services at the lowest price - which is capitalism - that's deflationary. Libertarians are quick to point out that America has too much government intervention to be considered a truly capitalist economy anymore. That's a different conversation. But some have speculated that politicians are plotting another stimulus check drop on American citizens so that they can deal with inflation. I really hope that they do not do that. Sheesh, this would be a policy blunder. This would be like shooting a man that's already dead. This absurd approach of "printing up currency" would be to help people deal with the consequences of... "printing up currency". If you think that's preposterous, well… Quebec is actually doing this. They're issuing $500 stimulus checks to help the Canadian province's residents deal with inflation. Yeah, that's really happening. Soaring gas prices aren't just painful for summer road-trippers. Because fuel is a critical input for so many goods and services, higher costs are causing havoc across the economy in a lot of places that you wouldn't expect it… Aviation: Airfares in the US skyrocketed 19% in April from a month earlier, an increase that is almost exclusively driven by a jump in jet fuel prices, United CEO Scott Kirby said. Now, you might have expected that one. But get this… Law enforcement: A sheriff's department in Michigan instructed its deputies to cut back on visits for non-urgent calls because it had blasted through its fuel budget with months remaining until a new one kicks in. (Yeah, inflation affecting law enforcement!) Emergency services: An ambulance crew in Pittsburgh said it was limiting its service outside of 911 calls after facing a similar budget crunch. Its fuel expense for the full year is typically $50,000, and it's already got close to that entering June. Landscaping: Lawnmowers and trimmers use gas to make your front yard the envy of the neighborhood. But after absorbing all of the cost increases they can, some landscapers have slapped a surcharge on customers, and others are even looking into electric mowers and propane as an alternative fuel. In any case, a look at history tells us that we could be in for high inflation for a full decade. So make financial decisions accordingly. Risk assets are typically really sensitive to big moves in inflation and interest rates. Major stock indices are down, down, down. And cryptocurrencies are in an all-out historic meltdown. They're more volatile than stocks, and many have lost 50%-60%+ of their value just this year. Crypto trading platforms have halted withdrawals Companies cut jobs Panicked investors dumped their holdings The public is finally dismissing promoters' claims of "Hey, I made $50k on doodoo coin. So you can you!". You don't really hear that lately. Let's Go Brandon Coin, now worth $0.00. And “Let's Go Brandon” coin makes Dogecoin look like some sort of respectable family heirloom. I actually still think bitcoin could have some potential, but… So then where to look? Where do you go for yield today? Some feel that the "true rate of inflation" is 15% today. Then that's how much prosperity you lose by storing cash. (I believe it's wise to hold at least 3-5% of your real estate portfolio's value in cash.) One place could be oil if you think there's still a runup to be had there. But oil has performed well so far this year. Gold still hasn't really awakened despite inflation. What you can do… is… Follow the money. Big institutional buyers like American Homes 4 Rent keep plowing money into real estate, especially single-family rental homes. That's historically the place to be in times of either high inflation or a recession. Though the institutional share is increasing, the overwhelming majority of homes are still bought by individuals just like you. In the fourth quarter of 2021, institutional buyers only comprised 18% of home purchases. As affordability clamps down on wannabe first-time homebuyers, unfortunately, many of these fine people never make it to the closing table. Every 1% in a mortgage rate increase decreases a buyer's PP by 12%. Mortgage interest rates are now 6%+ on OOs, about 7% on rentals. I believe that the only way houses are going to get more affordable anytime soon is if mortgage rates come down. That's because home prices aren't coming down anytime soon. So what do these priced-out people do? Increasingly, they become your renter. Rent price growth is predicted to outpace home price growth this year. Though some measures are lower, Rent.com's Rent Report shows an astounding 26% annual national rent increase. While a lot of major markets are struggling with a streak of Fed rate hikes that could drag on longer than the final two minutes of an NBA game... ...for real estate investors, the rent just keeps flowing in. And here's what it comes down to. Picture this. Like I've discussed before, first home prices rise, and then rents follow later. Picture two waves. Say that these two waves are 18 months apart. The first wave is home prices. Today, prices are still climbing but the wave has likely crested. That second wave that's coming in now are the torrid rent price increases. The trough between the two waves is where the cash flow is worst on new purchases. And now the second wave - that rent increase wave - is building. That's the ah… seafaring here in the rental housing market ocean if you will. Hey, In the past, I've discussed where I've invested and what RE types I like to own. Why don't we hear from GRE's own COO Aundrea Newbern, MBA about how she's positioning her portfolio in this environment of normalizing prices & spiking rents. Also, she & I will discuss some of our favorite resources & websites for real estate info. That's straight ahead. I'm Keith Weinhold. You're listening to Episode 402 of Get Rich Education! __________________ Yeah, great stuff from Aundrea, as always. We discussed markets. Of course, it's about the submarket too. As an example, maybe you don't feel like Erie, PA or Toledo, OH or Grand Rapids, MI are fast-growing markets. Actually, I think Grand Rapids, for one, is growing, but the point is, that even if a metro has a stable population but it's, say, medical district is booming - like a lot of cities' medical districts are… you may very well be better off in an OK metro with a booming medical SUBmarket than you are elsewhere. It's often about that SUBmarket within a metro that really matters to you. There aren't too many places that you can invest & get yield today. But high inflation is the motivator to do so.

The housing market has calmed, but it's still strong. The homeownership rate of 65% is poised to fall these next few years. People must live somewhere. This should make for more renters. Mortgage delinquencies have fallen for seven straight quarters. The forbearance program kept people in their homes. “The Great Reshuffling” describes the US housing market since 2020. Inflation flips money upside-down. Focus on prudent borrowing, not saving. International Man Doug Casey joins us. He calls for a “Greater Depression” ahead. For consumers, the costs of energy, food, and housing have become crippling. Doug thinks that the decline of world economies will continue. World cities have more people living on the streets. He thinks that the Fed can't hike rates very high. It will result in too many debt defaults. Then how will inflation be curbed? Doug thinks you should save, but don't save in dollars. Are price controls coming? That's when the government tells companies that there's a ceiling on the price they can charge for their goods and services. We discuss what you can do to prevent being wiped out in a crisis. I discuss living well vs. austerity.

I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. While much of America & the world keeps getting crushed by inflation, you're profiting from it. I provide you with a housing market update… then, as higher inflation reduces the quality of life for so many WORLD residents, today's guest gives both us a global and national perspective on the prospects for a DEpression, today on Get Rich Education. __________________ Welcome to GRE! From NYC's Brooklyn Bridge to Bainbridge Island, WA and across 188 nations worldwide, I'm Keith Weinhold. This is GRE! And it's Episode 401. Now, no, it's definitely not episode 401(k). No life deferral plans here! Uh, oh excuse me… they'e called… uh, tax deferral plans. Though life-deferral plans would be a more apropos moniker. I'm grateful that you're here for another wealth-building week. Now… asking an angry spouse to calm down is not exactly a tactic that's... effective. By now, Jerome Powell has been effective at raising interest rates to help America's housing market calm down. Though mortgage rates have inched lower in recent weeks, they're still 2% higher now than they were a year ago today. In fact, the rate rise from early March to early May was the swiftest that I've seen in my entire life. Rates scaled a wall. Clearly, this impacts affordability. The rate of property sales is a little lower now… off its peak. It's getting more Darwinian out there. The NAR estimates that 15% of wannabe first-time homebuyers will be priced out of the market this year. People have to live somewhere. If they can't own, they'll have to rent... or keep living in their parents' basement… that's an option for some people too. Right now, the homeownership rate is 65%... and that is pretty close to the average of the past few American generations. I'll tell you… that 65% homeownership rate is poised to fall faster than dogecoin. Well, what this likely falling home ownership rate means is that the renter pool should swell, putting more upward pressure on rents. That's what happens. If home ownership goes from 65% to 60%, then America's renter proportion basically goes from 35% up to 40%. You know how I've talked about how home prices rise first, then rent increases lag behind? Well, this is it. This is the place and time where rents catch up. With housing prices, are we set up for a recipe of "housing crash" or is it more like "housing calm"? Looking at purchase applications, demand is probably past its peak. But housing demand still drastically exceeds supply. Normal housing supply is about 1.5 million units. We've come up from a jaw-dropping paucity of 376,000 homes back in February. And it's still just 516,000 now (chart). We're only up a tad from famine-like levels. America still needs about 300% more inventory just to bring the market back into supply-demand balance. Housing supply is inelastic; it cannot be increased quickly. It'll take several years to reach balance. How else can we measure this balance? One way is with days on market (DOM). Pre-pandemic it was 45 days. Now, despite higher interest rates, it's under 30 days & under 20 days in a lot of markets. Mortgage delinquencies have fallen for seven straight quarters. The forbearance program worked. One can critique its morality. But it kept people from losing their homes. As the market entropy - with wild bidding wars & a “free for all”, couldn't last forever - nor was it good that that condition persist - it's still a strong housing market. Expect a gradual return to a calmer, more normalized condition. Yes, “calmer” market conditions are poised to emerge here. Hey, pretty soon, you might not have to offer more than the list price for a property. Expect less competition from all-cash buyers. Sheesh, “all-cash buyers”. What are those zero-leverage psychos doing anyway? Hey, property inspections are coming back. Imagine that you can ask a seller to fix some things for you and not fear that they'll reject your offer. So what is the bottom line with today's housing market? Rents should keep rising faster than historic norms. Supply is so low that housing price crash prospects are near zero, probably even through 2023. 20%+ annual price increases still exist in many markets. Nationally, this is calming now. By the end of the year, home price appreciation should still be higher than the historic norm of 5%. And you know… Back on December 1st of last year, I published GRE's 2022 National Median Housing Price Forecast and I also announced it on this show at that time that I expected a 9% to 10% rate of home price appreciation this year. We're nearly at mid-year here, and I still like how that forecast looks. In America, you've heard of the Great Resignation or the Great Migration but I think that the term that best encapsulates what's gone on in American housing since the start of this decade is “The Great Reshuffling”. Working from home was a significant driver of this "Great Reshuffling" and accounted for more than half of the steep increases in home prices seen during the pandemic. That's what new research has found by the Nat'l Bureau Of Economic Research. By now, you've got more Americans that are shuffled into place. That found that long-term home with the realities of their new life. That's the bottom line. There is a Great Reshuffling, and now people are settling into place so we're kind of seeing this welcome “calming” of the housing market as we move toward eventually settling into more normal conditions. Well, hey. Thank you for the “Instant Reaction” from so many of you after last week's milestone Episode 400 where Hal Elrod & I discuss how to improve relationships and be a person of value. Greg from the United States remarked: “Two of my favorite people were together in one episode. I've been following Keith since the beginning of his podcast and journey… and I love “The Miracle Morning” and practice it habitually. Roxana from Romania said, This was just phenomenal! A terrific talk that I listened to three times already. Thank you for all the good that you do through GRE! Congratulations for 400 episodes.” I appreciate the remarks there, thanks. You know, I want to hear from you, the listener. If you've been following along here and you've acted by putting income property into your portfolio and you're now the beneficiary of inflation & you're profiting from this inflation… with the Inflation Triple Crown… from time-to-time, we like to have a listener on the show. If that interests you, reach out to us through: GetRichEducation.com/Contact There's no guarantee that we can get you on the show here. We have 50x as many requests to appear on the show as available slots. But if you've had your life impacted, we want to hear from you. You don't need to be a big name. In fact, if you're just sort of salary or wage-earning person that's had their life impacted by taking GRE principles and putting them into action, I want to hear from you. Again, get started there at: GetRichEducation.com/Contact Inflation flips money upside-down. Though inflation isn't a new story, most experts believe that inflation is going to stay elevated for a longer period of time here. I think that some people - everyday people - let themselves be coerced by inflation. So they cut back on grocery spending & complain about car gasoline prices & lament that their 401(k) is plummeting & live small and maybe even live miserable. Then there's this increasingly popular narrative that seems to enforce that - you'll do with less & you'll be happy about it. And you hear more about buzzy terms, like, well “Reducing your standard of living is what “sustainable” looks like. Don't you want to live sustainably?” And people will try to conserve gasoline consumption by biking in the rain and having a muddy streak up their back. Now, all things equal. I think that doing this for the environment can be good. That's fine. Rather than sustainability, some try to mask the quality of life degradation (from inflation)... justifying it with… well, I'm practicing “minimalism”. Minimalism. Yeah, I don't need to go on vacations. Translation = I'm too fearful of my financial security to even get out and see the very world that I live in. Whoever said that less is more never had more… and why have more when you can “have it all”? I kid a little bit here… But… if you keep your quality of life because you invested in real assets with good debt… then go ahead and recycle some more consumable items in your household if you want to help the environment. You don't get to recycle your life. You've only got one of those… at least here on this earth. Today's guest believes that the prospect of a Greater Depression lies ahead. Let's explore this together, today. _________________ Yeah, it's good to get the bigger-picture perspective sometimes. Doug feels that future RE price increases could be in question. Well, even if appreciation completely stopped in the future, today you can still lock in low mortgage interest rates & rent that property to others… with persistently high inflation debasing your debt all along. I brought up price controls in our chat today, which is when the government steps in & says something like, no, gas station, you absolutely cannot charge more than $6 per gallon for gasoline, or no, leaf lettuce grower, you cannot charge more than $4 for a one pound bunch of leaf lettuce. That ceiling - that price control - has often led to disastrous consequences for economies. Prices often got high in the first place because there's a relative scarcity of those goods. Then if you put a price control on, say, leaf lettuce, then producers are less incentivized to produce. They won't produce at a loss. When producers stop producing, then there's even less reason for anyone to produce the item, making it more scarce, making your consumer choices more narrow & making your life worse. Price controls can turn out to be a form of austerity. Then there's more direct austerity - which is analogous to saying that you cannot run your air conditioner below 80 degrees in order to conserve electricity. Well, that DIRECT austerity measure also reduces your quality of life… and it's politically unpopular. A President doesn't want to institute a direct austerity measure like electricity conservation. So a price control has more political expediency than austerity but it can have the same drastic result - reducing your consumer choice and quality of life. If you picked up on what Doug was saying, he said that you can save. But don't save in dollars. Saving in dollars guarantees a diminishment of your purchasing power. My take is that saving in dollars guarantees a loss in you & your family's standard of living. So the best way to avoid a “Greater Depression” at home, is to be vigilant that… Inflation flips money upside-down. Get out of dollars. Get into real assets & debt.

You often relate to other people when you show yourself as vulnerable and fallible. In many contexts, this is even better than acting professionally. Today's guest, “Miracle Morning” author Hal Elrod, tells us that people spend too much effort trying to impress others. When you give the most, it's liberating. “You SHOULD care about what others think of you. That's your reputation.” -Keith Weinhold Once, Hal e-mailed friends, ex-girlfriends and colleagues to seek criticism about himself. That feedback hurt. Everyone wants change, but no one wants to change. Generosity, selflessness, and contribution foster meaningful relationships. I share that viewers were recently critical of my YouTube video. Hal admits that he believes that he's not a great listener. Hal strives to add value to every single person that he meets. Aundrea Newbern, GRE Operations Lead, joins us for milestone Episode 400.

I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. Being a person of value and building lasting relationships often comes down to self disinterest, empathy, and connection. You're going to build not just your wealth mindset, but your skillset. It's milestone Episode 400, today, on Get Rich Education! Welcome to GRE! From Cherry Hill, NJ to Cherry Springs Dark Skies Park, PA and across 188 nations worldwide, you're listening to one of America's longest-running and most-listened to shows on real estate investing. That's our major so to speak… with minors in economics and wealth mindset. I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. You probably know that after 400 episodes. Today's guest doesn't often do podcast conversations like this. But GRE's Operations Lead, Aundrea introduced me to “Miracle Morning” author Hal Elrod last year. So Hal is standing by, and then, a bonus, as Aundrea joins me near the end of the show today as well. Yeah, so here on milestone Episode 400, there aren't any balloons falling out of the sky or anything. It's an opportunity to expand your thoughts & mindset & skillset in a different direction that should benefit you both within real estate investing & your broader life outside of it - from relationships with your real estate agent to your spouse. In human relations, more than ever, people relate more to you as a vulnerable and even fallible person than they do as one that acts strictly like a professional in a lot of circumstances. The best way to show others in a business relationship (that you don't know very well) that you're a real human being & that loosens up both of you & make you laugh is when you go out of your way to point out that when you left home this morning… you've got mismatched socks on… and you make some joke about it… something innocuous yet relatable like that. Then there's handling ego and criticism in a way that makes you endearing and empathetic. And by the way, the definition of empathy is “the ability to understand and share the feelings of another person.” Now, we get overwhelmingly positive feedback and comments about the show here… and I am grateful to you for that, whether it's through Apple Podcasts reviews, or where you can always reach out if you've got a question or concern or suggestion at GetRichEducation.com/Contact… or increasingly, we get more & more comments from you on our Get Rich Education YouTube Channel. There is a rather robust comments section there… … and there's one popular video that we have over there. It has more than 100,000 views and a lot of “Likes” and “Comments”. And I was rather criticized for how I handled this video - it was an interview. Now, it was the type of video that crossed over, it didn't bring in our usual real estate investor crowd. It was kind of a hybrid crowd of geography & real estate. And, again, we get overwhelmingly positive feedback here. But the nice remarks aren't where you get the lessons, so… I got dozens of critical comments on this video… and these commenters were clearly critical of the way that I handled the interview. It wasn't the guest. Comments were rather disparate. Some said that I brought no value to that interview - I was the host with a fairly prominent guest. Others said that I talked too much, some said I talked too little, it just seemed like I couldn't do anything right with that crowd. Now, one way that I could have handled it is set a policy here that any negative comments have to be deleted. We could have just deleted them all. Well, I don't want to do that. You can disagree. In fact, some say that a disagreement is actually the start of a great conversation. We could go in there & reply and tell the commenter that they're being dumb or say something else disparaging. Here's how I handled it once I learned about this. I went into the YouTube comments myself, read a bunch of the criticism, and made individual responses to a bunch of them. My response was something like: Hey, thanks for the feedback. Others seem to take exception to this material too. It is probably in my best interest to read all of these comments, see what I can learn from this, and I've got to do better next time. I have clearly disappointed a lot of people. That was my response. Something like that. Well, what did that do… it appeared to engender… empathy, really. Some of the detracting commenters then came back to me & said, “Aw, you know, that wasn't so bad. I don't think there's much that you need to change. I still learned a lot from your video.” See, when I showed the world that I'm listening and that I'm a fallible human being, just like we all are, sometimes it makes the critic come back and sort of repent or even reconsider. Next week, here on the show, “International Man” Doug Casey & I are going to discuss economics and what he thinks the prospects of entering what he calls “The Greater Depression” are. Today, Hal Elrod & I on how you can be a person of value and build meaningful relationships…
Have you ever met anyone that created wealth with stocks? I haven't. Why not? Inflation, emotion, taxes, fees and volatility are the reasons. I break this down. The Rule of 72 is what traditional advisers cite as a wealth-builder. I describe why this does not work. Learn why returns from stock and mutual funds are often less than zero. What really creates wealth? Leverage. Learn trade-offs between long-term rentals and short-term rentals. Zach Lemaster joins us. A licensed optometrist and captain for the US Air Force, he's become financially-free through real estate. We discuss the pros and cons of owning “Build-To-Rent” new construction income properties. It takes patience during the build process.

Why Don't Stocks Create Wealth? After answering that, learn about some tradeoffs between LTRs and STRs, and the pros & cons of getting a construction loan and new-build rental properties. Today, on Get Rich Education. ____________________ Welcome to GRE! From Hialeah, FL to Haleakala, HI and across 188 nations worldwide - that's almost all of them - I'm Keith Weinhold. This is Get Rich Education. I find it interesting that there are still smart people out there who think that stocks create wealth. Everyday people could create wealth just by investing in stocks or mutual funds or ETFs? I'll tell ya. I have never met anyone in my entire life that has become wealthy from investing in these vehicles. Now, that's something that shouldn't offend stock adherents. That has been my personal experience. Just asking around here at GRE a bit, I found that our Content Manager, Matthew… he said that he once knew just one person that did get wealthy with stocks… and that is because that person's company IPO'ed. OK, well that's worth knowing. But as for everyday investors, what one might call a retail investor that buys and owns Apple stock or Amazon stock or bought the S&P 500 Index fund from a big mutual fund company… I mean… do you know anyone that ever created wealth from stocks? Or do you even know anyone that ever knew someone that created wealth with stocks. I'm talking about creating wealth. For example, someone that started at a level of either "just getting by" or starting at a level of "middle class" and then transitioned to "wealthy", simply through shrewd and savvy stock investing. I think a lot of people invest in stocks just because that's what the herd does. But they never ask themselves at all… "Have I actually met anyone that's ever created wealth from stocks?" And if you run with the herd, you don't get ahead. So why is this? How come virtually no one gets wealthy with stocks? Well, look. We all learn and understand the world through different lenses. I'm about to share the thought paradigm that shifted my own personal journey… and why I have not personally - or through an LLC - or in any way, owned any stock, or mutual fund, or ETF since the year 2014. Right now, major stock indices are flirting with bear market territory. This means a value loss of 20% from a recent peak. Recently, the Dow Jones posted its eighth straight weekly loss. That's its longest weekly losing streak since 1923. Could we say that misery loves companies? Big Tech has shrunk to Medium Tech. Even staid reliables like Apple, Target, and Walmart are tanking. Other than a one-month virus "flash crash" in March of 2020, many Millennials and Gen Zers have zero experience with a sustained bear market. None have occurred for thirteen years, which is an unusually long time frame. Perhaps these investors will "sell low"; maybe they'll stay the course. Now, investing in the stock market is so common - and so herdlike - that if you're talking in a general conversation and say: “the market” - people just assume that you mean the stock market. Well, shouldn't “the market” be creating wealth for people. After all, the S&P 500 has averaged a 10% annual return over time. In order to emphasize compounded returns, something that traditional, old school advisers often cite is "The Rule of 72". You've probably heard of it. What you do is take the number 72, divide it by your annual percent return (10), and that's how many years it takes your money to double. Therefore, an S&P 500 investor should double their money every 7.2 years. Well, that sounds pretty good to most people.. Then over the decades, several doublings should ensure a fantastic retirement and perhaps even a taste of wealth. But why doesn't it? Why doesn't it provide a fantastic retirement most times? And why doesn't it put people on that wealthy echelon… ever? This is due to five chief drags—inflation, emotion, taxes, fees, and volatility. I've glossed over that before. But lets see how this all negates what so many investors think is some kind of good return. Let's subtract each one from this 10% unadjusted stock return. Inflation Many experts agree that the CPI, currently 8%+, understates the true rate of inflation. It could be 15% now. But let's just say that long-term, true inflation averages 5%. Yes, you could make the case that it's more. But let's just use 5% inflation. Well then... …your long-term 10% stock return minus 5% inflation = 5% inflation-adjusted return. Emotion Everyone knows you're supposed to "buy low" and "sell high". But many do the opposite. Why? One has difficulty buying low because prices have often fallen for a long period of time before the dip. The predominant emotion is discouragement. When stock prices have gone down, down, down, like they have this year, so many people get emotional and sell low… and they justify that by saying… I'm sick of losing money… and if I sell, I guarantee that I'll stop losing money. So many sell low. But on the flip side, why isn't everyone selling high? It's because prices have grown. It's hard to sell out of upward momentum. Up, up, up, up, up, friends are making money. You've got FOMO. This emotion is euphoria. This makes people buy - maybe not at the peak - buy they often buy higher that what they sold for. But despite all this, most people believe that they're above-average investors—despite the statistical impossibility. This effect is called illusory superiority. It's like how 7 out of 10 people believe that they are above-average drivers. People often sell lower & buy higher. We'll just say this takes one's 5% inflation-adjusted stock return down to 4%. That's being kind. Taxes & Fees Long-term capital gains taxes start at 15%. The highest ordinary income tax rate is 37%, which is the short-term capital gains tax equivalent. Those percentages are what get taken out of your profit - that's what eats into the entire 10% return that we started out with here. Even if your funds are sheltered in a 401(k) or many retirement account types, yes, you could get tax-deferred growth. But you must begin paying taxes in retirement. Fees are something that vary quite widely. So… an S&P 500 investor's return adjusted for: inflation, emotion, taxes, and fees is often below 2%. Maybe far below 2%. We're not done. Volatility So many people miss this. The Rule of 72 and other projections are based on a fixed annual rate of interest. It's called the compound annual growth rate (CAGR). Our example… with this Rule Of 72 assumed a smooth, exact 10% return every single year. This is irresponsibly quixotic. The real world doesn't work this way. Let's say that a price falls 20%—which again is a bear market. Now, you must gain 25% to get back to "even". That's just math. Now, if it falls 40%, it must gain 66.7% just to return to sea level. Using a smoothed CAGR diminishes the damaging effect of return volatility. So let's take our 2% return that's already been adjusted for: inflation, emotion, taxes, fees. Now subtract out this volatility. And now, you can see why real rates of return are often less than 0% for stock, mutual fund, and ETF investors. Maybe they're minus 3%. Maybe they're minus 12%. Real stock returns often crumble faster than a Nature Valley granola bar. They're not good for you either—full of sugar and canola oil. Note that I even used what many consider "good times" in my example—where we started with a 10% unadjusted return. This is an audio format here on GRE Podcast Episode #399 so my analysis wasn't deeply technical nor replete with formulas for pinpoint accuracy. You might remember when we had Garrett Gunderson here on the show a few times. He really goes deep on how stock & mutual fund investors typically lose prosperity year-after-year and Garrett thinks that I'm being kind when I say that a stock investor's real return is “0”. It helps you begin to understand why you rarely—if ever—met anyone that acquired wealth with these vehicles. About ten years ago, while working at the state Department of Transportation in an 8' x 10' blue cubicle, I began to realize some things: Investing in retirement plans makes me safe and normal. I don't want a life that's safe and normal. That's not extraordinary at all. Every dollar invested in stocks and mutual funds is a dollar that cannot leverage other people's money. Retirement plans provide zero income until I'm old. I won't get ahead by following the herd. Later, I interviewed the actual man that invented the 401(k) plan, Ted Benna. Benna told me directly that the plans don't serve people the way they were intended. This helped complete my catharsis. And my interview with Ted Benna is recorded. You might remember that episode. That was GRE Podcast Episode 197… if you haven't heard it. Yeah, the guy that actually invented the 401(k) in the late 1970s. That's here on Episode 197. So, now you understand much of why I haven't owned any stock, mutual fund, or ETF-based investment at all since 2014. This show is called “Get Rich Education”. So I could talk about anything related to wealth-building and stay on-point. But now you understand why I don't discuss stocks. Real estate has some drags too. For example, investors often underestimate their maintenance and repair costs. Ultimately, the fact that Real Estate Pays 5 Ways™ is why it's superior. It's how anything less than a 20% to 25% fully-adjusted rate of return is disappointing (learn more). Because real estate is an illiquid asset, this acts as a healthy barrier against "panic" buying or selling. Illiquidity diminishes the deleterious effects of emotion and volatility. I do know investors who have created financial freedom through real estate, a lot of them, and I'm one. If I can distill it down into one word for you, the short story about why I've met countless people that have graduated from middle class to wealthy through real estate is leverage. Some of this is natural bias because I hang out in real estate circles, so I just tend to meet more of these people. To stock investors, leverage is only available to more sophisticated types. Even then, it often comes with margin call risk. It's in a more limited measure than its wide availability in real estate. Bear markets… like we have right now in stocks make people re-evaluate things. To a younger investor that's potentially experiencing their first sustained stock bear market now, it's important to understand that... ...generally, stocks are not a game designed to build wealth for everyday people anyway. Times like these make people revert to fundamentals. Ultimately, your success as an investor hinges upon your ability to provide others with value. Be a person of value in the world. There have been few times in modern history when owning real estate demonstrates more intrinsic value than it does today. You're providing others with what has increased in usefulness and is historically scarce in supply… at the same time. Wealth comes down to your ability to be valuable. When it comes to residential real estate, there are so many ways that we can segment it. Later on today, we'll discuss new-build properties vs. existing properties and what's going on in those markets today. We can also parse the space with LTRs vs. STRs. When we define that, of course, as the name would allude to, it is based on the duration of resident stay. Depending on the jurisdiction and more, a rental period of under 30 days could be considered a STR (some people refer to these as AirBNBs or VRBOs)… or even up to lease periods of less than 6 months could be considered STR. LTRs have more predictable long-term income… because a tenant often signs on for a lease period of one year or more… and LTRs are also more recession-resilient. STRs have lower occupancy - but because the daily rate is so much higher, they can be more profitable than LTRs. When you look at any investment, it's so fundamental to understand who you serve. Back to my point about stocks, it helps you understand how you can be a person of value. In LTRs, you serve families, roommates, and everyday mom & pops. Until just five years ago, STRs principally served two groups of people - Vacationers & business travelers. With what happened in the world starting in 2020 with the virus, the STR community was concerned that the business traveler would go away & not come back. But it didn't seem to matter, because increasingly, over the last 5+ year, you have more & more digital nomads and WFA-types that rent STRs. LTRs - Midwest & South, away from city center STR Location - resorts, beach communities, ski resorts HOA limits are something that you have more of with STRs. STR lodging or rental tax to the resident, you also get to charge the resident with the cleaning fee Property Mgmt. costs tend to be 8-10% of each month's for the owner of LTRs. For STRs, you'll often pay 20% or more since there are more resident turns & more advertising & listings to manage. When it comes to financing, you'll often find LTRs to have more availability than STRs. This is huge… since leverage is what really creates wealth. Damages: STRs tenants pay upfront and usually place a CC on file to cover any damages. So there is some more protection that way. One great piece of REI guidance is that the best STRs are the property types where if that market dried up, you could fall back onto them and use that same property as a viable LTRs. To summarize what you've learned so far today… The definition of a bear market is when a market has lost 20% or more of its value from a recent high. Stocks don't create wealth due to inflation, emotion, taxes, fees, and volatility. A lot of people miss that until it's too late and it's nearly retirement time - or when they thought they could retire. LTRs and STRs have a lot of trade-offs. LTRs are easier to finance and have more recession resistance. STRs can provide more income when its dialed in just right. LTRs have the longer track record. Coming up, a guest & I are going to discuss today's opportunity on brand new construction rental property. That's straight ahead. I'm Keith Weinhold. This is Get Rich Education. ______________________ Oh, yeah. Some good content from our guest on the pros and cons of using a construction loan with these new-build rental properties. You sure don't have to go that route if you don't want to. For this batch of properties, and it is an ongoing batch of constantly refreshing properties, if you want to get to the front of the line, go ahead and e-mail our investment coach Naresh. You not only get access to available properties - SFHs up to four-plex & sometimes larger, existing build & new-build, some properties conducive to STRs at times - though most are LTRs… some really inexpensive properties, at times less than $150K - they would tend to be existing, renovated properties, not new ones. For access to all those property types and free coaching, contact Naresh here. You can do that at: naresh@getricheducation.com Coming up here on the show… next week, for milestone episode 400 - it is Miracle Morning author Hal Elrod & I, discussing investor mindset and relationship-building in real estate. Yes, it look longer than I expected to get Hal & I together at the same time. That finally happens next week. Our Operations Lead here at GRE, Aundrea, is expected to be here with you & I for that show next week too. The week after Hal Elrod, the “International Man”, Doug Casey joins us. Last time he was here, we discussed ideals like liberty & freedom. This time, it's going to be about economics & it's usually pretty gloomy commentary with Doug… but he keeps it real. Then, down the road, Rich Dad Tax Advisor Tom Wheelwright is back on the show with us yet again to help you cut your taxes toward zero. So with Hal Elrod, Doug Casey, and Tom Wheelwright coming up… I'd say that one inspires you, one depresses you, and one informs you. Hal being the inspiration Doug being the source of the depression - he knows that I kid, I was joking with Doug Casey about that last time And then, Tom Wheelwright being informative with… seemingly… some new tax plan that he has to tell you about. Then after that, negotiation expert Chris Voss returns to the show. You might have seen his masterclass course. So… GRE is so stacked with great shows in the near future here. In inflationary times, there is no better place to invest than in real estate. I mean, even if you bought a property with no loan & with no tenant in it, real estate would be an inflation hedge just based on that alone… just based on it's capital price tracking inflation. But then you get the leverage where you can 4X or 5X inflation… while also having your debt debased… while also having your cash flow OUTPACE inflation since your biggest expense - the mortgage - stays fixed. This is just one of so many reasons why real estate is what's made more ordinary people wealthy than anything else. I really encourage you to get started… not only do we have this new coaching service steeped in GRE principles… but it's also free… and we also have available properties. I encourage you to reach out to our friendly GRE Investment Coach, Naresh at naresh@getricheducation.com Until next week for Episode 400, I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. DQYD!

The mad scientist of multifamily is here today. Neal Bawa is a data scientist. He keeps emotion out of real estate for investors in his $947M portfolio. He believes that higher mortgage interest rates are a smaller obstacle than the Fed's currency creation and destruction. He says: “Accept the risk.” We discuss investor confirmation bias.

Rents are spiking 13-15% annually in America today. When they rise, they rarely ever fall again. This is why rent amounts are called “sticky”. Learn why. Even when I was a landlord during the GFC fifteen years ago, my rents didn't fall. Rents are skyrocketing due to: Low housing supply Higher prices Higher interest rates Demographics. 25-34 year-olds are in prime household formation years. They want their own place. This is America's most populous age cohort. Next, I talk with an Alabama / Florida builder about how he overcomes today's material supply chain and labor shortage difficulties. They have a 93-day build time. How? They store windows so that they cannot run out. Cabinets have been a problem so bad that they've had to leave homes 99% complete until cabinets were ready. Lumber and petroleum product price volatility has been a challenge. They have their own division for titling vacant land for future building. Alabama has America's 2nd-lowest property taxes. As an out-of-state investor, you get to pay property tax in the state where you own property, not where you live.

The housing crash is 100% certain. That's because it's a supply crash, not a price crash. I define a price crash as a loss in valuation of 20% or more. Here are the bubble factors that I consider in today's show: Price, inflation-adjusted price, interest rates, affordability, bond yields, personal incomes, foreign buyers, equity position, housing supply and more. From 2018 to 2022, I tell you about my recent housing forecast history. Redfin shows us signs of a housing market slowdown. For Jacksonville investment property, start here: www.GREmarketplace.com/JAX Properties that don't cash flow with a 20% down payment often do with a 40% down payment.

One niche that people are passionate about is investing in self-storage facilities (SSF). SSFs are recession-resilient and there's less to maintain. Your “tenants” are often cardboard boxes, not humans. This makes it easy to manage. Tenants often expect to stay for 6 months, but stay for 3 years. A 10 x 10 storage space might rent for $200. You could increase the rent by 10% to $220. They won't move out due to a $20 increase, but you got a 10% rent hike across all your units. The best SSF locations are accessible, for example, near an expressway interchange. SSFs are little more than 4 pieces of sheet metal, a floor, and a door. You can invest alongside today's SSF expert guest, Dave, at: www.gremarketplace.com/selfstorage This business model: Buy property from a mom-and-pop operator, add size and scale, and sell to a REIT, all in a 3 to 6-year span. One must be accredited and invest at least $50K. Investors receive reports quarterly. SSF cash flow is modest, typically 3-7%. This is an equity play, where you could 2-3X your funds on the sale at exit time.

Why are home prices surging? I've got 10 big reasons and break down every one. Some reasons are not obvious. America's residential loan-to-value ratio is just 31%.

Uncertainty is high. Inflation is spiking, supply chains are unreliable, and COVID keeps hanging around. Russia's invasion of Ukraine threatens to make inflation and supply chain reliability worse. Amidst this backdrop, today's guest, Richard Duncan, discusses prospects for a US recession. Richard reiterates that the US needs credit growth of at least 2% annually (inflation-adjusted) to avoid a recession. In a recession, nearly every asset class would be affected. The wealth-to-income ratio's importance is discussed. The Fed has begun hiking interest rates. They soon plan to begin destroying dollars with quantitative tightening. Richard wrote a new book, The Money Revolution. It includes a history of the Fed, and points out that China is positioned to become more powerful than the US. But the US can stay in power if it creates tons of money in order to finance infrastructure, green energy, biotech, nanotech, and more innovation. Richard maintains that capitalism no longer drives the economy. It's “creditism” and “consumerism”. I ask Richard about the risk of creating more dollars than production and innovation. Contrary to seemingly everybody, Richard believes that the Fed is a force for good.

Now you have to earn your money twice. The first time is when you work for it, the second time is when you must invest it to beat inflation. My explainer on why higher interest rates slow inflation. “Inflation is legalized counterfeiting. Counterfeiting is criminalized inflation.” -Robert Breedlove When wages don't keep pace with inflation, I explain why it destroys families. We compare short-term (STR) and long-term rental (LTR) property in southwest Florida. Get started with buying properties yourself at: https://gremarketplace.com/SouthwestFlorida Of course, Florida is an in-migration hotbed. Home price appreciation and rents are both 10%-20%+ year-over-year. Today's LTR tenants seek: infill lots, more square footage, an extra bedroom / den, and grocery store proximity. STR tenants want a pool. You really make your money November through April. LTRs have more recession resistance than STRs. LTRs have more predictable, year-round income. STRs often have $4,000-$5,000 a week of rent income. They have a 20% management fee. You can charge the tenants a cleaning fee. You owe utility costs and ~$100 monthly yard maintenance. Single-family rental properties are 1,500-1,900 sf on a ¼ acre lot, LVP flooring, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, 9'4” ceilings, and concrete block exterior walls. Pricing is in the low $300Ks to low $400Ks. Long-term rents are $2,000-$2,400 / month.

Today's high inflation rate is poised to go higher. The latest CPI was up 7.9%. Home prices hit an all time high of $364,000 per Redfin, up 16% annually. Safety factors, building restrictions and the environmental movement all contribute to higher home prices and more homelessness.

A high school teacher reveals the sad state of financial education today. Most students still think the path is: go to school, get good grades, go to college, get a job, work until you're 65, and then start enjoying life. Dan Sheeks is a Denver, Colorado-based high school teacher and real estate investor. He enjoys working with teenagers. He also volunteers for the Colorado Attorney General to advance financial education. Just last month, Dan released a book with Bigger Pockets: “First to a Million: A Teenager's Guide to Achieving Early Financial Independence”. See it here. He discusses solutions for teenage financial independence: 1) When you turn 18, get your first credit card 2) “House hack” real estate by age 21 3) Good debt vs. bad debt - do teens understand? 4) Mindset 5) Avoiding mistakes like “meme coins” 6) Saving Dan tells us the two main reasons why there's a pathetic lack of financial education in school today - funding and politics.

With higher property prices, what rent-to-value ratio makes sense today? I answer this thoroughly. Lower RVs make sense today due to: lower interest rates, new-build properties, the timing of equity harvesting and more. GRE Marketplace is coming soon. Tom Wheelwright joins us to help you reduce your property tax and cryptocurrency tax. Learn why some states have higher property tax than income tax or vice versa - CA, TX, NY, NJ, AK, and more. Many property tax professionals only get paid based on how much they reduce your property tax. Learn what works in actually getting your property tax reduced: comparables. In cryptocurrency, you are taxed on either a sale or an exchange - not just a sale. For example, if you trade bitcoin for ethereum, you have a tax consequence. If you buy a $3 cup of coffee with crypto, that is usually taxed. Miners of crypto are taxed when they mine it, not only when they sell it. Crypto is taxed at capital gains tax rates. Tom does not believe that crypto will be outlawed in the US. Rather, it will be regulated through taxation and reporting. Get our free wealth-building “Don't Quit Your Daydream” Letter.

I sold an eight plex apartment building for $789,000 last week. Learn lessons from my sale. Dr. Randall Wray joins us to discuss where our economy is headed. He tells us about inflation, taxes, interest rates, and supply chain disruption dynamics. Is Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) a utopia or disaster? Taxes remove currency from the economy. This reduces inflation. What about Universal Basic Income (UBI)? This basically means writing regular monthly checks to every citizen. Dr. Wray has strong opinions here. Rapid currency creation and inflation is explored. Dr. Randall Wray provides his recipe for full employment and stable prices. It includes his answer of a “job creation program”.

Learn why I believe US home prices will rise 9-10% next year. That's higher than historic norms and lower than this year. Expect higher mortgage interest rates too. Counterintuitively, higher mortgage rates correlate with higher housing prices. Higher rates also correlate with lower supply. Today, inflation (6.2%) is double of mortgage interest rates (3.1%). This means that when you repay the bank, those dollars debase on them twice as fast as the bank's interest charges can accrue on you. Since 1994, mortgage rates have risen six times. House prices rose every time. Next year, the same thing is expected to happen; it will be seven in a row. I explain why higher rates correlate with lower housing supply. Housing supply has dropped an astounding 63% from two years ago. That's the housing crash; it was a supply crash.

I talk with the person who I lend money to in order to rehab distressed properties. We discuss how it works and the 6-12% annual returns. Importantly, many properties are secured in stable, cash flowing Ohio and around the Midwest and South. SFHs are common. You are the lender, not the borrower. Get started at: GetRichEducation.com/Lending Unlike owning a rental property where a tenant pays you to live there… a private lender program means that someone pays you to “rent out” the use of your money, typically for a year or less. The operator, Dani Lynn Robison of Freedom Capital Investments in Springboro, Ohio, tells us how she has never lost an investor's money. They have always paid back the lenders' initial investment, plus interest, as agreed.

Buying a huge $5M apartment building is daunting to most people. We discuss how you get the money and experience for this. Investor vocabulary explained: Capital stack, General Partner, Limited Partner, Non-recourse loan, Acquisition fee. Owning a duplex is different from owning a 200-unit building. With the latter, you'll have private investors, an on-site manager, and perhaps Yelp reviews to manage. Advertising is different. Our guest, Michael Blank, emphasizes the importance of doing your first deal - big or small. Do it. That's when the real learning begins. Michael excels in teaching you how to find other investors to fund your big apartment deal. To start, merely educate others. Don't ask for money.

Will Rogers said, “Find out where the people are going and buy the land before they get there.” Florida in-migration has been a persistent trend since the late 1800s. Again, Florida led US in-migration between 2020 and 2021. I interview a Florida property provider that I have heard other developers comment about, saying: “I don't know how they deliver such low prices.” You don't have to pay agent markups. Buy direct. These are new-build SFRs up to four-plexes. Get the report and connect with the provider at: GetRichEducation.com/SunshineState These Build-To-Rent properties are in central Florida, including Palm Bay (halfway down the Atlantic coast), Ocala, The Villages (both nw of Orlando) and more. Growth of industry has been both varied and substantial: medical, technology, finance, international trade, agriculture, aerospace, and more than just tourism. Amazon, Space X, and Blue Origin all have a substantial presence. This is path of progress real estate investing. Recent sample property: New-build SFR, 3/2/2, 1,400 sf, concrete block construction, $225K sale price and $249K appraisal. (Appraisals don't always exceed sale price; that's a wider gap than usual.) Build-To-Rent advantages: everything is new, warranties, higher tenant retention, location, provider buys in bulk, built-in equity, lower insurance cost. These new-build properties are on both infill and contiguous lots on tracts of land. SFR communities often have amenities like pickleball courts, swimming pools, and gyms. Tenant demand is so high that this provider gets first & last month's rent for you in addition to security deposit. Get actionable.

One question that I'm asked is: “How do I actually buy an investment property?” I'm going to walk you through it all today, step-by-step. You know, even after I bought my first property, it would have been difficult to recite all the steps. This is partly due to the process's 30-60+ day duration. Though real estate has made more ordinary people wealthy than anything else, it is illiquid. [Watch the video version of this podcast here: https://youtu.be/9jH4_-Bwujs ] It takes more time to buy and sell real property. There's no brokerage "point-click-done" or Robinhood swipes here. This is both a good and bad thing. Because there are several steps involved, there is no panic selling in real estate. This illiquidity keeps real estate prices more stable than nearly any other asset class. This stability (via illiquidity) is one reason why real estate comprises the heart of so many wealthy peoples' portfolios. Real estate prices are a smooth, glassy lake compared to the raging sea storm of volatile gold, silver, cryptocurrency, oil, and stock markets. In under 28 minutes, I lay out every step that you must know for buying rental property. This masterclass-level instruction comes to you without paywalls or logins. I've made it public and free. It includes: Myriad mistakes to avoid Improving your credit report and score A clever way to show a higher income to underwriters Where I get my loans Market selection Property due diligence Making an offer Get an inspection (Always!) Appraisal Signing a Management Agreement Property Closing Own and collect rent (Cha-ching! Finally.)

I'm in Birmingham, Alabama for a real estate field trip today. Alabama is an investor-advantaged real estate market: low cost of living, some of the nation's lowest property taxes. Mindset: I tell a story on affording the time. One of the most prolific real estate authors, Ken McElroy, joins us. I ask him about what happened to his 2021 housing crash prediction. Ken & I discuss why there haven't been more evictions since the national eviction ban ended. We explain why don't believe this will be massively disruptive. It matters. But to me, evictions will be a diffuse condition, not a sudden one. Sadly, if a tenant owes their landlord tens of thousands of dollars, they'll rarely pay. Ken describes how he's actively buying big real estate deals in today's environment. Ken gives a new “mark my words” prediction today.

On this episode of the Passive Income Attorney podcast, Seth is joined by Damion Lupo as they talk about how we are stuck in an outdated, old way of thinking not only about retirement but life in general. The pit bosses of Wall Street do everything in their power to make you work nine-to-five until your retirement because that is their way to control you in line their pockets. Damion is tired of this dark and scare tactic to drum up fear and trepidation about anything outside of stocks, bonds, and mutual funds, so he came up with a unique tool – a fusion of financial literacy and a strategy called eQRP – to allow you to control your retirement money and get off the Wall Street rollercoaster. Enjoy! “Conventional wisdom is going to keep you enslaved and in shackles; you really have to think about that. If you're going along the mainstream with whatever you're doing, it's never going to set you free. ” HIGHLIGHTS: Here's a breakdown of what to expect in this episode: The fear of being eaten by polar bears and bankruptcy. Exposing the lack of financial education as a system meant to create employees. Shortcomings of the 401(k) system and how Wall Street is taking advantage of it. Having control over your money and assets with the eQRP. Diving deeper into the eQRP and why it is a better choice than other models. Advice on taking control and creating multiple streams of income through real estate. And so much more! ABOUT | DAMION LUPO: Damion Lupo's mission is simple: to free a million people from financial bondage. His unique tool is a fusion of financial literacy and a little-known strategy called the eQRP® that allows investors to control their retirement money and get off the wall street roller coaster. He's the Best-Selling Author of 12 books on personal finance, investment, and retirement planning. He hosts the Financial Underdogs podcast, has owned more than 50 companies, and is the founder of his own martial art, Yokido®. Damion is the Chief Honey Badger at the eQRP Co. and the lead architect of the eQRP® -- the Ferrari of 401(k)s®. The eQRP® is a unique and powerful system to put individuals in command of their own investments and breaking that money out of the Wall Street Jail. Damion is also a professional investor with decades of real-world experience that started with purchasing his first rental using a VISA card advance -- a move that snowballed into 150 rental houses in less than five years.
