Jason Hartman discusses the current state of the single family housing market with Ken McElroy. He explains there are three types of markets - linear, cyclical, and hybrid. Linear markets like Memphis and Indianapolis see slow, steady growth. Cyclical markets like LA and Miami experience volatile booms and busts. Hybrid fall in between. Despite rising rates, most of the country has seen modest home price declines, except some western markets. This is due to low inventory; there are only 500,000 homes listed compared to a normal 1.2 million. Demand has fallen 20% but supply remains very tight. Millennials are finally entering their prime home-buying years, further straining supply. Existing homeowners with sub-4% mortgages are unlikely to sell (the “lock-in effect”). Unemployment insurance can cover most mortgage payments, preventing distress. The ingredients for a housing crash are not present. Rents will likely rise as home prices soften. #realestate #housingmarket #singlefamilyhomes #residentialrealestate #realestateinvesting #realestatecrash #housingcrash #housinginventory #mortgagerates #interestrates #housingaffordability #millennialshomebuying #rentalmarket   Key Takeaways: 0:49 All real estate is local 2:55 3 Types of Markets 6:46 Interest rate hikes and appreciation values 8:35 Rents: where it is all headed 11:13 The Lock-in effect 12:33 2023 Housing inventory 15:39 Median mortgage payments 16:45 Unemployment insurance     Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Blending isn't the goal for stepfamilies; it suggests the family becomes one in a relational sense, which rarely occurs. Other cooking strategies that stepfamilies try, such as the instapot, food processor, or pressure cooker, don't work well either. Then what does? Listen to Ron Deal and Gayla Grace discuss how crockpot cooking is the key.

If you feel like Medusa's head, going a million directions at once trying to catch up in this back to school season, you're not alone! Muti-task the next 10 minutes with us to go from "my family's schedule is running me," to "I've got this!" Fitness Lifestyle for Busy People Podcast, brings you guest, Emily Akradi, to share practical lifestyle strategies you can put into play with your family right now to tame the chaos. Emily Akradi is a leading board member for the Lifetime Foundation, where she works to transform school lunches to fuel attention, health, and learning. Question #1: Family meal planning When everyone has their own schedules, sports, and commitments, how do you set the day up for nutrition success, versus grabbing coffee, power rings (aka donuts), fast food, or whatever is available? Answer: I personally love back to school because everyone is on more of a set schedule. We stay on top of the chaos with a meal calendar. I sat down with all three of my kids, and we collectively thought of what everyone wants for breakfast and dinner each day. For example, Mondays, we'll have steel cut oats with turkey bacon. The next day, we'll have scrambled eggs with sourdough toast. They have decided what the meal will be. That way, I'm not running around in the morning asking everyone what they want, because they all end up wanting something different. Question #2: Family activity time Even though the kids have their own sports, what are some ways the family can stay active together too? Answer:  It is so important to have physical activity as part of family activity. We will just go outside and race each other in sprints, play soccer, use the garage door for tennis . . .. We did a lot of biking this past summer. Everyone goes, and we go at the slowest person's pace so it's enjoyable for everyone. Even in the winter, we still go outside. We ice skate, ski, wrestle in the snow, have snowball fights . . .. I don't let the weather determine whether or not we go outside. We go outside regardless. Question #3:  Finding time for your own workouts As a role model of health and fitness, how do you juggle all of the family activity and still get your own workouts in? Answer: I do love to workout. It is so important for all of us, even if it is just a half hour a day where we do something physically active. I need to schedule it into my day. I plan ahead of time, whether it is going to a class, or getting outside over lunch and taking a walk. It is planned in my day, and I make sure I get it done. Question #4: Getting back on top of it when the schedule is out of control When life gets out of control and you just want to hit the snooze button, how do you get the healthy lifestyle back together again? Answer: That is when it is even more important to show up and get the workout in. It really helps with stress management. I take many supplements. At night, Neuro magnesium really calms you and helps you get a great night's sleep so you can feel recharged the next day. Question #5: New developments in school lunches What are some of the most interesting developments in your healthy school lunch mission? Answer: We started seven years ago. The Lifetime Foundation started with one school, and now we are up to 600 schools across the country. There is still so much to be done. When we partner with a school, they agree to take out seven harmful ingredients. At the end of the day, when we take out those ingredients, we are left with healthy food. Question #6: Ingredients that detract from learning Can I ask you for an example of a few of the ingredients that schools take out of lunches to enhance learning? Answer: The school eliminates high fructose corn syrup, artificial colors, and bleached flour. There are more, but we will focus on those. We found that those three ingredients really impact focus and learning ability. When you take those ingredients out, kids actually learn better. Question #7: Additional closing thoughts Any additional closing thoughts on how we can help kids and families stay on a healthy track in this busy transitional season? Answer: Education is key. It is so important that kids and parents educate themselves on what is healthy, and not get brainwashed by commercials or marketing to kids - like junk food at their eye level. Educate yourself and surround yourself with positive influence. Know that you can do it. As busy as you are, it is important to make the time to be healthy and physically active. Next steps Looking for positive influence to motivate your fitness and health? Follow Emily on Instagram or read more on Emily's blog.

The author of this book, David Hopkin, is Professor of European Social History at Hertford College, Oxford. He is also my brother. However, I'm not featuring him on New Books in Folklore because of some misguided sense of nepotism, but rather because although he is historian by training, he is a folklorist by vocation. This duality is amply evident in his book Voices of the People in Nineteenth-Century France (Cambridge University Press, 2017) in which he explicitly states that he is proselytizing for a folkloric turn within the discipline of history. As he explains in his introduction, this turn essentially makes two demands of historians. Firstly, I want them to consider oral literature such as tales and songs as appropriate sources for historical analysis; secondly I want to acquaint them with those aspects of post-war folklore scholarship that provide powerful methodologies for understanding popular culture. The bulk of the book is then given over to a series of case studies in which Hopkin practices what he preaches as he mines folklore collections for material which he then examines and interprets in order to shed light on the lives of ordinary people. The chapter titles indicate his chosen subjects: “Storytelling in a Maritime Community: Saint-Cast, 1879-1882,” “The Sailors Tale: Storytelling on Board the North Atlantic Fishing Fleet,” “Love Riddles and Family Strategies in the Dyemans of Lorraine,” “Storytelling and Family Dynamics in an Extended Household: The Briffaults of Montigny-aux-Amognes,” “Work Songs and Peasant Visions of the Social Order” and “The Visionary World of the Vallave Lacemaker.” His interpretations of the archival records offer ideas about how the folk were able to challenge authority figures from a position of safety, negotiate inequalities within their own families, maintain communal bonds despite often trying conditions, and achieve strategic marital alliances. More broadly, he shows how traditional oral forms stories, songs and riddles—provided viable mechanisms through which the poor were able to assert some degree of control over their own destinies. Rachel Hopkin is a UK born, US based folklorist and radio producer and is currently a PhD candidate at the Ohio State University.

The author of this book, David Hopkin, is Professor of European Social History at Hertford College, Oxford. He is also my brother. However, I’m not featuring him on New Books in Folklore because of some misguided sense of nepotism, but rather because although he is historian by training, he is a folklorist by vocation. This duality is amply evident in his book Voices of the People in Nineteenth-Century France (Cambridge University Press, 2017) in which he explicitly states that he is proselytizing for a folkloric turn within the discipline of history. As he explains in his introduction, this turn essentially makes two demands of historians. Firstly, I want them to consider oral literature such as tales and songs as appropriate sources for historical analysis; secondly I want to acquaint them with those aspects of post-war folklore scholarship that provide powerful methodologies for understanding popular culture. The bulk of the book is then given over to a series of case studies in which Hopkin practices what he preaches as he mines folklore collections for material which he then examines and interprets in order to shed light on the lives of ordinary people. The chapter titles indicate his chosen subjects: “Storytelling in a Maritime Community: Saint-Cast, 1879-1882,” “The Sailors Tale: Storytelling on Board the North Atlantic Fishing Fleet,” “Love Riddles and Family Strategies in the Dyemans of Lorraine,” “Storytelling and Family Dynamics in an Extended Household: The Briffaults of Montigny-aux-Amognes,” “Work Songs and Peasant Visions of the Social Order” and “The Visionary World of the Vallave Lacemaker.” His interpretations of the archival records offer ideas about how the folk were able to challenge authority figures from a position of safety, negotiate inequalities within their own families, maintain communal bonds despite often trying conditions, and achieve strategic marital alliances. More broadly, he shows how traditional oral forms stories, songs and riddles—provided viable mechanisms through which the poor were able to assert some degree of control over their own destinies.

Liudmila Kopecka presents her paper 'Children go first! Family strategies and educational migration' in Parallel session II(C) of the conference Examining Migration Dynamics: Networks and Beyond, 24-26 Sept 2013 Recent developments in migration studies have shown that is very important to pay attention to how migration decisions are taken collectively. Families and kin group play a significant role in the process of migration and influence individual’s behaviour. However, there have been only a few studies, which focus on family strategies and migration for educational purposes. This paper attempts to show what kind of role does family play in student migration from Russia to the Czech Republic and what kind of transnational strategies and migration projects do have parents, sending their children abroad. The field research for this article was conducted in a few cities in Russia and in Prague, in the Czech Republic, involving in-depth interviews with student migrants and their parents.
