Chris Whalen, chairman of Whalen Global Advisors and author of The Institutional Risk Analyst blog, returns to The Julia La Roche Show for episode 247 to discuss tariffs, markets, and the economy. Sponsor: This episode is brought to you by Monetary Metals. https://monetary-metals.com/julia Chris Whalen explains why the tariff debate is largely a distraction - part of Trump's "shock and awe" strategy to force trading partners to negotiate fairer terms as America attempts to end the Bretton Woods system after 75 years. He sees credit deterioration emerging in auto loans and credit cards while warning about multi-family housing defaults, particularly in smaller urban properties where market indicators show values 50% below their last sale. Despite market fears, Whalen believes the bond market is already cutting rates regardless of Fed action, with the 10-year yield dropping to 3.94% due to strong demand for risk-free collateral and Treasury's efforts to reduce auction sizes. He predicts financial consolidation will continue, pointing to the mortgage industry shrinking to just five major lender/servicer groups, while suggesting investors should look for stock opportunities despite current volatility.Links: Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/rcwhalen Website: https://www.rcwhalen.com/ The Institutional Risk Analyst: https://www.theinstitutionalriskanalyst.com/ Inflated book (2nd edition): https://www.amazon.com/Inflated-Money-Debt-American-Dream/dp/139428571XStanley Middleman book: https://www.amazon.com/Seeing-Around-Corners-Achieving-Business/dp/B0D5PTSJVC/ 0:00 Introduction1:27 Tariffs 3:03 Market reaction assessment5:11 Investment strategy amid volatility7:40 Historical context of tariffs10:37 Main Street vs Wall Street priorities11:17 Impact and distribution of tariff costs13:30 Consumer credit and lending trends15:34 Multi-family housing defaults17:36 Real estate overbuilding concerns18:17 Consumer recession outlook20:46 Job market and recession dynamics22:57 Fed outlook and rate environment24:52 Balance sheet impact discussion26:56 Treasury market outlook29:36 Client questions about market positioning30:57 Closing remarks and contact information

Chris Whalen, chairman of Whalen Global Advisors and author of The Institutional Risk Analyst blog, returns to The Julia La Roche Show for episode 240 to discuss markets and the state of the economy. Sponsor: This episode is brought to you by Monetary Metals. https://monetary-metals.com/julia Whalen explains why market euphoria has faded under Trump's "shock and awe" strategy. Banks face a $3 trillion mortgage securities problem yielding under 3% against 3% funding costs. He notes the FDIC has stopped reporting troubled bank asset totals after 35 years, suggesting numerous insolvent institutions need resolution. Despite these issues, Whalen doesn't forecast a recession, seeing continued growth with isolated credit problems. In commercial real estate, he describes a "silent recession" where banks avoid taking properties, while for residential real estate he predicts price softening, then a rate-cut mini-boom before a major 2028 correction. Whalen also calls Fannie & Freddie stocks a "pump and dump" trade, states gold is "the only form of money that's not debt," and dismisses crypto as "nothing."Links: Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/rcwhalen Website: https://www.rcwhalen.com/ The Institutional Risk Analyst: https://www.theinstitutionalriskanalyst.com/ Inflated book (2nd edition): https://www.amazon.com/Inflated-Money-Debt-American-Dream/dp/139428571XStanley Middleman book: https://www.amazon.com/Seeing-Around-Corners-Achieving-Business/dp/B0D5PTSJVC/ 0:00 Intro and welcome back Chris Whalen 1:06 Big picture market overview and Trump policy impact 2:49 Stock market as political proxy and market conditions 4:46 Fed policy outlook and potential rate cuts 6:09 Banking sector challenges and mark-to-market issues 8:07 Silicon Valley Bank anniversary and bank issues 11:10 Economic assessment and credit conditions 13:52 Commercial real estate challenges 16:11 Discussion of tariffs and Trump's structural changes 20:13 Debt, government spending, and economic growth 22:18 Investment approach and AI skepticism 24:36 Gold vs cryptocurrency perspective 25:58 Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac 27:29 Housing market conditions and affordability 29:50 Closing thoughts and where to find his work
Rich people do not get wealthy because they are inherently more innovative or industrious than most. They profit from inflated pricing and wages denied the working class sanctioned by the tenets of capitalism.

Fistfights over a flat-screen TV, hours in a queue for cookware, arguments over air-fryers. Why is it that discounts and deals can turn a simple shopping trip into a rampage through a retail park? What is it that makes a bargain so irresistible? 为了平板电视而打架,为了购买炊具排几个小时的队,为了空气炸锅而争吵。为什么折扣和优惠可以将一次简单的购物之旅变成一场零售公园的横冲直撞?是什么让讨价还价如此难以抗拒? The answer might be in our heads. An fMRI study, where brain activity is measured, has shown that when we think about money we might spend, brain areas sensitive to pain are activated. When we think about the thing that we want to buy, areas sensitive to pleasure are triggered. Our medial prefrontal cortex evaluates these responses and makes a decision. If it looks like a good deal, we're more likely to make the purchase and get a hit of dopamine. Writer Mark Elwood, who has written a book all about bargains, tells us that we get even more dopamine from something that's unexpected, such as when something is surprisingly cheap. Our brains are keen to reward us for finding bargains and many shops are keen to take advantage of this. 答案可能就在我们的脑海里。一项测量大脑活动的功能磁共振成像研究表明,当我们想到可能花的钱时,对疼痛敏感的大脑区域就会被激活。当我们思考我们想买的东西时,对快乐敏感的区域就会被触发。我们的内侧前额叶皮层会评估这些反应并做出决定。如果看起来很划算,我们就更有可能购买并获得多巴胺的刺激。作家马克·埃尔伍德(Mark Elwood)写了一本关于讨价还价的书,他告诉我们,我们从意想不到的事情中获得更多的多巴胺,例如当某件事出奇便宜时。我们的大脑热衷于奖励我们找到便宜货,许多商店也热衷于利用这一点。 Anchoring is a pricing strategy where we are shown an initial price, and then the real one. Popular items may be positioned next to something much more expensive, or we may see a very high previous price, next to the heavily reduced one currently available. The initial price, or anchor, conditions how we evaluate what something actually costs. Inflated anchor prices can make unreasonably high actual prices seem fair, and our brains are happy to reward us when we make the purchase. Other strategies include time limits, threatening to deprive us of our dopamine hit if we're not quick enough, and charm pricing, where we're much less worried about paying £9.99 than £10. 锚定是一种定价策略,我们会看到初始价格,然后是真实价格。受欢迎的商品可能会被放置在更昂贵的商品旁边,或者我们可能会看到以前的价格非常高,而当前的商品大幅降价。初始价格或锚点决定了我们如何评估某物的实际成本。虚高的锚定价格会让不合理的高实际价格看起来很公平,当我们购买时,我们的大脑很乐意奖励我们。其他策略包括时间限制,如果我们速度不够快,就会威胁我们剥夺多巴胺的刺激,以及魅力定价,我们更不用担心支付 9.99 英镑,而是支付 10 英镑。 If we know this about how our brains work and how retailers might act, what should we do? It can be useful to take time to consider what we're buying, hold on to something and walk around the shop before buying to give ourselves more time to evaluate a potential purchase. It can also be sensible to research prices before shopping, to get a better idea of what represents good value. 如果我们了解我们的大脑如何工作以及零售商如何行动,我们应该做什么?在购买之前花点时间考虑一下我们要买的东西,抓住一些东西并在商店里走一圈,这样可以让自己有更多的时间来评估潜在的购买。在购物前研究价格也是明智之举,以便更好地了解什么东西代表物有所值。 词汇表cookware 炊具,厨房用具discount 折扣,减价deal 特惠retail park 零售商业区,购物区bargain 便宜货,低价好物irresistible 不可抗拒的,难以抵挡的medial prefrontal cortex (大脑)内侧前额叶皮层purchase 购买dopamine 多巴胺cheap 便宜的,廉价的anchoring (价格)锚定pricing strategy 定价策略price 价格expensive 昂贵的heavily reduced 大幅降价的dopamine hit 多巴胺刺激charm pricing 尾数定价(以零头尾数结尾)retailer 零售商evaluate 评估value 价值

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Today, we bring you a bonus episode of Welcome to What Matters Now, a weekly podcast exploring key issues currently shaping Israel and the Jewish World, with host deputy editor Amanda Borschel-Dan speaking with Andrew Fox. Fox, a research fellow at the Henry Jackson Society, served in the British Army from 2005 to 2021, completing three tours in Afghanistan, including one attached to the US Army Special Forces. At the transatlantic think tank, he specializes in Defense, the Middle East, and disinformation. He holds degrees in Law and Politics, Modern War Studies and Psychology. This week, Fox and a team of researchers published a report that made international headlines titled, "Questionable Counting: Analysing the Death Toll from the Hamas-Run Ministry of Health in Gaza." According to the report, the Palestinian death toll for the Gaza war appears to include thousands of people who died of natural causes as well as incorrect figures — partly in an effort to inflate the toll of women and children. Worse, international media outlets are too quick to accept the figures from terror group Hamas -- usually without the scrutiny and rigor that are applied when reporting numbers supplied by Israel. The Hamas-run Health Ministry's figures, the report claims, are being manipulated for propaganda needs. [caption id="attachment_3442530" align="alignright" width="300"] Andrew Fox, a research fellow at the Henry Jackson Society, on a research trip in the Gaza Strip, summer 2024. (courtesy)[/caption] The Gaza health ministry, under Hamas, “has systematically inflated the death toll by failing to distinguish between civilian and combatant deaths, over-reporting fatalities among women and children and even including individuals who died before the conflict began,” the report said. We discuss the report and hear Fox's assessment of how the IDF's operations in Gaza have played out, as well as the one arena Israel has neglected -- the fight for world opinion.

Elon Musk's company, xAI, filed a complaint against OpenAI for its recruitment practices, alleging that OpenAI excessively attracts talent with high salaries. Musk estimates OpenAI's workforce at about 1,500 employees, while other estimates suggest nearly 4,800. The complaint claims OpenAI's strategy limits competition by providing above-average compensation packages. Salary data from specialty visa applications indicates that OpenAI pays significantly more than the U.S. Department of Labor's average wages for various positions. According to an analysis, OpenAI's salaries range from $145,000 to $530,000, averaging 87% above prevailing wages. In contrast, xAI's salaries range from $250,000 to $500,000, which is 37% above average. OpenAI's highest-paying roles include positions in communications, data science, product staff, and technical staff, with significant percentage differences compared to prevailing wages.Learn more on this news visit us at: https://greyjournal.net/ Hosted on Acast.

This week's show is with Rod Boothroyd. Rod brings more than two decades' experience of working with men and women to his current work as a Healing The Shadow practitioner. Rod's career in the area of human potential started with his training in Transactional Analysis psychotherapy at the Manchester Institute for Psychotherapy in 1999. Since then he has taken further training in Integrative Psychotherapy, worked with the ManKind Project UK and Ireland (where he was a Primary Integration Training leader), and researched in depth the art of working with, and reintegrating, the human shadow. He is now working as a one-to-one coach and therapist, and is also a supervisor with Healing The Shadow, an organisation devoted to emotional healing and the development of human potential. In this episode, Lian and Rod delve into the concept of the 'sovereign within' and its transformative implications for leadership, personal growth, and soul awakening. They explore the essence of heart-centred leadership - including the importance of compassion and self-love, they share insights into the archetypes of inflated and deflated sovereigns - highlighting their manifestations in everyday life and the deeper insecurities they conceal, reflect on the pivotal role of purpose in anchoring a strong sense of self, and talk about the dynamics of childhood experiences and how these early influences sculpt our ability to and our path of embodying sovereignty. We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you'll learn from this episode: Heart-centred leadership begins with awareness and self-compassion - We need to see and nurture the inner child and the growing sovereign within. Recognising shadow archetypes deepens self-awareness - Inflated sovereigns, driven by insecurities, and deflated sovereigns, hindered by self-worth struggles, offer powerful insights into our behaviours and relationships. Purpose and self-love are the cornerstones of sovereignty - by embracing self-acceptance and aligning with purpose, we create a foundation for self-discovery and leadership that can transform not only our own lives but those around us.

In today's episode of Impact Theory, host Tom Bilyeu delves deep into the intricate world of modern relationships, societal expectations, and personal growth with guest Sadia Khan. Together, they explore the complexities of attraction and success, shedding light on how physical allure and ambition shape romantic dynamics. Sadia shares her preferences for driven, accomplished men, linking laziness to missed opportunities, while Tom reflects on his transformative journey motivated by his commitment to his wife, Lisa. Khan's perspective on pay disparities and societal norms, particularly in places like Dubai versus the UK, provides a thought-provoking angle on cultural and economic biases. The conversation takes a candid turn as they discuss the motivational power of admiration, the impact of materialism on relationships, and the unrealistic expectations fueled by social media. This episode also navigates the often contentious waters of sexual dynamics, examining the role of mutual attraction, the evolving landscape of hypergamy, and the pitfalls of transactional relationships. Both speakers emphasize the importance of self-improvement, setting boundaries, and finding partners who respect and value genuine connections over superficial traits.

Despite attempts to appeal these skyrocketing valuations, both Kilner and Boles reveal that the system appears heavily skewed in favor of municipal revenue generation, leaving many property owners with few options but costly litigation.

Hungary is a hot EU topic again. In the middle of its EU presidency, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán sparked heated debates in the European Parliament with his appearances in Strasbourg. An ongoing blocking of aid to Ukraine, attacks on Brussels or Hungary's contacts with Moscow do not leave EU politicians calm. „Whatever Russia wants, he is fine with that,“ says leading Hungarian investigative journalist Szabolcs Panyi in this special English edition of Brussels Bites podcast.

Parables // The Parable of the Elder Brother Luke 15:25-32 (NIV)““Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. ‘Your brother has come,' he replied, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.' “The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. But he answered his father, ‘Look! All these years I've been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!' “ ‘My son,' the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.' ”” Symptoms of “the elder brother syndrome”1. Projects judgment towards others and God. 2. Inflated view of their own righteousness. 3. Misunderstanding of God's grace. Matthew 20:8-15 (The Message)“'Call the workers and pay them their wages. Start with the last hired and go on to the first. Those hired at five o'clock came up and were each given a dollar.' When those who were hired first saw that, they assumed they would get far more. But they got the same, each of them one dollar. Taking the dollar, they groused angrily to the manager, ‘These last workers put in only one easy hour, and you just made them equal to us, who slaved all day under a scorching sun.' [sound like the older brother?] He replied to the one speaking for the rest, ‘Friend, I haven't been unfair. We agreed on the wage of a dollar, didn't we? So take it and go. I decided to give to the ones who came last the same as you. Can't I do what I want with my money? Are you going to get stingy because I am so generous?'” The loving father's message to the elder brother. 1. It's not your works I cherish, it's you. 2. All I have is yours. 3. I want you to enjoy my party.
Time now for our daily Tech and Business Report. Today, KCBS Radio's Holly Quan was joined by Bloomberg's Ilena Peng. Most of the coffee consumed worldwide comes from just two countries: Brazil and Vietnam. So when weather problems hit both at the same time, that can lead to supply issues, meaning you and I end up paying more for that morning cup of coffee. Well, that has some in the industry turning to other countries for their beans.

They do not change. They will never change. They do not grow. *You must accept this.* They do not stop their tactics because it works for them. Never engage with them. They are dead to you. They always come back for more attention, energy, validation (narcissistic supply). They will try to bait you, humiliate you, engage you in any way, to get access to your energy through a reaction. They are unsafe, destructive, harmful, and dangerous to your well-being. Narcissists engage in gaslighting, baiting, character assassinations, humiliation, attacks, hoovering, flying monkeys, lies, manipulation in multiple forms, extensive self-obsession, extreme drama, reversing the story, and one-sided narratives that only serve them in some capacity. The gold is found in YOUR growth, empowerment, detachment and strength. The gold is found in what you are powerfully ending for your own soul growth. The gold is found in what is evolving in your own astrology chart and personal planets. Please seek professional help and support if you are moving through any experience with narcissism.

Narcissism is defined as possessing 5 of 9 qualiies: Inflated self-esteem or a grandiose sense of self-importance or superiorityCraving admirationExploitative relationships (i.e., manipulation)Little to no empathyIdentity is easily disturbed (i.e., can't handle criticism)Lack of attachment and intimacyFeelings of depression or emptiness when not validatedA sense of entitlementCan feel like others are envious of them, or may envy others
In this episode of Trending in Education, Mike Palmer and his AI co-host Nancy explore whether generative AI in education has entered the peak of inflated expectations or even the trough of disillusionment on the Gartner Hype Cycle. We discuss the origins of the Hype Cycle and its relevance to current AI trends. Then we dive into recent developments, including the LAUSD's experience with an AI chatbot and Scarlett Johansson's battle with OpenAI over the rights to her voice.

I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. Home Prices Aren't Really Up! Brace yourself. A mic drop moment on real estate costs is coming. It's an unmasking - a reality check on property prices. Are homes actually still priced too LOW today? How could that POSSIBLY be true at all? On Get Rich Education. _____________ Welcome to GRE! From Belgrade, Serbia to Belleville, Illinois and across 188 nations worldwide. I'm Keith Weinhold and you're listening to Episode 501 of Get Rich Education. We'll get to “Are homes overpriced or underpriced today?” shortly. But understand this… I successfully acquired something at a young age. And you can too. That thing that I successfully got ahold of was not millions of dollars… because I came from average means. What I intentionally and successfully acquired was millions of dollars in debt. Yes, obtaining millions in debt from a young age… is what led to me quitting my day job while I was young enough to enjoy it. You, the longtime listener, COMPLETELY understand and appreciate what I just said. If you're a newer listener, that sounds unusual or even irresponsible. Well, come along for the ride. Also, a layperson - or a newer listener - would respond with, “No one talks that way, thinks that way, or does that.” - taking out millions in debt and calling THAT aspirational. But using that debt as leverage is how you ethically take funds from the big banks - take Chase Bank's money, take Bank of America's money, take Wells Fargo's money - learn how to use it, be a responsible steward of the funds, provide good housing for people and prosper. That means you get the return on both your down payment - and the entire amount that you borrowed from those banks. That all goes to you. And both your tenants and inflation pay the debt back - not you. Look, I know one person. I personally know a guy - Greg. Greg makes $80K a year from his day job. Good guy, married guy, one kid. And his NW increased by $2M just in the COVID run-up. He has a modest salary but his NW is up $2M just since 2020. First of all, do you think that any of Greg's co-workers experienced that effect? No, he's really going down my path. You soon get unrelatable to co-workers and even some of your peers. Well, what makes it possible for a good family guy - or anybody - to go from a middling salary to obtaining life-changing wealth? It takes leverage. He borrowed for bank loans. That way, he could acquire 5x as much property than if he paid all cash for his rental properties. That way, he had 5x as MANY properties… and properties all appreciate at the same rate regardless of how much equity you have in them. See, if he had paid all cash, he'd only have a $400K capital gain. Not bad, but $2M is life-changing. Thanks to leverage. Everyday people obtain life-changing wealth this way. It's so substantial… that it won't only affect Greg's life. If he continues on this way, it'll take care of his children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. And you know, maybe this is why, one of the most recurrent guests we've had here in the history of this GRE, Ken McElroy, he says: “The best investment in RE is the one that appreciates the most, not the one that cash flows the most.” That's Ken McElroy. And now you can see why he says that. Leveraged appreciation creates wealth the fastest. Cash flow is important and it CAN boost wealth but that happens more slowly. Principal paydown doesn't create it - it enhances it… and it's the same with tax benefits. Deferring your tax on a 1031 means that you can re-leverage a greater amount. Low interest rates also don't create wealth. In fact, I bought my first ever income property with a 6⅜% mortgage rate and my second income property with a 7⅝% rate - that second one had interest-only payments. But I borrowed the maximum amount that I could without OVERleveraging. Overleverage means losing control of the mortgage and operating expenses. The lesson here is… get the leverage. And… case in point. Here we go… Speaking of appreciation, the LATEST Case-Shiller Home Price Index figure came in. The US currently has… 6.4% YOY home price appreciation. Now, their index is only based on 20 cities but that gives you a pretty good idea. In fact, that is the fastest rate of increase since 2022. Now, if you've let equity build up in your properties to the point that they're half paid off, you had 2x leverage, meaning the 6.4% appreciation just gave you a 12.8% leveraged return on your skin in the game. And, of course, if you leveraged with a 20% down payment a year ago, that 6.4% means that you just got a 32% return. And as we know, these returns I just told you about are from one of just one of FIVE ways that you're expected to be paid simultaneously. But yeah, a 6.4% higher is merely a DOLLAR-DENOMINATED price. That's what that is. Why do I say that carefully? Well, there are a few reasons that home prices are 6.4% higher - inflation from dollar printing could be why, the value - not price - but some properties have a greater VALUE, distinctly separate from inflation. What's the distinction there - how does this happen? What's one difference between an INFLATED price and a greater value? Well, say that a local economy is hot because there are more high-paying jobs there now than there were last year - say an influx of medical jobs or AI jobs or chipmaking jobs. Well, even absent inflation, a property that now has PROXIMITY to better-paying jobs - that's now a property that's more desirable. Someone is more willing to PAY MORE FOR - and simply CAN pay more for. Again - that phenomenon is ABSENT inflation. What's another reason that home prices rise - and rose 6.4% YOY in this case? If better PHYSICAL AMENITIES are in new homes than there used to be - say bigger garages or new communities with pickleball courts, well, people are more willing to pay more for that. To review, there are three reasons that home prices go higher: inflation, appreciation from value creation - like how the same home is now located closer to more high-paying jobs, and thirdly, better built-in amenities. All three of those increase dollar-denominated price or value. They all increase the nominal price. Now, let's pivot into the fact that “Home Prices Aren't Really Up”. I've covered this a little before, but I'm going to go deeper today in giving you the most comprehensive look at home prices today - compared to the past - perhaps than you've ever had in your life. Some might say, “C'mon. How can this be? Homes cost, perhaps 40% more than they did just four years ago.” Well, I've got a mic… drop… moment… coming. - Home Prices Aren't Really Up. We need a good measuring stick to see what home prices are doing. So we've got to stop pricing homes in dollars for a minute. It's a poor long-term value measure. Ludicrous inflation means the dollar has lost over 25% of its value just since 2020, and 97% of its value since 1920. Let's use a commodity and money that has been valued for five millennia - and its physical properties have not changed one bit in allll that time, and its valued across continents and cultures - that's 50 centuries of value! That's gold. We'll get to a more modern measure soon. But first, gold is the best one. Now, I don't know who to credit, but for a while, there was an image floating around out there that GRE got ahold of. It showed that 10 kilos of gold would buy you an average home back in 1920… and also, that 10 kilos of gold would still buy you an average home today… total… mic… drop… moment. Wow! Is there any better evidence that home prices are NOT up - but higher prices reflect that the dollar is down? Actually, yes, there is a little better evidence. We ran the numbers here and learned that - it's even more astounding than that! You run how many dollars per ounce gold is worth, that 35ish ounces are in a kilo and you look at home prices then and now and we discovered that - it's even more of a jaw-dropper… … because in 1920 - which I'll just call a century ago - you could buy an average home for 8 kilos of gold and today, you can buy an average home for just 6 kilos of gold. So if you want to know how much home prices have changed in the last century, they are down 25%. They're 25% cheaper today in terms of gold - clearly a more stable value indicator than horrendously diluted dollars are. And also, GRE made a new image that shows this - 8 kilos for an average home a century ago, 6 today. I sent you that image in our newsletter about ten days ago and that image got shared a LOT of times. Your first reaction to this whole thing could be: "Wow! That's wild. The dollar really is sooo diluted." Alright. What about home prices in terms of a popular, nascent asset that only arrived fifteen years ago, bitcoin? 2016: Average home cost $288K, or 664 bitcoins. 2020: Average home cost $329K, or 45 bitcoins. 2024: Average home cost $435K, or 7 bitcoins. So, eight years ago, a home cost 664 bitcoins and today it costs 7. That means that home prices are down 25% in terms of gold in the last century. But they're down 99% in bitcoin over just the last 8 years. And the dropped mic keeps reverberating through the stadium. Today's homes are cheaper in gold and drastically cheaper in bitcoin. See, it takes real world resources and proof of work to create real estate, gold, and bitcoin. None of these things are required to produce a dollar - none of them. That's why its value is approaching zero. But let's go deeper. You need more answers - you are part of a really intelligent audience. Because you might be thinking: "Wait a second. Some other things have changed too." For real people - everyday people - aren't home prices actually more out of reach than this? That's because since 1920, home prices have risen faster than incomes. That puts them OUT OF REACH for more people. Something else has changed. A home's lot size is smaller today too - the land that comes with the property has a smaller area. Let's understand too - homes also use some cheaper materials today. For example, heavy, milled raw wood doors - the interior doors - of yesteryear have given way to molded particle board today. This is beginning to build the case - evidence - that homes SHOULD be cheaper than they are today. Let's keep going, because there's more to consider. Mortgage rates themselves - just rates in isolation - they don't put homes out of reach at all. The long-term average is 7.7%, per Freddie Mac, on the 30-year FRM. That average goes back to 1971, when they first began tracking them. Oppositely, you can make the case that U.S. homes should cost even more than they do today. In many advanced nations, homes are way more pricey. Even next door in Canada, they cost about 20% more than U.S. homes. Canadian salaries are lower than US salaries too - yet their home prices are markedly higher. On some levels, you're getting more "home" today in the US. A 1920 home would feel savagely uninhabitable to you if you tried to live in one now. Here's what I mean… In 1920: 1% of homes had electricity and full plumbing. Today: 99% of homes have electricity and full plumbing. What I mean then, by savagely uninhabitable, is enjoy walking to the outhouse in the middle of the night when it's 35 degrees. Then there's size: 1920: The average home had 242 sf per person. Today: The average home has 721 sf per person. Because today, family sizes are smaller and homes are way larger too. Today's amenities would be unthinkable in 1920—walk-in closets, roofs with R38 insulation, double-paned thermal windows, smart thermostats, voice-controlled lighting, quartz countertops, and Kitchen Aid appliances. Maybe even a security system. They're all things that homes have today. Gosh, even the fact that you have a garage - a HEATED garage even, finished basement, air conditioner and modern washer-dryer would leave 1920 homeowners dumbstruck with their mouth agape—maybe even flabbergasted. Those old folks from yesteryear wouldn't believe all that you get with a home today. Yet that 1920 home would have cost you more in gold, than today's more sizable homes with all their plush amenities. Now, when it comes to - though home prices aren't up, are they more “out of reach” for the average American?” Over the past five years, they ARE - because home prices have now risen faster than incomes over THAT stretch. But another BIG reason that homes are SUBSTANTIALLY more affordable today than they were in 1920 is… financing terms. Today, you can make a down payment for between 3% and 20% on a home. Do you know what loan terms were like in 1920? You had to make a 50% down payment and then had to pay off your mortgage in 5 years. Can you IMAGINE if that were the case today? How many people could put 50% down on a home today and then pay off the balance within 5 years. Virtually nobody. That's why homes are more within one's grasp today. Overall, you can see that there are a lot of countervailing factors here… tempering that it took 8 kilos of gold to buy a home a century ago, and it just takes 6 kilos today. The bottom line here is that, long-term, real home prices aren't up. Dollars are down because they've been printed like crazy. From today, nominal home prices could keep rising for years. Dustin on social had a funny comment about this - “How many baconators from Wendy's would it take to buy a home today?” Ha! I don't know. I guess that's a hamburger - I don't go to Wendy's. Maybe then, a home costs 60,000 baconators today. Coming up straight ahead - what will happen first - a $750K median-price home, $100K bitcoin, or $5K gold. Also, what's perhaps the biggest trend in real estate investing that not enough people are talking about - and how you can make money from it… and more… all next - I'm KW. You're listening to Get Rich Education. ______________ Welcome back, to Get Rich Education. I'm your host, Keith Weinhold. On our latest GRE Social Media Poll, we ran this question. What will happen first? The median home value hits $750K. Bitcoin hits a $100K price. Or… Gold hits $5K. I'll give you the result, but what do you think? Again, which one of these three things will happen first? The median home value hits $750K. Bitcoin to $100K. Or… Gold hits $5K. The results across both LI and IG were pretty similar - sometimes you get differences there, as LI is a more professional audience. One voter in the poll also commented - it's syndication attorney Mauricio Rauld, who we've had here on the show before. Mauricio said: I think assuming Bitcoin doesn't collapse, it probably makes a run to $100K in the next few years (who knows, could be next few months). But with the median home, at 10% a year, it would take 6 years to hit $750K so that is a decade away. That's his thought - sounds reasonable. The poll RESULT is: Bitcoin will hit $100K first. That was most likely, with 57% of you answering that. That makes sense since its volatile and close to striking distance. The median home value will hit $750K finished 2nd. 26% of you said that. And gold up to a $5K price got just 17% of the vote. That makes sense since gold prices would have to about double from here. You can always join along in the conversation and polls. We are really easy to find - because on virtually every social platform - Facebook, Instagram, LI, YouTube - we ARE: “Get Rich Education”. Over on the Get Rich Education YouTube Channel, I recently covered how the Fed is overseeing a “Tug of War” between inflation and a recession. They don't want the game to end. The Fed is trying to keep the game going. They don't want participants on either side falling into a pit in the middle of the Tug of War game between inflation and a recession. They don't want either side to win. If one side wins, the Fed loses. This “Tug of War” game is really a great way to understand how the Fed works, how they control your money, and what their motivations are. A video about that is on our YouTube channel - where you get the visual of the Tug of War game between inflation and a recession. That's just one example of how that content is often different from what you're hearing now. Get more… on our YouTube Channel… called “Get Rich Education”. The homeownership rate just fell again a little, quarter-over-quarter, increasing the number of renters and rental demand, which I expect will only continue. From CNBC, Realtor.com's Chief Economist Danielle Hale tells us more. Let's listen in. It's about why the housing market is pretty dire for young Americans, then I'll be right back with some key commentary on this. Yeah, there in Economist Danielle Hale's interview - if mortgage rates go higher, inventory pulls back and we tend to see modest HPA. Most agree that if mortgage rates go lower, we'll see RAPID HPA. She also just keeps exposing what we all know. “We need to build more housing”. A brand-new home constructed with a renter in mind, sold to an investor, is known as build-to-rent housing. You'll see it abbreviated BTR. It's usually single-family. Some abbreviate it B2R. These must be the same people that say H2O instead of water. It's become massively popular. Despite an overall housing shortage, last year, a record 27,495 BTR homes were completed. That's up 75% from the prior year and up an astounding 307% since pre-pandemic deliveries back in 2019. So what's driving the build-to-rent trend? Locked into low mortgage rates, existing homeowners won't sell. So, instead, new inventory must be constructed. More overall housing demand than supply. Wannabe first-time homebuyers cannot afford homes today. Renting a BTR is next best. National BTR occupancy is over 96%. BTR operates similarly to apartment buildings under property management, yet offer a single-family living experience. Some of these communities have: leasing offices, pools, and fitness centers. The homes themselves often have: luxurious modern finishes, garages, and fenced backyards. What's in it for investors? How do you make money with BTRs? 5% mortgage rates* (I'll get back to that in a minute) A long-term ownership focus, generating revenue over time rather than immediately Tenants have a house-like feel. Expect 3+ years avg. tenancy duration. Mgmt. fees are low because all houses are the same and all in the same area too BTR purchase prices are HIGHER than resale property. You will pay more. Expect better appreciation than resale property The rent range is often $1,500 to $3,500 You can expect low maintenance. It's new. Builder home warranty So there are a ton of factors that give build-to-rent investor appeal. Really, 5% mortgage rates? Yes. Here at GRE, we can introduce you to some BTR homebuilders that will buy down your rate for you. One is lowering it to 4.75%. I encourage you to get that incentive now, because when mortgage rates fall substantially, I don't expect these national and regional homebuilders to keep giving you the rate buydown. Sorry J-Pow. This kinda makes your next Fed rate decision… seem pretty irrelevant. It's a great rental model to pursue and an amazing time to do it with the rate buydowns. I wish BTR would have existed when I began as an investor. You really didn't start hearing about BTR at all until about ten years ago. Now, I appear as a guest on other business and investing shows. Quite a few times, the host asks me where the REI opp is today. The answer that I've been giving is that it's with build-to-rent properties and these rate buydowns. An income-producing asset is like your employee that's working for you—but without the personality problems. The property is also working for you 24/7. Besides just helping you find the best BTR deals today, we can help set up an entire real estate investment portfolio plan for you. -We can help build an income-producing RE portfolio for you with our free coaching. Truly free. Now, if you're new here, you might think that we're trying to sell you something - and we aren't. The way it works elsewhere is that some people get attracted to the free thing and then once you're on the phone or Zoom or free live, in-person event, they're going to try to sell you their better PAID coaching or some online course for a fee. We don't even sell coaching or sell a course. This is free no-strings, no upsell, no catch coaching. OK, it's sort of the opposite of your auto dealer calling you about your extended warranty - an overpriced item that you don't want. Ha! If you want to buy something from GRE, you can't because we don't even have anything to sell you. We are here to help! Also, I have no problem with companies selling paid courses or paid coaching - not at all. Some courses are worth paying for. It's just not what we do or have EVER done here. But see, buying real estate that you own directly is still not as simple as just finding a keyboard and pressing: Ctrl, alt, Deal. So that's why our Investment Coaches help you learn your goals, and navigate the process. Then you'll want to keep in touch with your coach because the best deals are often changing. For example, you might think that you want to buy income property in, just say, Alabama, because its prices haven't run up as much as they have in Florida. But we keep regular lines of communication open with build-to-rent homebuilders nationwide… and say there's a new community, in, Florida, where the real deals are going to be for the next few months… …and though you still like Alabama, you like how Florida is growing faster so you end up going there. Or there's better cash flow with some BRRRR strategy properties in say, Ohio, that we have that your coach informs you about. So, I encourage you. Get & maintain a line of communication with your GRE Investment Coach. To review what you learned today: Leverage is THE most powerful wealth creator. You can make the case that homes are NOT overpriced today. Home prices aren't up; the dollar is down. No one knows the future. But there is ample room for more home price growth. Build-to-Rent property keeps increasing in popularity… and investors can get mortgage rates on them as low as about 5%. To contact an investment coach, it's free, start at GREmarketplace.com.
