The No. 1 investing goal of most Americans is retirement, and a key determinant of happiness in retirement is where you live. Which factors are most important, and where are the places that have those factors? Robert Brokamp and Matt Frankel discuss The Motley Fool's recent “Best Places to Retire” report.Also in this episode:-The S&P 500's single-digit decline so far this year masks wide dispersion of the returns of individual stocks and sectors, with many posting gains or losses exceeding 20%.-A recent study shows that portfolio returns right before retirement have an outsized influence on how much an investor can spend in retirement.-Geopolitical turmoil usually results in a flight to safety that drives down the yields on Treasuries, but the Iran war has had the opposite effect.-Gyms and spas now outnumber stores selling stuff, which is good news because people who are healthier tend to also be wealthier.Host: Robert BrokampGuest: Matt FrankelEngineer: Bart Shannon Disclosure: Advertisements are sponsored content and provided for informational purposes only.

In this episode of the Wise Investor Segment, host Matty A dives into a sleeping giant that is beginning to rear its ugly head in the economy. While most people are focused on mainstream economic indicators, a massive $1.7 to $1.8 trillion bubble has rapidly formed in the private credit market.What We Cover:The Private Credit Explosion: The injection of liquidity following the events of 2020 led to a massive boom in private credit , which consists of loans made by non-bank lenders.The Dominoes Falling: Major institutions like JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, and Blackstone are pumping the brakes, capping payouts, and halting fund redemptions.The Stagflation Threat: Geopolitical tensions in the Strait of Hormuz could cause oil shocks , which can keep inflation and interest rates elevated while defaults continue to rise.Real Estate Impacts: Cap rates are currently under pressure, margins are compressing , and refinancing windows are closing for commercial real estate and bridge loan borrowers.The Golden Opportunity: Investors who maintain liquidity and have dry powder will be well-positioned to capitalize on emerging distressed assets and motivated sellers.Episode Sponsored By:Discover Financial Millionaire Mindcast Shop: Buy the Rich Life Planner and Get the Wealth-Building Bundle for FREE!

Across Protocol wants to retire its token in exchange for equity. Is the DAO model structurally broken? Thank you to our sponsor! Adaptive Security With Across Protocol proposing to retire its ACX token in favor of equity, a long-simmering question in crypto governance is finally breaking into the open: do token holders actually have meaningful ownership, or just the illusion of it?  As the regulatory environment under the new U.S. administration shifts dramatically from the Gensler era, the structures that crypto teams were forced to build may now be working against the very communities they were meant to serve.  Ryan Yi, founder of Onchain Group, and Felipe Montealegre, co-founder and CIO of Theia, have studied these incentive structures closely, and what they have found is uncomfortable. From PumpFun's suppressed valuation to the perverse incentives baked into token buyouts, this conversation examines whether the DAO model was ever built to last, and what governance actually needs to look like if crypto is going to compete with global finance.

Pascal Wagner interviews Shane Pogue. He shares how investigative due diligence can reveal whether a sponsor is hiding debt, legal trouble, or even outright fraud, often hidden behind layers of LLCs and international jurisdiction. You'll discover how to identify red flags like inconsistent income, suspicious business structures, or undisclosed legal battles that can spell disaster and how you can practically get started, even with a modest investment. Shane breaks down the often-overlooked aspects of legal background searches, property risk analysis, and the power of aggregate data to predict potential failures before you wire the funds. Pascal Wagner's interview with Shane Pogue explores the critical role of investigative due diligence in uncovering hidden risks associated with sponsors. Pogue details how to detect issues such as undisclosed debt, legal complications, or outright fraud, which are frequently concealed through complex layers of LLCs and international jurisdictions.

Iran attacked critical liquefied natural gas and oil infrastructure in Saudi Arabia and Qatar, including a major source of gas for Europe. It was retaliating in response to Israeli strikes on a gas field that supplies a lot of Iran's domestic energy. This morning, we delve into what it means for the price of oil, precious metals, government bonds, and more. Plus, we learn how China's entry into the World Trade Organization impacted local U.S. banks.

Tomasz Nadrowski is the author of “Mineral War: China's Quest for Weapons of Mineral Destruction.” In this episode, host Bill Powers interviews Tomasz to understand the nature of this mineral war so that investors can discern the best profit opportunities. Nadrowski shares that China has quasi-monopolized and weaponized critical mineral supply chains, forcing the West to rebuild upstream-to-downstream value chains where geopolitics can matter as much as geology. He describes his mining and hedge fund background, his fund's focus on rare earths, battery materials, and specialty metals, and the need to assess offtake, processing capacity, and government policy. Tomasz argues effective policy requires three levers: upstream reference prices, protection via tariffs, and downstream incentives to adopt Western/allied materials instead of cheap Chinese supply; he criticizes cost-plus pricing while viewing the MP Materials deal as a market signal lowering capital costs. The discussion covers tungsten (China's ~82% control), top monopolies (heavy rare earths, gallium, flake graphite), gallium and germanium sourcing, China's Africa deal structure and debt effects, China's control of nickel via Indonesia, and trading/exit discipline amid high volatility. 00:00 Intro 00:20 Meet the Guest 00:52 Mining to Hedge Funds 02:32 Mineral War Thesis 03:45 How the Fund Invests 06:14 Government Grants Angle 08:09 Price Floors Debate 10:26 Tariffs and Incentives 12:21 Tungsten Spotlight 14:29 Why China Restricts Exports 17:18 China in Africa Playbook 19:51 Africa Debt Reckoning 21:49 What to Call This System 22:51 China Debt Dilemma 23:51 Critical Minerals Ranking 24:24 Why Gallium Matters 26:49 Germanium Supply and Stockpiles 28:36 US Policy Whiplash 30:23 Nickel Indonesia China Proxy 32:11 Competing with China Standards 35:05 Investing Exit Strategy Tomasz's book: https://www.amazon.com/Mineral-War-Chinas-Weapons-Destruction/dp/B0GHDYRLZK Tomasz's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nadrowski Tomasz's fund: https://www.amvestterraden.com/ Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 This was not a sponsored interview.

This week, Candice and Malessa sit down with Brian Burke, President and CEO of Praxis Capital and author of The Hands-Off Investor. After more than 30 years in real estate, Brian shares how he scaled from flipping single-family homes to managing over $500 million in multifamily assets, and why syndications became the key to growing while reducing day-to-day involvement. He breaks down what makes a deal trustworthy, how to evaluate sponsors, and the mindset required to invest through multiple market cycles. Plus, the hosts unpack a bold move shaking the commercial market: SL Green's $730 million office acquisition. Is this the signal that the office sector has bottomed out, or just an early bet on New York's recovery? They explore what renewed institutional confidence could mean for financing, pricing, and the future of commercial real estate.

Do you want the benefits of investing in real estate without the hassle of being a landlord? There's an investing strategy that could give you more passive income, access to much bigger deals, and diversification across multiple properties and markets: real estate syndications. Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! Today, we're talking all about syndications—how they work, how they make you money, and what goes on behind the scenes. You'll learn about the two main roles in a syndication deal—general partners (GPs) and limited partners (LPs)—and their responsibilities. We'll also show you exactly what you need to get started, whether you're the one finding and managing the property or simply coming on board as a passive investor! How does investing in a syndication deal compare to owning rental properties? We cover the pros and cons of this strategy, the biggest red flags to watch for when vetting operators (or “sponsors”), and the investing risks you must weigh before committing to any syndication deal. In This Episode We Cover How to earn more passive income through a real estate syndication Two ways to become an “accredited investor” (and get access to more deals!) The three biggest red flags to watch out for when vetting a syndication deal The main responsibilities of a general partner (or “sponsor”) The biggest advantage rental properties have over most syndication deals Serious risks to be aware of before investing your money in a syndication And So Much More!

In this solo episode of the Smart Real Estate Coach Podcast, I go straight into the trenches on a topic that frustrates most investors but fires me up: overpriced homes. Most investors run from them, argue with sellers, or waste time trying to prove them wrong. I want to show you why I love them, how to think about them differently, and how to turn them into real creative finance opportunities.     I break down why overpriced homes usually mean little competition, why motivation often reveals itself over time, and how to stop fighting with sellers over comps and instead move to their side of the table. I walk through the exact language we use to uncover motivation, how to position premium prices with premium terms, and why principal-only payments can make a "high" price completely workable. I also explain the one key question that tells you whether a seller is worth following up with or not.    If you want more subject-to deals, owner financing deals, and three-payday opportunities without chasing dead leads, this episode will help you see overpriced properties as one of the best niches in creative real estate.   Key Talking Points of the Episode   00:00 Introduction 01:26 A peek inside the In the Trenches Bootcamp 02:13 What most investors do wrong with overpriced homes 03:30 Why creative investors love overpriced homes 04:18 Stop sitting across the table from the seller 05:11 The key reframe: the market makes up the numbers 06:15 What happens in the conventional market 07:30 Why creative deals are the better path 09:10 Free discovery session with the Smart Real Estate Coach team 10:21 Sample scenarios: free and clear homes, sellers with mortgage and equity 11:03 Why longer terms can justify a premium price 12:11 The most important question in the whole script 13:20 How to decide your follow-up strategy 14:03 The Smart Real Estate Coach system in REI BlackBook 15:10 The one constant in real estate: market changes 16:20 Real 3 Payday potential and 6-figure deals 17:40 Subscribe, give feedback, and keep learning   Quotables   "The market makes up the numbers.

Private credit could be the next black swan and we're going to break it down for you. We also discuss the ongoing war and how geopolitical uncertainty is affecting financial markets, investor psychology, and economic conditions. Misinformation, AI-generated content, and media bias make it difficult to know what is actually happening amidst the "fog of war", which increases market uncertainty. Markets have reacted with volatility rather than a sharp crash, highlighting unexpected moves such as a stronger U.S. dollar, mixed performance across sectors, and spikes in oil prices that could fuel inflation. Risk management is of the upmost importance during uncertain periods and investors should reassess their theses, reduce exposure when necessary, and consider holding cash until clearer trends emerge. We also talk broader economic risks including rising credit balances, potential policy mistakes by central banks, and structural concerns in areas like private credit and financial sector exposure. We discuss...  The ongoing war has created uncertainty and a wide range of opinions about its political and economic implications. The S&P 500 has only modestly declined so far, suggesting markets have not fully priced in the potential risks. Traditional market expectations have been challenged, such as the U.S. dollar strengthening instead of weakening. Oil prices have spiked due to geopolitical tensions, raising concerns about inflation and broader economic impacts. Energy has been the strongest-performing sector while many other sectors have struggled. Risk management should come before return-seeking when uncertainty is high. Investors should not hesitate to move to cash when market conditions become unclear. Crowded trades in war-related assets like energy, defense, and gold could reverse if sentiment shifts. The potential for consumer stress is highlighted, including rising credit card balances and higher costs from energy prices. Rising mortgage rates are a factor that could freeze housing activity during the spring selling season. Geopolitical risk is increasingly being priced into markets after years of relative stability. The current environment may represent a shift away from the low-rate, liquidity-driven market regime of the past decade. Policy mistakes by governments or central banks could become a bigger risk than the war itself. There are potential risks in the private credit sector, particularly due to limited regulation and transparency. Private credit has replaced some traditional bank lending since the 2008 financial crisis. Redemption freezes in private credit funds could signal stress in the system. Patience, discipline, and careful portfolio management are essential during periods of geopolitical and economic uncertainty.   Today's Panelists: Kirk Chisholm | Innovative Wealth Douglas Heagren | Mergent College Advisors Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/moneytreepodcast Follow LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/money-tree-investing-podcast Follow on Twitter/X: https://x.com/MTIPodcast For more information, visit the full show notes at https://moneytreepodcast.com/the-next-black-swan-799

Balaji Srinivasan explains why America's political system is swinging further left and further right until it breaks apart entirely. In this conversation with Brandon Green, he lays out why Bitcoin serves as the fire alarm for a failing system and why your location matters more than your portfolio. Balaji shares his "liquidate, emigrate, accelerate" framework, and reveals why Latin America and El Salvador may be the smartest destinations for Bitcoiners.

In Episode 6.14, host David Mandell interviews Matthew Phillips, Managing Director at City Capital Advisors, to discuss the evolving landscape of healthcare mergers and acquisitions. With more than 25 years of legal and corporate finance advisory experience, Phillips shares insights into how physician-owned practices can navigate growth, capital raises, acquisitions, and potential sales in today's selective and risk-averse market environment. Phillips explains that while capital remains abundant in healthcare, buyers are far more disciplined than in past years. Investors are prioritizing operational rigor, compliance, predictable cash flow, and cultural alignment over aggressive growth projections. He emphasizes the importance of competitive deal processes, proper due diligence, and maintaining leverage on the physician side when exploring private equity partnerships. The conversation also introduces ExitMinded, Phillips' advisory platform designed to help practices prepare for a future transaction well before going to market. By conducting a buyer-lens, risk-based assessment, ExitMinded helps identify operational, structural, financial, and compliance gaps that could erode value. Whether physicians plan to sell or remain independent, this proactive preparation strengthens practice performance and preserves long-term optionality.

And yet many founders make decisions about their ventures based on excitement rather than evidence — committing all three without ever asking the question a smart investor would ask first: is this actually worth it?

In this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan welcomes Cullen Roche back to the show. Cullen is the founder of portfolio-management firm Discipline Funds. He is also the author of several books, his most recent one titled Your Perfect Portfolio.   Cullen kicks things off with his thoughts on market uncertainty due to the Middle East conflict. He believes that volatile oil prices (and other commodities) will have an impact on the market. Additionally, he says that the U.S.'s attacks could prompt an escalating confrontation with China – where the latter decides to invade Taiwan and seize control of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing (TSM), the world's largest semiconductor producer. And he expresses his desire to see a freer market unhindered by tariffs. (0:00)   Next, Cullen delves deep into AI and how it relates to his investing strategies. He states the risk that the technology poses with many companies and sectors pouring money into it. However, he doesn't see that outcome playing out. He then shares how AI has been beneficial for him and says that utilizing it in creative ways can help differentiate your business from the competition. And he gives his outlook on robotics and how that will impact jobs in the future. (20:33)   Finally, Cullen details his exchange-traded funds ("ETFs") and what their purposes are. He also shares the time horizons for the ETFs so investors can know how to plan their strategies over those periods. But Cullen does allow flexibility with his funds to ensure that they can evolve and shift to match the changes in the markets and decrease risk. And he compares the pros and cons of using equal-weighted indexes versus market-cap-weighted indexes. (40:00)

A new federal reporting rule could impact how real estate investors buy and transfer property. In this episode, Kathy Fettke sits down with asset protection attorney Clint Coons to break down the new FinCEN real estate reporting requirements that took effect March 1. The rule targets certain residential real estate transactions involving business entities and cash purchases, requiring detailed reporting to the U.S. Treasury. Clint explains which transactions are now reportable, what exemptions exist, and why many investors are reconsidering how they structure property ownership. He also discusses strategies investors are using to maintain privacy and asset protection, including the role of land trusts and LLCs. If you buy investment property, transfer property into an LLC, or purchase real estate with cash, this is an important update you won't want to miss.

Cash flow is what saves investors during downturns. On The Vinney And Beau Show, Vinney (Smile) Chopra and Beau Eckstein share one of the most important principles in investing: consistent cash flow. Beau Eckstein explains that markets will always fluctuate, but if you own assets that produce steady income, you gain the ability to ride out downturns and stay invested long term. Vinney Chopra reinforces this mindset with lessons from decades in real estate—showing why disciplined investors prioritize sustainable assets rather than speculation. In this clip you'll learn: • Why cash flow protects investors during market volatility • How long-term investing beats short-term speculation • Why consistency builds real wealth When your investments generate income, market swings become much easier to handle.

Most entrepreneurs approach investing completely differently than seasoned investors.   Entrepreneurs often think: "How do I make this work?"   Investors think: "How do I avoid losing money?"   In this episode of Franchise Secrets, Erik Van Horn sits down with lifestyle investor Justin Donald to break down the fundamental mindset differences between entrepreneurs and investors — and why understanding this difference can completely change how you invest.   They also discuss:   • The massive $75–$105 trillion wealth transfer happening right now • Why most investment deals you see are actually bad • How macro trends shape long-term investment opportunities • The difference between active income vs true passive income • Why the person behind the deal matters more than the deal itself • The biggest mistakes new investors make when starting out   If you're an entrepreneur, franchise owner, or business operator who wants to become a smarter investor, this conversation will change how you evaluate opportunities.   Listen and start building a life by design instead of a life by default.   Timestamps: 00:00 — Entrepreneurs vs Investors Mindset 02:04 — The Largest Wealth Transfer in History 02:58 — How to Spot Future Investment Opportunities 04:59 — Why Business Owners Must Watch Industry Life Cycles 05:49 — Why Macro Trends Beat Short-Term Market Noise 08:06 — The Investments That Made Justin Donald Millions 11:16 — The First Rule of Passive Investing: Get in the Game 12:05 — Why the Person Behind the Deal Matters Most 14:49 — The Critical Mindset Difference Between Entrepreneurs and Investors 23:20 — What True Passive Income Actually Looks Like   Connect with Erik Van Horn:

J Darrin Gross I'd like to ask you, Gino Barbaro, what is the BIGGEST RISK?   Gino Barbaro That is an excellent question. I can look at risk from my own perspective in my life as when I look at risk, what is the risk of not doing something? If I had been at the restaurant back in 2008 and I would have said, You know what? It's too risky. I've got a nice little small business. I'm hanging out. I'm doing okay, and that's what a lot of people out in society right now. They have a comfortable job. They're not looking around. They think that there's no risk involved in that. Whatever you do in this world, whether you're working for yourself or you're working for an employer, there is always risk involved. Choose risk accordingly. I had that picture in my mind of, you know, becoming getting into my 60s and being stuck in a kitchen doing something that I hated. What's more riskier than that? I mean, I don't care how much money I lose and doing whatever, but to me, that picture was scary as hell. There was a lot of risk involved in that, and I didn't want to live my life that way. Now, how do you mitigate the risk? I remember being in the laundry room with my wife. It was around 2012 and I looked at her, I smelled like garlic. I just come home from the restaurant, and I said, Julia, I can't take this anymore. I need to leave New York, and I need to get out of the restaurant business. And she looked at me, and in about three seconds she said, Okay. I was shocked that she actually said, okay, but I think she looked at the pain on my face. Now, the reason why I'm telling you this story is what I proceeded to do after was to try to minimize the risk. At that point, I was all in with real estate. I said to myself, If my wife is give me the grace, and is giving me the permission to get into this venture full time. I need to give it my all. I need to learn, and I need to dedicate time and become an expert in the craft of real estate. Forget about single family homes, forget about self storage, forget about Bitcoin. Focus on multifamily, and I proceeded over the next three to four years to really become an expert in investing in real estate, that's probably the best tip that I can give you on minimizing risk, is to become an expert in whatever you're getting yourself into before you put that first dollar into an investment exhaustive join mentorships groups, go out there and learn how to become an. Investor, read tons of books, see what other people have done as far as becoming experts in that specific area. To me, that was the best thing. When she said, Yes, I couldn't let her down. And I knew that, and it's funny, because she had confidence in me. She knew that I was going to work hard. So for me to know that I'm like, I can't let her down. I can't let my family down, so that's why I plowed in. I even ended up opening up the Jake and Gino community because I knew that was a way for me to start learning. I started a podcast because Darrin gross told me would be a great idea. I wrote a book. All of a sudden, I'm learning all of these things about real estate. That's probably one of the better ways to actually start mitigating the risks is by becoming an expert in what you're doing, ultimately, you're trying to avoid the downside risk. And then for us in the real estate space, we created that framework. And I work with frameworks, whether it's buy, right, manage, right, finance, right, whether it's the three pillars of real estate, whether it's a negotiation framework that we use, you have to really understand to limit that downside risk you're looking at it, and for us to limit the risk is to have more of a long term approach. If you're trying to do something with a short window and less time, there's more risk involved in something like that. But we know if we buy an asset, we buy it with good fundamentals, we buy it in a good market that's growing, if we are able to be able to cash flow, put good debt on that. That's going to limit my downside risk going forward. Now.   https://jakeandgino.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@barbaro-360  

March 17, 2026 - Chase provides a comprehensive overview of the current market conditions, focusing on key indicators such as oil prices, geopolitical tensions, and their implications for the global economy.

A significant shift in the AI and enterprise software landscape, primarily driven by Elon Musk's latest initiatives. A central focus is the unveiling of Macrohard (also known as Digital Optimus), a joint project between Tesla and xAI that aims to replace traditional human-driven software development with autonomous AI agents. These agents will leverage the AI4 hardware in Tesla vehicles to perform complex tasks, effectively turning parked cars into a distributed compute network.Beyond software, the texts highlight Tesla's aggressive expansion into the robotaxi market, with analyst Dan Ives predicting the company will eventually secure an 80% market share. Investors are increasingly viewing Tesla as an AI and robotics firm rather than a traditional automaker, especially as its Full Self-Driving technology matures. However, this rapid technological advancement faces significant hurdles, including legal liability concerns and increased regulatory oversight. The FTC, led by Lina Khan, has signaled its commitment to enforcing privacy laws and curbing the risks associated with training AI on sensitive personal data.

The economy is sending mixed signals, and for real estate investors, understanding what's driving the uncertainty is critical to making the right moves. In this update, we break down the latest market indicators — from February's job losses and a softening GDP, to oil prices surging past $100 a barrel due to the conflict in Iran. We also examine the private credit stress emerging at major institutions like BlackRock and Goldman, and what it could mean for the broader market. So, what does this mean for investors? With interest rates staying higher for longer and distressed assets beginning to surface, the market is creating selective opportunities for those with the right strategy and the discipline to act on them. The window for well-positioned investors isn't closing — it may just be opening. This video takes a closer look at why uncertainty doesn't have to mean inaction, and how a conservative, value-driven approach can turn today's market conditions into tomorrow's returns.
