Podcasts about Purchasing power

I sat down with Jeff Booth to explore why Bitcoin isn't just a better money – it's an entirely new system redefining the future of freedom, value, and global markets. On this episode of The Wolf Of All Streets, we unpack why “never sell” might be the most dangerous Bitcoin meme, how Bitcoin protects your wealth against collapsing fiat systems, and why self-custody is your real vote. If you care about financial sovereignty, this conversation will blow your mind. Jeff Booth: https://x.com/jeffbooth ►► JOIN THE FREE WOLF DEN NEWSLETTER, DELIVERED EVERY WEEKDAY!

Monero Talk typically focuses on fundamentals rather than technical analysis, but the current market conditions made it relevant to discuss price movements and broader market trends. Kevin presented detailed analysis of various markets, including the S&P 500, gold, Bitcoin, and Monero. He demonstrated how technical analysis can predict major market moves by showing historical examples, particularly with gold price predictions from 2019 that proved accurate. The discussion explored the relationship between different markets, with Kevin explaining how cryptocurrencies remain strongly correlated with stock markets despite occasional short-term divergences. He presented evidence suggesting a potential 'melt-up' scenario in the coming months, while also warning of longer-term risks.

Tom welcomes back Steve St. Angelo of the SRSrocco Report for a discussion on the record-high prices of gold and silver. St. Angelo suggests these levels for silver could be a new floor as they've historically returned to production costs following price spikes. The average cost of primary silver production is around $26 an ounce, taking taxes and developmental costs into account. St. Angelo stresses the importance of distinguishing investment demand from industrial demand when analyzing the silver market dynamics. A decade ago, there was a significant silver surplus due to decreased industrial demand which has since reversed with increased investment demand. Industrial demand is expected to consume all available supply, making additional investment demand potentially price-volatile. Steve explores the impact of energy scarcity and continued money printing on production costs, driving up gold and silver prices due to inflationary pressures. They discuss the possibility of a market correction offering the last chance to buy silver at present rates. Steve and Tom delve into the relationship between expanding money supply, debt, federal funds rate, and silver price. Looking towards the period leading up to 2025, a market correction is anticipated due to increasing unemployment and possible employment data revisions. Economic weakness could lead to reduced interest rates and more money printing, instigating inflation and purchasing power reduction. However, Commitment of Traders reports may not accurately reflect demand. The global silver mine supply and output have been declining since 2015, necessitating existing inventories to bridge the deficit. This imbalance could lead to a substantial correction when prices significantly surpass production costs. Concerns about marginal silver supply include transparent and non-transparent inventories, solar industry demand, and copper prices as indicators of industrial demand and potential recession. Steve discusses the shift from LBMA to ETF silver inventories. Pre-pandemic, there was significant physical buying leading to expanded ETF inventories. However, in 2022, overall LBMA inventories decreased due to Indian purchasing and ETF withdrawals. Finally, Steve discusses the merits of assets such as Bitcoin, gold, and silver. While some view Bitcoin as a digital counterpart to gold, Steve contends that saving in Bitcoin is not the same as saving in precious metals. This is due to Bitcoin mining causing considerable share dilution and due to the energy costs. Steve advocates understanding asset worth based on economic progress versus past activity, emphasizing energy's role in asset value, and preparing for future energy realities. Talking Points From This Episode Silver's new floor could be around average production cost ($26/oz). Industrial demand vs investment demand crucial in analyzing silver market dynamics. Economic instability, the energy cliff, inflation, and supply concerns may lead to significant price volatility.

Forget What You Thought You Knew About Investing!It's Purchasing Power, Not Principal Preservation, That's The Actual Key To Success! Behavioral Finance...Jonathan Blau, Founder and CEO of Fusion Family Wealth and his Team, stop clients from making the emotional mistakes that ultimately lead to running out of money when it's needed most (Watch more here)!Typical Investor Behavior1) Fight or Flight - Panic reactions leading to selling market bottoms, and euphoric reactions leading to chasing stocks at elevated prices.2) Emotion - Psychologically pain of loss is 2X worse than the thrill of gains, leading to holding losers and selling winners.How Do We Overcome Typical Investor Behavior?1) Learn real risks, aka the loss of purchasing power!2) Develop a goal-focused plan.3) Diversify - Avoid concentration of risk4) Buying good stock investments on saleThis discussion with Jonathan systematically convinced Do You Ever Wonder host Mike Haltman that his long-held beliefs about investing and portfolio structure were wrong.In other words, the traditional 60/40 stock/bond portfolio adjusted over time becoming even more bond-heavy as investors age, falls short of meeting most long-term financial goals.Why? Because the investor is going to lose what really matters...Purchasing Power!According to Jonathan, for an investor to maintain purchasing power over time, including throughout their retirement years, a portfolio should be close to 100% stocks.Although stocks are volatile and each year will at some point decline, (some years more than others i.e. the tech bubble, 9/11, 2008 Financial Crisis), regardless of the reason for those declines stock indexes have historically continued to move higher and beat the inflation rate by a significant amount.And, dividends have continued to grow.In other words, because stock prices increase over time despite short-term volatility and dividends continue to grow, an investor will preserve their purchasing power.But it's the volatility, despite being short-term in nature, where managing investor BEHAVIOR becomes key!First, Consider How Bonds Are The Nemesis Of Maintaining Purchasing PowerTraditional investing would include buying a bond, in this example a 30-year bond with a 5% coupon (use $1MM invested). Each year the investor will receive $50,000 and at the end of the 30 years get the $1MM back.But because that $1MM in principal has not grown, and the income generated has remained the same, inflation has seriously impacted Purchasing Power!This concept about bond avoidance and the inadequacy of the traditional bond/stock portfolio mix runs counter to most investors' emotional need to protect their principal.But sitting with Jonathan Blau and listening to his investing and portfolio structure thesis, Do You Ever Wonder host Mike Haltman became a believer! Because it made perfect sense!Investor Behavior Can Impede Investing Success!Although preserving purchasing power is absolutely critical, it runs into the powerful impediment of investor behavior and psychology that focuses on a desire to preserve principal.Why? Because of the ingrained desire of most investors to preserve principal despite the fact that it's destroying purchasing power.Jonathan and his Team stop clients from making the emotional mistakes that ultimately will lead to running out of money at the time that they need it most!Learn more at Fusion Family Wealth here https://www.fusionfamilywealth.com/

Welcome back to Blended!   Today, we're talking about purchasing, and about the power we have – as professionals and consumers – to help drive change.   Over the last decade, purchasing has evolved. Ecommerce, technology, globalization, social media, geopolitical disruption – purchasing has, arguably, changed forever. And of the biggest changes has been the mindset shift with which many people, and organizations, are purchasing.   As consumers, we no longer blindly buy from the top few biggest brands, without holding them to account. We want to understand their ethics and goals. We seek out small businesses, or actively look to support those operated by groups we feel an affinity with.   Equally, businesses are changing too, adapting to meet the needs of consumers, whilst also understanding that it makes good business sense for them too.   Our purchasing power has the potential to drive incredible change across the world. But how do we use our purchasing power the right way? What are the challenges and opportunities? And what can organizations and individuals do to drive intentional change?   Our panel of guests are going to be diving into all of these questions, and more, today.         IN THIS EPISODE:   [01.28] Introductions to our Blended panellists.   ·       Anwin – Founder of Wealthfluency   ·       Hillary – CEO and Co-Founder at Liminal Network ·       Dave – Founder of Whirlwind ·       Jennifer – Global Director, Impact Entrepreneurship and Social Procurement, Corporate Social Responsibility at SAP   [04.46] The group discuss what purchasing power means for brands and procurement teams; whether organizations and departments are actually set up to support internal teams' ability to drive change through purchasing; the challenges and opportunities; and how organizations can embrace more intentional purchasing. “SAP's Business Network helps to trade $5.3 trillion in annual commerce transactions. If we could help our customers shift a percentage of that to businesses that are re-investing their profit back into environmental and social opportunities and creating economic equity, we could create a transformation in sustainable economic development in a way that would never be possible through corporate philanthropy alone.” Jennifer   ·       Understanding value propositions ·       Communication ·       Making connections ·       Investing in ecosystems ·       Building a diverse vendor portfolio ·       How does the data support initiatives? ·       Organizations should be looking inwards, as well as outwards ·       Organizations should provide better support for suppliers/trading partners ·       Payment terms, policies, procedures and contracts ·       Understanding suppliers and their needs ·       Asking the right questions ·       Resources/mentorship/advice ·       Assume everything is negotiable! ·       Outdated systems ·       Lack of training ·       Leadership commitment ·       Making a public commitment ·       Domino effect of decisions ·       Understanding true cost   ·       Measuring correct metrics ·       Simplify qualifying metrics ·       ROI in areas other than finance, eg. Marketing and PR ·       Sharing suppliers ·       Greenwashing and pinkwashing ·       Separating fact from fiction ·       Certifications   “I love the synergies you can find across doing the right thing, and helping your business, and helping your customers – all at the same time.” Hillary “With the pandemic, a lot became visible that hadn't been before. And one thing that became even clearer to me is partnerships with suppliers.” Hillary  “Most organizations have the data, but it's not clean – so they can't even use it. There's a lot of junk in, junk out.” Anwin “At what level do you get leadership commitment to support those more impactful businesses?… There has to be an understanding to support products that may be slightly more expensive.” Dave   “We're seeing a huge opportunity to connect the data better… We're making great strides in things like carbon calculators and emissions, but we're not there from a social perspective. We know that there's benefit but we can't always track the data and benefit back for our business cases – yet!” Jennifer “Data is dispersed… it's not unified to tell the story. And finance leads a lot of decisions, so we focus more on the leading metrics, rather than the lagging metrics.” Anwin   [46.34] The group explore consumer spending: how consumers are ‘voting with their feet' and feeling more empowered with their purchasing choices; how we know if we're making the right decisions; and the impact we can make by getting informed and showing intent with our purchases. “People save somewhere south of 5%, so we're consuming with 95% of our income, or more. So that's an incredible amount of money… To me, purchasing power means voting for the world you want to see every time you make a purchase.” Dave ·       Money is power ·       Making conscious choices ·       Keeping money within communities ·       Making an impact by shopping local ·       Affordability ·       Supporting through ways other than dollars: o   Sharing on social media – vote with your clicks! o   Writing reviews ·       Intention and awareness ·       Avoid analysis paralysis! ·       There are no rights and wrongs – everyone is on a different journey   ·       Don't wait! Take small steps ·       Focus on what matters to you “When you're purchasing from under-represented business owners, you're changing the power dynamic in that community.” Dave   [01.06.22] The panel sum-up their thoughts from today's discussion.  “The best way you can make your purchasing decisions is to decide if there is something you care most about, and prioritize, focus on that.” Dave   RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED: You can connect with Anwin, Hillary, Dave and Jennifer over on LinkedIn.  

Goose is BACK! And he's not happy.  Why? Well, if you've ever felt like the financial system is rigged against you, you're not alone. And today we're lifting the lid on just how broken the system is, and more importantly, what you need to do.  You see, now, more than ever, it's simply impossible to save your way to wealth.  Imagine being able to save upwards of $60K a year and the properties in today's market are still running away from you. It's a crazy game where the rules keep changing, and the real problem? We're short on houses, and the money system is all out of whack! The way banks lend money without sufficient reserves is a ticking time bomb.  In this episode of the Dashdot Insider, Goose pulls no punches in venting his frustration at our debt-based monetary system and its impact on property investing.

Jeff highlights a strategic partnership with a major GPO outside the vacation rental industry, leveraging their buying power and expanding vendor partnerships.Jeff emphasizes the power of the community aspect in negotiating better deals.
