Rich Dad Radio Show: In-Your-Face Advice on Investing, Personal Finance, & Starting a Business

In 1971, President Richard Nixon, without the approval of Congress, took the U.S. dollar off the gold standard and changed the rules of money—not just for the United States, but also for the world. Today’s guests discuss how this change allowed the United States to print almost unlimited amounts of money and create as much debt as it wanted. After 1971, savers became losers, debt became money, and the rich got richer.  Ken McElroy, Rich Dad Advisor on Real Estate, says, “We’re borrowing from banks at 3% or less, and inflation is way higher than we’re borrowing. So why wouldn’t you borrow other people’s money in the form of debt?” Rule #1 of the rich is for every $1 of asset you buy, you get a dollar deduction on your taxes. Tom Wheelwright, Rich Dad Advisor on Taxes, says, “The more assets you have, the fewer taxes you pay.” Hosts Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and guests Ken McElroy and Tom Wheelwright celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the day debt became money and savers became losers.

Record-low mortgage rates and shortage of inventory are keeping the US housing market strong. Prices have been surging month-over-month breaking new records, but today’s guest says that real estate might not be as expensive as you think.  When you compare real estate to other commodities using the HCI, although it may seem controversial, it is clear to see the opportunity is now.  Commodities, unlike dollars, have intrinsic value. They are meaningful regardless of any currency. By comparing real estate prices to gold, bitcoin, oil, rice, orange juice, shares of the S&P 500, copper, air travel, college tuition, sugar, cocoa, and many others going all the way back to 1970, we can get a more complete understanding of where the market is now.  Jason Hartman, the Founder, and CEO of The Hartman Media Company and creator of The Hartman Comparison Index says, “By using data combined into an index and compare that index to housing prices, we can mitigate risk and have a lot of upside potential by using that data.”  Hosts Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and Jason Hartman discuss how measuring real estate to other commodities using the Hartman Comparison Index is the best way to understand where the value of real estate has been, where it is now, and where it’s going in the future.  Website: www.jasonhartman.com Learn more about your ad choices.

In an inflationary monetary system—growth forever—on a finite planetary system it equals total destruction. To avoid a financial system collapse, today’s guest explains why the world needs assets such as bitcoin, “the only asset that cannot be manipulated."  Jeff Booth, the author of The Price of Tomorrow: Why Deflation is the Key to an Abundant Future says, “Bitcoin forces a deflationary system.” In a deflationary system, thanks to technology, prices fall, people have to work less, and ultimately, we can do more with less.  Host Robert Kiyosaki and guest Jeff Booth discuss how Bitcoin saves the planet by creating a deflationary system, providing the broadest based abundance, and is in harmony with the environment.   Learn more about your ad choices.

Today’s guest says there are important cycles converging and warns that the next ten years will be dark but there is hope.  Additionally, it seems the world is rejecting globalization and there is a technological revolution that is changing humanity, giving us decentralization.  Entrepreneur and investor, Mark Moss, says, “What we are seeing happen through every country in the world across every society, seem random to most, like a black swan event.

We have this enormous gap between the world's haves and have-nots because the have-not’s value money—they work for it, save it, cling to it, and lose it. There is a war happening against your wealth, and today’s episode is a warning to move your “money” into better money.  EB Tucker, the author of “Why Gold, Why Now?” says “The United States uses the dollar as a weapon around the world.”  Now, Federal Reserve officials identified the wide adoption of digital currencies and are putting together a long-term digital dollar, the FedCoin.  One main concern with the FedCoin is today, when the Fed and treasury create money it gets funneled to the big banks but with the creation of the FedCoin those big banks would disappear, and we’d be forced to bank directly with the Fed.  Hosts Robert and Kim Kiyosaki and guest EB Tucker discuss everything from gold, the FedCoin, and how there is a war against your wealth.

Jim Rogers, a financial commentator, and successful international investor says, “If you want to be rich you should study history.”  Unfortunately, the average investor doesn’t understand the fundamentals of the markets. They just buy because the market is going up…and everyone else is doing it.

Trillions of dollars of funny money are being created by the Fed, and for a lot of people, everything seems good. Unfortunately, the experience of today’s guest tells him otherwise.    Doug Casey is the author of “Crisis Investing” and a world-renowned speculator, libertarian, and philosopher who says, “I believe we’re well into what I call The Greater Depression. A lot of people believe we’re in a recovery now; I think, from a long-term point of view, that is total nonsense. We’re just in the eye of the hurricane and will soon be moving into the other side of the storm.”    Casey warns listeners that the U.S. government is acting the way the Argentine government has and fears that it will lead to a diminished standard of living and violence in the streets as thousands of Americans are under real financial pressure.    Host Robert Kiyosaki and guest Doug Casey discuss America’s economic outlook following the Fed’s printing spree over the last several years.    Read more from Doug Casey: www.internationalman.com Learn more about your ad choices.
