Real Money Talks

Dr. Dung Trinh is here again to talk about something that is on everybody's mind, the coronavirus or COVID-19 outbreak. Some of you may remember Dr. Trinh from previous shows where he talked about clinical studies on cannabis and his medical missionary non-profit and his work around the world and in Vietnam. Dr. Trinh is a physician in Orange County. He immigrated to the US as a child and has never stopped learning or giving back.  I’m happy to have him here today to answer questions about coronavirus or COVID -19 in this highly fluid situation. He shares what it actually is and what the main symptoms usually are. We also talk about theories about the spread, and he shares statistics from previous flu outbreaks which might be useful in trying to gauge the scale of this pandemic. We also talk about the stock market a bit. Everything is changing rapidly and all of the information we share is for educational purposes.  You can find Dr. Dung Trinh here: Ask Loral Show Notes: [01:33] Dr. Trinh is a physician in Orange County. He also has a nonprofit called TongueOut. He takes doctors, students, and volunteers around the world to do medical missionary type work.  [01:52] Last year, they were in Vietnam twice and Haiti, Peru, and Oaxaca Mexico. [02:11] He was supposed to be in Vietnam this month, but the coronavirus threw a wrench in his plans.  [03:16] SARs and MERs were both a coronavirus. So is the common cold. COVID-19 usually lives in wild animals like bats and rats. It must have mutated to live in human hosts.  [05:03] There is an 85% correlation between coronavirus DNA in humans and bats. The mutations are probably in that 15% difference that allows it to infect humans. [05:34] The theory is that it came from a wild animal market in Wuhan. That's why people believe that it came from that market and mutated from bats. [06:24] There is also a biological weapon theory from a research facility in Wuhan. These are all just theories, but there is a level 4 lab in Wuhan. [07:34] Symptoms are similar to the flu. They include fever, cough, and shortness of breath. The incubation period is from 2 days to 14 days. [08:42] You don't know you have coronavirus until you start having symptoms. This is why it's so hard to contain. [09:22] This is really hard to contain because of the 14-day incubation period. [09:53] Viral pneumonia can be caused by the coronavirus. [10:12] The flu virus has infected at least 30 something million Americans this year. Over a hundred thousand of those needed hospitalization. From that group there was up to 15 to 18 thousand deaths. People don't realize that the regular flu has killed that many people already. [12:11] There isn't a lot of sore throat with the coronavirus, but it's not black and white. [12:57] The death rate for the flu is one in 1,000. The death rate for coronavirus is much higher. [14:03] Older patients and patients with chronic health conditions are at the most risk. [15:17] It's spread by droplets from infected people and their hands.  [16:52] The scary part is that it's more contagious and spreading at a faster rate than the flu. [17:30] 80% affected only have a mild case and can be treated at home. [18:04] The big deal is that 20% will need hospitalization and 5% will need to be in ICU. Hospital bed shortages are an issue.  [20:41] The stock market is driven by fear. Dr. Trinh isn't optimistic for the short term if this breaks out in major cities.

[02:48] If you have a self-directed account you can make very smart decisions using a tool like iFlip.  [04:06] There are a variety of things you could do including looking at group real estate investments. [04:48] As a landlord, you can look at creative payments and how to restructure so your tenant will be able to stay. [07:15] Ask what you want and don't be paralyzed by fear. [09:25] Think about who would be a better steward of your 401k you or your employer. [10:00] If you work for a large corporation and have a 401k, there's really not anything you can do. The corporation or the plan decides where the money will go.  [10:19] Self-employed people have more say about their money and things like self-directed accounts.  [11:21] You can set up the accounts, so that they are ready when it's time to act.  [12:22] At the end of the day, ask what do you want and who you want to be?  [15:17] It's our job to help you think about what your options are.

You get a two-for-one on this episode. In the first half of the show, I am talking to a business owner and Idaho investor named Rod Myers. Rod is the CEO of Invest Idaho which is an EB-5 Regional Center. If you aren’t familiar with the EB-5 program, it’s a program that allows foreign nationals along with their spouses and unmarried children under 21 years old to obtain visas or green cards by investing in businesses in the US.  This is a government program that has requirements and regulations. These investments are accepted through EB-5 Regional Centers which have been approved by the USCIS. The for-profit enterprises that these foreign nationals invest in must create or retain a specified number of jobs. Rod breaks down the numbers and what a targeted employment area is. He also talks about legal and administrative fees. He shares the benefits of getting green card status for these families and how they might go about it.  Then I pick up the second half of the show with Tim. Tim is an Idaho investor, and he talks about how things are booming in Idaho and why someone would want to live or invest there. He also shares a little bit about the beauty of Idaho and some of his best investment opportunities.   You can find Rod or Tim here: Ask Loral BLITZ Your Wealth Plan! Call for your strategy session 775-588-9200 Show Notes: [01:08] Rod Myer knew some Idaho investors and ended up purchasing an EB-5 Regional Center from one of them.  [02:00] USCIS does background checks on people who are organizing regional centers. Then you find qualified projects to sell overseas and deliver for investors. [02:42] The EB-5 program has been around for several years. The real purpose behind it is to provide another option for foreign investors to come into the US and receive their green card. The green card is also good for any children under the age of 21. [03:08] The real purpose is the green card. In some cases it may be investment and the green card. [03:47] Rod and his team vet the project. Then they talk to brokers who work out overseas relationships. They have to be accredited investors with a net worth over $1,000,000. They also have to have an income of $200 to $300 thousand over the last couple of years. [04:28] The investor looks at the project PPM and then the investment is a $900,000 investment or a$1.8 million investment.  [04:50] To qualify for a TEA or targeted employment area, the project must be in an area where the unemployment rate is 150% of the national average. It's designed to help out areas that are struggling. [05:21] The way unemployment rates are running in the US the 1.8 million investment seems more likely. [07:02] Administrative fees can also range from $30,000 to $100,000. There are also legal fees between $15,000 and $30,000. [08:09] We are currently working on a geothermal project and starting an organic farm. [08:59] The investments are typically five to seven years. There is usually around a 1% return.  [10:00] Having a green card allows people to come to the US as often as they like, and their children can attend school here. It's also a gateway to permanent residency. [11:05] Every investor needs to create 10 full-time jobs. There is a calculation for this as part of the PPM. [13:39] Tim is here to talk about Idaho investments. Boise is the fastest growing city in the country. Idaho's the fastest growing state in the country. [13:46] People are coming from all over, and they have 36% growth. [14:04] It's crazy to be in a demand market like this. There are people staying in hotels and RVs waiting for houses to come on the market. [15:09] The big Exodus out of California is causing a lot of the growth in Idaho. A lot of businesses and industries are also coming into the state. [15:41] They are getting at least 70,000 new jobs a year not counting the upcoming Amazon business. [16:00] Median house prices are around $375,000. They have a huge green belt and parks that are really nice. Boise Downtown has a lot of culture. [16:35] There are also beautiful mountains, lakes, and rivers. It's a great place for beauty and quality of life. [17:08] They're working on some opportunity zone single family properties that would be good for EB-5 investors. As well as assisted care living investments. [17:36] EB-5 would be great with any of the projects that they are working on. Tim's favorite projects are the multi-family units they are working on right now. [18:37] They are also building a community for the 55 plus age group. This is a place where the residents can be a part of the community and be proud to live there.  Links and Resources: Invest Idaho Rod Myer on LinkedIn

She started to believe differently and make different decisions.  [04:27] Jennifer has always had a routine. She changed it after meeting Loral. She gets up at ten to six and makes her bed.

She talks with people about who they are and what they want. When they tell her what they want, she tells them she can help them get it. [22:04] Most people have ideas not deals. [22:55] Jennifer has a process for deals. She's good at finding fire not smoke. She wants business now.  There has to be something tangible there.

What do professional athletes do when they are done playing? Some become entrepreneurs, write books, or start a nonprofit organization or a training camp or clinic for youth or others. Some have the fame and fortune to do anything they want, but not all pro athletes leave their sport wealthy. Kandi Conda worked in PR, marketing, branding, and entrepreneurship when she noticed that many athletes had a gap when it came to playing pro sports and working afterwards. After owning a professional women’s basketball team and seeing the struggles some of the players had after they stopped playing, she knew she could help.  Kandi started Life After Sports where she helps athletes with branding, PR, getting that book written, or with whatever she can help them with as a consultant. She is particularly proud of the Life After Sports app which features game schedules, snippets from pro athletes called Behind the Ball, and connects former athletes and businesses. We talk about sports, business, helping athletes, making money, and her upcoming Workshop Series.  You can find Kandi here: Ask Loral BLITZ Your Wealth Plan! Call for your strategy session 775-588-9200 Show Notes: [02:14] In the 90s, Kandi did PR for a sports team. She has also written or ghostwritten 15 books. She also had a sports magazine called Super Fans. She was doing branding and PR for a women's basketball team. [03:02] She helped them with an opportunity to become Chicago's first pro women's basketball team. Kandi ended up purchasing the team.  [03:44] Kandi played soccer in the Air Force.  [03:51] After purchasing the team, they did their first press conference at Michael Jordan's Restaurant. [04:06] She owned the women's basketball team for about two-and-a-half years. [04:31] Later on she reached out to the players and discovered that they needed help with financial PR and branding. [05:01] She turned this into a business and helps former pro athletes and their relatives with writing books and branding.  [05:31] They even had an NBA Mom's Panel.  [05:52] They have an educational forum that features players and families. They help with camps and sell sponsorship. They have a unique business model.  [07:15] Kandi's ideal client is someone who has finished their sports career and knows what they want to do, but needs help getting there. [07:57] So many athletes have untapped talents and gifts. They don't all have to be financial planners or run a nonprofit camp or clinic.  [10:18] Kandi makes money depending on what she does. It can range to writing, full on marketing, or consulting.  [12:29] Kandi also has an app.  [14:07] The app has all of the sports League schedules.

You can find Bill here: Ask Loral Powerteam International BLITZ Your Wealth Plan! Call for your strategy session 775-588-9200 Show Notes: [01:20] Loral and Bill have known each other for at least 15 years.  [02:53] After Bill left school, he became a trader. Then he worked on doing turnarounds where he would just fix businesses.  [03:13] Fixing businesses was always like a game of chess. Did they have the right product, price, and team in place? [03:35] They have been creating events to help entrepreneurs take their ideas from concept to cash generating business.  [03:52] A leader needs to have a clear vision of where a business is going.  [04:10] There needs to be a mission and a process.  [04:31] Goals are really nothing more than a mile marker that moves you closer to the vision. [04:40] Without a great leader, the business will fail.  [05:07] You also have to make sure you have the money to sustain business and the ability to make sales and take credit cards. [07:40] For a business to really thrive, an entrepreneur needs to learn how to delegate, so that they can focus on what is most important. [08:12] Find mentors that have done it. If they haven't lived it, they don't know it. You need to be out in the field with people who build real businesses. [08:37] The real zone is where the entrepreneur wakes up early and goes to bed late. Work 100 hours a week, so that you don't have to work 40. [09:00] Have habits of learning. Hire a coach and transition from employee to entrepreneur.  [09:45] Systems win and people fail. Have a product that's priced to sell and priced for profit. Have a form of lead generation. Without qualified leads you don't have anyone to sell to. [10:24] Become a subject matter expert. You can have a book, website, social media presence, or podcast. Use a free special report for your lead generation special. [10:31] You can make free audio to create a special report to get people to opt in with pure education.  [11:24] Give away great content and let the buyer buy. [11:45] You can use Instagram to get real followers through IGTV. [12:02] You can use Linked Helper to go after executives on LinkedIn. [12:28] You need real qualified leads that go through a mobile optin. [13:00] You can edit video with InShot. Traffic will come when you serve customers. [13:49] Don't be afraid to spend money on good printed material. Also learn how to speak. [14:20] Success for entrepreneurs is being consistently persistent and not waiting for things to happen. [14:54] You also have to make sure that you ask for the sale. [16:08] Start with one tool at a time. Start with G Suite. You could use Design Pickle for graphic design. [17:02] If you're not real tech savvy, find someone on Upwork to help you. [18:45] Your assets can be used in multiple formats. [20:21] Choose the social media platform where your customers live and distribute to the rest. [21:36] Get a good business card and a good postcard and a good corporate brochure. Then follow through if the customer calls. [22:41] Within 4 hours of your potential customers opt-in, they should get a newsletter and an educational five minute video. [23:13] After a text opt-in, give them stuff for free. [24:09] The less you try to force the sale, the easier it becomes. [24:36] Follow up every 2 weeks indefinitely.  [24:53] You always have to be accountable and have daily ratios.  Links and Resources: Ask Loral Anchor Free Conference Call 99 Design Pixly IGTV Linked Helper InShot G Suite Design Pickle Upwork VeeScope

Friend and Big Table member Joey is here to share an investment opportunity that he is involved with. Coro is an app and a platform that is making global money transactions faster, easier and cheaper. Joey is joined by David from Coro to talk about the new platform. We have talked about opportunities in crypto and blockchain and how blockchain is the technology behind the crypto currencies. David highlights some of the limitations of blockchain and how Coro has overcome these limitations.  Bitcoin technology can be slow. The technology and the token are also connected. There is also a highly regulated environment that gets very complex when it comes to global transactions. Coro uses a faster more secure hashgraph consensus algorithm. Coro is also getting licensed in each country they are going to operate in, so they will be in compliance with all regulations. David shares his enthusiasm for this new platform and why it’s worth learning more about.  You can find Lindsay here: Ask Loral BLITZ Your Wealth Plan! Call for your strategy session 775-588-9200 Show Notes: [03:11] David is a professional investor.  [04:24] Crypto has been around for about a decade now. [05:02] David has a background in fintech.  [05:53] Bitcoin is designed with a limited supply. There's even digital mining. There are some things that mimic gold. There's a physical barrier to real gold. [06:54] There are now 40,000 other digital currencies. There is no limitation to creating other digital currencies. That's one flaw with cryptocurrency and the second one is speed. Digital transactions are slow. [07:56] Bitcoin is two pieces of technology melded together. One is Bitcoin which represents the network and the other one is the token itself. You can't use the network without employing the token. [10:08] Blockchain and crypto haven't evolved to a point where the potential can be realized. [11:17] The fourth challenge that Bitcoin faces is the highly regulated environment. [12:09] IBM and Linux created a blockchain system that doesn't require a token as part of it. You don't need a token to record money on a ledger. The ledger is the heart of the system. [13:03] Most distributed ledger technologies are blockchain-based. There is also Directed Acyclic Graph or DAG which is really fast.  [13:33] With DAG, there is no token necessary, it's super fast, and accurate.  [13:47] Coro is a global money transition platform committed to making cross border transactions cheaper, faster and more secure. They use the hashgraph consensus algorithm. [14:09] Coro is regulated in every country they operate in.  [14:52] They see an opportunity set in resolving a couple of the bottlenecks in financial transactions by being able to send money in real time and sending without limits.  [15:08] There are limitations to how much you can spend with mobile apps. [15:58] David believes the next financial problem is on the horizon. Gold is a stable currency. Coro also allows transactions with gold using the most modern technology.  [17:12] He thinks as financial instability increases that there will be a growing preference for consumers and commercial clients to transact in gold. [18:00] The advantage of crypto is the technology, but you have to understand it. [19:02] Money has to have three characteristics. One is value. It's a medium of exchange. There's a unit to count it. [21:47] Coro rolls out in the US next year. It allows people to send money with confidence and convenience.  [22:48] They also hope to introduce Coro to Venezuela. [23:17] The bottlenecks for financial inclusion are regulations. [23:40] Coro streamlines the compliance into the technology. [24:01] Coro will provide financial services to smartphone users. The soft launch happens next year. Visit AskLoral to get involved.   Links and Resources: Ask Loral

What ancient health practice has been gaining recent popularity? If you guessed fasting, you are correct. Lindsay McCue is one of my clients and a health, food, and fasting expert. On today’s show, Lindsay is here to talk about fasting, the different types of fasting, and the surprising health benefits. She shares how different forms of intermittent fasting can be used to begin the fasting process and jump start healing. We also talk about autophagy, water fasting, fast mimicking, and more.   Lindsay shares how giving our bodies a rest from food and digestion gives our bodies a chance to heal.
