1260: Fleeing High Taxes & The Happiness Prayer with Rabbi Evan Moffic
Jason Hartman kicks off this 10th episode discussing the furthering trend of people fleeing high tax places like California and New York to tax favorable places such as Florida. It's becoming a more and more common thing and states need to understand this before they run into even more fiscal difficulties. Then Jason goes off topic with client Rabbi Evan Moffic, author of The Happiness Prayer: Ancient Jewish Wisdom for the Best Way to Live Today.

1255: New Refinancing Rules & the Entitlement Society with Dr David Kelley, Part 2
Jason Hartman and Adam start off today's show discussing how rates have allowed more and more people to start refinancing their homes, but also how federal mandates are allowing them to pull less money from their homes.

They also discuss the current entitlement mentality in the United States and what dangers that presents. Key Takeaways: [3:05] Not surprisingly, the US and China make up the largest 2 economies in the world, but some of the others are surprising [7:49] Just because you have natural resources doesn't necessarily make your economy thrive [13:29] Misleading mortgage delinquency stats David Kelley Interview, Part 1 [17:12] What is the Atlas Society?
