Tyler Sheff’s podcast took off when he found his inner voice. An introvert by nature, podcasting allowed him to connect with large numbers of people and break out of his shell. Following his passion for real estate and his desire to get potential investors accurate and actionable information, he conceived of the CashFlowGuys Podcast. In a little more than a year, he’s gotten over 200,000 downloads. It’s helped him get clients and he’s helped change people’s lives. By far, it’s the most satisfying career he’s ever engaged in. While there’s many real estate podcasts, Tyler prides himself on cutting through the hype and getting the real story out there. At this point in his life, there’s nothing he’d rather be doing, for which we applaud him.

Our prayers go out to all you FSN community members in Texas suffering the effects of Hurricane Harvey. Be safe and be smart.

Talked with Andy Hoffman, he’s still going to be around and promises you’ll be the first to know.

All this talk of removing confederate monuments is contrived manufactured controversy from the Left. They stand for nothing but divisiveness and preying upon dissatisfaction. This will prove to be a world class blunder on their part.

Speaking of which, the GOPe or Establishment is blundering in their Trumpian Opposition. It’s backfiring on them now as at least four GOPe senators are facing serious primary challenges from the pro-Trump forces. It’s getting very interesting!

Bill Tatro recognizes that from Trump, the candidate, to Trump, the President, there’s a world of difference. What does the word WIN means, for us, in Afghanistan, after 16 years? And, Trump (the President) takes credit for the record Dow, the GDP, the unemployment rate and draining the swamp (to be replaced with Generals and Goldman Sachs Alumni). Trump (the candidate) would be appalled and would call it the actions of “crooked Hillary”.

Sam McElroy returns… As talks get underway for renegotiating NAFTA it now seems as though much of the rhetoric form the campaign has gone away and more modest changes are being looked at. Rather than getting rid of NAFTA all together, which would have major widespread implications, things being discussed should include tougher enforcement on regulations in Mexico and bringing new technology into the conversation that didn’t exist or was just emerging when NAFTA was created. I think this will be an important negotiation to watch. Many believed that this administration would be able to spur the U.S. economy, through dealing that should be “pro-business,” though there hasn’t been much actual development towards the improvement of businesses, however, this could be an opportunity to start making tangible steps towards that goal.

David Morgan‘s weekly perspective for August 20th, 2017…

Deep sub-prime auto loans are starting to go critical. Newcomers are getting hit. Used car prices are crashing. People are buying newer more recent lower mileage used cars. This sector’s problems will portend bigger problems for the economy. High yield, junk bonds are going down. Credit default swaps prices are going higher. Beware of counter-party risks. Department store sales are also declining steeply. US stock buybacks are plunging, stocks still going higher, but for how long? Risk is getting higher and higher. It doesn’t happen all at once, but eventually it will happen. It might be getting old, but the system is in trouble. Will equities start coming down and watch precious metals have their day? Soon to find out. Good time to be a miner, sooner rather than later. Solar power demand will outstrip demand for silver if it continues growing at the present rate. Even if solar panels increase by 400 percent! Solar panel waste will become a major concern in the next decade as today’s panels wear out. Solar panels aren’t an efficient way to generate electricity. All that’s green does not glitter. Digitization of all assets by the Chinese under way.

As it becomes more mature growth of the US podcasting industry is slowing, however in the rest of the world it’s just beginning to take hold. Giorgio Minguzzi started his Italian digital marketing podcast nearly 2 years ago. While the equipment was easy to come by, except for his Heil PR-40, the expertise required to produce a great show wasn’t. Especially in his native Italian Language. Giorgio spent nearly a month discovering the intricacies of the good old Mix-Minus. If only he had found Cliff Ravenscraft, his problems would have been solved. But Giorgio has learned the intricacies through the School of Hard Knocks approach and it’s paying off. There’s very little competition in the Italian Marketplace. He’s already doing monthly 5 figures in downloads from his weekly show. Of course he’s avidly consuming my book Viral Podcasting in his quest to become a profitable podcaster and just landed his first sponsor. Keep up the great work Giorgio!

There are companies coming out that will take on the entrenched media/internet companies and will succeed. It’s just a matter of time. Faster than you could topple a Robert E. Lee statue.

David Horowitz thinks that the tragedy in Charlottesville could have been an occasion to stop and consider how the tolerance for politically correct violence and politically correct hatred is leading the nation towards civil war. Instead the media and the political left have turned this incident into the biggest fake news story of the summer, transforming its real lessons into a morality play that justifies war against the political right, and against white people generally.

The organizers of the “Unite the Right” demonstration in Charlottesville were repellent racists. But they came to defend a historic monument honoring a complex man and cause, and not to attack it or presumably anyone else. They applied for a permit and were denied. They re-applied successfully in a petition supported by the local ACLU. If they had come to precipitate violence, why would they have gone to the tedious trouble of applying for a permit? Who knows what – if anything – would have happened if that had been the end of the story and no one had showed up to oppose them.

What “Unite the Right” actually demonstrated was that the assortment of neo-Nazis, pro-Confederates and assorted yahoos gathered under the banner of the “Alt-Right” is actually a negligible group. This was a national show of strength that in reality attracted all of 500 people. Compare that to the tens of the thousands who can readily be marshalled by two violent groups of the left – Black Lives Matter and Antifa – and you get an idea of how marginal “white supremacists” are to America’s political and cultural life.

Dr. John Huber joined us for a discussion of so-called hate groups and the recent riot at Charlottesville, VA. Taking down monuments isn’t going to end hate. Symbols of the old South have become a flashpoint for numerous groups on the left. Where is it going to end? Neo-Nazis and the KKK are fringe groups at best and have no voice in contemporary America. They are truly marginal.

John Rubino joined us today. His take is that as the middle class disappears so does the middle point in our political debate, thereby leaving just the extremes. Obviously not a good thing. But attempting to wipeout or forget about our history is not the way to solve our problems. Rather history has proven to be the best teacher and an angry task master. Get ready for those who would attempt to rewrite or obliterate it. COT – Commitment of traders report has turned very bearish towards precious metals. This measure has worked continually over the past 10 years and shows no signs of quitting now. Will it be a down quarter for precious metals?

Mike Gazzola been to China 5 times. While he doesn’t know everything about product sourcing in China (nobody does) he feels that he’s getting closer to mastery. The wholesale market we visited has gotten even bigger with 1.7 million products and 55,000 stalls. You get to see the products up close and personal and many vendors will even let you purchase samples. You find products at the market and then go back to the hotel where Mike and Matt help you analyze the products to determine the likelihood of profitability.

Lew Weiss returns… We’ve been hearing about the Opioid Epidemic for a quite a while now. Overdoses, deaths and the impact upon families and the communities has been profound. But overlooked is the impact of this drug epidemic on the factory floor. Large numbers of applicants routinely fail drug tests and cannot be allowed to work with heavy and potentially dangerous equipment. Safety is key. Just like you wouldn’t want a stoned pilot, a stoned doctor, a stoned air traffic controller, you don’t want a crane operator under the influence either. Thus the need for drug testing in many industries. The problem needs to be dealt with now.

Jordan Goodman returns… What’s going on with the economy and the stock market? Jordan believes that tax reform, Obamacare repeal and other Trump initiatives are dead in the water. There’s very little that can be done besides regulatory reform. Auto delinquencies are rapidly increasing, the student loan bubble is getting ready to burst and we’re getting close to the government’s debt ceiling. Not a recipe for increased confidence and prosperity.

Doing interviews in a live setting can be a lot of fun or a nightmare. The first time I ever did a live interview was in a grand ballroom with 5000 present. I didn’t have time to prepare interview questions or do proper preparation. I was truly on my own. Somehow the adrenaline kicked and the questions started spewing from my lips. The interviewees seem to respond well and I began to relax. Later when I played back the interviews they sounded pretty good. The crowd noise in the background really added a sense of reality to the interview. It was an epiphany. I finally understood what the report on the street went through. It was a real growth experience. Next time you have the opportunity, try it. It will help you grow. You’ll have to think on your feet and you’ll have to make the interview pace flow. Flow is everything! Your rhythm and temp will help determine whether your interview is interesting and exciting or boring and humdrum. It’s your decision, reach for greatness through a live interview. It will change you. It’s all in my book. Order it on Amazon here.

Danielle Park returns… The sharing economy has not been born solely out of efficiency, it’s also largely a matter of necessity. Declining incomes and profits make it a major money saver for the shrinking middle class. Whether it’s AirBNB for travel, Uber to get where you’re going or Citibikes to use a bicycle in the City, it just makes so much sense. And we haven’t seen anything yet. It’s going to really take off soon once self-driving cars really hit the market.

Jeff Ferry is Research Director at the Coalition for a Prosperous America. New trade figures from the Department of Commerce show the U.S. international trade picture continues to deteriorate. The U.S. trade deficit in June hit $43.6 billion, almost the same as the June level last year of $43.8 billion. But for the first half of this year, at $276.6 billion, the trade deficit is 10.7% worse than the year-ago figure. We are now on track for an annual trade deficit this year of some $550 billion, which would be the highest deficit since 2008. That’s some 2.8% of our GDP, a substantial contractionary force in the economy. If that spending were going towards U.S. goods and services instead of foreign goods and services, it would create more revenue, more jobs, more profit, and more investment inside the U.S. instead of overseas.

Titus Gebel is an entrepreneur who’s attempting to further the concept of Free Private Cities, an idea who’s time has come. Rather than your rights springing forth from a government edict or constitution, they are derived from a contract with the profit making free private city. Your duties are clearly spelled out as are their’s. If you don’t like the place, you can leave. It would be a libertarian haven for all. It’s time to try another system for human beings to peaceably and productively live and interact together. This seems better than most. In places where parts of the concept have been adapted, success has been the rule. Imagine the Free Private City of Detroit.

David Morgan‘s weekly perspective for August 12th, 2017…

What’s keeping the Italian Government’s debt from blowing up. Banks have been dumping the debt, nearly 20 percent recently. Who will be the buyer of last resort when the US’s debt starts unraveling. David believes it’s a precursor to what’s actually happening. When debt goes everything else will too. The Pentagon stated that it’s ready to attack North Korea on a moment’s notice if need be. All wars are bankers’ wars. Is the another WMD situation. Looks like we’re marching towards a pre-emptive strike sooner or later. Talk of war is good for business, especially the defense industry. Crypto-currencies are being pre-empted by the powers that be. Fear and loathing in Crypto-Land. Cryptos are all the rage. There’s a lot of scams out there and there’s a lot of money being made. Gold and silver were well up for the week. Largest hedge funds are bullish on pm’s due to the current geo-pol situation and the stock market appears to be toppy. Silver has been outperforming gold. That’s a very reliable indicator. We’ll see if it’s sustainable or not. Let’s see what happens. A pretty decent rally. War drums have been driving the market. Mish Shedlock says one should own 10-25% of one’s assets in pm’s right now. Mining stocks are looking good. Margins increased on Gold, Silver and Copper by CME. We see this quite often when the metals start going up, they’re quick to raise margins.

When things are going well, people don’t have time for demonstrations, they’re too busy working and earning income. Events such as this are emblematic of an economic crisis. Bitcoin at $4200. Bitcoin cash at $300. How does it tie into the bad economy meme? Is this truly the birth of competitive currencies? Is Tulipcoin far behind?

Mike Gazzola returns… Imagine a complete Amazon newbie who joins Mike’s group and sells thousands her first day. And she’s not the exception. Many of his students are making Amazon’s Top New Release and rising quickly through the ranks. Once you’re doing $1000 per day, it’s time to release a new product. You keep releasing new products and increasing your sales. One student did over $100,000 in his first three months, just by following the system. Another student, Jamey, was already selling on Amazon bringing in just $100 per day. Now he’s well over $1000 and it keeps getting better and better.

Andrew Agemy is concerned about the retirement crisis. It’s time to create your own pension plan if especially if employer doesn’t offer one. Companies are getting rid of the traditional pension plans and fewer and fewer people are going to have a retirement income besides Social Security. Some will have 401(k) plans and other savings, but most won’t have a guaranteed or promise income for their retirement. It’s not that people necessarily need $1 million or $2 million or $3 million at Retirement. What they need is a check to replace the check that has stopped now that they have stopped working. They may use that $1, $2, $3 million to help them do that but typically that won’t be a promised or guaranteed income. Most often it means withdrawing from there Funds with no guarantees or promises – just hope. There are things that people can do to guarantee themselves and income at retirement – creating their own pension. There are also ways to receive a promised income that they can count on although it’s not guaranteed.
