2404: Crash Bro Hypocrisy & Atlanta Mega-Deals: How to Negotiate When Everyone is Afraid with Michael Zuber

Jason advocates for long-term wealth through income property, which is the premier asset class for tax benefits and inflation protection. He highlights significant updates for real estate investors, specifically regarding extended timelines for 1031 exchanges and improved terms for debt service coverage ratio (DSCR) loans. Listeners are encouraged to move beyond short-term market anxiety and adopt a big-picture perspective on financial growth and geopolitical shifts. Jason also announces a interactive contest involving historical real estate data (MLS) and promotes upcoming events focused on investment education. Finally, Jason introduces a historical analysis of three centuries of financial advice to determine which wealth-building strategies have stood the test of time. Then, Jason interviews Joseph Moore, author of "How to Get Rich in American History: 300 Years of Financial Advice That Worked and Didn't." Joseph shared insights from his decade-long research into financial advice across 300 years of American history, explaining how economic conditions have constantly changed and what strategies consistently worked for wealth building. He discusses seven key strategies that successful Americans employed, including building businesses, taking income from others' businesses, combining smaller incomes through side hustles, extreme saving strategies, leveraged investments, steady long-term investing, and marrying well. Joseph emphasize that while many current financial challenges are often perceived as unique to modern times, similar issues and advice have existed throughout American history, and he encouraged listeners to learn from past experiences to make better financial decisions today. https://www.josephmoorebooks.com/ #HowToGetRichInAmericanHistory #FinancialAdvice #WealthBuilding #AmericanDream #FinancialHistory #RealEstateInvesting #SideHustles #Capitalism #FIREMovement #FinancialIndependence #Investing #EconomicHistory #MoneyManagement #SuccessMindset #HolisticSurvival Key Takeaways: Jason's editorial 0:00 The big picture 2:45 income Property, the IRS, 1031 exchanges and DSCR loans 5:10 Guess the date of this MLS book and win a ticket to https://empoweredinvestorlive.com/ this MAY! 7:29 Upcoming events: https://empoweredinvestorlive.com/ and https://mastermindyachtadventures.com/ Get a FREE account to https://propertytracker.com/   Joseph Moore interview 8:54 Learning to adapt to change  11:14 What worked, and what didn't 15:35 The American dream is dead 20:18 Crashes that didn't happen and some Quotes from The New York Times 21:44 Samples of those who failed and succeeded 25:28 The next big thing is usually a bad idea 27:20 The race to the future and stocks for the long run and goes up to the right 33:50 Women and Side hustles 37:18 Abigail Adams, the Warren Buffet of the 1800s 38:33 Leveraging income property 42:50 The original "Latte Factor," AirBNB and scams before the Internet 46:13 https://www.josephmoorebooks.com/    _______________________________________________________________   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com  

Jason Hartman and Michael Zuber discuss why the average person struggles to achieve wealth, attributing it to a widespread lack of discipline and the inability to delay gratification. They argue that while modern culture and media may celebrate "loser" mentalities, individuals can still succeed by becoming elite and investing in income properties. The conversation shifts to a "confession" regarding interest rates, with both experts admitting they were wrong to predict immediate cuts due to persistent inflationary pressures and energy costs. They further analyze how global geopolitical conflicts involving Iran and China act as a "proxy war" that reshapes the world economy. Ultimately, they encourage investors to maintain a long-term perspective rather than reacting to daily news cycles, emphasizing that periods of struggle often create the best opportunities for savvy buyers. #FinancialFreedom #RealEstateInvesting #WealthBuilding #DelayGratification #StopBeingAverage #IncomeProperty #EconomicOutlook #InterestRates #Geopolitics #InvestmentStrategy #MarketTrends #EmpoweredInvestor #PersonalGrowth #GlobalOrder #FinancialDiscipline Key Takeaways: 0:00  The average American 4:19 It was cool to be a "loser" 7:02 The marshmallow test 8:41 The BEST way to get wealthy 9:57 Jason admits to being wrong 14:55 Trump and the new world order 18:12 Upcoming events: https://empoweredinvestorlive.com/ https://mastermindyachtadventures.com/   _______________________________________________________________   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Jason discusses the necessity of mastering real estate mathematics to achieve financial independence. He introduces updated financial performance tools designed to help investors look beyond simple cash flow to understand the multi-dimensional returns of income property. By comparing leveraged and all-cash deals in Huntsville, Alabama, Hartman illustrates how mortgage paydown, tax benefits, and appreciation significantly bolster a property's actual value. A central theme is inflation-induced debt destruction, a strategy where rising inflation effectively reduces the real cost of fixed-rate debt over time. Ultimately, the source encourages using data-driven analysis to recognize that the most substantial wealth is often generated beneath the surface of traditional investment metrics.

Real estate experts Jason and Michael are happy for crash doomer Nick Gerli ‪@ReventureConsulting ‬for buying a house! They also discuss the irony of a well-known market bear purchasing a home despite predicting a significant price crash. They argue that current market conditions, fueled by investor fear and high interest rates, actually create a unique window for negotiating on income properties. They emphasize that real estate is a multidimensional asset allowing for constant renegotiation through refinancing and improvements, unlike static investments like stocks. They also critique "crash prophets" for failing to account for government interventions and central bank policies that typically prevent total systemic collapses. Finally, the discussion highlights the comparative resilience of income property during economic downturns and concludes with promotions for upcoming investment seminars and luxury networking events. #ReventureConsulting #RealEstateInvesting #CrashBros #AtlantaRealEstate #IncomeProperty #MarketCrash #InterestRates #FederalReserve #CashFlow #BuyAndHold #MegaDeals #EmpoweredInvestorLive #MastermindYachtAdventures #DisrespectfulOffers #PropertyNegotiation #RealEstateDoomers Key Takeaways: 0:00 The ultimate doomer buys a house! 4:18 No rate cuts coming 7:07 Changing the terms in Real estate 9:32 Just play the next domino 14:12 Catch Michael Zuber at the https://EmpoweredInvestorLive.com/ conference this May!

This Flashback Friday is from episode 704, published on July 25, 2016. Jason shares information about credit scores you may not be aware of to assist you in actively managing it. Using his own credit history as an example he explains the terms utilization rate, how installment loans and new credit can negatively impact your score. And later in the show, guest David Daley discusses the subject matter of his new book, Ratf__ked: The True Story Behind the Secret Plan to Steal America's Democracy.  David is the former editor of the liberal site Salon.com and is the current CEO/Publisher of the Connecticut Mirror, a non-partisan publication.   Mentioned in This Episode: Jason Hartman Ratf__ked: The True Story Behind the Secret Plan to Steal America's Democracy @davedaley3 on Twitter    _______________________________________________________________   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

This 2026, be an Empowered Investor! Join us at the Empowered Investor Live this May! Get your tickets today! https://empoweredinvestorlive.com/ Jason welcomes economist and author Michael Zuber as he discusses his "54-year spreadsheet," a comprehensive data project designed to analyze historical economic trends and real estate performance since 1970. By comparing the high-interest-rate environment of the Paul Volcker era to modern conditions, Zuber argues that rising rates typically lead to a crash in transaction volume rather than a collapse in home prices. The discussion highlights how leveraged appreciation makes residential real estate a superior wealth-building tool compared to the stock market. Zuber specifically critiques "doomer" content creators for using flawed metrics that ignore mortgage affordability, causing many people to miss out on significant equity gains. Ultimately, the source serves as a data-driven defense of income property investment and a warning against following pessimistic financial advice that lacks historical context.

In this 10th episode, Connor Boyack discusses the Libertas Network, a nonprofit dedicated to teaching families and children about freedom, entrepreneurship, and critical thinking. He explains that the organization uses practical initiatives like the Tuttle Twins book series and Children's Entrepreneur Markets to provide real-world financial literacy that is often missing from the public school system. Boyack argues that the current educational and political structures are failing, leading to a decline in historical knowledge and an increase in government dependency. To combat this, the network acquired Praxis, a professional boot camp designed as an alternative to the high costs and perceived indoctrination of traditional college. Ultimately, Boyack emphasizes that strengthening the family unit and fostering independent thought are the most effective ways to preserve liberty and rebuild the social fabric. He encourages parents to take an active role in their children's education to ensure they can navigate a complex psychological and economic landscape. https://connorboyack.com/ https://www.kidsmarkets.com/ https://joinpraxis.com/ https://libertas.org/ #TuttleTwins #LibertasNetwork #Entrepreneurship #FinancialLiteracy #KidsMarkets #CriticalThinking #Practis #AmericanHistory #Freedom #FamilyValues #Americana #SocialFabric Key Takeaways: 0:00 Introducing Libertas 7:37  Financial illiteracy and how we got here 10:39 Critical thinking and memory holes and the abandoned mind 16:26 Social Media, Mockingbird and the battlefield of the mind 22:50 Tuttle Twins and Praxis  27:33 Political theater and the coming chaos    _______________________________________________________________   Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Jason Hartman and Michael Zuber discuss the economic impact of a hypothetical war with Iran and its effect on real estate. They predict that while rising oil prices and geopolitical conflict initially cause demand destruction and recessionary fears, the Federal Reserve will ultimately intervene by lowering interest rates. This monetary easing is expected to create a lucrative window for property investors to acquire assets from motivated sellers before prices rise again. Beyond economics, they offer bold political predictions regarding the liberation of foreign nations under the Trump administration's strategies. They conclude that long-term success in property ownership depends on controlling emotions and holding assets long enough for market cycles to turn favorable. This May, become an Empowered Investor.
