1864: Davos Man: How Billionaires Devoured the World, Peter Goodman Part 1, Independence Day Inflation
07/04/22 • 41 min
Jason Hartman wishes you all a very happy 4th of July celebrating the independence and constitution of this great country and gives you the latest numbers on the biggest scam of all - inflation! He reports the latest CPI inflation numbers to see how much extra your Fourth of July BBQ will cost you this year.
Today’s guest is Peter S. Goodman, Global Economic Correspondent for The New York Times and they discuss his new book: Davos Man: How the Billionaires Devoured the World. Is the World Economic Forum conference in Davos a serious discussion about climate change and injustice or just a chance for billionaires to get together and do business?
The World Economic Forum institution was started by German economist Klaus Schwab back in the 70s, on the proposition that if you got businesses and governments together, you could solve a lot of problems. He's into public private partnerships. He's into Win Win solutions. But along the way, it has become, under the guise of a nonprofit foundation, a highly lucrative enterprise. And Schwab brings in heads of state from around the world to meet with billionaires, public intellectuals, a whole lot of journalists, the odd Hollywood celebrity, musicians etc. But according to Goodman, it’s a charade; they are there to do business.

1863 FBF: Multidimensional Aspects of Income Property & Real Estate Investment Opportunities in Atlanta Georgia
Today's Flashback Friday is from episode 271 published on August 1, 2012.
Jason Hartman answers client questions, discusses the organization of your real estate portfolio and is interviewed by Future Money Trends. During the interview, Jason discusses the multi-dimensional nature of income property and the one-dimensional or maybe two-dimensional nature of other investments as well as the demand equation.
They can outsource all the manufacturing jobs to China, they can outsource all the call centers and administrative jobs to India or the Philippines, they can even “outsource” retail shopping to the internet; however, so long as the U.S. population is increasing there will be increased demand for housing. This is especially true with all the home-based business and corporate people working at home.
Even Fortune 1000 companies are telling some of their employees to work at home. Remember that people only have three choices 1) buy, 2) rent or 3) be homeless. Be sure to join Jason and his team in Atlanta, Georgia.

People cannot accurately predict appreciation or depreciation so any asset that doesn’t produce income from day one is a speculation and speculators usually lose. Investing isn’t a gamble since it involves buying assets that produce income. There are many interesting issues discussed in this interview.
