Kerry Lutz's--Financial Survival Network

Realty Estate Expert Dale Nabors joined us on FSN to answer the following questions:

* Why does Tampa continually rank high for foreclosures?

* How can the Real Estate market be a profitable source of income?

Most importantly do your research in advance and you'll avoid unpleasant surprises. 

Financial expert and regular network contributor Jordan Goodman is just back from China where he has seen all the makings of what he considers to be a housing bubble ready to burst. Endless residential and commercial construction, giant buildings and shopping centers with no tenants - so called Ghost Cities' - and an economy that can no longer support the massive build-up. 

"What we have is a recipe for disaster in China and we are seeing it now with wild Chinese stock market fluctuations affecting world markets. The scariest thing however is that unlike what we saw in the US in 2008, this collapse will be much bigger and potentially more destructive to the world economy", says Goodman.

Goodman traveled all across China by rail where he saw with his own eyes buildings going up in cities too small to support their growth. Complicating the economic problems in the world's second largest economy is that China has no property tax therefore the only revenue cities can count on is real estate construction and sales.  

• Is a housing collapse in China inevitable?
• How will it affect our economy?
• What should the average American do to brace for the worse case scenario?
• is it too late to prevent a housing collapse in China?

China is slowing down and what effect will that have on the US and the rest of the world? In other words, when China sneezes, the rest of the world catches cold. 

Jeremy Greenfield has successfully de-mystified the elusive high credit score and his story has taken over the lead here at TheStreet. It's easier to raise your credit score than you think. First get a copy from one of the three bureaus. Then start analyzing your balances and then listen to this show. 

Roger began his career as a Financial Advisor in 1991. This allowed him to witness first-hand the rise and fall of the “new economy” and the Dot-com bubble that ended in 2000. This experience solidified for him that financial management is about people, not money, and that they are served best by advisors that are fiduciaries to their clients and have the heart of a teacher. In 2003 he left, at the time, the largest private bank in the world and, with two wonderful partners, established WWK Wealth Advisors. Today, WWK Wealth Advisors are a firm of 14 professionals managing over $200 million in assets.

The last time Eric Hadik was with us he was calling for a bottom in gold in July 2015. This was based soley on cycle research. Here we are in July and Eric once again appears to be right on money. Gold is hovering just below $1100 the ounce and appears to be at resistance. We will know in the next several weeks how accurate Eric's forecast was, but right now it's looking very canny. 

Dr. Elaina George is concerned that health insurers are becoming so big that they will soon be Too big to fail. And she's right. That's why she's gone the route of Liberty HealthShare, where like minded people have co-opted together to pay their health care  bills together. Liberty HealthShare is a truly non-profit organization. Dr. George has been a member for the past 18 months and has gotten many of her friends and family members involved as well. It works! 

Special Monday Edition with Andrew Hoffman:

Manipulation Is Starting To Collapse! 

COMMODITY, EQUITY COLLAPSE!

CHINA STOCK PLUNGE, ECONOMIC IMPLOSION.

RECORD LOW CURRENCIES

SURGING PM DEMAND, KEY REVERSALS UPWARD

END GAME IN SIGHT, EVERYWHERE!

Check out - TODAY'S ARTICLE, "THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TODAY AND LATE 2008)"

China's stock market is crashing, their efforts at Plunge Protection are failing miserably and no one knows what to do. The debt burden is crushing dozens of countries around the globe and the current system is doomed to failure. Where are we headed next? What's a central banker to do? Can the current economic system possibly survive? We shall soon find out. 

Dales Bellis is currently the executive director of Liberty HealthShare. He led the reorg of Liberty Healthcare, which is the offspring of the the ACA/Obamacare. It provided an exception or loophole for healthcare sharing ministries. But Liberty’s origins actually go back to the ’80’s. Dale's work in healthcare goes back to the first cost-sharing group ever begun in modern times, in 1988 when he started with just 1,000 families. By 2001 there were 25,000 families sharing medical bills. He helped get legislation passed in 11 states exempting cost sharing organizations from insurance regulation. He's been a pioneer in the technological and administrative sides of the business as well. Dale's accomplishments have started a revolution in cost sharing and I'm extremely proud to have him on the show. 

Aaron Clarey wrote a book The Black Man's Guide Out of Poverty: For Black Men Who Demand Better, for which he has received the title racist by certain members of the black community. Fortunately, it has been a real boost to sales. Aaron's motives for writing the book have only been pure. He wanted to help young black men avoid the poverty trap. So Aaron proves that a white man can help blacks get out of the ghetto.

Lowell Ponte explains the significance of Greece of it's history of blocking the expansion and dominance of Islam. 

Hard to believe that the cure all legislation Dodd-Frank is now 5 years old. The damage that's been done by this law is incalculable. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is an agency run amok. It recently issued new rules replacing the venerable RESPA and HUD-1 Statement and is causing disruption in the mortgage market. But Danielle believes that better times are ahead as the banking system breaks down and lenders once again start knowing their borrower. Is the end of transactional banking ahead? 

James Turk joined us today. We discussed the Chinese Government's recent disclosure of their gold holdings. While the number may be true in a technical sense, they could have other custodians holding much more gold that they will not disclose until a later more advantageous time. Meanwhile, GoldMoney and BitGold have merged and this will profoundly affect the way the West uses gold at some point in the future, once Americans are allowed to use it as a payment mechanism. Interesting times ahead. James has not changed his view of the world's economic future. 

Jamie Meloni has been called the Million Dollar Real Estate Agent and is a foreclosure sales specialist in the Tampa Florida Market. He says that while the hedge funds and private equity buyers aren't buying up single family home foreclosures in the records numbers they were in 2012, they're still active purchasers. This seems to fly in the face of the commonly held wisdom, but perhaps the Florida RE market has certain properties that make it more robust than others across the nation. Since it's so retiree dominated that makes it less employment driven, which is a real plus in today's flagging job market. 

Bill Tatro is a long time economy watcher and money expert. His show It's all about Money, is well known. He believes that cash is king. He doesn't see hyper-inflation coming for quite some time. Increasing taxes and increased interest rates will be poison for the economy. So having a lot of cash is a good thing. Will we suffer from bail-ins like much of Europe is poised for? That's the key question and we will soon know the answer. 

Flash-crash in gold early Monday am just adds to the fun. Can you believe the Chinese Gold Reserve Number? We don't. Treat it just like any other government economic statistic, designed to accomplish a specific governmental goal, whatever that might be. Rick Rule has been waiting for the Great Capitulation. Could this be it? We're not sure, but we're certainly a lot closer to it than we were. Remember to always treat your PM holdings as an insurance policy and none of the noise will reach you. 

Socialism is not about helping people, it's about government helping itself to your money. Unemployment rises while costs go up and prices are going up. So we have inflation and deflation taking place at the same time. An economic downturn is virtually assured. The Euro System is breaking down before our eyes. All the countries of the Euro are doing badly. The bondholders are being supported against the people. The result will be tragedy. 

With many of the major wedge issues resolved by the recent rulings from the U-S Supreme Court - we now head into the 2016 presidential election cycle with two looming unresolved issues. Immigration and Tax Reform.

Part of the tax reform discussion involves a so called 'Flat Tax'. But can it work?

"Behind all the chatter about a flat tax are some very flawed assumptions", says tax pro and owner of the Happy Tax franchise Mario Costanz. "I think if you look at it closely it has the potential of doing more harm than good".

Horrible economic data/Yellen Humprhey-Hawkins

Beginning in the 1960’s almost all traditional American values of service, assimilation, incremental, generational improvement have been attacked.

With the latest attempt to attack the reputations of our founding fathers, a long simmering notion that forces are at work trying to destroy America’s heritage may in fact be happening. Attacks on George Washington, churches, political institutions, family values, and the concept of the melting pot makes one wonder if this is all true.

The rule of consensus is being replaced by “group advantage.” We are seeing fundamental changes in our public discourses which undermine America’s original intent “out of many, one.”

Dave Barnett believes that the best way to invest is to invest locally. While it's not as easy as going online and buying a stock that means that the potential rewards can be far greater. That's why Dave has written a book and created an online course to make it easier for you to learn how to do it. He's got the forms and the systems all there in one place, so now there's no excuses. It's time to start helping your community grow and to profit in the process. 

While the mainstream media, the party elites and the talking heads continue to disparage Donald Trump, Wayne Allyn Root is wholeheartedly supporting him. He believes that there's no other candidate who's up to the job of restoring America. Wayne says that Trump is talking about issues that no other candidate would dare touch. Will it take him to the White House? Assuming he doesn't self-destruct, there's a very good chance that he'll win.
