Kerry Lutz's--Financial Survival Network

In this episode of the Financial Survival Network, host Kerry Lutz welcomes back Michael Pento of https://PentoPort.com. The conversation dives into the ongoing economic challenges and the questionable policies affecting both markets and everyday Americans. They discuss the current "election insanity" and question whether the outcome will truly address the underlying economic issues, highlighting that neither candidate offers a complete solution. Michael Pento shares his insights on how government spending, particularly the trillions of dollars in stimulus and helicopter money, has contributed to inflation and economic instability. The discussion touches on the flaws of government intervention, including proposed subsidies for housing, which they argue will only inflate prices further. Pento also criticizes the reliance on money printing and the lack of sound fiscal policy, warning that these actions could lead to long-term economic pain. They wrap up by addressing the challenges faced by the middle class, the dangers of asset bubbles, and the importance of preparing for potential economic downturns. Kerry and Michael agree that while short-term fixes like money printing may temporarily boost markets, they ultimately set the stage for more significant issues down the road.
