On today’s show we are talking about how to handle delays. Whether you are stuck in traffic, your flight was canceled, your supplier just told you that that a critical component is out of stock or a ten minute appointment is going to take a month, delays seem to be pervasive. Delays cost money, real money. -------------- Host: Victor Menasce email: podcast@victorjm.com

On today’s show we’re continuing our series on inflation. Do far this week we’ve studied what the real rate of inflation is, why our governments have got themselves into a debt trap, and what people on fixed incomes are facing in an inflationary environment. Today we’re looking at what you can do as an investor to protect yourself against inflation. ------------ Host: Victor Menasce email: podcast@victorjm.com

On today’s show the focus is what people on fixed incomes will do in the face of inflation. Most people in the general population don’t have the entrepreneurial skills to design their own income streams. If they experience a loss of income, the tools at their disposal are limited. They either continue their lifestyle by going into debt, or they cut expenses. Increasing debt is a temporary solution employed by many. But this too has the effect of running out of eventually forcing financial belt tightening. We will see several forms of household cost reduction. ----------------- Host: Victor Menasce email: podcast@victorjm.com

On today’s show we’re continuing our series this week on inflation. On yesterday’s show we talked about the debt trap that countries find themselves in.

On today’s show we’re taking a deeper look at inflation. Inflation is in the news these days and with good reason. This week we’re taking a deeper look at inflation over the course of several shows. On today’s show we’re going to talk about the very first impact, the wiping out of purchasing power for those on fixed income. So what happens when inflation gets out of control? People on main street suffer the most. There are three impacts of inflation. 1) It has the effect of wiping out purchasing power for those on fixed incomes 2) It has the effect of wiping out savings 3) It has the effect of wiping out debt with fixed interest rates. In an inflationary environment the underground economy flourishes. There are numerous examples of this.

On today’s show we are talking about the danger of predicting the future. But we may be on the edge of a cliff that few people can truly see coming. It was only a few weeks ago that economists were predicting continued economic growth into the fourth quarter. Kids are returning to school, life is getting back to normal, and the economy should generate about 750,000 jobs in the month of August. But when the real numbers were tallied, the number of jobs created was 1/3 of the gain expected.
