CW 715 FBF - Wall Street's Rigged Game Against Main Street USA

Jason Hartman takes a unique middle ground on the Occupy Wall Street protests since Wall Street doesn't represent capitalism as the right-wing media would have us believe while the left-wing media who supports big government and big unions doesn't represent capitalism either. Both sides are promoting a fairy tale. A recent Facebook post sums it up fairly well: This whole issue really isn't that simple. I assume that most of the protesters are clueless folks who need haircuts; however, so is the conservative media (that I mostly agree with) in saying that Wall Street represents "capitalism" – nothing could be further from the truth, Wall Street, banks and mega-corporations are mostly ANTI-CAPITALISM in that they are playing a rigged game with lobbyists, government cronyism and insider dealings at every level. They use lawyers, accountants and PR firms to commit their crimes. There is very little capitalism on Wall Street. If you're looking for capitalism, look at Main Street, where small business operates under far too much government interference. Jason discusses the powerful "Qualified Written Request" (QWR) letter and how it can be a tool for loan modification, short sale, deed-in-leiu of foreclosure and foreclosure litigation. You'll also hear a short article from Jason's newsletter, The Financial Freedom Report, on that all to upsetting topic of "Too Big to Fail."

CW 712 FBF - Nominal Dollars vs Real Dollars and Understanding Investor Psychology with Investment Counselor Sara

Jason Hartman talks with investment counselor, Sara, about investor psychology, overcoming obstacles and getting out of our own way. The smoke-and-mirrors propaganda perpetuated by mainstream media (lamestream media as Sarah Palin says) in reporting the new high in the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA). They almost always fail to distinguish between nominal dollars and real dollars. Jason illustrates how investors have actually lost money in inflation adjusted dollars and how the Dow has to increase a lot more before investors break even based on the two peaks. This lie is even worse when one considers how inflation is underreported in the consumer price index (CPI and CPI-U) due to weighting, substitution and hedonics (the hedonic index). Another misrepresentation is the 'core rate' or 'core inflation' which strips out food and energy because they're too volatile. Jason shares some interesting data from ZeroHedge.com.
