2023-11-12 EXPERT INTERVIEW – MARK JEFTOVIC

Inflation went from “transient” to, “it’s good for you” to, “we’ve got to do something before we have a revolution on our hands”. But (the Fed) they’re kind of trapped now because they can’t keep raising (interest rates) because we’re seeing what’s happening to the debt and the bond markets. They can’t raise and they can’t lower and they can’t stay where they are. They’ve really painted themselves into a corner, pretty well all the central banks have. Join the conversation on today’s episode of Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio with your host, Dennis Tubbergen, and guest, Mark Jeftovik, and hear his forecast for inflation, cryptocurrency, and the dollar.

Mark E. Jeftovic Mark is a 30-year veteran of the Internet, the co-founder & CEO of easyDNS Technologies, a Toronto-based web services company, and the author of two books about the internet; Unassailable: Protect Yourself from Cancel-Culture, and Deplatform Attacks, and other Online Disasters.

2023-10-29 EXPERT INTERVIEW – EGON VON GREYERZ

We all know that central banks and governments don’t present accurate economic data. While they report inflation at roughly 4 percent, we all know from our own experience at the grocery, gas pump, and just about everywhere else we spend money that inflation is likely much closer to 20 percent annually. Globally, debt is over 330 trillion today, and the derivatives market is estimated to exceed $2 quadrillion. Don’t miss this week’s episode of Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio, where your host, Dennis Tubbergen, talks with Egon von Greyerz about his forecast for how global debt and derivatives risk will be reconciled and what that means for the future of our economy, the markets, and the financial system. Spoiler alert… it ain’t pretty.

He began his professional life in Geneva, Switzerland, as a banker and thereafter spent 17 years as the Finance Director and Executive Vice-Chairman of Dixons Group Plc.

Joining your host, Dennis Tubbergen, on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio this week is economist and demographics expert Harry Dent. Dent tells us that while the Fed printed its way out of the economic crash in 2008, the next crash will be much bigger because the recent boom was all artificial.

2023-10-15 EXPERT INTERVIEW – KERRY LUTZ

We have said for many years that the easy money policies of recent years end in inflation followed by deflation, or deflation. This week’s guest on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio, Mr. Kerry Lutz, echoed that idea in his conversation with your host, Dennis Tubbergen. In response, Lutz sees that in an inflationary environment, the price and purchasing of gold go higher, and in a deflationary environment, the price of gold goes lower, but the purchasing power goes much higher. You’ll want to hear the whole conversation as they also discuss the stock market, real estate, and much more.

Kerry Lutz has been a student of Austrian Economics since 1977. While attending Pace University, he stumbled upon an extensive cache of Austrian Economic Literature in a dark, musty, abandoned section of the school’s library.

Two years ago, the 10-year US Treasury note was yielding .50 percent. Now it’s 4.8 percent. That debt is rolling over, and the money that it costs to service that debt is skyrocketing.

2023-09-17 EXPERT INTERVIEW – KEVIN DEMERITT

Historically, the life span of a world reserve currency is about 80-100 years. So, it’s no surprise that the BRICS countries, who now represent over 40% of the world population and oil production, would be working together to replace the US Dollar with a new trade currency, likely one backed by commodities including gold. As our first-time guest on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio, Mr. Kevin Demeritt, suggested, this could push the price of gold to as much as $5,000 an ounce in the next 2-3 years. He talks with your host, Dennis Tubbergen, about how central banks around the world are accumulating gold at volumes not seen in 50 years.

As the Founder of Lear Capital, Kevin DeMeritt’s knowledge of economic cycles, financial trends, sovereign debt, and diversification strategies has helped to establish Lear as one of the most highly respected and routinely endorsed precious metals companies in the country. With his roots in international banking, Kevin DeMeritt has consistently demonstrated an uncanny ability to anticipate financial trends and help investors profit accordingly. A respected analyst, a sought-after financial expert, and a celebrated author, his book The Bulls, The Bears and The Bust, predicted the market crash of 2001 and the ensuing rise of gold as a safe haven investment.

2023-06-25 EXPERT INTERVIEW – KARL DENNINGER

The Fed has raised interest rates, but what the Fed has not managed to do is get Congress to cut out or curtail spending in any meaningful way. We had about a 4 trillion-dollar federal budget prior to COVID, now over 6 trillion. That’s a 50% expansion from what it used to be, and there is no indication that anybody in Congress is willing to put that back to where it was. As a result, we’re not going to see inflation go away until that happens. Your host, Dennis Tubbergen, talks with Karl Denninger this week on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio about the economic challenges that lie ahead. It’s an enlightening conversation you’ll want to hear.

Mr. Karl Denninger is an American technology businessman, finance blogger, author, and political activist, sometimes referred to as a founding member of the Tea Party movement.  Mr. Denninger is the author of the book Leverage: How Cheap Money Will Destroy the World.

2023-05-07 EXPERT INTERVIEW – MICHAEL PENTO

The problem in the banking system is pretty simple, for ten out of the last fourteen years, mortgage rates have been well below the effective Fed funds rate today, which is 5.1%. So, bank assets are yielding very, very low-income streams to banks. Alternatively, you can go out right now and get over 5% on a risk-free ultra-short-term treasury note. No liquidity risks, no duration risks, nothing. This week on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio, our guest, Michael Pento, talks with your host, Dennis Tubbergen, about the banking crisis and the Fed’s next move.

2023-04-30 EXPERT INTERVIEW – JOHN RUBINO

The money supply is shrinking. For the first time since the early 70’s, the FED is shrinking the US money supply; and it’s going down pretty dramatically.  Sometime in the next year, the government’s going to be confronted with a dilemma: does it ramp up the money supply at the cost of possibly reigniting inflation and causing the instability that flows from rising inflation, or does it let a large number of entities fail and just hope for the best? Our guest this week, Mr. John Rubino, provides and excellent perspective on the US economy in his conversation with your host, Dennis Tubbergen, on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio.

2023-04-16 EXPERT INTERVIEW – ALASDAIR MACLEOD

When you look at the FDIC insurance programs that insure bank deposits, the deposit insurance reserve fund has about 170 billion in it to ensure $11 trillion of bank deposits. However, the idea that the insurance fund is there just to protect small depositors is very misleading. The primary duty of a modern central bank is to ensure the integrity of the commercial banking system; that means that all depositors must be protected. Our guest this week on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio is Mr. Alasdair Macleod. He shares a brilliant perspective on the banking industry and the future of Western currencies in his conversation with your host, Dennis Tubbergen.

The first thing that people need to realize is none of what’s happening in today’s economy is new. This is a scenario that’s played out many times over human history.

Our guest this week on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio is Mr. Brien Lundin. Your host, Dennis Tubbergen, talks with Mr. Lundin about his thoughts on the future of the dollar and his forecast for the months ahead.

2022-12-18 EXPERT INTERVIEW – ALASDAIR MACLEOD

The systemic risks, particularly from foreign banking networks like the Eurozone, and Japan which are very highly leveraged, are very, very substantial. And with contracting bank credit, they merely get heightened. This summary is from our guest this week on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates, Mr. Alasdair Macleod. Your host Dennis Tubbergen talks with Macleod about this risk and the periodic cyclical banking crises often called kindly a correction, but in this case, probably “crash” is the better description.

2022-09-25 EXPERT INTERVIEW – BRIEN LUNDIN

In the 1970s, when Paul Volcker was cranking up interest rates to kill off inflation, he could do that because the size of the federal debt was only about 30% of the GDP at the time. Today, the federal debt is about 130% of GDP.  No matter what Jerome Powell’s intentions are, even if he has the same fortitude as Volcker had in fighting inflation, he just doesn’t have the tools. In fact, he has nothing he can really do. Our guest this week on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio is Brien Lundin.  Join your host, Dennis Tubbergen, as he and Brien discuss the fate of the dollar as the reserve currency, an international return to a gold standard, and the current state of world markets.

2022-06-12 EXPERT INTERVIEW – SIMON POPPLE

While inflation of the current magnitude hasn’t been seen since the late 1970s and early 1980s, we’re not likely to see the type of response from the Fed, vis-à-vis Volker raising interest rates to 20%. This week’s guest on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates radio is Simon Popple, who points out that central banks around the world have created tremendous amounts of currency with interest rates of 1 percent or less. Just raising the rates to 2 percent equates to a 100 percent increase in the cost of serving that debt.

Mr. Simon Popple is the author of the Brookville Capital Intelligence Report.  Mr. Popple started a newsletter with MoneyWeek called Metals & Miners and when they were acquired, he set up Gold Speculator with Jim Rickards.

2022-06-05 EXPERT INTERVIEW – DR. ROBERT MCHUGH

We’re in a hyperinflation. The Fed is overreacting. Supply is not increasing. The government’s economic policies are not aimed at increasing supplies.

This week on Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio, your host Dennis Tubbergen visits again with cycles expert Dr. Charles Nenner, who tells us that we have entered the next 30-year cycle of inflation and high-interest rates. Dr. Nenner says that while the central banks don’t appear to know what they are doing or how they’ll ultimately resolve the inflation and high-interest rate climate, he calculates that if we were to return to a gold standard, gold would be about $48,000 per ounce, which even he admits would be crazy!

Congress has defrauded the American public by claiming we could issue this credit that is created from deficit spending by the United States Federal Government and sequesters it overseas.

We’re in the danger zone. The magic number for the 10-year treasury yield that we can’t go beyond is probably a little bit lower than it was in 2018.
