WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.780 The reason I wrote 00:00:00.780 --> 00:00:02.075 The Rich Dad Poor Dad was 00:00:02.075 --> 00:00:04.105 Because I knew this time was coming 00:00:04.105 --> 00:00:08.342 [Music] 00:00:08.342 --> 00:00:11.852 And we have as world have never been here before 00:00:12.252 --> 00:00:13.592 and so it's a spooky time 00:00:13.592 --> 00:00:14.562 Damn yet 00:00:14.961 --> 00:00:16.971 It's probably the most dangerous time 00:00:17.031 --> 00:00:18.641 Ever ever ever ever 00:00:18.791 --> 00:00:20.661 There's nothing to compare it to 00:00:20.661 --> 00:00:23.251 because there's never been a world economy before 00:00:23.251 --> 00:00:24.011 For example 00:00:24.011 --> 00:00:25.741 you know 100 years ago 00:00:25.741 --> 00:00:28.361 if there was a stock market crash in England 00:00:28.361 --> 00:00:29.611 Didn't affect anybody 00:00:29.611 --> 00:00:31.461 but now the US market goes down 00:00:31.461 --> 00:00:32.689 the world goes down 00:00:32.689 --> 00:00:34.540 So plus with social media 00:00:34.540 --> 00:00:36.560 and all this we're doing right now 00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:38.995 so we've never been here before 00:00:39.100 --> 00:00:40.890 and 00:00:40.890 --> 00:00:41.890 You know I 00:00:41.890 --> 00:00:43.890 I'm excited about it 00:00:43.890 --> 00:00:46.340 Because I make more money in crashes 00:00:46.340 --> 00:00:48.110 than I do when they go up 00:00:48.110 --> 00:00:49.560 so but for the average person 00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:50.990 they'll get wiped out 00:00:50.990 --> 00:00:52.760 I'm afraid at the worst 00:00:52.760 --> 00:00:53.940 I hope I'm wrong 00:00:53.940 --> 00:00:55.070 but I think we head for 00:00:55.070 --> 00:00:56.790 a global depression 00:00:56.790 --> 00:00:59.420 How does this play out 00:00:59.420 --> 00:01:00.880 for the average worker 00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:02.720 for the small business owner 00:01:02.720 --> 00:01:04.890 I mean what's the next 3 months look like? 00:01:04.890 --> 00:01:05.709 because it doesn't look preaty 00:01:05.709 --> 00:01:07.509 I mean people are already being laid off 00:01:07.509 --> 00:01:08.809 made redundant 00:01:08.809 --> 00:01:09.749 businesses are 00:01:09.749 --> 00:01:12.339 there's no cash flow in most of these businesses 00:01:12.339 --> 00:01:14.039 How does that play out?
