5:00 pm
adam: 500 million and counting. jeff flock, thaw very much. >> liz claman and adam will be here tomorrow. next hour "the willis report." i will be there with gerri talking real estate. shameless self-promotion. a@am: see you later. "willis report" next. gerri: hello, everybody, i'm gerri willis. and this is "the willis report," a show where consumers are our business. clintons on the defense. bill dismisses any wrongdoing in the foundation's handling of foreign cash. >> i don't think that i did anything that was against the interests of the united states. gerri: the baltimore cure if you is lifted -- curfew is lifted but hundreds of businesses is lost. why one business owner says the real work begins now. buy, sell or hold. we kick off our week-long special user's guide to spring real estate. our panel of experts break down the picture for sellers and aisleses. i do with the marriage pan
5:01 pm
knelt. walking down the aisle could mean walking away with bigger tax bill. clark howard with the traps they need to watch out. does the high-priced hardware live up to the hype? all that and more coming up on "the willis report" where consumers are our business. gerri: bill clinton, on the defense says he has no regrets for taking millions of dollars from foreign donors for the clinton's charitable foundation. the former president telling nbc's cynthia mcfaden, quote, there is no doubt in my mind we never done anything knowingly inappropriate in terms of taking money to influence any kind of american government policy that just hasn't happened. here to weigh in our political panel. "national review" editor rich lowery townhall.com he had toward katie pavlich, a fox news contributor. rich, i have to get your reaction to this comment.
5:02 pm
i found it so delicious and clintonian. >> you look at that sentence you really want to parse every single word. gerri: bring in the lawyers. >> what does he mean by knowingly? another thing comes from this interview, tremendous sense of self-pity. as though the whole world is out to get them and struggling to meet the bills and keep lights on in humble home somewhere and that is why he has to give $500,000 speeches a pop. gerri: hard to take this whole thing seriously. i want to play another piece of sound from the former president and get katie to react. listen to this from president clinton. >> i've given 10% to pay my bills. >> working americans look and say $500,000 for a speech? >> why shouldn't every, it is most independent i can get. if i had a business relationship with somebody they would have target on their back from the day they did business with me until the end. any kind of disclosure is a
5:03 pm
target. and but it looks bad. there are no facts but it looks bad. people, i work hard on this i spend a couple hours a day just doing research. people like to hear >> she is now running for president. will you continue to give speeches? >> oh yeah. itch got to pay our bills. gerri: my heart bleeds katie how about yours? >> i got bills to pay. they have multiple mortgages right? just like everyone else but having to bring in $500,000 to pay the bills. i mean it is absolutely absurd. apparently hillary will not be out on the stump speech making that much money, bill will pick up the slack for that. but, it goes back to what will be very difficult for her, again on the campaign trail, with bill clinton continuing to dot speeches. bad enough for them to do them. for them to do it continuing moving forward for her to say i'm just like everyone else. you should vote for me. rich are bad. because they are part of the problem. gerri: confounding. rich are bad. they are rich.
5:04 pm
hard for me to follow. rich, to you though, one of the things he says in that is that disclosure is a target. >> yeah. gerri: what do you make of that? >> well it is his way of justifying not going into business with anyone else. but, look disclosure has been a target in one sense which is why they avoided disclosure. why she didn't want to disclose emails having anything to do with the foundation and apparently destroyed them all to avoid disclosure. gerri: i have to move on now. we have more people jumping into the presidential election, the race, for 2016. and we've got lots of names here. former hbc ceo, carly fiorina. we have ben carson, retired neurosurgeon. huckabee former governor expected to announce tomorrow. what do you make of this katie? looks like we'll end up having 20 possible gop candidates? >> they are all good candidates. it will be very difficult for voters decide who they want to
5:05 pm
vote for. they have all something different to offer. ben carson rose to political fame, took on president obama over obamacare. carly fiorina dabbled in political atmosphere by trying to run for president in california. fiorina are obviously new fresh faces. they have going for them i'm closer to the people. i'm not in the political atmosphere, i'm outside of washington attitude which is something people look for until people get on the debate stage. they make a mistake. don't sound like a politician. all of sudden they're not qualified to be in the race. it will be a long haul to next summer. as it will be interesting to see actually if we get candidate here before the convention in july. gerri: good point, katie. rich, what do you make of these three candidates? does anybody have a shot? >> i think they're all very talented communicators in their own way. carley in particular has given excellent speeches last couple months. it is very crowded field. very third to do it when you're
5:06 pm
a non-politician. very hard to do it when you've been out of the game for a long time, like mike huckabee. one of the last two lessons, in 'in 80 and '12. in' 08 it was huckabee. in '12 it was santorum. gerri: a lot of people are concerned in the wake of baltimore. could this be a summer of rage? 96% tell people they feel additional racial disturbances will happen this summer. all eyes on baltimore obviously today and ongoing. katie, to you, is this going to be a theme this summer? will this be an ongoing issue? >> i think it will be an ongoing issue quite frankly the left and media focus on issues that don't necessarily deserve as much attention maybe they think. i think that presidential candidates as they move forward will be asked to address these problems. because we'll turn it into a national issue and maybe that isn't necessarily the case. will come down to candidates
5:07 pm
being asked how they would handle a national conversation about race whether circumstances about it all in the first place. sure it will be part of that. i think that people are concerned. but i also think that mostly, i don't want to say an isolated incident but i don't think it is at level people made it out to be. gerri: rich, what do you say? >> one lesson from both ferguson and baltimore is you have to put a stop to it first time someone break as window, throw as rock. tough throw overwhelming police national guard resources at it. then it stops. gerri: rich, katie, thank you for that. great conversation. we now want to know what you think. here is our question tonight. is the clinton excuse on the up and up? or another cover-up? log on to gerriwillis.com and vote. i will share the results at the end of tonight's show. we were talking about race and violence, right? despite the curfew in baltimore being lifted after a week of unrest connected to death of freddie gray, businesses there
5:08 pm
are still suffering. in a telling op-ed in today's "wall street journal" one of the city's business owner says it is not lack of investment but the city's red tape that is the real problem. jay stein mets bar-coding ceo gives us his take. jay, thank you so much for coming on the show. what is it like to run a business in baltimore these days? >> well i mean i love baltimore. it is my city. it can be challenging. we've got obviously riots, but hopefully they will go away. but it is a high tax environment. it is not conducive for being able to grow organic business. a lot of businesses that are in baltimore are there because at the work off of selling to the population of baltimore. that is not how we operate. we're a nationwide systems integrator of automatic identification technology systems. we're providing technology across the country as well as the world. so we compete nationally and internationally. and being in baltimore has some disadvantages.
5:09 pm
i highlighted them in my article. gerri: we found that fascinating frankly. did a great job of sort of describing what it is like to do business there. i want to get that in detail. first was your business damaged in any way in preceding week? >> the riot did not cause any damage to our business. there was another small business, a liquor store that was looted on our street but most of the violence happened in an area i didn't even know existed because, baltimore is made up of some amazing places and some not so amazing places. it has tendency to hide its not so amazing places. that is not where we are. gerri: that is a big story there. tell us you described how taxes are a burden. fees fines. seems to me that would be a big hurdle for small businesses to want to start up there. tell us what you've experienced. >> so i mean it is difficult. you're dealing with, as a business owner you want your head down and focused on your business. if you have to worry about a
5:10 pm
theft, we had theft employee steal something. you don't steal from a bar-coding company. we track everything. it wasn't difficult to find them. nonetheless, we had to worry about that. we had to worry about frivolous lawsuits. we had to worry about having a lot of insurance. we've had some break-ins. gerri: graffiti was ongoing problem. that you had to take care of it and pay fines on. >> it is just, it is not expensive but it is annoying. it is frustrating. frustrating when you know you have to worry that your office was broken into but it wasn't. it turns out that you get fined because they didn't find anybody. then it does get, then it does get broken into the next day. that doesn't happen all the time. gerri: that sounds frustrating. >> we wouldn't be there if it happened all the time but you know what happens is it is layering of issues that makes us less productive. it is constant, not just baltimore. obviously baltimore has issues and we are located in an area where we can bring from the
5:11 pm
youth in the area. there is a lot of colleges in baltimore. i think this riot will have a long-term effect on that. i'm hoping not. nonetheless, you know, we've positioned ourselves in a place where we have nice ecosystem around us. but generally speaking it is difficult. it is difficult because you have to worry about people walking into your facility and taking something. we have like fort knox in our facility. we had to be that way because we can't trust people. it is unfortunate. gerri: it is unfortunate. you mentioned very high taxes on your small business there. jay, thanks for coming on. great to meet. >> you our pleasure. thank you very much for having me. gerri: we've got more more, more to come this hour. day one of our user's guide to the spring real estate market. should you buy, sell or hold? saying i do doesn't mean saying i do to a bigger tax bill. clark howard reveals way newlyweds can ease the tax hit. tweet me @gerriwillisfbn or send
5:13 pm
the real question that needs to be asked is "what is it that we can do that is impactful?" what the cloud enables is computing to empower cancer researchers. it used to take two weeks to sequence and analyze a genome; with the microsoft cloud we can analyze 100 per day. whatever i can do to help compute a cure for cancer, that's what i'd like to do. when a moment spontaneously turns romantic why pause to take a pill? and why stop what you're doing to find a bathroom?

5:15 pm
gerri: well tonight we're covering all things consumer. first tesla unveiling a new line of batteries to power your home. can they really keep the lights on and save you money? spring is the time, coups say i do but what they don't know they're tieing a knot with uncle sam. that's right it is all about taxes. from tesla to taxes we're covering the bottom line with clark howard consumer expert and host of nationally syndicated show, clark howard show. well-named. >> glad to be here. gerri: can we start with this tesla thing? because i'm sort of mesmerized whole idea we can use batteries to actually fuel our house. how realistic is this really? >> well only the early adopters, the pioneers, will do the tesla battery packs in conjunction with solar.
5:16 pm
the thing that is not really been talked about is this completely changes the power equation for the power companies because the big problem for the power companies is that during peak demand hours, they're having to buy power on the open market at huge costs to get passed on to you and my. if they use industrial scale battery packs from tesla, or one of teslas competitors they can put power into the battery packs when power is cheap. then during peak times send the battery the stuff stored on batteries out on the grid and we will save a fortune. gerri: well, that is a good idea. that is interesting. i like that. we're also talking though about consumers buying themselves. >> sure. gerri: no small feat here. talking 3500 bucks. >> no. 3500 is the only -- gerri: i'm not done yet. you interrupted my friend. >> sorry, sorry. gerri: up to $4,000 in ac/dc
5:17 pm
inverter. maybe you explain what that means to me. will i only need one batteries, several batteries? seems this could be several thousand 10,000 dollars to do this in my house? >> yeah, that is why this is for early adopters. i give you another use. if somebody lives in rural area they're not close to the power network, they can go all battery packs with solar or wind, and they will absolutely save a lot of money versus paying the extreme costs in rural area to be hooked up to the power grid. another use is in areas where power is not so dependable you can use one of these battery packs as a standby equivalent of a generator. generators cost tens of thousands of dollars. gerri: right good ones do. >> even with the cost of inverter, you know, you're still
5:18 pm
going to save a great deal of money using one of the battery packs as standby backup power for your home or your business. gerri: well color me skeptical, but i think you make some interesting points. let's move on to our second topic which is the marriage tax penalty. you're getting married this spring. you could get hit with some pretty astounding taxes. tell us. >> you know it is amazing how any marriage, any family the tax code can be because the way the tax code is set up for married couples, originally was set up with the idea that one person would be working, the other would be stay at home or work very part time and there would be a wide gap in income between the two wage earners. and so the tax code was very friendly in at that situation. but today we have a circumstance where men and women earn much closer to each other. a third of women earn higher income than their husband. so what happens in that case, in
5:19 pm
most cases, is that there's a big marriage penalty, if you are a really high income earning household, you pay a lot more taxes. if you are a lower income household, you pay a lot more taxes, married versus just living together. only in a area in between do people earning similar incomes not get taken advantage of by saying i do. gerri: wow. >> so it is kind of rotten isn't it? gerri: that's right. it is rotten. clark howard thanks for pointing it out to us. thanks for coming on the show tonight. always great to have you here. >> great to see. >> coming up later, it is a new corporate trend offering college to workers. will this help deflate our student debt bubble? the next survival of fittest. have you seen this one? pretty swift. is the fitness craze running out of steam? what will this do for you? stay with us. ♪
5:23 pm
gerri: battle of the fitness trackers. seems like a new one comes out every week right? jawbone unveils a new one. have you seen it? costs more than the previous one but is it worth it? "wall street journal" put it to the test. i like the jawbone products. i had questions about newest one, the three. how is it different from the previous iteration? >> they jammed a lot of sensors into it. you can't tell. >> the silver one. >> this is the apple watch down here. this is the jawbone app right up here. what is amazing they crammed a ton of sensors there. would not know looking at this thing. heart rate sensor. take the temperature outside.
5:24 pm
tons of things but right now, it can't really do any of that. so it works with the jawbone app right? pairs with your phone to hear all the information about how many steps you took how long you sent. but that is really it. the app is great but hardware is not doing enough. hard for me to recommend. gerri: what do you mean it is not doing enough? >> they have got the sensors in here. they're not tapping them just yet. the data is only does resting heart rate. at night it tells awe little bit more but during the day not telling you more than step count. gerri: this is expensive. >> it is $180. i can't recommend the up 3 but i am wearing up 2. three seemed excessive to wear on to your show. up2 is costs $99. basic fitness tracker. that is what people should be buying, a basic fitness tracker underneath $99.
5:25 pm
gerri: you're not paying too much for it. i agree with you. you think you make good points. you have got the apple watch on. >> i do have the watch on. gerri: you're thrilled with that? >> it really grown on me. i've been wearing it for about a month. at first i wasn't in love with it. it was very distracting. i figured out how to tame the thing. it's a great fitness tracker, i love to wear when i am working out. i think smartwatches will take bite out of high-end fitness space. $180 fitness tracker promises to do a lot. but iwatch does those things. jawbone app will work with the smartwatch. i see the smartwatch becoming what the iphone did, killing off these small little categories, fitness tracker being one of them. gerri: interesting. if you want get a smartwatch, screen, more advanced sensors, loads of fitness apps -- >> too many to count right now. gerri: a lot of non-fitness
5:26 pm
functionality. you say instead if you want basic fitness tracking one week of battery life, spend less than 100 bucks fitness band you want? that is what you're weighing in here? >> exactly. people who want to dip the toe in the water. something $100 or less. 50 bucks for really great app is a great deal. see if you like it. then step up to a smartwatch. apple watch will only get better in a year or two. wait until then. gerri: thanks for coming on the show. hope you come back soon. >> i will. gerri: programing note all this week it is sharp teeth week on "strange inheritance." at 9:00 p.m. eastern a man inherit as barren portion of his parents montana ranch. he fails to make a living until he finds valuable dinosaur fossils on there. take a look. >> a montana cowboy inherit as barren patch of prairie. >> this place isn't big enough to starve to death on. >> beneath the parched soil he finds prehistoric treasure.
5:27 pm
>> this is one of the most important discoveries in this century. >> i have a year to try to see if i can survive with the ranch and selling dinosaur fossils. >> this is jawbone to a tyrannosaurus rex i found. >> will this lead him to a boom. >> whoo. >> or a bust. >> lightning doesn't strike the same place very often. maybe never. ♪ gerri: watch sharp teeth week all this week on "strange inheritance," monday through friday on the fox business network. later in the show did this big sports weekend live up to the hype or was it a big let down? see how chrysler offers workers free ride to college but is there a catch? we'll break down the details coming up. ♪

5:31 pm
chrysler offering workers a free ride to college but time to look at other stories in the news. one of the two gunman shot to death had grabbed the fbi's attention before elton simpson was found guilty of making false statements about going to system back in 2010, and credits a traffic cop for stopping the gunman. according to a new poll, er investigators are on the rise despite the fact obama would lower emergency room visitors, physicians say they've seen a surge since obamacare took effect. one big reasoner? there aren't enough primary care to help all the patients. and mcdonald's launching a delivery service in new york city. starting today they'll be able to order anything from the menu including case icy cream cones for delivery.
5:32 pm
and up for the first time in eight months and better than expected earnings reports giving stocks a boost. and those are some of the stories in the news tonight. and dealership workers a free ride to college. the automaker covering the cost of college degrees for those working at chrysler, jeep dodge ram truck and fiat dealerships. they won't have to spend a dime of their own money. here with me now is author of the prinston reviews cal great to have you here. how does this thing work? >> well, this works that the dealers have to sign up and play a slight fee regardless of the number of employees that work there that would be covered under the plan, and then chrysler is going to kick in some money as well. so these employees are not going to have to pay anything up front at all to go to school to get their degree. so chrysler -- >> got it. so the students not paying a dime.
5:33 pm
this is good news for them. do we know what the breakout is? dealership to fiat chrysler? >> that hasn't been disclosed strayer university is the online for profit institution partnering with this, how much they're actually going to be getting from chrysler, i imagine there's discount for volume. >> so both online and before this accident and motor how would you rate the job it does as a educator. >> they haven't had any bad press about marketing schemes other problems like some of the other for profits have had that we've heard in the news recently. so they're actually having a pretty good reputation for that -- for the students. but this is a good deal of course always paying for college. better off than borrow. >> yeah. >> they're using somebody else's money. it's always greatly to do that to help pay for college . >> so let me tell you. a four-year degree will cost you about $42,000.
5:34 pm
so this is free money for the people who want to do it, what's the motivation for the company to get involved in this? >> they're looking for retaining workers, this is a very good incentive for individuals individuals where parents aren't going to pay for job and they need to get a job and the competition in the jobs market have those sales there's 17% growth expected in number of sales jobs needed, so they're viewing that this is a way to attract talent. they're probably going to go in part-time that means they're going to be there a number of years and that will cut down on their training costs . >> how had this compare to starbucks because they're essentially doing the same thing. >> the starbucks plan is a tuition reimbursement plan that you have to pay up for the courses up front and then get reimbursed, that's a different incentive because the average makes about 10, $11 an hour, so they might not be able to come up with the up
5:35 pm
front cost. also with starbucks given that lower earnings that they make, the average car salesman makes about 70 79,000 a year. those starbucks employees can for the program, and that might not be as much of a cost as chrysler. >> great to have you on the show, cal. thanks no coming in. and challenge up next we're kicks off our week long special to the spring real estate market. are you buying or selling your home? what do you need to know? our panel of experts are here with the top advice. and here's the consumer gauge with the numbers that meanth most to you.
5:36 pm
the real question that needs to be asked is "what is it that we can do that is impactful?" what the cloud enables is computing to empower cancer researchers. it used to take two weeks to sequence and analyze a genome; with the microsoft cloud we can analyze 100 per day. whatever i can do to help compute a cure for cancer, that's what i'd like to do.
5:39 pm
tonight the willis report is kicking off a special users guy guide to the spring real estate market. whether you're trying to buy list your home, or upgrade your living space. we have a whole week's worth of expert advice. tomorrow on insiders tips to snagging a mortgage, and later in the week, hdtv mike aubrey is here, but tonight we're kicking things off with a roundtable of experts on today's housing recovery, mark rick executive trice vise president of aucti and fox business sherrill, welcome to all of you great to have you here. rick, i'm going to start with you, a lot of you say the market's on fire. it's going gangbusters out there. you are a little bit more cautious. why? >> i think we're going to see a good spring selling season. i don't think we're going to see a huge boom in housing over the course of the next
5:40 pm
few months. we have some demand, but when all the dust settles had year, we're going to see numbers similar to 2014. okay. but not great . >> what's the reason behind that? i hear a lot of people who is they don't have the income to afford a down payment. are people cash strapped. >> i think part of the problem is that people needing the money to come up with a down payment, even with these some of these low down payment plans available. we've seen the home prices go up over the last few years. we haven't seen wage growth in general keep up with that, and it's harder to get a loan. you have low inventory relatively week demand, you have tight credit. all of that suggestions you're not going to have a big increase in home sales . >> now mark, you disagree, you think we're at the boom. why? >> well, i don't know about a precipice of a boom, but we have to seget the market, the
5:41 pm
first home buyer having enough money for a down payment et cetera but most of the market is existing homeowners, and they're not bringing their homes to market, they're not lifting it on the supply side because they have insufficient equity and that's restraining the demand. but it's good news that it's rising less and less quickly. so the relationship of growing income to growing house prices isn't going to get too much further out of whack. >> we have a long way to go here. what do you think in the marketplace. >> yeah. i really talk to the focus at zillo quite often and their market announcement is really realistic, they say local and of course it is. and the question i always get is best cities i should buy or sell in. they came up with a list and i want to tell you the first top five sellers market. the dynamics are changing a little bit san francisco
5:42 pm
denver seattle for selling in this markets. this bottom three three four five, denver, seattle and dallas, that's a turn around. this there used to be a lot of great deals, that is changing. and then on the buy side if you're going to buy somewhere this is even better. philadelphia for buyers is still number one. you know obviously that's going to be in a neighborhood situation chicago, cleveland miami and miami i think is interesting -- >> that's surprising. >> all right. surprised me too because you still have a lot of surplus in inventory in particular. and 85% of the market is existing home sales and that's the big key for this market as existing home sells. you've got to get the millennials into this existing homes so that the boomers can get out and downsize. but until that we get shift happening in a meaningful way you're not going to see that housing recovery, and it's better. it's really changing pretty
5:43 pm
quickly. >> i agree. well, i think you're making a good point here and i want to ask the entire panel out here. what is the advice who my want to get in or sell, i i know a lot of people would like to unload that ball and chain. what do you tell them? >> i think now is a good time to be a seller. i think in most of the country it's a seller's market because as mark pointed out a few minutes ago there's not simply enough involuntary to meet current demand. so it's a good seller's market, but don't get too greedy. just because there's not a lot of inventory doesn't mean people are going to over pay. first get your financial house in order before you go buy a house to live in. and don't over pay. don't get sucked into that trap of getting into a bidding war and over paying for that asset . >> all right mark to you because you've had some interesting numbers people who were under water. we've seen that grow a little bit. what would you tell people who were just wanting to sell that
5:44 pm
house, get the best price they can, what do they need to know right now? >> i think rick is very good advice in terms of pricing your home for sale. the point is for first time homebuyers access to credit it key. to bring this millennials into the market, severing unaffordable if you can't get a loan, so first and for most, being able to qualify for a loan and once you do that, looking at your circumstances and buying smartly. i think you have to get away from what happened in the housing bubble when we were thinking -- >> right. >> as a financial investment. now it's about shelter over your head most importantly . >> and let me tell you though, here's how i feel. if i'm not making money on this thing and i'm spending a third of my income on it, i'm not going to be happy. it has been to provide a bang to the bunch. sherrill your advice. >> i believe in sweat equity, and we really have seen it. there's still a little bit of a glut in some key markets don't be afraid to go in and
5:45 pm
