>> let me begin with you, jerry, if i might. this overtime threshold has been raised once as i understand it since 1975. and the president's plan to raise it to about $50,400, would take it, according to my research back in inflation adjusted terms to the level that obtained in 1975. do you oppose any increase in that overtime threshold or just one as large as this one? >> well the administration didn't ask us if we posed any. they just imposed over 100% increase in one fell swoop. >> i'm asking you, do you oppose any increase? >> no i don't think we oppose any increase. we're reasonable. >> you think this is too big? >> it's too big and moreover applies to small businesses just coming out of a depression and as people are just starting to make money, you talked about incomes being frozen. in the home building sector they haven't been frozen they have been going down and you're putting the brakes on a very

fragile home building recovery. >> what about that secretary rice? there are a lot of small businesses struggling just to you know come out of an economic slump that was quite severe. there are other businesses that are not hiring. is this the right time to put this size of an increase in place to phase it in? >> yeah. this is not an increase in wages overall. this isn't even an increase in the minimum wage. this is an increase in overtime pay. the percentage of workers qualified for overtime. if an employer doesn't want to offer overtime the employer doesn't have to. the employer can simply hire additional workers for 40 hours a week without any overtime. the point is if we have an overtime rule and we've had it on the books in america since 1938 a 40-hour work week with time and a half for overtime we should at least have an overtime rule that matches, at the very least, what we had in 1975. >> you're not suggesting, mr. rice that this would not increase the employment costs

one way or another for many businesses are you? >> it could increase employment costs if a business wanted to keep people on overtime and not hire additional people for under 40 hours a week. all i'm saying is a business that really feels that it doesn't want to pay overtime has an option and that option is to bring on more workers and have them work 40 hours a week and not have anybody work for overtime. >> what about that mr. howard? that sounds reasonable. it's not an increase in minimum wage or overall wages. >> i completely disagree with the secretary. right now there is a shortage of labor in the home building sector. we're having trouble finding people to come in and work 40 hours a week and for him to suggest we hire more people that's going to add to the costs and add to housing. the workers just aren't there right now. >> mr. rice? >> it's one of the things that the employer does an employer

offers more wages in order to attract more workers. that's economics 101. what we want in this country are not only jobs we want good jobs and american workers have suffered for years as pay has actually deteriorated for most workers, in terms of adjusted for inflation. mr. howard? >> i would suggest that jobs in the construction sector are good jobs. also i would suggest to the secretary that training for a carpenter, hvac person even a framing carpenter, takes up to 18 months. it's naive to think we can go out there and hire these people. they have to be trained during the depression in our industry. many many millions of laborers left the sector. they just don't magically reappear. and to say we can go out and hire more people is naive and it's dangerous if you want a strong economic recovery in the housing sector. >> gentlemen, we have to leave it there. thank you very much both of you, for joining us tonight. i'm sure the debate will continue.

robert rice jerry howard. thank you. >> thank you. >> coming up don't have a 401(k)? don't worry. there are other ways to build a nest egg and we'll show you how coming up. and here's a look at what is for tomorrow. the adp report will offer a read on the health of private

employment. also on the data front, international trade, an important economic indicator and weekly mortgage applications figures are out. and that is what to watch for on wednesday. >> and baby boomers have too much risk in their retirement portfolio, so says a recent study by fidelity which found that many older 401(k) account holders, like me had higher acquisition to equity than their age. many don't regularly rebalance their portfolios. >> but what if you're one of the 77 million u.s. workers who don't even have a 401(k) or an employer-sponsored employer-sponsored retirement plan. fear not. what do you have to do to secure your retirement income if you don't have that pension plan the 401(k)? >> reporter: that's almost half of workers. there are other ways to save that you should know about and that's starting with an i.r.a. an individual retirement account

is the best way to start saving. a traditional or a roth i.r.a. and the i.r.a. yes, does not allow you to save as much as a 401(k) with i this year you can save up to $18,000, but it's a place to start and you get the tax advantages that you would get with a traditional 401(k) or roth or 401(k) in that. you can have it tax deferred. >> what if i'm self-employed? >> the great news there is you have more ways to save a lot more money. you have choices which most choose between a s.e.p. i.r.a. and save up to $53,000 in these accounts. what they are really looking at -- >> annually? >> you can put that in annually. that's about 25% of your earnings. self-employment income that you're able to put away. it's part 401(k) and a s.e.p. i.r.a. and there may be cash contributions if 50 or

older. you could potentially put in more money. the other thing to think about is a simple i.r.a. but $12,500 -- >> it's something, right? >> right. >> there are tax advantages to all of those accounts. outside of tax advantage accounts what do you think about? >> very important if you're a high earner. you really want to think about the number that you want to save the percentage which should be 10 to 20% of your income. and so you're going to have a taxable account and you won't have the tax savings but you'll have a nextst egg. think about things that are important in terms of growth. not so much having all of your money in equities but having a diversified portfolio. >> fund the tax-exempt accounts first? >> yes. they should first go into those. >> thank you, sharon. >> thank you. the entrepreneurial spirit was alive and well at the white house today.

start-up founders from all walks of life made their way to the nation's capital and made their first at the demo day. kate rogers reports and shows us what innovations were there. >> i started when i was 9 years old and because i really liked and couldn't find anything that fit my style and personality. so i started making my own. >> reporter: mosia has been on shark tank and steve harvey show but today his work was on display at the white house. the 13-year-old is founder of a bow tie company based in memphis, tennessee. he's part of a group of some 90 entrepreneurs from around the country invited to partake in the white house's first ever demo day. >> i feel great being here showing the bow ties to my president and spreading my business. >> reporter: also on hand were sisters betsy and emily to demo their business sort and plow. they grew up in a military

family and are now repurposing military surplus into handbags. >> we've repurposed a total of 30,000 pounds of military surplus, have supported 38 veteran jobs and donating 10% of our profits back to organizations that support veterans for the past two years. >> reporter: one of the pillars is the white house that kicks off the event by announcing a slew of initiatives. among them commitments by venture capitalists as well as from tech giants like google and facebook to invest in more women and underrepresented minorities. president obama stopped by the event to see what they had on display. >> we've got to make sure that everybody is getting a fair shot. it might be named stephanie or esteban. they might never step foot in silicon valley. we've got to unleash the full potential of every american not leave more than half the team on

the bench. >> reporter: the hope is that no matter who you are or where you are from the idea of one day becoming your own boss is an attainable dream. for "nightly business report," in washington i'm kate rogers. >> i want him to come and teach me how to tie a bow tie. i have tried with youtube and everything. we'll have him on. >> absolutely. all right. that's a great story to end "nightly business report" for tonight. i'm sue herera. thanks for joining us. >> and i'm tyler mathisen. have a great evening, everybody and we'll see you tomorrow.
