a vaccine passport all of this and how you guess you can earn a 6 figure salary by hanging out at the beach all day all of this and more on today's news you choose right here on our to america my . thank you for joining us today i am scott e-mail hughes and cash is king these days especially if you are looking for a new place to live but as prices continue to rise you might need to have more of it home prices are rising at the fastest pace in 15 years and the s. and p. a core logic a shiller index is seeing the highest rises since february 2006 so is this good news or warning signs for a crash reminiscent of 2008 to help us decide we bring in jason hartman president of the empowered investor network thank you for joining me jason. it's my pleasure ok so it is definitely
1:33 am
a seller's market but what do these signs in the housing arena actually tell you. well that's a very interesting question well everybody is worried about prices being too high they really need to evaluate the comparison and ask themselves the question compared to what if you compare it to the price of the home based on the s. and p. 500 index houses have actually gotten cheaper in the past 1520 years if you compare it based on a monthly payment basis houses are cheaper than they were 14 years ago in 2006. right before the great recession so. when you look at the sticker price of the overall house yes prices do seem high but when you look at the monthly payment and when you compare it to other things and when you adjust for interest rates and inflation prices are actually still amazingly pretty reasonable they're not that
1:34 am
high yet i like that i used to be higher they you thought you know i like it every time that they have like look at how much money i get for my health and my husband always reminds us but where we got to move you have to purchase the house to not necessarily a win win situation and that being said i have to ask you you know due to this crisis that we've just lived through do you think more people are actually leaving city life and rushing to the suburbs to live mainly due to lock down for more probably they actually want more space now that they've had to live the last year with their families in a 2 bedroom apartment do you think that could also be causing a lot of the drive for houses within basically outside of major city. absolutely we call this the suburban tsunami as people were fleeing large cities they were already leaving because these cities tend to be business unfriendly they tend to have the west the story and the governments and they have very high taxes so people were already leaving these places but cove it definitely accelerated that trend
1:35 am
there's absolutely no question about it and i think that's why this is becoming such an intimate and market you have people who are selling their to better townhouses in downtown unable to vie and they're getting a much larger health outside but then i have to wonder about the other investors those hedge but he feel like right now they are putting their money and a home that investment property versus the stock market right now well i don't know what they're doing so much on the stock market sign outside their certainly into stocks and doing equities and so forth but coming out of the great recession we saw a historic move by institutional investors to buy a single thing only residence or residential housing where is the floor these institutional investors bought large apartment complexes they are office space they bought retail centers and they've been keenly interested in housing for the past 10 to 12 years and that trend also has gained even more interest due to the pandemic
1:36 am
well and what would you tell your clients right now they're coming to fail kay is it worth are right now can i get a good deal anywhere or should i just save my dollars and just wait our house how thought of cautious are you being with your investors. well you know it depends where there are really 3 types of markets in the country or in the entire world linear markets cyclical markets and hybrid markets so we need inexpensive linear markets in other words where prices just sort of chug along appreciate slowly and always have. cash flows very good we work with investors we help them build our portfolios of real estate nationwide in those markets the prices are still very reasonable even when you just look at the price of not the payment not comparing it with the s. and p. the prices are still very reasonable in those markets but in the cyclical markets the ones that tend to get all the media attention on the west coast in the
1:37 am
northeast in these expensive markets even south florida near where i live those markets i would say are very much on the verge of being overvalued if not overvalued already so it would be very cautious in cyclical markets in the truth the sort of high flying markets and i would be very bullish in the linear markets that we recommend you know even in the business friendly states in the landlord friendly steeds those markets are still quite healthy well and i think everybody if watching for any red flags i mean we all thought of ever what a lot what life is like leading up to 2008 and we realize a lot of it started with housing within the 1st 5 that we thought that everything was going to come crashing down thank you as so much for joining i thank you for keeping your eye on the market my pleasure. now i want to talk about a story which is causing much thanks from parents in california you know you've heard about those surges at the border that are happening well it actually looks
1:38 am
like right now the children of school age will be getting in person instruction before the existing students who already reside in the san diego school system they're not the only ones because we're going to go up north where marin county in an open id there is a new program which empowers poor families with basically unconditional cash for 9 months grants and they have decided exclude those who qualify the program actually based on race and i thought the 14th amendment eliminated that but we got to give the 360 view to what is going on in california they bring in democratic strategist or an ed martin phyllis shapely ziegel thank you so much for joining al and you're back for day 2 thank you so much we had a great conversation yesterday but that's why i know that you know dealing with what is going on the board is probably the best in your wheel house on this one let's start with what is going on san diego do you think it's actually fair for these parents whose kids have been kept out of school the past year they feel like they obviously have not done as well as teachers would have done for migrant children to be actually getting in person learning before the actual students
1:39 am
taxpayers students are getting that option as well. sure and so i don't know if it's about fear i think it's about the process that we're in because the children that we're talking about are unaccompanied children so they're not in the same category as the other children that are living in households although their own children schools and teachers are teaching these kids are doing it well and fairly to address a concern making sure they're acclimated so it's not exactly the same it's not apples to apples ok so ed is it apples to apples because like i said it's got a lot of parents are pretty upset on this because they said they've been at home they know their children already a year behind basically what private education is their concern and now they're finding out what is the difference between a hispanic child and it will say it also is between the 2 i don't understand why one can gather and one can't. well scott it's not apples to apples i would say it's americans to not americans and the problem is that we're in a in about a 50 to 60 year trajectory of policy makers and judges changing our laws you know
1:40 am
there is a law on the books from the early 1980 s. i think it's plyler veto that said that illegal alien children are a must be admitted must be admitted to our schools and we must pay for their education in 1902 that was a $5.00 to $4.00 decision by the liberal court it was insane then it's insane now it should be reversed it should be reversed by law as well as by judicial fiat but we have a problem in this country because the arc of the immigration move men and you know my colleague is right this is the process that the biden the strace who welcomes unaccompanied minors flowing into our country then we are required to take care of them we shouldn't be we should absolutely positively send all these kids back we should take care of our kids 1st the reason why donald trump succeeded in 16 with the america 1st initiative the notion was not just because he was persuasive it's because americans are sick of putting ourselves before other people love your
1:41 am
neighbor as yourself you have to love yourself 1st you can't stand your neighbor be for serve your neighbor it for you serve your own kids and san diego right now the people there are getting a firsthand look at a system that degrades americans in favor of foreigners that's a choice but it's one that the american people have rejected should reject and will reject and it's a disaster well but that's the thing adage you point out it is legal though that is how the law fans right now whether you like it or not taxpayer that must provide it so aland to that point right there do you think that this could be a good way to actually get the conversation open to open to schools and said yeah go with that actually kind of be a win win for both sides in this situation. right so so once again no doubt those downfalls and the laws of the law it is whether we like it or not that's what we're sort of procedure right now and children should not be. any political system because that's not humanitarian because in general but it had nothing to do with
1:42 am
the company and there are over 6 so we should not punish children or whatever happened around them the growth of it the circumstance would be conversation for i believe we can do both we can start addressing the needs of the margaret children who have not been seen in court so they are not legal at this point because they are going to school so there are we going to dress that as you would not call them illegal because until a court has decided what their routines are we can say here it is right there if you are undocumented at this point and then yes after that and this consideration is given by these teachers we can move towards opening schools that are process we can care about kidney disease heart disease and not say because you're focusing on getting a disease now you don't here are there's enough room for both solutions i like them all the testing but add back you know i do like that thought in that type of but unfortunately we're finding out we are saying and maybe you've seen that out with the cases you've seen how the numbers of sex trafficking that is going on within these crowds i'm really concerned about some of these kids my heart hurt for them
1:43 am
for what this journey has been for them to get to america but i don't know if we know so find a solution i do want to move up north and talk about what is going on and in oakland county right now you do have and we started out on this obviously very poor communities hit by the crowd of irony $500.00 a month for the next 9 months sounds like that would help but it's only available to people with dark skin and that's across the board the only ones you cannot get at are those of the caucasian race is that right is that fair. no of course not it's it's racist and it's bigoted and it's hateful and it's meant to divide us and the idea that elected officials are doing that and are now are being staying in offices and saying to me look i'm actually i'll get some common ground i'm actually for p. . people there were affected by this code pandemic getting direct payments i'm a republican conservative but i see that we have to do that it should be done based on need it should be de done based on poverty level it should be done based on race
1:44 am
or gender or anything else and the idea that they're doing this and with a straight face making it acceptable to publicly say it is insane i mean if this was done if we did this in the deep south and we said only the white people can get a payment because we don't think those people over there deserve it there were right to slee i would join in the in the protest that should throw everybody out of office but we have a nation right now where the signal is on on the other networks that are just pump and fake news you have van jones saying if the cop in minneapolis is not convicted the message will be that it's a fair game on black people this is insane that people in power are trying to race bait america into a race war and that's what this is so we should all condemn it and then we should say stop because a pandemic we should pay we should help people with direct payments i'm for that but i'm not for this racist hateful conduct it's a disaster and it's un-american so alan your response that i do think that possibly could divide that community that's already hurting even more. right so with the
1:45 am
good weather the by the community or not there are couple of things that are to factually talk about this is some one individual personal many and the government is putting them farther 1000 towards the need to they would have done for that community anyway and not that they're not doing for the other communities but this specific program is designed to see by people blacks or people of color in their community which may feel have been displaced because of their procedures in that area what is a local bank there are everywhere over just beyond you just in the bottom because the but it's my money and i'm giving out the issue here is a small part of the government playing it into their getting because they are you have assigned to the by possibility that are going to start sending people over to this program to get these grants or that the little bit convoluted makes a little bit more so by law so these address redress that need to be asked just like race for the race was much bigger than cope and that lasted for
1:46 am
a much longer time went over in a lot of communities that impacted a lot of individual and the spirit has shown it right early in poll between women between men between people of color consistently there between the words in the law we're not ever going to drift underlying issue and sort of make it right if the private system steps in and that we want to do to we want to administer to people through the government lawyer to get to the right neighborhood there really should be a problem well i think and this is a conversation that definitely we continue to have i just don't know if $9000.00 at one time is enough if that's really what they're trying to solve as ed allan thank you so much for joining us and thank you so after the break we're actually going to show you a way to aren't a whole lot of taxpayer dollars by also getting a great hand wealth i mean a really good tan and a lot of dollars. well
1:47 am
the pandemic no certain you know born is just lying to nationalities. ilsa market which we took a backseat. to succeed. should be. judged as coming very close is listening to the moment. we can do better we should be. everyone is contributing each of our own way but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever the challenges created with the response has been so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are indeed together.
1:48 am
well here though why dust off your dancing shoes and buy your tickets because the broadway is coming back but is it too soon and is it fair when so many other businesses in new york are still shut down stone joins us now to discuss sean thanks for joining us. of course ok so i'm actually very excited that broadway is planning on opening back up i had a great time actually the business is beginning to reopen to get at least from even a moral standpoint moral standpoint but considering new york city is still only allowed to be open to 50 percent capacity at restaurants and stores schools are still closed do you think this might be a little bit too early and should the mayor be focusing on the other elements before we even get to broadway. well i don't think it has to be a before or after conversation i mean we're still talking 6 months down the road
1:49 am
down the road with broadway and let's be honest no one really knows what's going to be coming in the next 6 months we have you have to be concerned as far as the covert vaccines experimental vaccine that's rolling out there's there's still cases of people getting cold but after the vaccine we don't really know what the situation's in a look like so i think it's difficult to prophesy and say definitively but i think as far as morale goes certainly what the mayor is looking to do is he's trying to get money right people go to new york to go to broadway they go there to be part of the energy and without broadway new york isn't quite the same town and that's and i can draw tourists an entire month of dollars lost so i don't think you can d. prioritize broadway in any way but i'm not so confident to say that i would say definitively by september you're going to see a large number of shows or people flocking to the theater well and it's not like something to stop at the next monday we're actually going to start up again we all know it's all there all ready to go i greet it definitely take the preparation but
1:50 am
a lot of this is coming from this idea of the passport or the fact thien passport that's being developed it's really coming out of new york do you think that this possibly is one thing being pushed out right now basically to think of i say listen because proper authorities say they're going to have to have strict restrictions to get in to their shows do you think that's why we're going to starting a lot of the entertainment in the kind of the more casual day to day event opening back up as sort of an authentic to get people to get vaccinated. yeah unfortunately i think that that is part of the ploy. sima krispy kreme is offering a free donuts no i think that there's a danger here where on one level you are constitutional issues around mandating it and so whether or not new york can ultimately force people to get the vaccine what they'll try to do is use private businesses and tech ticket sellers and what not to say well you'll have to get a vaccine passport or get a test you know in which case you can you know once you're test negative you can go to the show but you know again no this is not a this is infallible none of this is you know is perfected as far as you know we've
1:51 am
you know as far as germs you know work and these kind of things i just don't understand exactly. how they can ever until until we till we've gone psychologically beyond this notion of a pandemic i think they're trying to normalize this idea of just doing everything with a mask with a vaccine passport and perpetuating as long as possible so that's really to me the danger of using this sort of candy you know they say the carrot oh you can go back to the movie theater if you get your code vaccine or if you know if you comply i think it's very dangerous thing in other states i don't think we'll go along with it states like florida and others i think will be bastions of freedom comparison to new york and i think that's very thing allow people to travel to those areas right now you know you meant to krispy kreme i can understand the shine krispy kreme free down when they back think hard isn't it kind of it even more susceptible to people that are overweight obese i don't know of donut that was really the right method we need to be thin into america when they need actually getting more healthy lay out the donuts if you want to stay away from the cove it just saying sorry common sense
1:52 am
on that which you know i also know why we're talking about broadway now i hear fan there are 2 new shows coming out diana as well as one on game of the round you know do you actually think i mean i got it a little hard your hollywood side of you broadway is known for giving their audience this great performer great performance do you think that you know those 22 shows are going to be able to actually be made with already this great standing that the reputation the 2 groups have. oh well you know again it's difficult to know i mean a game of thrones it's already game of thrones already was a shakespearean experience i'm sure they can translate it nicely to the states diana i mean she's such an iconic figure no matter what you know the matter what they will be interest you know one of the thing want to point out is i think that you'll see more virtual experiences coming in with like the google glass concepts or the oculus concept of these virtual reality experiences that will 'd perhaps replace some of that need to go to the theatre if you don't want to have to comply with some of these standards or structure that's what failed to bring that up
1:53 am
because let's talk about some of the movies right now you know i just went this weekend for the 1st time it was a private that i was with people that i knew my family but all these movies right now over the last year have been made basically released on streaming services available on a household t.v. theatres are starting to open up again but do you think people are going to start opting more to stay at home in their own convenience with their own snack bar are we going to ever go back to where we were in the movie industry and how does that change the actual making of film and pushing out. well you know again if it did press it depresses the overall economics of the film industry right if people are not paying for you know for a theater experience and they're paying for the streamers and on the other hand you can maybe maybe say i want to level it's like it forces maybe more of the comic book movies the big blockbuster movies that we know you know the warner brothers and the paramount's and netflix and all these other companies and business will know that they have a stable audience that's you know basically demands it but it's like you lose that
1:54 am
authenticity of those experiences where you know the moonlights of the world i'm just getting one example of a hit indie film that norwood expected to be a hit and that can that type of film succeed when you have such a streamer based you know content looking for a wider audience is and how you know it's succeeding in this type of climate i don't know that's that's it we have to wait and see what the streaming service it seems like more of a quantity versus quality let's get as much as we can out there and it doesn't matter where they're playing the quality and the actual production of the film we will think johnstone always a joy to talk with you you know. well we're going to go back to california because when you think of it you think of a gorgeous coastline down the beaches and with the exception of the glamorous character that from the show baywatch one would think that lifeguards actually just make a modest pay but guess what arty correspondent has die again as some rather shocking information to share might be
1:55 am
a career change up. well lifeguards do restore lives according to newly released public information some are certainly getting compensated for it most of it and over time there are some preconceived notions of a career lifeguard some of those include it in less than prestigious but that could be changing all some view it as a great low paying summer job for teenagers formation movies from 2019 paints quite a different picture the assistant lifeguard chief making over 390000 dollars in 2018 the captain just behind him made over $130000.00 in overtime pay alone but if you thought lifeguards were living the largest they should have behind what firefighters made the top honor in $21000.00 don thompson makes a salary of just over $125000.00 a year but he reportedly made more than $360000.00 in overtime pay alone bringing his annual income for that year to more than 575000 so paramedics in california are also able to make up for the high cost of living and 21000
1:56 am
a fire captain paramedic and else to read oh started with a salary of $168000.00 he made almost as much an overtime a whopping one 150000 total in his annual salary 421002441000 gregory allen ever donned a beach made just over $87000.00 a year in 2019 with making over 200000 in overtime alone he took home over $420000.00 we still haven't seen the top honors for city workers in 20 minutes when the santa clara police chief made just over $223000.00 with over 360000 in other pay and 182000 in benefits he's listed as making a total of $760000.00 for the year in 2018 and her most a beach police officer making $22000.00 a year managed to receive 5 126000 in other pay and 185000 in benefits totaling his annual wages for the year to be over $733000.00 now not all official figure.
1:57 am
has had been released for 2020 but we do know that at least $1000.00 los angeles police department employees have made over $200000.00 for the year and we also know that the fire captain in los angeles as well made $585000.00 for the year reporting for news fuse houston sweets. well i have to say add a couple more zeros on that you might actually make the amount of the politicians that appoint them to those positions but if anybody is making it you know so some good dollars and i'm glad that it's the people that are trying to keep us safe especially after the year we've had that being said i'm not going be changing my career anytime soon and it's because my skin burns really easy these days and that's all for today show i hope you don't do a career change but if you do make sure that you continue to watch news right here on our to america and for this show one more make sure you download the one of about t.v.'s you can get it on the app for android device and we're going to continue the conversation on twitter at. tech team n.v.h. how they want to thank you for watching and we will later have
1:58 am
a great. all of the information in the world when you put it together and process the final thing is li it adds up to 0 it adds up to nothing all the a loser and a differentiation will be obliterated the illusion of making a profit will be obliterated because we're entering into a period of the singularity. in the 1920 s. and thirty's several 100 african-americans moved to the soviet union and many of their descendants still live in russia. owing at the most because they know no rush
1:59 am
but us the up most of us have got ways to go on things in your bios at their church . back home but i can merican suffered from racism and a complete lack of prospects. in the real. one by elsa store on her by doing. so they decided to leave everything behind and start a new life in a country about which they knew almost nothing at all some of the rear groups who were to through during the night. found great crowds. to moulay a golf you were going to call clues you. know almost 100 years later the history is repeating itself my great grandfather george time he went to russia. probable worst time to go anywhere why not me. when i come here.
2:00 am
to. this it gets sucked it up this it did they did me i know they did every stage of this type. we might say to ourselves that we could have done better that we made mistakes this is true. stop admission of failures in the handling of the covert crisis by the french president as the country's told news 100000 ground is forced to impose a national long. also had fears of a nursing exodus in the u.k. as a poll reveals one in 4 n.h.s. work is more likely to quit now than in 2020 with many citing exhaustion from the pandemic we speak to one british. with pets need.
