Now, you know, with the pandemic, shopping was off tremendously. Now what’s happened is that as things get better in the economy, as people start to spend money, they compare things to 2020 and 2021. Well, you really can’t do that because people were locked down, people didn’t have work, things like that. Well, now we just got the warning for the shopping season, the holiday shopping season. You can sit there and say, wow Dan, you’re talking about this in September. No, this is the sign of the times with the economy. It’s this simple.

Hey, listen, we’re not going to have a good shopping season and it’s going to be off compared to 2018. 2018, well that was the last year we had real prosperity when you think about it. So to sit there and talk about how 2018 was somehow a bad year, a good year is crazy. Okay, so 2019 things were building up, 2020 all hell broke loose, you know, and you know the the rest of it from there. So let’s give you guys this little view for a second. Now, they are talking about sales being off and they’re gonna go up this year but they’re only gonna go up 2% as compared to last year, they went up 4.3%.

Last year was a spending boom. Now, here is the thing, the consumer is tapped out right now. Consumers have no money, they just don’t. Credit cards are tapped, everybody is completely spent and what you have is you have a consumer that is just basically out of gas. They’re not working as much, people are getting laid off, people aren’t getting the hours and it is crazy. Think about this, you have the world competing for less hours. I have so many people that are writing me, telling me about different places that they work at that, Dan, we’re only getting 30 hours a week.

Dan, we’re not getting a full-time wage right now and the reason for that is that it’s making it so that they don’t have to pay people, you know, benefits, they don’t have to one thing after another to remind everybody of how bad it is. Now, all you have to do is look at yourself and realize that shopping is bad. You know, there is a Whole Foods in Tustin, California that I like to shop, it’s in a place called the District and the reason why I like to shop there is they have seven restaurants in this one store.

They’ve got a smoker, they’ve got full produce section, but they have everything, organic and regular and all that stuff, but they have heads of the departments, so if you go to get Mexican food, they’ve got somebody there to talk, you can ask questions about the Mexican food, the sushi and the Japanese food, you know, ramen, all that stuff, they’ve got somebody that you can talk to about that stuff. It is absolutely amazing. Is it expensive? Yes, it’s outrageous and I wouldn’t shop there on a regular basis because of how bad it is and the thing about that place is the value of going there is the fact that you have, you know, like the smoker, like they’ll smoke briskets every day, so if you want this much, you know, brisket for a single man, you can go get it.

I can go get chicken that’s already been cooked for Rosie, things like that, it’s just fantastic, okay, but Dawn sent me this and Dawn contributes a lot, but she sent me this, look, you can save 5% and it’s so outrageous that it’s not saving money. It’s, hey, things are marked at 25% but we’re gonna knock off 5% for you. People are fed up with shopping like this and what you’re going to see this holiday season is you’re going to see less variety, you’re gonna see when it comes to the holidays themselves.

Let’s start with Halloween. Yes, it’s next month, but in July, places like Home Depot had their holiday gear out and they started to put Halloween stuff out. Now talking to the managers at Staples, Walmart, and the Home Depot, they all told me the same thing, there’s gonna be less supply of this this year. If you want it, buy it now. All three said the same thing because you’re going to see tremendous markdowns if stuff is left but they’re gonna have basically about 30% of what they’ve had in the past. You’re going to see this with the Black Friday deals too because last time with Black Friday it was no big deal.

Walmart a year ago at this time when I started talking to these guys, they’re like we’re doing nothing special. We’re not worried about extra staff, we’re not the store, it’s just gonna sell out and it’s gonna be no big deal. Now back in the day, 2018, let’s go back to that year, my daughter was reminding me of how hey let’s on Black Friday or I’m pardon me Thanksgiving night, hey let’s go down to Walmart and see how crazy it is. We went to the Walmart in Irvine, California and there was not a line out the door and then when you walked in there was a line through the store of people shopping and the crazy thing about this is that they were waiting for pallets of TVs and different discount items that are no longer going to be there.

You’re not going to have it. People don’t have the money to shop like this. Okay thank you, they’re kicking me out of the pool area. Okay so with that being said you’ve got, I’m just gonna walk back up okay? I’m gonna walk back up thanks. Okay you got it. So I’m at Green Valley Ranch. It’s beautiful but anyways the whole thing is there’s going to be less, there’s going to be less demand. People have less money and what this does by giving us this warning now, what it does is that it’s going to be when it’s a shock to the system, when sales are completely off, then you can’t sit there and say oh my gosh who knew that it was going to be this bad? We all knew it was going to be this bad.

We talked about it in September about how bad shopping is going to be but when you talk about a trillion dollars worth of shopping, that’s still a tremendous amount of money. The problem with it is that people don’t need crap. Don’t waste your money on things that people don’t need. The best gifts are thoughtful gifts. Don’t spend money that you don’t have. Don’t borrow yourself into a gift. I’m telling you it’s going to be a bleak 2025 and you have to be ready for this and the thing that people don’t understand is as we get warnings like this and as you talk to people that work at places like that let’s face it guys it is absolutely going to be a completely off year.

It really is and you know and I found another article talking about how you’ve got different things that are affecting it. Yeah the Olympics affected it. Did you guys change your shopping habits? Did you not go out to eat because of the Olympics? Who cares about the Olympics? That was an absolute joke. I mean it didn’t didn’t affect my life at all. I’m glad it was over with. Oh okay we can get back to regular TV. So with that being said that’s what you have to look at. Now the next thing is the election.

You’re going to have the election affect everything. That I believe. I believe that people are kind of interested in this right now over other times of the year. So with that being said you know get yourself ready. If you want something they’re going to have less of it. The Staples manager said if we would normally have 24 computers we’re going to get six. Same thing was said at Walmart. If you want it get it. Now my philosophy also is that if you’re going to go out and buy yourself something research it and get the best deal possible.

But this is going to be bad and this is the thing is if you’re selling anything and you’re relying oh my gosh Black Friday is going to save us not going to save anybody this year. So get ready for that. Let’s talk about our sponsor Native Path. Heart disease, blood clots, strokes, kidney failure. These are all warning signs on the side of an ibuprofen bottle.

We’ve all seen those commercials on TV about how there is identity theft with people that own properties and houses and people put deeds on houses that they’re not supposed to. How about this one? There is a guy Craig Adams that lives in the Raleigh, North Carolina area and this man has a mansion 8,300 square feet. Huge okay. It’s worth 4.25 million dollars and he found out recently he’s a dentist very successful that Don Magnum had transferred the title into her name and with that transfer she’s now selling the house.

So the house that the guy lives in is beautiful mansion he’s trying to get in his name. The only problem is he does not know this woman. This is that just like that commercial you seen on TV where you sit there and you go wait a second how can somebody do this? They did it to this guy. Read the New York Post story below because it is crazy. They just took this guy’s home and stole it and then listed it as if it was her own. Now who’s the real estate agent? The listing on this one.

Let’s go sue that person. Here is the thing. I am telling you there is a world of wussies. See I can’t say certain things on this channel that I am telling you I would show up at that broker’s office with Big Ed and Lars Lewis and you’d have a situation going on that I would want to explain to me on who Don Magnum was. So that’s me okay. But you decide what you think should happen with this situation. I mean it is crazy that we’re seeing all this fraud get perpetrated over and over again and we’re not supposed to question it in any way shape or form.

So I can’t wait to send in this article just to say hey did you know number one is Plymouth Rock Insurance Company. You can read the list.

I don’t want to go through the whole list with you guys. Will there be a half point interest rate cut? Who cares? Who cares? Is this going to make you spend more money? Is it going to give you more money in your pocket so that you can go out and you can live comfortably? No no it’s not. Just make it a one point percentage point drop and will this affect the stock market? Experts say things are cooked in and experts say that no it’s going to make things a living hell.

So we’ll see we’ll see. But again remember this you have an economy that’s completely upside down. You have an economy that people are capped out. People are not going out. You’ve got a resort here.
