Real Wealth Real Health

An in-depth discussion around the history of Boom & Bust Economic Cycles, the role of Real Estate in the cycle, and the leading indicators that signal where we are in the process.

Returning to the topic of Economics, this episode of Real Wealth, Real Health features the brilliant Akhil Patel, Director at Property Share Economics. Akhil has professional experience in audit, central government, and international banking; and has worked on a range of issues from reviewing large infrastructure Public-Private partnerships (PPP) deals to helping establish the UK’s International Climate Fund. In this incredibly informative episode, we explore the concept of the 18-year Boom & Bust economic cycle, and how it is intertwined with the world of Real Estate. We learn how Akhil first became interested in the subject, and the key resources anyone can use to learn more.

During the conversation, we examine the history of Boom & Bust economic cycles, and how best one can wield this knowledge to equip themselves for the next stage. We speak about the different indicators and signs that a cycle shift is underway, peaking, or ending, and what investors can do to protect themselves from the downside. This includes exploring some common pitfalls made in the exuberance of a Boom, and the behaviors that set businesses & households up to bear the brunt of the Bust. In addition to learning about the history and features of the 18-Year cycle, we also discuss practical measures for individuals and businesses to insulate themselves from the downside risks of recessionary phases.

Finally, our detailed conversation ends with key tidbits from other Economic Cycles to watch out for, how different countries see similar cycles, and what we all can learn to adapt to these economic trends. As always, we also glean Akhil’s personal definition of wealth, and how he views a successful life beyond maximizing financial returns.

In the inaugural episode of 2021, we welcome Hunter Thompson, founder of Asym Capital and Managing Principal at Cash Flow Connections to speak about the commercial real estate landscape in 2021 and beyond.

Hunter has long been focused on living an entrepreneurial lifestyle where he could be his own boss, set his own hours, and most importantly, pursue the opportunities that he finds interesting. Hunter’s early career started with him pursuing education and coaching online to learn to play Professional Poker, where he found enough success to start investing in people, businesses, and eventually Real Estate. Hunter quickly learned that the risk assessment skills he learned in poker translated very well to evaluating investment opportunities, and shares with us some simple, yet brilliant insights into how these seemingly disparate disciplines have worked to help advance his career as an entrepreneur.

In our thought-provoking discussion surrounding the current and future state of Commercial Real Estate, Hunter talks to us about the way he thinks about investing today, particularly in a post-Covid environment. We discuss the changes to various commercial real estate sectors that are likely to arrive, and the impact they might have on operations. We also talk about the diligence, underwriting, and monitoring it takes to stay on top of investments, and why it is important to know what you are getting into when establishing a source of Passive Income. Finally, we spend some time highlighting the Intelligent Investor Real Estate Conference, a 3-day, newly virtual, investor conference, presented by Asym Capital & For Investors By Investors. The conference provides exciting educational content and will foster an environment where meaningful, lifelong professional relationships can be made.

Key Insights:

· How the risk-assessment skills acquired in a Professional Poker career can apply in evaluating investment fundamentals

· Hypothesizing on the many ways Covid-19 and the resulting economic shutdowns will affect the economy, and how that information can inform future investment decisions

· Assessing the future of various Commercial Real Estate sectors, and how well they might perform in a post-Covid environment

· Dispelling the myths about Passive Investing, especially in Real Estate, and understanding the amount of detailed work it takes to be successful

· Why Organizational Structure and proper incentive alignment work together to ensure optimal cooperation and effort from relevant parties in executing a Commercial Real Estate project
