The Cardone Zone

Get insane with money. Grant was labeled when he was younger as problematic, but he just didn't have attention on the right things. You need to have your attention on money. We live on an economic planet. Try going 24 hours without thinking about or using money. It's impossible. Everything you do costs money. A bag of food at Whole Foods costs $80. You have to fund your activities. If you don't get maniacal with your money, you won't have money. Create the economy you deserve. The word economy originally came from the management of a household. You have to have money to take care of those you love. If you have a shortage, start paying attention to it. For those who don't like maniacs, they say things like "Slow down", "don't toot your own horn", "take it easy"—these are all sayings from people who are against maniacs and don't have money. You need to be a maniac, and that requires you to get obsessed.

In this edition of the Cardone Zone Grant Cardone tells you to GET RICH. Every Friday he gets you in HIS zone and today he tells you all about the R Word. Mommy and daddy told you not to talk about money. Talk about money. Not just enough money. The people who have money are in control. They make decisions. It doesn't matter if it's 3K, 4K, or 6K. It's not enough. Only 1% of people are rich. The other 99% hate on them. Focus on earning income, not saving money. 1.Make a decision to get rich 2.Tell the world about it 3.Develop a killer and do whatever it takes 4.Set targets and follow them up like a maniac 5.Invest every penny you have It's easier to get rich one time than stay poor for a lifetime!

What do I do with my money? Today on the Cardone Zone Grant Cardone takes callers and talks about stocks and the financial condition of the world today. If you're in stocks sell. Grant got rid of his stocks last week. In your lifetime you will see no more Macy's and Kmart because shopping centers are going under. Why go someplace to shop when you can click on Amazon? America is the cleanest shirt in the closet—that doesn't mean it doesn't have wrinkles. The likelihood of the market going down is much higher than it going up. You need 100K in savings before you should think about investing. Grant's not being negative, he's trying to help out. All your attention should be on producing money. Wages are going down. There's going to be destruction and people who aren't financially prepared will be punished. Think about it—the stock market is worth 20% more than the entire GDP of the US. It's in the same range as the year 2000 when it boiled over. Get yourself in a position of opportunity. You have to have ammo on a safari—when the time comes to go hunting for real estate you need to be loaded. When the world goes dark it's your time to get bright. Get on Playbook to Millions today to get your money right—the deal is going to end soon—just like the prosperity in the stock market.

Today on the Cardone Zone Grant Cardone talks real estate. Don't invest in stocks. Don't do gold or silver. Don't do an IRA. The best investment you can make is in real estate. Getting rich is simple. 1. Increase your income 2. Save the extra 3. Invest savings Grant breaks down why real estate is the best investment and goes over various examples with numbers on the whiteboard. It's better to get a place with many residents than just one. You don't want just one door. Let renters pay the debt down. You can leverage your money to a high-degree in real-estate. You can buy a $2 million property for 500K. But to invest 500K you need to save 500K, and that requires a salary larger than 50K.

This week on the Cardone Zone Grant Cardone unveils the Playbook to Millions, takes callers and solves their problems. You shouldn't invest in anything except in yourself until you have 100K. You need prosperity. To get wealthy you must learn to increase your income. A lot of people couldn't afford the $995 special Grant had running on Cardone University last month so Grant is making something more affordable—an offer you can't deny. The Play Book to Millions was unveiled today as an affordable way to jump start your income. It's no secret… you want to make money… BIG MONEY. So many want to make it big, OR want to elevate their game to a whole new level… but simply don't know the next steps to take. Grant offers today over 35 HOURS of live training on topics from the most fundamental sales skill to some of the most advanced sales, closing, prospecting, and money making strategies including access to a Private FaceBook Group reserved ONLY for fellow participants of the Play Book to Millions course and the ability to interact and network with other like-minded people. There will be a TON of people wanting to participate in this course and because of the support that Grant and his team are going to provide, space will be extremely limited.

Today on the Cardone Zone Grant Cardone compares and contrasts the stock market and real estate. If you invested $1,000 in stocks (one share of the DOW) in 1985 today it would be worth $18,950. The average cost of home in 1985 was $24k and today it is $240K. You don't make 216K from that, you have to put a new roof on it and paid property taxes for 30 years. Houses on average went up 10X. There are better investments than this. My properties pay me 10-12% every year and my tenants pay down my debt. With income producing real estate over time debt will go down or value will go up with the property—or both likely. Pay more rent and less in housing. You need renters paying your debt down not you paying it down in a house. In the stock market for every Apple there are 50 that never went anywhere. Don't make little moves. Make big moves. Get at least $100K before you start investing. If you want to get rich get income producing properties only. You don't need stock, houses, gold, or bitcoin. If you can't repeat it, it's no wealth because it can't be duplicated. Guessing the right stocks and flipping houses are like a casino, you can pick a winner but can you duplicate it over and over again? Try and start with 16 units—so what if it's a bigger payment, don't think small. If you can figure out 4 you can figure out 16. You have to be committed and creative. If you lack creativity to get money, you aren't committed. If you are ever going to get in the real estate game you must have income and know how to make money. Get on Grant Cardone's Playbook to start earning more cash so that you will have something to invest for in the future.

Every Friday Grant Cardone brings you the Cardone Zone, and today he talks about 7 indicators that suggest the economic window is starting to tighten and close. This isn't to scare you but to get you ready. The Government wants inflation. They collect more income when inflation happens. For you, saving money is not your problem. You have to learn how to get attention and sell. What if people were chasing money as much as Pokemon? Add strategy and skills to your hustle. Recession proof your income for when you can't produce any more income. Something bad is going to happen, it's just a matter of when. Bad things aren't in your budget. Here are 7 indicators to keep in mind: 1. Personal income tax receipts are off 11.3% from last year. 2. Corp income tax receipts are down 16% 3. Fed excise taxes are down 0.8% 4. State sales tax up only 2.5%, lowest level in 3 years 5. Federal income tax fell 17% in June 6. Job opening have fallen 7. Wage growth is negative These are the worst earning reports in 5 quarters. Venezuela is falling apart. Their problems make America look good. The stock market is a complete hoax—a casino. It's time to get your money right. Get Grant's Playbook today, because the Millionaire is the new middle class.

Today on the Cardone Zone Grant Cardone discusses the chaos in Nice, France and the fact that you have to take responsibility for your freedom and safety by staying alert. The main lesson is to keep your eyes open. If you can't see problems how can you see opportunities? It's all about awareness. Learning how to use a gun is no different than learning about how to become a millionaire. If you can't confront evil, how will you see opportunity? Grant's economics changed when he took responsibility for his life. Bad things happen on this planet. Is it up to the police, the military, or political pundits? Or is it up to you? When terrorists hit, politicians tell you don't change your way of life. You need to change everything you do. If you don't change, you're going to get hurt. Homegrown terrorism is when you don't get your money right. Where there's poverty there is terrorism.

Today on the Cardone Zone Grant Cardone talks about the Federal Reserve. Money is only as valuable as the confidence people have in it. Raise your awareness. Where do banks get their money from? Money is anything that is excepted for value. The dollar is not backed by gold. The country is $20 trillion in debt. What are you doing to protect your money? What is the validity of the Federal Reserve? Grant is beginning to do a little homework on the Federal Reserve. When he doesn't know what's true and what's not, he does tests. He went to the bank and told them he needed a million dollars—cash. They asked for a reason, and Grant replied that they didn't ask him for a reason when he put it in. He wanted to test to see if he could even get his money. If you go to the bank and ask for even 100K you won't get it that day. The US has been for 200 years a country that has been built into greatness, but there is big problems —because it is a pure credit nation now. Everyone in the middle class is going to get disrupted. The money you have is digits in a bank, but Grant's advice is to get as much of it as you can because if things go bad, you'll still need it.

What do I do with my money? Today on the Cardone Zone Grant Cardone takes callers and talks about stocks and the financial condition of the world today. If you're in stocks sell.

Every Friday Grant Cardone talks money, finance, and business on the Cardone Zone. Today Grant takes callers and talks about building wealth. What is the only reason to save money? To invest it. 70% of America has to use debt to fund their monthly activities. Most people don't have an investing plan they just have a job plan. Make a decision to become a millionaire. Reinforce it every day. If you are in poverty or just getting by it's a condition that you've created and reinforced every day. The money is out there, there is no shortage. Who's got your money? You need to learn how to get money. Really there are just threes steps you need to get rich: 1)Learn to get money 2)Learn to keep money 3)Learn to multiply money Most people can't get past step 1. There are many people that get stuck at step 2. Look, it's easy to have 15 minutes of fame but you have to be able to keep it. If you get a spouse, you have to know how to keep him or her. Getting is one thing, keeping it is another. After you learn to get money and keep it—THEN you can start multiplying it.

On the Cardone Zone this Friday Grant Cardone talks doubt and money. There is no such thing as self doubt. All doubt comes from another source. It's other people's doubt adopted. The environment tells you to doubt. Doubt comes from outside influences. There's no self-garbage site, rather what once was nature got turned into a dump because people put trash there. Doubt got dropped on you from another space. Someone told you to doubt yourself. Why you aren't rich? #1 Outside influence: Again, there's doubt being implanted in you from others. They say things like "money won't make you happy". #2 Bad information—a penny saved is penny earned. No, it's a penny. Money doesn't grow on trees. No, it's printed and they always print more. There's more dollars than trees on this planet. #3 No plan— People go to college and wonder why they are there. This is why people fail, they don't even know what they want. Plans requires the world to be static. Bad things happen that aren't in the plan. #4 You need skills—At 15 Grant wasn't sure if a girl would go out with him. Now he could be a ladies man—if he weren't already happily married. The point is even if you want something you can't get it without having some needed skills. Most people don't know how to sell and therefore cannot get rich until they learn this essential skill. Who wants to get rich? Follow the money! You have to get excited. All successful people are excited. If you don't get excited about your money you won't have any. Get the Playbook to Millions. You have to know you don't know something. You have outside influence making you feel like you can't be rich, you get bad information from people, you have no plan, and you have no skills. It's work to stay poor. Poor isn't fun and it doesn't get you excited, does it? Write down everything you have doubt about and circle the ones that are reoccurring, then figure out who is fueling the doubt. What is it that you don't know about that thing that causes you doubt? If you have doubt about something you need to learn about it. Get rich!

This week on the Cardone Zone Grant Cardone unveils the Playbook to Millions, takes callers and solves their problems. You shouldn't invest in anything except in yourself until you have 100K. You need prosperity. To get wealthy you must learn to increase your income.

On today's episode, Grant discusses how he defines financial responsibility and practices it as part of his daily life. The truth is, most people don't even know what they have—which is a major violation of financial responsibility. What you pay attention to is where you get results. Watch as Grant explains his simple four step process and how to incorporate it in to your daily life: 1. Commit 2. Confront 3. Control 4. Commit again If you want to achieve financial responsibility, this is a simplistic strategy to do so. How often do you review YOUR finances?

How to Know when to invest? Grant Cardone has special guest twin brother Gary Cardone—CEO and Co-founder of Chargebacks911 on the Cardone Zone. Get your business, career, and finances right! 92 Million people in America are underemployed. What people should be doing now? Make more money! Gary is now of the mindset of not buying anything unless it produces income or energy. A house is not an asset, it's a liability. There's no reason to own a home. Don't buy a car, lease a car. Only buy something that produces income or energy. Why buy a house? For your ego? A fantasy that has been sold to you? Suzy Orman is wrong! Gary also says when making cold calls he uses a strategy to hit a company three different ways, contacting 1. The CEO 2. The COO 3. The CFO

Today on the Cardone Zone Grant Cardone talks about the YOUEconomy. Wages are not increasing folks, and we are entering a new economic age. Make a decision to focus on the YOU economy. Take responsibility for your finances—it's on you. Set a target and start doing the math. Take a second job, whatever it takes to get your money right. The truth is having a JOB means you are Just Over Broke. Your job is to think like an entrepreneur 24/7. Operate with urgency. Money don't care how old you are. You MUST learn how to sell. Extrovert yourself and make your own economy. The economy ain't coming back. Jobs are in the middle class. The middle class is disappearing. In 2008 I realized I was too dependent on THE Economy and not MY economy. I changed that and you can too. Get on Cardone University today.

Today on the Cardone Zone Grant Cardone brings news of a coming recession. It's been 8 years since the last major recession and Grant says we are in another one. When there is cranes in the air, beware. Stay away from real estate right now. Sell your house. It's too late when the hurricane hits. When the contraction happens its too late. When everyone is running to the door nobody can get out. Go to the door now. This will be deep, ugly, and long. It will effect you. Intel laid off a bunch of people this week. This will continue. Boeing is cutting jobs. There is 1.3 trillion dollars in college debt in this country. Grant went to the bank to get a bunch of money out and it took him 3 meetings and a week to get his money out. What will you do when there is a bank run and you can't get your money out? How to protect yourself from recession: Get prepared. 1) Don't wait for it to get here operate like it is here now. Out work everyone now as though the contraction is fully here. 2) Stop ALL spending except on those things that can increase income. Do NOT spend to consume; spend only to increase income. 3) Keep your firewood dry and add to it. Accumulate cash—wood for your fire—at all cost and spend nothing, preparing to invest when real assets get cheaper (they will). Prepare to steal when the market capitulates (throws up). Build your fire so big others stare in amazement. 4) Do whatever it takes to increase income. Take on other income opportunities to increase your monthly income and save it all. 5) Learn 'how' think rather than 'why' think and act like an entrepreneur. That means sales, marketing, negotiating, follow up, and branding.

On today's episode, Grant talks about something that even some of the 2016 presidential candidates could use a few tips about—how to sell yourself. Simply showing up is not enough. Grant discusses how some of the GOP candidates may have been on-stage, but they didn't show-up to blow-up. Watch Grant discuss these three rules to selling yourself: 1. Show up, and then show up again — then show off 2. Claim the stage as the authority 3. Sell who you are Think of your life as a movie and remember you are the producer, director and writer. That being said, it is invaluable to learn how to present yourself in a moment and command an audience.

In this edition of the Cardone Zone Grant Cardone tells you to GET RICH. Every Friday he gets you in HIS zone and today he tells you all about the R Word.

Grant is talking today about how to get your mind on your money. He goes into how millionaires view their money versus how everyone else does. Do have that wealth mentality? Are you trying to 10X your finances so you can reach your dreams? Do you think the wealthy have an unfair financial advantage? Everyone has the same opportunity to acquire wealth. Grant came from nothing financially, his father died when he was young, and his mother did everything she could to provide for her children—except expanding her wealth; she hoarded the money.

In this edition of the Cardone Zone Grant gives a crash course on investing 101. Here are the 3 mistakes people make with investing. 1.Investing too early. Do you think about investing when you have no money? Of course not. People ask Grant all the time what they should invest in with the 10K they got. If all you have is 10K you are still broke and have no business investing. The best investment Grant made in his life is not investing. He waited until he had a more significant amount to put his chips down on the table. 2. You start too small. What are you going to do do, invest a nickel? $5 goes up 100 times it's still just $500 bucks. The think is too small. The only reason to invest is to get rich, to have prosperity. Don't do little tiny amounts. They won't make a difference. Don't invest to grow, invest for freedom. Wait until you have a significant amount to invest. Grant was 33 years old when he had over a million dollars in the bank before he made his first real estate investment. 3.Diversify: Rich people put all the eggs in one basket. They protect that basket. Don't put a lot of different eggs in a number of different baskets. Rich people make 1 big deal. Wall street sells diversification. People don't know what they are investing in. Accumulate cash so you can put it in one big deal. People keep gambling with little pieces and get torched. You have to reduce your risk by doing your homework. You should not give money to people you don't know. You put $100 into a mutual fund and you don't even know where it's going. Investing is a vital part to earning your freedom. Chances are you won't inherit wealth. A good investment is something you put your money in and it explodes. The bank tells you to put your money in a bank and it will grow. No it won't. It will sit there. But you need to let your money sit there until you earn enough to save a significant amount. If you have 100K to your name you don't want to spend all that in one deal. You still need to have something left, you want to sleep at night. Get your income up and keep parking the money until you have enough to make a big play and still have some left over. I spent 350K on my first deal when I had over 1 million saved.

Every week Grant Cardone comes at you on the Cardone Zone to talk about career, business, and finance. This week the topic is MISTAKES. What do you do when you screw up? We sent out an inappropriate email to 100's of thousands of companies including places like Google, Aflac, and All-State. We all mistakes. The key is how you recover from them. Mistakes are really MEstakes because mistakes are your fault. When you've made a mistake, do the following: 1) Confront Head On Be a useful tool for disseminating accurate and timely information. Dealing with the media in good times or when things are more challenging, can be frustrating. 2) Handle It—Set the Rules of the Game We made a mistake, I own it and I hope you can forgive us for it. I won't apologize over and over again. People make mistakes. I am not going to be punished repeatedly. 3) Use the Energy of the Crisis or Mistake to Increase Exposure Write articles, do interviews, record podcasts, etc. Get in front of the story if you can. You have different channels that you can get away with different things. Your biggest mistake would be if you are too scared to make any mistakes. Realize that when a wreck happens people look. Make the best of the situation and turn the bad into a good!

In today's episode, Grant discusses how to triple your income. The truth is people are saving less than ever and the statistics are alarming. A recent study found nearly half of Americans are saving no more than 5% of their income and one in five are saving nothing. A quarter of middle class households are only saving about 15% of their income. In fact, the only groups able to save any money are those in the top 10%. The only way to solve this problem is to make more money. Grant breaks down all the numbers and reveals how people are literally wasting their time and earning potential. Watch Grant reveal how to triple your income, utilize your time and solve your problems. It's that simple.

No society can sustain this kind of rising inequality." Grant offers his take on this topic, explains that the middle class needs to change their mindset and aspire for true freedom by understanding that: 1. You must make freedom your responsibility. 2. Think like an entrepreneur. 3. Stop settling for comfort and work for freedom. 4. Invest in yourself and ways to get more opportunities. Grant notes that everything he does in business is to create freedom for himself and his family and that the middle class has to increase income and thing in terms of wealth creation instead of saving and scarcity.

The economist talk to the top 1%, not you. You need to know what your condition is before you can fix your condition. Adjusted for inflation, real household income is not increasing and you are getting squeezed. Wages are being deflated, cost of living is being inflated. Nobody has money to save or invest because they have nothing left over. 76% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck. Get your income above 104K The only people that can save much is the top 10%.

Today on the Cardone Zone Grant talks about the need for you to get your message across. Last night's debates highlighted some of the mistakes so many people make. What You Can Learn from the Debate • First Show Up • Keep it Simple • Be Authentic • Focus on Your Message • Repeat What you are going to do for them….
