Everyone says the same about Illinois. I live in Cook County ❤ which is the same county as Chicago. I think California, NY & Illinois elections a rigged. We don’t have a vote here, you get out of Cook county and the state is mostly red. Once in awhile a republican (literally a democrat) wins, but it’s a joke. A Republican never wins in Chicago.

YES INDEED! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🙌🏻🙌🏻. Just like people move to my TX Panhandle and they certainly find out there are more Bush globalist types and flat out Democrats than they would have thought! We have the BLUE problem everywhere! There are awesome CA patriots !!!
I’m not native to California, but I’m here and am for common sense which more often than not means, conservative views. My entire family is in the state and we plan to stay and fight. There’s nothing else to do as we all can’t leave the state together.
In the '70's we were flooded with people from the midwest and back east. They brought the disease with them. There used to be license plate stickers that said "Welcome to California, now go home." They didn't go home!
IMPOSSIBLE. You won't convince a communist to stop being a communist. Communism is a cult of control, destruction, and death. MOVE to a state where the leaders haven't been brainwashed.
I agree in principle, but in reality I think everything is too entrenched in these places. I live in NY state (in a smaller area and nowhere near NYC) and live in a decent but modest home. My taxes just surpassed $8K for the first time and jobs are SCARCE. It's way past time to leave this place. It's a shame because I think northern, central and western NY have so many beautiful places.
Exactly right! Don’t leave. Florida used to be a blue state and a mess itself but we the “people” turned it around with our votes! No one thought it was possible but it happened. We didn’t give up!!!🇺🇸

FWIW, I live in MA too, and my neighborhood''s never been more transparently pro-MAGA/GOP. Meanwhile, haven't seen a single sign that there's support for the other side. I think a lot of the Dem rot has turned even the hardcore supporters off.
I had a dear friend tat lived in Upton MA. I was in awe of how much it cost for him to live in that little town. The police presence was over the top. I was also saddened that the Freedom Trail in Boston was filled with trash. The train ride from Upton area to Boston was like a ride through the dump. I was not impressed with MA at all.
I lived in Auburn/Federal way for 50 years. I had to leave 8 months ago because of the political environment. Became too expensive and too dangerous. I thought I would miss my home state but I don’t. Where I live now gives me peace of mind and the people are amazing!
As a native Floridian, I’ve been hearing jokes about Florida my whole life but everyone wants to move here. We’re full. Don’t New York/California my Florida.
My parents moved from NYC to Florida recently. I’ll be joining them soon. If it’s any consolation, I’m not voting demorat. Frankly I don’t see how anyone can vote for them.
My mom and dad live in Georgia and have a modest home, and they’re paying about $7k in property taxes and the same in insurance. $15k a year to live in a home that’s paid off. Government rent.
Mr. Cardone stated, “ He only gets involved in politics when it hurts him financially.” This is a small part, but yet still a part of the reason of why we are where we are today. We have good people with decent morals who don’t get involved in politics until it’s almost, pretty much too late. This is a constitutional republic. It’s supposed to be run by the people. If we are not constantly involved in politics, then we really don’t have the control. For many years, these politicians have run this country without the checks and balances. If we don’t keep tabs on what our politicians are doing, vigilantly, they will do whatever they want, and so here we are.😢
I’m a Californian who didn’t vote for any of this crap. I did vote for Trump twice and will vote for him again. I am convinced there is rampant voter fraud in California. I don’t think the democrats have as big of a majority as it appears they do. Either way we are in bad shape here. The decline here is unbelievable. I share your sentiment. I really hope these transplants from CA don’t destroy other states. But not all of us are bad!!!!
@@Wren1 the people who have lived in those states, voted with common sense, and helped build their communities absolutely have a right to voice their concerns about idiots who ruined their own states moving to theirs. Taking ownership is taking responsibility, you absolute child.

She always wins with late voting, meaning she didn't pull away til the end of the night when they can more accurately cheat by knowing what registered voters aren't going to show up so they use those numbers so they don't accidentally over vote...she's knows what # she needs to get to ,to win.

We have to unite and demand that non-citizens not vote in our elections and that each vote be vetted for legitimacy.
Democrats want to create 2 new states, Puerto Rico and Washington.DC. How about the republicans create about 10 new states by separating the democrat urban areas from the rest of the states. I’m sure millions of people in Illinois would like to separate from Chicago, same with Michigan from Detroit, etc .
As I drive through the countryside all I see are Trump supporters, very rare Harris supporters. Detroit has been democrat since the 60's. I worked downtown from when I was 13 till I turned 20 in '77. There has been a population decline from 1.5 million down to about 750,000 in that time. I would guess 3 out of 6 homes are burned or abandoned and inner-city people still vote democrat.
@@napamoonlight9997yes. We moved to TX from Los Angeles… TX has super high property tax. BUT- a lot of other aspects to living are cheaper… so it balances out. We are so much happier in TX. It is TOTALLY different from CA, there was a HUGE lifestyle change but what we gave up we realize was not the source of our happiness….
I totally agree with all of these comments and I think the whole intro needs to be thrown in the trash. Don’t even try to just fix it. Just start over again.
I would typically agree with you. I live in Georgia, 2 years ago the property tax went up dramatically! My county has 87k house holds , only 3k house holds fought against the increase on there property tax increase , that's saddening truly how even though it goes against everything our country stands for these people took it without a fight. That hit the wallet hard , no responce from most , really sad..... I fought like hell !
If the world that we live in today does not prove that we cannot afford to not pay attention to politics regardless if the issues will impacts us I don't know what will. We Americans are lazy and have taken for granted this wonderful nation that we live in. Even our forefathers said that we will have to fight to stay free.
Which is actually right out of the Chinese communist playbook. I learned this from an actual Chinese person. They can’t own property longer than 100 years. Our government accomplishes that same feat via inheritance, property, and gift taxes. Only the Uber rich can overcome these hurdles.

I left Illinois for the same reason. They increased the state income tax from 3% to 5% claiming that it was "just a 2% increase", but somehow the amount that I had to send to Springfield went up by 67%.
*The wisest thing that should be on everyone's mind currently should be to invest in different streams of income that don't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in gold, silver, and digital currencies (BTC, ETH...)..*
I began investing in stocks and Def earlier this year, and it is the best choice l've ever made. My portfolio is rounding up to almost a million and I have realized that when a stock makes it to the news, chances are you're quite late to the party, the idea is to get in early on blue chips before it becomes public. There are lots of life changing opportunities in the market, and maximize it.
In light of the global crisis, rising inflation, and economic instability caused by inadequate governance, stocks, ETFs, Mutual funds, and REITs, assets can serve as a viable path to achieving financial independence.
More and more people might face a tough time in retirement. Low-paying jobs, inflation, and high rents make it hard to save. Now, middle-class Americans find it tough to own a home too, leaving them without a place to retire.
Rising prices have affected my intention of retiring at 62, working part-time, and building my savings. I'm worried about whether individuals who weathered the 2008 financial crisis found it less challenging than my current situation. The stock market's volatility, coupled with a reduced income, is making me anxious about having enough for retirement.
@@Grey-y6u I agree with you. I was a stay at Home mom with no money in my IRA or any savings of my own, which was scary at 43 years of age. Three years ago I got a part time job and save everything I make. After 3 years, I am 46 yo and have put $9,000 in an IRA and $40,000 in my portfolio. Since the goal of getting a job was to invest for retirement and NOT up my lifestyle, I was able to scale this quickly to $150,000. If I can do this in a year, anyone can.
I’ve oct repeated the phrase Don’t Californicate New Mexico! The rural areas are generally red but urban numbers are very blue. Lots of people in this state are looking for every freebie they can get, with a freeloader mentality. Poverty is bad but many are too lazy to work to change their circumstances. Hell, I’m a 100% disabled veteran. I’ve been forced to garden pretty intensively to offset the bills on food. I’m nobody’s victim! I’m trusting God.
@@dr.froghopper6711 I don’t understand why our government is more concerned for illegals than for our veterans. I have been retired since 2018 but am so burdened for our veterans. Do you know what or where I should get involved? I have grandchildren in the armed forces and I want their future to be kinder as veterans than what is going on now. I would volunteer if I thought it would help. Let me know if you know of any organizations that I can look into. Trusting God is definitely better than trusting a government that has used you to protect them and not protect you! It makes me furious!
Is it fraud in New York State when they over estimate your home value to raise property taxes and then never lower your taxes when the bottom falls out of the market?
Standard operating procedure for local Governments the world wide bro they get excited when property values rise and never hesitate to bump up those taxes and once they go up they rarely come down.
People and businesses leave; increase taxes. They won't spend less. More leave. Endless spiral of increasing taxes and fees that will leave most of California and other places like Detroit or Cleveland. Look up how prosperous those cities used to be.
California, too. Funny thing is...I'm in a D+35 district. In my neighborhood there's 0 Kamala yard signs...now 6 Trump signs. Considering 3-8 years ago you would get verbally or physically assaulted just for wearing a MAGA hat...that is HUGE! I can wear my hat now in public and get 👍. Your house would get vandalized if you had a Trump yard sign. I was physically assaulted 3 times in 2016-2017. My husband wouldn't let me wear my hat outside the house after the last 1 knocked me out. For a hat. 12pk of beer to the back of the head walking out of a RiteAid. I was out cold and no one helped me. A dozen people said I deserved it for wearing that hat. I proudly wear my "I'm voting for the felon 2024 shirt" with my black MAGA hat to the grocery store today. I rarely even get a dirty look anymore. We drove about 2 hours out of town about 2 weeks ago. We saw 1 Kamala bumper sticker. And dozens of Trump stickers. I'm not to far from Kamala's home turf. Trump won't win California. But it's gonna be a helluva lot closer than it was in 2020.
I don't have this guy's bank account but I'm moving across the river to PA and it's gonna cost NJ at least 20K in property taxes and at least 50-100k in income tax. AND GUESS WHAT? PA is a 50-50 state MY REPUBLICAN VOTE MATTERS
I'm in South Jersey on the river, and as unfortunate as it is that the liberal North dominates our voting outcomes, we really could use some more right-leaning voters. I live in a 50/50 town, our local politics seem to flip flop often. sometimes the Democrats win sometimes the Republicans win. The town next to me is all Republican. Ocean county, Cumberland county and Cape May county are all Republican counties... Not to mention we have many independent voters who are leaning more right these days. My daughter had moved to Pennsylvania thinking that it would be better, and it was not, not by a long shot. Pennsylvania has a lot of problems. I'm not going to tell you what to do, but I really wish that we had more people willing to stand their ground in this awesome state and fight for it. Our river towns are amazing, the Delaware Bay on the Jersey side is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to, Cape May is amazing... We're right between New York and Philly for awesome museums and concerts We have the pine barrens for camping, the oceans the mountains the cities, and some of the best food around. All we need to do is gain the numbers to take our government back. All I'm saying, is if we stick together we can make New Jersey great again.
I was finally able to flee Southern California this past May for Kentucky. My heart breaks that my once glorious home state has been completely destroyed by bad policies. I’m so grateful to be retired at 45. Living lakeside where everyone loves America and has common sense. I was never political until Newsom and the schools started messing with children. Then I was nearly throw into oncoming traffic when I hit a pothole 3 feet wide. You were always my fav Dave when you were on channel 5.

When they talk about a lack of freedom they're talking about Afghanistan, Saudi, Iran, Gaza, Syria etc... which all earned their reputations 100x.

I usually worked as a software developer for a small startup i was living paycheck-to-paycheck, Don't have much mone or pursue my dreams. One day, my friend introduced me to Ms. Susan Jane Christy
After I raised up to 325k trading with her I bought a new House and a car here in the states 🇺🇸🇺🇸 also paid for my son's surgery (Oscar). Glory to God.shalom.
Florida has a big condo problem bro and property insurance is skyrocketing. I liked living in Florida, but after Covid-19 it started to progressively get worse. After Helene just hit i hate to think what insurance carriers are going to do?
Hate to break it to you but unless it was new ground breaking property, Grant selling property in New York didn't cost New York 10 million in property taxes. Grant isn't paying the taxes but whoever he sold the property to is now paying the taxes. New york is still getting the taxes.
The thing is he's not using the money from the sale of his properties to reinvest in New York. He took that money out of that state and invested it in Florida. That means that anyone who's looking to build in New York won't have the investors they need to build or to buy their new building properties. That means less construction. That money, 1/2 a billion dollars, was invested in Florida and Florida builders see opportunities that has been lost in New York. He also didn't say that he SOLD his properties. He said that withdrew from projects in New York, which means that those who were depending on his money to complete their projects, must find new investors. It may not happen, now and that would indicate that these were construction projects. Properties that will not be developed so those projected properties won't be taxed at the completed values of those projects.
He gave numbers… $500MM investments, $10Mm/ yr prop tax delta runs avg 2% of value. So, he could have been talking marginal lower tax revenue due to reduced assessable value. Dump an improvement project and the assessed value goes down. Except for regular homeowners and small businesses for whom protesting tax assessment is typ. Difficult.
I am often asked why I left California. I’m a fourth-generation Californian and the owner of two successful consulting firms. My decision to leave California was a deeply personal and challenging one. While my roots were firmly planted in the Golden State, the compelling reasons to depart became impossible to ignore. Firstly, the surge in crime rates was a pressing concern. California's high crime rate had a direct impact on the safety and well-being of both my employees and my family, making it increasingly difficult to maintain a sense of security. Add to that California leads the nation in oppressive gun laws…try getting a conceal carry permit…and legislation that encourages crime. Secondly, California's educational system, once a source of pride (UCLA ‘71), has fallen behind significantly, earning it a reputation for having one of the worst educational systems in the United States. This decline was a significant concern for the future of my children, grandchildren and my employees' children and the generations to come. When in California, I still interviewed prospective employees, and it was alarming that college graduates couldn’t do simple math without a calculator, write a comprehensive paragraph describing why I should hire them, and have an attitude of an entitled moron. Coupled with the above, the homelessness crisis and the associated filth on the streets has created an environment that is both hazardous and disheartening; further contributing to the erosion of the state's appeal. Moreover, the state's high gas prices, high utility bills, water police, EV / green energy mandates, porous border policy, the attacks on Prop 13, home insurance rates, natural gas appliance bans, exorbitant income taxes, and burdensome corporate taxes were taking a toll on both my businesses and my employees' finances. In September, the California Air Resources Board (CARB), the state's primary environmental regulator, reported gas prices will rise next year by about 50 cents a gallon and every year thereafter to aid in “clean air efforts”. The price increase does not include the existing gas tax in the state. Now get this…now they are planning a mileage tax because they say the EVs are not paying gas taxes, so they too will be assessed a new tax to help pay for the maintenance of deteriorating infrastructure. The deteriorating infrastructure and an array of mandates, including vaccine and mask mandates, added to the growing list of grievances. Add to that the insane idea that somehow raising the minimum wage will help the poor. Workers in areas where the minimum wage was increased were thrilled at the prospect of more money. Then reality hit. They were no longer eligible for subsidized housing, paid child care, Medicaid and food stamps. Many of them ended up with LESS income than before. Minimum wage jobs were not intended to be career choices. They were entry level jobs and first jobs for teenagers, not illegal aliens. They were intended for those entering the job market to purchase gas for their cars and acne medication…not subsidized lifetime employment. The mismanagement and corruption in all levels of government, epitomized by the controversial high-speed rail project, and a proposed mileage tax, were the final straws that led me, as a fourth-generation Californian, to make the difficult choice to leave the state in search of a better future for my employees and my family. After retaining counsel, and discussing options with my family and my employees, I decided to make the move from Commifornia to Texas for several compelling reasons. At the outset, one of the most striking differences I noticed was the friendliness of the people in Texas. Texans are renowned for their warm hospitality and welcoming nature, which made the transition to a new state much smoother and more enjoyable. It's not uncommon to strike up conversations with strangers and be met with a genuine, friendly demeanor that I found refreshing. Additionally, Texas boasts several other advantages, such as better schools, improved infrastructure, and the absence of both income and corporate taxes. The quality of education in Texas is notably high, which was a significant consideration for my family and my employees. Better roads not only make commuting more convenient but also contribute to the overall quality of life. The absence of state income and corporate taxes is a considerable financial benefit, allowing residents to retain more of their hard-earned money. Moreover, a new proposition in Texas to lower property taxes further solidified my decision to move, demonstrating the state's commitment to reducing the financial burden on its residents. In essence, Texas offers a blend of practical advantages and a unique sense of pride and community that I've come to cherish. Sure, people will bring up problems facing Texas, but what amazed me, Texans aren’t afraid to face them head on. An individual still has a voice in Texas. I always hear the same, rebuttal…the beaches, the mountains, the desert, the climate…and my response; my ancestors left Europe to find freedom and prosperity…I have left Commifornia for the same reasons, plus, I’m surrounded by people who think like I do! I have absolutely no regrets leaving Commifornia.
Vermont is the most pro Harris of any state. The dems here are killing people with excessive taxes. They can’t run on what they’ve done here so they just talk about Trump who won’t get 30% here. They are bad
"This is what I hate about businessmen: they only start talking about politics when it affects them. As long as their business is running well, they don’t care if the world is falling apart."
@@Guitarlvr01That's definitely not true. Liberals often will vote for the idea of fair outcomes for other people, easier paths to citizenship, more money for welfare, etc. All of those things will negatively impact the average liberal that makes an okay salary, but they don't have the foresight to vote correctly.

Grant Cardone is right. According to the U.S. Census Bureau in 2022, California gained 475,803 residents but lost 817,669 residents. However, in 2023 California's population increased by 67,000 people according to new data released today by the California Department of Finance (DOF). The California DOF says that the state's population growth can be attributed to an increase in LEGAL FOREIGN IMMIGRATION and natural population increasing. However, people moving into the state by making false “Asylum” claims are technically “legal” immigrants. Hispanics are now the largest racial group in the state comprising over 40 percent of the population. In recent years California has been losing about one percent of their long-time population every year but that population has been replaced by new immigrants moving into the state so the overall population numbers are misleading. In reality, millions of the most productive, tax-paying citizens are moving out of the state and they are being replaced by millions of immigrants who have little or no job skills and are likely to become dependent on taxpayer-funded welfare and social benefits. The tax payers are moving out and the tax takers are moving in. That system is mathematically unsustainable and is doomed to accelerating failure.
"When I moved, I cost the state $10 million a year in property taxes." NO, NOT TRUE. You might have sold your properties, and you aren't paying the property taxes, but whomever you sold them to is paying them instead, and probably more if they appreciated while you owned them. They only lose on income taxes if you move. This is very sloppy thinking for someone who is supposed to be smart. Wow.

I live in crazy Oregon, it's all ideology nothing else matters. They are so far left that it literally blinds them to the pain they cause to the ordinary citizen.
Liberals tend to think of money as something that is magically created and not taxed from hard working middle class. They live in a world of theory, not practicality.
NYC has the worst traffic ever. So if everyone is running for an exit where are all these damn vehicles coming from? NJ? Rent is skyrocketing too. What happened to all the forecasted vacancies?
The problem with other people's money is...eventually you run out of other people's money. Money goes where it's appreciated. The lack of money is the root of all evil. A fool and his money are soon parted. I'd like to live as a poor man with lots of money. Men make counterfeit money; in many more cases money makes counterfeit men. Friendship is like money, easier made than kept.
The problem is that if we federally follow the same footsteps that California did, investors....and wealth....and assets....and innovation are going to wholesale leave the country. Which I think is ultimately kind of their goal. I like to try to give people the benefit of the doubt....or that it's just ignorance to the outcomes of their good intentions.......but I just don't really think it's the case anymore. It's hard not to conclude that it's coming from nefarious intentions now.

@vickyshanks2038 yeah, i really f***ing wish they voting model would change.
I lived in Auburn/Federal way for 50 years. I had to leave 8 months ago because of the political environment. Became too expensive and too dangerous. I thought I would miss my home state but I don’t. Where I live now gives me peace of mind and the people are amazing!
As a native Floridian, I’ve been hearing jokes about Florida my whole life but everyone wants to move here. We’re full. Don’t New York/California my Florida.
Oh I don’t think anyone wants to move there now….,
Florida ain't all that
My parents moved from NYC to Florida recently. I’ll be joining them soon. If it’s any consolation, I’m not voting demorat. Frankly I don’t see how anyone can vote for them.
Amen 👊🏻
@@dianakidd4219 based on the amount of people moving here, I’d beg to differ.
My mom and dad live in Georgia and have a modest home, and they’re paying about $7k in property taxes and the same in insurance. $15k a year to live in a home that’s paid off. Government rent.
Love your RUclips name!
Criminal politicians.
Almost sounds like China. Government leases last 70-80 years I think which are not renewable if the government has different plans for that land.
That’s shear evil…😢
That’s horrible.
Mr. Cardone stated, “ He only gets involved in politics when it hurts him financially.” This is a small part, but yet still a part of the reason of why we are where we are today. We have good people with decent morals who don’t get involved in politics until it’s almost, pretty much too late. This is a constitutional republic. It’s supposed to be run by the people. If we are not constantly involved in politics, then we really don’t have the control. For many years, these politicians have run this country without the checks and balances. If we don’t keep tabs on what our politicians are doing, vigilantly, they will do whatever they want, and so here we are.😢

VOTE Trump for 2024 We the People, know Trump can bring back the American Dream. ❤🙏 Karen Murao
So true!
Well said!
A true patriot is involved to protect his country-not just a pocket book.
Don’t send these destructive politics to other states. These people voted this crap on themselves and the rest of us don’t want their points of view.
I’m a Californian who didn’t vote for any of this crap. I did vote for Trump twice and will vote for him again. I am convinced there is rampant voter fraud in California. I don’t think the democrats have as big of a majority as it appears they do. Either way we are in bad shape here. The decline here is unbelievable.
I share your sentiment. I really hope these transplants from CA don’t destroy other states. But not all of us are bad!!!!
That statement if flat false - democrats enforce policy that aren’t voted on moron - corruption in local governments.

It's not as confusing as I'm explaining,but from living here I know she's not winning legitimately
⚠️CALIFORNIA VOTERS
Please join the Reform California Organization efforts to reform the CA voting system. CA doesn't verify if voter ballots are legitimate. Reform California is trying to change that. They have a website and videos here on RUclips. Please join the effort. We have to unite and demand that non-citizens not vote in our elections and that each vote be vetted for legitimacy.
But CA is a Sanctuary State just so they can register illegals to vote!
Democrats want to create 2 new states, Puerto Rico and Washington.DC. How about the republicans create about 10 new states by separating the democrat urban areas from the rest of the states. I’m sure millions of people in Illinois would like to separate from Chicago, same with Michigan from Detroit, etc .
As I drive through the countryside all I see are Trump supporters, very rare Harris supporters. Detroit has been democrat since the 60's. I worked downtown from when I was 13 till I turned 20 in '77. There has been a population decline from 1.5 million down to about 750,000 in that time. I would guess 3 out of 6 homes are burned or abandoned and inner-city people still vote democrat.
Don't forget East St Louis in that IL separation!
Great idea. Everyone in CO would love to divorce from the disaster that is Denver....
And New York!
Sounds like a good plan. Many in PA would like to separate from the lunacy in Philadelphia.

Most people dont give a s*** until it hits their wallet.
So true.
As it should be, that is exactly the reason the colonies rebelled against GB.
I would typically agree with you. I live in Georgia, 2 years ago the property tax went up dramatically! My county has 87k house holds , only 3k house holds fought against the increase on there property tax increase , that's saddening truly how even though it goes against everything our country stands for these people took it without a fight. That hit the wallet hard , no responce from most , really sad..... I fought like hell !

You do not purchase property. You purchase a right to lease it from the government . . .leqse payment =taxes
Which is actually right out of the Chinese communist playbook. I learned this from an actual Chinese person. They can’t own property longer than 100 years. Our government accomplishes that same feat via inheritance, property, and gift taxes. Only the Uber rich can overcome these hurdles.

*The wisest thing that should be on everyone's mind currently should be to invest in different streams of income that don't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the world. This is still a good time to invest in gold, silver, and digital currencies (BTC, ETH...)..*
I began investing in stocks and Def earlier this year, and it is the best choice l've ever made. My portfolio is rounding up to almost a million and I have realized that when a stock makes it to the news, chances are you're quite late to the party, the idea is to get in early on blue chips before it becomes public. There are lots of life changing opportunities in the market, and maximize it.
What opportunities are there in the market, and how do I profit from it?
You can make a lot of money from the market regardless of whether it strengthens or crashes. The key is to be well positioned.
I would really like to know how this actually works.
All you need is a good capital and the service of a professional broker, with those your investment will most certainly produce high yields.
I paid $1900 last year in property taxes and thought that was highway robbery.
Inflation isn't down. One could say the "monthly inflation rate" is down, as in prices aren't going up as fast as they were the previous 40 months
In light of the global crisis, rising inflation, and economic instability caused by inadequate governance, stocks, ETFs, Mutual funds, and REITs, assets can serve as a viable path to achieving financial independence.
More and more people might face a tough time in retirement. Low-paying jobs, inflation, and high rents make it hard to save. Now, middle-class Americans find it tough to own a home too, leaving them without a place to retire.
Rising prices have affected my intention of retiring at 62, working part-time, and building my savings. I'm worried about whether individuals who weathered the 2008 financial crisis found it less challenging than my current situation. The stock market's volatility, coupled with a reduced income, is making me anxious about having enough for retirement.
@@Grey-y6u I agree with you. I was a stay at Home mom with no money in my IRA or any savings of my own, which was scary at 43 years of age. Three years ago I got a part time job and save everything I make. After 3 years, I am 46 yo and have put $9,000 in an IRA and $40,000 in my portfolio. Since the goal of getting a job was to invest for retirement and NOT up my lifestyle, I was able to scale this quickly to $150,000. If I can do this in a year, anyone can.

Hell, I’m a 100% disabled veteran. I’ve been forced to garden pretty intensively to offset the bills on food. I’m nobody’s victim! I’m trusting God.
@@dr.froghopper6711 I don’t understand why our government is more concerned for illegals than for our veterans. I have been retired since 2018 but am so burdened for our veterans. Do you know what or where I should get involved? I have grandchildren in the armed forces and I want their future to be kinder as veterans than what is going on now. I would volunteer if I thought it would help. Let me know if you know of any organizations that I can look into. Trusting God is definitely better than trusting a government that has used you to protect them and not protect you! It makes me furious!
I lived in California in the 80s. "Don't Californicate Oregon" was the bumper sticker of choice then. Things haven't changed.
Is it fraud in New York State when they over estimate your home value to raise property taxes and then never lower your taxes when the bottom falls out of the market?
Standard operating procedure for local Governments the world wide bro they get excited when property values rise and never hesitate to bump up those taxes and once they go up they rarely come down.

California, too. Funny thing is...I'm in a D+35 district. In my neighborhood there's 0 Kamala yard signs...now 6 Trump signs. Considering 3-8 years ago you would get verbally or physically assaulted just for wearing a MAGA hat...that is HUGE! I can wear my hat now in public and get 👍. Your house would get vandalized if you had a Trump yard sign. I was physically assaulted 3 times in 2016-2017. My husband wouldn't let me wear my hat outside the house after the last 1 knocked me out. For a hat. 12pk of beer to the back of the head walking out of a RiteAid. I was out cold and no one helped me. A dozen people said I deserved it for wearing that hat. I proudly wear my "I'm voting for the felon 2024 shirt" with my black MAGA hat to the grocery store today. I rarely even get a dirty look anymore. We drove about 2 hours out of town about 2 weeks ago. We saw 1 Kamala bumper sticker. And dozens of Trump stickers. I'm not to far from Kamala's home turf. Trump won't win California. But it's gonna be a helluva lot closer than it was in 2020.
I agree and I’m so done with men in tight pants and shirts, when will it stop?
I don't have this guy's bank account but I'm moving across the river to PA and it's gonna cost NJ at least 20K in property taxes and at least 50-100k in income tax. AND GUESS WHAT? PA is a 50-50 state MY REPUBLICAN VOTE MATTERS
I know a great realtor in Pa, I’m sure he would love the business. He can even get you a realtor in NJ to sell your current house.
I'm in South Jersey on the river, and as unfortunate as it is that the liberal North dominates our voting outcomes, we really could use some more right-leaning voters. I live in a 50/50 town, our local politics seem to flip flop often. sometimes the Democrats win sometimes the Republicans win. The town next to me is all Republican. Ocean county, Cumberland county and Cape May county are all Republican counties... Not to mention we have many independent voters who are leaning more right these days. My daughter had moved to Pennsylvania thinking that it would be better, and it was not, not by a long shot. Pennsylvania has a lot of problems. I'm not going to tell you what to do, but I really wish that we had more people willing to stand their ground in this awesome state and fight for it. Our river towns are amazing, the Delaware Bay on the Jersey side is one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to, Cape May is amazing... We're right between New York and Philly for awesome museums and concerts We have the pine barrens for camping, the oceans the mountains the cities, and some of the best food around. All we need to do is gain the numbers to take our government back. All I'm saying, is if we stick together we can make New Jersey great again.
I left PA and moved to Florida.
As far as the money- the next owner will pay it and will have a job. The only relevant thing is that we could move and make more states solid red

30 second intro? ur intro is drawn out... all i want is the interesting news.
I like Grant as a guest.
Hate to break it to you but unless it was new ground breaking property, Grant selling property in New York didn't cost New York 10 million in property taxes. Grant isn't paying the taxes but whoever he sold the property to is now paying the taxes. New york is still getting the taxes.
The thing is he's not using the money from the sale of his properties to reinvest in New York. He took that money out of that state and invested it in Florida. That means that anyone who's looking to build in New York won't have the investors they need to build or to buy their new building properties. That means less construction. That money, 1/2 a billion dollars, was invested in Florida and Florida builders see opportunities that has been lost in New York. He also didn't say that he SOLD his properties. He said that withdrew from projects in New York, which means that those who were depending on his money to complete their projects, must find new investors. It may not happen, now and that would indicate that these were construction projects. Properties that will not be developed so those projected properties won't be taxed at the completed values of those projects.
He gave numbers… $500MM investments, $10Mm/ yr prop tax delta runs avg 2% of value. So, he could have been talking marginal lower tax revenue due to reduced assessable value. Dump an improvement project and the assessed value goes down. Except for regular homeowners and small businesses for whom protesting tax assessment is typ. Difficult.
Crazy times ….Thanks for all the important info!!
Wow, that intro makes me wonder, are you a news guy or a wannabe movie star?
I am often asked why I left California. I’m a fourth-generation Californian and the owner of two successful consulting firms. My decision to leave California was a deeply personal and challenging one.
While my roots were firmly planted in the Golden State, the compelling reasons to depart became impossible to ignore. Firstly, the surge in crime rates was a pressing concern. California's high crime rate had a direct impact on the safety and well-being of both my employees and my family, making it increasingly difficult to maintain a sense of security. Add to that California leads the nation in oppressive gun laws…try getting a conceal carry permit…and legislation that encourages crime.
Secondly, California's educational system, once a source of pride (UCLA ‘71), has fallen behind significantly, earning it a reputation for having one of the worst educational systems in the United States. This decline was a significant concern for the future of my children, grandchildren and my employees' children and the generations to come. When in California, I still interviewed prospective employees, and it was alarming that college graduates couldn’t do simple math without a calculator, write a comprehensive paragraph describing why I should hire them, and have an attitude of an entitled moron.
Coupled with the above, the homelessness crisis and the associated filth on the streets has created an environment that is both hazardous and disheartening; further contributing to the erosion of the state's appeal.
Moreover, the state's high gas prices, high utility bills, water police, EV / green energy mandates, porous border policy, the attacks on Prop 13, home insurance rates, natural gas appliance bans, exorbitant income taxes, and burdensome corporate taxes were taking a toll on both my businesses and my employees' finances. In September, the California Air Resources Board (CARB), the state's primary environmental regulator, reported gas prices will rise next year by about 50 cents a gallon and every year thereafter to aid in “clean air efforts”. The price increase does not include the existing gas tax in the state. Now get this…now they are planning a mileage tax because they say the EVs are not paying gas taxes, so they too will be assessed a new tax to help pay for the maintenance of deteriorating infrastructure.
The deteriorating infrastructure and an array of mandates, including vaccine and mask mandates, added to the growing list of grievances.
Add to that the insane idea that somehow raising the minimum wage will help the poor. Workers in areas where the minimum wage was increased were thrilled at the prospect of more money. Then reality hit. They were no longer eligible for subsidized housing, paid child care, Medicaid and food stamps. Many of them ended up with LESS income than before. Minimum wage jobs were not intended to be career choices. They were entry level jobs and first jobs for teenagers, not illegal aliens. They were intended for those entering the job market to purchase gas for their cars and acne medication…not subsidized lifetime employment.
The mismanagement and corruption in all levels of government, epitomized by the controversial high-speed rail project, and a proposed mileage tax, were the final straws that led me, as a fourth-generation Californian, to make the difficult choice to leave the state in search of a better future for my employees and my family.
After retaining counsel, and discussing options with my family and my employees, I decided to make the move from Commifornia to Texas for several compelling reasons. At the outset, one of the most striking differences I noticed was the friendliness of the people in Texas. Texans are renowned for their warm hospitality and welcoming nature, which made the transition to a new state much smoother and more enjoyable. It's not uncommon to strike up conversations with strangers and be met with a genuine, friendly demeanor that I found refreshing.
Additionally, Texas boasts several other advantages, such as better schools, improved infrastructure, and the absence of both income and corporate taxes. The quality of education in Texas is notably high, which was a significant consideration for my family and my employees. Better roads not only make commuting more convenient but also contribute to the overall quality of life. The absence of state income and corporate taxes is a considerable financial benefit, allowing residents to retain more of their hard-earned money. Moreover, a new proposition in Texas to lower property taxes further solidified my decision to move, demonstrating the state's commitment to reducing the financial burden on its residents. In essence, Texas offers a blend of practical advantages and a unique sense of pride and community that I've come to cherish.
Sure, people will bring up problems facing Texas, but what amazed me, Texans aren’t afraid to face them head on. An individual still has a voice in Texas.
I always hear the same, rebuttal…the beaches, the mountains, the desert, the climate…and my response; my ancestors left Europe to find freedom and prosperity…I have left Commifornia for the same reasons, plus, I’m surrounded by people who think like I do!
I have absolutely no regrets leaving Commifornia.
Nobody asked you!
Nobody cares!
California, New York and Illinois are doing the wrong things. Florida and Texas are not doing the wrong things. Not doing is the key. . .

@@Guitarlvr01That's definitely not true.

Asheville is a leftist, hippie, cesspool and Nashville is marching quickly towards liberal anarchy
You’ll be sorry for inviting them in. Texas here.
Not only NO but hell no!
I think I speak for everyone in the Midwest when I say... C'mon San Andreas!! 12.9 baby

Anytime the government subsides something the price tag goes. Just like college tuition
I love your new intro so much that I never skip it.
As much as I can't this sleazeball, he is spot on!!
War with our wallets! Move capital and boycotts!
New subscriber here. I love your branding and intro video. Very stylish.
Dave, please tell me you didn’t pay him. That dude is a FRAUD! I’m disappointed. This guy does not need a platform, he needs a cell.
Grant Cardone is right. According to the U.S. Census Bureau in 2022, California gained 475,803 residents but lost 817,669 residents. However, in 2023 California's population increased by 67,000 people according to new data released today by the California Department of Finance (DOF). The California DOF says that the state's population growth can be attributed to an increase in LEGAL FOREIGN IMMIGRATION and natural population increasing. However, people moving into the state by making false “Asylum” claims are technically “legal” immigrants. Hispanics are now the largest racial group in the state comprising over 40 percent of the population. In recent years California has been losing about one percent of their long-time population every year but that population has been replaced by new immigrants moving into the state so the overall population numbers are misleading. In reality, millions of the most productive, tax-paying citizens are moving out of the state and they are being replaced by millions of immigrants who have little or no job skills and are likely to become dependent on taxpayer-funded welfare and social benefits. The tax payers are moving out and the tax takers are moving in. That system is mathematically unsustainable and is doomed to accelerating failure.
So i muted that intro so obnoxious.
"When I moved, I cost the state $10 million a year in property taxes." NO, NOT TRUE. You might have sold your properties, and you aren't paying the property taxes, but whomever you sold them to is paying them instead, and probably more if they appreciated while you owned them. They only lose on income taxes if you move. This is very sloppy thinking for someone who is supposed to be smart. Wow.
How much revenue (I love when the Gov't uses that term) lose when Carl Icahn left NYC?
Long time Oregon resident here, always in the minority...but I smell a sea change in this state.
My radar screams every time Grant Cardone pops up on my screen. Plus he's a scientologist
He’s the epitome of arrogance.
In Bayonne NJ pd over $14,000/ yr and now so overcrowded/ overbuilding can't handle schools, traffic, hosp, rds crowded, increased crime, terrible smelling pollution, influx arms, drugs... not worth it
Dave! Grant Cardone? Do your research on GC and Scientology.
Oh no don’t tell me he does Scientology
@@Guitarlvr01 not only does he do Scientology… he is a major donor up there with Tom Cruise.
@@Prettypeachylife that’s such a disappointment. WOW.
Bigots.
@@theScienceLabLivetypical Scientology remark. That’s all you got
3:45 I left Calif. in 2010 and moved to the Philippines. If I absolutely had to move back to the USA it would be Florida or Texas.
I live in crazy Oregon, it's all ideology nothing else matters. They are so far left that it literally blinds them to the pain they cause to the ordinary citizen.
Meditate for courage, mass together with like minded folks, and force the 'eye opening'!
Liberals tend to think of money as something that is magically created and not taxed from hard working middle class. They live in a world of theory, not practicality.
Born and raised in PDX, now I live in Seattle…..ugh. Can’t wait to get out of here.
They aren't blind to the pain they cause us, they want us gone.
Maybe we should fight.
NYC has the worst traffic ever. So if everyone is running for an exit where are all these damn vehicles coming from? NJ? Rent is skyrocketing too. What happened to all the forecasted vacancies?
build the walls
Love this channel. Hating the new intro though.
He pulled out of a half-million dollar real estate deal in NYC? Half-million? What was he investing in? A porta potty?
He clearly said billion.
David, we love you! Yeshua is calling you. He loves you so much. Keep standing for truth.
Grant is a scientologist so idk if i want to follow and or support him personally, but go Trump.
The problem with other people's money is...eventually you run out of other people's money. Money goes where it's appreciated. The lack of money is the root of all evil. A fool and his money are soon parted. I'd like to live as a poor man with lots of money. Men make counterfeit money; in many more cases money makes counterfeit men. Friendship is like money, easier made than kept.
Grant's not in prison yet?
I agree. He is not a good person. He is a greedy scum bag!!
Scammatologist!
Interest rates are NOT too high, prices are too high. Malinvestment happens whenever interest rates are driven too low.
damn i cant watch grant man you lost me here i dont respect this guy in ant way shape or form.
The problem is that if we federally follow the same footsteps that California did, investors....and wealth....and assets....and innovation are going to wholesale leave the country. Which I think is ultimately kind of their goal. I like to try to give people the benefit of the doubt....or that it's just ignorance to the outcomes of their good intentions.......but I just don't really think it's the case anymore. It's hard not to conclude that it's coming from nefarious intentions now.
It's a shame you platform Grant Cardone. Plenty of others who could make the same point without his baggage.
OMG he's got a theme song. Cool beans
