In this episode of the Creating Wealth Show, host Jason Hartman continues his conversation with Doug about practical portfolio reviews and makeovers for real‑estate investors, introducing a simple spreadsheet‑based framework that tracks assets, liabilities, cash‑flow and a metric he calls “return on equity” (ROE). They discuss the concept of “lazy money,” the importance of rebalancing, leveraging equity, 1031 exchanges, and how to turn equity into higher‑yielding investments. The episode then shifts to a guest interview with Dr. Éric Pichet, a French professor of wealth and real‑estate management. Pichet explains why real‑estate markets are fundamentally local, contrasts European and U.S. market dynamics, and categorises markets as linear, cyclical or hybrid, noting higher friction, taxation, language barriers and labor‑market rigidity in Europe. He also critiques cryptocurrency, likening the current Bitcoin boom to historic bubbles, arguing that Bitcoin lacks intrinsic value and will likely face tighter regulation and possible prohibition by central banks. Throughout, Jason promotes upcoming live portfolio‑review events in Philadelphia and a Venture Alliance weekend in New York.
