If you own investment real estate and haven’t looked seriously at cost segregation, you could be leaving significant tax savings on the table. The Cost Segregation Guys help investors accelerate depreciation, improve near-term cash flow, and make more efficient use of capital, all without changing the underlying asset. In a business where preserving cash matters, that’s worth paying attention to.

On today’s show, I am going to make the case that the US economy is already in recession and has been for some time. I’m going to further make the case that what is coming later this year is an even deeper recession. As you're listening to this, you might be thinking: Oh, come on Victor. The bureau of economic analysis is responsible for making the determination whether the economy is in recession or not. So far they have not produced any data to support your claim. I will be the first to acknowledge that fact.
