[13:54] The Infographics Show: The Business Deception That Cost $60 Billion

[16:59] The phrase "financial innovation" is a red flag when you hear it

Today's Flash Back Friday comes from Episode 997, originally published in May 2018.

Jason Hartman starts off the show with client Doug about portfolio makeovers, why you should stay in the game for the long run, and the fallacy of the passive investment. Doug got out of the real estate business just before the (positive) market correction and missed out on a lot of money.

Then, Jason finishes his client case study with Muthiah. This time the two look at the actual process of Muthiah filing a claim against a bad provider and how he was about to get restitution after some avenues had failed. Jason also explains how to get a hold of his Hall of Shame resource list, and why you should file complaints even if they're not likely to help you alone.

Key Takeaways:

[5:05] There's no such thing as a passive investment, but there are some things that are easier

[9:16] If you do the math properly, real estate versus the stock market isn't even a competition

[12:15] The problem with being too passive is you don't learn from your successes or failures

[20:00] Muthiah has never tried to self manage his current 20 properties
