b'The overall health of the US economy affects jobs, incomes and asset values - including investment real estate. \\xa0Throughout one of the most hotly contested presidential elections in recent memory, economic policy has been a central theme. \\xa0\\nAt their convention, the Democrats invoked the spirit (and oration) of ex-President Bill Clinton, while the GOP conjures up visions of Reaganomics. Dire predictions of fiscal cliffs, defaults, hyper-inflation, depression, civil unrest and other calamities fuel the debate. \\xa0It seem that everyone has an opinion.\\nBut what does history say? \\xa0\\nTo find out, we sit down with Dr. Jeffrey Hummel, a professor of both economics and history. \\xa0We think both are important to providing the context for our investing decisions. So grab your note pad and listen in! \\xa0\\nThe Real Estate Guys\\u2122 radio show provides real estate investing news, education, training and resources to help real estate investors succeed. \\xa0Learn more and subscribe to the free newsletter at www.realestateguysradio.com'
