175: Exploring the Economic Impact of Demographic Decline, Future of Societal Collapse, Asset Value & Cultural Communities with Malcolm Collins

Today Jason welcomes Malcolm Collins, a former venture capitalist and private equity investor. Together they discuss the economic impact of demographic decline. They explore various topics, including the declining fertility rates in countries like South Korea, the US, and China, and the potential consequences for the economy. Collins emphasizes that the current economic system is built on the presumption of constant growth, driven by a rising population, and highlights the unsustainability of the current trends. He also delves into the sociological forces contributing to demographic decline, such as the urban monoculture and the economic pressures faced by individuals. Collins argues that capitalism, while a powerful system, is not well-equipped to address the long-term value of adding humans to the system. Additionally, he challenges the notion that immigration can solve the demographic decline issue, pointing out the complexities and potential dependencies it creates. The conversation touches on the importance of foresight, the role of children as future workers and contributors to the economy, and the broken state of modern dating markets, societal changes, economic collapse, the future, the broken marketplace in terms of relationships and the value people place on themselves. They also touch on the Mormon culture and its sense of community. The conversation then shifts to the decline in fertility rates and its impact on the economy. They explore how traditional ways of storing assets may not be effective in a collapsing population scenario. They speculate on the future value of assets and highlight the importance of building communities and cultural groups in a shrinking world. The discussion concludes with a mention of AI and its potential role in the posthuman world. Malcolm encourages listeners to think ahead and adapt to the upcoming societal change. #manufactureyourluck #creatingwealth #wealthcreation #uncertaintimes #demographicdecline #fertilityrates #economicimpact #constantgrowth #unsustainability #sociologicalforces #urbanmonoculture #economicpressures #futureworkers #datingmarkets Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com
