  1. Wealthy? This guy has no clue what inflation is and how our monetary system is one big ponzi scheme. Wealthy, lol…GTFOH

  2. “Wealth by mistake”??? Someone should tell this guy owning a home has been the best way to accumulate wealth for centuries. This has been well known for a long time.

  3. The anchor lets “Canadian homeowners got ‘wealthy by mistake'” go completely unchallenged. THIS is the issue with COORPERATE news. This side says this… That side says that… Who’s right? who’s telling you the truth? YOU decide! They strive so hard to be “fair, balanced” they forget their job is to be OBJECTIVE to the truth. Regardless of what side, or more importantly what business or advertiser it upsets.

    1. After seeing the coverage of covid vaccines during the pandemic, the news just looks like an infomercial to me now.

  4. But Tom, did YOU get wealthy by ‘mistake’ by selling the homes of homeowners selling their home that they have had for a long time? By ‘mistake’ Tom?

    1. even if Toronto real estate crashed 50% how many would have a CASH downpayment to buy? not much thus you’ll own nothing and be happy.

    1. Wow! Nicely said indeed no doubt Mrs Evelyn Vera is the best step to take following the current situation of the world economy, I have never believed in Bitcoin or crypto currency in all, but this has been a life changing encounter today!!

    2. This is the kind of information that we don’t get from most Youtubers I will get in touch with her right now.

    3. I’m so happy for taking the bold step in investing a little start up capital with after a week I received my profits to my bank.

  5. The cash buyer was likely an investor. A client who bought the seller’s next home was also an investor. Investors coming in with cash, overpaying, and inflating the market. Families looking to buy getting pushed out because it is no longer affordable.

    1. I began investing REIT’s made enough profit in a year to buy rental an parking lots and I’m investing in reit an my real estate property which brings in roughly $480k annually.🙂🥰

    2. To build wealth and gain financial independence. Start Investing, that’s the only true way to accumulate great income and stay rich always. Really spent my 30’s and 40’s investing in stock and real estate. That’s the best decision I made earlier. Lately, discovered cry-pto now and life feels better and easier.

  6. I < must say that you are the most erudite and smart analyst in the crypto space. First of all, you're just awesome! I've been following for months now and the cinematic videos, excellent insight and comedic tone is outstanding. Before anything else, I would like to say that no one can exactly predict in days how long a bear or bull market could last or how low and high the prices can go, but we can try to make predictions using past events, I think prices should run up a lot now, punishing panic sellers and forced sellers. Most new tradrs struggle at first to make sense of the markets and how to put their portfolio in a position to flourish. Many try to start on their own and quickly end up with a string of losses, slowly seeing their accounts dwindle to what it started off as. Everyone is looking at bitcoin price action from a 2021 bull run perspective. Everything has changed…we are in a recession, facing stagflation, rising rates, energy shortages driving food and living costs through the roof breaking the backs of consumers.

    1. I’m going to be pulling out another 5BTC today for the 3rd time this month, This program really exciting! I’m crazy excited to have him.

    2. My growing love for crypto caused me to explore until I came across Richard Byrne (although I’m trying to avoid sensationalism) Richard is by far the best. No hype for hype’s sake, but great inspiration to trade Crypto

    3. The economy is heading towards recession and having a diversify portfolio will be complementary at the moment..

    4. I was down on Binance with over 70% but miracle happened with a great analysis from Richard Byrne and I reentered the market and just like that I was 200% up in profit

    5. Mr, Richard boosted my portfolio from 0.5BTC to 6BTC in two months, I couldn’t be more appreciative.
