2026-04-27 Retirement Lifestyle Advocates Radio w/ Kerry Lutz

Is the U.S. economy heading into a stagflationary environment? In this interview on Kerry Lutz’s Financial Survival Network, Dennis Tubbergen discusses why he believes inflation may continue rising even as economic growth slows. He explains why that combination could create a miserable economic backdrop, with higher prices in the things people need to buy and lower prices in the assets they already own. The conversation also explores gold and silver, concerns about market manipulation in precious metals, skepticism toward Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as long-term stores of value, and why capital continues to migrate toward states where it is treated more favorably. This interview is essential listening for anyone interested in stagflation, precious metals, the U.S. dollar, crypto, taxation, migration trends, and wealth protection. Kerry Lutz has been a student of Austrian Economics since 1977. While attending Pace University, he stumbled upon an extensive cache of Austrian Economic Literature in a dark, musty, abandoned section of the school’s library. After graduating from The New York Law School, he became an attorney and lifelong serial entrepreneur. In 2010, Kerry gave up most of his other interests to pursue his desire to become a radio show host and founded the Financial Survival Network, whose mission is to help you prosper and thrive in the New Economy.
