Tony Robbins: The Next 36 Months Will Change Everything | PBD Podcast #860

I think we're going to have a crisis, there's no question about it.

Patrick Bet-David (0:03)

I'm worried about something worse than a recession. I believe we are currently on the brink. Depression is kind of what he's talking about.

You created the mess we're in, and now you're saying, sorry.

Tony Robbins (0:14)

If I said to you, there's going to be more change in the next 10 years to humanity than all of humanity's history. Do you buy that or not buy that? Forget the 10 years, what's going to happen next 36 months?

We're going to have AGI. There's zero question, some say we have it now, meaning one AI has more power and more understanding in mathematics or chemistry than any human. In five to six years, we're going to have superintelligence.

China gets it, they take over the world. Whoever gets quantum will control the other's military. We don't have to have the bombs, we can just get the codes and blow them up where they are. And there's robotics. Within 10 years, there will be more robots than there probably are humans. Just think about electricity. 10 years from now, labor will be like electricity. In 2008, we lost 8 million jobs, almost destroyed the American economy. What's going to happen in the next 36 months? There will be a point where there will be no truck drivers, no taxi drivers, no Uber drivers. You're not going to be replaced by an AI, you're going to be replaced by someone who knows how to use an AI.

Now, we have politicians on both sides that take advantage of whatever's going on in the environment for more power. It has nothing to do with what serves the American people. The information age died a long time ago. We're drowning in information. We're starving for wisdom.

So I'm going to ask you an indirect way of helping our guys, our production team that works so hard get a raise. Do you want to help them get a raise? This is how you can help us out.

49% of you watch our podcasts that our editors work so hard. Producers, cutters, all of them, our production team, 32 of them that work here, they work very, very hard to deliver a good quality to you. If you enjoy our show and you want to help this thing get bigger, so we can take our talent that we have in-house, that support this production all the time and maybe even give them a raise, then please subscribe to the channel that allows us to get more viewership and indirectly it makes bigger opportunities for our current team that we have. Thank you so much. Our goal today is to get better with investment. So who we brought in today is the great Tony Robbins. Every once in a while, I can introduce people with the great. And Tony qualifies. He's the greatest in the space. So we have the great Tony Robbins back. And we have Christopher, not Chris, Christopher Zuch here back with us. I have to qualify that because it's very important to make sure we say that. He was back here with us today. And you got a great story on how you went from having a half a billion dollars of money under management, you've been following Personal Power for many, many decades, and then all of a sudden Tony invests in your company. You don't even know about it even though you've been following him for nearly 30 years.

And then you get even more involved. And then now you guys got nearly $14 billion or so of money under management, which is an amazing story. So our goal is for our audience to get smarter today. So I'd like to start with a game. If you can see what you have in front of you, you have a buy, sell and hold sign in front of you. I'm going to go through different investments, OK? And we're going to start off with value right off the bat, and then we'll get into it. So, gold, do you buy, sell or hold gold today? What do you do?

Hold. You're hold, you're buy.

Tony Robbins (3:26)

But I think the answer to all your questions, they're being asked in the wrong order. The dog bit Johnny, Johnny bit the dog.

Same elements, different sequence, different result. You can't have an answer to this question if you don't know what your outcomes are. And you have to know what your asset allocation is. So right now, for example, if you don't have anything that's covered in that category, which I have very little, honestly, then it might be an area that you might want to consider because it's something that's changing but based on inflation. But all the answers you're going to ask for here are basically based on that individual's real needs. If you start making a generalization about it, we're going to give people the wrong advice.
