  • eric and randy gage - what more could we ask for?
    thanks randy for telling it how it is.
    matty patterson.
    de-leverage yourselves people!
  • You two have got to be just about the best leaders in the industry. I always get value out of your information. I personally think you are right, we are heading to a depression. Thank god for MLM.
  • Robert_Bo
    Great stuff, worth watching. Thank you.
  • Acnteam1
    Socialism is communism with lipstick haha so true
  • aliceflanders
    An advantage of network marketing is that people who are unable to hold other jobs can frequently do it also. People with medical conditions or other impediments to regular jobs.
  • Jonathan
    Safe is the new risky - enjoyed this being re-posted too. Enjoy Randy Gage.
  • jeanalbert
    Safe is the new risky!
  • crwood1967

  • martinvf

  • FedericoGrowthsperity
    This show is always worth a revisit... the loss of your voice is our gain!!!

    I know you are ok now, but still thanks!

    Federico
  • Always enjoy thoughts from Randy Gage...he's right we are facing changes in the economy and NWM is the best way for people to get ahead!
  • pech
    Safe is risky! So true. Reminds me about a good friend, who was employed in the public sector. He was fired 3 month before his 25 years anniversary in an age of 58. No funny situation.
  • Jessi
    Yes, you're right!
  • Great to hear it again !
  • jean_albert
    This program is more effective now then when you originally broadcasted it. Unfortunately, the economic forecast by Randy are coming true!
  • Simon_and_Lia_NL
    this conversation is so good, together you are both so strong,
    and
    after some time, the words become better... thank you both Randy/Eric!
  • Love this interview with Randy. He is indeed a ROCKSTAR of MLM like yourself!
    Thanks for bringing this back for us all to see again.

    Make it a great day!
    God Bless!

  • karenandian
    Thank you Eric & Randy! Safe is the new Risk. The good news is that the people that wasn't interested is now ready to have a look.
  • turjcxg
    Great advise. It helps to hear stories from you guys about the professionals you meet that are now open minded to our business. Sometimes we forget that.
  • Great chat. Love hearing from Randy Gage!
  • chipc
    looking forward to the next interview
  • hillin
    Randy Gage, he is probably the person who gives the most back to our profession next to Mr Worre, go take a look on his websites. Thank you Mr Gage.
  • It's about time people wake up and take control of their own life. We have the best way, we just need to share it and help them open their eyes to it.
  • karivankleef
    Great video to see again.
  • Ryan
    Go in from position of strength
  • BetterCoffee.dk

    Nothing like hearing it from Randy!
    I had this conversation with my dad last weekend and used your facts and outlook.
    It's very seldom that I see my dad dumbfounded.
    He didn't have a reply!
    He never saw it this way, but I gave him food for thought.
  • carolmcwilliams
    I appreciate how Randy helps me to think more globally about this business and how many of us need to shift our mindset to think in a new way about how to create New Freedoms. The world is changing and I want to keep myself thinking ahead of the curve so I can be better informed on how to open other peoples minds to a new way to live.
  • bartonmurray
    great to see Randy again...
  • bryantkeefe
    Perfect message for 2010. The "safe" is riskier than ever. Look at the continued financial news. If you are not taking care of your family then no one else will. The best course of action for 21st century is to get rich in your own business.
  • I've seen this one already! Hope you feel better soon!
  • I enjoy listening to Randy Gage again and again.
    I am lucky to have such incredible upline mentors like him and you Eric. Thank you for your time and energy. You change people's minds and you give vision on our profession of a networker. I very much appreciate it.
  • Darnell
    Wake up time!!
  • alltheverybest
    EVERYONE in NWM should see this interview
  • Randy Gage is always a pleasure to listen to.
  • krisic
    I love this one. I'm going to have my husband watch it! SAFE IS THE NEW RISKY!!!!
  • Lisette
    This is really a wake up call.
    If only people would understand what treasure this is.
  • i love the way Randy says that safe is the new risky...that point is so valid - if only people would just wake up.
  • CarlosVera
    Great show to watch over and over........
  • Bryan_in_KC
    Loved it the first time, loved it again!
  • carybennett
    Great show, this all looks so true about the new economy
  • Ria Leermakers
    Great to see this show again.
    It took me some time to realise Randy is completely right! Now I'm using his words to every prospect I talk to.
  • Still a classic show.
  • kgadol
    GREAT replay! Great info. How exciting to be learning and growing at this vital time. Thank you for your help!
  • smreed
    Another great repeat interview! There is nothing safe about thinking one can stay long term in a system that no longer works the way it used to. Yes safe is the new risky!
  • bethascoli
    Amazing that you guys did this interview last year and time has proven that what you were predicting was true - the message is even more relevant today.
  • raybeattie
    Safe is risky, the economy has changed, now is the time to move.
  • Confidence in your business is key. You must project confidence when talking with and approaching people. This is the new economy, and we all need to embrace it.
  • keithraines
    Randy is right safe is risky
  • seija
    Great info
  • 1. Safe is the new risky.
    2. Rules have changed.
    3. Economy have changed.
    Let's go to everyone about our NM profession. I think it is the greatest profession in the world!
  • Agneta Rebo
    Good as always!
  • TAbrams
    Times are "a Changing"... Love an industry that pays you based on performance, and production... Results based... Take charge, learn to build your asset for income and take your life back. Control and own your destiny in the new economy.

    There is no "Safe"... Anyone who invented "Job Insurance" would be a trillionaire over the past few years.

    So many people need to but cannot expand their comfort zone.

    We have a better way... Now let's go tell the world!!
  • germanjaramillo
    Yes we have in this moment the most important oportunuty to grow in our financial life.

    Network Marketing is growing up and we are just having that mission.
    -GJ
  • This was a good one
  • It's scary when you see so many people looking to the government to make their lives better. I heard someone say that if the government's the answer, we're not asking the right question. In fact people are putting the head in the sand hoping that things will get better.

    What most people don't realize is that the old way is gone. I agree that there are great times ahead for those people who take charge of their lives. These are the people that will flourish in the new economy.
  • gkamlm
    Well said Randy, now let's go tell everyone.
  • Ahhh yes we have the better way! Need I say more!
  • Mailen
    Hei. This is great.
  • mrmauriocrawford
    Great stuff Eric!
  • mrmauriocrawford
    Great stuff Eric!
  • SJ Doug
    I am sharing this with a few of my none MLM Pro friends
  • Dee_Canada
    Indeed these are times that will force people to open their eyes and really see that the world is changed. Let`s go share our gift with them all! :0)
  • caronwashington
    Definitely one of my favorite ones...Randy Gage knows his stuff and its evident. Safe is definitely the new risky and people better be putting others plans in place now. After 5pm is what creates wealth
  • Tarashon Broomes
    randy gage is the best. he's definitely right we are sliding into a depression. safe is the new risky and no one is secure
  • susanclark
    #307 - Randy Gage on MLM in the New Economy - Safe is the new risky. We need to accept the new economy. We need to be bold and aggressive; start a network marketing business if we have not done so.
  • pollyhulseman
    Another great reminder of where we are in our economy.
  • Dylan Cooper
    Some jobs will never come back. Now that is motivation to look at something new!
  • yitz613
    Safe is the new risky. Unfortunate reality, and yet this is our opportunity in our industry today.
  • jlt0wn
    Still good points. Thank you.
  • Ngoc Tran
    Love to hear RG’s message again and again. There’s so much wisdom. Thanks Eric for your re-post as a great reminder. Love!
  • dougharkins
    the economy has changed and were not going back.
  • Daniel Glez.Peña
    Hola Eric, Excelent Interview with 2 guys of my company Wow It´s good to see it again, congrats to both of you.
    Saludos.
    Daniel y Natali, Querétaro, México.
  • Vonnita2010
    There is no doubt that around the world MLM is the only way.... yet it is so hard for some people to see it or is it just that they are too afraid of getting out of their safe zone????
  • talya_mitzafon
    Safe is the new risky!
    Very important lesson.
  • hcapcarp
    Sounds like an old Dylan song the times they are a changin. Results based compensation is the better way.
  • rmonte
    Amazing perspective. Let's do it!
  • Bjorgli
    Good start. I'm looking forward .........
  • hlj521
    Thank you Eric and Randy! What a powerful message!!!
  • janetrajala
    Another great interview. Totally agree that the economy is changing, however, people don't always change as fast as technology does. They must often be led in the right direction of growth. That is where the network marketing pro steps in--and we are ready to lead the charge, thanks to you, Eric.
  • Thanks Eric & Randy....just finished Kiyosaki's new book "Busienss of the 21st Century last night"....he talked a lot about building assets......well, you both are a TREMENDOUS asset to the Networking community & profession. Thanks for being a Go-Giver and sharing with the entire community and not just keeping that to your particular downline or company.
  • Inger
    Good to see this again, people need to be reminded.
  • chriskemp817
    Results based compensation. That's what we got!
  • Celebrating my 100 comment, by listening to this is like having a birthday-cake....

    I will blow out all the candles, increase my dreams, and increase my effort to become a self-made millionaire. =)
    Wishing everyone a nice day!
  • Dee_Canada
    Congratulations!! :0)
  • Donna Wheaton
    Thank you Eric and Randy. I always enjoy when Randy is on the show with his words of wisdom.
  • jlconner
    Great info. Thanks Eric and Randy
  • "Socialism is Communism with lipstick" we have had our fill of that here in the UK. We have a better way.
  • veronikakari
    I understand, but I would say that it does not work in countries with strong social system - the goverment will not cut your right to get doctors care and so on. So attitude is different.
  • jerryscribner
    Classic
  • tomlacey
    Maybe even better the second time around. Thanks for all of these different insights into our world.
  • eddyoshaughnessy
    " The rules have changed " - thats for sure , I have seen that up close here in Ireland , very grateful for my NM business
  • Earl
    Thanks for the great Re-message from Mr. Randy Gage! It was wonderful to hear again!

    It is important that we remember that when the stock market comes back, the mass of jobs will not be coming back like before. PLUS, Too many things will have changed that will make bosses think twice before they hire anyone back, and then the pay won't be the same as before... Ironically, it will be paid more like Network Marketing (performance based pay) but you won't get the upsides of Network Marketing.
  • peterragg
    Randy says it just like you Eric. We have an ostrich approach to what is happening in the world especially in the UK. People's pensions have been decimated, people will have to work till they drop. We certainly have a better way.
    Kind regards
    Peter Ragg
  • Its always great to learn from the two legends of the industry.
  • "Socialism is Communism with lipstick" (brilliant!). Love reading and listening to Randy Gage here and on Twitter - he freely expresses a lot of sense but he also has the emotional intelligence to do it with sensitivity - tough love.
  • The Timing is perfect for Network Marketing!
  • latachia_2
    MLM in The New Economy Show#307
    Safe is the new riskey!Be bold aggresive,take charge & be pro-active.
    Go back & recheck your list for people that their circumstances may have changed.Thes times have changed& they may now be candiditates.Have posture.
    Economy is not ever going to be the same as before ever again.
    They may just have monkeys,dogs or even clones to take your place in the new work world! Safe is the new riskey!
  • ronaldvandomburg
    times are changing. good to see this show again. Thanks Erik and Randy
  • MarvinTowler
    Randy made some powerful points. I had no idea that he was such a student of history. Very impressive!!!
  • Matt Genet
    Safe is the new risky! Still love that advice.
  • claralondono
    Going toward result based compensation in every business and we are in that spin already. Thank you Randy and Eric.
  • Hi Eric glad you have your voice back. Looking forward to the interviews with Randy Gage.

    I think MLM is going to see a paradigm shift for the positive.
  • dstfa96
    Thx Eric and Randy this was great info...Safe definitely is the new risky and once people who are in the dark start to see the light they will seek us and see that what we have to offer in our profession of network marketing will provide a secure financial future for generations to come.
  • tambry
    Good message. Can't wait until the next show!
  • coltsco
    I liked this whole series that you did with Randy. It was great to see this one again, and I especially like "safe is the new risky".
  • Eric, Better than the first time I heard it. Looking forward to the next show as always.
  • tommycone
    #307- Thanks looking forward to up coming shows.
  • racingworm
    Still no voice? You don't need it with replays like this one. Great episode again for a refresher course. Hope you feel better soon.
  • HoracioMejia
    There is a reason for everything. For me, these two shows, while you are out of voice, have refreshed my thoughts on network marketing. I think you should use this shows every once in a while just to touch base once again and continue growing. Take care.
  • juanfernandogutierrez
    another great interview
  • maariee
    Great show and very interesting! Thank you Eric and Randy
  • Miguel Cortez
    I Got more of this Episodes... or is it that im grow and have a greater understanding... :)
  • germarl
    Great insight...
  • theuns
    Eric and Randy Thanks i cant wayt fro the rest of the week you Rock
  • You guys are the ultimate 1-2 punch for NWM training ... thanks Eric!
  • I so much prefer the term candidate list rather than prospect list. Safe is the new risky is an interesting perspective. Great interview. Thanks Eric and Randy!
  • Wow, Eric and Randy, so powerful today! We do have a better way. You can't trust your boss or society to take care of you, you need to provide for yourself. That's just the way it is. Thanks for showing us the way! / Linda, Sweden
  • I look forward to all of the trainings with you and Randy.

    A new economy calls for a new approach, as people are scrambling to save money and earn more money.
  • rasdaniels
    Powerful interview, thanks
  • So many forecasts in this interview- results-based compensation, safe is the new risky, jobs aren't coming back.
    When I heard this interview the first time I said "yeah, right" in disbelief. Sounded self-serving and all. Hearing this again today (and hearing content expressed in this interview elaborated upon in the remarkable GoPro Series) it's "Yeah!...Right ON!"
  • I liked it before, I like it now! Maybe there's a playlist that is a good prospecting list of videos....?
  • Wait- forget it- I see "The NEW Economy" on the list here...
  • grantkhary
    True...Changing Rapidly! (2)
  • heatherbrocklehurst
    This is a powerful message. Get really good at delivering it NOW. People are joining us like never before and if they aren't joining you they are joining someone else.
  • fc34615
    Two of the most inspiring individual in front of the camera sharing some amazing thoughts = priceless.

    Thanks,
    Fernando.
  • Katie N
    I have heard alot about Randy Gage-he seems like a wise man. Look forward to the rest of Gage week,unless this is a rerun that I missed first time around.
  • alltheverybest
    It is a rerun! But the good news is you can listen to the rest of that week by going to the index of all videos (top left of page) and The Randy Gage week is #34-39 - you are in for a treat!
  • frankbarrett
    Hot!! Heard Randy talk about this before. But this is HOT, so talk to people about the new economy.
  • mspaulamc
    WE have the answer ... get good at articulating MLM and what it is and what it is not.. that is my daily mission :) Randy Gage is cool :)
  • Be BOLD PEOPLE!!! Make waves, change lives, empower each other. Thanks Eric, hope you are feeling better! :) hot tea, honey & lemon...
  • kgoren
    "Be bold. Be agressive. This is the time to take charge of your own prosperity"
  • Always love hearing from Randy!
  • brigittapatel
    Thank you ! Great interview.
  • Thanks once again, this is indeed another good one to pass along.
  • garyparmenter
    It is always good to review. You and Randy have such great insight. Hope your feeling better.
  • Amazing !! I like each word you say, Eric and Randy !

    Thanks so much !
  • Good stuff. You have a vast library to cover for you when your speechless.
  • NANCY Eldred
    For only 10 minutes this interview with Randy Gage is packed full of so much valuable information and truth. It's very uplifting - thanks alot guys
  • Marion
    I enjoyed this series first time round - great to hear it again - I am going to listen to the rest of it now.
    Thanks Eric, I hope you are feeling better:)
  • Randy Gage & you, often, remind us that you never went to college yet, you both sound knowledgeable, well educated.
    School prepares us to be good employees, shapes our wings, just so, to be "specialized".
    Life either cuts your wings off or allows you to spread them as wide as your imagination...No, It is not life but you who decide: Just do it!!
    Wonderful next door guys!!
  • margarethockaday
    Safe is the new risky and outsourcing and technology is replacing the high paying positions.
  • gillym1
    Nice to see RANDY again!
  • The most important jobs of 2012 have not been invented yet. You can't train for them...

    There may be an advance that eliminates 5 jobs for every new one it creates. Go PRO.
  • jeffreyhall
    It is some important to build the relationships and not turn people off. You never know when their circumstances will change or when they will be ready. If you have build their confidence, they will com to you or be willing to listen.
  • Perfect timing as always Eric...just had a conversation with a relative who is working 3 jobs "waiting for times to change". Before Go Pro I would have written them off but now I'm dusting off my contact list. Looking forward to the next edition. Thanks
  • Ernesto_Busnelli
    Buckled up and helmet on for the rest of the week.
  • Kjell Englund
    Interesting thoughts. Thanks Eric and Randy
  • Jillian
    Interesting how relevant Randy's predictions are about 1 year later. Thanks for the reminder. I hope you are feeling better.
  • ritafulton
    I enjoy Randy Gage. "socialism is just Communisim with lipstick"..GREAT STUFF! Looking forward, as always, to this week. at NWM PRo.
  • Thanks for bringing this one back. Good message. *dusting off the candidate list*
  • #307 Interview with Randy Gage
    A fun quote that I took away from this interview is:
    “Socialism is Communism with lipstick.” - Randy Gage
    A memorable quote worth sharing is: “Safe is the new risky.”
  • hpena
    This show makes me want to rewatch every episode. These past 2 shows reemphasize the mission we're on; to save people lives from the traps we find ourselves in.

    Nando
  • Steve_Nelson
    Recession or depression..... either way you name it, loads of people are losing jobs. I'm going to keep showing my opportunity
  • Gakungu
    "Socialism is like communism with lipstick." That was catchy. Randy is right. We need to be more bold and aggressive(in a good solid way) in network marketing and take charge. Great story about clone monkeys!
  • MagnusEdvald
    It is a very good reminder, thanks.
  • Safe is the new risky!
  • At my company if the could replace us with monkeys the would.
  • Episode 98 of Eric Worre's 100 Episode Throw Down Challenge:

    One year later and what Randy and you talk about still ring true. Safe IS the new risky and and the economy has shifted and will never be the same. Only this time, the economy has made it's shift internationally with dozens of countries being hit at once vs one or two countries at a time. From a historical perspective we in the major economic powers are going through the pains that will eventually be defined as the beginning of the next economic era and those countries on the level below that will move up to their next era... if not now, soon.

    May the force be with you,

    BB
  • Cee_G
    Powerful show. Always enjoy Randy's words of wisdom. Looking forward to the rest of the week.
  • Absolutely one of my favourite show so far. It's so true everything mr Gage tell us. Love you guys, you two are the best leaders inside our profession. Best regards from your biggest fan.
  • The fundamentals don't change. Anyone employed or even self employed is sitting on a ticking time bomb. It's only a matter of time until it goes off with no way out.
  • soxfan071
    Safe is the new risky! The old list is the new list of prospects for our NM business. Thanks Eric
  • 307:
    Safe IS the new Risky!
    So true and happening everywhere!
    This new economy needs everyone to make a change, a step, because no one else will take care of it!
    Not the governement, not the corporation!
    WE, YOU - have to take hands on YOUR future!
    Take care
    Luc
  • Paco_Carreno
    I love this show... In Spain the goverment has recently decreased goverment's employees salaries by 5% all across the country and froze the retirment payments. At the same time thousands less job position as goverment's employee are being offered but much more people are applying... So what else you want to experience to realize that Safe is the New Risky
  • Safe is the new risky! Time to ramp it up and share the good news of Network Marketing!
  • Mark_Abrahams_UK
    NMPRO#307 The Eric and Randy combination on show - as great leaders in this industry...how lucky are we? People who are new to network marketing, entering at a time when the training and leadership is second to none, must quickly come to terms with just how lucky we are. OK, so we can plan our own luck but, being in, doing and having 21st century communication and resources, all the 3rd party tools we could possibly want, how great is that? And when all the factors are coinciding to make this business even more stone cold factually correct (if that is even possible) that we have a better way, then our job is simply ‘go tell the world’. Listen to the 'man' and then listen to the other 'man' - what they say is the truth. As Winston Churchill said, "the truth is incontrovertible,....."

    Thanks again Eric, thanks Randy
  • mariasiro
    Interesting!
  • Foord Yates
    Randy is always awesome and awe-inspiring! Good show!

  • Erik
    Yes I remember this show, and I think Mr Gage is right.
  • I'm looking forward to the rest of the week.
    ~
  • Great! looking forward to it!
  • Wow, first time I've heard a network marketer talk about hyperinflation and the gold standard and depression. Loved it, thanks for the input.
