The Mark Simone Show on 710 WOR.

Well, we like to bring you the smartest people on earth, and Steve Forbes is one of them.

Steve Forbes, Chairman of Forbes Media, and you should get his latest book.

It's an excellent book.

You should read this book.

It's called Inflation, and there's no better book on the subject.

Steve Forbes, how you doing?

Doing fine today.

Good jobs report, and we're having, as you know, in the New York area heat wave in the 30s

after, you know, single-digit temperatures feel like getting out the sun lotion.

It's quite wonderful yeah shivering

so much job report was big it was much like double i could tell it was a good jobs number

because i have all the tv networks on i see no coverage of it so it must have been really good

well and uh just just a little note of caution uh the way they do seasonal adjustments and with all the government problems with numbers recently.

I'm waiting for February.

I think February and March will finally get some sanity back.

But the number, no denying the number that came in today was about two to three

times what the so-called experts are estimating so take what we can and certainly fourth quarter

growth looks pretty good there are some very big roadblocks ahead but that's true of the world

and but in the meantime things uh the arrows are green rather than red in terms of

the economy moving.

And enjoy it why you can, even if the weather's lousy.
