@girdley Came from sales but new to CRE, so I used AI to practice cold calls and negotiation. I’d set the scenario and personality, then live talk it out to sharpen skills on drives. Huge help.
“Please be an owner of a Class A center who gets calls daily and hates cold calls.”

Where are you using AI in your business now?
Where does it work? Where didn't it work?

@zachmelloh26 What a great one liner “protect, not growth wealth”! Love it
English
Insurance products are built to protect, not grow wealth.
When you use an insurance product as an investment, they often come with:
• High fees
• Low returns
• Limited flexibility
• Complex structures
If your goal is growth, invest in markets.
If your goal is protection, buy insurance.
Be skeptical of mixing the two.

@SteveOnSpeed Getting in shape is tougher. Every day you have habits you need to break which took years to build. You can do the barest minimum financially and come out okay
English
Which one is tougher:
Getting wealthy or getting into the best shape of your life?

@hybridathlete I recently bought a Peloton with it being colder out to replace with running cardio this Fall. I can attest to having biked for more than a month, my long runs are WAY easier.
Question though - what type of cycling? I’ve been doing 30 min HIIT and feel good
English
Want to get better at running?
Bike more.
Seriously, if you’re a hybrid athlete or just new to running, biking is a great way to build endurance with minimal injury risk.
It's also a great way to add additional aerobic volume for higher mileage runners without increasing chances of injury.
Running is high impact.
And most people new to running are not in good enough shape to keep running truly easy.
Biking fixes that.
Everyone can bike "easy."
Biking is particuarly usefull for lifters just getting into running and anyone that is "heavy" (even if lean!).
It's much easier to manage intensity and ensure you are getting the correct training effect.

@girdley We need AI to remove all the sponsored ads on google search and LinkedIn feed. I feel like I’m drowning just trying to look something up
English
Someone should invent an AI to automate the two hours required to sift through all these Airbnb listings, each with 80 photos.
"Book this one, bro."

Guys… a few things to take away from this
1. AI is wrong is often. Adding an LLC doesn’t change the tax planning you can do
2. People need to be humbled. So many think they know what they’re talking about and will constantly argue with great tax professionals. This guy has doubled down like 10x calling people names,, etc. and he could be more wrong
This is why you avoid advice from both AI and people you know
They have such strong beliefs somehow about something they don’t even understand

I marked 35 years at Olive today. One of my greatest encouragers is Dr Jerry Passmore. He pastored Olive for 17 yrs before I came in 1990. #blessed

@MattLaciskey Love the use of CD ladders, especially now! The tide seems to always sway back and forth between this strategy. Just recently did a bunch of recommendations for these
English
Cash management is one of the most overlooked aspects of financial planning
You need to be earning a good yield on your cash
Otherwise you're losing to inflation
We help implement this for all our families:
→ Money market
→ CD ladder
→ T-bills

@olsonplanner Unfortunately the first exposure some/most physicians have are with reps like these in medical school or residency. When I was at NWM, there was a bunch of reps who had their universities steamed out every year.
Hurts to see
English
Sadly, I’ve seen a lot of this firsthand amongst physicians.

Please please stop believing insurance products are investments.
They are not.

We’ve always tried to take the hardest chapters of our life — infertility, loss, setbacks — and use them for good. Today is one of those moments. We are sounding the alarm on a hidden insurance scam involving policies being sold by Pacific Life and other insurance carriers. These are being pitched as “smart retirement planning” or a way to “set up your children’s future,” but too many families are being misled and left with devastating financial loss. And it’s not just public figures — it’s everyday hardworking Americans who trusted the system and are now left with little to no way to recover what was taken. We’re sharing our experience so others don’t have to go through this without warning. We were mislead. If you’ve been approached with a “no-risk” retirement plan tied to an index universal life product (IUL)…. RUN! Your future matters. Your family’s security matters. You deserve transparency.

@7Saturdaysaweek What’s worse… the company is virtue writing and the job is nothing like posting. That’s purgatory for sure 🙃
English
You ever read a job description and think..
"That was exhausting. I wonder how awful it is doing the actual job?"

@drgurner Slow consistent action will eventually get you to as close as perfect for you. This motivates me know I don’t have to get it right the first time

@Budgetdog_ Only takes a couple of months of discipline to adjust to your new normal. Unfortunately we have been raised to get instant feedback and if it doesn’t work, throw in the towel
English
Everyone can build wealth…
But most of you won’t.
Not because the system’s rigged but because your habits are.
You chase dopamine instead of discipline. You spend like you’re rich and invest like you’re broke. You talk about freedom but can’t delay gratification for 30 days.
Wealth isn’t complicated. It’s consistent. And that’s exactly why most people never have it.

@zachmelloh26 Found a whole bunch from a statement 2 years ago. Still have no idea how to get them even though I know they exist 😂

Anyone ever wonder how many of those childhood savings bonds our grandparents gave us are still out there… and how many ended up in the trash or a forgotten drawer?

@PeterMallouk Education isn’t just about what you learn, but how it changes the way you think. Some mindsets and thoughts only come after hours studying a topic
English
To my younger followers, please don’t listen to the idiots on X that say education doesn’t matter. It’s not the only path, but nothing helps your odds of success more.
English
@TKopelman What I love about this is that it forces you to live a healthy financial lifestyle based off saving. Doing this long enough will reinforce habits of living within your means. Once you reach retirement, there shouldn’t be such a big shift in your spending habits
English
If no matter what, you every year:
- max out you and your spouses backdoor ROTH IRA
- do up to the company match with your 401k (but go for the max)
- max out your HSA
- add some to your taxable account
Your future will be looking bright!
English
@Invested_In_You It’s interesting to see those who have the least in terms of financial wealth are often the happiest and live the fullest lives 🙌🏼
English
@TKopelman What are your typical ways of learning and getting better? It's hard to start some times
English
If you’re obsessed with always learning and getting better, there no better role in the world than being a financial advisor (perfect for athletes)
You will be incredibly successful and make stupid money
If you aren’t driven like that, you’ll be like the 80% of advisors who fail and are out of the industry within 5 years
