@mkobach Portland has an absurd number of craft pizza spots

What’s the most underrated pizza city in the US?

@bryanhasling Might be worth the ~10% of gross rent for a good property management company if the occasional headache is really stressing them out and they’re okay sacrificing some cash flow!

Me to my client: "how's it going?" Client: "ugh my A/C is out in 2 properties and my guy won't respond, leak from roof in another, maintenance maintenance, maintenance" Me: "I thought this was supposed to be passive." This person is wealthy and will likely never spend down their assets. No need to work another day in their life. What advice would you give?

@bavedikian *couldn't care less

I was introduced to one of the most prolific tenant rep brokers in Houston this week. I got straight to the point: “I am in the process of disrupting the commercial real estate industry. I would like you to join me, and I can offer you things nobody else can.” His response: “Excuse me, who are you?” I gave him the elevator pitch on the vision, why it is going to work, and why he should be a part of it. “I am listening. Keep going.” I went into more detail. He pushed back. Told me he doesn’t think it will work, but that he is intrigued. I said: “Look, if it was so easy that I could convince you this vision is going to work in 5 minutes, someone else would have already done it. The level of difficulty is an advantage. I can take my time and make sure I do this right.” I continued: “In 5 years from now, the idea that hiring a publicly traded brokerage is the safe play will be completely obsolete. Personal brands are the future. The structure of the legacy CRE brands will not allow them to adapt.” He works for one of said legacy brands. “I agree with you. My clients could care less about XYZ.” (XYZ = publicly traded firm he works for). “What you are saying about this social media strategy is interesting, but I am still not sure about it.” My response: Give me 12 months to show you. The path will be clear in 12 months. “Ok. I will be watching.” In conclusion: The amount of blood, sweat, and tears that will be required to convince this guy to join me 12 months from now is exhausting to even think about. Wouldn’t have it any other way. Here we go 🚀

@benfitterman What’s health insurance?

Everyone who is self-employed. What are you guys doing for health insurance? This is still my biggest concern for leaving a W2 role.

@HecklerAndKoch_ @ibuyrvparks @sweatystartup More likely that it actually comes from admin basically forcing allotted time slots on docs for ~20 min slot per patient. Nearly impossible to be thorough in that amount of time. Direct primary care (concierge) alleviates this for the patient but it’s pricey

@ibuyrvparks @sweatystartup I completely agree. I remember my physicals and check ups in the 90’s. Modern day check up’s are an absolute joke— I am often appalled when I visit doctors these days. Majority seem to be far less thorough & much less personable. Guaranteed you will see a hefty bill though.

I’m going on an executive medical retreat this week. Full body imaging, dementia testing, full blood work, biomarkers, cancer screening, stem cells, gut microbiome, allergy panels, genetic testing… Excited to get in front of all of this and monitor it. Any advice or questions? What should I make sure I monitor?

@HCareAdvisorGuy What would your top 10 be?

Nik is a great healthcare operator and while our top-10s are very different (I’m about to slide ketamine clinics into my top 5), the thoughtfulness here is worth a read.

@ChrisRamsey60 If work life balance is a priority, there are multiple physician specialities that can give a 9-5. And if he has no spare $ while on a physician income (even considering debt), chances are he’d be in the same financial position regardless what career he chose. There’s nuance

One of my good friends is a doctor. 35 years old. Student loans up to his eyeballs. Constantly working. Minimal time with family. Bought a home after his first years making money. No extra money to invest. Why do people strive for this life?

@theseoguy_ omnihealthchiro.com

@NiklausFuller find a co-working building (or any cheap business office building) that has private offices available for rent; Rent one of those offices for 1-3 months which will be long enough to go through the GMB verification process and then you're good to go

If you don't have a permanent office, how do you pick a business address? Don't want to list my house any more.

@sweatystartup *could not care less

When it comes to politics: I could totally care less about all of it. I know enough to know who I need to vote for locally and in my state / national elections. Other than that I devote zero brainpower thinking about it. And unless you’re wealthy, fit and living a completely happy life with all of your business cared for perfectly, neither should you.

@Saint_Dici People working 9-5 making 45k/year would like to have a word

@LeadingReport You can’t have “leading report” in your name and then casually forget to differentiate between total population and vaxxed population 😂

@netanyahu The proof: here’s a rendering my team put together

Hamas-ISIS is sick. They turn hospitals into headquarters for their terror. We just released intelligence proving it. Here it is:

@Brodiesmith21 a birdie

What do you call a birdie after a quadruple bogey?

@sweatystartup *could not care less

My wife isn’t wired to care as much about money (numbers on a screen in some invisible bank somewhere) as I am. She could care less when I talk about the size of deals, profit, loss, risk, potential, etc. She thinks and desires totally different things. She’s wired that way. It must be freeing to live life not totally fixated on something that only matters up to a certain point (which we crossed a while back). And here I am starting at a computer screen 30 hours a week working to grow those invisible numbers. For what? Ego? Status? Pride? In a way it’s a blessing because I’ve been lucky enough that my addiction has set our family up pretty well. But in other ways I see so many men totally ignore every other area of life in favor of growing those damn numbers. Health. Kids. Spouses. Friends. Hobbies. Balance. Maybe that’s why we’re such a good team. She balances me. Puts my in my place when it gets out of hand. Brings me out of the clouds when other things in life are more pressing than those dumb numbers. It’s something I really appreciate about my wife. Many of my friends aren’t so lucky. Either their addiction hasn’t yet paid (and might not) or their spouses are wired just like them. So there is no balance. And people miss out on so much. That feeling watching your little kid learn. And grow. And explore. Or that feeling of flushing a 6 iron to 3 feet from 175 with your three best friends watching. Or that feeling of fitness and euphoria after a 100 mile bike ride. Feeling accomplished and exhausted in a great way. Or a feeling of having a cup of coffee with absolutely nothing you must do that day. And nobody who can tell you what you have to do to get paid next Friday. No customers or clients bullying you into working harder or turning it around faster. You’re in control. And not of some numbers in an account somewhere. But of your physical world and body and mind. Too many folks who are addicted to the numbers are totally out of control in so many other aspects of life. And it’s sad. The big problem: Few people who are good at making money are good at other things. They are insanely one-dimensional. And guess what else? The goal posts keep moving. You make more money and get new friends. Move to a nicer neighborhood. Wind up in a group chat with better businessmen. And you feel the same making $2MM a year as you did making $200k a year. Going after that next milestone. That next rush. That next big ego stroke. Trying to keep up with the joneses. And chasing after that goal that keeps moving further and further away. I think I know why I keep at it. It is ego. Status. Pride. I can act like I don’t care what people think of me but it would be a lie. I think it’s a primal desire of mine. For people to think highly of me. It’s shameful when I think about it like this but it’s true. Another deep fear of mine is failure. Inadequacy. Worthlessness. And as an entrepreneur self-worth is often tied to those damn numbers. If I try something else, like being a damn good dad or being really physically fit, or having great relationships - maybe I’ll fail at it. But luckily for me I married someone who doesn’t give a shit about the money. And she makes me a better version of myself in every other area of life. The more important areas.

@Chadmoneymatter There is an epidemic of Kias and Hyundais being hotwired and stolen left and right. A group of guys put out tiktoks teaching people how easy it is to hotwire specifically those 2 brands and now it's a huge problem. Google kiaboyz if you're curious

Looking to purchase a car in the next 3 months. Wife wants a small SUV. Narrowed it down to these: Kia Sportage Hyundai Tucson Toyota Rav4 Mazda CX-5 Anyone have any good or bad opinions here?

“Most people don’t have an opinion until they’re asked for it, at which point they cobble together a viewpoint from whim & half-remembered hearsay, before deciding that this 2-minute-old makeshift opinion will be their new hill to die on.” — @G_S_Bhogal

Nah this is insane!

A far right conservative showing support for environment and a place with the word Palestine in its name in the same sentence. Mark that off your bingo cards!
