I have a very large collection, got into it a few years ago. The returns have been shockingly large. I will say I jumped in at scale, so that makes the returns more meaningful. We are at a bubble, though. I am more than 75% sure of it, so this is a terrible entry point. It's a good selling point.

I know I may have the wrong following for this but does anyone here buy Pokemon cards? People are always telling me I can make so much money buying on these drops and reselling. Or getting high value cards. I’m here to make money with the community. Am I sleeping on this?

@trq212 @AnthropicAI should just run the US Government, THIS is the type of winning we have all been looking for. As a user, we can't even catch our breath, and I LOVE IT.

We just released Claude Code channels, which allows you to control your Claude Code session through select MCPs, starting with Telegram and Discord. Use this to message Claude Code directly from your phone.

This is the best advice in construction that nobody wants to hear. The 68% complaint rate isn't a quality problem. It's a pricing problem. When you charge too little you attract the wrong clients, cut corners to stay profitable, and everyone ends up miserable. Raise your prices, deliver an amazing experience, and watch the complaints disappear.

Residential construction projects have a 68% complaint rate You should raise your prices

@trentjhughes The demand is even bigger than people realize. Most folks don't know where to start with AI and would happily pay someone to just show them. Whoever builds this first in their local market is going to print.

Local business idea nobody is doing yet: Teach AI courses to locals $100 per person 10 people per class 3 classes a week That's $3,000 a week $12,000 a month Demand is everywhere Nobody locally is teaching this yet...

@AlexForbesOps Laundromats are one of the most underrated businesses in real estate. Steady cash flow, recession resistant, and the barrier to entry keeps most people out. Store #5 already in the works says everything about the model. Keep building.

Laundry Spot 4.0 is wildly impressive. LS 5.0 going to knock some socks off. Pumped to share what we’re working on behind the scenes as store #5 is underway.

@CTourtellotte NIMBYs will fight 573 units tooth and nail then complain that rent is too high. The irony is never lost on me. Glad you pushed through it. That's what separates developers who actually build from the ones who just talk about it.

“Sign here to reduce traffic,” they said. NIMBY’s went door to door collecting signatures to overturn our 573 unit project. They got enough signatures. But… it was thrown out on a technicality (they didn’t attach entire DA). Today, hundreds of families have a place to live.

@SteveOnSpeed 100%. And here's the thing nobody talks about. The person working the $120K job they hate eventually burns out and ends up making nothing. The person who loves what they do keeps compounding.

This may not be popular, but I'm going to say it anyway: I'd much rather work a $120,000/year job I don't like than a $60,000/year job that I love.

@PlanetOfMemes My friends could not be trusted with this kind of power while we are drinking. Someone would end up on some sort of offender list by the end of the night.

I never knew this was even a thing.

I spoke to Anthropic’s AI agent Claude about AI collecting massive amounts of personal data and how that information is being used to violate our privacy rights. What an AI agent says about the dangers of AI is shocking and should wake us up.

@unusual_whales This is going to move markets. The post-2008 regs have been choking smaller banks and CRE lending for years. If they loosen reserve requirements even a little, expect a wave of capital flooding back into real estate.

BREAKING: The Trump administration is pushing to loosen the capital restrictions put in place after the 2008 financial crisis, per WSJ

@resetbasis @DealNav Love seeing tools built by people who actually do the work. Most CRMs are designed by people who have never sourced a deal in their life. The map pin feature showing nearby deals you've looked at is a killer add.

So, we use @DealNav as our CRM at the office. It’s legitimately awesome and built by real estate people. My team wanted a feature built (pins on a map that shows deals nearby that you’ve also looked at) and they built it custom for us. Pretty badass and helpful. Anyway, I said I’d show @acquisizioni some Twitter love as a thank you, and totally forgot. Because, ya know, I’m busy and shit. So he busted my chops and now I’m making an offer to all my followers that he has not approved at all. Try @DealNav and they’ll give you the first month free if you mention this tweet. Also, you should think of any insane feature you can possibly imagine and see if you can get them to build it for you. Honestly, see how far you can push the envelope. And because I don’t get paid for any of this and I love supporting entrepreneurs, please keep me posted on the insane features you request. If you end up with great software and @acquisizioni has a nervous breakdown in the process, that would warm my heart.

@ThinkAppraiser A partnership loan, let’s say 4 people, 100 million. In joint and several essentially all owe 100 each, because everyone is on the hook for full amount. Joint and Several.

@JasonLarsonHQ I don’t know all the details. I’m guessing most of it is full recourse. I don’t know what joint and several is

Just talked to a friend yesterday and he mentioned that he’s in about $70 million worth of debt The most debt I’ve ever been in my entire life, including everything is about $3 million How much real estate debt are you in? Would you be comfortable $70 million in debt?

@JulieChangRE 🔥

In the past people would be like whoo hoo no neighbors behind you What is the issue if you're buying today?

@BillKrackman @CircaSports I would buy this just for myself, man I am getting anti-social in my old age!

$12,000 seems expensive. However, the guy that bought it treats 25 of his friends. It comes with food and beverage up to the 12k. What a great venue and view for the games. ⁦@CircaSports⁩

@indexnforgetit No, sorry, should have clarified that.

@JasonLarsonHQ Public school?

It's offered at our local high school My kid is in it Know how many people signed up in a school of about 1200 kids? 22

I just said the same thing at my Tiger 21 meeting last week: give while it still can change the trajectory of their lives. This not only helps them on their journey but also removes the silent stress that comes with waiting for people to pass so you can finally get something. In a UHNW situation, the kids start to feel like employees who have to toe the line and be careful. I see it all day long. In general, I try to give at the point of need, and I am positive this is the best way.

Couple comes in for their annual review. $2.8 million. Well invested. Solid Pension. Completely on track. I ask the question I ask everyone. "How is your daughter doing?" Mom's face changed first. Their daughter is 39. Hasn't asked for anything. Never complained. But she's been in the same apartment for six years. Daycare alone is $1,800 a month. Down payment feels impossible. Dad said "we always figured she'd get it eventually." I pulled up a simple chart. Statistically they live to 88. She inherits at 56. Maybe 60. At 60 her own retirement is eight years away. The money that could change everything at 39 arrives when her finish line is already close. Neither of them had ever seen it framed that way. The annual gift exclusion is $19,000 per parent per child. They can move $38,000 a year to her. No gift tax. No estate implications. Over ten years that's $380,000 transferred while they're healthy enough to watch it matter. Dad looked at his wife. "Why are we waiting?" Most families leave everything at death because nobody showed them the math of giving it while they're alive.

@JTLOnTheMic In 105 degree weather.

The simple fact that Rolling Hills in Tempe thinks that their course is worth $135 for 18 holes at 2pm is insanity
