Great pod with @jasonfried of @37signals and @FoundersPodcast! Loved the idea of making your business a forever game, and your only enemy / challenge being controlling spend. Play your own game and be great! Work with excellent people you’d hire again and again.

Solid hang for our @brokerbrews holiday party last night! Just under 30 of us. Thanks for being in the mix this year & the great Christmas card @WPhelps123! It was a solid freaking year. I’m excited to see where we go with the group. Thank you #twittercrew for the support too!

Solid Notth #SD @brokerbrews Holiday Party last week! We had a Toys For Tots toy drive for military families and will be again #OC this Wed too. We’ll be at the legendary Durty Nellys at 2915 Red Hill Ave, Costa Mesa this Wednesday 4-6pm. The little elf will be there to start.

Know the desired outcome. (Win. Goal / Circumstance.) Be flexible how you get there.

Finance lesson learned (finally): The bank doesn’t want your house. The bank doesn’t want your company. They want to live off of the difference of the cost of money to them and what they can lend it to you at. They’ll lend you the money if they think you can pay them back. If you can get an asset that can do X, you can pay back X over time, and maybe not make extra money in that period. But once paid back the cashflow is yours. If you can 2x + the sales of the company you’re paying back 1 X on, you’re doing doing awesome. You’re buying infrastructure then trying to level it up. Side note on my impression of Private Equity: Private Equity comes in with playbooks and technology to level-up mom and pop companies, but sometimes they get over their skies. PE raises capital, buys companies, borrows money through the companies they buy to ideally to build towards much bigger company (multiple) exit “platform” than the small companies can do on their own. Higher big company value. In summation: Not all debt is bad. If you’ve earned traditional business credit is means smart concervative people trust you. I am sure there are plenty of bad actors aggressive lenders too. Borrower beware. Next Phase: Understanding / Appreciating the Time Value of money! To be continued.

We’ve got a North #SD @brokerbrews this week and and #OC next week! As well as some holiday parties dialing in. I won’t keep saying it, I swear! But thank you again to all our partners and sponsors who made the golf tournament great. Cheers
