@sodacitysimpson Congrats man! That’s awesome, keep it up!

One of my YouTube shorts just decided to go crazy Thanks for coming to my ted talk

Yeah… recently my paid off my 3.375% loan from 2012. Hit a big goal of mine to pay off my home in under 15 years. Did it in 13. Majority would call it stupid. But… It’s no longer a bill I have to pay every month. I don’t have to think about it. That’s worth the difference in my book.

I used to think like this And then you have a kid and something changes Debts awesome, until it isn’t I’ve never met anyone with a paid off house who regrets it 🤷‍♂️

@ami_ads Blueprint

I’ve spent over $100k/day on affiliate traffic this year. Here’s what actually works (and what nobody teaching “Meta hacks” will tell you). I’ve been in affiliate for years now — sweeps, leadgen, casino, ecom funnels — and our campaigns consistently push 7–8 figures a month across multiple verticals. And I’m tired of watching new affiliates get wrecked by outdated strategies from 2019. So here’s what’s actually printing right now in 2025: Cost caps are undefeated. If you’re still raising budgets manually like it’s the golden era of ABO, you’re fighting the machine. At scale, cost caps handle volatility better than any human. My days of staring at dashboards ended the moment I realized Meta respects consistency more than “clever” optimizations. I used to stress when spending $500/day. Now I’ll push $100k+ and barely check the account some days. Why? Cost caps + clean signals = the algorithm does the heavy lifting. Stop testing with separate campaigns. This is where every beginner nukes their accounts. They build giant “testing structures” with 12–20 adsets and wonder why nothing spends. The truth? Meta knows if an ad will win within 100 impressions. Add new creatives directly into your proven adsets. If Meta doesn’t give them budget, it already decided they won’t beat your currents. Trust the machine. Creative volume is the entire game now. We push 80–150 new creatives per week across verticals. Not because we’re hunting unicorns — but because Andromeda literally rewards pattern diversity. New hooks. New scroll-stops. New angles. New funnels. The affiliates stuck at $3–10k/day are usually running the same 4–5 ads from last month. AI is a cheat code for speed. I’ve launched full affiliate funnels (prelanders, advertorials, hero images, UGC-style videos) for under $300 total. No studio shoots. No “creators.” No $2k UGC packages. Just AI. I’ve validated entire offers in 48 hours with nothing but AI creatives + agency accounts. Is it perfect? No. But it gets you to the truth faster. Here’s the part nobody wants to admit: You don’t need $20–50k to scale. You need: • a god-tier offer • relentless creative volume • a funnel that sends clean signals • and a setup that works with Andromeda, not against it If you’re stuck right now, your bottleneck is almost always one of three things: 1. your offer isn’t strong enough 2. your creative volume is way too low 3. your signals are confusing Meta instead of guiding it The game didn’t get harder. It got more predictable. And the affiliates who adapt fastest are eating right now. If you want the exact systems we use to scale $100k/day campaigns — including our creative volume engine, cost-cap structure, signal setup, and AI workflow — comment BLUEPRINT and I’ll send you the full affiliate scaling manual.

@Judyjoh1122 @washghost1 @Judyjoh1122 Who is it? Does he stream his sermons?

@washghost1 Omg!! This is my pastor!! Loooooove Pastor Jobi!!!

Now that’s my kind of church

@Juicewag Made me lol. But sorry he was such a dick.

Last night I was at a bar and there was a very drunk old guy who passed me, tapped my shoulder, and said, “you’re ugly.” He came back a few minutes later and said, “sorry I did that man, you’re just really ugly and I had to say something.”

@IMJustinBrooke Read the sales page last night. Reads like your style too! Congrats!

Blown away this morning guys… Woke up to over $23k in less than 12hrs of our Black Friday launch. Sales letter fully written by AI Website fully built by AI Product is AI agents Let the naysayers nay all they want. This IS the future! 💪🤖 Thanks to everyone who bought!

@TheJoeySwoll @Taste_FlavorCo Picked up a 6 pack. Glad it happened because I didn’t know about your sauce company until it did! Congrats!

Not trying to brag or be arrogant, but I want to share something truly incredible with all of you. As most of you know last week (and continuing into this one), many people attacked my company @Taste_FlavorCo bullying and harassing our customers, flooding us with fake negative reviews, and calling our sauces “transphobic trash” simply because I believe women deserve to feel safe in their own private spaces. Well, I just got the numbers in. Last week alone, we did more in sales than in ALL of 2024 when we launched. Why? Because the overwhelming majority of you still believe in biology and agree that standing up for women to have the right to feel safe in their own spaces is the right thing to do. Men do NOT belong in women’s locker rooms. Period. To every single one of you who stood with us, bought a bottle, left a real review, shared our story, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. You turned their trying to “cancel me” and Taste into our biggest week ever. And to those that tried to tear us down well, the proof is in the pudding… or in this case, in the sauce. And we’re just getting started. ❤️

@ThinkAppraiser Lost about $9k with Yotta. Sucks… but at one point I had $90k in there. Glad I derisked a few months prior.

They use the exact same banking methods called “sweep accounts” that Yotta Bank used right before Yotta Bank shut down and disappeared over $109 million of customer funds FDIC doesn’t cover Fintechs like you expect them to

Imagine when there’s a huge market correction and they just lock out everybody from their accounts and file bankruptcy That’s gonna be exciting

@7figtradesman @boringlocalseo Yes

@boringlocalseo Isn’t it prohibited or auto deleted if you post website or phone number in GMB updates or offers?

Google's local algorithm shifted 2 weeks ago Nobody's talking about it But I've tested it across 47 client GBPs and the results are wild: Businesses posting OFFERS are crushing businesses posting "tips" Not close. Like 3x the visibility. Here's what changed: Google now prioritizes GBP posts with: • Specific pricing • Time-limited offers • Clear CTAs • Actual phone numbers in the post "5 tips for choosing a roofer" → 12 views "$500 off roof repairs this week - call now" → 340 views Same business. Same day. Different format. We ran this test 47 times. The pattern held every single time. Your GBP isn't a blog. It's a billboard on the busiest highway in your city. Stop "educating." Start selling. The HVAC guy who posted "10% off furnace tune-ups - ends Friday" got 19 calls in 3 days. The one who posted "Why regular HVAC maintenance matters" got 2. Google wants posts that make phones ring. Not posts that make you look smart. If your last 5 GBP posts don't have an offer, a number, and urgency, you're leaving money on the table. By they way, we created a battle-tested vault of objection-crushing replies used by top closers to turn hesitation into commitment. We are giving this away for FREE in 24 hours. Comment “LOCALRANK” and I’ll DM you the swipe file (must be following).

@JasonKutasi And congrats on the little one!

@citizen_554 💯

Just got some side-eye from the nurse... I'm sitting in a hospital room right now, waiting for our son to be born. My wife asks me, nurse next to her... Do you feel excited? No. Do you feel happy? No. Do you feel nervous? No. Do you feel anything? No. Basically, I told right now I'm in the typical headspace of "Lets get this done..." or "Lets solve this problem..." In moments of high stress, I am typically calm and focused to push through any challenges ahead. Not sure if that's what I should be feeling, but kind of believe the daily war of entrepreneurship has conditioned me to be this way. "But once the baby is here, how will you be feeling?" Well, once the baby is here, I will be excited and happy for sure... Thankfully, my wife knows who she married, so she only laughed when I said "No" to all those emotions : )

@IMJustinBrooke GCP

The VSL has been DETHRONED! Like you, I've used long form sales letters, VSLs, and webinars in my sales funnels for years. But just like one day the VSL beat the written sales letter, something has FINALLY curb-stomped the VSL. They're called GCPs. Which stands for "gradual commitment pages." Maybe the name sucks, but their results don't! The reason they convert higher is because of a psychological trick that hijacks the brain and inserts a marketing argument like a trojan horse. Like an advertorial the reader thinks they're reading just another article on the web. Their defenses are down. And then oops, too late. I've used these GCPs quietly for well over a decade, but I have a different business model now so I'm fine with sharing it. The first time I shared these at a millionaires mastermind in Las Vegas, the room fell silent when I shared the conversion numbers. They had LOTS of questions. If you want, I've got a Google Doc that explains the whole thing with examples. Shows you step-by-step how to design and write your first GCP (without the years of trial & error I had). Just comment "GCP" below and I'll DM you the document. ✌️❤️

@hxxntrr DELETE

"pay a credit repair company $2,000 to fix your score" no mf i deleted $30k in collections for $0 in 90 days while you're paying scammers to mail the same 3 letters debt collectors bought your $10k balance for $300 and are betting you don't know fdcpa laws same system 1,400+ people used to flip collections into fdcpa violations and force deletions one guy had $70k in medical debt - all removed without paying a single collector credit repair companies designed their scam for scared people - they just didn't expect us to reverse-engineer debt validation better than their paralegals follow, like & comment "DELETE" and i'll send the legal playbook that makes collectors delete YOUR debt or you sue THEM

@ewastematt What do margins look like in the industry? Genuinely curious. Thanks!

If you’re not in the ewaste business in the 2020s, you’re leaving free money on the curb. We’re standing in a once-in-a-generation wave of opportunity, and most people are blind to it. Everyone wants to talk about recycling’s doom and gloom… toxins, landfills, overseas dumping. And sure, that matters. But the bigger story? The opportunity that’s sitting right in front of us. Every day, perfectly good tech gets tossed. Phones swapped like socks. TVs banished to spare bedrooms. Tablets ditched because they’re half a millimeter thicker than the new model. And all of it flows into a waste stream that looks more like a gold mine to people who know what they’re looking at. Ewaste isn’t random luck; it’s a repeatable system. You source the goods, sort the value, and sell to markets that are hungry for it. You’re not just cleaning up people’s waste. You’re building a business that scales. The more you process, the better your buyer relationships, and the higher your margins climb. Most industries shrink under growth. This one fattens your wallet the bigger you go. That’s not “doom and gloom.” That’s the golden age of ewaste.

Bombshell vax vs. unvax study finally sees the light of day — and the results are staggering. Dr. Marcus Zervos led the study, but he decided not to publish it because “publishing something like that, I might as well retire. I’d be finished.” Here’s what the study revealed: • Vaccinated children were 4.29 times more likely to have asthma. • Three times higher risk for atopic diseases (like eczema). • Nearly six times higher risk for autoimmune disorders — a category that includes over 80 different diseases. • 5.5 times higher risk for neurodevelopmental disorders. • 2.9 times more motor disabilities. • 4.5 times more speech disorders. • Three times more developmental delays. • Six times more acute and chronic ear infections. • In nearly 2,000 unvaccinated children, there were ZERO cases of ADHD, diabetes, behavioral problems, learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities, tics, or other psychological disorders. • The study’s conclusion is devastating. It states: “[I]n contrast to our expectations, we found that exposure to vaccination was independently associated with an overall 2.5-fold INCREASE in the likelihood of developing a chronic health condition when compared to children unexposed to vaccination.”

@FitDadRx Just got tested the other day. 488 and 9 free. On the fence. Doc seems open to it. Any opinion?

The best $50 I’ll spend all month guaranteed. Coming up on a year on TRT. Can’t imagine going back and should have started sooner.

I do something similar. Reached out and told them I was in the same biz and I often have jobs I can’t do and was wondering if they were fine with me referring them. Sent a few leads - now we’re buddies and exchange leads or give a tip for a good job. Works out well. Plenty of work, no need to be stingy.

This last week, I called my main competitor to introduce myself and ask if he's interested in selling his business. He's not interested in selling right now, but we talked for about 15 minutes, and he seemed like a really nice guy. He's going to start sending me travel jobs he doesn't want, which is cool! Just because we're competitors doesn't mean we have to be enemies.
