@SpaceCoastCRE Blue zones are BS, guantacaste people were literally lying about their age but it sure is an amazing place! Were you in papagayo or somewhere around there?

@mhp_guy 1 month out from my first 50k. Thankful it's not in Waco!
English
My 15 year old and I are on the way to Waco to run a 31 mile ultra we haven’t trained for.
My car is driving me so I can load up on carbs.
My son’s longest run is 8 miles and my last run was 4 miles, 7 months ago.
If it were a 31 mile hike with some running mixed in no one would look twice. That’s basically what this is tbh.
Ultras aren’t about running fast. They’re about running as slowly as you can bear for as long as you can.
It’s frog in boiling water pain. Very gradual.
What’s the bigger risk: an injury, or going 80 years without ever realizing your potential?
You can literally just do things.
(This is the best running song in the world btw. That + Coke will carry me).

I just signed up for an ultramarathon on January 3rd and I haven’t been in worse shape for 7 years. My last run was only 4 miles, back in June. I am completely out of shape any way you look at it. So why do it? My 15 year old runs cross country and I’m paying him $300 to do it with me. He didn’t want to at all, but now he’s excited. His longest run is 8 miles and he’s in great shape. The risk of him not discovering his true potential is both much greater and much more damaging than the risk of physical injury. Half the battle is managing your calories and electrolytes and being willing to walk if needs’ be. I’ll help him with those parts. I’ve run 14 ultras but my last was over 3 years ago. We’ll see if my body remembers! It may take me all day, but I’m not dropping out. I’ll follow up in a week with my results. Or come join me in Waco and you can watch the dumpster fire for yourself. 🤣

I just closed on my 100th commercial real estate development site right here from this app.
A broker saw a vacant kfc restaurant, thought who was the most deranged fast food fanatic she knew and DM’d me.
This app opens doors and makes connections for me weekly.

The value of an X account can be measured by what doors it opens for you in real life.

@Jb2Investments Let me know if you see one with an STR permit! 🤞

I have been poking at what is happening foreclosure-wise in Bend, and there are some good deals there.
English
@moseskagan But it would result in all your commercial leases being recorded, plus the leases would all have offset provisions in case you BK, sell, etc etc.
English
@ericatuw That's not an argument about the principle of the thing, but it's still a good point
English
Why do commercial brokers get paid their commission on the full lease at move-in, rather than getting paid over time, as the tenant actually pays rent?
Feels like it would be fairer for them to bear the risk of default alongside the landlord, no?
English
@moseskagan The way it is makes sense. A leasing broker is a contractor hired to do a transaction. If you want to make brokers equity or profit sharing partners, bring your leasing in house. There are so many issues with paying brokers over time I don't want to type out.
English
@moseskagan There's literally an agreement in place and that's not in it. Make that your arrangement and how the best leasing brokers respond in your market.
English
@ericatuw Not trying to be difficult, I promise
Just feels to me like the arrangement ought to be that the broker gets commissioned on bringing a tenant who honors the lease, to the extent the tenant honors the lease.
This would align everyone's interest.
English
@moseskagan Ooooohhhh, I get it... You want to shift the obligation off of your plate entirely... Maybe sleep on it another night because the answer has been given to you multiple times. Not sure how many different ways there are to explain the same thing.
English
@moseskagan I promise you don't want to pay agents monthly. Imagine the bookkeeping on both sides once you have dozens or hundreds of tenants.
English
@ericatuw Why does that follow?
You can have an employee who gets a share of revenue or profit, without owning equity in the business, right?
English
@moseskagan It's a transaction and as others pointed out, the job of the broker is to land a tenant and when it's done they get paid. Usually we get paid 50/50 execution/commencement and on really long leases might get paid partially after no default for awhile.
English
@Paulcalvaruso @adamcarolla You gotta figure out your loopholes. Cost segs, bonus depreciation, carried interest... I'm looking at about $200/day in tax, 10% of income
English
@adamcarolla Ace, I know you have it much worse, but after completing my 2025 1040, I paid >$600/day in federal taxes last year. Enough to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner at Michelin restaurants every day. I never eat at Michelin restaurants.
I about threw up all over the floor.

I’ve been to 50+ countries. No one hates Canadian, Mexican, Italian, Polish, Dutch, Scandinavian, Korean, Taiwanese or Japanese travelers.
Yet tourists from Israel, Russia and Mainland China are universally hated everywhere.
Why is that? Is it justified based upon their behavior?

🚨#BREAKING: United Airlines has announced that passengers can now be removed from flights if they refuse to use headphones while playing music, videos, or movies.
Under the new policy, travelers who continue playing audio out loud after being asked to stop could face removal from the aircraft and in some cases may also be banned from flying with the airline in the future.

My employees are naming their ChatGPT instances.
One has a "Greg" and another has an "Alexis."
You can't name your LLM account.
You can only name agents.

My favorite replies are "You must be a democrat."
Which is funny because the show is hosted by a bunch of ex democrats.

Removing All In from my podcast feed. It’s just unlistenable these days. Way too political. Way too much hosts talking over each other. Way too much parroting talking points.

Claude is awesome.
I was able to create a tool to scrape Zillow for rental listings that are sitting for certain amount of the days and then pull owner records with mailing addresses to auto populate a google sheet daily.
Which I then use to send targeted mailers to owners to try to win their property management business here in Bend because our average lease time is 6 days.
I trying figure many more tools to create to create a technologically advanced PM business.

Please reply with your current mortgage rate and when you got it, I’m trying to see something

A $400K mortgage is now $3,000/month. A $400K mortgage was $1,500/month in 2021. $1,500 more each month for the same home.
