[01:47] Jimmy's insights on the Orlando event [02:42] Meeting Brian Adams  [04:35] Paul Moore's discussion [06:05] Investing is boring [07:56] What Jimmy learned [10:07] Matt's presentation on Tuesday [12:23] Taking what you learn and implementing it [13:18] Sharing what you do to inspire others to do the same [15:50] Creating impact on the community [16:45] Why business owners need to get involved more in the community [19:20] Wednesday with Frank Kern [21:14] Reminding people of what you do [23:28] Eli Fisher's presentation [25:58] Wrapping up the CG mastermind [27:19] Being competitive in life [28:23] The definition of success [30:15] The ceiling of complexity [33:00] Jimmy's notes from Larry's talk [34:41] What's the purpose of a business? [37:17] Final thoughts on the mastermind   Quotables   “I believe that through collaboration and partnerships, you can strengthen and gain more clarity not only in who you are and what your purpose is, but also gaining strategic insight on how to build your business and become more profitable and efficient in the way that you run your business.”   “If you do invest the time and the money to do masterminding, to travel, to do all that stuff, I think one of the biggest mistakes people make is that they don't set time aside to reflect.”   “It's easier to do than to think, and thinking time is extremely valuable.”   “Most people are doing somewhere between 75 and 400 deals a year, this guy does one deal a year! One deal, but it's normally around 1000-2000 units.”   “Sometimes, bigger isn't necessarily always better. Scaling to 20-30-40 employees obviously comes with many challenges.”   “I've been staying off the crypto bandwagon. I've always thought it is a reasonable hedge and now I'm definitely going to start tinkering - not to make any money, but as a hedge.”   “You can wake up everyday and complain about all the things you have to do, but a simple mindset switch of ‘I get to do this' - how empowering that can be.”    “His whole purpose for the business is not about getting wealthy or getting rich, but about having an impact on the community.”   “Matt's advice was just ‘start where you're at and go where you are'.”    “Just like anything else in business, you fumble along and you figure it out.”   “I think business owners need to start entering the narrative, because if you look around what's going on today, everybody's trying to be convinced that the world is falling apart, and it's just not.”   “If you think nonprofits alone or let alone the government is going to make that kind of impact, you're out of your mind. It's too inefficient for the government to take care of people that way. We have to step up as citizens and business owners.”   “Anytime that you need to drive content-based, or any kind of marketing, it's gotta be done on a consistent basis.”   “We're committed, that's one of our commitments for this quarter and a really big takeaway, is to really drive some content through our social media platforms just to let people know what we do.”   “You don't need to go out there and brag or boast about what you're doing. You simply need to remind people of who you are and what you're doing because you think that everyone is looking at you and you're doing the same post over and over, but they don't care.”   “They're scrolling from one thing to the next and the fact that you're putting more content out there, you're given the chance to kind of reach an audience.”   “The whole impact really was to tell your story or someone else will.”   “Should we leap for the next achievement in 2022 or is there something else out there?”   “There's something about being a competitive human being. I think the competitive spirit is great, but I don't know, to live a life like that - always hitting the gas as hard as you possibly can, I don't know if it's sustainable or if it's gonna get you what you actually want.”   “Most people see success as setting a goal and then achieving it, but the problem with that is, just feeling the exact same thing right after. You gotta set another goal and go crush it, and you're constantly setting yourself up for failure by setting a goal and then achieving it, and then pushing really really hard and when you get there, you realize that it wasn't as fulfilling as you thought it would be.”   “His definition of success is an optimized daily experience sustained over time.”   “The habits that got you to have the success and get you to where you are, are the same habits you need to break to enjoy the success that you have.”   “If you focus on achievement, there's a high probability that you're going to achieve it, but if you focus on achievement, there's very little chance that you will feel fulfilled.”   “Focus on the fulfillment and then the accomplishments, essentially will come.”   “What's the purpose of a business? It's to produce feelings of success and optimized daily experiences that are sustainable over time for clients, owners, teams, and family.”   “You've gotta have a scoreboard to give your employees a winnable game. Having that helps them know when they're winning so they can feel fulfillment.”   Links   Instagram: Marck De Lautour https://www.instagram.com/marckdelautour/?hl=en   Jimmy Vreeland https://www.instagram.com/jimmyvreeland   Podcast: Rise up.

    Self-directed IRAs are not a new concept but people are still unaware of the benefits it can bring. In today's episode, we have Juan Deshon from Quest Trust Company to uncover what self-directed IRAs are and how you can take advantage of them!    Juan Deshon has been working for Quest Trust Company for 5 years now and he is my personal self-directed IRA representative. I've had great success through him and his company and I want you to learn how to do it too.    Listen to this episode so you can have a better understanding of what makes a self-directed IRA different from other IRAs and what the benefits are for you!    Key Talking Points of the Episode   [00:00] Introduction [00:56] Who is Juan Deshon? [01:38] What is a self-directed IRA? [02:31] Quest and their self-directed IRAs [03:30] What does Quest do? [04:25] Who is ideal for a self-directed IRA?

[19:31] Quest Trust Company   Quotables   “The self-directed IRA is still an IRA. It's actually just a marketing term.”   “A self-directed one means that you can invest into non-traditional assets. If the term ‘self-directed' is not there, it will most likely mean you cannot invest in non-traditional assets, or mostly in the stock market in general.”   “You have to use an intermediary - you have to use us to do the same thing, except the asset class is changing.”   “By keeping it in the IRA, keeping it under the hands of a custodian like us, you're not being taxed until you decide ‘I wanna retire and do something with that personally'.”   “Everyone can take advantage of a self-directed IRA, but someone that really should be able to jump into this right now, today is gonna be someone that has an entrepreneur mindset that wants to get out of the stock market.”   “The whole point of it is you have an end goal and we're gonna help you get to it.”   “A rollover is a fancy word for the movement between an employer plan to an IRA.”   “Now we've moved funds over from the 401K plan in this situation, now you have to find your opportunity and this is where self-direction comes into play. Quest won't give you a list of opportunities.” “My returns go into my retirement account. It's not my money until I distribute it.”   “Most Americans coming from 401K plans, they're probably gonna be taxed by the end of the retirement stage.”   “If they can't value it correctly, the IRS can't tax you properly.”   “I think IRAs are designed to be fairly passive.”   “A savvy investor has to really up their knowledge when it comes to IRAs and really plan far ahead.”   “Depreciation is completely taken out of your hands. Leverage isn't completely taken out of your hands, but you have to get what's called a ‘non-recourse loan'.”   “Just a little bit of education can get you a long way.”

    One common mistake that we see many real estate investors make is not knowing the financial side of their business. They're so focused on getting as many deals as they can and they either avoid or abdicate their financials, so it gives them a lot of problems in the long run. In today's episode, we have David Richter to help us learn what we need to do to stop living from deal to deal and actually create a business that's profitable. David Richter is a published author and a Profit First expert. He wrote the book Profit First for Real Estate Investing and he's telling us why this system is something we all need.

[25:26] Profit First for Real Estate Investing   Quotables   “95% of the time, I would say it's like that, where the number one mistake we see is just avoiding the financial side or just abdicating the responsibility of the financial side to someone else.”   “As an entrepreneur or business owner, you at least have to have that control over your cash, and know where your cash is flowing, where your cash is going.”   “As the business owner, you have to be savvy but you don't have to be an accountant or a bookkeeper, and all that.”   “No one's really taught you this side. I get it, you're not the CPA, bookkeeper, or accountant. You haven't been taught just basic money management at a high level at all.”   “With this “pay cash, close quickly” mentality, there's a tendency to use all their cash in the next deal and as you scale and grow, inventory expands, you pour more money into the assets so your balance sheet is heavy, but you can absolutely be very very cash grabbed.”   “You might be doing 100 deals a month, but you still gotta be able to live and eat and pay your people the next week.” “It's income minus profit equals expenses, so it's just switching the profit and expenses. So you make a sale, you collect income, then you take your profit first and what you left over is expenses in the business.”   “We've heard that over and over and over again, but I feel like it hasn't hit home until you see money in accounts and you're making profit a habit in your business.”   “I love the formula, I love that shift in mentality, but I love that it has teeth behind it too in the practical side.”   “Making money is a skillset, but retaining money is a discipline.”   “I teach about reserves and how it's peace of mind for you. You don't have to live from deal to deal.”   “Lenders love reserves. They love to be able to see those reserves in your account.”   “The whole point of this system is making profit a habit inside your business, not just this one time event at the end of the year, hopefully, that you have money leftover to take at the end of the year.”   “You gotta get into some kind of rhythm for you that you know you can do for your business.”   “There is this stigma that I hear the words CPA, bookkeeper, accountant, and I automatically shut down.”   “You have to have the right people and trust them to get the bookkeeping in place and to do the taxes right.”   Links   Website: Simple CFO Solutions https://simplecfosolutions.com/   Book: Profit First for Real Estate Investing https://www.amazon.com/Profit-First-Real-Estate-Investing-ebook/dp/B098865Y5B
