She sold for $88M, almost bought a lake house she didn't want, and spent $340K on Knicks playoff tickets — then gave two away because it felt better.We're still surprised people did this but... 50+ founders worth $10M to $4B reveal their personal finances. Here it is: https://joinhampton.com/mw-wrWhy do we do this? Because if you're an aspirational person or someone who runs a business and is making money, it's incredibly challenging to figure out what to do. Information is impossible to find — and that's what we put together: the net worth reveal and why we do this podcast, Moneywise.Also, this podcast is made by Hampton, which is a community for founders doing on average $20 million a year in revenue. We saw a lot of these money conversations happening privately behind closed doors and we thought, "Why not, let's make it public." If you are a founder, apply here: https://joinhampton.com/mwAnne Mahlum built Solid Core from $175,000 of her own savings into an $88M exit. Two years later, her net worth is $115–120M, with $65M in public equities and $15M in a single stock alone. But the numbers are the least interesting thing that's happened since.After the sale, she secretly launched a second fitness company, had panic attacks she's never talked publicly about, shut the whole thing down, and spent two years in legal fallout. Then she had a baby, pulled an accepted lake house offer the morning after making it, and started forcing herself to spend $200K a month just to stop the money from piling up.This episode covers the full portfolio breakdown two years post-exit, why she's done with private investments, the Ambition story she's never told, what a baby did to how she thinks about money and time, and what she actually wants to be remembered for — which has nothing to do with net worth.Sponsors: Daily Body Coach - achieve your dream body with https://moneywise.dailybodycoach.com

La imputación de Zapatero&cía —o cómo se llame ahora— representa: 1 ) la posibilidad de que el PSOE sea una estructura profundamente corrupta, o lo que es lo mismo, un partido as usual de la partitocracia canónica; hasta el punto de que —en una suerte de ingreso traumático de lo real en el que el carácter ficcional del modo en el que nos relacionamos operativamente en el mundo se desvela como tal, una mentirijilla que nos facilita la vida— ya no podemos relacionarnos con el PSOE fingiendo que es una cosa diferente a lo que el PSOE realmente es. 2) La constatación definitiva, por si era necesaria alguna prueba más, de que el PSOE —uno de sus aparatos fundadores— ha sido expulsado del R78 y hay una operación puesta en marcha para desalojar al Gobierno vía judicial, mediática, política y diplomática mediante. Es decir, por todas las vías. Esto ha llegado a suceder como si, en una fase terminal de la respuesta autoinmune del R78 a los desafíos del ciclo político 2011-2022, las defensas atacaran finalmente al propio cuerpo. Una dinámica en la que es posible que el PSOE tenga una responsabilidad no pequeña. Para afrontar y superar los desafíos y la impugnación del ciclo 2011-2022, el R78 segregó una serie de anticuerpos en esta forma que Pablo Elorduy ha llamado el Estado feroz. Aquí segregar significa, en una gramática variable, que autorizó, legitimó, confraternizó, toleró o dejó hacer según el caso y la conveniencia a determinados aparatos de estado (incluidos los aparatos de información ) a actuar para expulsar, debilitar o aniquilar esos cuerpos extraños (15M, Municipalismos, Podemos, etc.) o que se han vuelto extraños (Junts, Esquerra) que desafían la estabilidad y legitimidad del régimen. Hasta este punto el PSOE es plenamente responsable de ello. Autorizó, legitimó, dejó hacer y sobre todo, se benefició de ello. ¿Qué sucedió para que haya terminado devorado por esta dinámica, canibalizado por unas dinámicas que él mismo contribuyó a generar y activar? 1) Activada esta dinámica, legitimada en su proceder, a las fuerzas conservadoras y reaccionarias no les ha sido difícil impusarla a una nueva fase, ordenarla e instrumentalizarla. Pero si 1) ha sido tan fácil es porque 2) a estos núcleos movilizados y activistas del Estado feroz nos les ha faltado ímpetu ni iniciativa. Quizás nunca ha sido más importante en nuestra historia reciente (donde importante significa disfuncional) la composición material y humana de los aparatos de estado. La expulsión del PSOE supone una reestructuración fuerte del campo político y uno de los vectores estratégicos más importante del ciclo que se nos está viniendo encima Drama sobre drama, aquí lo importante es que parece dominar en los núcleos de los aparatos duros del Estado a) una concepción patrimonialista del Estado y b) estrecha y preconstitucional de la nación y la patria. Una noción en la que España se identifica con ellos mismos y sus homólogos de clase, anterior y superior a la democracia, con la que tiene una relación accidentalista. De esta manera, en nombre de España (en esta concepción patrimonialista y estrecha) se está en cierto modo habilitado para bordear, extrañar o desreconocer la democracia y sus derechos. En resumen, un esprit de corps reaccionario que activado y tolerado en una primera fase, y movilizado y legitimado en una segunda, ha terminado por comprender al PSOE (una de sus partes componentes y fundadoras) como también él un cuerpo extraño. Con el que se está habilitado a hacer lo que se estaba legitimado a hacer con los cuerpos extraños: al que se esta autorizado y legitimado a expulsar, aniquilar, castigar, destruir y un largo y triste etc. Si esto resuena a lawfare es porque cuando funciona, así funciona el lawfare. Si nos estremece un cierto latigazo de pánico, es porque el cuerpo es sabio e intuye la que se nos viene. Conclusiones. La expulsión del PSOE supone una reestructuración fuerte del campo político y uno de los vectores estratégicos más importante del ciclo que se nos está viniendo encima. El PSOE navega en esto incómodamente, entre la estupefacción y la aceptación estratégica. La extraordinaria resistencia que está mostrando el Gobierno, al menos hasta el momento presente, habla de que hay un área que ya está en lo segundo, pero es lógico intuir que el impulso apparatchik, especialmente conforme público y crítica vaya soltando la mano, a negociar la rendición, entregar los aparatos de estado, pasar la penitencia y pedir el reingreso en el club, es ya también un proyecto en marcha. De momento, por el presente, si el lawfare hace del PSOE uno como nosotros/as, la otras cositas no lo hace, justamente, uno de nosotros/as. Esta distinción, que no ha estado clara precisamente estas semanas, pero distinguir y trabajar ambas cosas —una pulsión que acerca y otra que nos aleja— va ser uno de las elementos claves para sobrevivir y crecer en el ciclo político que se abre. Ciclo político que se anticipa necesariamente feroz.

Thinking about gifting money or assets to your kids or other family members? Before you write that check or transfer that stock, there are some important tax rules and planning pitfalls you need to understand.In this episode of Gimme Some Truth, Nate, Evan, and Polly break down everything you need to know about lifetime gifting — from the 2026 annual gift tax exclusion ($19,000 per recipient) to the lifetime gift tax exemption ($15 million individual / $30 million for married couples). They explain when you need to file Form 709, what types of assets you can gift, and why gifting appreciated stock can actually backfire thanks to the step-up in basis trap.The conversation goes beyond tax rules into the real-world side of gifting that most people overlook. How do you talk to your kids about receiving a large gift? What happens to your child's college financial aid if you gift them money at the wrong time? And why does relinquishing control over the gift matter more than most people realize?They also cover custodial accounts vs. 529 plans, the tax implications of gifting real estate, and the most common pitfalls advisors see when clients try to gift without a plan. Whether you're thinking about helping your kids with a down payment, funding a grandchild's education, or simply passing along wealth while you're alive to see it enjoyed, this episode gives you the framework to do it the right way.Topics covered:- What assets you can gift (cash, stock, real estate, and more)- 2026 annual gift tax exclusion ($19,000) and when to file Form 709- Lifetime gift tax exemption ($15M individual / $30M married)- The step-up in basis trap when gifting appreciated stock- Real estate gifting considerations- Why communication with gift recipients matters- How gifting affects college financial aid and FAFSA- Custodial accounts vs. 529 plans- Why relinquishing control is essential- Where to start before you gift- Common gifting pitfalls to avoidCheck out the related blog post for additional information - https://walknercondon.com/blog/gifting-to-family-members-what-to-know-before-you-give/ Chapters:0:00 – Introduction & Evan's CFP Journey1:49 – Polly's Milestone: First Tooth & the Tooth Fairy Economy3:03 – What Assets Can You Gift?4:50 – 2026 Annual Gift Tax Exclusion ($19,000) & Form 7096:13 – Lifetime Gift Tax Exemption ($15M Individual / $30M Married)6:50 – Gifting Stock: The Step-Up in Basis Trap9:04 – Real Estate & Other Asset Gifting Considerations9:57 – Why Communication with Recipients Matters11:37 – Impact on College Aid & FAFSA12:41 – Custodial Accounts & 529 Plans14:52 – The Importance of Relinquishing Control15:47 – Where to Start Before You Gift18:13 – Common Gifting Pitfalls to Avoid21:16 – Best Gifts We Ever Received21:56 – Closing Thoughts & Contact InformationSubscribe @walknercondon Visit our website for more financial planning resources and educational information: https://www.walknercondon.com ————————————————ADD US ON:LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/walkner-condon-financial-advisors-llc Facebook: https://facebook.com/walknercondon

The AI boom is making founders feel like the market is wide open, but the data tells a sharper story: valuations are up, round sizes are bigger, and the bar to “count” in a top-tier fund's Monday meeting keeps rising. We sit down with Peter to translate Q1 2026 venture capital trends into founder reality, from seed-stage pricing distortions driven by AI infrastructure to the quieter pressure building across the rest of the startup market.We get specific on early-stage fundraising benchmarks and why Series A now looks riskier than many people assume. Median Series A valuations have climbed close to 2x in a few years, while typical raises jumped from roughly $8M to $10M to $13M to $15M. That changes everything: ownership targets, follow-on costs, and the outcome math that pushes investors (and founders) toward “decacorn-plus” expectations. If you are pitching $100M ARR as the endgame, you may already be behind.Then we zoom out to the forces shaping who wins: Bay Area gravity, a real valuation gap versus other hubs, and practical tactics like visiting the Bay to capture network effects without uprooting your life. We also dig into defensibility in AI application startups, where building is faster but competition is fiercer, plus the rise of smaller teams and solo founders, and what that means for hiring, equity, and motivation on early teams.Chapters00:00:00 LLM Hype And Bubble Warning00:02:13 Five Stars Then We Begin00:03:02 Seed Prices Spike In AI Infra00:07:10 2026 Benchmarks For Pre-Seed To A00:09:36 Series A Doubles And Exit Math00:12:54 Bay Area Gravity And Valuation Gap00:18:22 Defensibility Gets Harder In AI Apps00:23:22 Smaller Teams Solo Founders Talent Shifts00:35:20 VC Fund Shakeout And Final Share AskSend me a message to let me know what you think!

Most dental practices lose new patients the moment a call goes unanswered - and most don't know it's happening. In this episode of The Thriving Dentist Show, Gary Takacs and Naren Arulrajah break down the after-hours and missed-call response system every dental practice needs in 2026. Inside: why 95% of new patients won't leave a voicemail, the 60-second response standard, when Book Now buttons help (and when they kill new patient numbers), and the simple audit every practice should run on its own phone system. Plus the wake-up call: a $15M multi-location practice that was missing 1,400 calls a month with no idea it was happening. Bonus guest segment from Dr. Jeff Buske on the work-to-home transition no one in dentistry talks about. Want to find out how many calls YOUR practice is missing?

El programa aborda las elecciones andaluzas, cruciales para la política nacional, donde se prevé una posible mayoría absoluta de Juanma Moreno, un "batacazo" del PSOE y el estancamiento de VOX. Se analiza el decimoquinto aniversario del 15M, criticando su instrumentalización por la extrema izquierda y el empeoramiento de problemas como la vivienda. También se informa sobre la reunión entre Trump y Xi Jinping en Pekín, destacando la influencia china y la "línea roja" de Taiwán, aludiendo a la "trampa de Tucídides". Otro tema es la falta de medios contra el narcotráfico tras la muerte de dos guardias civiles en Huelva, y la polémica por las declaraciones de María Jesús Montero. Finalmente, se discute la persistente inflación, el aumento de precios y las advertencias de la AIReF sobre la economía española, que rebaja las previsiones de crecimiento y alerta sobre el uso de fondos europeos para pensiones.

El programa analiza las elecciones andaluzas, destacando la campaña de Juanma Moreno y la incertidumbre sobre su mayoría absoluta, que podría forzarle a pactar con VOX. Se subraya la difícil situación de María Jesús Montero, cuya candidatura es un desastre para el PSOE andaluz, anticipando el peor resultado de su historia y arrastrando a Pedro Sánchez. Se debate si el batacazo electoral forzará a Sánchez a adelantar las elecciones generales; la opinión general es que no lo hará, buscando la continuidad del sanchismo. Se conmemoran los quince años del 15M, movimiento que, aunque transformó la política española con Podemos y Ciudadanos, se critica por sus "efectos tóxicos" y el "deterioro institucional". En el ámbito internacional, se aborda la visita de Trump a Pekín, interpretada como un "reparto del mundo" entre Estados Unidos y China, con Europa ausente en negociaciones clave sobre tecnología y recursos. Finalmente, se mencionan los desafíos judiciales del PSOE, con juicios ...

El programa analiza las próximas elecciones andaluzas, donde se prevé la victoria de Juanma Moreno, aunque la mayoría absoluta es incierta y el PSOE afronta una debacle histórica que podría afectar a Pedro Sánchez. Se destaca la transformación de Andalucía en una región dinámica y emprendedora. También se conmemoran los quince años del 15M, un movimiento que, según el análisis, no mejoró la política, sino que propició el populismo, desestabilizó las instituciones y fragmentó el panorama político, dejando una "regeneración" que ha llevado al enriquecimiento personal de algunos de sus protagonistas. En el ámbito internacional, la cumbre entre Xi Jinping y Trump revela la firmeza china sobre Taiwán, considerado un objetivo irrenunciable, mientras se espera una posible reapertura del estrecho de Ormuz. La situación económica española preocupa, con la AIReF advirtiendo sobre la necesidad de recortes o subidas de impuestos y una previsión de menor crecimiento. Además, el IVA del gas y la ...

Hoy se cumplen 15 años de aquel 11 de mayo de 2011 en el que una manifestación, que a priori comenzaba como tantas otras, terminó en un asentamiento en la Puerta del Sol de Madrid que cambió para siempre la historia política de España. Ha pasado el tiempo y este capítulo parte de una pregunta que Juanlu Sánchez lanza a varias personas que estuvieron allí: “¿A quién le importa hoy el 15M?” Esas personas, que estuvieron implicadas activamente en aquel movimiento, y que nos han enviado sus notas de voz son Fabio Gándara, Guillermo Zapata, Clara Nieto, Stephane Grueso, Sofía Coca y Patricia Martín.

Quince años después del 15M, el balance es melancólico ante el incumplimiento de sus promesas, la persistencia del bipartidismo y la falta de regeneración democrática. La nueva política no resolvió los viejos males, limitando los cambios a la subida de alquileres y la pérdida de la ilusión por protestar.

El programa conmemora el 15 aniversario del 15M, recordando las protestas contra los recortes de José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, que incluyen la reducción de retribuciones públicas y la congelación de pensiones. Se centra en las inminentes elecciones andaluzas, donde Juanma Moreno busca revalidar la mayoría absoluta y el PSOE se enfrenta a un posible resultado históricamente bajo, con importantes implicaciones para el gobierno de Pedro Sánchez. También informa sobre el creciente problema del narcotráfico en Andalucía, tras el incidente de una narco-lancha en Almería, y la pérdida de control de las aguas territoriales. Aborda el preocupante aumento del absentismo laboral en España, vinculado a problemas de salud mental post-COVID, y su elevado coste para el país. Finalmente, cubre las fiestas de San Isidro en Madrid, destacando la celebración tradicional, la entrega de medallas y cómo los jóvenes adoptan con entusiasmo las costumbres castizas.

My guest today is Chaitra Partha Rao, Vice President at Daimler Truck Innovation Center India – Manufacturing , Sales & Aftersales.Chaitra shares how her childhood aspirations to become a neurosurgeon shifted to commerce due to cost constraints, eventually leading her into IT through an internship at a medical diagnostics firm automating stores processes. She describes observing early requirement-gathering and MVP-style delivery, learning the importance of user empathy, and contrasts it with a later failure where a $15M trading interface was rejected because designers didn't listen to analysts. Her career spans core banking, Fidelity-style investing, equity trading transformation (including crypto/digital assets focus in 2015–2017), and automotive/trucking, emphasizing designing for human touchpoints even amid AI trends. She discusses patience versus outcome-chasing, staying focused via “recalculating” and timeboxing, scaling systems using “day in the life” simulations, cross-cultural user commonalities, cautious optimism about synthetic data, guidance for women returning from career breaks, and grounding routines like yoga, reflection, cooking, and music. The timestamps are approximate and do not include the time for the intro.

A big single-stock win can feel like freedom one day and a tightrope the next. This plan walks through how a family holding ~$15M in NVIDIA shares can turn concentrated success into stable, low-stress wealth—without torching liquidity on taxes.Start with the only question that matters: How much diversified capital is needed to fund a confident lifestyle?Reverse-engineer that number, then use precise tools to reach it, keeping meaningful upside while lowering single-stock risk.What's inside this episode: - Decide your lifestyle floor first: Define the minimum diversified capital required to fund spending needs with confidence.- Complement, don't duplicate: Use separately managed accounts (SMAs) to add what's missing so exposure isn't stacked on top of NVDA, Apple, and Amazon.- Create tax “ammo”: Systematic tax-loss harvesting and long/short SMAs to build a reservoir of losses that can offset gains when trimming the position.- Account coordination, not silos: Asset location that overweights missing exposures—international, small caps, real assets—inside 401(k)/403(b) to hit global targets while cutting tax drag.- Optimize NVIDIA employee benefits: Mega backdoor Roth contributions paired with a generous 401(k) match for higher tax-advantaged compounding.- Thoughtful de-risking: Selective pruning vs. selling everything—manage taxes, sequence risk, and liquidity step by step.- Advanced tools, clear trade-offs: Exchange funds, covered-call overlays for selective income, and charitable gifting of appreciated shares via donor-advised funds.- Portfolio-level management: Make decisions across all accounts, not account-by-account.- Graduate from accumulation to optimization: Shift the focus to risk control, tax efficiency, and reliable cash-flow.Who this helps- NVIDIA employees with RSUs/ESPP and sizable NVDA exposure- Founders and tech execs holding concentrated single-stock positions- Anyone looking to diversify without a massive tax bill and buy long-term peace of mindThe bottom line— fund the lifestyle floor with diversified assets so one ticker never dictates your future, or your mood.--Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

John Stossel. The Complete Guide to Socialism vs Capitalism (Myths Explained) People find fault with capitalism. Many think they'd prefer socialism. Why? Because they believe absurd myths about it For example: When socialist countries fail, defenders say: “That wasn't real socialism.” Some say that about the Soviet Union (which made private business illegal). “That's about as close as the world ever saw to the purest socialist end of the spectrum,” explains economist Ben Powell. Meanwhile, capitalism gets trashed. We are told billionaires get rich by making others poor. But that's another myth. In the video above, we debunk 5 myths about socialism, and capitalism.

After the recent developments with the Steelers and Aaron Rodgers, a few insiders are claiming that nothing has changed and it's still ‘status quo' for the front office's dealings with the QB. Mark Kaboly thinks the Steelers will hear ‘definitively' in the next few weeks about Aaron's intentions. The Steelers reportedly told Rodgers they were going to lay down the UFA tender. A new wrinkle is that they can rip up the $15M price tag, a small raise from last season, and give him more money once he signs. Again, the guys ask, if they were so sure this was happening, why did they do this?

Again, the guys ask, if they were so sure this was happening, why did they do this? NFL Draft analyst Ryan Wilson from CBS Sports joined the show. Ryan loves the Germie Bernard pick for the Steelers and believes he can become a favorite weapon to whomever is QB in Pittsburgh. Ryan doesn't want to throw Drew Allar under the bus again, but thought the 3rd round was a little rich for him. Ryan actually ‘loves' a lot of the Steelers draft. Ryan raved about Eli Heidenreich in the 7th round and isn't totally against the Kaden Wetjen pick in the 4th. Ryan said Riley Nowakowski can easily replace Connor Heyward, and even give you better football. Can the Steelers successfully turn Gennings Dunker into a guard after playing mostly tackle at Iowa? Right now, Ryan thinks 4-5 QBs go in the 1st round in the 2027 NFL Draft. He added that the Steelers may finally have a top 10 pick. Donny Football Debrief – Russell Wilson may be staying in New York after all. The Jets brought him in for a visit today.

In Episode 312 of The Block Runner Podcast, hosts William, I-man, and TJ unpack a wild week for $NAT: overnight listings on three centralized exchanges with zero fees paid, a god-candle to a $150M market cap, and a deeper, more rigorous walk-through of the Bitcoin security-budget math than the show has ever done on-air. They run the numbers through Michael Saylor's $441 trillion scenario, show why fees can't close the gap, and lay out the case for NAT as a supplementary second subsidy capable of delivering $2.1B/day to miners. The episode closes with a commitment: the next video from The Block Runner is NAT.fun going live. Disclosure: William and I-man are founders of NAT.fun and hold NAT tokens. All analysis in this episode reflects their perspective as participants in the ecosystem. Key topics: NAT token listed on MEXC, LBank, and CoinEx overnight — a fourth exchange followed the next day — with no listing fees paid, consistent with Constantinople-era organic exchange adoption The god-candle: NAT market cap to ~$150M in an instant, flipping ORDI; hosts normalize expectations to a new ~$40–$60M floor with extreme volatility still ahead Bankless on the Bitcoin security budget: Justin Drake's ultrasound-money framing, why "add tail issuance or move to proof-of-stake" is not a viable answer for Bitcoin The full math walkthrough: at $100T market cap in 30 years, Bitcoin delivers only $116K per block — roughly half of today's $243K — a ~0.00006% security-to-value ratio Running it through Michael Saylor's $441T scenario: five halvings out, Bitcoin still delivers only $2M/block and spends 0.0002% of its market cap on security — 100x below the U.S. 3.4% GDP-to-security benchmark Why "fees will cover it" doesn't math out: $10,781 per transaction, every block, every day, forever, to approximate a U.S.-equivalent security ratio on a $100T BTC NAT as a second subsidy: decoupled from Bitcoin's exponential decay, earned by miners alongside BTC, and still delivering in 2140 when subsidy hits zero The efficiency comparison: at a $15T NAT market cap paired with Saylor's $441T BTC, NAT delivers ~$285M/block — 100x more than BTC at the same point in time The on-air correction and the natgmi.com slider: at $1T NAT, miners receive $15M/block — 7x Bitcoin's current efficiency — or $2.1B/day Why the hosts can't be the messengers: the token-founder conflict and the need for a neutral Andreas-style explainer to carry the math to Bitcoin's mainstream NAT.fun preview and network-effect thesis: why the launch platform's success underwrites NAT's long-run demand, and why the hosts are going silent until it ships — the next video IS the launch Do the math yourself.

Mike Ames built and sold two IT recruitment businesses, one for £24M, one for £15M. In this episode, Terry sits down with Mike to find out what serious buyers actually look for, what kills value before a deal even starts, and what most recruitment business owners are getting wrong right now.They get into the 360-degree model, yo-yo revenue, client estate management, strategic BD, delivery obsession, and the mindset shift that separates recruiters who own a desk from those who own a real business. Mike also shares how he went from £5M to £40M in five years, and what specifically changed to make that happen.Whether you ever plan to sell or not, this episode is about building something that doesn't depend entirely on you.

"There is no funding gap in Africa." That is the provocation from Burak Buyuksaraç, CEO of Afri Capital and a 16-year business veteran in Tanzania. He arrived in Dar es Salaam in 2010 as a mining executive, stayed to build a diversified portfolio across tourism, security, insurance, consultancy and trading, and now runs one of East Africa's newer investment firms. In this episode we unpack why the real bottleneck in African SME finance is not capital but pipeline. Why smaller tickets are harder to raise than larger ones. Why Tanzanian banks demand 125% collateral for a loan. And why Burak sees Africa and Latin America as the only two regions left on the planet with genuine room to grow. Burak shares two recent Afri Capital deals: a $15M refinancing for an Arusha agro-processor and a $3.5M facility for a Tanzanian bank servicing the education ecosystem. Essential listening for founders, impact investors, DFI teams and anyone working on SME finance in emerging markets.

Why a Dexter Lawrence Trade Is Unlikely + Vikings Pick 18 TE Option and 7-Round Mock Draft — Tyler Forness and producer Dave discuss Dexter Lawrence's trade request from the Giants, driven by his desire for a raise in the $27M/year range, and why a Vikings trade is highly unlikely despite his elite pass-rushing nose tackle impact. They explain the steep acquisition cost (likely a first-plus) and major cap hurdles, noting Minnesota would need to clear over $15M to absorb his ~$20M cap hit before an extension, requiring big moves like a Jonathan Greenard trade and a Brian O'Neill extension. They also highlight Oregon TE Kenyon Sadiq as an intriguing 18th-overall option, citing his athletic testing and value in heavy personnel, plus future succession planning with T.J. Hockenson. The show ends with a seven-round mock draft featuring a trade down from 18 and selections including KC Concepcion, Christen Miller, AJ Haulcy, Jadarian Price, Ahmari Harvey, Deontae Lawson, John Michael Gyllenborg, Matt Gulbin, Eric Gentry, and Jalen Catalon. 00:00 Dexter Lawrence Trade Buzz 02:20 Contract Cost Breakdown 03:55 Vikings Fit and Impact 05:59 Cap Space Roadblocks 08:00 Draft Capital Opportunity Cost 10:27 Dave Weighs In 14:48 Why It's Unrealistic Now 18:14 Trade Value and Future Picks 21:48 Asset Management Explained 27:30 Show Updates and Draft Prep 28:43 Kenyon Sadiq TE Prospect 30:16 Kyler Murray Personnel Stats 31:49 Sadiq Role Vision 33:37 Draft Value Debate 34:42 Dave Weighs In 36:26 Vikings Tight End History 38:36 Mock Draft Kickoff 39:35 Round One Strategy 41:12 Caleb Downs Slide Talk 43:31 Trade Down And Pick 44:52 Round Two Defensive Tackle 47:04 Round Three Secondary Loadup 48:25 Running Back Surprise 51:26 Day Three Development Picks 52:07 Seventh Round Fliers 54:44 Simulator Grades Wrap 55:43 Show Closing Notes _____________________________________________________________ ⭐️ Subscribe to us here! - https://www.youtube.com/@vikings1stskol92 ⭐️ Our Twitter can be found at @Vikings1stSKOL ⭐️ Our Discord at https://discord.com/invite/493z6mQXcN ⭐️ Tyler Forness can be read at A to Z Sports - https://atozsports.com/nfl/minnesota-vikings-news/ ⭐️ Submit questions: forms.gle/7LJkCAern9kdUkuD8 ⭐️ On Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/vikings1standskol ⭐️ Watch the live show here: https://youtu.be/fPoRsY-QBUY Fan With Us!!!

The 2026 MLB season is off to a wild start, and we're breaking down the biggest contract news plus early-season takeaways! The Chicago Cubs locked up two key pieces long-term: Pete Crow-Armstrong (PCA) on a 6-year/$115M extension (no options, buys out two free-agent years — he can hit free agency at age 31, includes assignment bonus if traded, and escalators that can push the total to $133M). They also extended Nico Hoerner on a 6-year/$141M straight deal (no options, $5M signing bonus, $10M deferred — present-day value ~$137.5M) with a full no-trade clause. The Baltimore Orioles secured young starter Shane Baz with a 5-year/$68M straight extension (no options or escalators, no deferred money, buys out two free-agent years, ~$13.6M luxury tax hit with lower salaries early on). Meanwhile, the Milwaukee Brewers inked top shortstop prospect Cooper Pratt to an 8-year/$50M deal (includes two club option years worth ~$15M each). Pratt just debuted at AAA — no MLB timetable yet. Plus, Opening Weekend reactions: Rookies are stealing the show with massive performances from Chase DeLauter, Munetaka Murakami, Owen Caissie, Sal Stewart, JJ Wetherholt, and Kevin McGonigle.

Nolan Smith Jr.'s 5th year option is a no-brainer at $15M — but can he deliver? McMullen says Jalyx Hunt's upside has surpassed Nolan as a pass rusher. The Eagles need a #1 edge (Jonathan Greenard?) or everything falls apart. Plus: Cooper DeJean extension prediction ($27M), Quinyon Mitchell ($33-34M), Jalen Carter getting paid, and the Hurts contract deep dive — dropped to 10th in QB pay at $51M with $139M dead money.

Most people spend decades building wealth — Jason Wong turned $500 into a $15 million company at age 23. In this episode of The Root of All Success, Jason Duncan sits down with Jason Wong — serial entrepreneur, founder and CEO of Packing Duck, and one of the most resourceful young builders in e-commerce. After immigrating from Hong Kong at age 8, Jason started hustling in the backs of restaurants, launched his first business at 14, built a 30-million-follower meme empire on Tumblr as a teenager, and eventually turned problems he encountered into multimillion-dollar opportunities. Jason shares how he made $250,000 in 7 days selling a coloring book that didn't exist yet, why he targeted TikTok influencers with 500 followers instead of 50,000, and how frustration with slow, overpriced packaging led him to build an 8-figure manufacturing company without venture capital. This conversation dives into: •Selling candy in school at 14 and realizing the internet was his way out •Building a 30M-follower Tumblr network and turning memes into $190k profit in 9 days •The Holy Meme Bible: pre-selling $250k of a product that didn't exist yet •Launching Doe Lashes with $500 and reaching a $15M valuation in year one •Why nano-influencers with 500 followers beat large influencer campaigns •A Christian conversation card game doing $10M in year one from a single SKU •How each new business solved a problem from the previous one •Why the packaging industry became an 8-figure opportunity •Tripling a factory's revenue in 6 months and earning equity in the company •Turning a 12-year Alibaba sales rep into his COO •Why he's bootstrapped everything and never raised venture capital •Using AI tools to turn factories into an “Ironman suit” for manufacturing •His vision to build a global platform connecting 100+ certified factories If you're an immigrant entrepreneur, building with limited resources, or turning problems into businesses — this episode shows what's possible when hustle meets opportunity.
