Trump's Mystery Announcement: Gaza Takeover or Drug Price War? – Trump hints at an “earth-shattering” reveal, with two possible bombshells emerging: a U.S.-led interim government in Gaza after Israel's offensive, or a sweeping executive order to slash prescription drug prices by tying them to international rates. Biden's Gaza Pier Scandal Much Worse Than Reported – A Pentagon IG report reveals 62 U.S. troops were injured and one killed in Biden's failed Gaza pier mission, far more than the three injuries publicly disclosed. The $230M humanitarian project was poorly planned and politically motivated, according to insiders.

What if your biggest business breakthrough came from a completely different industry? In this episode, Dr. Hesham Baky shares how he transitioned from scaling a multi-location dental empire to building a $230M real estate portfolio focused on high-growth medical retail spaces what he calls "Medtail." Discover the game-changing strategy he used to identify prime locations before they boom, leverage real estate for massive returns, and create a fund that attracts both medical professionals and high-net-worth investors. 5 Key Takeaways from the Episode with Dr. Hesham BakyThe Power of Owning the Real Estate Behind Your Business Dr. Baky learned from a mentor that owning the real estate where your business operates provides long-term financial stability. This insight led him to acquire properties alongside his dental practices, ultimately fueling his expansion into commercial real estate.Medtail: The Future of Medical Real Estate Investment The shift of medical services into retail spaces—dubbed "Medtail"—is a high-growth trend. By placing medical offices in high-traffic retail locations, Dr. Baky has been able to create more patient-friendly experiences while capitalizing on the value of mixed-use developments.Using Heat Mapping to Predict Real Estate Growth Instead of relying solely on census data, Dr. Baky and his team developed a proprietary heat-mapping system based on future housing permits. This allowed them to identify high-growth areas before they developed, securing prime real estate at a fraction of its future value.The Benefits of a Fund Structure for Scaling Investments While initially focused on personal real estate investments, Dr. Baky realized the power of pooling investor capital. His Blue Ridge Capital Fund allows doctors and high-net-worth individuals to participate in lucrative real estate opportunities while benefiting from his expertise.Trend-Based Investing vs. Asset-Based Investing Dr. Baky's success stems from spotting emerging trends rather than being tied to a single asset class. From identifying Medtail as a rising investment opportunity to capitalizing on distressed retail centers during COVID, his ability to recognize market shifts has led to significant wealth creation.About Tim MaiTim Mai is a real estate investor, fund manager, mentor, and founder of HERO Mastermind for REI coaches.He has helped many real estate investors and coaches become millionaires.

The Acolyte was a disappointment for Disney. It cost too much and didn't recoup its expenses, which is the confirmed reason it was canceled so quickly. Disney counts negative reviews and hate-watching as viewership, potentially leading to renewal of poorly-received shows. "The Acolyte" was canceled due to high production costs of $188-230M and low viewership, not toxic fandom as claimed by media. Disney is willing to make a film based on "The Mandalorian" but has put Ray films on hold, signaling uncertainty in the franchise's future. Disney prioritizes entertainment industry standards and numbers over social justice activism in decision-making. "The Acolyte" performed well in its first week with strong reviews but was ultimately deemed not worth a second season due to high cost and low returns. Disney will cancel shows that don't justify their high costs, even with strong reviews and initial success, focusing on projects with clear audience and financial potential. Disney canceled "The Acolyte" due to high production costs and low viewer engagement, despite initial positive reviews, highlighting concerns about the future of the Star Wars franchise. 00:00 Disney canceled "The Acolyte" due to high costs and low viewership. 01:48 Disney misattributes the failure of "The Acolyte" to toxic fandom instead of acknowledging its low viewership and engagement. 03:40 Disney acknowledges that "The Acolyte" failed due to poor quality and viewer burnout from the Star Wars franchise. 04:48 Disney confirmed "The Acolyte" was not renewed due to high production costs and low viewer interest despite good reviews. 06:23 Disney acknowledges that "The Acolyte" failed to attract viewers, leading to no plans for a second season despite some engagement from critics. 07:17 Disney admits The Acolyte failed due to low episode count and poor performance. 08:54 Disney acknowledges that "The Acolyte" failed to maintain viewership despite initial strong reviews, leading to doubts about its future. 10:00 Disney admits "The Acolyte" failed to attract viewers, deeming its production costs unjustified and raising concerns about the future of the Star Wars franchise.

Shiyan Koh, Managing Partner of Hustle Fund, and Jeremy Au discussed: 1. 6 Million Population: Singapore's population reached 6 million in 2023, up from 5 million in 2010. Shiyan noted the population was 2.7 million when she left two decades ago in 1990, highlighting rapid growth. Increased density has boosted economic diversity, comparable to New York City's business environment. Unlike USA or the EU, Singapore's population growth is driven by legal immigration due to strong border enforcement. International events like the F1 Grand Prix and Token 2049 contribute to an influx of expatriates, reinforcing Singapore's role as a global business hub. 2. Anti-Immigration vs. Education Assimilation: With Singapore's GDP per capita at USD 88,000, which six times higher than neighboring Malaysia, Shiyan highlighted that Singapore naturally attracts workers from ASEAN countries. She emphasized that immigration often fills jobs that the local population does not. Jeremy noted that immigration, while necessary for economic growth, is controversial globally, especially when people feel its benefits aren't equally shared. They both suggested that schools should serve as platforms for integrating immigrant children, given Singapore's declining birth rate. They also discussed how international schools, equal government funding across local schools, socio-economic factors, tuition, and parent self selection drives competition across families for local school slots. 3. US$230M Bitcoin Theft Lessons: 20-year-old Singaporean Malone Lam was arrested in Los Angeles for stealing 4,100 Bitcoin, worth USD 230 million. He partied hard with the proceeds, gave away Birkin bags at nightclubs, and bought luxury cars. Prioritizing long-term thinking and value creation leads to sustainable success, rather than chasing short-term career gains that sacrifice integrity. Jeremy and Shiyan also touched on fostering "kampung community spirit”, the impact of alumni networks and socioeconomic background on local school performance, and the role of expatriates in Singapore's business ecosystem. === Shiyan Koh is the Managing Partner at Hustle Fund, a venture capital fund that invests in pre-seed software startups in the U.S., Canada and Southeast Asia. Prior to that she was VP Business Operations and Corporate Development at NerdWallet, a Fintech Startup that helps users with a range of financial decisions through content, community and tools. Over the course of six years at NerdWallet, she led product teams, ran business operations and corporate development, and helped grow the company from US$1M to US$150M in revenue. === Watch, listen or read the full insight at https://www.bravesea.com/blog/singapore-population-growth Nonton, dengar atau baca wawasan lengkapnya di https://www.bravesea.com/blog/singapore-population-growth 观看、收听或阅读全文,请访问 https://www.bravesea.com/blog/singapore-population-growth Xem, nghe hoặc đọc toàn bộ thông tin chi tiết tại https://www.bravesea.com/blog/singapore-population-growth Get transcripts, startup resources & community discussions at www.bravesea.com WhatsApp: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VakR55X6BIElUEvkN02e TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jeremyau Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeremyauz Twitter: https://twitter.com/jeremyau LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/bravesea Spotify English: https://open.spotify.com/show/4TnqkaWpTT181lMA8xNu0T Bahasa Indonesia: https://open.spotify.com/show/2Vs8t6qPo0eFb4o6zOmiVZ Chinese: https://open.spotify.com/show/20AGbzHhzFDWyRTbHTVDJR Vietnamese: https://open.spotify.com/show/0yqd3Jj0I19NhN0h8lWrK1 YouTube English: https://www.youtube.com/@JeremyAu?sub_confirmation=1 Apple Podcast English: https://podcasts.apple.com/sg/podcast/brave-southeast-asia-tech-singapore-indonesia-vietnam/id1506890464

Budgets have been a HUGE topic. Not only on this show but people are starting to notice the overspending and waste on a lot of movies. We just got a report that the Aco;yte actually cost 230M instead of the 180 that was initially reported. Now The Marvels which was rumored at 280M is not actually reported at 378M? What is happening with the decision making with these films? How is this allowed? Speaking of big budgets, The Joker 2 had a MUCH bigger budget than the first and now the second one although first predicted to have a massive opening is now dwindling because of poor reviews. Can it be saved?

Hoy, sin salir de Barcelona, nos ponemos en modo viajero porque charlamos con Luis Osorio, Co Fundador de Stayforlong, el sitio web de reservas de hotel especializado en las reservas de larga estancia. Stayforlong basa su modelo de negocio en la intermediación entre hoteles y huéspedes, consiguiendo mejores precios y condiciones para los viajeros de larga estancia.

Todo iba bien hasta la llegada de la COVID-19 , cuando, al igual que otras grandes plataformas de viajes, cayó en picado, reduciendo su facturación a 15.000€ al día. Luis en este episodio nos explica cómo él y su equipo, con buenas estrategias, lograron sobrevivir y actualmente Stayforlong opera en 25 países y cuenta con una cartera de más de 720.000 establecimientos hoteleros y una facturación en 2023 que supera los 230 MILLONES de euros.

Shannon Sharpe and Chad Johnson dive into the hottest topics from the NFL this week. They discuss the unfortunate injury to Nick Chubb, drawing parallels to Napoleon McCallum's injury and Chubb's last knee injury which also happened when the Cleveland Browns played the Pittsburgh Steelers. Unc and Ocho emphasize the importance of running backs seeking better compensation and long-term security. Also, they scrutinize the Cleveland Browns' decision to give Deshaun Watson a fully-guaranteed $230 million contract which has only produced an underwhelming performance from Watson. Is Deshaun living up to the franchise QB status? Shannon and Chad bring up another struggling quarterback, rookie Bryce Young of the Carolina Panthers. While they acknowledge his rough start, they also express optimism about his potential once he gains more experience and better weapons. Lastly, they touch on Kansas City Chiefs Patrick Mahomes' historic payday with a massive restructuring deal, making him the highest-paid player over a four-year period in NFL history, giving him $210.6 million between 2023 and 2026. #Volume #ClubSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What are 1-2 of his biggest lessons from Redpoint that he has taken with him to his building of Theory? What does Tom know now that he wishes he had known when he started investing? 2. From 150 LP Meetings to Closing $230M: Raising a Fund I How would Tom describe the fundraising process? How many meetings with LPs did he have? How many did he know previously? What documents did he share with LPs? Did he have a dataroom? How did he use it? How did Tom create a sense of urgency to compel LPs to come into the fund? How does Tom feel about the debate between one close and multiple closes? What was the #1 reason LPs said no to investing? What worked and Tom would do again for the next raise?
