What if you could access all your home equity without sacrificing future appreciation? Kyle Kamrooz, founder and CEO of Bonus Homes, joins us to reveal how his personal family story sparked a revolutionary approach to homeownership and wealth-building for middle-class Americans.Born to Iranian immigrants who fled pre-revolution Iran in 1976, Kyle's journey is quintessentially American yet uniquely shaped by watching his father's financial struggles. After building multiple successful mortgage technology companies (including CloudVirga, which processed over $300B in loans annually before its acquisition), Kyle identified a fundamental flaw in how Americans build wealth: the requirement to sell appreciating home assets whenever life demands mobility.The lightbulb moment came when Kyle's father sold his home in 2011 to access $100,000 in equity – a property that would be worth $1.2 million today. This experience revealed a stark inequality: affluent homeowners can maintain multiple properties when they relocate, while middle-class families must liquidate their most significant appreciating asset, forfeiting hundreds of thousands in future wealth.Enter Bonus Homes – an alternative allowing homeowners to "bonus" their property instead of selling it. By targeting properties valued between $300,000-$550,000 in growing markets like Phoenix, Charlotte, and Nashville, Kyle's platform enables homeowners with coveted sub-4% interest rates to access their equity while maintaining ownership and future appreciation potential.The implications are profound. Kyle envisions creating $5-10 billion in new wealth for 50,000 middle-class families – wealth that would otherwise be sacrificed through traditional home sales. At a time when America's middle class has been "pulverized" over the past two decades, this innovation offers a pathway to rebuilding generational wealth through smarter homeownership.Ready to learn how your home could become a lasting cornerstone of family wealth rather than a temporary stopping point? Listen now to discover why Kyle believes America's middle class deserves better tools for building lasting prosperity.Join the What if it Did Work movement on FacebookGet the Book!www.omarmedrano.comwww.calendly.com/omarmedrano/15min

OpenAI has successfully raised $40 billion in what is believed to be the largest private technology funding round ever, boosting its valuation to $300 billion. This funding round was predominantly led by the Japanese investment firm SoftBank, which has now surpassed Microsoft as OpenAI's largest investor. Despite the impressive growth in revenue and user base, OpenAI continues to face challenges in achieving profitability, as it invests heavily in infrastructure and user acquisition. The company has announced plans to release its first open-weight language model since 2019, marking a strategic shift to adapt to competitive pressures from open-source alternatives.The podcast also highlights significant advancements in AI applications across various sectors. Researchers are leveraging AI to accelerate drug repurposing, enabling faster exploration of treatment options for patients with limited choices. American Express has integrated AI into its internal IT support, achieving a remarkable reduction in IT escalations and enhancing travel assistance for its elite customers. These examples illustrate the potential of AI to deliver tangible business value and improve operational efficiency.However, the integration of AI is not without its challenges. Bloomberg News has faced difficulties in generating accurate AI summaries for articles, leading to corrections and concerns about the reliability of AI-generated content. This underscores the importance of maintaining quality control and human oversight in AI applications, particularly in fields like journalism where accuracy is paramount.The episode concludes with a discussion on trends towards simplifying complex processes in business. Innovations such as rapid business valuation tools, enhanced customer communication through Rich Communication Services, and streamlined cyber insurance solutions reflect a broader movement to improve efficiency and accessibility in various industries. These developments highlight the ongoing evolution of technology and its impact on business operations, emphasizing the need for strategic implementation of AI and other technological advancements.

I've applied that to the problems I see in the world that I feel need solving.Anxiety is one of the biggest mental health challenges of our time, affecting millions of people worldwide. Yet, despite the availability of treatments, many individuals hesitate to seek help due to stigma, cost, or lack of accessibility. Raj Amin, CEO and Co-Founder of Arcade Therapeutics, is tackling this problem by harnessing the power of gaming to provide evidence-based anxiety relief."One of the biggest challenges to engaging people is really the format of that engagement," Raj explained. "It's a big obstacle to get people into therapy. A lot of people haven't tried therapy. There's a lot of stigma associated with it. So we've got to figure out ways to give them an on-ramp to begin self-care. And that's really where gaming comes in."Arcade Therapeutics has developed a mobile game that integrates a psychological technique proven to reduce anxiety symptoms. Rather than requiring users to commit to therapy or medication right away, this game offers a more accessible and engaging way to start managing anxiety. "Two-thirds of Americans play games," Raj noted. "What if you could actually embed a psychological technique into the game that is proven to reduce anxiety symptoms? That's what we've done at Arcade."The company's business model relies on scientific validation, with research-backed methods that have undergone clinical trials funded in part by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). This has positioned Arcade Therapeutics to be recognized as a digital therapeutic—a form of software-as-medicine. As a result, its products can be prescribed by doctors and reimbursed by insurance providers. With the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) rolling out new billing codes for digital mental health treatments starting in 2025, the company is poised for rapid growth.Arcade Therapeutics is currently raising capital through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on WeFunder, allowing everyday investors to support this innovative approach to mental health care. "We need to democratize the way that early-stage companies get built," Raj said. "Crowdfunding allows us to set the stage for a future where companies can be supported by the people who believe in them, including therapists and doctors who see the value in what we're building."Investors and mental health advocates interested in learning more can visit s4g.biz/AT to support Arcade Therapeutics' mission. By blending science with gaming, Raj and his team are making mental health support more engaging, accessible, and effective.tl;dr:* Raj Amin, CEO of Arcade Therapeutics, explains how gaming can be leveraged to treat anxiety.* Arcade Therapeutics' mobile game integrates a psychological technique clinically proven to reduce anxiety.* The company's business model relies on digital therapeutics, enabling insurance reimbursement for mental health treatments.* Raj discusses his superpower, creative problem-solving, and how it has shaped his career.* He shares actionable tips on fostering creativity, including context-switching and learning from diverse fields.How to Develop Creative Problem Solving As a SuperpowerRaj Amin's superpower is creative problem-solving. Throughout his career, Raj has applied his ability to connect different ideas and industries to create impactful solutions. "I would say that I have a creative side in how I think about new businesses," he shared in today's episode. "And I think I've applied that to the problems that I see in the world that I feel need solving."An illustrative example of Raj's superpower is his work with Arcade Therapeutics. Recognizing the stigma and barriers to mental health treatment, he saw an opportunity to use gaming—something millions of people engage with daily—as a platform for delivering anxiety-reducing therapies. "Gaming is something that people are already doing and it's engaging, but we can now apply that in a way that helps bring down stigma and improve access to earlier treatments for mental health," he explained.To develop creative problem-solving as a personal strength, Raj suggests:* Engage in context switching – "I might grab a guitar, play a song for 10 minutes, and then shift to a business challenge. The intersections between different activities often lead to new ideas."* Expose yourself to diverse fields – "Dive into new subjects. For instance, I explored AI and then thought about how it could be applied to mental health."* Solve problems you personally experience – "I created a mini AI-driven coach for myself to see how technology could be leveraged for mental wellness."By following Raj Amin's example and advice, you can make creative problem-solving a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Trump Tariffs and how they will affect CPG Brands and consumers, Emerging Brands New Launches in Retail, and Expo West Gouging The controversial Trump Tariffs announced over the weekend will be going into effect on Tuesday, February 4th, placing up to a 25 % tariff on all goods with exception to energy which is at 10 %. Canada has since retaliated and is threatening to impose their own tariffs on up to $300B worth of US goods coming into Canada starting in February. According to Trump: He has said he plans to impose tariffs for three reasons. “Number one is the people that have poured into our country so horribly and so much,” he said on Thursday. “Number two are the drugs, fentanyl and everything else that have come into the country. Number three are the massive subsidies that we're giving to Canada and to Mexico in the form of deficits.” These tariffs are expected to affect thousands of CPG brands manufacturing and shipping from Canada and Mexico, resulting in higher prices in retail, and potentially affecting velocities and a reduction in sales for these brands looking to continuing to grow in retail According to Mike Fata, Founder of Manitoba Harvest, an entrepreneur who resides in Canada, his latest Linkedin Post says: "Remember, We can be pro-family, pro-team, and pro-country, without crapping on others" In retail expansion news: Glonuts has expanded to Texas and is rolling out to 153 HEB Stores. Also, it may be slightly old news, but WIld Wonder has also expanded nationally in Whole Foods New Hope's Expo West is catching some flack for their high prices for this year's Natural Products Expo West Show, with badge passes costs for manufacturers, suppliers, and other business service companies as high as $4,500 per person. This definitely locks out some emerging brands and service providers looking to grow their business and network
