In this episode of The Situation, John and Davin dive into two real-world housing challenges that many listeners might recognize. First, Maya writes in with a creative idea to tackle affordability and support family: she and her brother are considering buying a three-unit home together so they can each have their own space while bringing their mom closer as she looks to downsize from a large suburban house. It sounds practical — but what are the financial, legal, and personal considerations families should think through before taking on co-ownership? Then, Steve from Kitchener shares a puzzling trend: while most 600 sq ft condos in his market are selling for $350K to $400K, four units in a brand-new building suddenly sold for between $575K and $650K — all significantly above the going rate. What could possibly explain such a dramatic jump in price? And what might it signal for buyers and investors watching this market?

Seattle just elected a socialist mayor with zero leadership experience, and the progressive voters are about to get a masterclass in why socialism always fails. Katie Wilson - former boatyard worker turned mayor - promises to solve the housing crisis by... wait for it... taxing everyone into oblivion! Because nothing says "affordable housing" quite like raising property taxes on that teacher who bought in 2009 for $350K and now sits on a $1.2 million paper fortune she can't spend. Wilson's brilliant plan? Tax big businesses until they flee, then tax homeowners to make up the difference. We've seen this movie before in every socialist experiment - Cuba, Venezuela, you name it. Yet Seattle voters think this time will be different because... reasons? As businesses pack up and rents skyrocket even higher, these same voters will be scratching their heads wondering why their socialist savior made everything MORE expensive. What's your prediction - how long before Seattle residents realize they've been played? Will Wilson's tenure make Bruce Harrell look like a fiscal conservative? Drop your thoughts below, smash that like button if you're ready to watch this trainwreck unfold, and subscribe for front-row seats to Seattle's socialist experiment!

Funding is being sought by any means necessary to order to combat a "treacherous walk to school" in Ennis. It follows concerns raised by the Principal of Holy Family National School for children walking from the Ballaghboy Halting Site on the Quin Road. There's no cycle lane, hard shoulder or footpath for a 550m stretch between the halting site and Johnno's Bar, and the cost of installing the latter is estimated to be €350,000 , but Clare County Council says funding isn't currently available. Ennis Fianna Fáil Councillor Clare Colleran-Molloy says a solution is needed before there's a fatality.

This episode was sponsored by Nation One Mortgage LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ "Most people want to avoid the fire.. I walk straight into it." Dropping Bombs welcomes Phil Crescenzo, the mortgage guy builders and realtors call when deals are on life support. With 25+ years of experience, Phil is renowned as the expert who saves deals others abandon, helping builders meet quotas and families secure their dream homes. He exposes broken industry "norms," showing how a small raise or credit tweak can turn a $350K denial into a $600K approval. You'll hear how he turned ditch-digging into discipline, survived the housing crashes, and built a team that trains underdogs into six-figure killers. If you're a buyer, builder, or agent sick of excuses, this conversation proves why Phil's phone rings when nobody else can close. Tap in to rethink everything you thought you knew about lending—and take action before your deal dies.

Federal prosecutors revealed that Jeffrey Epstein wired $350,000 to two women described as alleged co-conspirators shortly after renewed media coverage reignited interest in his criminal conduct. The transfers, made in late 2018, included one payment of $100,000 and another of $250,000 — both sent within days of The Miami Herald's exposé on Epstein's 2008 plea deal. Investigators alleged the money was meant to keep potential witnesses silent or loyal as scrutiny mounted around his non-prosecution agreement. Prosecutors described the payments as “potential witness tampering,” noting that they were consistent with Epstein's long history of using financial leverage to control those around him.Court filings later confirmed that the recipients of the payments were women previously accused of helping Epstein arrange or manage young victims, but their names remain sealed by judicial order due to safety and privacy concerns. Federal prosecutors insisted that releasing their identities could compromise ongoing investigations and expose individuals who may themselves have been exploited. The revelation of the $350,000 transfers became a central element in arguments that Epstein's wealth and influence made him a flight and obstruction risk, ultimately contributing to the court's decision to deny him bail in 2019.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

In this episode of The Smart Real Estate Coach Podcast, I sit down with Tim Francis, founder of Great Assistant. Tim has helped over 800 entrepreneurs and investors hire trusted, high-level domestic executive assistants—not virtual assistants overseas, but real partners who become an extension of you.   Tim's story is remarkable. From losing $350K in the 2008 crash, to developing a rare illness that left him unable to walk for months, he had to rethink everything about business and life. That journey led him to discover the right way to hire and lead executive assistants, and ultimately, to build Great Assistant.   We dive into his hiring process, why most entrepreneurs fail with assistants, and how the right assistant can free you up to focus on strategy, high-level skills, and relationships—the “surgeon in the room” work that only you can do.    If you've ever felt overwhelmed juggling all the moving pieces of your real estate business, this conversation will show you how to scale sustainably.   Key Talking Points of the Episode   00:00 Introduction 00:53 Who is Tim Francis? 02:35 The 2008 crash, $350K loss, and developing a rare illness 04:24 Spiritual turning point: chasing truth and mastery, not fame and fortune 05:40 Failing with five assistants and discovering a new hiring process 08:22 Hiring Sarah—the paralegal who changed everything 10:16 The Great Assistant formula: pairing trained assistants with trained leaders 13:15 Hiring volume: why they review 50–200 candidates per role 17:06 The difference between VAs and executive assistants 19:21 What makes a great assistant: complement, not clone 20:50 The surgeon vs. nurse analogy—strategy, skill, and access vs. admin 22:15 Practical example: prepping comps and organizing negotiation notes 25:28 Why you must live out of your calendar, not your inbox 26:49 Expense vs. revenue mindset—why an assistant is a profit center 29:53 Tim's upcoming book: arranging life to minimize regret 32:45 How to connect with Tim and Great Assistant   Quotables   “Your assistant will always be an expense on paper. But your relationship with your assistant will be the biggest profit center of your career.”   “We don't want a clone of you—we want a complement. You throw the balls in the air, and they catch them and close the loops.”   “A great assistant isn't about saving time, it's about helping you fulfill your potential in this lifetime.”    Links   Episode 152: Discover the Power of a Great Assistant, with Tim Francis https://sites.libsyn.com/101440/episode-152-discover-the-power-of-a-great-assistant-with-tim-francis   Get a Great Assistant by Tim Francis https://greatassistant.com/book   Great Assistant https://smartrealestate.com/greatassistant   Apply for a Discovery Call with Great Assistant https://greatassistant.com/apply   Tim Francis https://www.instagram.com/realtimfrancis   QLS Live + QLS 4.0 at $199 smartrealestatecoach.com/qlspodcast    Just QLS 4.0 at ½ off smartrealestatecoach.com/qls  Coupon code: pod   Apprentice Program 3paydaysapprentice.com Coupon code: Podcast   Masterclass smartrealestatecoach.com/masterspodcast   Wicked Smart Books wickedsmartbooks.com/podcast   Strategy Session smartrealestatecoach.com/actionpodcast   Partners smartrealestatecoach.com/podcastresources

At the 2025 Emmy Awards, a $100K charity challenge to shorten speeches backfired and went into the negative before host Nate Bargatze and CBS stepped in with a $350K donation, while Stephen Colbert, facing CBS cancellation, joked about job hunting by bringing his résumé and headshot to the stage. The FBI revealed DNA on a towel wrapped around the rifle tied suspect Tyler Robinson to Charlie Kirk's murder, as Kirk's widow Erika gave an emotional speech vowing to continue his mission through Turning Point USA, and a massive memorial at State Farm Stadium is set for September 21 with Trump expected to attend. Reports also surfaced that Robinson was living with a transgender partner now cooperating with the FBI, and that he joked online after the killing by claiming a doppelgänger did it and mocking investigators. Meanwhile, Taylor Swift secretly attended Travis Kelce's first home game shielded by security screens, and Chris Brown caused a stir by grinding on Kelce's ex Kayla Nicole onstage during his concert.

118:Dental Financial Planning: Turning Chaos into Financial Freedom - Part 8In this episode of The Dental Boardroom Podcast, host Wes Read, CPA CFP®, continues the financial planning series for dental practice owners by focusing on a critical phase three step: determining your payroll (W-2 income) as an S-Corp owner.Wes explains how payroll fits into your broader business financial plan, why it matters for tax efficiency, and how it interacts with retirement plan strategies like 401(k)s and defined benefit plans. You'll learn when to keep your W-2 lower to save on FICA taxes, and when to raise it to maximize retirement contributions and long-term wealth building.What You'll Learn in This Episode:The five-step sequence of financial planning for dental practice owners.Why S-Corp owners must pay themselves a W-2 salary and how the IRS views it.The relationship between W-2 income, K-1 distributions, and taxable income.How different retirement plan strategies (solo 401k, Roth 401k, profit share, defined benefit) affect payroll decisions.The three funding “buckets” in a 401(k): elective deferral, safe harbor, and profit sharing.Why Roth 401(k)s are powerful for building a tax-free retirement bucket.Guidelines for setting W-2 payroll:No retirement plan: Keep W-2 as low as possible ($75K–$100K minimum).Basic 401(k) without profit share: Stay around $100K–$125K.401(k) with profit share and defined benefit plan: Increase W-2 up to IRS maximums (~$350K in 2025).The benefits and costs of defined benefit plans—and why they can be worth it for high earners.How “tax diversification” (tax-free, tax-deferred, taxable buckets) increases long-term flexibility and savings.

Jess Fenton dismantles one of the biggest myths in the spiritual and coaching world: that consuming more content will lead to wealth. It won't.Jess explains why money itself is the most powerful activator of identity and success — and why real transformation happens the moment you invest, not after years of inspiration and free content.You'll hear:Why trying to consume your way to wealth keeps you stuck.How investing big money collapses time and instantly upgrades identity.Why £100 courses keep you comfortable but never change your life.The difference between “entertainers” who create endless content vs. activators who get real results.How money dissolves old identities and blocks at lightning speed.Why the ability to create an offer on demand is the ultimate power move for financial freedom.Jess shares real examples — from $30K mentorships to $350K activations — that show how wealth is created in the moment of financial commitment.If you're done consuming and ready to activate into your next level, this episode will shift everything you thought you knew about money, business, and identity.

Have you ever wondered what life might look like if you actually pursued the thing that makes you leap out of bed in the morning? Jake Monk's journey offers a rare glimpse into what happens when passion meets opportunity and purpose finds its perfect home.Jake's adventure begins unexpectedly when, as a teenager obsessed with fishing but with limited experience, he wins a contest for a stay at Chaudière Lodge. That single trip plants a seed that would take years to fully bloom. Working at the lodge as a young adult, Jake develops foundational skills in outdoor hospitality while forming connections that would shape his future. Though his path leads through boat sales and various careers in the marine industry, something keeps pulling him back to the water.The turning point arrives when Jake makes the bold decision to leave Southern Ontario behind and relocate to Sault Ste. Marie in the Algoma region. This move isn't just about the dramatically more affordable housing (though finding a three-bedroom home for under $350K certainly helps); it's about reconnecting with what matters. The slower pace, the genuine community connections, and most importantly, the unparalleled access to world-class fishing waters creates the perfect environment for Jake to build something authentic.Now guiding full-time in a region where nearly every freshwater species swims within a two-hour radius, Jake has discovered what many spend a lifetime searching for – work that transcends the paycheck. "This is the one thing I would say in my whole life where I wake up excited, I enjoy doing it, and if I won the lottery one day and money was no object, I would still want to do this," he shares with the kind of conviction that can't be manufactured.His story serves as both inspiration and practical roadmap for anyone questioning their current path. The career satisfaction Jake found didn't come from chasing status or money, but from creating experiences that mirror the transformative moments from his own youth. Every client represents a chance to spark that same love of fishing that changed his own life trajectory years ago.Ready to reimagine what your relationship with work could be? Listen to Jake's full conversation and consider what might be possible if you followed your own compass north – whether literally or figuratively – toward the life that's been waiting for you all along.

Had an AHA or Insight? Share it:Are you doing everything right—but still can't break past six figures? Leslie Hassler, author of Scaling Rich, reveals the overlooked reason most entrepreneurs plateau—and it's not your offer, your funnel, or your team.If you've been stuck around the low six figures wondering why all the hard work still isn't getting you to the next level, this episode is for you. I sat down with Leslie Hassler—author of Scaling Rich and founder of Your Biz Rules® and we talk about what's really keeping you from breaking through to the next level, and spoiler alert: it's not your offer, your team, or your strategy. It's something else—and she knows exactly how to fix it.Leslie shares the power of a fractional C-suite, and how the equivalent of a single salary can get you an entire team. When we want to hire for growth we look for the next hire, not for the suite that can get us there faster. Leslie explains how to do that and achieve sustainable growth. Any new stage of business requires a new mindset because no amount of strategy will scale your business if you are not evolving with it.If you're hovering around $350K to $500K and you want to play in a bigger league, here is your playbook.

Nick Fowler is a Navy Aviation Rescue Swimmer turned viral marketing coach and TikTok Shop expert who's helped generate over $9.5M in sales through affiliate content. What started as a few free products and a $180 commission in his first week turned into a one‑month blowout—$350K in sales and $59K in commissions. Now Nick teaches aspiring creators how to grow, monetize, and go viral on TikTok without needing a huge following. Top 3 Takeaways: TikTok Shop is still a Blue Ocean: The platform is barely two years old, with low competition in many product categories. Volume + Hooks = Sales: Consistent posting with curiosity‑driven openers and problem‑solving demos drives clicks and conversions. Start broad, then niche: Test everything early—double down on categories where your videos convert best. Notable Quotes: “The hook at the beginning is everything—if you lose them there, nothing else matters.” “I made my yearly salary in the military in one month on TikTok.” “Pick products you can visually solve a problem with—it's easier to sell what you can show.” Connect with Nick Fowler: TikTok: @thenickfowler

Don and Tom take a reality sledgehammer to investors' wildly inflated expectations for stock market returns. A new survey shows average Americans expect 12.6% after inflation, even as historical real returns rarely crack 9%. They explore how this overconfidence—fueled by recency bias and company loyalty—leads to dangerous behavior like under-saving, over-spending, and poorly diversified portfolios. With real-world client stories, historical decade-by-decade returns, and a deep dive into how long it takes portfolios to recover after major drops, they reinforce the need for long-term discipline and diversified planning. The episode wraps with audience questions on umbrella policies, retirement bond ladders, and smart ETF tax-loss harvesting strategies. 0:04 Don delays the podcast waiting for Tom's arrival (with British accent) 1:30 Survey shock: Investors expect 12.6% real annual returns 2:28 Reality check: Actual global stock returns are closer to 9% 3:45 Dangerous real-world portfolios: 100% S&P 500 near retirement 5:30 One-stock portfolios tied to employers—what could go wrong? 6:50 Under-saving due to false optimism about future returns 7:14 Decade-by-decade historical real returns from 1930–2020s 10:13 The Dave Ramsey fantasy: 8% withdrawals on 12% returns 10:40 Recency bias: Why we forget recent downturns so fast 11:05 50% of years see 10% drops; 1 in 3 see 20% drops 12:47 Emotional investing vs. disciplined long-term planning 13:39 Listener Q: How long to recover from a major market drop? 14:22 Diversification shortens recovery time historically 15:36 Build for the worst case: 50% stock market drop 16:32 Listener Q: Does Ivan need an umbrella policy with $350K net worth? 17:57 Umbrellas are rarely needed—but the industry sure sells them 18:54 Listener Q: Is LifeX 10-year bond ladder a good retirement tool? 20:20 It's mostly return of principal—DIY Treasury ladders are cheaper 22:40 Don't be fooled by nice websites and big yield promises 23:24 Listener Q: Can AVGE replace four-fund ETF portfolio for tax loss harvesting? 24:32 Swap Avantis for DFA funds—nearly identical, wash-sale safe 25:56 Parting shots: Buy a decent mic, don't let emotion control your portfolio Learn more about your ad choices.

Dive into the wild, wonky whirlwind of Adams County's weekend warfare – a series of savage altercations on Deerfield Road that exploded from a bike ride gone wrong to a gunshot showdown! It all kicks off Friday night, July 11, 2025, in the Kingston area near Natchez, where 33-year-old Black resident Reginald Butler is pedaling his bicycle and crosses paths with a rowdy crew of young party-goers (mostly white dudes in bathing suits – sandbar shenanigans?). What starts as a simple cig request (or so they say) spirals into pure mayhem: Butler's knocked off his bike, pummeled by four assailants, suffering a fractured nose and possible concussion. He bolts on his bike, heads home, grabs a handgun for "protection," and pedals back – big mistake or bold move?   Enter round two: Butler runs into the group at another bridge spot. They allegedly drag him into the woods, resuming the beatdown. Amid the frenzy, Butler pulls his piece and blasts Hayden Pounds in the chest – one round also ripping through a nearby vehicle! Pounds gets airlifted to a hospital but bounces back and is released. The whole mess is caught on multiple phone cams, igniting community fury across racial lines – hundreds raging on social media, calling it a "heinous" attack no one should endure.   Arrests drop like dominoes: Butler's hauled in for aggravated assault, bonds out on $50K. Then Cameron Taunton (21, Vidalia, LA – already on probation for assaulting a disabled person) gets nabbed, charges upgraded from simple assault to aggravated assault and conspiracy ($350K bond). Houston Pretty (18, Vidalia) faces the same: aggravated assault and conspiracy ($350K). A 16-year-old juvenile joins the lineup with identical charges – name withheld. Sheriff Travis Patten warns more collars coming, with MBI and FBI probing for hate crime vibes (racial slurs? Lynching echoes?).   Clay unpacks the insanity: "Hard to buy a cig ask sparks this – motive missing? Butler escapes, arms up, returns – kills self-defense claim. If roles reversed under Biden DOJ, hate crime charges fly!" Questions swirl: Why the bridge? Who started round two? Innocent cig stop or deeper beef? Brace for national spotlight – Ben Crump incoming? This ain't just a fight; it's Mississippi's powder keg of race, rights, and reckless returns. Boom – truth bombs dropping!
