Matthew is a University of Kentucky College of Law Graduate and currently works as the Chief Commercial Officer at Priori. This episode with Matthew Wheatley was truly one of the favorites I've ever had on this podcast. I always tell my guests to keep things as informal as possible, and Matt took that to heart. This was less of an interview and more of a genuine conversation between two guys who just clicked. Matt is a University of Kentucky College of Law graduate who went from making $55K as a lawyer in Kentucky to taking a huge risk and moving to New York City to chase the dream of living in the big city, working as a legal recruiter, and making $60K. From there, he worked his way through the alternative legal services space and is now the Chief Commercial Officer at Priori, a legal tech company that helps lawyers practice on their own terms.What stands out about Matt's story is his honesty about not having that “blue chip” background and not following the traditional path that so many lawyers feel locked into. He looked where others weren't looking, committed to the alternative legal services world, and built a career where there was far less competition because nobody else was trying to do what he was doing. His insight that your pedigree stops mattering once you get into the real world and that it's the small things, like genuinely caring and making the people around you better, is something every law student and professional needs to hear.This was a fantastic, wide-ranging conversation covering everything from bacon, egg, and cheese to Plato's cave allegory.

US equities were lower this week, with the S&P 500 down for a second-straight week, posting its worst performance since late November. The Iran conflict was the big story of the week, with the US and Israel attacking Iran over the weekend and killing Iran's Supreme Leader. The macro resilience theme was upended by Friday's February payrolls report, which showed an ~92K decline, missing consensus for a +55K gain.

Mike and Ryan break down Bitcoin's cycle awareness signals now that BTC has hit “fair value.” Using long-term holder supply in profit, MVRV, and the 200-week moving average, they compare today's setup to the 2018 and 2022 bear markets and show how much returns changed when investors waited for “deep value.” Then they get practical on portfolio management: deploy now vs wait, how much cash to keep, and why Mike just made a second BTC buy while staying ready for a potential $50K to $55K scare.----

In 2019, I had $6,000 in my bank account and sat next to a guy who casually mentioned he "only" made $55K that month. I told my mentor I didn't think my business could ever make that much. His response? A single question I couldn't answer—one that changed how I built everything from that point forward. Want help executing on what you're learning?

What if feeling like you only had a stick on the battlefield was the moment God showed you the sword? In this episode, Francis Piché shares his declaration: to create the best men's group in the world for conscious men who want to establish something beyond their own life. The Knight Club isn't just about mission, it's about working on that mission together with brothers who share the heroic code (humility, excellence, respect, optimism, integrity, and courage). His vision? Chapters around the world where men can travel to Paris, London, Barcelona, or Sydney and know they'll connect with people like them who they can do life and business with. Francis was inspired by a recent trip to Scotland where he felt deeply connected to the knighthood and brotherhood, realizing this is his next chapter. He reveals the dark night in Orange County when he felt so powerless that ending it all seemed like the only option. Financial debt, feeling worthless in a place full of luxury cars, unable to even talk to a woman because his self-esteem was on the floor. After rejecting his friend's money in anger, he told his brother Jason he felt like all he had on the battlefield was a stick, not even a sword. That conversation saved his life. Later, Francis asked for the photo of the bright star he'd seen that night. The star's name? Sisaph, which means "the sword of the giant." God had the story for him all along. Francis also shares how his sales mentor Bob Smith told him after selling his entire year's quota in six months: "What do you mean 150%? Your goal is 200%. That's how successful people think."   [00:07:06] The Knight Club Declaration Declaration: Create the best men's group in the world for conscious men, men of faith Men who want to establish something beyond their own life, creating a legacy Rising together in ups and downs, working on mission together Differentiator: Not only thinking about mission, working on it with Thinking Into Results program [00:08:40] The Vision: Chapters Around the World Vision inspired by recent Scotland trip, felt connected to knighthood and brotherhood Imagine chapters everywhere: Paris, London, Barcelona, Sydney, South America Connect with people like you who share the heroic code Can do life and business with them, have great time traveling [00:09:20] The Heroic Code Humility, excellence, respect, optimism, integrity, and courage All guys in group embody these attributes, you can rely on this Creating retreats for men, sometimes incorporating women together Traveling, connecting great people, business owners, dreamers who want to make difference [00:11:40] Am I Alive While I'm Alive? Best friend died last year out of nowhere at 47 Asked himself: "Am I alive while I'm alive? Am I having a bold life?" Bold means: Brave, Original, Loving, and having Dedication to a cause/mission Purpose of life: be fully alive, being free, helping others, making a difference [00:17:00] The Dark Night in Orange County Two-three years ago, perfect storm: waiting for clients not responsive, deeply in debt Felt not good for own clients, business not showing up, felt powerless and meaningless Saw beautiful woman at hookah bar but too scared to talk, she left in McLaren Friend Simon teased "Be a man, why don't you talk to her?" hitting self-esteem to floor [00:19:20] The Stick on the Battlefield Rejected friend's money with gesture he felt, was rejecting own friend and self "What's the point? Why am I here? I'm not even a man" Only reason didn't consider ending it: didn't want burden of bringing body back to parents Friend Jason had long conversation, wouldn't let him give up [00:21:00] The Sword of the Giant Told Jason: "If I was on battlefield right now, all I have is a stick, not even a sword" After conversation felt reignited, asked for photo of bright star from that night Looked up name of star: Sisaph, which means "the sword of the giant" "God had that story for you. You're the giant, you're the star. Remember this." [00:22:20] The Power of Brotherhood Moment of reawakening the giant within Not just support in bad times, also celebrating good times All have ceilings, all have pressure (next exit, firing employees, etc.) Requires new identity to go to next level [00:24:40] The Godfather's Wisdom At 16, godfather gave birthday card: "Don't choose job for paycheck" "Do what makes your heart come alive, otherwise you'll be poor all your life" Chose multinational job for $55K over $30K small organization that offered travel Was miserable for four years, flames diminished every day [00:26:20] Found the Card 20 Years Later At 36, found the card and realized: "He was right" Associated being successful with getting all that, which is a lie If you have enough of your why and excitement, you'll go through challenges Purpose of living: to be fully enlivened [00:27:20] Bob Smith: The Sales Mentor Week before starting new job at Xerox, fiancée said "I want to cancel the wedding" Three months before wedding, she left next day, "house of cards collapsed" Sales coach Bob Smith at bootcamp helped him recreate himself Bob's lesson: "Seven things to be a successful salesperson... #7 most important: Have fun" [00:29:00] "You Can Do Anything You Want" After bootcamp, thanked Bob for the week Bob put hand on shoulder, piercing eyes: "I've watched you this week" "You can do anything you want in your life. It's just up to you" Gave permission to go for it [00:29:40] Sold Entire Year in Six Months Won rookie of the year, at six months sold whole year's quota Told Bob "My goal now is 150% for President's Club" Bob: "What do you mean 150%? Your goal is 200%. That's how successful people think" Ended at 167% of plan, almost best in entire company, second place [00:37:20] Are You Alive While You're Alive? Friend passed away from running, something burst in heart, died at 47 Life is precious, not just at 65-80, but now Mission: make sure fully playing game, not playing small Other friend with cancer chose date, said: "Never let anyone or anything sway you from who you really are"   KEY QUOTES "The name of the star was Sisaph, which means the sword of the giant.

To a first approximation, all farmed animals are bugs. (Recalling, of course, that shrimps is bugs.) We don't know much about their needs in current production systems. The Arthropoda Foundation is trying to fix that. If we want to help the most numerous farmed animals, we have to answer some basic empirical questions. Arthropoda funds the scientists who provide those answers. Good science isn't cheap, fast, or flashy. But if we don't fund it, we're left guessing about the welfare of the most numerous animals on farms (and in the wild). The stakes are too high for guesswork. This year, Arthropoda granted out ~$160K to fund seven studies. That's seven studies for at least a trillion farmed animals. (And untold numbers of wild animals.) We could easily grant out much more. And with a staff person, we could actively develop projects to support. But as it is, we're at capacity. In its current form, Arthropoda costs about $175K per year, at least 80% of which covers grants. The rest covers costs associated with learning more about the state of the industry, running a small coordination event, and legal compliance with charitable regulations. We're about $55K short for 2026.

Recho Omondi is the host of The Cutting Room Floor, a beloved fashion podcast that's known for its industry insider interviews and no-BS tone. But recently, Omondi made headlines for posting a job listing offering $55K a year—for what many argued was three roles in one. The internet lit up with people feeling a variety of mixed emotions about the creator and about creative industries as a whole. Today, we're exploring why this moment touched a nerve—and what it reveals about labor, legacy, and the price of “breaking in” to fashion.--Join us over on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Substack⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for newsletter accessJoin us over on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join us over on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Insta⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ (@thoughtfulthreadspod)Support this small creative platform ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Say hi! hithoughtfulthreads@gmail.com

In today's episode of Georgio Says, we're diving into the freshly dropped Real Housewives of Potomac Season 10 trailer—yes, the women have clocked in, and the new cast members promise plenty of messy moments. But first, I get something off my chest about a viral fashion-world job posting that offered just $55K with no benefits—sparking a debate on labor, privilege, and what it really means to value people's work. From there, we unpack Denise Richards' messy divorce drama with Aaron Phypers, why Us Weekly's latest RHOC “exclusive” fell flat, and what this means for the Bravo news cycle.

Send us a textGet ready for an exhilarating UTMB OCC race preview that blends expert analysis with laugh-out-loud banter! James Lariello teams up with Teddy Tonelli from the Chasing Trail podcast to break down this iconic 55K mountain race that features over 11,000 feet of climbing through some of the most spectacular terrain in the Alps.The duo dives deep into what makes OCC special - from its technical course that prohibits switchback cutting to the mandatory gear requirements that add an extra layer of challenge. With forecasts showing potential rain and temperatures ranging from 48-68°F, the stage is set for an unpredictable battle on the trails.At the heart of this preview is the much-anticipated showdown between Jim Walmsley and Adam Peterman, two American ultra-running stars rarely seen competing in the same race. Has Walmsley's move to France (and his newly acquired French accent, as the hosts joke) given him the European edge? Can Peterman, coming back from injuries, reclaim his position among the elite? The hosts also highlight other Americans to watch including Michelino Sanseri and rising star Cade Michael.On the women's side, defending champion and course record holder Mao Yao returns to face stiff competition from Switzerland's Judith Weider and a strong American contingent led by Hannah Allgood and Sophia Lockley. Canadian Jasmine Lather, fresh off setting records on the Grand Teton, brings her exceptional climbing ability into the mix.Between the analysis, Teddy and James deliver hilarious commentary on everything from European shower habits to the dangers of aggressive Alpine cows, making this preview as entertaining as it is informative. Their chemistry shines through as they debate their podium picks and contemplate the future of betting in trail running.Whether you're planning to follow the live coverage or just want to understand what makes OCC one of the most competitive races of the UTMB weekend, this episode offers the perfect blend of insight, predictions, and trail running culture. Tune in before Thursday's race to get fully primed for what promises to be an epic mountain running showdown!Follow Chasing Trail on Spotify - @chasingtrail Follow Chasing Trail on Apple - @chasingtrailFollow Chasing Trail on Youtube - @chasingtrailFollow James on IG - @jameslaurielloFollow the Steep Stuff Podcast on IG - @steepstuff_podUse code steepstuffpod for 25% off your cart at UltimateDirection.com! 

In this episode of the Expert Speaker Podcast, Majeed Mogharreban interviews real estate investor and wholesaling expert Theresa Beneteau. With 37 years of experience and a deep passion for helping others escape the 9-to-5 grind, Theresa shares how she went from nearly losing her first home at 20 to building a multi-country real estate empire—all starting with wholesaling. She breaks down exactly what wholesaling is, how it works in any market, and how she made $55K from one deal—without owning, fixing, or even visiting the property. Key Takeaways: What Is Real Estate Wholesaling? Wholesaling is the process of putting a property under contract and then selling that contract to another buyer—without ever owning the property. Theresa's Origin Story From struggling 20-year-old homeowner to real estate mogul, Theresa shares the raw and real story of how she learned about wholesaling from a mentor who changed her life. A $55,000 Payday Story Theresa details a creative win-win-win transaction that helped a distressed seller avoid a lawsuit and gave a buyer an incredible investment opportunity—all in just four days, netting her $55,000 without ever touching the property. How to Find Good Deals Motivation is key—distressed sellers create opportunities. Theresa explains why understanding seller psychology is more important than negotiating tactics. Wholesaling in Any Market Whether you're in a recession or a hot market, the strategy stays the same. The key is identifying the right buyers and markets. The Power of Remote Wholesaling Thanks to today's technology, wholesaling can now be done completely remotely, even across borders. Why She Wrote "Insta Wholesaler" Theresa's book distills 35+ years of experience into a step-by-step guide for anyone—especially 18 to 30-year-olds—who wants to enter the real estate game the smart way. Notable Quotes: “Don't quit on yourself. Don't quit before the money happens.” – Rick (Theresa's mentor) “Wholesaling is legal. You're just selling the contract—not the house.” – Theresa Beneteau “If you're not where you want to be financially, let's change that. Not one more minute, not one more day.” – Theresa Beneteau “I did it the hard way—with a corded phone, a printed MLS book, and no internet. You've got no excuse now.” – Theresa Beneteau Action Steps: Visit www.instawholesaler.com to grab Theresa's book Book a strategy call with Theresa at www.teresabeneteau.com Take the first step to financial freedom by learning how to wholesale from someone who's lived it Listen If You Are: Tired of the 9-to-5 grind and ready for a change A beginner in real estate looking for a low-barrier entry point Curious about creative ways to build wealth Interested in working remotely in real estate A young adult (18-30) looking for mentorship and fast-track financial results

On today's Wholesale Hotline (Subto Edition), Pace breaks down a real-life Subject-To deal in extreme detail, showing how he acquired a house with zero dollars out of pocket and turned a break-even rental into a $20K/year cash-flowing asset. Show notes — in this episode we'll cover: What made this property so prime for creative financing, what Pace said and how he pulled it off. Pace explains how expired listings (especially those bought between 2020-2022 with no equity) are a goldmine for Subject-To deals and how one of his students sourced this deal using the “Kevin Cho List” strategy. Full financial breakdown: $55K total capital (paid by a private money lender), monthly payments of $1,268 (mortgage) + $366 (private lender), and various exit strategies including wraps, lease options, and group homes that can 10X cash flow. By turning the home into a group home rental, Pace increases potential rent from $1,800 to $3,600/month, transforming a break-even property into one generating $1,800/month in net cash flow—proof of how exit strategy is everything in creative real estate.   ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ ☎️ Welcome to Wholesale Hotline & Subto Breakout✌️✌️! ☎️ Need discounts and free trials!?

I really don't like talking...that is why I ask the questions! BUT, on this episode it is just me rambling about my experience at the Mt. Mitchell Heartbreaker 50M this past Saturday, March 22nd. First of all, the weather was absolutely perfect...chilly in the morning and rising to around 68 or so in the afternoon. Clear, sunny and beautiful. I know Brandon (race director) was so happy to finally get a forecast like this for a race! I tried to go into this race with zero expectations and simply enjoy the day (and pain...). This was also my birthday run, as I had turned 47 just the day before, so that made this one super special to me. Listen as I describe as many details as possible for you about my journey through the mountains. Ultimately, I ended up 3rd lady and 12th overall, and I could not have been happier with the result. This race was definitely challenging and the legs were hurting, but the views, aid stations, friends and family lifted my spirits...all that I would want for a day in the woods. Congratulations to all who tackled the 55K or the 50M and survived. I am honored to share the trails with you. Thank you for listening! Mt.

Is it time for me (this is KJ) to start a new novel? Not quite-quite-quite, but that time is coming. There's a decent chance that the novel I'm working on now will be finished, in the now-we-try-to-sell-it sense, soonish. And that will take some time, and maybe it won't happen (I know, you think I'm just saying that but no, it's really quite possible). Even if it does, at some point very soon that will be out of my hands for long enough to start working on something new—and if I'm lucky, that will co-incide with November and National Novel Writing Month, which is my favorite time to write a 55K word draft that probably will contain approximately 1737 words that end up in an actual novel but that seems to be part of my “process”. I think my process is a raging dumpster fire but out of the ashes arise books so fine, this is how I do it. First, I'll need an idea. Jennie Nash and I recorded a whole summer about “Ideating” (Episodes 366-373—The Idea Factory). I'd argue that this is possibly the most important part. Sarina and I have a partially joking saying: Friends don't let friends write books without hooks. But an idea is a multi-part creation. It's not just a hook, it's not just a premise. A premise is vampires that feed only on people descended from the original crew and passengers on the Mayflower, and maybe that's a hook as well. It's not an idea until we know why it matters, and who it matters to within the book and why it might therefore matter to readers. Honestly, I'll probably get that second bit wrong to start with, but you have to start somewhere. Right now, though, I don't even have the first bit. Maybe you don't either. Maybe you have an idea noodling around inside you, or more likely fifty. Maybe you can mash some of them together. Maybe they're all amorphous or flimsy or when closely examined take place in a world or mood that you don't want to live in for the next couple of years. But you have to pick one and see where it goes. I started this thinking I could help with that, and now I'm not so sure. I mean, I have a plan. I know what I am going to do, or what I think I'm going to do, but it's hardly a step-by-step formula for success. It's going to go something like this:* Wander the bookstore. Most people buy their books online from descriptions now, but genre still matters. Look at the piles of romantasy (romance/fantasy), the growing tables of horror and horr-antsy (I made that up but it should be a thing). The buy-one-get-one-half-off tables of romance and thrillers, and speaking of thrillers, that's a pretty broad category that ranges from “your heart is in your throat the whole time” to “huh, I wonder what's going on here”. Series mystery, which I think is the only thing left that's really “mystery” and not “thriller”. Pick up a book from “fiction” that's described right in the cover copy as a “second chance romance” and try to figure out why it's in one place and not the other. (One Last Shot by Betty Cayouette, which I found by googling what I remembered from the cover copy: book second chance model photographer theo italy. Nicely done, Google.) Sigh, give up, and try not to contemplate whether the world really needs any more books. It does not. But I need to write one, so it's getting one. #sorrynotsorry* Play the airport game, which we talked about in Episode 367 HERE). Basically it goes like this: go to an airport (or ask a friend who's going somewhere). Find the Hudson or whatever your airport general shops are called that has the SMALLEST selection of books. Like, one rack face out. Take a picture and then walk yourself through it and ask, “which of these books is most like something I could have written?” Examine those books closely, asking two primary questions: 1) why is this in the airport bookstore (why do people love it/buy it) and 2) why is it like something I could have written? Then spend your flight, or two hours in a coffee shop, coming up with an idea and a brief pitch for something that resembles each one of those books. You have no more than 30 minutes for each book/pitch, and it must have a title, a logline, rough flap copy, inner and outer plots and a story arc with a beginning, middle and end. * Do a wild title brainstorm. Sometimes a book just has a great title. Beach Read, Summer Romance, A Star is Bored, Blonde Identity. The last time I made a list of “great titles” I hit one—Romantic Comedy—that someone else has recently used to great success and came very very close on two others. Should you write a book just because you have a great title idea? No of course not, but some great titles could apply to a LOT of book ideas. People are buying the vibe, not the plot, when they buy Brooklynaire.* Mayyyybe look over your old idea notebooks, if you have them. I have some mixed feelings about this, since I don't want to let my current idea generating muscle off the hook. But these might also jog something loose. I have my 2022 book out now for this purpose. * Pick a couple ideas—say three—and noodle them out further. Now we're pretty much into the whole Idea Factory protocol from the summer of 2022—and that DID end up with me writing one of the books we talked about. So apparently it “worked”.That's my plan. Y'all know I like to set “sticker” goals—a nice thing about this is its flexibility.Hey writers. I'm Jennie Nash, founder and CEO of Author Accelerator.

This past week, I shared an Instagram post about the day I entered a marriage that I didn't realize was abusive until I left. In order to leave that marriage, I took on our combined $55K in debt. Since I have so many new subscribers on YouTube (thanks for being here!), I thought it would be great to share my personal story, originally published as episode 33 of the podcast! It is because of my personal experiences with debt that I believe so strongly in helping women to take charge of their personal finances and build their wealth. Don't be shamed by your personal money story, learn from it and be empowered by it.  Are you ready to create a high profit business strategy that grows your business, profits, and bank account?

They don't catch everything (no Virgin Atlantic on a couple, no BA / QR Avios, didn't see LifeMiles for my redemption, etc) (1:03:41) - Consider keeping stashes in programs you use often. This only applies if you have a lot of points and miles, but it could help avoid a failed transfer. (1:05:27) - Watch out for transfer times (1:08:10) - Get a good VPN. I wonder if some of my problems could have been averted if I'd used one all along. (1:11:22) - Know that Aeroplan's contact center isn't 24/7. This can be a big pain when you're overseas. (1:12:37) - Beware the phantom menace. Tons of Swiss space that isn't real. (1:17:02) - Have some tricks up your sleeve. This could alternatively be called "persistence pays off". Don't give up right away. Examples include searching Avianca's site multiple ways, forcing a stopover with Aeroplan to get a flight to show up, booking a refundable something as a backup, etc. (1:20:10) - How do you go about finding activities while you travel?
