This week's live session breaks down our government‑backed real estate playbook — the programs that lower down payments, guarantee rents, and make commercial deals possible for beginners. Peter simplifies the financing tools, the loan guarantees, and the housing voucher systems that turn Section 8 into reliable, stress‑free cash flow.Student Spotlight: You'll also hear how Ken used these steps to acquire a 24‑unit property, raise its performance, and grow it from a $1.2M purchase to a $2.9M valuation — building roughly $1.7M in wealth in three years using government support. He'll walk through the government program he used and how he applied the playbook from start to finish.

Chad and Natalie sit down with Matt Bowyer, the Orange County bookie at the center of the Shohei Ohtani gambling scandal, for the full story behind the headlines. Matt ran one of the largest illegal sports betting operations in the country for over 30 years. At his peak he had 1,250 clients nationwide, 48 agents, and processed over $1 billion in wagers in 2023 alone. He was also betting millions of his own money because gambling was his addiction and he was the house getting high on his own supply. The feds raided him twice. The first time was 2014, 14 agents, his daughter crying in the driveway, coming home from losing $800,000 in Vegas on March Madness. The case didn't start with Ohtani. The feds didn't even know about Ohtani. The case started with casino money laundering, led to Matt, and then his electronics told the rest of the story.He grew up watching his Vietnam vet father drink 40 beers a day until his mom divorced him after three failed rehabs. By 13 he was the top newspaper salesman in Orange County. At 16 he had a poker ring running out of his house. At 18, with his girlfriend pregnant and the family in a Dana Point mobile home, he got hired as a busboy at Chevys, got recruited to a commodities brokerage, passed the Series 3 exam as a mail boy, and was making $600,000 a year at 21. He bought back the house his family had lost. Then he got tired of giving his money to bookies.He currently owes $9.7 million in taxes at $60,000 a month in interest. Tax lien on his $5 million home. Two years probation, mandatory Gamblers Anonymous, mandatory drug dealer classes every week. And a new book dropping called Controlled Chaos. #TheHopeaholics #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #Hope #wedorecover #treatmentcenter #natalieevamarieJoin our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Go to www.Wolfpak.com today and support our sponsors.

In this solo episode, I'm breaking down the ONE thing I truly want you to take away from Nici Sweaney's story — because since we posted those two episodes, I've been having so many conversations where people are taking away the wrong lessons.Yes, Nici just went from a $1.5 million launch to $2.5 million in the last two months. But if you're sitting there thinking the secret was zero ad spend, or that memberships are the model, or that you need to pivot to AI to win right now — I want to stop you right there.In this episode we cover:— Wh $2.5M in 2 months doesn't mean what most people think it means — The 3 things I don't want you to hold onto from Nici's story — Why Nici not using paid ads makes her a unicorn — not a blueprint — Why a membership is not the model for everyone and how Nici actually chose hers — Why you absolutely do not need to sell AI to win right now (Jessi Jean's $7M is proof) — The ONE real takeaway: one offer, one business model, one marketing strategy — Why the 1-1-1 framework creates compounding focus, data and results — The question I want every coach and consultant to answer before Q3 and Q4 — The free revenue calculator tool to help you map it all outRELATED EPISODES — Nici Sweaney's $1.5M Launch: Part 1: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2593652/episodes/19382672Part 2: https://www.buzzsprout.com/2593652/episodes/19415896LINKS:FREE GUIDE: Sell Out & Retain Mastermind Clients in 2026: https://ellieswift.com/mastermind2026Connect with Ellie on Instagram: https://instagram.com/elliehswiftSubscribe to Inside The Mastermind Newsletter: https://ellieswift.com/newsletterWatch on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@elliehswiftKeen to work together?Sell Out Your Mastermind: The Mastermind Model - https://ellieswift.com/modelBe Coached By Ellie to $500k+ : The Scalable Freedom Mastermind - https://ellieswift.com/scalablefreedom

Nick Foster has been a Front Row Dads member since 2021. He's also the founder of Foster Financial, a husband to his high school sweetheart Carrie, and a dad to three kids. This week, Nick sits down with Jon to talk about what happens after you build the business. Nick spent 10 years building his CPA firm to $2.7 million and 13 employees. Then he stepped back and hit the question a lot of successful dads eventually face: now what? This conversation is about the first mountain (achievement, the grind, proving yourself) and the second mountain (giving, presence, being a good human), and what it actually looks like to make that shift while raising a family. Nick gets honest about a lot in this one. What you'll hear: → The wall with his teenage daughter and how he keeps showing up → Building a $2.7M business and the weight nobody talks about → Losing your identity when the business is no longer the target → The little brother from Big Brothers Big Sisters who changed his life → What actually makes his marriage work after 18 years → The thing his wife does that triggers him (and how he's learning to handle it) → Teaching kids about money, including the Roth IRA move most parents miss → The birthday tradition that makes him cry every time → From atheist to a man of faith If you've been climbing hard and quietly wondering whether it's the right mountain, this one is worth your time.

The nonprofit called Austin Coming Together announced this week that it purchased the J.J. Walser House at 42 North Central Avenue. BLOCK CLUB reports the house designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and built in 1903 became a city landmark in 1984, but has sat in deteriorating condition since the house's owner died in 2019. Last year, the Walser House was named to both Chicago's “most endangered properties” list by Preservation Chicago and Illinois' Most Endangered Historic Places list by Landmark Illinois. Austin Coming Together now plans to fundraise so it can restore the J.J. Walser House, which the nonprofit says will cost $2.7M to $3.5M.

Doron Levi arrived in the U.S. as a twenty-year-old immigrant with no safety net and barely enough money to get by. He worked every job he could find, learned the service industry from the ground up, and went on to build and exit multiple multi-million-dollar companies. Then he bet on himself again, this time in real estate, and skipped the typical fix and flip starting point entirely. His first project was a ground-up 25-unit development, turning a half-block warehouse into a $7M asset that later grew to $13M. That deal became the foundation for everything that followed. Today Doron has over $70M in improved real estate across multifamily, commercial, and redevelopment projects, and he operates as a developer, builder, operator, investor, and mentor. In this episode we get into how he made the jump from running service businesses to ground-up development, why he believes relationships matter more than returns in this business, and how he evaluates deals and spots potential in land and people before it's obvious to anyone else. We also talk about the human side of real estate investing: the role of trust, communication, and emotional intelligence in winning deals, and why Doron sees his work as building people and confidence, not just buildings. If you're trying to figure out how to scale past your first deal or you're curious what it actually takes to go from nothing to a $70M portfolio, this conversation is packed with real, lived-experience insight.

Send us Fan MailOn today's PoM Podcast I sat down with founder and CEO of Seven Weeks Coffee, Anton Krecic. From the beginning their mission was clear: if they were going to build something, it had to make an impact. That's why they have committed to donating 10% of every sale (50% of profits) to support pregnancy resource centers and the pro-life community. The name itself comes from a powerful detail: at seven weeks, a baby is about the size of a coffee bean.To date, they have donated over $1.7M to pregnancy resource centers across the country.To to learn more visit: https://sevenweekscoffee.com/Learn more about The Pursuit of Manliness: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/ Join The Herd: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/join-the-herdRegister for our 2026 Fall Men's Retreat: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/2026-mens-retreatSupport the show

MLB puso sobre la mesa una propuesta enorme que podría cambiar por completo el Draft: sacar a los jugadores de high school, hacer elegibles a universitarios desde segundo año, reducir el Draft de 20 a 12 rondas y bajar el bonus pool de $358.7M a $200M.En este episodio analizamos qué busca MLB con este movimiento, por qué la MLBPA puede rechazarlo y cómo esto afectaría a prospectos, equipos pequeños, universidades y el desarrollo de talento.Además repasamos las noticias más calientes de la semana:
He's back! Keith Clarke, Senior Director of Corporate and Community Partnerships at Princess Margaret Cancer Foundation and the most-listened-to guest in Real Talk history, returns for a conversation that's just as good as the first time — maybe even better. Keith manages a $7M+ community events portfolio that consistently holds multiple spots in Canada's Top 30 fundraising events. In this episode, he and Amy get into the real stuff: how you build a portfolio of events that don't cannibalize each other, why passion is still the thing that separates good fundraisers from great ones, and what Princess Margaret does differently that most organizations miss. If you've ever wondered what it actually looks like to run events at the highest level without losing the human touch, this one's for you. Key Components:How Princess Margaret manages multiple rides, walks, DIY programs, and social challenges without losing participants to their own events — and why the "competing with yourself" fear is worth rethinkingWhat white-glove service actually looks like in practice, and why Keith says it comes from putting culture first, budget secondThe best practices Keith shares with every third-party event organizer who calls him: where most people start too big and what to do insteadWhy human contact is the one thing AI can't replicate — and how Princess Margaret is doubling down on it"If people trust you and like what you're doing, they will open up their heart, open up their wallet, they will open up their network. And that's key to peer-to-peer fundraising."Connect with Keith on LinkedIn

Jacob Zuppke (CEO, Whisker) joins Matt Bertulli (CEO, Pela Case & Lomi) and Mike Beckham (CEO, Simple Modern) to break down how a self-cleaning litter box company became a $1.5B brand through US manufacturing, big creative swings, and a deliberate omnichannel strategy. Jacob breaks down the marketing that fueled a decade of growth, including how TV outperformed Meta for years, and why Whisker held off Amazon until branded search volume made the case impossible to ignore. He also gets into the Whisker app, which logs 4.7 million cat weigh-ins per day, and why that software layer is where the brand's omnichannel strategy gets its deepest competitive teeth.

She told investors $440M. The real number was $15.7M. This week: the CaaStle fraud, Walmart's Subway play, and Shopify's $5B bet.In this episode:Walmart + Subway. Walmart folded Subway into its delivery app, with express orders coming off the Subway counters already sitting inside its stores. Live now in six states (Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas), with roughly 1,400 locations targeted by end of summer. Flat delivery fee, in-store menu pricing, 30 minutes or less. It rides on the Spark drivers and drones Walmart is already paying for, pointed straight at Uber Eats and DoorDash.The CaaStle fraud. CaaStle told investors it booked $440 million in net revenue for fiscal 2023. The real figure was $15.7 million. Founder and CEO Christine Hunsicker confessed to doctoring the financials on a video call with her board in December 2024, then kept her job for three more months while investors heard nothing. She controlled that board. Co-founder Jaswinder Pal "JP" Singh sold $6 million in stock back to the company around the time investors started asking questions. Hunsicker pleaded guilty to securities fraud in March, admitting she defrauded investors of $283 million, and she's scheduled for sentencing this summer.Apple rents the brains. At WWDC on June 8, Apple introduced Siri AI: a rebuild that reads what's on your screen, pulls context from your messages and email, and takes actions across apps. The part Apple said less about is who's powering it. Reporting puts Apple at more than $1 billion a year to Google for a custom Gemini model running Siri's cloud features. The China rollout waits on regulators. For a company that has spent decades insisting it owns its entire stack, renting the model from a rival is the real headline. Tim Cook hands the company to John Ternus in September.Shopify's $5 billion vote. Shopify added $3 billion to its repurchase program on June 2, taking total authorization to $5 billion. Buybacks usually get read as "we've run out of ideas." Then Q1 revenue rose 34% to $3.2 billion and merchants cleared $100 billion in GMV for the second quarter in a row. Decide for yourself which signal you believe.
Dan Frank of Silver Screen Printing is back — and a LOT has changed since his last appearance on the show. Dan went from a $2.7M print shop to projecting $23M this year with 110 employees, 60,000 sq ft, and facilities that essentially never close. Along the way: a full company restructure, two managers who had to move on, 15% raises across the leadership team, and a deliberate shift from being an operator to being a coach.
This week on The Lazy CEO Podcast, Jane sits down with Linda Hammond, co-founder of Quay Australia and founder of OTRA Eyewear - the woman who quietly built one of the most recognisable eyewear brands in the world, sold it for nine figures, and is now doing it all over again.Linda left school at 14 with no plan and no industry experience. What she built instead started with a market stall and a music festival in 1999, and grew into a brand stocked in 5,000 retailers globally, the first collab Kylie Jenner ever said yes to, and a Desi Perkins drop that sold 20,000 units and $7M in just 12 minutes. Now, with OTRA Eyewear scaling fast, Linda is proving the first time was no fluke.In this episode, she dives into: The exact first steps that got Quay off the ground, and what actually moved the needle early on. How she cracked retail, from City Beach to Nasty Gal, and the decisions that changed the trajectory of the brand. The strategy behind landing some of the world's biggest names, including Shay Mitchell, Desi Perkins, and Kylie Jenner.

Step into Episode 216 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with Roland Wood III — a Phoenix-born, west-side-raised finance veteran who went from staff accountant to CFO across some of Arizona's most recognized restaurant concepts, including Grimaldi's and Square One. Roland pulls back the curtain on what a CFO actually does, why the best ones never win a popularity contest, and how "if the math doesn't math" sometimes the answer just has to be no.From navigating 50 Grimaldi's locations during a financial restructuring and securing $6–7M in COVID relief programs for Square One, to breaking down food cost management, inventory tech, marketing ROI, and the real value of fractional CFO services for growing hospitality groups — this conversation is packed with honest, practical perspective that operators, owners, and industry professionals rarely get to hear. Roland also unpacks why cutting quality to save margin is a long-game trap, how to use fixed pricing agreements to avoid supply volatility, and why "you will never save your way to prosperity."Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 1:50) Delo's New Book: Risky Business & Intro to Roland Wood III(1:51 - 5:06) Roland's Background, West Side Phoenix & the Restaurant Scene(5:07 - 9:28) School, ASU, Early Career & How Roland Landed in Restaurants(9:29 - 13:54) What a CFO Actually Does: Banking, Cash Flow & Hard Conversations(13:55 - 17:22) Grimaldi's: 50 Locations, Capital Structure & Food Cost Differences(17:23 - 21:38) Inventory Tech, ERP Systems, Cogswell, Craftable & Portion Decisions(21:39 - 25:09) Food Pricing Strategy, Fixed Agreements & Hedging Against Volatility(25:10 - 27:52) Marketing ROI: How Finance Holds Marketing Accountable for Traffic(27:53 - 32:28) Square One: COVID-Era Entry, Multi-Concept Finance & Barrett's Portfolio(32:29 - 34:47) Fractional CFO Services: Who It's For, Ideal Client & the Value Proposition(34:48 - 42:21) Rapid Fire + Roland's Finance Philosophy: Invest, Don't Just Cut(42:22 - 42:43) Delo's Close, Book Promo & Podcast Sponsor Mention

Bob Verlaat and Nick Nijhof are Amsterdam-based entrepreneurs and Co-Founders of Hears, the fast-growing hearing protection brand redefining earplugs through premium design and industry-leading sound clarity. Prior to Hears, the duo successfully scaled luxury sleep wellness brand Dore & Rose to $30M in revenue, building deep expertise in branding, Ecommerce, and consumer behavior. Their entrepreneurial journey has been shaped by creating products that solve real consumer problems while building emotionally resonant brands. After Bob experienced hearing damage and persistent tinnitus from loud music, the pair became increasingly aware of the global problem of noise-induced hearing loss and the lack of earplugs people actually wanted to wear. Existing products compromised sound quality, looked unattractive, and failed to fit seamlessly into modern lifestyles. Driven by that personal frustration, Bob and Nick spent 1.5 years researching and developing Hears from scratch, investing in patented filter technology and an award-winning heart-shaped design focused on preserving natural sound while protecting hearing. Since launching in 2024, Hears has generated $7M in first-year revenue, won the Red Dot Design Award, and partnered with globally recognized brands and venues including Yves Saint Laurent and Pacha Ibiza.

Most agents walk away from sellers who won't list. That's not a bad lead, that's a real estate toolbox expansion problem.If you only have one solution to offer, you're leaving commission on the table every single day. I know because I did it too. Then I built a hybrid real estate model that combined MLS listings with off-market wholesale assignments, and last year that produced $2.7M with just four salespeople. No new hires. No massive operation. The same team, a bigger toolbox.Here's what this covers:✅ Why the hybrid agent investor model works for licensed agents who already have a listing business, and how to add off-market without blowing up what's already working✅ How to train your existing listing agents to become acquisitions agents using the listing agent acquisitions agent approach, no extra headcount required✅ The three factors that tell you in the first conversation whether a seller is an MLS deal or an off-market wholesale assignment, condition, motivation, and why asking price is actually the least important of the three✅ How to present a cash offer at the listing appointment without confusing the seller or losing the listing conversation entirely✅ Why off market deals for real estate agents are sitting inside your current lead flow right now, you just need the right questions to find them✅ The script language that gives you permission to pivot between solutions in the same appointment, so you stop losing cash offer leads to investors who showed up ready to buyThis isn't complicated. You can do this with what you already have.
Ramit Sethi of I Will Teach You To Be Rich talks to Nicole and Shane, an engaged couple in their forties getting married in just 11 days. Together they earn $241,000 a year, have a net worth of $588,000, and hold $265,000 in savings, but their financial lives are still tangled. Nicole has built a rich life around travel, dining out, and intentional spending, while Shane is a natural saver whose job has covered most of his living expenses. As they prepare for marriage, a future child, and a major shift in Nicole's income, Ramit helps them confront the messy reality of combining money, separating business and personal finances, investing more aggressively, and turning vague dreams into a real shared Rich Life. In this episode we uncover: • Why Nicole's $10,000-a-month spending shocked Shane early in their relationship • How Nicole built a “Rich Life” for one through travel, dining out, and dedicated savings • Shane's unusual work setup where housing, food, and utilities have been covered • The tension of combining finances just 11 days before their wedding • Why Nicole feels judged for her lifestyle, even though her numbers are strong • Their combined income of $241,000 a year and net worth of $588,000 • Why Shane has a higher net worth despite Nicole earning slightly more • Nicole's concern that her income could drop by half after having a child • How Nicole's business and personal finances became dangerously tangled • Their surprisingly low fixed costs and unusually high savings rate • Why having $265,000 sitting in savings may actually be holding them back • Shane's habit of trying to time the market when investing • Why their projected $1.7 million retirement portfolio may not be enough for the life they want • Ramit's advice on turning their messy numbers into a shared financial vision before marriage ⏩ CHAPTERS (00:00:00) Teaser: “You spend $10,000 a month?” (00:01:02) Introduction: combining money before marriage (00:02:47) Nicole and Shane's financial snapshot (00:06:53) Nicole feels judged by her lifestyle (00:08:50) Nicole's Rich Life: travel, dining out, and $500 dresses (00:12:45) How marriage changes Shane's living situation (00:15:38) Reviewing their Conscious Spending Plan (00:19:42) Their $241,000 household income (00:24:01) Ramit explains why letting the prenup discussion go was a mistake (00:27:20) Nicole's business and personal finances are mixed together (00:35:00) The problem with saving 42% but under-investing (00:40:32) Nicole's guilt-free spending doesn't add up (00:45:26) Ramit explains the danger of tracking without understanding (00:48:53) Their retirement projection (00:50:13) Why $1.7M may not be enough (00:52:05) Reallocating savings instead of only cutting spending (01:20:12) Turning dreams into a realistic financial vision (01:47:11) Ramit's final advice: use the time before income changes wisely (01:50:00) Follow-ups and closing thoughts This episode is brought to you by: Netsuite | Get the free guide “Demystifying AI” at https://netsuite.com/ramit LMNT | Get a free LMNT Sample Pack with any order at https://drinklmnt.com/RAMITFactor | Head to https://factormeals.com/ramit50off and use code ramit50off to get 50 percent off and free daily greens per box, with new subscription only, while supplies last until 09/27/2026.

The end of 2025 left a bad taste in everyone's mouth — but the numbers tell a very different story than the vibes. Ryan digs into DVOA, EPA per play, success rate, and drop-back efficiency to show that, even through chaos and injuries, the Packers fielded one of the best offenses in football. The real disappointment? A defense that should have been elite under Jeff Hafley and dragged the whole operation down.
