Prompt the First: The Authoritarian Fourth Turning I've asserted multiple times that the Fourth Turning isn't when autocracy happens: It's the 2nd. And here in the United States, we're about to see if that's really the case. But why do I think that in the first place? https://harpers.org/archive/1941/08/who-goes-nazi/ — From August 1941 "Nazism has nothing to do with race and nationality. It appeals to a certain type of mind." "It is also, to an immense extent, the disease of a generation—the generation which was either young or unborn at the end of the last war. This is as true of Englishmen, Frenchmen, and Americans as of Germans. It is the disease of the so-called 'lost generation.'" Prompt the Second: A Transaction Cost Economics Assessment of the Civil War How the response to the Los Angeles January 2025 wildfires has me thinking https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Los_Angeles - where I got those L.A. counts The entire population in 1790 was just short of 4 million, 700K slaves - 17.8% https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1790_United_States_census The slave population in 1860 (3.95M) was just about equal to the entire population in 1790 (3.92M) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1860_United_States_census (Although the percentage had dropped, a bit: From 17.8 to 12.7 in 1860)) In any case, the Confederacy was larger than the Colonies - twice as large considering whites alone California had been a state for 11 years in 1860, and it was already 379K - the 26th largest state out of 33, well ahead of New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island and Delaware. Sacramento was the 68th largest city…with 13K people. Prompt the Third: Cassandra A fake fortuneteller can be tolerated. But an authentic soothsayer should be shot on sight. Cassandra did not get half the kicking around she deserved. Lazurus Long, a character created by Robert A. Heinlein https://www.baen.com/chapters/W200408/The_Notebooks_of_Lazarus_Long.htm

Aujourd'hui c'est le 666ème épisode du NFT Morning et c'est surtout l'occasion de célébrer le 3ème anniversaire de notre podcast...En effet, c'est le 8 mars 2021 que nous avons enregistré en direct notre 1er épisode sur Clubhouse.C'était le 8 mars 2021, et quelques jours plus tard Beeple allait chambouler le monde de l'art avec la vente chez Christie's de son oeuvre "Everydays: The first 5000 days".Ce 1er épisode lui était d'ailleurs consacré (que vous pouvez écouter ici )C'était le 8 mars 2021, l'Ethereum valait environ 1500€ (il en vaut plus de 3500 au moment où j'écris ces lignes...), le floor (le prix le plus bas) des Cryptopunks était déjà à 25000$, il n'y avait pas encore de Bored Apes, pas de Fidenza, etc.Nous sentions que quelque chose était en train de se produire, et que cela aurait un impact considérable non seulement sur nos vies, mais aussi sur le monde de l'art, et même sur notre rapport à la propriété et à notre vie digitale...Et ça a été une déferlante que très peu auraient pu envisager : en 2021, le volume de vente total des NFT a augmenté de + de 20 000%, passant de 95M de dollars en 2020 à 25 Mds en 2021Mais la chute a été tout aussi spectaculaire : les scandales se sont multipliées, les cours se sont effondrés... Mais nous avons continué à y croire, en se donnant pour mission d'être là chaque matin malgré ce monde qui s'effondrait autour de nous...Combien d'épisodes avons-nous consacrés au Bear Market crypto ? À nous demander si les NFT étaient morts ? des dizaines… comme par exemple cet épisode d'avril 2023 avec nos fidèles amis Arke et Konohime.Et au final, toujours le même constat : non, ce n'est pas mort, c'est une situation normale, il y a des projets qui continuent à se lancer, des artistes qui créent des œuvres de plus en plus innovantes, et nous, nous nous faisions un point d'honneur à être là pour les recevoir.Nous avons tenu le coup pendant 3 ans parce que nous y croyions, et que la communauté qui s'est rassemblée autour du NFT Morning ne cessait de nous porter…Certains ont laché l'affaire en cours de route, comment pourrait t-on leur en vouloir quand on sait à quel point ce space peut être violent; d'autres à l'inverse nous ont rejoint, et puis il y a les irréductibles, ceux qui sont là depuis toujours et qu'on ne remerciera jamais assez…Aujourd'hui, la situation sur les marchés cryptos nous conforte dans l'idée que nous avons eu raison d'y croire: le Bitcoin et l'Ethereum viennent d'ailleurs de dépasser leurs plus hauts historiques...Mais au-delà des chiffres et de la spéculation, ce qui nous a toujours passionnés ces 3 dernières années, c'est l'innovation: voir le potentiel de cette technologie inédite se déployer sous nos yeux. Ce qui nous a aussi motivés à nous lever chaque matin, c'est la philosophie issue de la crypto-culture, et peut-être plus que tout, c'est le crypto-art que nous avons célébré dans le livre "NFT Revolution", et surtout nos discussions avec tous ces artistes qui, sans s'en rendre compte, sont en train d'écrire un nouveau chapitre de l'histoire de l'art...Mais la vraie raison qui nous a donné l'énergie de continuer le NFT Morning depuis 665 épisodes c'est la certitude que chaque matin à 9h précise nous vous retrouvions, vous qu'on appelle affectueusement “la famille du NFT Morning” et même nous n'avons peut-être jamais eu la chance de vous rencontrer, on a l'impression de si bien vous connaître...En quelques chiffres le NFT Morning au bout de 3 ans c'est donc:666 épisodes soit plus de 600h cumulées, des centaines de projets reçus, plus de 1.200.000 de téléchargements au totaldes centaines de litre de café,+ de 3000 abonnés à la newsletter11459 followers sur Twitterdes centaines de bugs en cours de spacesdes intervenants mensuels: Ingrid, Jen, Camille, Annelise et Jessy, Simon, Vinny, Eve, Pauline, Mattis, Jérémy, Léo, MonsieuRabbit etc…des milliers de fou rires…1 aventure au quotidien2 amis d'enfanceset des d'autres milliers amis qui les ont rejoint…M.E.R.C.I. à vous tous et Good Mor-niiing !PS: si vous ne l'avez pas encore eu dépêchez vous de récupérer le POAP des 3 ans sur https://mint.poap.studio/claim/1bvs6k This is a public episode.

“At the core of it George, at some point we all just want better results for human beings … you want to take care of humankind and our mushroom farm partners see us as a vehicle to really help because they believe in the benefits of Psilocybin based mushrooms” Todd Shapiro, CEO - Red Light Holland In an era where mental health has become a global priority, Red Light Holland Corp. (TRIP/TRUFF) stands at the forefront of a significant market evolution. Specializing in premium psilocybin products, the company is not just a business entity but a beacon of hope for those battling trauma, PTSD, depression, and anxiety. Their recent financial accomplishments and strategic partnerships paint a picture of a company not just surviving, but thriving in a competitive landscape. MARKET IMPACT AND VISION The company's approach to mental wellness through psilocybin products has resonated deeply within the industry. With a projected market increase from $5B to $12B by 2029, Red Light Holland is not just participating in the market, it's actively shaping it. Their vision extends beyond profit, aiming to revolutionize therapy and offer tangible solutions to pervasive mental health challenges. ANTICIPATED ANNUAL REVENUE RUN RATE OF $16 - $17 MILLION Red Light Holland is a vertically integrated producer of functional mushrooms and mushroom home grow kits in North America and Europe, and a premium brand of psilocybin truffles to the legal, recreational market within the Netherlands, in compliance with all applicable laws. More than just lip service in a world of pretender companies looking to capitalize on the paradigm shift in psychedelics, Red Light Holland is delivering actual financial results and giving guidance for the market to expect a whole lot more. $3.95M in revenue, representing growth of 70% over 2022. $1.7M in gross profit, representing growth of 176% over 2022. $16M - $17M anticipated annual revenue run rate. STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIPS AND TIER-1 RETAIL DISTRIBUTION Red Light Holland's expansion into the Netherlands, Canada, and the USA exemplifies their global vision. The company has established full vertical integration in the Netherlands, offering products like iMicrodose and Maka. Their North American breakthrough, introducing psilocybin truffles to Canada and expanding their product line, showcases their adaptability and foresight. Partnerships with the industry leaders in the production, packaging and sales of mushrooms in Canada, with combined annual production north of 13 million pounds per year and decades of experience, has and will add significant additional revenues, while serving as a potential future production site for naturally occurring psilocybin, if and when regulations permit. Distribution through major retailers like Canadian Tire, Loblaws, Longos and Amazon confirms the company's commercial acumen. THE PARALLEL MISSION TO GROW AND HELP MILLIONS TO MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE At the halfway mark of our interview, CEO Todd Shapiro becomes visibly moved when discussing the Company's ability to help and change the path of millions, if not tens of millions of people if Red Light Holland executes as planned. The following quote says it all. “I'm going to get emotional. The idea that we have a horse in the race and that we are leading the pack in the small cap space … we have a chance … and we're going to die trying … to make a difference in the world that we've never seen before” FUTURE OUTLOOK "The market for psilocybin products is not just growing; it's evolving, and we are at the heart of this transformation" This quote encapsulates the company's optimism and readiness to navigate the parabolic psychedelic sector. With strategic planning and a focus on mental wellness, Red Light Holland is poised to not just ride the wave of market growth, but to steer it in new and innovative directions.

After leading several successful sales organizations in the telecommunications and software space for almost a decade, John began investing in companies predominantly in the eCommerce arena. A college friend was launching BattlBox in early 2015 and John knew he had to be involved, so he invested in it, offering advice in a limited capacity. BattlBox started to see exponential growth and the demand for John's time increased. In early 2016, John made the decision to step away from his then sales leadership role with a software company to join the BattlBox team in a full-time capacity. In July 2019, The BattlBox Group acquired Carnivore Club, an artisanal meat subscription box. In October of 2021, BattlBox and Carnivore Club were acquired by Emerge Brands for $18.95M. John currently serves as Chief Executive Officer for The BattlBox Group.

Businesses across the country are already cutting costs amid the looming recession. From hiring freezes to trimming headcount, difficult decisions are already being made. As customers and clients try to cancel and tighten contracts, Kraig Swensrud shares the hardest questions he's getting in the sales and renewals conversations right now, and how to handle them. Kraig has led two companies through acquisition and is now the CEO of Qualified, which just raise $95M for their Series C. Even with an average 4,000% ROI across customers, Kraig is still having to navigate customers trying to cut costs.

Producers/Hosts: Jim Campbell and Amy Browne This series is made possible in part by a grant from the Maine Arts Commission Welcome to this edition of Maine: The Way Life Could Be, a series in which we look at challenges and opportunities facing Maine in the lifetimes of people alive today. Affordable housing is a big issue here in Maine, with current residents being priced out of certain areas by people moving here from out of state, purchase prices beyond the reach of average wage earners in all but one county, rents skyrocketing, and short term vacation rentals displacing long term rentals. Today we again hear from area town managers and planners that we interviewed earlier this year, a young person dealing with the issue, and a local real estate agent who fills us in on the trends. With inflation and interest rates complicating things, it’s hard to predict what things will look like in a few years, much less beyond that. Guests: Lane Sturtevant, Participant in January MTWLCB forum Kathleen Billings, Town Manager, Stonington, Maine Mike Cunning, Realtor, Worth Real Estate, Belfast, Maine Jim Fisher, Town Manager, Deer Isle, Maine, and former senior planner with the Hancock County Planning Commission Anne Krieg, Bangor Planning Officer FMI: Trends and Outlooks for the Maine Economy, Maine Association of Mortgage Professionals (presentation), by Amanda Rector, Maine State Economist, June 8, 2022 2021 Homeownership Housing Facts and Affordability Index for Maine, Maine State Housing Authority LD 290, An Act to Stabilize Property Taxes for Individuals 65 Years of Age or Older Who Own a Homestead for at Least 10 Years Airbnb bookings in rural Maine surge to $95M in 2021, Lori Valigra, Bangor Daily News, June 29, 2022 Portland isn't the only place out-of-staters are buying pricey homes, David Marino Jr., Bangor Daily News, June 23, 2022 About the hosts: Jim Campbell has a longstanding interest in the intersection of digital technology, law, and public policy and how they affect our daily lives in our increasingly digital world. He has banged around non-commercial radio for decades and, in the little known facts department (that should probably stay that way), he was one of the readers voicing Richard Nixon's words when NPR broadcast the entire transcript of the Watergate tapes. Like several other current WERU volunteers, he was at the station's sign-on party on May 1, 1988 and has been a volunteer ever since doing an early stint as a Morning Maine host, and later producing WERU program series including Northern Lights, Conversations on Science and Society, Sound Portrait of the Artist, Selections from the Camden Conference, others that will probably come to him after this is is posted, and, of course, Notes from the Electronic Cottage. Amy Browne started out at WERU as a volunteer news & public affairs producer in 2000, co-hosting/co-producing RadioActive with Meredith DeFrancesco. She joined the team of Voices producers a few years later, and has been WERU's News & Public Affairs Manager since January, 2006. In addition to RadioActive, Voices, Maine Currents and Maine: The Way Life Could Be, Amy also produced and hosted the WERU News Report for several years. She has produced segments for national programs including Free Speech Radio News, This Way Out, Making Contact, Workers Independent News, Pacifica PeaceWatch, and Live Wire News, and has contributed to Democracy Now and the WBAI News Report. She is the recipient of the 2014 Excellence in Environmental Journalism Award from the Sierra Club of Maine, and Maine Association of Broadcasters awards for her work in 2017 and 2021.

Rivian (RIVN) stock price is up over 7% in the post-market session. The Rivian earnings report indicated -$1.77 in Earnings Per Share and $95M in revenue, missing the estimates. What are the Rivian truck and the Rivian R1T production numbers? "Rivian will need to have about 6,700 cars a quarter to be able to hit their target, which is why the RIVN stock price is spiking now," says Kevin Green. "I don't think that the Rivian stock price matters. Production numbers are important," adds George Tsilis.

*) Zelenskyy urges UNSC to fix accountability Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has told the 15-member United Nations Security Council that "accountability must be inevitable" for Russia. During an address, he accused Moscow's troops of committing what he described as "the most terrible war crimes" since World War Two. Zelenskyy questioned the value of the Security Council, which has been unable to take any action over Russia's attacks because Moscow has a veto power. Zelenskyy also showed footage of dead bodies — including children — he said were victims of Russian atrocities. Russia's ambassador rejected the claims. *) US, allies prepare new Russia sanctions The United States, in coordination with the EU and Group of 7 nations, will roll out new sanctions against Russia in response to alleged atrocities.

I'm gay.” Michael Mclean's son had come out to him. “Dad, I've tried to do everything you said. I went on my mission. I was an Eagle Scout. And I don't know how to get through it.” Michael felt his son's pain and wanted to support him. So, he turned to God in prayer. Michael had received answers before. He knew they would come, but he felt nothing. It was the first time in his life the heavens felt shut. His prayers couldn't get past the ceiling. Michael begged God to talk to him. It was challenging the first weeks and months, but as two years passed, Michael questioned, “What if I got it wrong? Is there really a God who hears my prayers?” He asked himself, “Can I keep the promises I've made when my heart feels nothing?” Michael got on his knees and prayed, as he had countless times before. While Michael prayed, he said, “I don't know if You're hearing this, but I'm going to quit whining and moaning. I'm going to trust You. I'm going to trust that, at some point, You'll communicate with me, and I won't feel so lost.” Michael didn't give up hope, but he stopped trying to make himself feel something. Michael writes songs for a living. After nine years in his faith crisis, he had an extraordinary experience. One day he went into his study. It was as if songs were being downloaded to his mind. He wrote for 10 days and completed 12 songs. Michael's answers came in those songs. He felt that God had answered him in a way only he could understand. They came directly from God's heart to his. Michael was overwhelmed by His grace. Have you ever had a crisis of faith? What do you do when you feel like God isn't speaking to you?

As usual, the Hot Rod Blues podcast is a study in grown men with ADHD as the conversations turn on the shortest notice. The boys get started with an update on Shawn's ‘50 Merc. Javi gets a late start with a Red Bull. Mike wears a three-piece suit and ponders why metal fabricators don't get the media hype? Is Jim Morrison alive or dead, and what happened to his GT500? The Hirohata Merc goes for $1.95M at auction. They ponder the origin of Memphis slang words. And the big news is that the Hot Rod Power Tour and Drag Week will both be hitting Memphis this year. The Hot Rod Blues Podcast, based in Memphis, Tennessee, “The “Home of the Blues,” is an entertaining group of hot rod enthusiasts from very different upbringings who are brought together by their love of cars. Even though the podcast is tied to cars, there is nothing off-limits when these four get together. The conversations often run the gamut like a 10-year-old with ADHD but it is always fun. The Hot Rod Blue Podcast is co-hosted by Shawn Brereton of Auto Enthusiast Network, Mike Abbott of Steel Rose Metal Co, Javier Augustine of Bomber Steel Customs, and Shawn Young of Kingfish Metal Works.

The New Orleans Saints and Taysom Hill have agreed to a contract extension keeping the dynamic playmaker in New Orleans for the next four season. The contract amount will be dependent upon what position he plays moving forward.Taysom Hill's 4-year $40M deal could escalate to as high as $95M if he becomes the Saints' starting quarterback in 2022 and beyond. Hill will also see $22.5M of guaranteed money in either iteration. The New Orleans Saints, Mickey Loomis, and cap guru Khai Hartley have put together another innovative way to maintain a top weapon.The Saints are not new to cap gymnastics and creative approaches to new contracts.

What is the best way to advocate yourself? It's been a long time passion of mine to support talented and skillful people who are often overlooked, and small giants who haven't quite got the recognition they deserve. Today, I unpack potential answers to questions like: "What if what I have is not good enough?" "What if they don't like it?" "I don't want to be THAT guy!" "How do I deal with imposter syndrome?" "Why do I feel guilty whenever I'm not working?" "I hate putting myself out there all the time." "What if I'm out there, and my friends and family see it?" "How can I avoid the dreaded question, “How's work?” or “How's business?” The list goes on. But what if there are better ways to advocate yourself? What if you STILL get to achieve the level of success you're looking for, earn handsomely, AND get to do whatever meaningful thing you've always wanted to do? Today, we'll be discussing: J.K.

Judd Armstrong is a passionate entrepreneur with a visionary innovative approach to business. In 2006, Judd spearheaded the wireless revolution when he founded and bootstrapped JayBird, becoming the third top premium headphone brand in the US alongside Beats and Bose, a great story of customer insight, innovation and word-of-mouth. Judd sold Jaybird to Logitech for $95M in 2016. After selling JayBird, Judd took a few years off to farm a small piece of independence and self-sufficiency at his new farm in Australia. In the meantime, he developed a lifestyle-friendly method of trading Bitcoin, with just 12 trades per year on average, which grows money by 100X over a few years. He has now made this method available for the first time with his Unlisted app which is uniquely designed from the ground up to cater to the needs of first-timers, with performance that delights any experienced trader. If financial independence is what you desire, this is for you. Judd has dedicated much of his time to studying the power of positive thought and how the subconscious controls so much of our relationship with happiness, health, and wealth. Out of that knowledge, he developed a companion app, Jump, which is designed to help you reprogram your brain with positive thoughts. = = = = = The Team here at PYP has put together another uplifting, insightful, and inspiring show for you today.

In this episode of CHATTINN CYBER, Marc Schein interviews Kilian Koepsell, CTO and Co-Founder of Caption Health. As Caption Health CTO and Co-Founder Kilian Koepsell leads the company’s efforts to use the latest in artificial intelligence and deep learning to bring the diagnostic power of ultrasound to more healthcare providers, democratizing access to healthcare and improving patient outcomes. Prior to co-founding Caption Health, he worked on developing computer vision algorithms matched to the human visual processing system at the Redwood Neuroscience Institute and UC Berkeley — research he brought to Caption Health’s ultrasound guidance software. He also co-founded White Matter Technologies and was a founding team member at IQ Engines, which was acquired by Yahoo! for its Flickr group. He holds a PhD in physics from the University of Hamburg, as well as two master's degrees in mathematics and physics from the same university. Kilian was born and grew up in a family of physicians, in Germany, where he developed a keen interest in health care. Along with health care, he was also fascinated with computers and Artificial Intelligence (AI) since his childhood. Although Kilian was passionate about AI and health care, he studied mathematics and physics. Soon he realized that these two courses were based on theoretical knowledge, however he wanted to study something that he could apply to create an impact on the lives of other people. Then he decided to switch his field and pursue his childhood passion. He came to the United States and studied Neuroscience and Artificial Intelligence at UC Berkeley. After completing his research at UC Berkeley he started his career in the field of medical imaging. Access to quality diagnostic imaging leads to more timely and accurate diagnoses and treatment for patients, but the skills needed to perform an ultrasound exam take years of specialized training to master. Caption Health is bridging this gap through a simple but powerful concept: what if we could use technology to emulate the expertise of highly trained medical experts and put that ability into the hands of every care provider? Caption Health’s breakthrough technology, Caption AI, empowers healthcare providers with new capabilities to acquire and interpret ultrasound exams by emulating the expertise of a sonographer. The AI software provides real-time probe guidance, automatically captures diagnostic-quality images, and automatically calculates ejection fraction (the most widely used measurement to assess cardiac function). It is the world’s first and only FDA cleared AI-guided ultrasound system. Kilian talks about the significance of Caption AI for treating Covid-19 patients. He says that many Covid-19 patients are dying due to cardiac complications because the Covid-19 virus is attacking their hearts along with the lungs. As the Covid-19 virus is attacking the heart, it is very important to keep a regular check on the performance of the patient’s heart. But due to the isolation protocol, it becomes very difficult for the experts to do an ultrasound examination of the patient’s heart by personally visiting him/her. In this scenario, Caption AI provides an easy and quick solution by enabling any health care provider to easily get echo images and evaluate heart performance. The company hopes to democratize healthcare by expanding clinicians’ ability to perform ultrasound at the point of care in order to improve patient outcomes and reduce costs. In 2020, they received three major FDA clearances, including an expedited clearance to support frontline healthcare workers in the fight against COVID-19; closed $53 million in Series B funding; announced their first commercial partnership with Northwestern Medicine; and received a $4.95M grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to support the development of innovative AI technology for lung ultrasound.

Interview with Gorden Glenn, President and CEO of Intercontinental Gold and Metals (TSX-V: ICAU)Intercontinental Gold and Metals is a gold trading business with an operation in Bolivia. Intercontinental Gold and Metals tried to give investors exposure to the exciting upside of gold/precious metals investment, with none of the risk associated with the typical exploration, development and operation in the mining sector. It seems to us this is a fairly smartly positioned play, albeit at a very early stage. Glenn is right in saying that capital for high-risk ventures, like explorational drilling, has become sparser in recent years. This reminds us of some of the royalties, tailings and recycling companies we have interviewed. Mining is mining, but what if investors could access most of the returns of this field with less risk?Intercontinental Gold and Metals is a relatively small play, with a market cap of CA$5.95M and a share price of CA$0.33.Glenn himself has extensive economic geology experience at "medium-sized" companies, in addition to vast gold market experience. The remainder of the team has a similar level of experience, with the company director, John Anderson, having over 20 years of capital markets and experience on national and international exchanges such as the TSX, NYSE, NASDAQ, London AIM and Swiss Stock Exchange.How exactly does a trading business work? Intercontinental Gold and Metals procure and stock various commodities in a variety of forms (and grades) to provide the resource to customer specifications. Intercontinental Gold and Metals can also source stock via its global supply network. Key to the business model is Intercontinental Gold and Metals' relationship with high-quality suppliers, advisors and contacts throughout the world. Intercontinental Gold and Metals services both individuals and businesses, providing a wide range of commodities. The company currently has a gold bullion refining capacity of over 5 tonnes per annum. Intercontinental Gold and Metals takes around a 1% gross margin on trades. Glenn claims this is the industry standard.How exactly will Intercontinental Gold and Metals scale up to boost the share price for investors? Glenn thinks the "show me, grow me" money given to Intercontinental Gold and Metals by investors proves interest, and thinks the positive financial results of the company will incentivise more investment, more growth and more mining companies coming to his door rather than the other way around. Glenn then touches on the size of the Bolivian/Latin American export market. Glenn sees the company's good legal standing and ability to get deals done as reasons to invest.Company page: https://intercontinentalgold.com/Make smarter investment decisions, subscribe here: https://www.cruxinvestor.comFor FREE unbiased investment information, follow us on Twitter, LinkedIn and Facebook:https://twitter.com/cruxinvestorhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/crux-investor/https://www.facebook.com/cruxinvestorTake advantage, hear it here first: https://www.youtube.com/CRUXinvestor

Spirit of 608: Fashion, Entrepreneurship, Sustainability + Tech
When underdogs not only win, but become game changers in a space that's long (long) overdue for a new normal, I not only rejoice -- I bring conversations back to the Spirit of 608 podcast. In this week's #s0608 recycle, we hear from a founder who's company is creating seismic shifts in apparel by changing how clothing in sizes 14 and up looks in women's lives and in their closets. When we first spoke with this founder, she was on her way to proving that plus size fashion made not only logical, rational sense, but also whip-smart business sense. With a reported $95M in venture funding to date and the recent release of her brand's collaboration with iconic designer Betsey Johnson, she's showing that big name labels are ready to offer clothing in sizes that represent the real range of the U.S. population -- and not simply the minority whose bodies align with an industry's outdated, psychologically damaging and discriminatory marketing tactics. Listen in for a conversation that will inspire you to keep going in pursuit of what you believe in. Meet this week's guest, Nadia Boujarwah, CEO of Dia & Co.

The economic indicators of recession are starting to trickle in. We are seeing ballooning inventories in multiple sectors of the economy. When times are good, suppliers increase production to meet the rising demand. But as always, they get a little ahead of themselves. The auto industry sold 17.3 million vehicles last year. Frankly, some of that consumption was the result of major storm damage from settling insurance claims from late 2017 and from 2018, as opposed to true economic demand for new cars. Demand peaked 3 years ago at 17.55 million cars and trucks. Today, inventories on dealers’ lots total 3.95M vehicles. That’s nearly 11 weeks of inventory. The industry considers 30 days of inventory to be healthy. However, if you consider that the current forecast for 2019 is for less than 17M cars to be sold in the US. If we see a drop in demand, then we’re really sitting on close to three months of inventory. General Motors already announced the closure of 5 plants across North America and Ford is also reporting a 27% drop in operating income for 2018. Part of the driver for new vehicles last year was a change in tax rules that permit businesses to expense the entire vehicle in the fiscal year compared with the previous requirement to depreciate the capital expense over several years. The stimulus resulting from the rule change is unlikely to repeat in 2019 to the same degree. Other sectors of the economy are also showing signs of slowdown. As we’ve previously reported, the residential housing sector is seeing inventories increase in several markets. Inventories are up 116% in Seattle Washington, up 131% in San Jose California. Britain is in a full blown contraction, but that’s driven by the Brexit uncertainty. The cloud of what will happen looks like it will take considerably more time to resolve. Prime Minister May has survived a non-confidence vote and has indicated that she will renegotiate the terms of Brexit with the European union after the original deal was resoundingly defeated in the British parliament. The EU has said they’re not willing to renegotiate. The calls for a second referendum is getting increasingly louder. Italy reported economic numbers for the 4th quarter. They reported the second full quarter of economic contraction putting them technically into recession territory. France showed contraction in Q4, and December retail sales in Europe overall had their largest one month drop since 2011.

Stories from my SFH portfolio...One of my longest tenants went AWOL. :(“They did send in a partial payment of $965 that we received on Monday.. They now owe for January and $385 past due. for a total of $1,263 I am not sure why they are being so uncooperative for the inspection”A couple weeks later…“She has been in the hospital again. I gave her our direct number and she said she will call. She is also supposed to bring the late part and will bringing last months rent in about a week and half. She apologized for the trouble of getting her, but she was not able to return calls.”I like to work through and with my property management.They alerted me of the issue.“Seems like valid reason for being late. Maybe we can ask for hospital invoice or doctor note just for record keeping. We might submit to the potential seller to explain the gap in the rent rolls. That way we can verify it too. “Rats! The dishwasher stopped working in this home. It looks like it needs a new sprayer arm and wire harness for $285.89. But the bigger picture is there are rodents in the home that chewed the wires. See pictures. We will need the approval to repair the dishwasher but first, we will also need to get a quote for rodent removal. The quotes for rodent removal are free so I will send someone out to see how extensive the rodent issue is. I will keep you updated and we will go from there.Our tech went to this property and reported the following:dishwasher model# gz8945pg35 wire harness was chewed by rodents also spray arm has burn spots estimate for repair $285.89Sign up for the Hui Deal Pipeline Club to get access to a Sears pricing list to see how my you are getting screwed for by your property management.Our tech made a temporary fix to wires so dishwasher is working now. We also recommend to do something about rodents otherwise they may cause more issue....But hey just got my AHP and private lending not monthly payment JMold in one of my propertiesBuying a drone-For the past few years I have been amazed the amazing drone shots. J Martin posted some shots in Changmai, Thailand and I started to ask him which one he used. Basically there are two of them that everyone gets one that is mobile and in 1080p (300) the other which is larger and in 4K (1000). I’ve been adding videos to our YouTube channel and think that the 4K is where the future is. I’m making the leap to get the 1000 dollar version. I also am going to consider it a business purchase so I can get a nice entrepreneur discount too. Sometimes I think in amazement how crazy that would be to buy such a toy for a miser like myself. But then I figure I would take cool shots for our investor club when I do due diligence. How cool would it be to take shot of drilling rigs for exploratory drilling? Yup we are going there. A couple of years ago when we were working our first project in Iowa which we ultimately dropped we did some video and it really brought the project to life. As a side note, I had shinny object syndrome kick in and thought I would be able to make videos for other companies. Imagine I could go to a CrossFit and record their outdoor workout or go to a wedding (and get free food). Then I thought that I could get a dime a dozen (commodity employee) or Millennial good with computers to do the tedious editing for me. But then I stopped myself. But the whole mental exercise brought insight about what I want to ultimately hit my Simple Passive Cashflow number when you work on things for joy and engagement. What better to help people share awesome visuals and be around people on their special day like a wedding or birthday party. So I heard Uncle Buck Joffrey started intermittent fasting a few months ago and lost 40 lbs. I started doing IF when I started renting out my first home in 2010. I can remember reading the ebook “eat stop eat”. Ralph Waldo Emerson"The first wealth is health."I needed to step my game up so I decided to find a personal trainer. So stay tuned for that. After spending 60k in 2016 and 30k in 2017 on training and mentorship I truly see the value of it. Of course, as you know I am someone who takes action. I can also say being on the other end mentoring you guys in my paid coaching program that it’s neat seeing the barriers broken. Honestly, I don’t feel like I do much but the results are amazing. As an ex crossfit coach myself, if you would asked me if paying someone 90 dollars to count my reps and pass me the weights... I would have thought you were crazy. But now I get it!Wanted to share a trend that I have been seeing in the past 6 months in MFH (idk how it manifests in sfh?)The class c assets are getting beat down by cap rate compression (delta between cap rate and interest rates) and therefore a lot of the experienced investors are getting into class b because the per cost unit is getting pretty much the same. This is moving away from the normal business plan for turning class c to b. The thought is... heck might as well go for the 1980s build instead of 1960-1970s stuff for the same price. Having a newer asset might also be a little more conservative way to go with this stage in the market cycles because in a correction A will move to B... And B will move to C and the lower class D/C in the tertiary areas will see most of the vacancy or rent concessions.Hurricanes:I got to pondering looking back when New Orleans was hit by Hurricane Katrina there were short-term disruptions to gas prices especially since Houston is a major think tank for the metro industry. I expect Federal money which might have been focused on (helicopter money) be spent on infrastructure spending or tax cuts NOW be redirected to damage recovery.. Which will manifest as tax breaks, loan subsidies, or other incentives offered to entice investment capital to flow into affected markets.Definitely an opportunity in the short term to go in there and develop to take advantage of the fiscally earmarked casually funds.As a long-term buy hold investor what I am keying in on is what the big institutional players (like insurance companies) will do. I suspect they will actually have to pony up and pay claims in Houston and Florida which will divert funding away from their Plan A: financing new class A multi-family apartments in other markets. This results in less new developments coming online which is great for Class B and C mfh investors who have been struggling with the recent cap rate compression.Other random thoughts:Low / no equity homeowners will walk from their properties and focus on rebuilding their lives as renters for the next 2 years. These foreclosures will certainly impact values in numerous communities throughout Houston. 2. Many insurance companies will re-think the coastal markets and their policy premiums for same. This, along with the inevitable increase in flood insurance premiums will also impact buying power for future homeowners. 3. Landlords will be in demanding higher rents as there will be a shortage of housing for the next year or while properties are rebuilt. 4. Long-term impact can only be speculated on since this was an epic storm that caused billions in damage to homes, autos and businesses but those purchasing SFR's better buy very, very low or they could be the next distressed sellers.Changes in MFH Underwriting and getting dealsI've had some hurdles here. It seems the standards in submitting LOI's have been changing the past 9 months. What changes have you been seeing from the front line?1/ Business conditions are dictating POF with the LOI. Based on the latest sophisticated investors are underwriting deals with 80/20 terms, 1% interest only and 1.25 DSCR.It's becoming more common for brokers to review the buyers' underwriting before accepting an LOI to present to the sellers. The brokers view these terms as aggressive and are reluctant to submit my LOI. It matters who your lender because it comes down to team and a portion of it is your lender. Large deals have been falling out of escrow due to over-aggressive underwriting that cannot find financing. Las Vegas lenders are underwriting at 65/35 LTV, 1.3 DSCR. You can change your underwriting to match Las Vegas standards, giving brokers more comfort, and therefore remain on the 'A' list or do nothing.A lot of time you will needs POF with the LOI. Use an angel… anyone who is an 'Angel' on the LOI, will be given the option to KP and co-sponsor ( if qualified ) the deal if the LOI is accepted. The average $/unit for a C-class, value-add, stabilized asset in a C to B- area is $55-85K. The POF for a 200 unit property at the top end is $5.95M. 2/ Post close liquidity equal to 10% of the loan.3/ Proof of net worth equal to the value of the property.4/ Hard money; the standard is becoming 1% of the purchase price (I haven't submitted an LOI with hard money yet; .5% hard money and see if that places me in best and final). Question: I heard you say in the podcast that you have a team in Atlanta. How did you go about building a team there? Is there a podcast episode on that?I think it's no secret that as the sellers market matures, turnkey properties not in war-zones are becoming endangered species. When I began picking these things up in 2013 you could get inside the loop highway (under an hour commute to the city center) and get a 1980-1990s product. Now you are looking outside of the loop highway and in 1940-1960 properties. The good turnkey providers are frankly making more money selling to retail buyers than us cheapo investors who has got a million questions. The stuff I see coming out on most lists are properties that you would not want to buy. Unless you have someone boots on the group (who is not trying to sell you) and is agnostic to the transaction, you are going in blind to a loaded minefield. I am beginning to leverage my contacts and finding investor focused real estate agents who know what to look for in a rental property. This effectively cuts out the middleman in the transaction but it requires you to know what you are doing in the first place (two to four transactions or a mentor) so you can coach your agent and arrange for contractors. You find one person who is good you find the others because good people associate with good people. I feel like the SimplePassiveCashflow Facebook group has reached a tipping point where everything you need from a peer investor network is here. You just have to go about it the right way. One wrong way I see it done and I see it done in other groups and BiggerPockets is being an "ask-hole". Asking a one off question and not contributing to the community is a sure way to get crickets and a one off answer. But you miss the point, which is to build a relationship. Put your perspective goggles on and think... how can I add value to someone or others? What do they need?So my call to action is if you want to team up with me and help me source properties and teams let me know. The rest please stand by for PML deals and others on the Hui Deal Pipeline club.We need to stick together and work collectively. As a Hui. I know what happens when you read a few websites and podcasts and go it Rambo style because I did it myself when I first got started. You will get eaten by the sharks and you won't know what got taken from you. You leave so much money on the table that you don't realize a couple years down the road.I don't want to discourage anyone from not buying because at the end of the day even with the prices as they are it's still better than the equity markets. I currently believe that there is a 50% chance we will see a recession in the next three years so keep investing just as long as the numbers make sense. If you don't know the numbers or think you know get someone to help.Where do you think the crossover point is?I am talked to over a couple hundred people over the past year and for those people SAVING less than 30K per year after their day job should invest in rentals or turnkey rentals in a market like kansas city, memphis, atlanta, birmingham, not seattle, san francisco, california... The short term goal is to gain landlord/acquisition knowledge and build a cashflow base of a couple thousand every month. But once you achieve that you should step up to larger passive partnerships/syndications because the return to pain in the butt ratio is greater. People who call/email/write on forums fail to see this two phase journey. People hear the benefits of MFH and come up with the ridiculous 1000 unit goal when they have not even see if they are borrowing material on their first buy and hold. Eventually, a lot of people quite a fizzle out while starting out on the MFH road when they should have done sfh and this insight.As much as I advocate for "simple" I am really an advocate for the minimal effective dose to maximize returns with minimal effort.So I'm trying to learn how to evaluate syndications as a passive investor. I was looking to a deal that was presented to me near your last one and I ran a quick analysis. What do you think?CONS:- 1990s build A class than B/C Class @ 120k per door and value-add reposition is from B/C to A, risky at this market cycle in event of a recession and rent contraction (Usually we are buying at 45-65K a door with a stabilized building that have over 90% occupancy)- Loan is 80.25% LTV -> too high? - (This is not really a factor - you want to be borrowing as much as you can and this is why you are going with such syndication to buy in bulk with others and get better terms. When looking at the loan you need to look at the term such as loan length, if it is recourse or non-recourse, and pre-payment terms)- Loan is 36 months -> dangerous in this cycle (5 years and less is dangerous, just closed on a property in OKC for 10 year 4.22% 3 year interest only)PROS:- Sponsors experienced - how did you verify this? (Talking to investors who were in past deals. Relying on my network to discuss reputation and character. Note: This is not going to be completed by emails or phone calls.)- Investor waterfall favourable - (Waterfalls create complexity and typically they mean less returns for the passives. Generally, the best terms for investors is a simple 80/20 or 70/30 split. Waterfalls raise a red flag for me. I have seen people balk from a high sponsor fee but that is just one thing, if it’s a deal then the sponsor should be able to take what they want. A deal is something that is underwritten very conservatively - see below)Based on my limited and growing knowledge, I wouldn't invest in this deal if I had the funds. What do you think?(You are scratching the surface of these: A true analysis of the deal requires you to have income and loss statements and rent rolls going back 12 months and possibly 36 months. This is where analysis totally differs from SFH or units under a dozen. Another part is to analyze the rental comps because 90% of the projections are based on the proforma rents per square footage. A lot of smoke and mirrors can be used by leads and brokers to inflate this number. Comps need to be verified and it is really a touchy feely thing. It cannot be a feeling on hey this 1985 property looks like this 1987 property on the westside of the train tracks looks like I can get $1.12/Rent per SF. Warning...I have see a lot of garbage underwriting play with annual rent increases 2.5%+ a year, expenses increase less than inflation - under 2% annual increases, and total rent increases of over 18% - this is something Patrickherbig.com has really opened my eyes too. Past performance is not an indicator of success and 2012-2016 anyone could have made money if you were in the right place.)I saw the last deal you did was at a 70/30 as opposed to 80/20, which is what I understand to be the generally accepted industry standard for syndications. How do you think about evaluating deals with respect to the profit split, both from the investor and the sponsor perspective? I’m trying to understand the situations where a “below market” upside would be acceptable and how the sponsors decide what structure to use - is it just based on supply/demand and the reputation of the deal sponsors (ie the sponsors/GPs will make the deal as favorable to them vs the LPs as possible while still being able to attract investors)? I see a lot of yahoos doing 70/30 splits with silly assumptions like 1% expenses increases and expectations of over 20% bump in rents. I also see a lot of 80/20 and 90/10 deals that are run by folks with long and short track records. Beware of a person with a nice suit. I think I need to personally show up better because of people never the less associate a shinny pdf deck and cool bio page as reliability or perceived value. I would not really look at the GP/LP splits. The way I see it if it’s a great deal then we as LPs should have a large room for error and heck yea the GP should be taking a large cut. But things get muddled by the assumptions the GP is using and quite frankly unless you have analyzed 100-200 large MFH properties and put in a few LOIs I don’t think you will be able to see where the red flags are. There is a YouTube video “Bear and basketball awareness test” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ahg6qcgoay4 where you get fixated on this split stuff and forget the fundamentals of the deal.Thoughts on mobile home parks/ self-storage?I recognize as both still being in the real estate category as a good way to diversify away from Real Estate in a heated market. I admit I don’t know much about the two, especially self-storage. From what I have gathered from other investors the Cashflow in Mobile homes is a little higher but there is not as explosive upside as apartments. This upside is really never captured in a conservative proforma anyway. Mobile home parks are a not being made and in times of correction, they are going to be in very high demand.I have been looking at some mobile home parks and talking to a bunch of you if you are more interested in either a single asset higher risk/reward mobile home park or a more diversified play of multiple parks in one.
