Click Here to Get All Podcast Show Notes!Everyone wants to be rich, but most people don't know that the habits of the wealthy are often very different from what society expects. In this episode, Sharran breaks down the five core actions and mindsets that set the rich apart. For example, rich people understand that every decision comes with a cost, and they make those decisions with full awareness of what's at stake.They aren't concerned with impressing others. It's not about flaunting wealth; it's about building wealth through sound decisions and actions. Plus, they fix problems through behavior changes, not just apologies, and they consistently try again even after failure. Finally, rich people give the greatest gift: their full attention. Learn these simple yet powerful habits anyone can start implementing today.“Rich people understand trade-offs. The one thing rich people understand is that every choice costs something.”- Sharran SrivatsaaTimestamps:01:38 - Understanding trade-offs: Every decision comes with a cost03:12 - Stop trying to impress others: Focus on building wealth04:53 - Fix problems through behavioral changes, not apologies06:21 - Keep going: The power of trying one more time07:55 - Giving attention: How attention builds influence and wealth09:40 - Recap: What rich people do naturallyResources:- The Next Billion by Sharran Srivatsaa - https://sharransrivatsaa.substack.com/- Acquisition.com - https://www.acquisition.com/- Board Member: ARC Multifamily Real Estate Investing - https://arcmf.com/- Board Member: The Real Brokerage - https://www.joinreal.com/Connect with Sharran:- Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/likesharran- Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/sharransrivatsaa/- X - https://x.com/sharran- LinkedIn - http://www.linkedin.com/in/sharran- YouTube -

Most founders treat buying a business like a shortcut. In reality, your first acquisition is old-school marriage. It cannot end in divorce. Seth Deutsch joins me to unpack how to know if you should acquire at all, how to avoid blowing your first deal, and how to build an anti-fragile business that investors actually want.   Most founders think they have a growth problem. In reality, a lot of them have an acquisition problem waiting to happen. In this episode I sit down with Seth Deutsch, deal architect, investor, and operator who has led or advised on more than 70 acquisitions, helped build nine private-equity-backed platforms, and worked on over 2 billion dollars of enterprise growth. We talk about buy vs build, why acquisitions are like merging families, and the mindset you need before you go anywhere near your first deal. Seth breaks down culture, vision, peer-group cashless mergers, and what it means to make a business anti-fragile from an investor's point of view. We get real about customer concentration, deal structure, earnouts, and why buying a company to save a struggling one is like adding fuel to a house that is already on fire. He also opens up about complex PTSD and severe childhood abuse, how he hid it for years while building a high-performance career, and why he now speaks openly so other founders know it was not their fault and it does not have to define them. If you are thinking about buying a business, selling your own, or just want to understand how investors really see your company, this conversation will give you a real-world lens most people never share. __ ► Free resource: 90 Day ROI Playbook — Multiply Your Profits with the Skills No One Trains https://bitnw.academy/roiplaybook   __ Guest: Seth Deutsch Topic(s): Mergers and Acquisitions, private equity, owner operator, small business, investors, leadership, enterprise growth, cashless merger https://www.samsonpartnersgroup.com/   Music Licensing by Audiio License #: 0981896904 #cashlessmerger #business #privateequity

Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has successfully completed its due diligence process and is preparing to close its acquisition of Krafty Labs on January 2, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval from the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE). Gappelberg explained that Krafty Labs brings a highly attractive blue-chip customer roster that includes global technology and enterprise leaders such as Google, Microsoft, Netflix, Oracle, Yelp, ZoomInfo, Spotify, and Meta, among others. In addition to its strong customer base, Krafty Labs has generated approximately $1.2 million in year-to-date 2025 revenue, supported by robust gross margins of roughly 72%, underscoring the scalability and profitability of its platform. Management believes the acquisition will significantly enhance Nextech3D.ai's AI-first event and engagement ecosystem by adding enterprise-grade capabilities that complement its existing technology stack. The integration of Krafty Labs' advanced engagement tools with Nextech3D.ai's in-person, virtual, and hybrid event solutions is expected to expand the company's reach into higher-value enterprise and association customers. Gappelberg noted that the combined platform is positioned to drive higher average contract values, foster deeper and longer-term customer relationships, and unlock new monetization opportunities across a broad range of event formats. By strengthening its foothold in the enterprise market, Nextech3D.ai aims to accelerate revenue growth while reinforcing its position as a leading provider of AI-powered event and experience technologies. #nextech3d.al #otcqx #nexcf #cse #ntar #EvanGappelberg #ARway #AugmentedReality #SpatialMapping #IndoorNavigation #MapDynamics #EventTech #TradeShowSolutions #TechStocks #ARRevenueGrowth #3DTechnology #ProactiveInvestors #aws #amazonwebservice #tickets #kraftylab

Alex Langer, President and CEO of Sierra Madre Gold And Silver (TSXV: SM) (OTCQX: SMDRF), joins me to discuss the acquisition of the Del Toro Silver Mine in the Chalchihuites District in Mexico from First Majestic Silver Corp. for total consideration of up to US$60 million, inclusive of delayed and contingent milestone payments.  We also get a update on operations from the ongoing ramp-up and expansion of silver and gold production from the La Guitarra, Coloso, and Nazareno mines in Mexico.    Pursuant to the Transaction, Sierra Madre will acquire a 100% interest in the 2,129-hectare Del Toro Property in Zacatecas State that includes three fully-permitted underground mines, a 3,000 tonnes per day ("tpd") flotation processing circuit and numerous historic mines.   Alex outlines that in the near-term, their plan for Del Toro is to advance exploration and prepare an updated resource report while their operating team focuses on completing the two-stage expansion at La Guitarra.  The initial plan is to commence the mine restart process at Del Toro in mid-2027, with silver and base metals production currently slated for mid-2028. However, Alex mentioned that if silver prices continue on their current upward trajectory, there is a possibility of restarting Del Toro within a 12-month time period."   We reviewed that once again this transaction was completed with their largest strategic shareholder, First Majestic Silver, who is excited to see the team at Sierra Madre unlock value from these assets as they participate from an equity perspective. Alex points out that as was the case with La Guitarra, First Majestic has done an exceptional job in keeping permits current and maintaining the mine and plant in an operations-ready state.   Key transaction specifics of the Del Toro acquisition:   Upon closing of the Transaction, US$20 million in cash and US$10 million in Sierra Madre shares at the Issue Price. Within 18 months of Closing, US$10 million in cash or, at the option of the Company, Shares at a price per share equal to the market price. If, within 48 months of Closing, the Company files a National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") technical report over any or all of Del Toro that demonstrates "mineral resources" of at least 100Moz AgEq or the Company issues a news release announcing "mineral resources" of at least 100Moz AgEq, an additional US$10 million in cash or, at the option of the Company. If, within 60 months of Closing, the Company achieves commercial production at Del Toro of at least 4,000 tpd for 30 consecutive days, an additional US$10M in cash or, at the option of the Company,     Alex then unpacks how Del Toro is an excellent match for their portfolio, not just on a production basis, but with considerable exploration upside; with an already built production plant and a strategic land position in the large, under-explored Chalchihuites District.  This ties into their team's long-standing corporate business model is to acquire mines, such as La Guitarra, with existing production facilities, and then to build a resource base in under-explored, large historic mining districts.   Alex also just got back from a site visit to Mexico, so we unpacked all the activity on the ground the planned two-stage expansion at their La Guitarra processing plant located in Estado de Mexico, Mexico. Alex discussed how the ongoing purchase of additional milling and processing equipment along with rolling fleet equipment will allow for the implementation of increased production in incremental stages over the next 2 years.   In addition to throughput growth, there will also be grade-driven growth at the La Guitarra complex. This higher-grade ore which will continue be sourced from both the Coloso and Nazareno Mines to augment the material from the La Guitarra Mine, in addition to development work at La Guitarra reaching higher grade material. As production and operations continue ramping up this blended material will raise the grades and recoveries of gold and silver, as well as start lowering costs over the next few quarters. Wrapping up we discuss the preparations and early targeting work underway to engage in a significant exploration program at the East District concessions, which will include a drill program of over 25,000 meters in 2026.  The property hosts 8 different past-producing mines, with the first 2 priorities being to explore around the El Rincon and Mina de Agua mines.   There will also be more announcements about the exploration plans at the Del Toro complex and land concessions in the new year.       If you have any questions for Alex regarding Sierra Madre Gold and Silver, then please email them to me at either Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Sierra Madre Gold and Silver and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow along with the latest news from Sierra Madre Gold & Silver   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Terry Lynch, CEO of Power Metallic Mines (TSX.V: PNPN) (OTCBB: PNPNF) (Frankfurt: IVV), joins me for a comprehensive exploration update from their fully funded 100,000-meter drill program at the polymetallic NISK Project in Quebec.  We discuss recent drill results from a deep hole at the Lion Zone, pending results still at the assay lab, but also look ahead to 4 key exploration targets of interest for early 2026 drilling.   Key Highlights from the Interview:   Exploration Strategy: A six-rig program focused on expanding the mineralized around the Lion Zone and at depth in the “elephant zone,” and also at Lion West, at the Tiger Deep Zone, and new polymetallic targets from surveys at the Hydro Fold-Hinge Zone. Additionally the team is still drilling to connect the 5.5km corridor and “Gap Area” between Lion and NISK Main.  There are still about 15,000-20,000 meters of core being processed at the lab that should be back by late January, and then 65,000 additional meters that will be drilled throughout 2026. 40 Meters of 12.18% Cu (14.34% CuEqRec) included within 20.40 meters of 2.91% Cu (3.58% CuEqRec) in Hole 25-029b at Lion, and Completes the Extension of PN-24-064 “elephant hole” to define large BoreHole EM anomaly at depth.    Terry points out that the exploration team is more animated by the follow up hole here after collecting more electro-magnet information from this most recent hole. Resource Growth Path: Early-stage modeling efforts are enabling analysts and investors to build their own interpretations of scale, while metallurgical studies are underway with results set to release in early Q1 to confirm high recovery rates. Acquisition of Li-FT Power land:  Back on July 14, 2025 the Company announced that it closed a definitive agreement dated June 9, 2025 to acquire a 100% interest in 313 mineral claims totalling 167 km² from Li-FT Power Ltd. (TSXV: LIFT) (OTCQX: LIFFF). The claims adjoin the Company's 45.86km² Nisk property, where exploration is expanding the high–grade Lion Cu–PGE discovery and the Nisk Copper-Nickel-Platinum-Palladium-Gold-Cobalt deposit.   Terry explains how there are 8 very high priority drill targets that the exploration team is following up on across this newly acquired land. Phase 1 Metallurgical Testing of Lion Deposit:  On Oct. 16th, Power Metallic announced that preliminary metallurgical studies are underway being performed by SGS Canada Ltd at its laboratories based in Quebec City, QC, and Lakefield, ON. Work to date has shown that the copper mineralization is contained within coarse grained chalcopyrite and cubanite, both which should respond well to conventional sulphide concentration methods. Overall, the character of the mineralization suggests good recoveries of copper sulphides, and these initial metallurgical tests will determine the recovery potential of the PGEs, Au, Ag, and Ni., which are expected to report within a conventional sulphide concentrate.   If you have any questions for Terry regarding Power Metallic Mines, then please email them into me at Shad@kereport.com.   * In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Power Metallic Mines at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow the latest news from Power Metallic Mines   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Its combined offering now spans registration, ticketing, badging, mobile applications, 3D mapping, AI matchmaking and virtual networking - tools that enterprise customers often source from multiple vendors. Krafty Labs accelerates this shift by opening pathways into major global organizations.At the same time, Nextech3D.ai is building a unified AI Event Operating System designed to integrate blockchain ticketing, event tokens, AR navigation and automated workflows into a single, intelligent framework to create a massive differentiator in a market rapidly moving toward automation and personalization.The company's 2026 go-to-market strategy focuses on three growth engines: cross-selling Nextech3D.ai's broader platform into Krafty's enterprise accounts, converting more than 100 double-qualified inbound leads each month and scaling a newly expanded sales organization. The company is targeting $20–30 million in SaaS revenue over the next three years, reflecting the strength of its product suite and the maturing enterprise pipeline.Gappelberg summarizes the inflection point clearly:“With 1,000 customers in our ecosystem and AI at the center of our platform, the scale of this opportunity is unlike anything we've had before.”Through Krafty Labs, Nextech3D.ai inherits relationships with global brands including Google, Meta, Netflix, Oracle, Spotify and Dropbox. These are active Krafty Labs customers with established event budgets, enhancing Nextech3D.ai's ability to introduce its full AI suite across multiple business units. Discussions underway in Dubai and the United States further broaden the company's expansion pathway.The acquisition also strengthens competitive positioning in a market long dominated by legacy incumbents such as Cvent. Nextech3D.ai's customizable AI-driven solutions and full-stack approach are increasingly aligned with what enterprise buyers are seeking.

The most dangerous part isn't the misinformation itself–it's how believable it looks.In this cautionary episode, Sharran exposes how social media algorithms manipulate what you believe, especially about money. He reveals that most viral financial content isn't built to help you–it's built to profit from your clicks. Backed by shocking data from FINRA, Sharran explains why over 70% of online finance posts fail basic compliance standards and how influencers earn more from your attention than your success.He dives into the psychology of algorithmic incentives, showing how platforms reward confidence over accuracy and how that distorts the truth. You'll also learn three simple rules to spot fake gurus and protect yourself from misleading advice online. Stop making decisions based on what you see or hear from social media-verify the information from more reliable sources.“Whoever is shouting loudest–the biggest, loudest advice–about money is often giving the worst advice about money.”- Sharran SrivatsaaTimestamps:02:04 - What FINRA discovered about viral finance posts02:44 - Why algorithms push bad financial advice04:31 - The “algorithm economics problem” explained06:22 - The hidden business model behind finance influencers09:09 - What good financial content should include10:35 - The three rules to protect yourself from bad advice12:43 - Why you should always verify with “boring sources”Resources:- The Next Billion by Sharran Srivatsaa - https://sharransrivatsaa.substack.com/- Acquisition.com - https://www.acquisition.com/- Board Member: ARC Multifamily Real Estate Investing - https://arcmf.com/- Board Member: The Real Brokerage - https://www.joinreal.com/Connect with Sharran:- Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/likesharran- Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/sharransrivatsaa/- X - https://x.com/sharran- LinkedIn - http://www.linkedin.com/in/sharran-

This week, special guest Rich Jordan takes us inside a marketing challenge presented by his successful acquisition of home services businesses. Do you keep the legacy names of those businesses to preserve local trust—at the cost of running a fragmented, inefficient marketing operation? Do you take the strongest brand you own and roll it out everywhere, even if it may not translate from one community to the next? Or do you wipe the slate clean and create an entirely new brand to unify the whole operation—knowing that it means walking away from money you've already sunk into branding your biggest location? In a conversation with Shawn Busse and Jay Goltz, Rich walks through how he wrestled with those choices, why he ultimately made the call he did, and what he learned along the way. His takeaways included that there are still people who listen to radio, that an authentic story can compete with private equity, and that it is possible to find a marketing agency that will align its interests with yours.

This is the full conversation I had with Will Smith and Niklas James on the Acquiring Minds podcast in April of 2025. We broke down how I bought Somewhere.com, how I run my real estate private equity firm, and how I leverage offshore talent to scale revenue while saving costs. We discussed how I think about building teams, why sales is the foundation of all businesses, and why buying a company isn't a shortcut, it's a challenge most people aren't ready for.If you're thinking about buying a business, this episode will show you the side of acquisitions people rarely talk about.

This week, the gang kicks things off with LinkedIn's shiny new 100-million-strong verification army, because nothing says “I'm a real human” like flashing a blue badge that apparently gets you 60% more profile views and 50% more love on posts (fake LinkedIn influencers are sweating bullets right now). Then the trio dissects Findem's mysterious acquisition, wondering if it's a path to riches for job boards or a one-way ticket to obselescence for the agent phenomenon. Walmart sneaks in as the dark-horse employment hero, proving even the retail behemoth can out-innovate and outsmart the market while competitors are still trying to get their own employee engagement strategies from hallucinating. Additional fireworks come when Chad, J.T. and Joel tackle AI-generated content—specifically OpenAI's Sora. Joel wonders if we're about to drown in perfectly polished, soulless videos, JT argues creators can finally clone themselves (hello, 48-hour workdays!), and Chad just wants to know who's actually going to pay for all this sci-fi wizardry instead of, you know, real revenue. And, naturally, it wouldn't be Chad and Cheese without Chad recounting his house-selling saga like it's a Greek tragedy and Joel dropping holiday nostalgia bombs that somehow make like worth living again.

PREVIEW — Andrea Stricker — Nuclear Safeguards Framework for Saudi Arabia's Reactor Acquisition. Strickeroutlines essential precautions and international safeguard mechanisms necessary to prevent nuclear proliferation resulting from Saudi Arabia's acquisition of advanced nuclear power plant technology and fuel cycle capabilities. Strickerrecommends permanent International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) safeguard protocols and comprehensive additional verification arrangements covering all present and future Saudi nuclear facilities, ensuring Riyadh cannot unilaterally eject IAEA inspectors or rescind international safeguard commitments if the Kingdom subsequently pursues uranium enrichment or nuclear fuel reprocessing activities for weapons development. Stricker emphasizes that binding safeguard protocols are essential to preventing Saudi acquisition of weapons-grade nuclear material and maintaining nonproliferation regime integrity in the Middle East.
