You need to invest... it just means owning a piece of the world." - Chris CamilloChris Camillo grew up in a neighborhood where million-dollar homes were the norm and investing wasn't a choice—it was just what wealthy families did. But as an adult, he realized something that haunted him: he was making incredible money off the very technological advances that were leaving other people behind, simply because no one had ever taught them what his privileged upbringing made obvious. Now he's on a mission to change that, and his approach will shatter every excuse you've ever made about not having enough money to start investing.What makes Chris's perspective so refreshing is his brutal honesty about the AI revolution that's coming for all of us. Instead of fearing the "industry of intelligence" that could devalue human labor, he shows you exactly how to profit from it—starting with as little as $5. His philosophy isn't about living below your means or making dramatic sacrifices; it's about finding tiny pockets of money you're already wasting and turning those forgotten dollars into your future wealth. This conversation will completely rewire how you think about money, technology, and your place in an increasingly automated world.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter
Contractor Success Map with Randal DeHart | Contractor Bookkeeping And Accounting Services
This Podcast Is Episode 634, And It's About Financial Red Flags Your Construction Company Can't Afford To Ignore As a construction bookkeeper, I've had a unique vantage point, watching countless projects unfold from the first bid to the final payment. While the hammers and blueprints are the visible signs of progress, it's the numbers behind the scenes that truly tell the story of a company's health. And let me tell you, those numbers often whisper warnings before they start screaming. Small business owners in the construction industry are incredibly busy. You're juggling bids, managing crews, dealing with permits, and ensuring client satisfaction. It's easy for subtle financial warning signs – what I call "red flags" – to get overlooked until they become critical problems. However, ignoring these signals can lead to severe cash flow issues, stalled growth, and even business failure. Based on what I've observed, here are five common financial red flags that you absolutely cannot afford to ignore, along with practical steps you can take to address them. Red Flag #1: Constant Cash Flow Crises Despite "Profitable" Projects This is the most puzzling red flag for many owners. You look at your profit and loss statement, and it shows a healthy profit. Yet, your bank account is always running on fumes. You're constantly chasing payments, delaying supplier invoices, or juggling funds to make payroll. Why it's a problem: Profit is a theoretical measure of what you've earned over a period; cash flow is the actual money moving in and out of your business. In construction, where you often incur significant costs upfront (materials, labor for the first phase) and payments come in installments (often with retainage held back), it's entirely possible to be profitable on paper but cash-poor in reality. This constant stress impacts your ability to take on new projects, negotiate better deals, and even pay your team on time, leading to low morale. How to fix it: Implement Robust Progress Billing: Don't wait until a project is 50% or 100% complete. Structure your contracts to allow for regular progress payments tied to specific milestones (e.g., foundation poured, framing complete, rough-ins finished). This ensures a steady stream of cash. Aggressive Accounts Receivable (A/R) Management: Send invoices promptly as soon as milestones are met. Have a polite but firm follow-up process for overdue invoices. Don't be afraid to make phone calls. Negotiate Favorable Payment Terms with Suppliers and Subcontractors: While you want to pay your bills on time, try to secure longer payment terms (e.g., Net 30 or Net 45) from your vendors whenever possible. This helps you collect from your clients before your payments are due. Manage Retainage Proactively: Thoroughly understand the retainage clauses in your contract. Track how much retainage is outstanding for each project and aggressively pursue its release as soon as the contractual conditions are met. This money is yours; get it! Build a Cash Reserve: Even a small percentage of profit set aside each month into a dedicated savings account can create a vital buffer for lean times. Aim for 3-6 months of operating expenses. Red Flag #2: Consistently Inaccurate Project Estimates (Leading to Underbidding) Do you frequently find projects ending up significantly over budget, eating into your expected profit margins, or even becoming a loss? Do you often need to inform clients about additional costs? This points directly to issues with your initial estimating process. Why it's a problem: Inaccurate estimates mean you're consistently underbidding, leaving money on the table, or worse, taking on jobs that will inevitably lose you money. This directly impacts your profitability and, by extension, your cash flow, as you're funding the gap with either the cash from other projects or your capital. It also damages client trust when costs unexpectedly balloon. How to fix it: Implement Detailed Job Costing: This is a non-negotiable requirement. For every project, meticulously track all expenses, including labor hours (with specific tasks), material quantities and costs, subcontractor invoices, equipment rentals, permit fees, and miscellaneous expenses. Learn from Past Projects: Conduct a post-mortem analysis after each project. Compare your actual costs to your estimated costs. Where were the discrepancies? Was it materials? Labor hours? Unexpected site conditions? Use these insights to refine your estimating formulas. Categorize and Standardize: Develop a comprehensive system of cost codes for materials, labor types, and activities to ensure accurate and consistent tracking of costs. This consistency makes it easier to track and compare data across projects. Build in Contingency: Always include a contingency fund (typically 5-15% of the total project cost) in your estimates for unforeseen issues, changes in material prices, or minor scope creep. Use Estimating Software: Even simple estimating software can help streamline the process, ensure all line items are considered, and integrate with your accounting system. Red Flag #3: Uncontrolled Material Waste & Loss Are materials constantly going missing or getting damaged on site, or are you consistently buying more than what was initially estimated? This is a direct drain on your project's profitability and your company's cash. Why it's a problem: Every piece of wasted or lost material is money directly out of your pocket. It means you're paying more than you bid, leading to cost overruns. It can also cause project delays while you wait for replacements. How to fix it: Implement Strict Inventory Control: Secure Storage. Designate secure, organized storage areas on job sites for materials when not in use or overnight. Material Tracking System: For larger projects, consider a simple log or spreadsheet to track materials received and used. Regular Site Cleanliness: A clean, organized job site naturally leads to less waste and makes it easier to spot missing items. Careful Material Handling: Train your crew on proper handling and storage techniques for various materials to minimize damage and ensure optimal safety. Accurate Take-offs: Ensure your initial material take-offs (the process of determining the quantities of materials needed) are precise to avoid over-ordering or multiple trips to the supplier. Return Unused Materials: Establish a process for returning unused, undamaged materials to suppliers for credit, where possible. Red Flag #4: Inefficient Labor Utilization & Unaccounted Time Labor is often the most significant cost for a construction company. Suppose your crews are standing around, waiting for materials, traveling excessively between job sites without proper tracking, or simply not as productive as they could be. In that case, your labor costs are likely to be increasing significantly. Why it's a problem: Every idle hour or misspent minute costs you money. Inefficient labor directly reduces your profit margins and can cause projects to fall behind schedule, leading to client dissatisfaction and potential penalty clauses. Unaccounted time can also lead to compliance issues with wage and hour laws. How to fix it: Accurate Time Tracking: Implement a robust system for tracking employee time. This could include mobile apps with GPS features, biometric time clocks, or even detailed paper timesheets, as long as they are managed in a meticulous manner. Ensure all hours (including travel, breaks, and specific tasks) are accurately recorded. Optimize Scheduling & Workflow: Plan daily tasks meticulously. Ensure materials, equipment, and instructions are ready before the crew arrives. Minimize downtime from waiting or searching for tools. Cross-Training: Train your crew members on various tasks. This provides flexibility and prevents delays if one skilled worker is absent or busy elsewhere. Daily Huddles/Toolbox Talks: Begin each day with a brief meeting to review tasks, identify potential roadblocks, and ensure everyone is aware of their role. Regular Performance Reviews: Identify bottlenecks or areas where productivity can be improved. Provide training or reassign tasks as needed. Red Flag #5: Lack of Financial Visibility & Untimely Reporting Are your financial reports always weeks or months behind? Do you rely on gut feeling more than actual numbers to make business decisions? Do you only look at your bank balance at the end of the month? This means you're flying blind. Why it's a problem: Without up-to-date and accurate financial information, you cannot make informed decisions. You won't spot cash flow issues, cost overruns, or unprofitable projects until it's too late. This lack of visibility prevents strategic planning and proactive problem-solving. How to fix it: Invest in Good Accounting Software: QuickBooks Desktop or Online, Foundation Software, or other industry-specific solutions are essential. They automate data entry, generate reports, and track job costs. Maintain Clean Books Consistently: Don't let your bookkeeping pile up. Enter invoices, payments, and expenses regularly, ideally on a daily or weekly basis. This provides a real-time picture. Review Key Reports Regularly: Cash Flow Statement - Review it weekly or bi-weekly to track where your money is going and coming from. Job Costing Reports: Review weekly to compare actual costs against your budget for each project. Accounts Receivable Aging Report: Review weekly to see who owes you money and for how long. Work Closely with Your Bookkeeper: A good construction bookkeeper isn't just a data entry specialist; they are your financial partner. They can provide valuable insights, flag potential issues, and help you understand your numbers, enabling you to make informed, profitable decisions. Identifying and addressing these financial red flags isn't about adding more burdens to your plate; it's about building a stronger, more resilient construction business. By taking proactive steps and staying on top of your numbers, you can turn those red flags into green lights for growth and lasting profitability. Don't let hidden financial issues undermine your hard work on the job site – empower yourself with clarity and control.

Everybody wants to live an intentional, meaningful, satisfying life. We want God's best. Is this it though? Does your life feel smaller than you thought it'd be? Why is that? Isn't Jesus supposed to make everything better? Didn't He say He came to bring us life to the full? Full of what?? My life is full of stress, insecurity, and failure. Why can't we seem to step into the dreams God put inside us? Influencers keep telling us, “Just go for it.” But you can't. You're stuck. What would it look like to overcome your excuses and take a step forward? Is it possible that the most spiritual thing you can do is let God KICK YOUR BUT.

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour
The Torah mentions the Misva of Tefillin eight times , and Rambam rules that one who regularly neglects this Misva violates all eight mentions. This makes Tefillin one of the most serious daily obligations. A natural question arises: What if a person cannot afford Tefillin? Is he required to beg or sell his belongings to fulfill the Misva? Is There a Financial Obligation to Purchase Tefillin at All Costs? Surprisingly, Halacha does not require a person to beg, knock on doors, or sell his clothing in order to buy Tefillin. This contrasts sharply with other Misvot: For Shabbat candles , Halacha states one should sell the shirt off his back. For the four cups of wine on Pesa ḥ , one must do the same. Why, then, is Tefillin different? The A ḥ aronim address this inconsistency. Some suggest the distinction lies in the preparation of the Misva versus its fulfillment . When it comes to creating or purchasing Tefillin, one is not required to go to extreme measures . But when it comes to fulfilling the Misva—actually wearing Tefillin—a person must make great efforts , even if not to the level of begging or selling his shirt. Borrowing Tefillin When One Cannot Buy Them Although one is not obligated to beg or sell belongings, Halacha still expects a person to do everything reasonably possible to fulfill the Misva, including: Borrowing Tefillin from a friend Asking family or community members to help buy him a pair However, borrowing Tefillin is not always a simple solution : Proper fit matters , especially for the head Tefillin (Shel Rosh). If the fit is incorrect, one may not fulfill the Misva properly . Right-handed and left-handed Tefillin are different . Borrowed Tefillin might be unusable if the sides don't match. The knots often require adjustment , and people are either unable or too lazy to adjust and then return them properly. This can result in a misplacement or a Beracha Levatala (a blessing in vain). Due to these complications, many rabbis—especially the Mishnah Berura , Ḥ acham Ovadia Yosef , and Rav Moshe Feinstein —strongly encourage even poor individuals to ask for help or borrow properly rather than excuse themselves from the Misva. The Bait Ḥ adash further warns against those who habitually rely on borrowed Tefillin. He criticizes those who wouldn't borrow a toothbrush or shoes , yet treat Tefillin as communal property. This attitude reflects a lack of personal responsibility for one of the Torah's most central obligations. Summary Tefillin is a daily Misva of great seriousness , mentioned eight times in the Torah. One is not required to beg or sell basic clothing to fulfill it—but should do everything else possible . This includes borrowing Tefillin or asking others to help purchase a pair. Long-term reliance on borrowed Tefillin is discouraged due to concerns of improper fit, invalid usage, and lack of commitment. Each Jew should ultimately own his own Tefillin and treat them as essential—just as he would his clothing or daily necessities.
A pervasive argument is that for reasons personal, political or economic, Putin simply cannot afford to end his war: that he needs the excuse for tyranny, or that his economy would stagnate. I dig into these and other claims, and - spoiler alert - conclude that Putin could certainly afford to end the war... but that there are enough challenges to peace that he may not dare to.The podcast's corporate partner and sponsor is Conducttr, which provides software for innovative and immersive crisis exercises in hybrid warfare, counter-terrorism, civil affairs and similar situations.You can also follow my blog, In Moscow's Shadows, and become one of the podcast's supporting Patrons and gain question-asking rights and access to exclusive extra materials including the (almost-) weekly Govorit Moskva news briefing right here.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is W. Terry Whalin, author of the book 10 Publishing Myths. W. Terry Whalin understands both sides of the editorial desk--as an editor and a writer. He worked as a magazine editor and his magazine work has appeared in more than 50 publications. A former literary agent, Terry is an Acquisitions Editor at Morgan James Publishing. He has written more than 60 books through traditional publishers in a wide range of topics from children's books to biographies to co-authored books. Several of Terry's books have sold over 100,000 copies. Terry's most recent book is BOOK PROPOSALS THAT SELL (THE REVISED EDITION) which has over 150 Five-Star reviews. He has also written 10 PUBLISHING MYTHS, INSIGHTS EVERY AUTHOR NEEDS TO SUCCEED and BILLY GRAHAM, A BIOGRAPHY OF AMERICA'S GREATEST EVANGELIST (all from Morgan James Publishing). Also, Terry has an innovative online training course to help authors effectively connect with literary agents and editors called Write a Book Proposal. Terry is a popular speaker and teacher at numerous writers' conferences and an active member of the American Society of Journalists and Authors. He lives in Southern California and has an active following on twitter. In my book review, I stated 10 Publishing Myths by W. Terry Whalin is a great craft book helping authors understand what publishing a book entails - and what it doesn't. Many writers get started on the path to authorship without a real understanding of what comes after the book is written. Terry's book gives authors a realistic look at what to expect. I loved that the book gave real-life examples, actionable tips, and even links for more information. It's a quick read but stuffed with great information - whether you are published or not. This book should be on every author's bookshelf.

Lord George Robertson, former Nato Secretary General and lead author of the UK's new Strategic Defence Review, talks to Roland about what it will take for Britain to be warfighting ready. His message is a vital clarion call for the British government and general public to wake up to the very real threat posed by Russia and the scale of change that needs to be undertaken: "This is not business as usual."But with President Donald Trump's call for spending 5% of GDP on defence likely to be adopted by Nato later this month, is a commitment of 2.5% and an ambition of 3% by 2034 enough? And are ordinary British people ready for the sacrifices involved in creating a credible deterrence to protect the UK?https://linktr.ee/BattleLinesContact us with feedback or ideas:battlelines@telegraph.co.uk @venetiarainey@RolandOliphant Hosted on Acast.
