Welcome to another episode of Financial Flossing, where we unravel the intricacies of dental practice transitions. Today's guest is Todd Blackmar, a transition consultant at Bridgeway Practice Transitions. Join us as we delve into dental practice transitions and gain insights that could shape your journey. . Ross Brannon candidly engages Todd Blackmar in this enlightening episode about dental practice transitions.

Bridgeway Practice Transitions assists dentists in selling their private practices, paving the way for them to embark on their next chapter of life while offering new dentists a ready patient base. Key Takeaways: ✅ Understanding Dental Practice Transitions: Transitions in the dental world refer to the sale of a dental practice. Bridgeway Practice Transitions facilitates these transitions, ensuring retiring dentists exit with a nest egg while providing a head start to newcomers. ✅ The Bridgeway Approach: Bridgeway focuses on higher volume, lower-priced transactions, emphasizing that every retiring dentist deserves a smooth transition. Their mission is to treat every retiring dentist respectfully and ensure they leave with financial security. ✅ Pricing and Real Estate: Dental practices sold through Bridgeway range in price from $150,000 to several million dollars, with the added value of real estate in some cases. Including real estate makes it easier for banks to provide loans, boosting the overall value of the practice. ✅ Agreements and Transition Period: Bridgeway's agreements are simple and customized to fit individual circumstances. They aim to keep the process straightforward and efficient. The typical transition period lasts 60 to 90 days, similar to buying a house, but can vary depending on the parties involved. ✅ Patient and Staff Retention: The retention of patients and staff during a dental practice transition largely depends on how the buyer handles the process. Proper handling typically results in a high patient retention rate, while staff retention hinges on effective communication and treatment during the transition.

‘Agreements' and 'consequences' can feel like big scary words, but they are not the same things and ‘rules' and ‘punishments.' In fact, when you put these frameworks into practice, they can actually make you feel so much more security and relief. We discuss why it's important, especially in non-monogamous relationships, to have clear agreements, and to have clear next steps for what happens when those agreements are broken. We walk through some example scenarios and discuss the benefits of proactive problem solving as opposed to leaving these important decisions to be made in the moment. We also talk about needs, wants, boundaries, and ultimatums, and how having nuanced, regulated, intentional conversations about these subjects can create parameters for creative connection while maintaining ease and safety.

Biden met with President Xi Jinping of China for the first time in a year. And though expectations were low, our China correspondent tells us some important agreements emerged from the meeting.
Our special guest is David Sherwyn, Professor of Law at Cornell University's School of Hotel Administration. In Sept. 2023, a group of consumer advocate organizations filed a Petition for Rulemaking with the CFPB that would prohibit the use of pre-dispute arbitration clauses in consumer contracts in favor of arbitration clauses that would permit consumers to choose between arbitration and litigation only after a dispute has arisen. In response, the CFPB indicated it is carefully considering the petition, and will be opening a public docket and taking comment from the public on the petition. We first discuss the results of Prof. Sherwyn's study which concluded, in the context of employment disputes, that while superficially appealing, post-dispute arbitration fails in reality and hurts both businesses and individuals, and explain why these study results are applicable in the context of consumer finance. We then offer compelling reasons why the CFPB should not engage in such a rulemaking, including why the petition is a clear attempt to make an end-run around the CFPB's prior arbitration rulemaking that would have prohibited class action waivers in consumer arbitration agreements and was overridden by Congress and why the petition is premature. We conclude by responding to arguments made by opponents of pre-dispute arbitration agreements that consumers are uninformed about arbitration and are “forced” to enter into such agreements. Alan Kaplinsky, Senior Counsel in Ballard Spahr's Consumer Financial Services Group, leads the discussion, joined by Mark Levin, Senior Counsel in the Group.

Straight back from a Covid-induced hiatus, Keith explains that fickle-ish women on dating apps aren't willing to wait out his illness for a chance to meet him. Except one, who may or may not have prepared him a steaming bowl of soup, which he may or may not have accepted. Speaking more globally, why is it that women are messaged that they shouldn't care about the things in men that they likely do care about: intelligence, ambition, ability. Instead, romantic notions seem to suggest that some random guy out there might be a "soul mate". Let's say you've made an agreement with your partner to accept pegging, and in return, your "fetish" of analizing her will be realized. She pegs you, and then she reneges. How upset should you be about this state of affairs? And, is it fair for her to peg you with an instrument that's exactly the same size as yours, or should it be a bit bigger given her likely smaller stature. We get a lot of our questions from Reddit, so for our listeners' enjoyment, here are links to some of the questions we discussed this week: https://ymmv.me/142/anal https://ymmv.me/142/awful https://ymmv.me/142/masturbating https://ymmv.me/142/awful Twitter: @ymmvpod Facebook: ymmvpod Email: ymmvpod@gmail.com

Hello! Welcome to another episode of "Intuition: Your Success Compass"! In this episode, we´ll delve into the intriguing realm of soul contracts. We're on a journey to discover the power of these contracts, what they mean for us, and how they evolve over time. The human experience is not just about the shiny moments; it's about embracing the whole process. We're here to learn, grow, and find our way through life's ups and downs. Have you ever wondered if one person can learn and complete a soul contract without the other party involved? We explore this question, unpacking the dynamics of soul contracts and whether they can be changed, severed, or released. But here's an important distinction: soul contracts are not about finding soulmates. In fact, it's emphasized that searching for a soulmate can lead to problems, as these contracts are designed for learning and growth through contrast. To release a soul contract, you must arrive at neutrality. This process involves forgiving yourself, letting go, and wishing the other party well genuinely. It's a journey of self-healing and understanding. The episode underscores the significance of personal choice and free will in navigating soul contracts. We all have the power to change and evolve these agreements, setting our lives on the path we desire. So, whether you're looking to release an old contract, renegotiate one, or simply understand your soul's journey better, this episode is a guide to harnessing your intuition, evolving, and finding your success compass. Thank you for being a part of this soul group, for helping us expand, and for sharing in the journey of personal and collective growth. Remember, your success is unique to you, and it's waiting to be discovered. Stay tuned for more exciting episodes, and feel free to connect with us on various platforms. Your insights, questions, and experiences enrich the conversation. ---
In today's episode, I'm keeping it real, like your business bestie. Remember, no matter how you're leveling up or juggling your business, don't overlook contracts. Whether you're dealing with new clients, hiring, or partnering up, contracts are your safety net when lawyers step in. Taking contracts lightly can lead to messy situations, what I call "untied knots." From day one, make sure to dot those I's and cross those T's in your business. And when things get rocky and lawyers enter the picture, trust your instincts – they're usually spot on! 0:02:22 - What happened 0:03:25 - Advice 0:05:23 - Agreements are important 0:07:01 - Make sure of things 0:07:53 - Summary FREE Speed Networking Event: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/the-ultimate-speed-networking-event-for-online-business-owners-nov-2023-tickets-717229632137?aff=oddtdtcreator Let's stay connected through these links: Email us your questions: info@sandscreative.ca Our website: http://www.sandscreative.ca Podcast Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/sickandsuccessful_ Our business Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/s.and.s.creative Natalie's personal Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/for.the.success

Compliance Clarified – a podcast by Thomson Reuters Regulatory Intelligence
Whistleblower cases have re-emerged in a growing share of enforcement actions brought by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). SEC Chair Gary Gensler and Enforcement Director Gurbir Grewal have emphasized the need to protect individuals who report misconduct. Last week, Grewal said, "The SEC's whistleblower program is a critical part of our enforcement efforts. Each year we receive thousands of whistleblower tips, and throughout the history of the program, those tips have resulted in billions in monetary recovery."In this episode of Compliance Clarified, Todd Ehret, senior regulatory intelligence expert for Thomson Reuters Regulatory Intelligence, is joined by Richard Satran, senior correspondent for Thomson Reuters Regulatory Intelligence, where they discuss the current round of whistleblower enforcement actions from the SEC.Since the implementation of the SEC's whistleblower program under Section 922 (http://go-ri.tr.com/iEXjLU) of the Dodd-Frank Act in 2011, the SEC has awarded more than $1 billion to whistleblowers who have submitted tips regarding securities violations that have resulted in numerous enforcement actions.Securities Exchange Act Rule 21F-17(a) (http://go-ri.tr.com/N6wOnr) states, "No person may take any action to impede an individual from communicating directly with the Commission staff about a possible securities law violation, including enforcing, or threatening to enforce, a confidentiality agreement with respect to such communications."The SEC Office of Examinations (http://go-ri.tr.com/Q8XtDG), in a 2016 alert, warned that, at minimum, in any examinations, it will review for whistleblower rule violations in compliance manuals, codes of ethics, employment agreements, and severance agreements.Many of the enforcement actions involve the language used in separation and non-disclosure agreements. In a 2016 enforcement action involving Anheuser-Busch InBev, the company allegedly included very broad non-disclosure language in its separation agreements, asking employees to "keep in strict secrecy and confidence any and all unique, confidential and/or proprietary information" belonging to the company. Even though this agreement did not prohibit whistleblower communications with the SEC expressly, the lack of a carve-out citing whistleblower protections was still enough for the SEC to flag it as a Rule 21F-17(a) violation.The Compliance Clarified podcast series covers a wide range of topics that affect compliance officers at financial institutions and aims to help them navigate the often-challenging regulatory environment. It considers the significant challenges of the day and offers practical ideas for emerging best practices.The podcast is available on Google, Apple, and Spotify.Additional Resources:Loophole in FCA whistle-blowing rules leaves regulator "disconnected," says lawmaker: http://go-ri.tr.com/2OkJvjSEC targets separation and severance agreements that impede whistleblowers: https://regintel-content.thomsonreuters.com/document/IB012302073DE11EEB0FFC2B000B13E50For more information about Thomson Reuters Regulatory Intelligence head to: https://regintel-content.thomsonreuters.com/ Compliance Clarified is a podcast from Thomson Reuters Regulatory Intelligence.Listen to wide-ranging, insightful discussions on all things compliance for financial services firms.

The LCIL and Cambridge International Law Journal (CILJ) are pleased to invite you to the LCIL-CILJ Annual Lecture Lecture summary: Recent pathbreaking trade agreements empower trade policymakers to target foreign companies in novel ways and to police corporate due diligence in global supply chains rather than seek to change foreign government behavior as used to be their purview. This repurposing of our trade enforcement system has the power to transform dramatically the global commercial system, the bargains it manages, the procedures applicable to it, and the rights and obligations of all involved. This research project maps the institutional ascent of this revealed practice, which it maintains was the product of disillusionment with the intellectual pedigrees of conventional trade law. The project evaluates our trade policing in light of the progressive aims policymakers have set for it, taking into account the many constituencies on whom the burdens fall unevenly. This excavation exposes how our trade police do not operate like other widely accepted forms of law enforcement or of international law bureaucracy. Tactics like those in the new arsenal bear close resemblance to the practices of authoritarian governments that seek to provoke acquiescence without process. The project’s assessment prescribes lessons for the several disciplines trade policing touches, including for the way scholars and lawmakers conceive of what bodies of law, tools, and actors are best suited to manage transnational corporate behavior and for concepts of compliance in international law. Finally, this project demonstrates that, as a corporate accountability system, trade policing has leapfrogged efforts by fields with similar aims like business and human rights, and the policing tools we have so far are just the tip of the iceberg.

Employment Lawyers Talk Off The Clock brought its signature webcast to live seminar audiences. In this episode, hosts and employment attorneys Rebecca Strauss and Sarah Willey will provide a legal update on whether non-competes are enforceable, and will then look to the future and discuss a world without non-compete agreements. What are other ways to protect your organization's important talent, customers, and information?
Restrictions on non-competes have dominated the headlines this year. The Federal Trade Commission has proposed a rule banning non-compete agreements nationwide, Minnesota became the first state to ban non-competes since the 1890s, and the General Counsel of the National Labor Relations Board instructed regional offices to evaluate non-competes for potential violations of the National Labor Relations Act.

Weibust sat down with guests Gina Sarracino, Chief Counsel of Employment and Labor at Thomson Reuters, and Evan Michael, Executive Vice President and General Counsel at NFP, to discuss the hectic state of non-competes in 2023.

You can't just assume you'll be receiving X% on every transaction. Though this seems like a whole new stress-inducing worry for many of you, the fact is that commissions have never been a set amount, just an expectation or a tradition in many markets. Builders don't all pay the same buyer-side commissions, in fact, some don't pay ANY buyer-side commission. For Sale By Owners are the same. It's time to get better at proving your worth on the buyer side, because soon you may have to ask your buyers to pay all or some of your fee. This brings us to your burning question: How do you provide overwhelming VALUE to your buyer clients? How can you become more comfortable asking for an exclusive buyer agreement and along with it an expectation to be paid for your hard work? Top 5 Ways to Provide Overwhelming Value to Buyer Clients Fact: If you're not doing anything for them that they can't do on their own, why would they hire you in the first place, much less pay your fee? Goal: Provide such overwhelming value that you're all they're talking about to their friends! Repeat, referral, lather, rinse and repeat. REAL ESTATE LEADS, LEADS and more LEADS: Question: What is Tim and Julie Harris's favorite PROBATE LEAD PROVIDER? Simple, https://alltheleads.com/harris 1. PRESENT to your buyer clients in the same professional manner that you do a listing client. Use our Buyer Presentation where you outline exactly what the buying process is, what your role is, what the buyer's role is and how you'll be working together to accomplish their goals. More and more, you'll start to compete for buyer business in a similar way you do for listings now! 2. FIND them their dream home. One of the top concerns for buyers as well as agents right now is the historic lack of inventory. It's YOUR job, not theirs to find the right home for their needs. -Be more creative in your MLS searches. Change the search area, change the TYPE of home, or find an equally great school district to look in that has more inventory. Remove square footage as a requirement, look for a 3 bedroom with a loft instead of only 4 bedrooms, for example. -Refer to our podcast series about how to find inventory that is NOT in your MLS. 3. KNOW and PRESENT solutions to get a better-than-average mortgage interest rate. You don't have to know as much as your competent mortgage lender does, but you should be able to competently discuss : 2-1 Buy Downs, Adjustable Rates, and how to pay points to lock in a lower rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage. 4. Be a matchmaker. You must be more proactive than your buyer is. If they're dying to be in just one specific neighborhood, doorknock that neighborhood for them to uncover the next motivated seller. 5. Provide additional value by being one step ahead once they're pending. Ready to become an EXPIRED Listing Agent?

How others speak of those not present is a good indication of how impeccable they are with their word. Know that words carry vibration and the intention casts spells in the direction of truth and harmony, or towards darkness and destruction. Be careful of the stories you take in and those you tell, and be especially mindful of those telling them.

In this episode, you'll explore the critical role of agreements during times of conflicts in your own marriage. Just like any game, your marriage really only works on the adherence to certain rules or guidelines, then everyone can have fun playing the game! While your marriage involves various agreements for different aspects of life, the most vital ones are those designed for navigating conflicts. These agreements, treated as laws, encompass actions for you to take or avoid when emotions run high, including refraining from yelling, name-calling, bringing up past grievances, or storming out without communicating the need for a break. Beyond mere verbal promises, these agreements demand your genuine commitment and personal responsibility. Emotions are viewed as data, not directives, and you're encouraged to recognize your emotions, calm your nervous system, and pause when necessary. Even when your partner fails to uphold their agreements, this episode stresses the importance of your personal integrity and establishing minimum acceptable standards for yourself, ultimately providing you with a roadmap for resolving conflicts constructively and maintaining a healthy marriage.
