Value investor and former New York City mayoral candidate Whitney Tilson returns to The Julia La Roche Show following the election of Zohran Mamdani, a Democratic socialist, as NYC's new mayor. Tilson reflects on the election results, expressing concern about the candidate he called a "Trojan horse for the DSA" with dangerous ideas about defunding police and seizing private property—yet remains bullish on New York City's future.

I talk with a lot of folks regularly, and two recent conversations got me thinking about how people view wealth and expansion. Some say they want to get to billions of dollars, others feel that's way too much responsibility, and then there are those who simply say, "I want to be limitless."   As I was getting ready to record this, I noticed this little Charlie Munger plush doll I picked up at the Berkshire Hathaway meeting. I remember seeing a line of about a hundred people waiting to buy these things, and I thought, what on earth? But it made me realize something—billions is not just a number. It's an energy. It's the energy of expansion.   Many people don't actually want to expand that big, while others do—but can't get out of their own way. The truth is, it's not about the billions of dollars. It's about the billions of possibilities, the expansiveness, the energy you tap into when you think that big.   I remember being at a women's entrepreneur event and listening to a woman speak who had achieved billions in sales. It got me thinking deeply about this idea of billions. Back when I was helping companies grow, scale, and get sold—handling everything from strategy to sales—we once did a deal with a company worth $22 billion. At the time, it sounded like a huge number, but not impossible. My thought was simply, let's go serve these people and make it happen.   Now, after helping so many people find what they want—financially, physically, emotionally—I've realized that billions isn't about money. It's about energy. It's an energy that expands your thinking, stretches your imagination, and shifts your mindset from limitation to possibility.   After hearing that incredible woman's story, I was so inspired that I immediately found a recording studio while I was still out of town and created something called "Awakening the Billionaire Mindset." It's an audio designed to help you tap into that billions energy—that expansiveness that helps you think and act on a much larger scale. I'll put a link to it in the description.   Whatever it is you desire financially, if you don't think big enough, you'll end up settling. You'll hit a number, plateau, and tell yourself that's all you're capable of. I've done that myself. But to break through, you have to break something—specifically, the energy container that's been holding you back.   And I don't mean breaking energy in a destructive way. I mean expanding it—cracking open the limits of what you've believed possible for yourself. Sometimes those limits are self-imposed, and sometimes they're shaped by others. Either way, it's time to awaken that billionaire blueprint inside you. We all have it. Divine gave it to us.   Follow & Let's Get in Touch!   Official Links Website: https://sheevaunmoran.com/ Conference: http://epiclifesuccesssummit.com Blog: https://blog.sheevaunmoran.com/   Let's Connect on Social Media Twitter:   / sheevaun   LinkedIn:   / sheevaunmoran   Facebook:    / sheevaunmoran   Instagram:   / sheevaunmoran

Charlie Munger was one of the wealthiest men who ever lived. He also wrote about his own “wit and wisdom.” Yet Munger apparently spoke little of God, let alone Christ, in the large number of words he deliberately spoke or wrote for public consumption, including his fondess for “backward thinking.” Join Kevin for a peek at the life of Charlie Munger…and for a word or two from the Word of God! // Download this episode's Application & Action questions and PDF transcript at whitestone.org.

Chris is a rare public company three-peat, having taken three companies public on the New York Stock Exchange, two of which he started. He repeated successes ultimately attracted a who's who of investors, including Berkshire Hathaway, which was the largest shareholder in his last company. But after leading this company for ten years, he stepped down to give back and help future leaders. He wrote the first book on the financial ingredients of corporate wealth creation, which are at the heart of the fortunes of all billionaires and most multi-millionaires. He is now embarking on a video series.

Warren Buffett heeft er niet echt zin meer in. Zijn Berkshire Hathaway blijft maar aandelen verkopen. Al drie jaar lang verkoopt hij meer, dan dat ie koopt. Zijn cashberg blijft maar groeien en tikt een nieuw record aan: hij heeft nu meer dan 381 miljard dollar achter de hand. Om aan te geven hoe krankzinnig veel dat is. Met dat geld kan je Ahold Delhaize, Prosus, Heineken, ING én Universal Music Group kopen. Deze aflevering kijken we of het terecht is dat Buffett maar niks koopt. Als hij geen kansen ziet, moet jij dan wel kopen? Ook hebben we het over modellen. Over auto's om precies te zijn. Auto-aandelen hadden er vandaag wél zin in. De vrees dat er een chiptekort ontstaat (door de ruzie tussen Nederland en China) is voor nu weg. Alleen, voor hoe lang?Verder bespreken we de jaarrekening van Ebusco. Dat ziet er niet goed uit, de accountant vond foutjes. Ook gaat het over de kwartaalcijfers PostNL en de ceo van Ryanair. Die is helemaal klaar met de Britse minister van Financiën. Deze aflevering gaat ook over Nvidia. Dat mag toch niet z'n meest geavanceerde chip verkopen in China. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Amazon bekommt einen $38 Mrd. Auftrag von OpenAi, was den Nadsaq anfacht. Ansonsten ist die Tendenz trotz eines Mega-Deal im Pharmabereich und einer weiteren Annäherung zwischen China und den USA uneinheitlich. Kenvue wird für fast $50 Mrd. von Kimberly Clark übernommen. Letzte Woche kursierten Gerüchte, dass sich auch Moderna zum Verkauf aufgestellt hat. Die Aktionäre werden in Cash und Aktien angefunden. Was Quartalszahlen betrifft, hatte wir letzte Woche den Zenit der Meldungen. Es haben nicht nur ungewöhnlich viele Unternehmen die Ertragsziele geschlagen. 43% der Firmen, die sich zu den Aussichten äußerten, haben die Prognosen angehoben. Wir sehen für Q3 nun ein solides Gewinnwachstum von 10,7%, berichtet FactSet. Berkshire Hathaway konnte am Wochenende die Erwartungen ebenfalls übertreffen, mit der Aktie vor dem Opening freundlich. Im weiteren Wochenverlauf stehen erneut einige wichtige Tech-Ergebnisse an. Heute Abend meldet Palantir, gefolgt von AMD, Arista Networks, Super Micro, Shopify und Spotify am Dienstag.

KI-Fantasie treibt. Die Aussicht auf keine US-Zusatzzölle gegen China bis Ende 2026 entspannt die Lage. Auto-Werte legen zu, Mercedes +1,6 %, VW +2 %. Der DAX schließt bei 24.132 Punkten, +0,7 %.

Charttechnisch zählt nun, ob oberhalb von 24.000 genug Schwung für das Rekordhoch bei 24.771 entsteht. Firmen im Fokus: Siemens Energy auf Rekordhoch, Jahresplus rund 120 %.

De vrees dat er een chiptekort ontstaat (door de ruzie tussen Nederland en China) is voor nu weg. Alleen, voor hoe lang?Verder bespreken we de jaarrekening van Ebusco. Dat ziet er niet goed uit, de accountant vond foutjes. Ook gaat het over de kwartaalcijfers PostNL en de ceo van Ryanair. Die is helemaal klaar met de Britse minister van Financiën. Deze aflevering gaat ook over Nvidia. Dat mag toch niet z'n meest geavanceerde chip verkopen in China. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway has sold stocks for 12 consecutive quarters, building a record $382 billion cash pile as the legendary investor prepares to step down as CEO, signaling caution about market conditions. Meanwhile, Big Tech is going the opposite direction—Amazon, Microsoft, Alphabet, and Meta are collectively spending over $380 billion on AI infrastructure, though investor reactions have been mixed due to unclear ROI paths, especially for Meta. India faces a severe trade crisis as US tariffs hit 50%, causing exports to plummet 37.5% between May and September, devastating sectors from textiles to smartphones. On a positive note, ISRO successfully launched India's heaviest communication satellite (4,410kg) from Indian soil, proving growing self-reliance in space technology. Finally, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is actively improving relations with India as part of his strategy to reduce Canada's economic dependence on the United States, aiming to double non-US exports within a decade.

Daniel R. Diodati, a fourth generation Hillie, is competing with Veronica A. Rodriguez, also a Haverhill native, to represent Ward 2 on the Haverhill City Council in January. The winner replaces Katrina Hobbs Everett who chose not to run again.Diodati manages Berkshire Hathaway real estate offices in Haverhill. Rodriquez works for the Lawrence office of the state Department of Children and Families. Each recently appeared on WHAV's morning show and answered six questions on challenging issues in the city. Here are their answers in the order their names appear on the ballot.Why do you want to serve on City Council?“With the skills that I have I really feel like I can contribute and I thought it was time to throw my hat in the ring. The reason is civic engagement being so low, it was time for someone like myself to step up and try to make a difference.” Diodati said.“I love Haverhill first of all and, lately, it's been in the news for some of the wrong things. I don't think you can complain if you don't try to make a difference so that's why I want to serve,” Rodriguez said.There is a perception Haverhill is building too much housing. Do you agree?“I do think there could be a smarter way to develop residential housing if we really look at homeownership. Homeownership is super, super important in any community,” Diodati said.“I think that we should fix the places that we have that are abandoned first. I think we need to get more creative because all that housing is going to bring a lot traffic, it is going to bring other problems. So, we need to maybe think outside of the box to help because we do have a housing crisis,” Rodriguez said.What can the City Council do to promote more affordable housing?“Between homeownership, development of new construction that is based on owner-occupied projects, mixed in with ADU (accessory dwelling unit) use, I think it is a great start. And, things are in motion to do that. I just hope to simplify things and make it a little bit better,” Diodati said.“We do have a housing trust but there's no money in it. I think maybe if some of these new developments, we should maybe make them pay into that so we do have some funds so we can think of some projects we can do for affordable housing,” Rodriguez said.The death of Francis P. Gigliotti II while in police custody and the death of Officer Katelyn M. Tully have left the public looking for answers, especially in light of changes at the top of the police department. Do you think the public has the right to know more and how quickly and what types of information do you think is properly withheld?“Just to have a little bit more transparency in the process and how it is messaged to the public whether it be through an actually press conference, not necessarily through just making social media posts, etc. If there is no news to report, then report that there is no news to report,” Diodati said.“I think they did a good job informing the public. They put it out there right away. I do think that out of respect for her family, the cause of death and those types of things should be kept private just out of respect. I think they should be transparent. The public is what put them in. We pay for their jobs so we definitely need to know what's going on. We need to know,” Rodriguez said.Do you believe residential property taxes are too low, too high or about right?“Too high. Because mindset is everything to me. And I do think we act upon on our thoughts. As long as we are controlling in our head that taxes are too high, we are going to work to keep them as low as possible,” Diodati said.“When I am paying them, I think they are too high but when I compare them to other cities, they're not so high.” Rodriguez said.What specifSupport the show

Kia ora,Welcome to Monday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news rising inflation pressures are now appearing everywhere in the West, underpinned by poor economic judgements.This week will be a busy one on the economic data front, even with the US federal agencies shut down.Locally, all eyes will be on the Q3 labour market data and most observers expect it to show our jobless rate rise to 5.3%.In Australia, the key economic event will be the RBA's rate review late on Tuesday and there will be heightened interest on how they view their rising inflation. That will drive a reassessment by financial markets about where their interest rates are heading. Australia's September trade balance is due and a big surplus is anticipated.Other central banks will chime in this week with rate reviews of their own, including Sweden, Norway and England, among others.In the US while they won't have any official data, focus will turn to the ADP Employment Report, ISM PMIs, and the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index. Canada will release its labour market data too.In China, the October trade surplus is expected to widen to around US$100 bln, although the latest official NBS manufacturing PMI showed a decline in new export orders for October. The broader RatingDog (Caixin) Manufacturing PMI is also expected to signal a further slowdown in factory activity, and its services counterpart will also be closely watched.China's official October PMIs came in over the weekend without any significant improvements from September. They say their factory PMI is now contracting marginally more and a noticeable step lower than last month, and their services PMI is barely expanding, when a small improvement was expected.Japanese industrial production rose +3.4% in September from a year ago, a much better surge in the month than the +0.5% rise that was anticipated.In the US, the Chicago PMI rose in October from its worryingly low August and September levels, but it is still contracting and it has done so for 23 consecutive months now. This month's slight improvement is on the back of a rise in new orders, modest as it may be. Basically this metric is just contracting slower now.But some companies are doing well there. An example is Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway which reported profits of US$48 bln in its latest nine month result, US$31 bln in Q3 alone. They now have cash holdings of US$382 bln. Buffett himself is fading from view now and it will be a challenge for his replacement to maintain the charisma.The EU said its October inflation level is down to 2.1%, the expected dip from September's 2.2%.In Australia, there is more evidence inflation is embedding at levels well above 3%. On Friday they released their Q3 PPI and that came in at 3.5%, unchanged from Q2, and up +1.0% for the latest quarter. Analysts had expected it to reduce.in Q3, but that isn't happening. The RBA will be as unhappy with this as it was with the equally high CPI result. Only recently a rate cut tomorrow was a sure bet, but no longer.And staying in Australia, bank lending grew +7.3% in September, up +6.3% for housing but up +9.5% for business from the same month a year ago. But there is a noticeable dip in business lending in September from August which surprised some. Going the other way, observers were equally surprised by the monthly surge in housing loans.The surge is worrying APRA. The combination of demand from the FHB guarantee scheme, and exuberance by investors is joining to create the rush. And it is only expected to increase. So the regulator is stepping in with warnings to banks to reign in the party. High DTI lending is their special focus.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.10%, unchanged from Saturday at this time. The price of gold will start today at US$4001/oz, down -US$5 from this time Saturday. That is down -US$107 from this time last week. But it is up +US$141 or +3.6% for the month.American oil prices are+50 USc firmer from Saturday at just on US$61/bbl, with the international Brent price now just over US$64.50/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at just on 57.2 USc, and down unchanged from Saturday. It is down -20 bps for the week, and down -70 bps or -1.2% for the month. Against the Aussie we are unchanged at 87.5 AUc. Against the euro we are also little-changed at 49.7 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just over 61.8 and down -30 bps from yesterday, down -20 bps for the week, down -40 bps for the month.The bitcoin price starts today at US$110,113 and up +0.8% from this time Saturday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been low at just on +/- 0.6%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again tomorrow.

In this KE Report Daily Editorial, we're joined by Joel Elcoin, co-host of the PreMarket Prep Show and founder of the Stock Trader Network, to break down the volatile market reaction to the latest Fed rate cut, shifting investor sentiment, and the reemergence of the value trade. Key Discussion Highlights: Fed Cuts at Market Highs: Since 1980, every instance of the Fed cutting rates at all-time highs has been followed by higher markets one year later - will history repeat itself? Hawkish Powell & Government Shutdown Risks: Despite the cut, Jerome Powell's hawkish tone and the ongoing U.S. government shutdown are adding uncertainty, with concerns growing over missed data and economic drag. Trade Wars and Critical Minerals: Trump's latest trade maneuvering - cutting new deals with Australia and Southeast Asia - may have backfired, strengthening China's position and unsettling markets overnight. Earnings & AI Fatigue: Big tech names like Meta and Nvidia highlight how massive AI spending may be outpacing returns, prompting investors to question where the next phase of growth will come from. Rotation to Value: With tech under pressure, capital is flowing toward financials, utilities, and defensive value plays like Berkshire Hathaway and JP Morgan—signaling a market shifting gears, not retreating.

By the time he stepped down from the third of these companies in 2021, he and his team had built the company's market value to just north of $10 billion and counted as their largest shareholder Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway. And when he stepped away, he didn't step back. He leaned in, writing the first book on how companies create wealth called “The Value Equation: A Business Guide to Wealth Creation for Entrepreneurs, Leaders and Investors.” Most multimillionaires achieve their wealth through the ownership of equity in one or more businesses and Chris wanted to show how this happens and lay out the characteristics of the best businesses. And now, Chris is embarking on a video series to further spread the word. His first two videos dropped on his YouTube Channel in October and you can expect two a month over the next year.

That is the biggest predictor of meaning, joy, and opportunities—not the environment..How will this customer be different as a result of doing business with you? That's the game-changing question.

KHC was a merger formed in 2015 and will cease to exist in 2026 when it is again split into two companies. It is currently the 5th largest food company in the world. When Warren Buffett, who is recognized to be the most successful stock investor in the world, invested $3.76 Billion dollars of Berkshire Hathaway's money Kraft Heinz he was sure it would provide a generous return. Berkshire have now lost $2.63 billion in this venture. There are lessons for you to learn from this loss. Perhaps the biggest is do your own basic research and do not accept that anyone can accurately predict future share prices.In this podcast (with a written transcript attached) you can get an understanding of why the stock scoring software supplied with my books makes it easy to identify and sort the strength of the kind of stocks you wish to acquire for your portfolio. I write my investment books for those who fear that they will lose their life savings by investing in the stock market My books show  investors  an easy, safe way to select financially strong, safe, growing companies who pay high dividends .  I have been successfully investing this way for twenty years .My portfolio of strong dividend stocks not only provides me with a reliable, growing source of income but over time has increase the value of my portfolio by several multiples.Unlike mutual funds and index funds - where investors have no control over their investment and  only a vague idea as to what stocks are in the fund - a self-directed investor can fully understand  and appreciate the value of each stock in the portfolio that they created.

Episode Summary On episode 318 of Business Coaching Secrets, hosts Karl Bryan and Rode Dog dive deep into the realities of building a thriving coaching business, from mindset and strategy to the nuts-and-bolts of profit growth. Karl discusses why listening to seasoned, successful entrepreneurs (“old and rich”) is the ultimate shortcut, warns against the flashy social media gurus, and offers step-by-step frameworks for helping clients boost their profits—even with simple tweaks like raising prices or launching new services. This episode is packed with actionable ideas for coaches working with local businesses and offers critical advice for coaches struggling to transition from previous careers. Key Topics Covered Choosing Who to Listen To: “Old and Rich” vs. the New Gurus Karl argues most social media and “guru” advice is flashy but hollow, highlighting why the wisdom of long-term, successful entrepreneurs like Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger is far more valuable. He points out the pitfalls of following voices that are motivational but unproven, and underscores the importance of critical thinking in selecting mentors and sources. Mindset, Psychology, and Temperament for Struggling Coaches Rode Dog and Karl address coaches transitioning from successful careers who find themselves struggling—they explore mental gymnastics, the power of building a bigger/brighter future, managing psychology, and the necessity of consistent forward progress over time. Business Model Fundamentals: Profit, Pricing, and Retention The hosts unpack principles from Karl's operating system, like the impact of raising prices incrementally, controlling costs, and focusing relentlessly on profit rather than just revenues. They debunk the myth that scale equals success, spotlighting profit as the real domino for business stability. Additional Products and Services—Real-World Examples Karl walks through detailed examples—bakery, butcher, landscaping business, hair salon, gym—showing coaches how to help clients add offerings to increase repeat business and margins, using McDonald's cross-selling (“Do you want fries with that?”) as a gold standard. Ideas range from day-old bread and foam rollers to personal training upsells, maintenance plans, and branded merchandise. Client Feedback and Creativity Rode Dog highlights the importance of simply asking customers what they want as a source for new ideas. They discuss why business owners miss these opportunities and how tapping into actual client preferences unlocks profitable new offerings. Compounding Progress and the Boring Path to Wealth Karl returns to the principle that consistent, incremental improvement (1% per day) compounds into massive long-term success. Temperament, discipline, and sticking to fundamentals—rather than chasing the next shiny object—lead to sustainable wealth and client impact. Notable Quotes “You want to listen to people who've been through the dot-com bubble, the 2008 crash, Covid… still standing. These are the autobiographies you want to be reading.” – Karl Bryan “Old and rich, very, very rare. These are the types of people to be listening to… using your critical thinking skills.” – Karl Bryan “The secret to having a better now is having a bigger, brighter future.” – Karl Bryan “Profit is the domino that knocks over all the other dominoes.” – Karl Bryan “You don't have a client or money problem, you have a refusal to help people before they pay you problem.” – Karl Bryan “Success in business is incredibly boring… It's the fundamentals. Consistency and discipline over amazing skill and talent.” – Karl Bryan Actionable Takeaways 1. Seek Wisdom, Not Hype: Follow and learn from seasoned, long-term entrepreneurs—not trendy social media personalities. 2. Build Your Psychology and Temperament: Focus on mindset; resilience and a future-oriented frame are critical for coaches struggling after prior successes. 3. Use Operating Systems and Compounding Returns: Adopt systems that drive incremental improvements (across pricing, cost control, product/service expansion) for clients—1% daily progress compounds powerfully over a year. 4. Help Clients Add or Upsell Products/Services: Leverage simple cross-sells, bundles, and maintenance/upgrades as repeat business and margin boosters. 5. Ask Clients for Feedback: Encourage your clients to solicit ideas directly from their customers—sometimes the most profitable additions are hiding in plain sight. 6. Remember: Progress Equals Happiness: Keep your clients (and yourself) moving forward consistently, celebrating incremental wins and compounding growth.

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training What would happen if one client lawsuit, one hacked account, or one missed renewal completely wiped out your agency? Have you ever stopped to think about how exposed your business really is even if you're “doing everything right”? Today's featured guest started his career working in the insurance industry and eventually found a love for marketing. He talks about the side of agency life most people ignore: protecting what you've built, and breaks down how to safeguard your business with the right insurance, why every agency should have cyber liability coverage, and how a “give first” mindset has helped him land major clients like Daymond John, Chris Voss, and Dr. Benjamin Hardy. Draye Redfern is a serial entrepreneur and the founder of Redfern Media and FractionalCMO. Over the past decade, he's built and sold multiple companies, including a $40M insurance agency acquired by one of Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway subsidiaries. With 15 years in risk management and a passion for modern marketing, Draye now helps businesses scale smarter while protecting their downside. In this episode, we'll discuss: How “Growth Blindness” Can Hurt Your Business. The Hidden Risk Most Agencies Ignore. Why You Probably Need a Cyber Liability Insurance.

His dad owned a business, and by age 12, Draye was doing the grunt work: filing papers, scanning documents, and learning what it really meant to keep a company running. He had a front-row seat to the chaos and grit of small business. Over time, Draye realized he had a knack for marketing. His early ideas sometimes outperformed everyone else's, and by his early 20s, he was leading the marketing division of a $28 million firm. Under his direction, they scaled past $40 million in annual revenue. That success led to the company's eventual sale to none other than one of the Berkshire Hathaway companies. Stop Being Growth Blind and Start Protecting the Downside While most marketers are obsessed with lead flow and growth, Draye brings a completely different mindset to the table: protect the downside first. After spending 15 years insurance and the risk management world, he learned that too many businesses are “growth blind.” They're chasing top-line numbers while leaving themselves totally exposed if something goes wrong. For his part, Draye thinks about how to mitigate downside risks first and then, once he has that locked down, then he starts thinking about growth. Admittedly, it's backwards from how most people do it, but it's what makes the most sense to him.  The Hidden Risk Most Agencies Ignore Why does Draye prioritize mitigating downside growth? Most agencies don't think about errors and omissions (E&O) insurance until it's too late. One poorly worded ad, a leaked password, or a miscommunication with a client could lead to a lawsuit that costs hundreds of thousands—if not millions—in legal fees. That's why he recommends a basic “risk protection stack” for agency owners: General Liability – Covers physical damages or slip-and-fall type issues. Employment Practices (EPLI) – Protects against HR-related claims. Errors & Omissions (E&O) – Covers mistakes or oversights in your work. Cyber Liability – Protects against data breaches and hacks. As Draye puts it, marketing agencies hold the keys to dozens of client kingdoms. If you get hacked, they get hacked. Protect yourself first, then scale. Why Every Agency Owner Needs Cyber Liability (and What Happens If You Don't) Most agency owners assume general liability insurance has them covered. Slip-and-fall in the office? Sure. But what about when a client's site gets hacked because one of your team members reused a password? Or when a campaign you ran unintentionally exposes customer data? That's not covered: this is where cyber liability and errors & omissions (E&O) insurance come in. Here's where most people go wrong: they forget to renew. Unlike car or home insurance, E&O and cyber liability policies are “claims-made” policies. That means you're only covered if the policy is active when the claim is filed, not when the incident happened. So if you let your policy lapse, even for a few weeks, you could lose coverage for everything that happened in previous years. That's why many experienced owners “tail out” their policies when they sell or sunset a business. Tail coverage locks in past protection for a set number of years. It costs more upfront but prevents millions in potential exposure later. Keep your coverage active, review it annually, and don't cut corners to save a few hundred bucks. Think of it as part of your agency's operating system, not an optional add-on. Lessons From Selling to Berkshire Hathaway When Berkshire Hathaway came calling, he learned just how deep corporate due diligence can go. “They fly out all their MBAs and basically give your business a financial colonoscopy,” he joked. But that process forced him to see business from a different lens—as an asset, not a job. He walked away with not just a successful exit, but also a new appreciation for how structure, systems, and compliance create enterprise value. How to Get Big Clients: Ask Questions, Be in the Room, and Give First Draye's agency has publicly traded companies in its current client roster, with some notable names including Dr Benjamin Hardy and Chris Voss, and almost all of those brands came to his agency because Draye was in the right rooms to strike up conversation. As he puts it, successful people like to hang around other successful people. To him, his job in the agency at this point is figuring out how to get invited into the room with the right people, which includes joining masterminds and attending events. Even with big clients, Draye recommends offering value first without expecting anything in return. I'll give them an idea of the work you do and, if they like it, they'll have you in mind the next time they need agency services. For instance, after attending a talk by Dr. Benjamin Hardy, Draye had the chance to chat with him and learned he was pulling in over 30,000 email opt-ins a month but wasn't monetizing them. Instead of pitching a retainer, Draye built him a simple funnel — for free — that started generating $10,000 a month in passive revenue. A few months later, Hardy came back and asked, “What else can you do?” That turned into a long-term partnership and a roster of launches that ran for years. How to Stand Out and Make People Feel Seen Draye's other secret weapon is personalization. Not the lazy kind where someone drops your name into a cold email template. Real personalization. When a prospect says they're interested, his team clones a landing page, updates the name in the headline (“Welcome, John!”), and records a 30-second video personally greeting them. The whole process takes fifteen minutes, but it makes people feel like they matter, and that's the part most agencies forget. That simple touch has led to multiple referrals, long-term clients, and lasting loyalty. As Draye puts it, “People don't want to feel like a number. They want to feel like they matter.” This type of simple gesture is usually something clients talk about non-stop, because the more automated the world gets, the more human connection stands out. Old School Is the New Advantage While everyone else is obsessing over AI and inbox deliverability, Draye see a lot of potential on a forgotten channel: direct mail. “People's inboxes are full, but their mailboxes are empty,” he explained. “So, when something real shows up, it stands out.” He's seen massive ROI from direct mail, especially when paired with personalized URLs (PURLs) and custom video. It's more expensive upfront, sure, but it cuts through the noise. Something to keep in mind for agency owners trying to stand out at a time when your client's emails are probably inundated with the same offers everyone is sending out. From his own experience, he says “if I were to look at our client base across the various businesses, the vast majority came from direct mail.” Protect Your Business and Hang Out in Different Rooms Draye shares two pieces of advice for agency owners: You never know what's around the corner, so protect your business. Spend the couple thousand bucks on proper coverage. Don't risk your agency's future over something preventable. Change your rooms. If you only hang out with other marketers, you're limiting your reach. Take Jay Abraham's advice and go fishing in someone else's swimming hole. Attend events for other industries, add value, and you'll be amazed at who you meet. In short, Draye's philosophy blends practical protection with proactive growth. Be bold enough to give first, smart enough to protect what you've built, and intentional enough to show up where the right people are.

Steven Grey, chief investment officer at Grey Value Management, says that inflated valuations have him making cash his favorite investment choice right now, noting that they can gain interest income while avoiding significant market risk while waiting for stock prices to blow off. The cash, Grey notes, not only will increase an investor's sleep factor, but it gives them the option to be buying when the rest of the market is selling. Grey says in the Market Call that his thinking also extends to the stocks he prefers right now, noting that he expects Berkshire Hathaway — notably holding a mountain of cash — to be a financial fortress that turns into a big positive when the money gets put to work when the market turns. John Cole Scott, president of CEF Advisors — the chairman of the Active Investment Company Alliance — discusses the changing landscape of business-development companies and the details he gleaned from attending the recent Eversheds BDC Roundtable, which focused on legislative and other issues that are creating challenges and opportunities for the industry. Ted Rossman, senior industry analyst at Bankrate.com, talks about his recent analysis of how inflation is impacting credit-card rewards, taking some of the shine off the perks and making it more important that consumers know the rules to get great value from their rewards cards.

In this episode, Greg revisits Warren Buffett's timeless wisdom to uncover who's “swimming naked” in today's market. Drawing on Rob Arnott and Edward McQuarrie's recent CFA research on risk and investor psychology, he explains how both fear of loss and fear of missing out drive market behavior far more than models admit. Greg dissects several headline-grabbing products, from “high income” S&P 500 ETFs and 77% yielding Nvidia options funds to the Dual Directional Buffer ETF and the “Magnificent Seven Snowball,” revealing how they offer the illusion of safety or income while eroding long-term returns. He closes with a Buffett-style case study on Occidental Petroleum and Berkshire Hathaway's recent deal, underscoring the power of simple, steady cash flow over engineered complexity.As Leonardo da Vinci said, “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication,” and it is also one of the surest ways to compound wealth. Topics Covered[00:00:41] – Who's swimming naked?
