In this episode of Wealth Coffee Chats, Sarah reveals a quiet yet powerful regulatory shift that could reshape Australia's mortgage market. APRA is making it easier for smaller banks to access the same low-cost lending advantages as the Big Four—meaning more competition, sharper rates, and better deals for borrowers. Find out how this change impacts refinancing, specialised lending, and why the mortgage wars are just beginning.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the escalating showdown between Trump's deportation teams and Democrat-run sanctuary cities, a socialist Senate candidate in Maine with Nazi tattoos, and Trump's clash with America's ranchers over beef prices.   Democrats Shield Violent Illegals: Nine illegal aliens from African nations were arrested in New York for crimes including robbery, assault, and drug trafficking. Local Democrats, including Mayor Eric Adams and socialist Zohran Mamdani, condemned the arrests as “authoritarian theatrics.” In Los Angeles, an activist teacher warned that “ICE isn't the only one with guns,” while Illinois launched a hotline for citizens to report unmarked federal vehicles. Bryan calls it “a coordinated resistance between politicians, activists, and cartels.”   Democrat Senate Candidate Exposed: In Maine, Democrat hopeful Graham Platner apologized for a Nazi tattoo but not for training Antifa and socialist gun clubs in paramilitary tactics. Endorsed by Bernie Sanders, Platner claims his behavior stemmed from PTSD. Bryan warns, “Democrats say they fight fascism, but they're fine with it when it's their fascism.”   Trump vs. America's Ranchers: The President told ranchers to lower beef prices, crediting his tariffs for their recent profits. But Bryan explains that droughts, rising feed costs, screw-worm outbreaks, and market monopolies by the Big Four packers — Tyson, JBS, Cargill, and Marfrig — are the real culprits. He spotlights a new Nebraska rancher-owned processing plant as a hopeful sign for fair pricing and independence from corporate control.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Trump deportations sanctuary cities, New York ICE arrests African illegals, Eric Adams Zohran Mamdani resistance, Los Angeles ICE protest threats, Graham Platner Nazi tattoo Antifa training, Bernie Sanders endorsement, Trump ranchers beef prices tariffs, Big Four meatpackers monopoly, Nebraska rancher meat plant

SNY and WFAN's Sal Licata joins Kelley Franco for a no-holds-barred dive into Mets offseason mayhem. Should the Mets blow up the Big Four at the top of the lineup, and trade Lindor or Nimmo? Is Pete Alonso worth the money and the years he is demanding? From bold offseason proposals to behind-the-scenes coaching shakeups (is Kai Correa the manager-in-waiting?), nothing's off-limits. Plus: Reaction to Boone and Cashman's end-of-season ho-hum presser, with injury news on Volpe, Rodón, Cole, and Schmidt. And then Sal and Kelley play the first ever recorded (we think) game show of “guess the al dente cooking time of this pasta shape”. Of course, Sal closes the show by telling us….what's good to eat while watching the ballgame. Don't miss this episode!Follow me on YouTube, X and IG: @threeinningfan*Music by Podington Bear

In this week’s episode of Dem Vinyl Boyz, we’re diving into the thrash metal battleground with Megadeth’s explosive fourth album, Rust in Peace. Released on September 24, 1990, this record not only cemented Megadeth’s legacy as one of the "Big Four" of thrash (alongside Metallica, Slayer, and Anthrax), but it also pushed the genre into technically masterful and politically charged territory. This was Dave Mustaine’s first album featuring lead guitarist Marty Friedman and drummer Nick Menza, forming what many consider the band’s ultimate lineup. From the opening riff of "Holy Wars... The Punishment Due" to the laser-precise fretwork on "Hangar 18," Rust in Peace is a relentless assault of speed, complexity, and precision. Mustaine’s songwriting balances anti-war themes, conspiracy theories, and dystopian visions — and wraps them in some of the most intricate metal arrangements ever pressed to wax. The album received widespread critical acclaim and is now regarded as a cornerstone of thrash metal, earning Grammy nominations and spots on numerous “greatest albums” lists. It’s a record that influenced not just metalheads, but also shaped the evolution of progressive and technical metal for decades to come. Whether you’re a longtime fan or experiencing it for the first time, Rust in Peace is more than an album — it’s a mission statement from a band firing on all cylinders and changing the game in the process.

What happens to innovation, team dynamics, and trust in organizations when a significant portion of employees are emotionally fragile, risk-averse, and struggle with interpersonal interactions? In this episode of the Delighted Customers podcast, I dive into the profound impact of generational shifts on workplace culture, leadership, and customer experience. Drawing insight from the best-selling book, The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt, my guest Charlie Green and I explore how Gen Z—shaped by overprotective parenting, the rise of social media, and the isolating effects of Covid—are changing the future of professional services firms and beyond. The implications are not just for the workplace, but for entire industries that rely on innovation, adaptability, and trustworthiness from their teams. You need to listen to this episode because Charlie Green is not just an expert on trust—he literally wrote the book on it!

If you're responsible for hiring, leading, or influencing teams in any organization, Charlie offers the data, the anecdotes, and the actionable advice you need to spot warning signs and respond effectively. Here are three questions Charlie answers during our conversation: What are the biggest risks facing organizations as Gen Z moves into leadership roles? How can managers recognize and respond to "emotional fragility" and risk-aversion in their teams? What practical strategies can leaders use to build trust, resilience, and effective collaboration in a hybrid, post-pandemic world? Don't miss this timely episode!

Ryan made $3 million, lived in a Chicago penthouse, and had only been to three of his daughter's soccer games in 16 years. That moment on his rooftop changed everything for me. In this raw conversation with Rayn Bakke, I share why we both walked away from Big Four careers to build something that actually matters. From getting mocked by Deloitte leadership for pursuing my dream to proving I could replace my salary in just 10 months, this is the real story of leaving corporate America's golden handcuffs. I'll take you inside the moment HR gave me an ultimatum, why I paid off my house the same week I quit, and how a conversation written in a McDonald's parking lot became the framework that's helped 2,300+ families transform their finances. Episode Timeline & Highlights [0:00] - The rooftop moment that made me form my first LLC [0:28] - Why we both left Deloitte despite being on partner track [2:37] - The night at 8pm when my boss called his kids instead of going home [4:38] - Making partner means buying into social commitments you can't escape [6:39] - My 12-month escape plan: Make or exceed my $100,000 salary [7:49] - "I heard you're a big star" - When HR found out about BudgetDog [9:02] - The partner who mocked me and became my fuel [10:38] - Who BudgetDog really serves: 76% of Americans living paycheck to paycheck [11:39] - Why $300,000 earners are struggling with credit card debt [12:35] - The behavioral psychologist in our academy (because money is emotional) [14:20] - The surgeon making $1 million who can't retire (daddy issues) [16:21] - Our student who gained $129,000 in net worth in 15 weeks [17:18] - Writing the entire academy framework in a McDonald's parking lot [20:16] - Why money is so much easier than people make it   Key Takeaways The golden handcuffs are real: Making partner isn't just about money; it's buying into a social commitment that can trap you for 40 years Your identity drives your finances: Most money problems aren't math problems, they're psychology problems rooted in childhood beliefs Proof before leap: I didn't just quit; I proved I could replace my income for 10 months before walking away Doubters become fuel: When leadership mocks your dreams, let it drive you to exceed their income (and I did) Systems beat willpower: An automated financial system removes the emotion and creates inevitable wealth   Quotables "My boss said he was going to call his kids to put them to bed. I left at 11pm and called my wife: 'I don't think this is the right move long term.'" "The partner mocked me: 'I became a Budget Dog connoisseur over the weekend.' That's when I went into kill mode." "76% of people living paycheck to paycheck isn't an income problem when $300,000 earners have credit card debt." "I wrote the entire academy framework in a McDonald's parking lot with pen and paper - everything I wish I'd known from scratch." "Whether you think you can or can't, you're right." - Henry Ford (and it's my favorite quote ever) Links & Resources BudgetDog Academy: budgetdogacademy.com/yt-get-started Connect on Instagram: https://instagram.com/budgetdog All platforms: @budgetdog Free resources: https://budgetdog.com If this episode hit home, share it with someone stuck in the corporate grind who needs to hear that there's life beyond the partner track.

Hustle culture nearly destroyed my health, my marriage, and my ability to be present for my daughters. In this deeply personal episode, I share why I stopped glorifying the grind and learned that working smarter not harder is the real path to sustainable success. From leaving Deloitte to build BudgetDog while caring for my daughter with Dravet syndrome, to discovering toxic mold that threatened our entire family's health, this is the raw truth about what endless hustle really costs. I'll walk you through the moments that forced me to choose between proving my worth through output and actually being present for what matters. Episode Timeline & Highlights [0:00] - Why hustle culture almost broke me [1:04] - The Big Four grind: Last man standing from my starting class [2:31] - Building a business from scratch isn't what Instagram tells you [3:44] - The moment everything changed: Logan's first seizure at 5 months [6:46] - October 2022: Turning the car around in a Michigan snowstorm [11:17] - The diagnosis that explained everything: Mold mycotoxins [14:19] - $300,000 gone in two months—and why we had to leave everything behind [20:04] - Dallas ice storm: Heart rate of 203 and another house rejection [23:13] - The health markers that scared us straight [29:10] - Making $1 million sitting by the pool vs. hundreds of thousands in a cubicle [32:34] - My new operating model: High-intensity spurts, not endless hustle [34:56] - Setting boundaries that actually stick Key Takeaways 1.

Health markers don't lie - When your cortisol is shot and your testosterone drops, your body is telling you something the hustle bros won't   Quotables "I made $1 million sitting at a pool. I made a couple hundred thousand sitting in a cubicle at Deloitte." "You can run on the treadmill to get in shape, but if you run on it forever, you're going to fall off and hurt yourself."

Rosemary Coates has spent three decades inside the hardest questions in manufacturing… where to build, what to move, and how to survive the politics around it. On this episode of The Manufacturing Culture Podcast, she walks through the real story behind offshoring, why reshoring is more trickle than tidal wave, and how companies can make smarter location calls without blowing up cost or capacity.We go back to her origin story… blue collar roots, a transportation management elective that lit the fuse, and a career that ran through Solar Turbines, defense work, Hewlett Packard, Big Four consulting, and finally her own firm. When the 2012 election turned China into a punching bag, Rosemary pivoted from moving factories out to helping leaders bring work back in a way that actually pencils. She founded the nonprofit, nonpartisan Reshoring Institute and now advises with data instead of slogans.We dig into what really changed. Labor in China is no longer cheap. Geopolitics now sits beside cost on the decision tree. Carbon footprint matters when your supply chain stretches across oceans. The grid cannot power a sudden factory boom even if you build it. And the workforce of today is not lining up for low skill, mind numbing assembly. The path forward looks like automation where it fits, contract manufacturing for flexibility, and a cold look at labor mix and total landed cost before anyone signs a lease.Mexico's rise gets a clear-eyed review… proximity, lower carbon, easier logistics, and a young workforce make Central Mexico compelling. Vietnam is full. India brings time and inventory penalties on the water. Demographics matter. So do hurricanes, wildfires, and the ability to shift production when the world throws a brick through your window.We also talk wages, the hole blown in the middle class, and why the new middle class is built on writing, computing, and mechatronics rather than grease and punch presses. Rosemary explains her expert witness work inside global supply chain disputes and leaves us with a simple truth… strategy beats sentiment, and the best decisions use both spreadsheets and context.Sponsor note:Med Device Boston is your go-to Med Tech sourcing and education expo, September 30 through October 1 at Boston's BCEC. 200 plus suppliers. 1500 plus attending professionals and OEM decision makers.

In today's episode host James Cox sits down with veteran rocker David Ellefson—a guitarist whose love affair with music began at eleven, when the bass line of Bachman‑Turner‑Overdrive's Not Fragile sparked a lifelong obsession. From those early needle‑drops to the thunder of KISS‑era amps, David walks us through the soundtrack of his life: the grind of marching‑band sax, the thrill of early cover‑band gigs, and the relentless quest to chase the songs that saved him from the darkness of depression.We dive deep into David's recent projects—his “No Cover” collection of beloved cuts, the hard‑rock collaboration with Jeff Scott Soto on the new album Unbreakable, and the behind‑the‑scenes stories from legendary Battery Studios in London, the very rooms that birthed Iron Maiden, Def Leppard, and even the original Nevermind console. Along the way, we hear anecdotes about the Trans‑Siberian Orchestra, Megadeth's “Big Four” saga, and a poignant moment recording a video right as the world mourned Ozzy Osbourne's passing.If you've ever found solace in a guitar solo, a soaring vocal, or the simple act of pressing play, this conversation is for you. Tune in as we explore how music not only fuels a career but also becomes a lifeline—one chord at a time.

Alicia climbs on her literary soapbox in this episode, the last to cover in our Big Four Spiderwebs episodes. Ginevra King was F. Scott's Fitzgerald's first love, and oh my – did she stick to his heart and writing for years, also with a little plagiarism too. This one is a literary spiderweb that Alicia will always be mad about and sheds additional light into Scott's psyche through the years.

In a departure from Newport this week, we are taking a detour to Lake Forest, Illinois to discover The Big Four. The Big Four was a Girl Gang unlike any other. These daughters of privilege are Margaret Carry, Courtney Letts, Edith Cummings, and Ginevra King, and each has her own special story. Today, we explore the origins of this quartet of lifelong female friendship as well as the life of Margaret “Peg” Carry, daughter of the onetime president of the Pullman Company. Peg's life was fairly conventional, but the kidnapping of her husband (Edward A. Cudahy) as a child is the real showstopper. This case, including the manhunt and criminal trail set American precedent long before the days where child kidnapping of rich men became popular.

AI is fast becoming a utility—accessible to everyone, everywhere. But if the tools are the same, where does competitive advantage come from? Courtney Baker, David DeWolf, and Mohan Rao explore the new sources of differentiation when AI is no longer scarce: proprietary data, clean pipelines, workflow integration, and a culture that learns faster than rivals. They even tackle whether generalists or specialists are better positioned to thrive in this new era. Pete Buer sits down with Kleio CEO Philippe Wellens to unpack why 95% of AI pilots fail, how to orchestrate AI agents with guardrails, and the right way to measure ROI and time-to-value when agents are taking real action inside your business. All of that PLUS Pete has a breakdown on why nimble AI-native boutiques are outpacing the Big Four—and what that means for leaders trying to steer enterprise giants. Curious how AI is reshaping leadership and redefining what it means to manage? Try rethinking your organization's leadership journey from the ground up.

Send us a textWhat does it really take to build a successful global consulting firm from scratch without external investment? In this revealing conversation, Jeffrey Cronkshaw, founder and group managing director of Lancia Consult, shares the untold story behind growing his consultancy from a two-person operation to a thriving international business with offices in Singapore, the UK, and beyond.The journey began not with a meticulously crafted business plan, but with a practical solution to work-life balance challenges when Jeffrey's wife Isabella returned from maternity leave at Accenture. What started as a simple contracting vehicle quickly evolved into something much more ambitious when they spotted a significant gap in the Southeast Asian market – a vacuum between the Big Four firms and very small local consultancies that was begging to be filled.Jeffrey candidly discusses the realities of leaving partner-track positions at Accenture, the early cash flow challenges, and how they've built a distinctive culture with a remarkably young leadership team. His approach to growth has been refreshingly opportunistic rather than following conventional wisdom – deliberately avoiding London when entering the UK market, prioritizing process development before problems arise, and maintaining a long-term vision rather than focusing on a quick exit.Most compelling is Lancia's strategy for competing with industry giants. Rather than trying to beat them at their own game, they've created distinct advantages: giving consultants broader experiences and faster progression opportunities, maintaining deep connections between offices that would typically operate as separate entities in larger firms, and carefully diversifying their service offerings beyond pure consulting.Whether you're considering starting your own consultancy, looking to join a growing firm, or simply fascinated by entrepreneurial journeys, this episode offers valuable insights into building a sustainable professional services business in today's competitive landscape. How might Lancia's approach change your thinking about what's possible in the consulting world?Prof. Joe O'Mahoney helps boutique consultancies scale and exit.

=== SNIPPETS FROM THE SUMMIT === Remember last week I offered you every advantage over me when it comes to attracting women...except ONE. ICYMI, that led to the conclusion that the third pillar of the Big Four traits that universally attract women needed some adjustment. Well, after giving it some serious thought, the truth is times have changed and the NEW third pillar reflects the evolution of society over the past couple of decades since I first formulated the Big Four. On the surface, it's SO obvious you might be left shaking your head at first. But the hard truth is if you actually exhibit it nowadays, you have a MASSIVE advantage over most guys. https://mountaintoppodcast.com/substack === HELP US SEND THE MESSAGE TO GREAT MEN EVERYWHERE === Snippets From The Summit are all about completely original ideas for success with women that also happen to be extemely effective...and actionable.

Police Under Cover Truths: Inside His DEA Career, Cartels, and Motorcycle Gangs. For more than two decades, David Tyree lived a double life. On the surface, he was a dedicated agent with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Behind the scenes, he infiltrated some of the most dangerous organizations in the world, outlaw motorcycle gangs and international drug cartels. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “I spent years sitting across from people who wouldn't hesitate to kill me if they knew who I really was,” Tyree said during a recent interview. “The stakes were always life or death. But the mission, to dismantle these organizations, was worth every risk.” He is the guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available for free on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most podcast platforms. Undercover Against Motorcycle Gangs Tyree's undercover work included working with outlaw motorcycle clubs, also known as “one-percenters.” These organizations often present themselves as brotherhoods of riders but, as the Department of Justice points out, many function as highly structured criminal enterprises. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . “The ‘Big Four' dominate the outlaw motorcycle scene,” Tyree explained. “These groups aren't just about bikes. They're about drugs, weapons, extortion, and serious violence. My job was to get inside and stay alive long enough to make a difference.” Police Under Cover Truths: Inside His DEA Career, Cartels, and Motorcycle Gangs. According to federal reports, there are more than 300 active motorcycle gangs in the U.S. Some operations are small, but others span hundreds of chapters worldwide, often working hand-in-hand with drug cartels. Cartels, Cash, and Money Laundering Tyree's assignments expanded beyond biker gangs. He went undercover as a drug dealer, then later as a money launderer, targeting powerful South American and Central American drug cartels. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. “These cartels are multinational corporations of crime,” he said. “Drugs, cash, money, violence, it's all part of their business model. They'll work with anyone who helps them move product or clean their dirty money.” Wikipedia describes cartels as alliances of independent drug lords who collaborate to dominate the illegal trade. Tyree saw firsthand how groups like the Sinaloa Cartel and Los Zetas waged bloody turf wars while smuggling narcotics across borders.

The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “One day I could be moving fake loads of cocaine, the next day I'd be laundering millions in cash,” he recalled. “The psychological toll was real. You don't just walk away from that without scars.” Shattering the Hollywood Myths Much of what the public knows about undercover work comes from movies and TV. Tyree insists that reality is far different. “One big myth is that agents have to use drugs to prove themselves,” he said. “That's absolutely false. If you do that, you compromise the case. There are ways around those tests of loyalty, and we were trained to handle them.” Another misconception is that undercover life is constant action. In truth, many investigations stretched over a year or more. “Paperwork was just as important as the undercover work,” Tyree explained. “Evidence, lab reports, case files, that's what puts people in prison.” The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. As for agents going “soft” on their targets? Tyree dismisses the idea. “You might build rapport, but you never forget who you're dealing with. These are people who thrive on violence and greed.” Police Under Cover Truths: Inside His DEA Career, Cartels, and Motorcycle Gangs. Even his own family didn't always know the full truth. “I kept a lot to myself,” he admitted. “Sometimes it was to protect them, sometimes just to keep them from worrying.” Battling Trauma, and Cancer The stress of living under a false identity, constantly under threat, took its toll. Tyree admits nervousness was a constant companion early on. “I had to learn techniques to stay calm, to stay focused,” he said. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. As his career wound down, Tyree faced a different kind of fight, cancer. “It was one of the toughest battles of my life, but the same resilience I built undercover helped me through it.” His Cancer diagnosis was the result of a dare and bet. He is a huge advocate for early and frequent health screenings. Police Under Cover Truths: Inside His DEA Career, Cartels, and Motorcycle Gangs. Life After the DEA Today, Tyree is retired from the DEA but far from finished with his mission. He serves as a Senior Advisor on Financial Crime Detection and Anti-Money Laundering with Valid8 Financial and is an instructor with the Association of Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialists. With 25 years of experience, he now uses his expertise to help financial institutions, government agencies, and law enforcement combat crime through Bank Secrecy Act, AML, KYC, and due diligence processes. Check out the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “Whether it was chasing cartels or building compliance systems, the goal has always been the same, protect people, protect society,” he said. Telling His Story Tyree now shares his story through interviews, news outlets, and guest appearances on podcasts like the Law Enforcement Talk Radio show and podcast, which is available for free on their website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and mroe. His recent feature, Police Under Cover Truths, pulls back the curtain on undercover operations, addressing both the myths and the realities of life in deep cover. Police Under Cover Truths: Inside His DEA Career, Cartels, and Motorcycle Gangs. He also connects with audiences check out the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, where he continues to educate others about the risks of organized crime and the importance of financial vigilance. “I don't glamorize what I did,” Tyree concluded. “It was dangerous, it was messy, and sometimes it was terrifying. But it was necessary. And if people can learn something from my career, whether it's about cartels, motorcycle gangs, or money laundering, then sharing these truths is worth it.” Be sure to check out our website .

Guest: Alex Smereczniak— Serial entrepreneur, former CEO of 2ULaundry & Laundry Lab (over $100M valuation, 118 franchises sold), founder of Franzy (30,000+ monthly users, $3M+ raised to help people buy “cash-flowing” businesses). Early Hustles & First Big Win: Started with classic entrepreneurial pursuits: trading cards, washing cars as a kid, and then running a laundry delivery business (“Wake Wash”) in college, which he bought for $30,000 and sold for nearly $300,000 after systematizing and scaling it. Learned about discounted cash flow, buy/sell agreements, and the real value of recurring cash flow and business structure early on. Scaling, Strategy, and Differentiation: Moved from a student business to working for a Big Four consulting firm (Ernst & Young), but quickly realized he needed to build businesses—not just advise them. Launched 2ULaundry in 2016: delivered laundry/dry cleaning to homes and businesses, quickly scaling through tech and operations, later vertically integrating by building brick-and-mortar laundromats with Electrolux, and ultimately franchising the model for rapid growth. Grew Laundry Lab to 118 franchise awards and 30 locations open as of 2025. Laundromats as a Business Model: Low failure rate due to essential, “recession proof” services—people always need clean clothes—combined with cash-flow and passive income advantages. The “Power Play”: Buy from retiring owners, retool equipment over time, tap into durable local demand. Challenges, Automation & Venture Backing: Success meant more than cash-flow: his companies required operational discipline, vertical integration, and large capital outlays (laundromat builds exceed $1M). Venture capital was attracted by the “Uber for Laundry” home-delivery angle, but Alex's model matured into a blend of tech, local infrastructure, and scalable franchising. Why Franchising Needs Disruption — Enter Franzy: Traditional franchise placement is “Wild West,” with brokers sometimes pocketing up to 60% of franchise fees, influencing which opportunities new entrepreneurs see. Franzy's mission: Take a “Zillow for Franchising” approach—leverage AI for franchise matching (across 4000+ brands), standardized fees, and transparency to empower more everyday people to buy real businesses. Focuses on each buyer's risk profile, lifestyle, and goals; not just “make the most money,” but “fit the best business to the person.” Franchise Trends & Business Models to Watch: Still bullish on laundromats for certain profiles (cash-flow, de-risked, lifestyle), but now sees huge growth in health & wellness, home services, and viral consumer brands (e.g. PopUp Bagels, HRT clinics, anything innovating with AI or “cult” followings). Anticipates continued “displacement” of white-collar jobs by AI; business ownership, franchising, and “betting on yourself” are the safest long-term play for income and autonomy.
