2. Heidi August Witnesses the Gaddafi Coup and CIA Restrictions on Marriage Liza Mundy Book: The Sisterhood: The Secret History of Women at the CIA The story moves to Heidi August, a college graduate and political science major hired by the CIA in 1969 as a GS-3 or GS-4 clerk-secretary. On her first posting in Tripoli, Libya, she displayed the necessary characteristic of a spy—the willingness to go out when hearing something dangerous. Heidi was the first American officer to recognize that Muammar Gaddafi was fomenting a coup, catching the male leadership of the station completely flatfooted. She, along with a friend, drove through gunfire to successfully "burn out" the station (opening safes and destroying classified files) using techniques learned only from a training video. Despite this bravery and competence, she remained a clerk. The agency culture at the time (before EEOC laws) explicitly required women serving overseas in a clandestine capacity not to marry or have children; they would be forced to resign if they did.

In this episode host Marc Goldberg interviews Clatsop Community College graduate Emily Bates, Clatsop Community College president, Jarrod Hogue, and the Director, Office of Community Colleges and Workforce Development (CCWD) at the Oregon Higher Education Coordinating Commission (HECC), Donna Lewelling.Emily shares more about her experience as a returning student at the college including her active involvement in student government helping build community for other students while developing valuable leadership skills. President Hogue reflects on Emily's interview and elaborates on the critical role the college plays in a rural community supporting workforce and economic development and the value and benefit of strong employer partnerships in that work.Director Lewelling discuses how Adult Basic Skills programs across Oregon community colleges ensure better access to pathways leading to good jobs and careers for more Oregonians through innovative career pathway programs like Integrated Education and Training (IET) and holistic student supports. The All In: Student Pathways Forward podcast is a part of Oregon's participation in the National Skills Coalition SkillSPAN network.

He attributes this to AI replacing jobs, declining college enrollment, and rising tuition costs, with student loan debt doubling to $1.7 trillion since Obama's nationalization. Markowski criticizes universities' focus on subsidies over outcomes, suggesting taxing their endowments or athletic revenues to reduce student loan balances, and warns of widespread hiring freezes fueling graduate frustration. www.watchdogonwallstreet.com

New polling from Scott Rasmussen reveals that America's elite 1%—those with high incomes, urban residences, and postgraduate degrees—are significantly out of step with the rest of the country on a range of issues.It's a troubling trend for America, and it doesn't bode well for our future considering the elite 1% occupy many of the leadership roles in our cultural, educational, and government institutions.There's perhaps no statistic more shocking than the 69% of politically obsessed elites who think it would be better if only people with college degrees could vote. By comparison, just 15% of all voters hold that view. (Rasmussen defines "politically obsessed" as elites who talk about politics every day.)Rasmussen's latest survey, conducted by RMG Research, asked other questions ranging from government censorship to gun ownership. On nearly every issue, there's a wide gulf between the ruling class and everyday Americans.You can learn more about work on the elite 1% by tuning into "The Scott Rasmussen Show," which airs Sunday at 10 a.m. ET on Merit Street Media. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

You don't have to race to financial independence to get there. Dave Meyer, VP of Market Intelligence at BiggerPockets, took his time building up passive income, and years later, it's what has allowed him to amass impressive wealth all while living abroad, working where he wants, and securing a very stable retirement. But Dave wasn't always some housing market genius who knew every statistic and metric about real estate investing. He started as a broke college student with no job prospects, struggling to pay his own rent. After graduating college during one of the worst recessions America had ever experienced, Dave was waiting tables to keep the lights on. He realized that he needed a different way to get ahead, and just getting a job wasn't going to be enough. So, even with no money, Dave convinced a few friends to buy a house together while he borrowed money for his share of the down payment. Dave managed the property, took the tenant phone calls, and did what he had to do to learn the real estate ropes. And…it worked! Now, a decade and a half later, Dave has an entire real estate portfolio of long-term and short-term rentals and passive income streams from syndication investments, but this all started with one small deal he took a chance on. Today, Dave shares every part of his story, from finding the first deal to moving abroad, pausing buying rentals, and why he's getting BACK in the game now and doing deals again! In This Episode We Cover How to invest in real estate even if you're starting from zero with NO money The power of house hacking and how this strategy can explode your real estate portfolio  Optimizing your portfolio and how to systematize your rentals so YOU don't do all the work Investing during a housing crash and why most Americans were running from rental properties  Passive investing through real estate syndications and the pros and cons of putting your money in one  Why Dave is finally getting back into the rental property game after years on the sidelines  And So Much More! (00:00) Intro (01:08) First Rental with NO Money (12:25) Optimizing His Portfolio (18:30) Investing During the Crash (19:46) Moving Abroad (21:45) Passive vs. Active Investments (30:59) Dave's Current Portfolio Check out more resources from this show on BiggerPockets.com and  https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-952 Interested in learning more about today's sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?
