On this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and Corey welcome Rupal Bhansali back to the show. Rupal is the founder, CEO, chief investment officer, and portfolio manager of investment adviser Double Duty Money Management. She's also the author of the book Non-Consensus Investing and a leading figure in value investing, with more than three decades of experience. Rupal kicks off the show by discussing her investment philosophy, how she defines "winning" in the stock market, the main misconception about contrarian investing, and why it's more important to not lose money in the market than to earn money. She warns investors that they can still lose money when investing in a high-quality company. As she says, the key to value investing is low downside. Rupal uses the auto industry as an example of a low-quality, cyclical industry, but highlights the hidden opportunity in tires, which are a consumer staple and not cyclical. (0:38) Next, Rupal talks about getting the best of both worlds with growth and value investing. She notes that this is very difficult to do today with U.S. stocks but that there are many untapped opportunities abroad – especially in Latin America. Rupal then delves into the world of diversification, including why having uncorrelated investment ideas in your portfolio is so crucial. This leads to a conversation about knowing when to buy more shares when one of your stocks is down versus cutting your losses and selling completely. Rupal outlines three core reasons to sell a stock, regardless of whether a stop loss was hit or not. (16:15) Finally, Rupal gives her opinion on buying companies like Costco Wholesale that have very high multiples but keep trading higher. She says the reward isn't worth the risk, since there are 49 non-Costcos for every Costco, and trying to find the one winner is very difficult. Rupal reiterates that it's all about cutting your losses early, accepting that you'll get things wrong, and learning from your mistakes. She also covers the wider macro environment relating to President Donald Trump's tariffs, clarifying that she's "macro aware" rather than "macro driven." (29:48)

On this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan and Corey welcome Mike Barrett back to the show. Mike is the editor of Select Value Opportunities and senior analyst for Extreme Value. He has decades of cash-flow modeling and valuation expertise that he uses to find underappreciated, high-quality growth stocks. Mike kicks things off by discussing President Donald Trump's tariffs, their implication in the context of broad market cycles, and a potential 2026 low. He explains that he believes stocks have limited upside from here because of extreme positive sentiment and rampant overvaluation. And because there's so much uncertainty, Mike advises investors to make sure they have high-quality businesses in their portfolios. He also points out that the most overvalued stocks today are the defensive ones, but that could change once the tariff situation eases. (1:47) Next, Mike breaks down his personal investing philosophy and why he uses macroeconomic factors to look ahead only a few weeks rather than longer term. He also talks about the importance of momentum, taking risks to find out what works best for you as an investor, Nvidia being undervalued today, one company he likes that offers a good way to compound your wealth, and the optionality baked into Sprouts Farmers Market thanks to the rising popularity of weight-loss drugs. (18:42) Finally, Mike discusses Costco Wholesale's fantastic business growth, the importance of finding companies that perform consistently well, his recommendation of Constellation Brands that earned a triple-digit return for subscribers, crypto, and generative AI.

He goes in depth on what he learned from Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger in the process of crafting his book, including understanding incentives, management turnover, and which macroeconomic factors are important. (1:46) Next, Alex talks about the "pointed" questions Buffett and Munger got during the dot-com era from shareholders who doubted their abilities. Then he breaks down his own investing style, how that style has evolved over the years, and how he got interested in investing in the first place.

(19:53) Finally, Alex delves further into the retail space. He discusses Costco Wholesale versus Walmart, the importance of retailers understanding their core customer base, why Dollar Tree is misunderstood, geographic retail strategies, President Donald Trump's tariffs, and a U.K.-based mixers company he finds attractive.

Dr. Don and Professor Ben talk about the risks from eating peaches from big open jar of canned peaches kept at room temperature. Dr. Don - not risky

Businesses should do well with reduced regulations going forward Reducing regulations saves companies both time and money and time is always money. Starting in 2025, it is expected that for every new regulation that goes on the books, 10 regulations must be eliminated. I was unaware of what is known as the congressional review where a new President along with Congress can undo certain rules that the previous administration put on the books in the last few months. At this time, we're not sure which ones will be eligible for elimination, but you will likely see some rules that perhaps made no sense to many people could be reversed in 2025. There could be a fight brewing between California and the federal government over some of these changes in regulations and California could lose their waiver and authority to ban the sale of new gasoline powered cars by 2035. The federal government wants control back over the auto industry, and does not want to allow states to come up with separate rules. That could ease pressure on both the auto companies and consumers as well. One that I'm not sure on is eliminating bank watchdogs like the FDIC. I like the idea of pulling back on the regulations, but maybe this is one that should be controlled not eliminated? Be prepared in 2025 for many changes in business, I believe most will be helpful.    History has proven in the recent past that tariffs can cause problems in the economy and the markets as well. We have talked for the past month or so that we have been lightening up on our investments, which does not mean we went to 100% cash but a more reasonable level of around 20% in cash and 80% invested. A big reason for this is I believe currently the markets are incorrectly ignoring what the potential tariffs will do in the short term. It was only about six years ago when we had tariffs and that caused disruption in supply chains and rising manufacturing costs along with declining profits for some corporations. Our trading partners did not simply give in to the demands. Looking at China in particular, in September 2019, an additional $113 billion of tariffs were imposed on top of roughly $50 billion of tariffs that were already in effect. Each time the tariffs were raised, there was retaliation from China. This began to cause wild swings in the stock and bond markets. It is important as well for investors to understand when tariffs were imposed in 2018, the economy was doing well. That was because of recent tax cuts that reduced the corporate income tax from 35% down to 21%, which was a 40% decline. Now in 2025 there are no big tax cuts that the economy and businesses are benefitting from, which could hurt corporate profits in the short term. There is a potential tax relief bill that must go through Congress, but that would not be felt by anyone until the summer or late fall of this year. No one knows for certain how long it takes tariffs to benefit the economy because last time the world and trade fell apart as Covid changed everything. So for now, we will just have to wait and see how long it will take before the United States sees a benefit to tariffs, which I do believe long-term they are a good thing. With some potential short-term headwinds from these trade conversations, I think it's important to not be overly aggressive with your portfolio and to make sure you're holding strong businesses with low valuations that do not rely heavily on overseas trade.   Liquor sales are declining and the bourbon boom seems to have passed It used to be investing in alcohol companies like Brown-Forman, who is famous for Jack Daniels, and other alcohol companies was a relatively safe investment over the long-term. But it appears that peoples liquor cabinets are still full from the Covid years when they over bought many types of booze for drinking at home and they still have a good amount of that alcohol left. No help to the industry is the anti- obesity drugs, the legal use of cannabis and some people switching to non-alcoholic drinks. The recent warning from the US Surgeon General recommending alcohol bottles should have a warning label on them about cancer could also hurt sales temporarily. We can't forget about the tariffs that are coming as this will likely be another heavy weight on alcohol and bourbon sales and profits. While writing about the decline in bourbon sales, I thought I would go to my bar to see if I had any bourbon to try. I took a shot of it and it burned all the way down. I personally don't know why Bourbon is so popular in the first place. With that said I guess maybe others are agreeing with me, US whiskey sales declined 1.2% in 2023, which was the first decline in 21 years. In the first nine months of 2024 there was additional drop of 4%. Your bigger distillers have the balance sheets to whether the storm, but your smaller craft distillery companies are beginning to close. I do believe this will probably change course maybe not in 2025, but perhaps come 2026 more distillers could quit the business, which will leave room for the big companies to pick up that slack and see their sales and profits increase.   What Really Matters when Getting a Mortgage When getting a mortgage, everyone's top priority is to get the best rate. However, it is equally as important to understand what it took to get that rate.  When you get a mortgage, there are origination costs called points that you can buy to reduce your mortgage rate.  In other words, you can buy down that rate for a cost, and this typically doesn't get analyzed correctly.  Let's consider an example using current market rates. For a well-qualified buyer, the par rate is about 6.75%, meaning there are no added point costs.  If the borrower wanted, they could pay a point, which costs 1% of the mortgage balance, in exchange for a lower rate of 6.375%.  On a $600k loan, this point would cost $6,000.  The question is, how long would it take for the interest savings from the lower rate to recoup the additional $6,000 point cost?  In this example assuming a 30-year mortgage, it would take almost 3 years.  That may not seem like a long time, but in the current interest rate environment, most experts agree that mortgage rates will be coming down at least slightly, especially within 3 years.  This means if you forgo paying the point and accept the higher rate and higher accompanying monthly payment, as long as you are able to refinancing into a lower rate within 3 years, you will come out ahead.  On the contrary by paying a point, you believe that right now mortgage rates are at their lowest point for the next 3 years, which is a strong stance to take.  I believe there will be opportunities to refinance into lower rates, meaning the overall cheapest way to structure a mortgage now is with a higher interest rate.  You can even take this a step further by accepting a rate above the par rate in exchange for credits from the lender that can be used to pay closing costs and some of the mortgage interest.  In our $600k mortgage example, taking a rate of 7.125% would come with approximately $7,500 of credits.  A rate of 7.125% might look expensive, but as long as you can refinance within 3 years, that rate option gives you the lowest overall cost of borrowing.   Companies Discussed: Costco Wholesale Corporation (COST), Oracle Corporation (ORCL), The Walt Disney Company (DIS) & General Dynamics Corporation (GD)

Hosts: Greg Skordas and Rusty Cannon Costco lovers, fear not — the new CFO has confirmed that the $1.50 hot dog deal isn’t going anywhere. It’s been around since the 1980s, and people have expressed great fear that the price may increase due to inflation. KSL at Night hosts Greg Skordas and Rusty Cannon finish off this busy show talking about their favorite traditions at Costco Wholesale.

Hosts: Greg Skordas and Rusty Cannon The day after Trump’s guilty conviction Now that Donald Trump has been found guilty on all 34 counts in the hush money trial, what’s next? Today, the former president announced that he will appeal on the grounds that he believes the judge and jury were corrupt. KSL at Night hosts Greg Skordas and Rusty Cannon talk about how the Trump campaign could use this conviction and appeal to bolster the campaign. Will the conviction change any voter’s minds? Will the country move on from this whole trial? Let’s talk about it. Jurors now deciding on sentencing for Chad Daybell It’s only been a day since Chad Daybell was found guilty of a triple murder. Now, the same jury is already deciding his fate, which could include the death penalty. KSL-TV reporter Lauren Steinbrecher is following the developments from Boise, and joins the program to give an update on this process. West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin announces that he’s leaving the Democratic Party It’s not completely surprising, but today, West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin announced that he would leave the Democratic Party and register as an Independent. Previously, he had said he wouldn’t run for reelection to the Senate, but does this change things? Could he be planning to run again for governor? The hosts speculate about his future. Meet Paul Miller, GOP candidate for Congressional District 1 This election cycle features a primary race in the Republican Party for Utah’s 1st Congressional District. Paul Miller is one of the GOP candidates and the winner at the state convention. He joins us in the studio to explain why he’s running for the seat and how he plans to make changes in Congress that will benefit the average Utahn. Changes to how the federal government imposes regulations could be coming The Supreme Court is currently deciding on an issue that could change how the federal government imposes regulations. For the last several decades, Congress hasn’t been required to approve rules from federal agencies thanks to the “Chevron deference doctrine.” That doctrine could soon be overturned by the Supreme Court. We discuss how Utah’s leaders feel about the situation. Home prices expected to rise again; property insurance rates rising too Buying a new home is hard to do with home prices being the way they are. But owning a home is expensive too, especially with rising property insurance premiums. The three states with the biggest rise in property insurance premiums this year? Texas, Arizona, and Utah. Steve Waldrip, Utah Senior Advisor for Housing Strategy and Innovation discusses the challenges with the hosts.

Costco Wholesale Corporation, Q1 2024 Earnings Call, Dec 14, 2023

Costco Wholesale's Q1 2024 earnings call, unedited

Swen Nater has one of the most unlikely paths to success. He was born in the Netherlands where he spent several years in orphanages. When he came to America as a boy, Swen fell in love with the game of basketball. Despite never playing in high school, he became an All-American at Cypress College, a two-time national champion at UCLA, and he played 12 years professionally. He is the only player in history to lead the ABA and NBA in rebounding. When Swen's playing days were over, he went on to coach Christian Heritage College to a national championship. In this interview, Swen talks about his difficult childhood and the journey that led him to play professional basketball. He shares the leadership lessons he learned from his legendary leader at UCLA – Coach John Wooden. Swen talks about Coach Wooden's approach to time management, giving feedback, discipline, conditioning, and the tremendous care he showed for his players. Swen finishes the interview by talking about the mentorship he received from Coach Wooden in the decades after playing at UCLA. Swen Nater still holds the California Community College single game rebound record at 39. After becoming a community college All-American, Swen played for two undefeated, national championship teams at UCLA. He went on to become the ABA Rookie of the Year, a two-time All Star, and led the league in rebounds and field goal percentage. When he jumped to the NBA, Swen led the league in rebounds, becoming the only player in history win both the ABA and NBA rebounding titles. After playing basketball, Swen Nater became athletic director and head coach at Christian Heritage College where he led the Hawks to a national small college championship. Swen is author of five books including "You Haven't Taught Until They Have Learned.” Swen has been inducted into the Orange County Hall of Fame and The San Diego Hall of Champions Hall of Fame. Swen is currently a buyer for Costco Wholesale.

Nobody likes being accused of theft. That includes people who are actually thieves, but their feelings aren't all that important since they're actually stealing,The problem — and it's a big one — is that many of the ways retailers fight theft make honest customers feel like criminals. That starts with small things like Walmart (WMT) - Get Free Report and Costco Wholesale  (COST) - Get Free Report employees checking your receipts when you leave their stores. Yes, they do it to everyone, but it's still not a pleasant feeling for honest folks worried that they may have missed or improperly scanned an item at self-checkout. It gets uglier, however, when companies use sneaker techniques to cut down theft, specifically at self-checkout.In Walmart's case, the retailer has technology that allows a store associate to shut off a self-checkout. The worker is not supposed to tell the customer that they're suspected of theft. Instead, the worker is to pretend that it's a technical problem.That's a strategy that inconveniences honest people and creates a grey area. Did the person steal a can of soup or did it just not scan?    Support the show

Welcome to another insightful episode of Building the Premier Accounting Firm, hosted by Roger Knecht. In this episode, Roger engages in a thought-provoking conversation with the guest, Mike Every, COO & co-founder at FilmLaab, as they delve into the crucial aspects of leadership, mission statements, and effective financial management. Mike shares his expertise as he emphasizes the significance of establishing clear accounts receivable processes within a business. He underscores the importance of not only getting paid for products and services rendered but also reducing the need to write off unpaid bills that may end up in collections. One of the key takeaways from the conversation is the importance of identifying the right person within a client's organization who handles bill payments. Mike highlights that many times, the person you're initially in contact with might not be the one responsible for this crucial task. This underscores the importance of clear communication and direct interaction with the decision-maker. Mike stresses the value of setting clear payment terms right from the outset. He discusses the significance of specifying deposit amounts and due dates in contracts, allowing clients to budget effectively and avoid unexpected invoices that can strain their finances. Roger and Mike also have a discussion on mission statements and leadership. Mike shares his insights on the need for companies to have a clear and compelling mission statement. He believes that every leader should not only know but also wholeheartedly believe in their organization's mission. Without this clarity of purpose, leadership becomes challenging, and organizational goals may become unclear. This podcast episode also touches on the art of asking the right questions. Mike emphasizes creating a safe and open environment for employees and clients to engage in meaningful dialogue. This approach allows for the collaborative generation of solutions and fosters an atmosphere of trust and innovation. This episode provides valuable insights into leadership, mission statements, and financial management.

In Episode 2 of Szn 5, we discuss Costco Wholesale wine brand, Kirkland Signature. All of these wines were under $8.00 and ALL were tasty.

Today, along with a special guest, we are reviewing: Kirkland Signatures: Asolo Prosecco, Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc, and Bordeaux Supérieur

In the spirit of spirit month, we're starting out with a well-deserved bang. Let's talk about the liquor that comes in hot, and leaves us even hotter – sizzling with a well-paletted spice on the tip of our tongue and a soothing warmth in our bellies. I'm talking about tequila, baby. The tip of the iceberg in the Mexican spirits world. Some of the best are distributed right from San Diego. In fact, Happy Half Hour brings on an old friend who's expanded his company's rotation since his last feature in 2020. CEO Gaston Martinez of IZO Spirits saw his one stop mezcal leave people craving more from his Durango-based distillery and heart grown message captured in every bottle. Following its launch, backed by seasoned marketing executive and co-founder Linda Belzberg three years ago, Gaston knew they were destined for greatness – expansion. After curating a mezcal that was consumed on a hypnotic level, yet still competed for space with larger moguls, IZO had to change the game in order to keep up. Here are a couple of updates on IZO since they were here with us last. Soon after its initial debut, their mezcal made its way into the bulky hands of Costco Wholesale, where it reached its biggest audience and gave the team the leg room needed to create other lines of spirits. Their most recent venture: a sotol that takes 15 years to harvest from the plant. Gaston takes pride when describing the sustainable and old world traditions they use to grow and ferment their sotol, as well as all of their other batches. He brings a little piece of home into every step of the process, capping it off with an onyx stone topper mined and shaped straight from Durango, Mexico. “Durango is kind of a small town, but I want to bring it to the world,” he says. The evolving brand continues to stride up the ranks by collaborating with Cut Water, who uses IZO mezcal in its canned cocktails distributed around the world. With Valentine's Day just around the corner, you can find IZO's latest product, Sotol, in the sweet and tangy “IZO Cupid” at George's at the Cove right on La Jolla shores. To match Happy Half Hour's prestigious guest, the hosts stroll downtown for an inside look into where all the magic happens. Recorded right from hypnotic lounge, David and Troy explore the Prestige-Magic Lounge & Showroom – the fifth of Mystique Venues's fine dining locations bringing some of the best local and touring magicians in the country to the stage. Leading the kitchen is Executive Chef Johnny Hornibrook who has been with Mystique since its first opening in Folsom, California with founder Terry Commons. The three course menu illuminates Johnny's experience on the road traveling around the country and Central America. While surfing couches and hitchhiking his way back to San Diego over the course of 28 days and 88 car rides, he asked, “What can I bring to the table?” to pay them back. Literally. The Stockton local brought home flavors from his adventures serving his Latin American patrons and incorporates them into his seasonal menus. The chef's pick at Prestige is the au jus prime rib with a trio of tangy horseradish. If dinner and an enchanting show sound good to you right now, Prestige is giving out a couple of promos voiced in this week's episode to check out. In “Two People, Fifty Bucks,” David felt like Italian comfort food on a cold and rainy San Diego day. He visited Princess Pub in Little Italy for a cottage pie doused in a creamy gravy for the soul. Troy's pick reminisced on a SD Mag current favorite: IZOLA bakery. Just anything from there. The baked goods are. All. So Mesmerizing.

Costco is one of the world's largest retailers, featuring warehouses and club memberships in eleven countries around the world. It is famous as a true pricing leader while delivering exceptional quality for its members, as well as “endless aisles” of both commodity products and unexpected “treasures” for members in their stores. Listen to hear the story of this incredibly successful business, as shared by Robin Ross, the Assistant Vice President of Corporate Marketing & Membership at Costco Wholesale in the United States. Robin shares Costco's approach to driving customer loyalty as a mindset, and how mutually beneficial relationships have also been essential to consistently achieving such a profitable business for over 40 years.

On today's show we are talking about what impacting labor markets and how that can affect real estate. In the food and beverage industry we're seeing a massive shortage of workers. The question is, where did they all go? We saw in the most recent statistics for the past month a trend that has been underway for much of the past six months. In November, the US enterprise employment report shows that 263,000 new jobs were created and that unemployment remains at a low 3.7%. A large percentage of jobs hired were in the travel, leisure and hospitality industry. What does that mean? It means hotel staff, restaurant staff, retail staff, flight attendants have been hired in record numbers. While we have seen major job losses in the tech sector at with 10,000 google, 11,000 at Facebook, Twitter of course, and major layoffs at Amazon. In the past week alone some of the more notable announcements have been layoffs of 400 people at reverse mortgage funding, 1500 at H&M, Doordash, 1250, Global Foundries 800, Wireless Advocate, up to 1800 inside Costco Wholesale stores, Morgan Stanley, 1600, Blue Apron Holdings, 10% of corporate workforce. Intel corporation let go 300, 100 at corporate headquarters and 200 in Santa Clara. Hewlett Packard is expected to lay off 4000-6000. I've only listed a handful of more notable layoff announcements in the past week. There are certainly many, many more. But frankly, having me list layoffs for five minutes will get boring. I think you get the point. So are these people showing up as unemployed? Well no, they're not. Almost all of these will have received a severance package and they won't appear on the unemployment rolls for months. Many of the job losses are higher paying corporate jobs. Some of the job losses are in retail with H&M and Wireless Advocate. But most are high paying white collar jobs. The hiring is also happening in ways for restaurants to stay in business. We spoke with a hotel owner this week who said that applicants for the role of dishwasher in the hotel kitchen were asking for $30 per hour. ------------- Host: Victor Menasce email: podcast@victorjm.com

"Eine Marke misst man an Beliebtheit und Bekanntheitsgrad", so Martin Fischbach von Albrech & Cie. "Für uns steht im Vordergrund, wie sich ein Markenwert verändert."

Kim Lewis is the Owner and Founder of the award-winning winery, Ole' Orleans Wines. Known as the "heart and soul" of the company, Kim infused the creole and cajun roots of New Orleans to create a collection of well-balanced wines that are perfect for any occasion. What started as a dream has now become one of the fastest-growing black-owned wineries in the south. Ole' Orleans has a vast collection of wines, 12 of which have been featured on the shelves of major retailers such as Trader Joe's and Costco Wholesale. Most recently, the winery was named a 2022 Rodeo Uncorked! three-time medalist. As a New Orleans native, Kim embraces everything that is "Naturally Nawlins" and continues to show her love for the city, its people, and its rich history. In this episode… Kim Lewis is making history with her brand, Ole' Orleans Wines. It's a woman and minority-owned business and the first-ever winery in New Orleans. So how did Kim launch her brand and generate massive success? Embedded in community and culture, Ole' Orleans Wines has found a home in the hearts of local and national consumers alike. Founded in 2018, the winery stemmed from Kim's passion to honor historic moments and historic sites in the city.

Today's episode is all about operations technology (OT). Guests James Snook and Doug Sparkes join us to discuss the role operations technology plays in a company's success and advancement. How does IT play a role in the implementation and maintenance of these operations technologies? In this episode, we also talk about five key myths and realities of integrating new operations technologies into a business.  Join us as we discuss how businesses can use OT to achieve critical business, operational, and sustainability objectives.   IN THIS EPISODE:  [03:10] What is OT, how is it different than IT, and how does it play a role in improving operations? [05:30] The key myths and realities of using IoT as it relates to operations technology. [12:47] Goals to consider when proposing a new IoT strategy.   [15:54] What role does NuOz play in IoT and OT systems?   [21:00] What are some key trends in the integration of business, operations, and sustainability?   KEY TAKEAWAYS:  With so many companies deploying IoT devices in their facilities, IT teams are under a lot of pressure to simply add these devices to the network. However, they are also challenged to maintain the security and performance of the network.     Implementing smart technology in a retail setting is not as simple as it sounds.  It requires smart training to complement the smart technology, which should be easy to understand and integrate into the day-to-day operations.   NuOz specializes in infrastructure and security needs from IoT and OT systems. OT systems have unique standards, languages, and protocols. NuOz is focused on implementing and harmonizing these systems in a very secure manner so businesses can connect systems and manage their data.    LINKS MENTIONED: www.nuoz.com www.telaid.com bbergmann@telaid.com info@telaid.com   BIO: James Snook, NuOz Retail Leadership 24 years in retail technology leadership, including 22 years with Starbucks, 10 Years of consulting & investing, serving on boards for social & environmental impact.  Father of 4 sons native in cryptos and blockchains and a professional goat wrangler.   Doug is a retail operations veteran with 37 years of experience in energy management at Costco Wholesale.

Some people devote their lives to living healthy. That was the case for Liza’s guest, Deborah Herlax Enos. Deborah is a certified nutritionist and has been in the healthcare industry for over 30 years, so she was the last person you’d expect to be diagnosed with breast cancer. Through Deborah’s journey, Liza served as her cancer mentor and the two reflect on how the experience changes women and what Deborah is most grateful for today. First, she stopped being a lifelong people-pleaser and discusses the distinction between being a peacekeeper and a peacemaker. A peacemaker can sometimes ruffle feathers, but comes from a place of empowerment and also stems from love. Moreover, Deborah re-learned how to authentically love herself, instead of loving the idea of what people think of her. You do not need a cancer diagnosis to self-heal and find self-love.

Earlier this week, we dropped a podcast episode that reviewed what's new in, and what's coming to, College Station. (Spoiler: It's a lot!) During that episode, we teased an announcement that was expected later in the month -- a development on 19 acres of city-owned land in College Station's Midtown. Turns out later in the month is now: Costco Wholesale has filed a site plan for that location. We hope you'll take just a few minutes to listen to our brand-new mini-episode that explains what Costco's site plan filing means -- and what it doesn't mean just yet.

Against all odds, Swen never quit believing in his dream of playing in the NBA. I hope you enjoy Swen's inspiring message about believing, putting in the work, and focusing on dreams we want to achieve. He even shares some dark times as he discusses the death of his daughter and living in being physically and verbally abused by his Step Dad. This is a powerful message, I hope you enjoy! Born in the Netherlands, Swen Nater immigrated to the United States at age nine through a series of events that ended on the Hollywood stage where Swen and his sister, Renee, were reunited with their parents and little brother, Ibo, on national television. Swen had never seen a basketball until he came to the US. As a junior in high school and the second-tallest student in the school at 6'4”, Swen tried out for the basketball team and was cut. He didn't try out as a senior. Grown to 6'9 and attending Cypress College, California, Swen again attempted to make the team and this time he was successful. However, he didn't play much his freshman year. But, after a lot of hard off-season work, Swen became a Community College All America, player of the conference, leading rebounder in the state setting a record of 39 (still a California record) in one game, and numerous other honors, the greatest of which was a scholarship offer to UCLA where John Wooden was head coach and they had already won six national championships. While with the Bruins, Swen played behind the great Bill Walton and saw limited playing time, two minutes per game. However, impressive performances at the Olympic trials and the Pizza Hut All Star Game resulted in Swen becoming the only player ever to have not started a college game and yet be drafted in the first round of the NBA. Swen chose the ABA, became Rookie of the Year, a two-time all star, and led the league in field goal percentage and rebounding. After three seasons, the ABA merged into the NBA and he jumped to the Milwaukee Bucks where he set an all-time record (still standing) for defensive rebounds in half a game at 18. He also pulled down 33 rebounds that game, still a Milwaukee Bucks record, and scored 30 points. That put him into the NBA's “30-30 Club,” in which there are only six members. Swen was traded to the Buffalo Braves for the first pick in the draft. After a year, the Braves moved to San Diego and became the Clippers where Swen led the NBA in rebounds and set the team record for double-doubles (double-digit point and rebounds in the same game) in a season. Swen is the only player that led both the ABA and NBA in rebounding. When traded to the Los Angeles Lakers, Swen backed up Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and the team played in the NBA finals against the Celtics. After his basketball career, Swen Nater became head basketball coach at San Diego Christian College where he led his team to the NCCAA national championship. Next, he took a management position at the corporate office of Costco Wholesale in Washington Swen Nater knows how to personally connect with an audience. Through humor, wit, poetry, and personal stories, Swen motivates, encourages, and empowers others to fully realize their potential. If you want the very best for your team, Swen is the ticket. ​Swen is married to Wendy Ghiora, has two daughters, and proud “Papa” to two grandsons. Oh, yes, another grandchild is on the way.  Swen, thank you for joining me and sharing your message with us. You are an amazing man and I wish you and your family all the best possible! If you are interested in hiring Swen to speak to your company, association, etc... Please visit his website to learn more. Also he has authored several books that you can locate on his site as well. https://www.swennater.me/home.html

The past few months have seen supermarkets and other grocery retailers implement multi-pronged strategies to protect customers and employees from COVID-19. But what do shoppers think of retailers’ efforts, and how well are stores adhering to these safety steps? Global market research firm Ipsos aims to help answer those questions with the Consumer Health & Safety Index, a new benchmarking tool to evaluate how retailers across seven sectors — including grocery — are operating during the coronavirus pandemic. The study includes a poll of 2,000 U.S. shoppers to find out which COVID-19 safety practices they deem most important, followed by “mystery” shopping trips at thousands of stores across 45 major U.S. brands to gauge compliance with health and safety measures. Nick Mercurio, executive vice president and service line head of U.S. channel performance at Ipsos, told Supermarket News in a podcast that grocery rated highest among retail sectors in coronavirus health and safety. Whole Foods Market, Costco Wholesale and Trader Joe’s were the top overall retail performers. “These three brands clearly outperformed among the 45 brands across the seven industries by a significant margin. In fact, grocery was the highest-performing industry in total, when you look at the composite scores for the index and also the individual behaviors,” Mercurio explained. “Across all of the brands, grocery represented three of the top five and seven of the top 10 [performers]. Brands that sell food — including clubs and big-box stores — were among the top 10 performers, really head and shoulders above the other industries.” Also rated highly were Walmart, Aldi, Publix, Sam’s Club, Safeway, Target and Albertsons. Other grocery retailers examined included Giant Eagle, Stop & Shop, BJ’s Wholesale Club and dollar stores, all of which also performed well. “Across the board, there was consistency and high performance from grocery retailers,” Mercurio said. Still, among all the retail sectors studied by Ipsos, there’s room for improvement in COVID-19 health and safety, particularly when individual store locations and different geographies are taken into account, he noted. For example, the “mystery shops” uncovered shortfalls in employees wearing face coverings and/or gloves, availability of hand sanitizer or handwashing solutions, plexiglass shields at checkout lanes, staff actively cleaning areas of the store, and shopper capacity limits in stores. Why does this matter? Ipsos found that 61% of consumers are still delaying returning to brick-and-mortar stores on a regular basis for fear of catching the virus. “In the research we conducted, 62% of shoppers said they would stop shopping at a retailer if they were not taking health and safety seriously. So there’s a really high potential defection rate and very little margin for error if you don’t get it right,” Mercurio said. “But if you do, there’s definitely a chance to not only grow your market share, but also your share of wallet and profitability.”

Wall Street analysts predicted the demise of Costco Wholesale not that long ago, believing it had no chance against Amazon. But Costco and Sam’s Club are doing well. In fact Costco is booming. People willingly pay membership fees. The Krazy Coupon Lady reports that consistently across items, Costco and Sam’s Club are 10 to 15% cheaper than Amazon. Many use both warehouse clubs and Amazon. Though Costco offers savings, they also offer temptation to buy more. Clark’s answer: Not cart. Hands only shopping limits the purchase and preserves the savings. Outstanding credit card debt has gone up roughly 50% in the last 8 years in the U.S. A Wallethub survey reports more than a third of card users have maxed out their credit cards. Another third are afraid of doing so. This is NOT good for your long term financial health. The average card carries an interest rate of 16 – 18%. Buying on credit when you can pay the bill in full monthly is great. But maxing out your credit card costs you big in interest and demolishes your credit score. Seriously think this through before you pull out a credit card and charge it. Clark reported on his experience going from a professional home burglar alarm to a self-install system. Clark chose Ring and took 3 hours to install it. Monitoring works out to $8 a month when paid annually. Feedback centered on privacy issues with Ring, owned by Amazon. Back to the drawing board. Independent alternatives are getting good reviews. Google’s Nest and Simplisafe charge around $300 a year for monitoring. Kangaroo - Kangaroo Home Security | Simple and affordable alarms and sensors rotates specials and like Ring, costs around $100 a year for monitoring. Kangaroo’s equipment is comparable, but independent from giant ecosystems. TechHive reviews Minut Smart Home Alarm - a very different system using heat technology. Instead of arming the doors and windows, it senses intruders to trigger the alarm. Minut monitoring is $8 a month, sold around the world – quick and easy to install. Technology is a big disrupter in this industry. Traditional systems have high equipment and monitoring costs and often come with contracts you should never sign.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Traditional supermarkets are experiencing a resurgence as a preferred destination for grocery shoppers, Jose Gomes, North America president for dunnhumby, said in an SN Off the Shelf podcast. Dunnhumby recently released its third annual U.S. Grocery Retailer Preference Index (RPI). The study by the global customer data science firm, whose U.S. office is in Chicago, examined the 60 largest retailers in the $700 billion U.S. grocery market to identify which ones have the strongest combination of consumer emotional sentiment and financial performance. This year, H-E-B came in at No. 1, toppling Trader Joe’s, which dipped to No. 2 after finishing first the previous two years. Market Basket cracked the top five, coming in at No. 4 and pushing last year’s second-place finisher Costco Wholesale to No. 6. Amazon (No. 3) and Wegmans Foods Markets (No. 5) held onto their spots from a year ago. Rounding out the grocery retailers in the top quartile of the 2020 RPI were Aldi (No. 7), Sam’s Club (No. 8), Walmart (No. 9), Publix Super Markets (No. 10), WinCo Foods (No. 11), Fresh Thyme Farmers Market (No. 12), Sprouts Farmers Markets (No. 13) and ShopRite (No. 14). Lowes Foods saw the biggest year-over-year gain, climbing to No. 26 from No. 31. Dunnhumby’s research focuses on seven “pillars” shaping the consumer emotional connection to a grocery retailer and its financial performance: price, quality, digital, operations, convenience, discounts/rewards and speed. The RPI stands out from other retailer rankings because it rates companies on a composite of financial success, emotional bond and performance on customer preferences.

He was the ABA Rookie of the Year in 1974 and went on to a long career in the ABA and the NBA. After his playing days, Swen taught at Christian Heritage College while also serving as the school’s athletic director and men’s basketball coach from 1985 to 1995. In addition to writing and speaking frequently, Swen is a business professional with Costco Wholesale. Swen and Coach Wooden are co-authors of John Wooden’s UCLA Offense (2005). Swen is also the co-author of You Haven’t Taught Until They Have Learned, John Wooden’s Teaching Principles and Practices (2006), Pete Newell’s Playing Big (2007), and The Complete Handbook of Rebounding (1996).

Do you ever worry that you're charging too much for your services? If you're like most of my Creative Warriors, you do. So many times creatives lack self-worth. They discount themselves so much, that in the end even their clients don't value them as much as they should. Instead of acting like an item on the clothing rack of Walmart, think of yourself as a limited edition item at Louis Vuitton. You're not meant for everyone. You're special. You're Unique. You're worth top dollar. In the end, you want to find that perfect client. The one that you really connect with. It's ok to pass on some clients, and charge premium for your unique skill sets. There's only one you, and as long as you are delivering on quality, you should never be on sale. Instead of trying to focus on getting as many clients as you can, focus on getting your ideal clients. Find the ones that respect and appreciate your work so much that they are willing to spend the extra money. Look at it like this, at the end of the day you need $10. Would you rather spread yourself thin and hustle with 10 clients for $1 each, or dedicate yourself to providing the best service you can for one client at $10? To go further into this I brought on someone who knows about finding your true value, and selling yourself to the clients you deserve: Michelle Weinstein. Michelle has the unique ability to help you immediately identify business strengths to create a unique plan of action. More importantly, she helps you zero-in on the hidden trip wires that keep you from achieving your financial dreams. She has knocked down the doors and impressed CEO's at many billion dollar companies. Her relentless pursuit towards buyers at Costco Wholesale earned her coveted shelf space that also led to national deals with The Vitamin Shoppe. As a result of amazing relationships and opportunities, Michelle has honed a unique skill set that will help you develop the most important and valuable relationships.

WARRIOR OF URSULA “When you miss the boat on your worth, that's when sales is really a struggle.” - Michelle Weinstein  My book, LINGO: Discover Your Ideal Customer's Secret Language and Make Your Business Irresistible is now available! Highlights - Sales is connected with self-worth. A lot of self-worth stems from our past. Try to give your all to one person instead of discounting to many. It only takes a few tweaks in your business to make you unique. Come up with boundaries that you stick to no matter what. You have to understand your ideal client's problem to a T. Each client needs to have an equal opportunity. Let your clients do most of the talking. Be as flexible as you can for your clients. Your No's should follow the same 80/20 rule as your income.
