Trigger the We Pay: How a Sworn Proof of Loss Changes Everything https://www.publicadjusterbootcamp.com/   Recorded live at the SRC Summit, this conversation brings together Attorney Shaun Hodge and Public Insurance Adjusters Cal and Melanie Spoon for a blunt, practitioner level breakdown of what actually moves an insurance claim from "stuck" to "resolved." Their core message is simple: most delays, denials, and "frivolous" lawsuits trace back to one root problem, incomplete performance of the policy's Duties After a Loss. When the claim file is built correctly and the Sworn Proof of Loss (SPOL) is submitted as a true package, it triggers the carrier's obligations under the We Pay section, starts real statutory timelines, and forces a decision. From there, the path is clean: pay and close, or breach and face consequences. Expect practical guidance on documentation, process discipline, when to go legal, how to preserve leverage, and why so many professionals unknowingly give the carrier extra time, extra control, and extra "float." Speakers Shaun Hodge: Policyholder Attorney focused on insurance claim litigation and pre suit strategy. Cal Spoon: Public Insurance Adjuster and educator focused on building defensible claim files and contract compliance. Melanie Spoon: Public Insurance Adjuster and operator known for process, documentation standards, and clean file systems that hold up under scrutiny. What You Will Learn Why education is the real separator in claims handling, not influence, hype, or "industry talk." How the SPOL is the carrier's kryptonite because it triggers the first step toward the We Pay obligation. Why the "proof of loss" is not a single page, it is a complete package built from the Duties After a Loss. Why bad faith verdicts are rare, and how most cases never qualify because the policy conditions were not fully met. What the 60 day pre suit notice really does, and how it can become both a delay tool and a leverage point depending on file quality. How to treat the claim like a relay race, where PAs run their lap, then hand off cleanly to counsel at the right moment. Why documentation must be business record quality, not memory, not verbal, not "I remember he said." How supplements and amended SPOL submissions affect timelines, and what does and does not restart the clock. How DRP and managed repair programs should be evaluated against one standard: does it match the SPOL scope and restore pre loss condition. Why appraisal often becomes a "baseball bat" when the dispute is really scope or coverage, not price. The debate around PA fees, historical context, and why they argue it should be treated like other required experts. Key Topics Covered 1) Stop making the contract "gray" The speakers argue the policy is far less confusing than people assume, but it becomes gray when professionals do not follow the Duties After a Loss with precision. 2) The We Pay section is not a suggestion Until the insured's side fulfills the conditions, the carrier can treat payment like a "gimme." Once conditions are met, it becomes obligation. 3) SPOL as leverage, not paperwork They frame the SPOL as the trigger that changes the carrier's risk assessment, shifting you from "low threat" to "this file is dangerous." 4) Why attorneys end up doing adjusting work When a file reaches counsel without proper performance, the attorney spends the pre suit period doing the Duties After a Loss for the first time, which weakens bad faith potential and delays progress. 5) Documentation that survives depositions Contemporaneous field notes, follow up emails, consistent templates, and repeatable process create business records that are admissible and defensible. 6) Timing: do not hand off too early or too late They push a practical expectation that many residential claims should be positioned for resolution or litigation within roughly 60 to 90 days, depending on complexity. 7) Float, delays, and why time is money They explain how carriers benefit when claims linger, and why fast, compliant performance forces either closure or escalation. 8) Engineering reports, rebuttals, and control If a carrier produces a report, you rebut it with specificity and speed. If you do not call out the issues in writing, the carrier later argues they were never given the chance to correct it. 9) Complaints with teeth A complaint should be tied to a clear violation of statute or required timelines, supported by evidence, and copied appropriately including the insured. Memorable Lines and Ideas "You will never force the We Pay section until you perform the Duties After a Loss." "The proof of loss is a package." "Build every file like it's going to war, then hope for peace." "Do not make the attorney become an adjuster. Let the attorney do attorney things." Practical Takeaways You Can Apply Immediately Treat the SPOL as a complete package, not a summary sheet. Run a repeatable process on every claim, no shortcuts, no "this one is different." Memorialize key conversations in writing quickly. Non response often becomes meaningful. Rebut engineer opinions with policy grounded logic and factual corrections, not emotion. Hand off to counsel only when the file is ripe for litigation, not when it is messy. Keep the insured informed early so depositions do not produce surprise, shock, or confusion. Resources Mentioned The concept of insurance "float" often discussed by Warren Buffett. Policy language: Duties After a Loss and We Pay conditions. Industry discussion: managed repair and DRP style programs, appraisal strategy, and statutory timing rules. Disclaimer This episode is for education and discussion only. It is not legal advice. Laws and policy language vary by state and by carrier form. Consult qualified counsel for guidance on any specific claim.

This episode explores how bootstrapping shapes financial discipline, hiring pace, experimentation, and culture in a distributed environment. It looks at what long-term remote operations require in practice, from deliberate culture-building to asynchronous coordination across time zones, and what that means for remote knowledge workers inside a global software business.https://www.linkedin.com/in/remoteworklife/https://remoteworklife.ioLooking for Remote Work?Click here remoteworklife.io to access a private beta list of remote jobs in sales, marketing, and strategy — plus get podcasts, real-world tips and business insights from founders, CEOs, and remote leaders. subscribe to my free newsletter Connect on LinkedIn

For decades, the biggest barrier to building a SaaS company was technical talent. You needed a team of engineers to ship a world-class product. David Okuniev, Co-Founder of Typeform, believes that era is over. In this episode of the ProductLed 100 series, Wes Bush sits down with David Okuniev (Founder of Float) and Esben Friis-Jensen (Co-Founder of Userflow) to discuss why "Taste" is the only defensible moat left in the age of AI. David reveals how he is building his new venture, Supercut, by literally talking to Claude Code through a microphone - building full iOS apps in days without knowing Swift. He argues that since AI has commoditized the "How" of building software, the "What" and "Why" (Design and Taste) matter more than ever. They also explore why this shift allows for a "Minimum Viable Team" of just three people, why David regrets scaling Typeform into a large organization, and how to survive as a "Pioneer" founder without getting bogged down by professional management. Key Highlights: 01:21: The "Accidental" Origin: How a client project for a toilet showroom in Barcelona turned into Typeform.03:51: The Viral Launch: Generating 8,000 pre-signups and achieving immediate viral growth without traditional validation.09:53: The Taste Differentiator: Why design is the only way to distinguish yourself 13:00: The "Impulsive" Archetype: David's approach to building products based on intuition rather than validation.21:41: The "Professional CEO" Trap: Why David regrets stepping down and why founders should stay in the driver's seat.37:42: The Float Labs Model: How David runs a product lab to spin out new companies (like Supercut).42:09: The Minimum Viable Team: Why the modern startup only needs a Designer, a Tech Lead, and a Marketer.44:53: The "Tastemaker" Advice: You don't need to be a designer; you just need to be opinionated.

Stewart Alsop interviews Tomas Yu, CEO and founder of Turn-On Financial Technologies, on this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast. They explore how Yu's company is revolutionizing the closed-loop payment ecosystem by creating a universal float system that allows gift card credits to be used across multiple merchants rather than being locked to a single business like Starbucks. The conversation covers the complexities of fintech regulation, the differences between open and closed loop payment systems, and Yu's unique background that combines Korean martial arts discipline with Mexican polo culture. They also dive into Yu's passion for polo, discussing the intimate relationship between rider and horse, the sport's elitist tendencies in different regions, and his efforts to build polo communities from El Paso to New Mexico.

Turn-On Technologies is revolutionizing payment systems through behavioral finance by creating a decentralized "float" system. Unlike traditional gift cards that lock customers into single merchants like Starbucks, Turn-On allows universal credit that works across their entire merchant ecosystem. This addresses the massive gift card market where companies like Starbucks hold billions in customer funds that can only be used at their locations.2. The financial industry operates on an exclusionary "closed loop" versus "open loop" system that creates significant friction and fees. Closed loop systems keep money within specific ecosystems without conversion to cash, while open loop systems allow cash withdrawal but trigger heavy regulation. Every transaction through traditional payment processors like Stripe can cost merchants 3-8% in fees, representing a massive burden on businesses.3. Point-of-sale systems function as the financial bloodstream and credit scoring mechanism for businesses. These systems track all card transactions and serve as the primary data source for merchant lending decisions. The gap between POS records and bank deposits reveals cash transactions that businesses may not be reporting, making POS data crucial for assessing business creditworthiness and loan risk.4. Traditional FinTech professionals often miss obvious opportunities due to ego and institutional thinking. Yu encountered resistance from established FinTech experts who initially dismissed his gift card-focused approach, despite the trillion-dollar market size. The financial industry's complexity is sometimes artificially maintained to exclude outsiders rather than serve genuine regulatory purposes.5. The information age is creating a fundamental divide between curious, resourceful individuals and those stuck in credentialist systems. With AI and LLMs amplifying human capability, people who ask the right questions and maintain curiosity will become exponentially more effective. Meanwhile, those relying on traditional credentials without underlying curiosity will fall further behind, creating unprecedented economic and social divergence.6. Polo serves as a powerful business metaphor and relationship-building tool that mirrors modern entrepreneurial challenges. Like mixed martial arts evolved from testing individual disciplines, business success now requires being competent across multiple areas rather than excelling in just one specialty. The sport also creates unique networking opportunities and teaches valuable lessons about partnership between human and animal.7. International financial systems reveal how governments use complexity and capital controls to maintain power over citizens. Yu's observations about Argentina's financial restrictions and the prevalence of cash economies in Latin America illustrate how regulatory complexity often serves political rather than protective purposes, creating opportunities for alternative financial systems that provide genuine value to users.

For decades, the biggest barrier to building a SaaS company was technical talent. You needed a team of engineers to ship a world-class product. David Okuniev, Co-Founder of Typeform, believes that era is over. In this episode of the ProductLed 100 series, Wes Bush sits down with David Okuniev (Founder of Float) and Esben Friis-Jensen (Co-Founder of Userflow) to discuss why "Taste" is the only defensible moat left in the age of AI. David reveals how he is building his new venture, Supercut, by literally talking to Claude Code through a microphone - building full iOS apps in days without knowing Swift. He argues that since AI has commoditized the "How" of building software, the "What" and "Why" (Design and Taste) matter more than ever. They also explore why this shift allows for a "Minimum Viable Team" of just three people, why David regrets scaling Typeform into a large organization, and how to survive as a "Pioneer" founder without getting bogged down by professional management. Key Highlights: 01:21: The "Accidental" Origin: How a client project for a toilet showroom in Barcelona turned into Typeform.03:51: The Viral Launch: Generating 8,000 pre-signups and achieving immediate viral growth without traditional validation.09:53: The Taste Differentiator: Why design is the only way to distinguish yourself 13:00: The "Impulsive" Archetype: David's approach to building products based on intuition rather than validation.21:41: The "Professional CEO" Trap: Why David regrets stepping down and why founders should stay in the driver's seat.37:42: The Float Labs Model: How David runs a product lab to spin out new companies (like Supercut).42:09: The Minimum Viable Team: Why the modern startup only needs a Designer, a Tech Lead, and a Marketer.44:53: The "Tastemaker" Advice: You don't need to be a designer; you just need to be opinionated.
