Learn more about Michael Wenderoth, Executive Coach: www.changwenderoth.comIn the past year, host Michael Wenderoth saw a huge jump in Stanford MBAs pursuing an alternative career path. When he sought to learn more, everyone pointed him to today's guest, Ruby Au, a 2025 Stanford Business School graduate who chose the search fund path. In this episode of 97% Effective, Michael and Ruby discuss search funds, the hot alternative path to entrepreneurship, and why it is experiencing a surge in interest among MBAs, top talent—and investors looking for strong returns. Most people are familiar with private equity and venture capital, but far fewer understand search funds, so Michael and Ruby break down the nuts and bolts of the model, where entrepreneurs raise capital to search for, acquire, and operate an existing small business. Ruby also shares insights she gained from hundreds of coffee chats with industry insiders. If you feel constrained by working in big companies—but don't have the stomach for a risky start-up, you'll want to listen to this episode. Search—and Ruby's insights—may open your eyes to the growth and impact that can come from the small, unsexy businesses that quietly power our economy. SHOW NOTESWhat Search Funds Are – and How They WorkHow Ruby discovered search, and why it felt like a best-fitWhat search fund investors are looking for in the entrepreneurs and companies they backThe “search phase” and the “acquisition/operating” phaseWhy “boring” companies that don't make headlines can be great businessesWhy many business sellers see search as a unique succession plan Why Search Funds Are Taking Off – and Where They Are Going“An asset class that started to post 35% IRRs”The most successful search outcome of all time: from roadside rescue to that little purple logo at your Amazon checkoutAs money pours in, does mentorship and the traditional model scale? Ruby's Insights – What You Won't Find in ReportsHow Ruby was taken off guard by the close-knit search ecosystemWhy she started her blog Succession StoryRuby's sector focus and what she wants to get out of her search process3 insider insights: How new investors are challenging the traditional search model; how to find the right business for you; and how search can reshape how you view social impact BIO AND LINKSRuby Au is a search fund entrepreneur and Principal at Succession Story LLC. Her career began in Nairobi, Kenya, where she founded an edtech venture acquired in 2020. She later launched the African office for San Francisco-based Endless Computers and served as Head of North America for the green search engine, Ecosia. Ruby graduated summa cum laude with dual degrees in Business Administration and Environmental Studies from the University of Southern California and holds an MBA from Stanford, where she served on the leadership of Stanford's Search Fund Club.

Interview with Jim Starr, President and CEO of America's Charities, about the organization's mission to “mobilize the power of giving” through workplace giving, corporate volunteering programs, emergency assistance funds, and scholarships. They explain the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC)—founded in 1961, once raising $280M in 2009 but down to $68M from about 70,000 donors in 2024—its shift from paper catalogs to an online platform, and factors behind its decline, including new charity fees, government shutdowns, and workforce morale; retiree giving is noted as a bright spot. Starr says OPM has paused or signaled possible cancellation, shut down the reporting portal, and has not opened 2026 applications, raising concern the CFC may end and that much of the $70M would not be replaced due to payroll giving's low-friction nature. Starr also highlights America's Charities reaching $1B in total funds processed to nonprofits and describes how emergency assistance funds provide confidential, tax-free grants for employee hardships and how the organization administers scholarship programs with vetting and fraud checks. 00:00 Welcome and Introductions 00:57 Mission and Services 01:50 Origins in the CFC 04:12 CFC Decline and Drivers 05:53 Is the CFC Ending 09:02 Fees and Participation Basics 09:56 Rebrand Joke and Real Stakes 11:42 Why Payroll Giving Matters 13:39 Billion Dollar Milestone 16:56 Emergency Assistance Funds 18:02 How EAFs Work 19:45 Privacy and Employer Benefits 20:41 Who Should Offer EAFs 21:00 Who Uses Emergency Funds 22:15 Retention And Community Impact 24:56 Direct Giving Versus GoFundMe 26:29 Life After The CFC 29:03 Expanding Corporate Philanthropy 29:50 Scholarship Program Walkthrough 33:17 Pricing And Review Workflow 35:13 Fraud Checks In The AI Era 37:17 Billion Dollar Milestone Wrap

Bill Powers interviews First Phosphate CEO John Passalacqua following PDAC, where the company received a non-repayable C$16.7M grant and highlighted government support for critical mineral supply chains. Passalacqua says the funding de-risks the company through feasibility, permitting, and toward a final investment decision, with drilling nearly complete and a feasibility study targeted for December 2026. He explains LFP batteries are largely phosphate-based and that First Phosphate's high-purity igneous phosphate resource in Quebec is rare and advantaged by proximity to infrastructure and a deep-sea port. He discusses phosphate being added to Canada's critical minerals list and related tax credits for downstream facilities, outlines a 10,000 tpa LFP CAM plant concept pending tariff clarity, and reviews U.S. market access via OTCQX and a new 10:1 ADR, along with insider share purchases and recent stock highs. 00:00 Intro 00:54 Canada Grant Impact 02:11 Drilling and Feasibility Timeline 03:02 Why LFP Needs Phosphate 04:05 Infrastructure and Location Edge 05:29 Critical Minerals List Benefits 07:55 Downstream Plant and Tariff Pause 09:03 Europe and US Strategy 10:20 OTCQX Tickers and ADR Explained 14:07 Insider Buying and Alignment 15:05 Valuation and Execution Outlook 16:53 Wrap Up and Disclaimers First Phosphate Introductory Interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eD7t1Q7OZfU Press releases discussed: https://firstphosphate.com/first-phosphate-nrcan-funding-16-7m/ https://firstphosphate.com/canada-critical-minerals-phosphate-clean-tech/ https://firstphosphate.com/first-phosphate-adr-program-fphoy-otcqx/ https://firstphosphate.com/ CSE: PHOS – FSE: KD0 – OTCQX: FRSPF – OTCQX-ADR: FPHOY Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Sponsor First Phosphate pays Mining Stock Education a United States dollar ten thousand per month coverage fee.

While the Search Fund ecosystem has worried – seemingly for over a decade now – about the possibility of middle-market Private Equity firms moving down market, it's interesting to ask whether the inverse may now be happening, at least to a certain extent: Are Search Funds moving up market?

California taxpayers are funding Kamala Harris’ multi‑city book‑tour security, with dozens of CHP officers escorting her in the U.S. and abroad but the state won’t say how much it costs or how long it will continue. Critics argue the secrecy raises concerns about using public resources for a private, money‑making tour. Gov. Gavin Newsom warned he may pull state funding from 10 “underperforming” counties including Fresno, LA, San Francisco, Kern, and Riverside for failing to meet benchmarks under his CARE Court mental‑health and homelessness program. He blasted the counties for filing too few treatment petitions and said he’ll redirect money to better‑performing regions, while local officials pushed back, arguing low petition numbers don’t reflect failure and that counties need more funding, not threats to improve services.

In this month's Junior Mining Insights discussion, Bill Powers and Brian Leni recap the past month in junior mining with a North American focus after attending Vancouver's Metals Investor Forum and PDAC in Toronto.

The U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) has published numbers on how many employees left the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) during President Donald Trump's first year in office. BIA focused on reducing its federal workforce through layoffs and hiring freezes. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio has details. The 31-page report finds that more than 800 employees were gone by last July. That is roughly 11%. When such restructuring occurs, BIA is supposed to notify tribes in advance. “Tribal leaders told us that the consultations happened after the staff reductions.” Anna Maria Ortiz is director of GAO's natural resources and environmental team. “It's resulting in the loss of a lot of institutional knowledge. It's very hard for BIA to fulfill its mission.” BIA did not offer a comment to GAO on its report, but tells KJZZ it is committed to increasing efficiency, accountability, and support for tribal self-determination. (Courtesy CSPAN) Since assuming his second presidential term last year, Trump has leveled several executive orders that have affected Two Spirits and the Native LGBTQ+ community. Brian Bull (Nez Perce) of Buffalo's Fire reports. Trump's decree for federal agencies is to only recognize “male” and “female” as genders, determined at conception. Trump has also banned gender-affirming care for youth. Elton Naswood is the executive director of the Two Spirit and Native LGBTQ+ Center for Equity. He says, as the White House began its onslaught against his community last year, he reached out to the National Congress of American Indians (NCAI), which reactivated its Two-Spirit Task Force. “I had heard a community member express the frustration of  ‘Why our people are not protecting us?’ Just that simple phrase really hit me, and instilled some type of advocacy tactic to be able to begin to highlight the issues of how the Trump administration’s executive orders were going to impact our communities.” Before colonization, Two Spirits were accepted and even seen as sacred in many tribes, but over the past few centuries, Western attitudes have sparked intolerance and harassment against them and Native LGBTQ+ people. Naswood says resolutions from the NCAI help, as does carrying on events like the annual Bay Area American Indian Two Spirit Powwow. Just being among community is healing, he adds.

The decisions honor a previous legislative commitment. Glenn Ellis Jr. is a board member of The Nature Conservancy and a member of the Makah Tribe. The Makah reservation sits on the north end of the Olympic Peninsula – one of the rainiest places in the country. Ellis notes that while people rarely associate the peninsula with fire, recent years have proven otherwise. “Three years ago, we had two fires sprout up during November. It’s just crazy to think that fire could spread in a place like this during that time. We get 119 inches of rain a year. We’re a temperate rainforest.” Funds from what was known as H.B. 1168, that passed five years ago, have helped 175 small forest landowners in three counties reduce wildfire risk through thinning and prescribed burns.

INVESTING INVOLVES RISK, INCLUDING POTENTIAL LOSS OF CAPITAL. SYLD: There is no guarantee that a Fund will achieve its investment goal. Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. High yielding stocks are often speculative, high-risk investments. The underlying holdings of the Funds may be leveraged, which will expose the holding to higher volatility and may accelerate the impact of any losses. These companies can be paying out more than they can support and may reduce their dividends or stop paying dividends at any time, which could have a material adverse effect on the stock price of these companies and the Fund's performance. International investing may involve risk of capital loss from unfavorable fluctuations in currency values, from differences in generally accepted accounting principles, or from economic or political instability in other nations. Emerging markets involve heightened risks related to the same factors as well as increased volatility and lower trading volume. Investments in smaller companies typically exhibit higher volatility. Narrowly focused funds typically exhibit higher volatility. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This episode dives into the surprisingly emotional world of fixed income investing, exploring whether traditional bond funds like BND still make sense or if newer laddered bond ETFs offer a psychological edge by returning principal at a set maturity date. Don and Tom unpack how these ETFs compare to CD ladders, why capital gains should never be expected from bonds, and how investor psychology often drives the preference for “certainty.” They also congratulate Dimensional Fund Advisors on reaching $1 trillion in assets, discuss whether laddering target-date funds makes planning easier or just more complicated, and answer listener questions about transferring accounts from Morgan Stanley to Vanguard and managing tax consequences along the way. 0:04 Bonds vs. crypto — why fixed income feels boring but matters 1:02 Why bonds exist in portfolios (stability, income, not growth) 2:18 Introduction to laddered bond ETFs (Invesco, iShares, Vanguard) 3:51 Bond returns in 2025 and the “don't expect capital gains” rule 5:03 The psychological problem with bond funds (they never mature) 6:54 How target-maturity bond ETFs differ from traditional bond funds 11:28 Yield comparisons across laddered maturities vs. BND 13:14 When laddered ETFs might make sense (income timing, certainty) 15:09 Dimensional Fund Advisors reaches $1 trillion in assets 19:57 Listener: Laddering target-date funds instead of bonds 23:19 Listener: Transferring IRA and taxable accounts to Vanguard Learn more about your ad choices.

Send a textRandy Surles—retired Army Ranger and Green Beret turned editor, ghostwriter, and Story Grid-certified book coach—joins Joe to talk directly to veterans who feel called to tell their story but don't know where to start.After 25 years in Special Operations, Randy transitioned from the military to the writing world, studying under Shawn Coyne and helping dozens of veterans turn their experiences into memoirs, leadership books, and fiction. Along the way, he's seen what works—and what doesn't.Joe reflects on his own year-and-a-half journey working with Randy on his forthcoming book—including the uncomfortable but necessary process of clarifying the message, identifying the right reader, and moving beyond “I just want to write a book” to “Here's who this is for.”Randy explains why most military memoirs never gain traction, why writing “for everyone” is the fastest way to reach no one, and how to identify the single reader you're actually trying to serve. He also breaks down the realities of publishing—from traditional deals to hybrid models to self-publishing—and why marketing is often harder than writing.Watch the full interview on YouTube!Joe and Randy also discuss:How the Hero's Journey mirrors a military careerThe power of identifying your single audience member (SAM)Why most books sell fewer than 500 copiesWhat veterans misunderstand about traditional publishingThe truth about hybrid publishers and upfront costsWhy building an email list may matter more than social media followersHow writing 600–700 words a week can turn into a finished bookWhy accountability (even the annoying kind) makes the differenceWhether you're transitioning out, reflecting on your career, or feeling the quiet pull to capture your experiences before they fade, this episode offers a practical roadmap—and a reality check—for veterans who want to turn their story into something that serves others.

Find out how tariffs may change prices and how to build sinking funds while saving for retirement. What could the Supreme Court's tariff ruling mean for the prices you pay and the next move on trade policy? How much should you set aside for sinking funds while you build an emergency fund and contribute to your 401(k)? Hosts Sean Pyles and Elizabeth Ayoola discuss sinking funds and savings priorities to help you balance long-term goals with near-term costs. But first, senior news writer Anna Helhoski joins Sean and Elizabeth to unpack the Supreme Court decision limiting “reciprocal” tariffs tied to the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) with Lourdes S. Casanova, senior lecturer at Cornell University's SC Johnson College of Business. They dig into the big open questions the ruling raises, including what legal paths might still allow new tariffs, how trading partners and markets could respond, and what tariff refunds and lawsuits could mean for businesses and consumers. Then, Sean and Elizabeth discuss sinking funds and how to decide what percentage of your income to dedicate to them when you're also trying to hit a retirement savings target. They cover what sinking funds are and why they're useful, where to keep the money (and why a high-yield savings account often fits), and how to use frameworks like 50/30/20 and time horizon to choose between saving versus investing for specific goals.

1. Large-Scale Individual Fraud Example A Los Angeles contractor, Alexander Suker, is accused of stealing $23 million intended to feed and house homeless individuals. Funds were allegedly used for luxury homes, cars, vacations, designer goods, and private schools, instead of homeless services. 2. Failure to Deliver Promised Services Suker was contracted to provide three meals per day to up to 600 homeless people. Inspections reportedly found only canned beans and ramen noodles, contradicting billing claims. Prosecutors allege the use of fake vendors, falsified facilities, and false service records. 3. Broader Pattern of Fraud in California Federal authorities indicate at least 12 additional similar cases under investigation. A U.S. Attorney stated that large sums were pushed out quickly with minimal vetting or checks and balances. 4. Comparison to Other State Scandals Investigators and commentators compare California’s situation to Minnesota’s Feeding Our Future fraud, claiming California’s fraud may be larger in scale. Independent investigator Nick Shirley claims billions of dollars may be involved statewide. 5. Alleged Billions in Unaccounted Public Funds $70 billion in taxpayer funds missing or unaccounted for $24 billion spent on allegedly nonexistent homelessness programs $18 billion on nonfunctional high-speed rail $32 billion in stolen COVID relief funds $2.5 billion lost to SNAP fraud 6. Political and Structural Implications California leadership is accused of enabling fraud by prioritizing rapid spending over accountability. Calls are made for whistleblower lawsuits as a tool to recover funds. Critics argue that higher taxes are being proposed despite massive losses. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
