What do you want out of life? What do you want to accomplish in the next 3-5 years? When asked this question, most entrepreneurs give a pretty simplistic answer. Something like “Oh, we’ll get more clients by this time next year” or “I’ll buy two more houses and then I’ll be happy”. How often do we sit down and paint a picture of what we want our life to look like? Today we’re discussing Vivid Visions with their creator Cameron Herold.Cameron is a veteran in the business world, he likes to say that he was “groomed” by his entrepreneurial grandparents and father to become a success story. By the time Cameron was 21, he had a full-on business that had 12 employees, and at 22 he bought his first rental property. He later became a franchisee for College Pro Painters and was so successful that he went on to coach new franchisees.He’s partnered with hundred-million dollar companies, grown and sold businesses for millions, coached the CEO of Sprint, a monarchy in the middle east, has written 5 books, and runs the Second in Command Podcast, where he talks to successful COOs. Cameron is someone who clearly has accomplished a lot and has a TON of wisdom to share.Cameron has serious knowledge on business management and talks about the importance of the CEO and COO relationship. Cameron describes how a COO needs to be a partner to the entrepreneur (the CEO) and operate as the ying to the CEO’s yang. If you’ve heard the terms “the visionary and the innovator” from books like Traction, this is exactly what Cameron is talking about.If you’ve been wondering where the idea of a “plan” or “vision” comes into play, Brandon, David, and Cameron all discuss their “Vivid Visions” and how it’s led them to success in their life. Cameron coined the term “Vivid Vision” because most entrepreneurs were simply writing down a 1-2 sentence mission statement instead of creating a vision of what they wanted their company and future to look like. This vision not only helps you build a life you want by design, it also entices great executives, employees, and partners to join you on your path to that clear and decisive “Vivid Vision”.In This Episode We Cover:How Brandon found out about the “Vivid Vision” and how it has changed his worldview since creating oneWhy Cameron decided to coach COOs as opposed to CEOsThe importance of having a COO or 2nd in command that you trust and believe inWhy your job postings should scare those who aren’t ready to take risks and growWhy entrepreneurs have such a hard time when letting goHow to create your “Vivid Vision” in 7 stepsWhat a great “Vivid Vision” looks like, what it includes, and how to structure itAnd So Much More!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets PodcastBiggerPockets book storeBrandon's InstagramDavid's InstagramBiggerPockets Business Podcast 39: Creating Your Vision and Achieving Massive Success with Cameron HeroldBiggerPockets Podcast 230: Real Estate Investing as a Side Hustle with Grammy-Winning Producer Seth MosleyBrandon's Vivid Vision (photo)Second-In-Command PodcastVivid Vision WebsiteClick here to check the full show notes: https://www.biggerpockets.com/show447

Jacqueline Smith knew that she didn’t want to have a big loan on her first house. The way she solved the problem: buy a foreclosed home and do a live in flip! It worked out so well, that she later decided to do it again, on her second home. Her and her husband then had the idea to go at it full time.Even during COVID-19, Jacqueline and her husband have 4 flips in the making, and are looking to add more when deals pop up. She’s been through a lot in her short flipping career, from a tornado coming through a house she was working on, to builder tools being stolen while they were housed on site. This only made Jacqueline find better and more efficient ways to do her flipping.Many of the deals Jacqueline has worked on have come from realtors and investors she’s met through organizations like BiggerPockets and her local REIA. She strongly urges any new investor to join their local real estate groups, talk to investors, and present deals to other experienced professionals when they have the ability to.Jacqueline’s husband now is able to work on their flips as his primary business, plus get paid for the labor! Even in a crazy year like 2020, Jacqueline and her team have decided to go bigger, when many other investors were holding back.In This Episode We Cover:How to find foreclosed homes that are perfect for flipsThe importance of building equity in order to fund your future dealsHow to stop “analysis paralysis” from creeping inWhy you should attend meetups and networking eventsHow to introduce yourself to other real estate professionals, whether you’re at a meetup or just getting coffeeWhat to look for in a partner, especially if you’re new to flippingWhether or not to put in an “escalation clause” when submitting an offerWhy you should always have security cameras on siteAnd SO much more!Links from the ShowReal Estate Rookie Facebook GroupAshley's InstagramTony's InstagramHubzuMike Butler's WebsiteBiggerPockets ForumsBiggerPockets MeetupsDave RamseyDISC ProfileQuickbooksSecurity National Mortgage CompanyRookie Podcast 27: 5 Doors by Using Seller Financing for the First Time with Aaron ChapmanDelayed financing highlights from Jacqueline's Friend at SNBJacqueline's Excel SpreadsheetCheck the full show notes here: https://www.biggerpockets.com/rookie43

Keeping the plan we've got means paying $200 a month more. But... would a "cheaper" plan cost us more in the long run? It depends! And COVID makes it a lot more complicated. This stinks.You can hear my wife and me try to puzzle the whole thing out, and then I debrief with an expert. Who leaves me reminded how lucky we are to have the options we do. HEALTH INSURANCE SUCKS.But the alternative is so much worse.If you want to go deeper on health insurance, you might want to check these episodes from our first season:In Why you (and I) will likely pick the wrong health insurance, we learn: Smart economists have proved it's actually super-hard—even they aren't sure they'll pick correctly— and most of us don't even know the vocabulary, or how to do the math. (It's not our fault, either.)Why health insurance actually sucks illuminates one big answer: Insurance companies allow a LOT of price-gouging. And often WE end up paying those prices. Argh. It really does suck.In the first-ever episode of this show, my family confronts the big puzzle: Can we even get insurance that'll work for us?In A "deal" on health insurance comes with troubling strings, we go on a journey with a kinda-famous "financial therapist" who says she gets rattled when it comes to picking health insurance. And she's pretty uncomfortable—morally, personally—with some of the choices she's made. (Also, my family makes another cameo.)And here are some other helpful big-picture takes:Listener Anna Jo Beck made a really great booklet explaining how health insurance works. It's a zine! You can read it online.I borrowed some core insurance-picking advice—consider what a health plan does for you if you get hit by a bus—from this great story by Zachary Tracer at Business Insider, spelling out how he picked his insurance.Want to go really deep? Like, you're actually looking at buying health insurance, maybe on the Obamacare exchange?I found healthcare.gov to be SUPER-usable this year, way better than last time I checked: I punched in the answers to a few questions, and got to quickly tell it which doctors our family sees (and what meds we take)... and it provided a clear list that showed which plans cover our docs, how much they would cost us, etc.SUBSIDIES ARE AVAILABLE FOR OBAMACARE PLANS. Our pals at the Kaiser Family Foundation—who run Kaiser Health News, our production partners— have this explanation of how they work. (It's a slog, but thorough. Print it out, open a beer, and settle in.)Remember how we said in this episode that lots of folks qualify for a plan with no premium? That's this bit of research from...

What does “accessibility” really mean? Are homes that are labeled accessible really as accessible as they need to be? These are hot topics in today’s episode of Escrow Out Loud. Today’s guest is Andrew Gurza, a disability activist from Toronto. In the conversation today, Andrew talks about his own experience as a person with disabilities, the value of hiring and listening to people with disabilities, why “accessible” real estate (and other facilities) often aren’t nearly accessible enough, and why everyone needs to be aware of how disability will affect their own lives.Topics Discussed in This EpisodeAndrew’s disability awareness workHow Andrew ended up in his careerWhat Andrew’s home is likeHow long Andrew has been in his home and how he found itHow Andrew feels about the word “accessible”Accessibility standards in San Francisco real estateHow “accessible” homes are often not truly accessibleHow accessibility restricts the parts of a city disabled people can live in and the types of homes they can live inWhy people may not like to think about accessibilityHow the ADA does or doesn’t apply to residential real estateThe importance of talking to people with disabilities about their disabilitiesThe value of hiring disabled peopleThe top things that the real estate industry can do to accommodate people with disabilitiesRelated LinksAndrew GurzaAndrew on TwitterAndrew on Instagram See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Now more than ever the movement for social justice is finding allies in the white community seeking to know more about our different experiences.

#42: A big reason why I started HYW was to show how you can “hack systems” in large and small ways – whether related to taxes, travel, real estate, etc – to achieve FI and retire early……and to continue growing wealth even in retirement.That’s probably why many readers are engineers: you likely know a thing or two about hacking / optimizing systems.That’s also probably why there are many ex-engineers in the FIRE community.Today’s guests, who were engineers before early retiring, were one of the first folks in the FIRE community I started following a few years ago.So it’s a real treat to talk with Kristy Shen and Bryce Leung, millennial early retirees who quit well-paying engineering jobs to travel the world, initially, for one year…but decided – after analyzing their spend that year and realizing it cost less to travel than to live in their hometown – to do it for good. (Along the way, they also wrote a popular FIRE blog and best-selling book.)Their story is about applying simple rules of thumb to saving and investing to build a 7-figure portfolio and retire early, then optimizing your investments efficiently to withdraw safely into perpetuity.We discuss:What motivated them to leave well-paying engineering jobsHow they came up with their FIRE number and what they invested inWhy they rebelled against conventional wisdom to buy a homeHow they stayed focused as friends and colleagues upgraded their lifestyles…and how they eventually became the envy of peers back homeWhy their parents objected but eventually came around (and what convinced them)The moment they realized it was cheaper to travel than to stay at homeHow big their portfolio was on the day they retired and how big it is now (after traveling over the years)How they use a “yield shield” to structure their withdrawals so they never have to sell in a down-market (and how long their cash buffer will last)How their mindset shifted from “traveling to consume” to “traveling to learn”How they deal with loneliness when traveling for long stretchesHow they handle health insurance after losing their universal coverageHow getting older and potentially starting a family may change their travel lifestyle in the futureWould you travel long-term – potentially forever – in early retirement? Do you agree with Kristy’s and Bryce’s views on homeownership? What are your reactions to their safe withdrawal strategy (yield shield)?

Why does an estimated 5% of the general population intentionally and repeatedly hurt themselves? What are the reasons certain people resort to self-injury as a way to manage their daily lives? In Why do We Hurt Ourselves? Understanding Self-Harm in Social Life (Indiana University Press, 2018), sociologist Baptiste Brossard draws on a five-year survey of self-injurers and suggests that the answers can be traced to social, more than personal, causes. Self-injury is not a matter of disturbed individuals resorting to hurting themselves in the face of individual weaknesses and difficulties. Rather, self-injury is the reaction of individuals to the tensions that compose, day after day, the tumultuousness of their social life and position. Self-harm is a practice that people use to self-control and maintain order—to calm down, or to avoid "going haywire" or "breaking everything." More broadly, through this research Brossard works to develop a perspective on the contemporary social world at large, exploring quests for self-control in modern Western societies. In this interview, Dr. Brossard and I discuss how he came to study self-injury, managing the stigma of self-injury, how people use online forums for community, the discrete nature of self-injury, and the role of gender. I recommend this book for people interested in mental health, stigma, deviant behavior, and qualitative methods. Dr. Baptiste Brossard, (@BaptistBrossard) a French sociologist, is a lecturer at the Australian National University. He received his PhD in sociology at the School for Advanced Studies in the Social Sciences (2011). His primary areas of research are mental health, sociological theory, qualitative methods and utopian studies.

If we want to change the world, instead of fighting against the system from the outside, how about taking a leaf out of Maria Cristina Papetti’s life book, and try to change the world from the inside?“Being an activist, that is not easy, because you need a lot of energy, a lot of passion. But from the outside, always fighting all the time against something, that is easy. It’s what you can do when you are inside the system, that some would say, is more challenging.”And Maria Cristina embodies the passionate purpose that the company she works for, exists to fulfill. Enel, a global Italian utility company believes that ‘sustainability will not develop without continuous innovation and for us innovation is meaningless unless it is oriented towards sustainability.’Enel couldn’t have chosen a better person to be their Head of Sustainability Projects and Practice Sharing, because Maria Cristina is not just dedicated to her work - what she does is so much more than just a job, you see, Maria Cristina’s desire to change the world through sustainability and innovation is a part of who she is. “I'm always asking myself, even nowadays, what kind of woman you would like to be in your future… for young professionals entering this world, be curious about people, about the world, about friends, about what is all around you. This is really important, if you get that, if you make a deep dive into everything, because you need to catch and to understand what can be done.”In this podcast:How to bring about change through sustainability and innovationThe importance of embedding sustainability into business and creating a new cultureHow a utility company can better the world we are living inWhy we all have a purposeInnovation can make your business more sustainableOpen powerWhy young professionals need to be curiousIt is important that you live the life you are here to liveThere is no Planet BLinks:EnelBarefoot CollegeSolar energy, the Barefoot College and Enel in AfricaThe sun reaches inside homes in Bahia See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

This podcast interview focuses on product innovation that boosts the return on investment of our advertising by turning every ad into an ethical one, and my guest is Amy Williams, Co-Founder and CEO of Good Loop.Amy is an active member of the Women in Tech and Tech For Good communities. She was recently named by Forbes as one of the 30 Under 30 most influential people in media & marketing and has recently been listed in The Drum Digerati as one of the 100 outstanding individuals excelling in the UK digital industry.Amy has worked in the advertising sector all her career. At the age of 15 she first stepped into an advertising agency. She cut her teeth at one of the world's largest advertising agencies where she worked on everything from global TV ads to scrappy social campaigns. During this time she realised that it’s really difficult for brands to get their message in front of their audience in a cost-effective and positive way. The more she learned about the industry the more she started to see a disconnect between brands and the people they were trying to talk to. Too often the transaction between advertiser and viewer is at best impersonal and at worst unpleasant. As ad blocker downloads continue to rise and quality journalism continues to suffer the consequences, she sensed that it was time for a more positive solution. That's why she founded the ethical video advertising platform, Good-Loop.This inspired me, hence I invited Amy to my podcast. We explore what’s broken in the advertising industry and why current approaches to get the maximum number of eyeballs for the minimum possible cost will only make things worse, not better. We dive into the concept behind Good-Loop, and how it’s found an ingenious way to connect people, brands and publishers in more meaningful, and consequently more effective way that’s creating a winning case for everyone involved. Here are some of his quotes:The big idea behind my business is that your time, your attention and your data, all of these things online, they are valuable to someone. They're valuable to advertisers.And so, we want to basically harness that value and use it to make the world a better place.The reason I called it Good Loop actually was, I was thinking about this idea of creating a virtuous cycle: Advertising is such a big business and it funds the free internet.But it's something that people inherently resent. There's a huge erosion of public trust around advertising online.It’s illustrated by how many people use ad-blockers. Hundreds of millions use ad blockers, and then it kind of leaves you the question: ‘How are we going to keep the internet free if we can't find a way for advertising to be perceived more positively?’So, we're on a mission to make ethical advertising the new normal. And that means that whenever you see an ad online, it shouldn't be something you block, it should be something that you're pleased to see because it means that the world is being made a better place.During this interview, you will learn three things:Why, in order to create breakthrough innovation, it’s key to frame the problem in the correct way i.e. name the true villain in your storyHow, by making your solution outcome oriented, or in other words only make customers pay for success, you can create an offer that’s a no-brainer for every stakeholder to get involved inWhy, by simply starting, you will be 10 times further ahead than most people who just talk about an idea, but hope for all stars to align.

Author Ibn Warraq‘s most recent book is The Islam in Islamic Terrorism: The Importance of Beliefs, Ideas, and Ideology. In it, he takes the dogmas of jihadists seriously and critically examines the Islamic sources upon which they draw. Ibn Warraq is perhaps most famous for his best-selling work, Why I Am Not a Muslim (1995), an early warning to the West about the dangers of political Islam and multiculturalism. He has edited and contributed to several books of Koranic criticism and on the origins of Islam: The Origins of the Koran, 1998; The Quest for the Historical Muhammad, 2000; What the Koran Really Says, 2002; Which Koran? 2011; and Christmas in the Koran, 2014. Bernard Lewis has written that, “Ibn Warraq exemplifies the rarely combined qualities of courage, integrity, and intelligence.” Ibn Warraq’s Defending the West: A Critique of Edward Said’s Orientalism, 2007, was described by distinguished professor Paul Berman as “a glorious work of scholarship, and it is going to contribute mightily to modernizing the way we think about Western civilization and the rest of the world.” In Why the West is Best, 2011, Ibn Warraq addressed the need for Western civilization to regain its civilizational self-confidence. Ayaan Hirsi Ali has said that “Warraq’s books have defended Western civilization and have reminded us what we are fighting for.” He is currently Senior Research Fellow at the Westminster Institute, a Senior Fellow at the London Center for Policy Research, and a contributing editor to The New English Review. He studied Arabic and Persian at the University of Edinburgh.

Is there a logic to history?  Many scholars balk at the idea of searching for such logic, insisting that each culture may only be understood on its own terms. In Why the West Rules - For Now, Ian Morris counters that if we look beyond the facade of culture to how human biology, sociology, and geography interact, it is possible to discover a fundamental pattern in history to help us answer the biggest historical questions, from why the West rules for now, to what will happen next.

Did you know you might be live streamed? It depends on the state that you're in  [00:00:42] There are people that are paying to watch people taking rides in Uber and Lyft. These free online courses from Google may help you boost your career. And why is Samsung's Galaxy S9, their brand new flagship phone, struggling so badly?

You'll get a summary and then if you want to read more you can click on the read more link at the bottom and that will take you to the original article that I am quoting. Of course, many times these articles are written by me or a member of my team. In which case you, you're gonna see the whole thing right there, and you don't have to hit the read more button. Well, Samsung you know has been selling phones and smartphones for a while and their success came when they switched to the Android operating system. Android, the number one worldwide, as far as installed units go, for mobile device operating systems. Also, the number one world-wide worst operating system for a mobile device if you want security. So I know people who love Android, they've just become hooked on it. They know it well, they don't want a change, and they just kinda of sit there with their fingers in their ears and they say I can't hear you. Can't Hear you NAH NAH NAH NAH [00:03:12] And they're still using Android, I just don't get it right. So, for my customers, I always advise them don't use Android. Use Apple use iOS, iOS two years ago was finally approved by the federal government for military use. You're not seeing that with your standard Android phone that you're buying at the local retailer. So, if you want security, stay away from Android. But, that doesn't answer the question here about Samsung. Samsung, of course, they are probably, if you're going to buy an Android phone, they're probably the best ones to buy them from. Huawei has out a new phone that's got some really great camera features on them. But, we also know that they're blocked from the U.S. market, at least a large part of it, because the government, now won't buy them, won't use them won't sell them in the NEX/PX on base. Because of potential spying problems that were revealed in Huawei designs and chipsets.   [00:04:16] You might also remember on the show we talked about how they had more than, I think, it was north of a billion dollars worth of fines, which is a pretty hefty fine if you ask me. So, Huawei's kind of out of the market, here. You've got some others, HTC, I'm trying to think of some of them over the years. A few of them are actually out of business, now. Samsung's it, right. They're the big guys, South Korean outfit. They make pretty decent hardware. So, what's happening now? Obviously, the sales are not what Samsung or its investors were hoping for. They added some cool little silly things if you ask me. Which Apple did too, right. You saw with the release of the iPhone 10 you know these emojis'. That will take on some of your facial expressions on iOS. Which is just stupid really. Really, that's going to sell more phones. Who buys a phone for that. Well, Samsung did much the same thing, and they were pretty jazzed about it, right. They have images that look like you, which I think is really kind of cool, but it's no reason to spend eight hundred bucks on a phone. If you asked me, or twelve hundred bucks if you get a fully loaded iPhone Ten. The electronics division over at Samsung just said, that they "had lower than expected sales of the flagship Galaxy S9" and that's the main reason because it wasn't just the nine but their overall profitability was hurt badly because people just aren't buying them  [00:05:54] You know it gets to a point, where you're good enough, right. Do I really need to spend money on another device? And, the answer to that is, probably no. I usually wait for two major releases before I buy a new one. So, like right now, I have an iPhone 8. Before that, I had an iPhone 6, and the iPhone 6 I was using, my wife now uses because she's just plenty happy with it, doesn't need any of the newer features, or you know that new speed or memory stuff that I tend to use. You'd expect that right. Yeah, that's it. That's the reason that's why I got a table saw for Christmas last year. But, you know the newer phones are faster, I can run the newer apps on them so I can test them out. And I have more security stuff because I do use it with some of the clients that I have and there's some information I don't want to get out. So, this handset the S9 was launched in February, and some of the critics are praising these new camera tricks. You know really, really, really, super slow motion. [00:06:59] What? What's that going to buy you? Are you going to buy a phone because it has super slow motion, really? I don't think I've ever used slow motion on my phone or any of my video cameras. Would you use that? I don't understand it. Here, but anyways despite the speculation in the S9 sales have been the weakest since the Samsung S3. Samsung still not disclosing any of the real numbers and they have a 20 percent revenue drop in the division. Why, are they struggling to stand out? Well, frankly the physical differences between the 8 and 9 are almost nonexistent. Which makes you wonder about Apple? So, many people complaining about that. You know the top center of the apple screen where they've got the camera. So there's this little divot, at the top and people make fun of it. In fact, Samsung came up with some ads making fun of that feature on the iPhone. But, it looks different, doesn't it? It makes it visibly different. Well, there's not much of a difference between the S8 and the S9 as far as looks. A little bit of a difference in the position of the fingerprint sensor. They have a dual aperture lens, which is you know kind of cool. But if you're not a photography geek. Why would you care? [00:08:22] There just isn't the differentiation. [00:08:25] We've got the Chinese rivals, also out there, and frankly I think one of Samsung's biggest problems is they're paying too much attention to Apple. All right there's a lot of innovation in the Android space, I'll give you that Samsung's always been able to outspend their competitors on marketing. But I think they're just focusing too hard in trying to, really overstep Apple. And what Apple's doing in the U.S. market. And even with some of the criticism, Apple's been having lately, it just doesn't make sense, it's not worth all of the effort all of the trouble. Samsung, just go ahead and make a difference come up with a really great device that everybody wants and Why don't you let Apple start chasing you for a change. So, on the S9 verdict isn't probably worth your time or your money. [00:09:23] Hey, if you're looking to learn a little bit more, an uptick your job and your earning potential  [00:09:30] It's always been around learning, hasn't it. I don't know that it's necessary to have a college degree. I certainly don't think it is in many, many, careers. I think most of the H.R. people are just taking an easy out, by looking for that checkboxes, says yeah you've got a master's or a bachelor's degree. I think they're taking the easy way out. It's you know I think it's kind of insane. What matters are the skills? What skills are you bringing? Oh, you've got five years experience fighting malware on large networks using great Cisco hardware and software and you've been providing tech support. And everybody says wonderful things about you. Well, that's worth way more than a bachelor's degree, that's worth way more than even a certification from one of these companies like you know the Cisco certifications. But you know what are you going to learn in them. This is a good opportunity for you, you'll find these links up on my Web site. Craig Peterson dot com. [00:10:31] I've got a link to a great article from Inc. magazine. You'll find it online there, as well. But, they've got a class on getting your startup started. Now, all of these classes they're called Class central. They're all pretty darn basic. And, you know if you ask me, a lot of stuff so basic. So, I don't know maybe it's advanced to you, but it's really aimed more at startup people. People who are just learning. So, this particular course on getting your startup started is going to help you with your mission and vision statement. Find mentors team members. Find financing for your business. Pitch deck to try and get customers or VCs on board. By the way, I would advise getting customers. You need people paying you money, once you have people paying you money, then you can go and find your investors. Frankly, I think that's a way that should work in most cases. I never cheated and went to VC or angel route. But it's a self-paced course takes about three weeks. They've got another one, on App Marketing. If you've got the best idea for the app store or Google Play store. Wow, this is going to be great for you, right. Apps, I don't know there's not that much money in them anymore, unless you are making apps that are aimed at a particular company's internal customers. [00:11:51] You know their supply chain, but an app marketing course, so you can learn about creating and launching an app. It sounds like can be pretty useful for anybody doing online marketing. So kind of any business owner might want to take this. It's about a two-week course, again from Google. App Monetization. This is a course is targeted at people who want to create apps or some free online content and have it generate income. But, depending on how much you know, it might not be very useful again. It's kind of a beginner thing if you're out of school and you're thinking about maybe making apps, it's a free thing, about a month is what it takes. Product Design. You've got a great idea for a product, that can help you with your idea, create a mock-up design, and quickly connect with potential customers. Check with them to see if your product can be viable. And, of course, the only real test, I go right back to this is, someone gives you money, because people will say they're going to buy it, but they don't, OK. So, it's a good thing to check out, to ask and get a little direction  [00:13:01] But, if you can get people to pay you money, even before you develop your product, you'll be much better off. In fact, there's a company. What's it called G.T. Solar I think is the name in Merrimack. It was founded and he made he grew some chips for silicon wafers and things in order to make solar panels. And, he was able to fund his company, entirely, from his customers. So his customers were going ahead sending him a few bucks and that few bucks then went the extra mile, frankly because he had his customers fund him as he built all of his systems out. Product Design. Strengthening your LinkedIn network and brand. Again, this is part of the entry level grow with Google curriculum. So, if you're seasoned already as a networker or LinkedIn user it might not be great for you. But these courses and a lot more if you're thinking about doing a little entrepreneurial thing with the market doing so well. The economy doing, so well. Check it out you'll find links to this up on my Web site. Craig Peterson dot com. Look in today's email. It'll be right there for you. You can just click right through and find out anything that you might need, right there. [00:14:22] Hey, did you hear the news out of New York City this week, if you are a cab driver or wannabe cab driver and you may be doing something for Uber Lyft. Make a few extra bucks with your car. It's really kind of a nice thing. There have been some instances where bad things have happened with Uber and Lyft but I've had bad things happen with regular cabs, as well. Well, in New York City, apparently they passed a new ordinance, that is basically going to ban Uber and Lyft from their streets. We're not going to go into that right now, that's not part of this show. But, you might have a hard time finding Uber and Lyft next time you're in New York City because of that. Well, what we're going to talk about are called live streams. Now, there are a few kinds of cool sites, out there, that you can use in order to live stream. Twitch is one of them T W I T C H and we use it with US Robotics. I don't know if you're familiar with that, great program, if you're not involved. Make sure you get involved and you'll find them online. I think it's us first dot Org. I know they changed its name but anyways I think you can still get their US first dot Org. They use twitch in order to broadcast these competitions that are held all over the world which is really, really, cool. [00:15:47] I love that thing. Well, when you step into one of these ride-sharing cars, do you realize that you might be on video? Now up on the dashboard, there's usually the little smartphone right and might be Android it might be iOS. And on that, they're running the app from Uber or from Lyft, and that app is tracking where they're going that lets them say you'll pick up this rider and lets them score the rider after, the fact, right. It lets you do all of these things. So, you know there's one other thing that's been happening, you might not have expected. And that is that some of these guys, apparently, have been live streaming on Twitch. So, you get in the car and the whole ride is live-streamed. Now, I can see one side of this, which is it's a safety factor for the driver, because now it is out, in the ether, his wife or her husband or family, whoever can watch it at home make sure everything looks safe everything's good. And, from that standpoint, I think that's really kind of a neat safety feature. Depending on which state you're in, that may or may not be legal. There is something called two-party consent, and that means that both people who are being recorded need to give permission. And, it needs to be explicit permission. Now, I record people all the time from my radio show from my webinars. [00:17:20] You know, the FBI webinars I do, all of these things. So, all of that is legit because they know they're being recorded, right.I even will say, OK we're going to start recording now, just so I have that. Well, in this case, this particular guy Jason Gargack, I guess it is. He's an uber and Lyft driver and he's been broadcasting apparently hundreds of trips on twitch without explicitly obtaining consent. Now, he's taken steps to protect passengers, so he mutes addresses moderating lewd chat comments, at least some of the customers said they wouldn't have entered the car or if they knew they were being live streamed. And it's certainly possible to identify some of the passengers based on the details that are there in the archived videos. But, he's asserting that the streams are legal. He's in Missouri. Missouri has a one-party recording consent law which means you only have to have one person who consents to the recording. Now, I personally go back and forth on this I think of it's a public official in the performance of their public duties or under the color of law. I think it should always be recordable. Always. It's a public official whether it's a town clerk, a police officer, a fire hydrant inspector, a federal agent, doesn't matter that should be recordable without the consent of the public official. And, many times you see that happening even in two-party states where you have a whole bunch of people out there with video cameras on their smartphones videotaping a police officer in the performance of their duty. [00:19:07] Right, you see that sort of thing fairly frequently. Well, in many cases it's illegal in my home state, here. It's illegal to do that as well. So, what's happening here? Well, Missouri allows him to record other people without their consent. He has a sticker on his car that tells passengers that they're consenting to be recorded if they enter the vehicle and he describes it, as for security. Now, that's the part I mentioned earlier I think that kind of makes sense, right. Well, here's where things get a little bit fuzzy. Apparently, he is charging some people to get his live stream. Now, his live stream remember is going out on twitch and twitch does allow you to sell access to a stream. So, apparently, there are at least according to one report he's been charging five bucks or more a month. He's got more than 100 paid subscribers. It's really interesting. Uber had shut off his access to the driver's app while it "evaluates his partnership". So, even though live streaming might be legal in Missouri, Uber guidelines bar any kind of inappropriate or disrespectful behavior including comments on appearance. So, who knows, right. Twitch wasn't commenting on it. But, you can find this article up on my Web site as well. OK, so, one more article here for today and this is about security coming out of our friends at Google. [00:20:52] Now, Google has been using this technology in-house here for a while. And, remember they have tens of thousands of employees and they have not had a single case of a successful phishing attack since they started doing this. That's pretty darn cool, frankly. Google has been following the standard that's out there. It's called The FIDO's specification. But here's the bottom line. It's a key, it's a USB key. It has some smarts in it and it allows a web page to authenticate you. It allows your laptop to authenticate you. Your desktop to authenticate you. So, you have to use this key in order to get your machine to allow you to log in. They've had this by the way since 2014, so that's pretty substantial that FIDO specification. And Google has been supporting it the Google accounts have. So, this titan key is something Google has now released. Anyone who is using their cloud services, the Google Cloud Services, has first dibs on it. You can go out and get it. I've had a couple of my clients now asking about it because they've been following my weekly e-mails and I've been kind of hinting that this is going to be coming and we're probably going to use a different kind of key here. The, you know, the Google Key is now quite yet. [00:22:20] And some of these other ones are well supported as well. Also, follow the FIDO log in specs. So, we're starting to move some of our customers over. We're already using some of this technology including, DUO, which by the way, I think it was Google just bought this week. So, that's kind of cool, we're once again going to be ahead of the game in keeping our stuff secure. But, this is all available you can check it out Google's advance protection program. I've got a link to all of this up on my Web site. Craig Peterson dot com. And, of course, it's also in this week's newsletter, which you can sign up for also at Craig Peterson dot com slash subscribe. We've got subscriptions open, again. Well, there's other stuff we didn't get to today. You might want to check out. We've got Russian hackers. Looks like they may have penetrated hundreds of U.S. based, electrical grid networks. That's a very big deal. Apparently, they could turn off the power, at will, and cause some major havoc here. A lot of victims. This is bad. Your smart TV may be tracking you. If you have a smart TV and you can tell because they have built into them things like YouTube or Netflix or right your Hulu access to those TVs not only track what you're watching because it's easy enough for them to know, but they have a special software that's built into them and did you know even know this existed? [00:23:49] It's called automatic content recognition, by SAMBA TV, usually. And, this automatic content recognition even recognizes video games that you're feeding into the TV and tracks your use. So, I've got a very detailed article from the New York Times that's up on my Web site Craig Peterson dot com. You can go there and have a look, it's got instructions for all of the major smart TV brands and what you can do to turn that off. I think it's important to do, although, you know the marketing side of it, I can see it's a great thing. I personally would rather only see ads for cars, when I'm looking to buy a car right. Well, they show me things that I'm interested in. But, the problem comes in when the bad guys get their hands on this information. This stuff's eminently hackable. It's been hacked before, it will be hacked again. So, be very, very, careful. You'll find it all. Craig Peterson dot com. Hope you have a great week. We'll be back next week with more.
