This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Benjamin “The Beard” Wittes and Anastasiia (and Ava) Lapatina to discuss the week's biggest national security news stories, including:“A Waltz on Thin Ice.” Weeks after the SignalGate controversy, Mike Waltz is out as National Security Adviser and set to be nominated as U.N. Ambassador. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, meanwhile, is in for a record fourth high-ranking appointment, though rumors are circulating about just how long he may remain in the position. How big a deal is this switch in leadership? What might its broader implications be?“Resource Extraction.” After months of negotiations, Ukraine and the Trump administration have finally signed a minerals agreement that gives the United States (and, perhaps more importantly, President Trump) a financial stake in Ukraine's ongoing independence. Is the deal just exploiting Ukraine's vulnerability? Or is there a chance it might contribute to a better outcome for the beleaguered country?“Liquid Assets.” Russia has gotten its liquefied natural gas (or LNG) facility off the ground in the Arctic and is getting ready to export through a shadowfleet of unregistered vessels to eager buyers in China who are undeterred by Western sanctions. What does the situation tell us about the effectiveness of sanctions? And what is Russia up to in the Arctic?In Object Lessons, Ben logrolled Lawfare's accidentally-on-purpose, Fridays-at-4pm YouTube show, Lawfare Live (like, Like and Subscribe to our channel!).

Interview with Jeff Quartermaine, Managing Director & CEO, Perseus Mining Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/perseus-mining-asxpru-q3-results-show-strong-gold-production-cashflow-growth-6128Recording date: 28th of January, 2025Perseus Mining has reported exceptional quarterly performance, producing 132,419 ounces of gold at an industry-competitive all-in sustaining cost (AISC) of US$1,127 per ounce. The company's operational efficiency has maintained its position as one of the lowest-cost gold producers, generating an operating cash flow of US$173 million for the quarter.The Australian-listed miner, operating three mines in West Africa, ended 2024 with a robust balance sheet of approximately A$1 billion (US$704 million) in cash and bullion. CEO Jeff Quartermaine has outlined a strategic approach to capital allocation, balancing organic growth projects, shareholder returns through dividends and buybacks, and potential acquisitions.Perseus is advancing several growth initiatives across its portfolio. The company has approved underground development at its Edikan mine in Ghana, with contractor mobilization scheduled for April 2025. In Tanzania, Perseus is nearing a final investment decision on the Nyanzaga project, targeting first gold production in early 2027, subject to government negotiations on fiscal terms.The company is actively working to extend mine life across its operations, including Edikan, Sissingué, and Yaouré, through near-mine exploration. However, Quartermaine acknowledges the need to balance growth with cost considerations, noting that expanding operations using higher gold price assumptions would impact unit costs.A cornerstone of Perseus's strategy is its commitment to host communities and countries. Quartermaine emphasizes the importance of equitable benefit sharing, recognizing that local stakeholders "reasonably expect to get their fair share of the benefit of their resources." The company maintains that social license to operate through responsible ESG practices is fundamental to long-term success, regardless of changing market sentiments.Looking ahead, Perseus's investment thesis rests on several key pillars: its competitive cost structure, strong balance sheet, organic growth potential, and proven track record in West Africa. The company's disciplined approach to capital allocation and growth, coupled with its commitment to stakeholder engagement, positions it well for sustainable long-term growth.The broader macroeconomic environment appears supportive of gold, with factors such as geopolitical tensions, inflation concerns, and potential monetary policy shifts potentially providing a favorable backdrop for the sector. However, Perseus maintains its focus on operational excellence and cost management, rather than relying on gold price movements to drive profitability.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.com/companies/perseus-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

At Physician Empowerment we're focused on transforming the lives of Canadian physicians through education in finance, practice transformation, wellness and leadership. After you've listened to today's episode, I encourage you to visit us at PhysEmpowerment.ca - that's P H Y S Empowerment dot ca - to learn more about the many resources we have to help you make that change in your own life, practice and personal finances. Now on to today's episode. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:00:34] Well, welcome, everyone, on a Monday night, and it's always good to see you guys. And yeah, so Kevin there, me and Gaurav. So I'm Wing Lim, Dr. Wing Lim and this is Dr. Kevin Mailo and there's Gaurav, our guest. So welcome, everyone. There are other people who might pop in later. Yeah, so we're super excited to be hosting this one, this webinar, live webinar and etiquette as we record the show and so that you guys know it's being recorded. So yeah, I'm one of the co-founders of Physician Empowerment and what we do with the live webinar and the podcast is we interview interesting people on interesting topics that might help physicians live better lives. So we're here to do all that. And so tonight I'm super pumped to have Gaurav to be our guest. And Gaurav is interesting for many, many reasons and we'll dive right into it. But Gaurav is a physician's husband, so this is one of the spouses, but he's got a very diverse background. So maybe tell me or tell us a little bit about your immediate family or extended family, how you link into the physician community. Gaurav Sobti: [00:01:45] Sure. So thanks, Wing So I like to joke that, you know, I come from an East Indian background, lots of medical doctors in that from that background. And so my parents wanted me to be a doctor. So I did the next best thing and married one. And so, yeah, my wife, she's a family physician. She's been a family physician, I think since probably 2015 when she finished her residency. She works as she works out of a clinic. We don't run the clinic. She just works out of a clinic. And yeah, her family has a few, there's a few doctors and her mom's a doctor and so is, I think her, her cousins as well. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:02:23] Right. And then you got some on your side, right? Gaurav Sobti: [00:02:26] Do I? I'd have to think actually, I don't, I'm not sure actually if I have too many on my side. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:02:31] Right, yeah. But it doesn't matter, right? We're all regular people anyways, right? It doesn't matter what profession we are. So now professionally, you have a very interesting background. You're a CA, CPA, CFA, that's quite a designation. You have institutional background and you're not, I guess you don't want to be stuck behind a desk doing people's tax returns. So you do a whole diverse a lot of things and you're into financing as well. So tell us more about what your journey is like. Gaurav Sobti: [00:03:01] Yeah, so I went to school in Waterloo. I actually studied biotechnology and chartered accountancy. So, you know, I was kind of hedging my bets, thinking maybe I'd go into medicine. Um, but yeah, so I, I worked for Deloitte, which is an international accounting firm there. It was good, I liked it, gave me a good investigative background, but kind of always knew I wanted to do finance. Decided to move out to Edmonton to join a sort of mid-size and growing pension fund, our teacher's retirement fund, and didn't really know much about finance really until I got into there and we were doing private investments. The program was, you know, I would say the book was, you know, it was a $3 billion book where that's what we were building. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:03:46] Wow, Wow. Gaurav Sobti: [00:03:47] Half was private equity, half was infrastructure. And I worked primarily on the private equity side. Yeah, we were investing in funds and co-investments. And it was fun. It was, I could have had a very cushy job, but decided that I wanted to kind of do more entrepreneurial things. So I, you know, long story short, I joined a private lender. That's where I kind of got my experience in real estate, I was there for about four years, kind of originating deals, mortgage deals. Right? Again, probably prior to that really didn't think of mortgages as investments. And then decided I wanted to get some CMHC experience, which is related to multifamily. So I joined a national real estate finance firm, learned multifamily financing, CMHC, and then now I've kind of become, you know, independent, you know, I am technically a mortgage broker, right? I like to think of myself as more of a sort of consultant, like I put together my own deals as well, equity deals for real estate as well because I think that's where my passion lies. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:04:52] Right? So that's a really interesting background. And so of course you're more qualified than anyone, but what you just said just caught my attention. You said you learned about private equity and real estate quite a few years after you became a CA, right? So that tells me that the CAs that we use, if they're the general practice kind of CA, they might not know a lot about this stuff, do they? Gaurav Sobti: [00:05:16] Yeah, no, you're totally right. Like I, when I was a CA and doing audits, right, you know, I would say my Excel skills were pretty limited as well. Right? Think now, you know, with new CAs that's improved. You know CAs, you know, they know numbers. Some of them, even within CAs, some of them know taxes, some of them don't. There were some CAs who were auditors who didn't even do their own personal tax returns. Right? So I think obviously, just like physicians, CAs come from different kind of backgrounds and experiences. Just as finance advisors do as well, right? Dr. Wing Lim: [00:05:55] It never ceases to amaze me how my colleagues and I made a lot of decisions, East, West Coast. They always run business ideas by the accountants. Gaurav Sobti: [00:06:02] Usually they'll tell, you know, then if it's your accountant because they're generally pretty risk-averse, right? Dr. Wing Lim: [00:06:08] They're very risk averse. They'll shoot down your idea even if it's a good one. Right? So anyways, that's just for what it's worth, right? Do not go to your accountant for business advice. Go there for your tax return advice. Right? So, yeah. Okay, so let's move on. So when we talk about private equity, let's talk about public markets, right? There's public, private and most people just give their money to their advisors. And most people, most physicians I know of have thrown their money into the public markets. And it's a mess out there. So do you want to make some comment about the reason that bank runs stocks, bond reversal, crypto upheaval can just give me, get a broad brush. What's the weather like? What's the temperature like out there in the public markets? Gaurav Sobti: [00:06:53] Yeah, no, I mean, so obviously there's a lot of volatility, right? You know, after Covid. Well, when Covid hit, you know, the markets took a big dive. And then there was a big run-up related to all the printing of money. Right? Now, they're kind of out of favor again. The markets have taken a hit with just interest rates rising. Right. Tech has definitely taken a huge hit. And, you know, now there's definitely recession fears coming. So, you know, the yield curve is kind of changing, you know, by the month. Right? And especially with these banking failures with ICB and now Credit Suisse like people are worried like is this another 2008? Dr. Wing Lim: [00:07:34] Very much so. Gaurav Sobti: [00:07:35] So there's definitely a lot of volatility. You're seeing that in the bond market for sure. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:07:39] Yes, exactly. So historically, people say, well, 80/20 rule, 60/40 rule 60% stocks 20/40% bonds. Oh, you're set. Well, gee, if both of them tank, what do we do if that's our retirement? Gaurav Sobti: [00:07:53] Yeah, me personally, like, I think capital should be, you know, flexible. I'm not saying, you know, public markets are bad, but sometimes, you know, there's sometimes a time to invest in them. And so there's sometimes there's better times and sometimes there's worse times. That being said, I think you look at the Canadian pension plan model, right? And Canadian pension plans are really pioneers globally when it comes to investing, right? They tend to put a lot of money into alternatives. And I would say the three big asset classes are private equity, infrastructure, and real estate. So definitely that has a place in someone's portfolio. And you know, there is a trend towards, you know, making this more widely accessible. But yeah, you definitely have to understand sort of what the risks are and, you know, private equity, again, very broad term. Right? Dr. Wing Lim: [00:08:42] So before you go further, because treat us like grade eight in finance language. Right? So what is private versus public? Why do they call it public versus private? What distinguishes them apart? Gaurav Sobti: [00:08:57] Yeah, so private, private and public, I mean, the simple difference is that, you know, public is on a, you know, it's openly traded on an exchange. There's generally more regulation there. Right? Like, you know, to go public, like there's a lot of securities documentation that have to be filled out. Whereas private can be, although there is securities regulation associated with private, it's not as regulated, right? And yeah, it's, you know, just it's privately owned. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:09:27] Right. So why do people consider, why people go into private equity versus public? What's the advantage there? Gaurav Sobti: [00:09:35] Well, I think there's a few things. So one is control, right? When you invest in a public security. Well, especially if you invest, let's say, through an EFT or a mutual fund manager, well, that manager does not have really any say or control over that over that company. Whereas, you know, if you invest in private securities, whether you're doing your own or you're investing with the manager, they're generally going to have more control, right? That's one reason. The second reason is, you know, there's diversification. There's the universe of public companies, like there's lots of public companies out there, but there's way more private companies out there. So, you know, if all you do is invest in public, then you're missing out on a segment of the market. And then I would say generally private investments they tend to, I mean they have outperformed. Right? That's another reason. There is potential for more alpha because of the fact that there is control and also because you might be investing in different, you know, smaller mid-sized companies or projects and that could eventually go public right through consolidation. Right? Dr. Wing Lim: [00:10:56] So let's go back a little bit because we are afraid of jargon. So when you say more alpha, do you mean that there's more profit? Gaurav Sobti: [00:11:02] There is potential for more profit. There is potential. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:11:04] And then that means that potentially there's more rate of return because people go to private, I know, at least I know people, myself included, go there because all the rate of return is more attractive. Gaurav Sobti: [00:11:14] There could be, yeah. Now, you know, I will caution that part of that return comes from leverage as well. Like the public markets hate leverage, right? So like if you look at like a public REIT, for example. They're definitely not going to put as much leverage on the asset. Now they'll say it's because of risk and, you know, there's probably some truth to that. But part of it is just if they put too much leverage on it, they're punished by the public markets. You don't have that issue in the private markets. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:11:45] Let's backtrack. By leverage you mean they actually borrow some money? Gaurav Sobti: [00:11:48] Yeah, they borrow. Yeah. Typically private investments, there's more leverage in loan. Right. Which, you know, leverage, you know, it can be in, you know, in the right instances, it can be a good thing for returns. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:11:58] Right. So so what other things should we consider like, say, the downside or the cons of private investment that we need to watch out for? Gaurav Sobti: [00:12:07] Yeah, I would say a con, one con is that it's not as liquid, right? So, you know, when you invest in a stock, if you need to sell, you can sell immediately. Now that can be a bad thing too, because sometimes you're your worst enemy, right? Dr. Wing Lim: [00:12:23] Chicken Little. Gaurav Sobti: [00:12:25] So yeah, like, you know, I would say if you're investing in private, you have to have a longer-term horizon, right? You shouldn't be investing funds that you're going to need anytime soon. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:12:35] So what kind of horizon, What months, years, decades? What are we talking about? Gaurav Sobti: [00:12:40] Well, definitely years for sure. Like, you know, obviously it depends on what you're investing in. But, you know, the thing is like public, you can literally buy something today, can sell it tomorrow, I might sell it for a loss, but I can sell it tomorrow. Right? Private securities, you don't necessarily have that liquidity. There are, there's I mean, we can probably for another conversation, there is a whole area called secondaries in the private markets, which does provide liquidity. But that's, again, that's probably too much for this conversation at this point in time. In general, private securities are less liquid. The other thing is transparency. Now, depending on the group you're investing in, right, like, you know, it's less regulated. So there's going to be, there can be less transparency around it. With public you have to file your statements quarterly. You're dealing with the regulator. Private overall is just less regulated and there can be less transparency. Like you could, you could just get into a deal with like, for example, a local developer. There could be, you know, very limited transparency around it. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:13:46] So in your experience, what's the split that, like most people, do they do like 80% of their money in public, 20% in private? What's your feel, like an average professional. Gaurav Sobti: [00:14:01] That's a tough question, but I would say it really depends on your own personal circumstances. And your need for liquidity. You know, that being said, I don't think you should be 100% in private, right? I think the public markets do, there is a role for them. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:14:20] Right. Gaurav Sobti: [00:14:22] And so it's, I would say, what I can tell you is that like, for example, the pension fund that I worked for, we had 35% in privates, right? So 10% was in private equity. 10% was in public equity, not public equity sorry, infrastructure, and 15% was in real estate. So I think if you look at a lot of the pension funds, you can pull up their reports, right, for Canada. Like I would say, they're anywhere between, you know, 30 to 50% in privates. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:14:55] Right. I think for most physicians, we don't, like we don't do day trading. We don't have time to do that. We're long-term. We're building up the nest egg for retirement for us and in intergenerational wealth. So for long-termers, you think it's a good idea, right, to... Because these are longer horizon, like you said. Gaurav Sobti: [00:15:16] Well, I think physicians, like the advantage they have is, you know, especially in Canada they're, generally if you're a physician, you're a physician for a very long time period. Right? You have very predictable earnings. And it's almost like a bond, right, in itself. Like that cash flow stream. So because of that, you can probably rely on that more than, let's say, other professions. Right? You know there definitely is a case to be made to invest more in private securities. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:15:49] Sure. So let's dive into it. So how can an average Joe get involved in private securities and where do they find them or what kinds are there? Gaurav Sobti: [00:15:59] So I mean, you know, some of the private wealth managers or investment managers, they may have a private offering. I will caution you that, you know, sometimes these guys are just trying to sell private securities for the sake of almost as - well I'm not sure what the right, I don't want to use the word gimmick - but they're just like, okay, we know private securities is hot. Let's get someone into, let's get these guys into private securities, but they don't necessarily know how to do actually, honestly, the proper due diligence is one. And frankly, they probably overly diversify. So when I was at the pension fund, for example, we actually ran a very concentrated private equity book where we invested inside fund managers. And then we also did direct deals alongside the fund managers. And the reason we were concentrated is because if you have like, let's say, 40 managers that you're investing in, well, they're going to have multiple funds that invest in, you know, 8 to 15 companies each, right? So that's just, like you're just overly diversified. You're probably going to end up, after all the fees are said and done, you're just going to end up getting like an ETF type return. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:17:21] Well that's exactly - I totally agree with that. And actually, it's not just me. So last time we interviewed Brandon Carlson. He's a portfolio manager and the podcast just got released. And so we asked him, I actually interviewed him in December and say, what's 2023 going, right? Where's the public markets going? And he's just saying exactly that because it's a zoo out there. So he says, if I were to predict where Fortune 500, half of this is going this way, half of that going that way. And if you just do a very broad-based diversification like index fund, you end up with the very mediocre thing, which is, you know, not much different, right? But then if you become more selective and you're not just picking average Joe, you actually need to understand what they do. And become more select, more focused. Then you probably win, right? So I guess that applies to private equities then? Gaurav Sobti: [00:18:17] No, definitely. Yeah. Like, so that's one thing to consider. You don't want to be overly diversified either because if you're trying to, you know, the whole one of the reasons to invest in private is to get that additional return. And if you just end up overly diversifying there, it kind of defeats the purpose. Right? And honestly, you have to just, depending on who you're investing with, like you might be able to find like a manager that you can invest directly who invests in companies. Right? Or you can invest through what is known as a fund of funds. So the fund, they create a fund like a feeder fund, which invests in a variety of managers. And honestly selecting the right manager to invest in, there is a skill to that. And there is a process. But if that manager is investing in, if your fund a fund is investing in too many managers and then they're laying on too many fees, then again, you're just going to end up with a ETF return, right? Dr. Wing Lim: [00:19:18] Right, exactly. Now let's pivot and move into that space, into more day-to-day. Who would end up buying these funds from. And there's a, one of the hot, hot, at least in my experience and in my space, but one of the hot, hot things is real estate, right? Real estate funds is part of this private equity. And they're a big chunk of real estate. And so I think you and I are both passionate in this space. And there's a lot of capital raised. There's a lot of good returns. So how would you describe the space right now, this real estate fund space. Is it expanding? Is it hot? Is it worth getting into it? Gaurav Sobti: [00:19:55] Definitely expanding. The whole alternatives is expanding and real estate is probably, you know, I haven't looked at the statistics, but it's probably one of the largest private asset classes. Right? And there are more private funds kind of showing up. Yeah, so you could find a manager to invest with. You could find a sponsor to invest in. You could go through an EMD as well, right? EMDs have different products on their shelves. But again... Dr. Wing Lim: [00:20:30] Let's talk about EMDs, that's a good catch phrase. Right? So what does EMD mean and what are they? What do they do? Gaurav Sobti: [00:20:40] Yeah. So Exempt Market Dealer - I was actually formally registered as an Exempt Market Dealer back in 2015 and I'll be honest, I didn't fully understand it at that point. I was maybe 25, 26. I just had the right credentials and someone got me registered. I got to learn about this space a lot later on, right? And think I have a better appreciation for it. So yeah, so an EMD is an exempt market dealer. From my understanding these are groups that are essentially allowed to raise capital in the exempt market space. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:21:12] So why, exempt from what? Gaurav Sobti: [00:21:14] From a prospectus. So when you're raising capital, there's, if you raise capital in the public markets, you have to prepare what is known as prospectus. Which is essentially a legal/marketing document to go public. When you raise money in the in the private markets, there's various exemptions that you can rely on to raise that capital. And, you know, one is, you know, friends and family, another is the accredited investor exemption. Right? And so if you're, I would say EMDS, one) from a from an issuer point of view, from like a sponsor point of view, if they're raising capital on a very frequent basis, then I believe they need to use an EMD right, to stay on with regulation. But EMDs also provide products to potential investors, right? So they have products on their shelves that they essentially sell. So you know, we've done our due diligence. We've approved them. And here you can invest in this product. That being said, I would say, I would caution you coming from a pension background and coming from learning from a mentor who really taught me how to do diligence and having an audit background, I personally would be skeptical of an EMD's, like how much diligence have they truly done? Right? There's probably some out there that are great, but there's some out there that are just pure salespeople who don't really understand the risk, haven't really done significant amount of diligence. Right? And frankly, they're probably not even investing their own capital in the opportunity. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:22:53] So basically, to recap, EMD in my mind, is more like a brokerage house that they have a product shelf and then the different products and these are all private equity products. Gaurav Sobti: [00:23:06] Yeah, that's a... Dr. Wing Lim: [00:23:07] So to speak. Gaurav Sobti: [00:23:08] That's a good way to sum that up. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:23:09] Good way to sum that up, right? So versus you go to mutual funds manager or advisor mutual funds. So that's all the public equities. Most average financial planners will sell you public equities, right? And the private equity salespeople are the... DRs. Right? So, and I don't know how everybody's exposure is, there more and more DRs because there are more and more projects. So other than EMDs, would there be some funds that people can buy directly or like, say, from this what you call sponsor, like the developer, the issuer they call them? Or what about a REIT? Can people just directly buy from these people? Gaurav Sobti: [00:23:48] Well, even if you invest in a private REIT, for example, most likely that private REIT is raising capital on a frequent basis. There will be an EMD involved. Like for example, I was just more curious, I won't name the shop, but, you know, I was just very curious about a certain apartment sort of issuer. Right? Private issuer. So I just, you know, I reached out to them. They immediately, you know, directed me to a third party EMD who I had a chat with about the suitability, first of all, about the opportunity. But whether it's suitable for me. Right. So chances are, if you're dealing with somebody who's raising capital on a very frequent basis, you will get in touch with an EMD. You can invest in projects directly without an EMD, right? But then the issuer has certain responsibilities. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:24:41] So you talk about accredited investors, right? So think a lot of EMDs, they look for doctors because we are mostly high net worth, right? So can you briefly just tell the audience what's the space about accredited versus non accreditors, the eligible to like, where do they make the cut-off? But do we fit? Gaurav Sobti: [00:25:01] So accredited investors, I mean... You know I think it's you have to have $1 million in net financial assets that can include your house or you have to make, you know, $200,000 individually or $300,000 with a spouse. And I believe it's like a two-year cut-off. And you have to believe that it's going to persist, right? So that's kind of the definition of accredited. So most doctors, you know, even if they don't meet the financial, the net financial asset test, they'll generally make it on the income test. Right? And then, you know, there's obviously a path forward to get to that net financial asset test as long as they, you know, continue to save money and invest properly. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:25:41] Right. And then for those of us who are a little bit more exposed, I don't know about the audience, but certainly I'm very familiar with this space. So they promise a lot of returns, double-digit, like 8, 9% prep and then back end. So we end up with 15, 20, 20+ percent. So do you think those are realistic? Are these real? Are they true or are they poo? Gaurav Sobti: [00:26:05] Yeah, I mean, I think I think they can be realistic, but, you know, definitely there can be a game to it as well, right? Like you can, you know, you can put together a model, right? And, you know, you can make whatever assumptions you want and you can create that 20% potential return. But I think you have to, like I think there's a few things you got to look at. What I look at, for example, is like definitely I want to have alignment of interest with whoever I'm investing with. I want to make sure that they have skin in the game, you know, whether it's through investing cash, hard cash in the deal, plus, you know, potentially putting up their guarantee. Right? They don't always have to have everything, but there's got to be some level of alignment of interest. And then you want to see what kind of, do they only talk about the potential gains, do they even mention any of the risk? What's their track record? Have they done it before? Right? And so those are kind of some of the critical pieces. Do they understand financing? I think that's pretty, especially in real estate that's very important. So I've met with Bob Dylan, for example, from Main Street, right, which is the company. He's very successful. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:27:22] Big guy Gaurav Sobti: [00:27:24] Big personality type. And you know, he said like, you know, in this business, you know, you make money on the buy - and again he's more value-add apartments - you make money on the buy, you make money on the financing. You'd be surprised how few sponsors, like how little finance knowledge they actually have and how little knowledge they have related to like even financing. Like I was, people send me opportunities to look at from time to time and, you know, I kind of give my input, right? Like I try to give my unbiased opinion. And someone showed me an opportunity in Winnipeg and it was $100 million project and they were using an interest rate that was like 2% below the current market, right? And so it's like, do you not understand? Like, you know what I mean? Like, you should have this basic understanding. And the other thing I would say is you have to see like, listen, you're going to pay fees, right? Whether you invest in the public markets, if you invest your manager or you invest in private, there are going to be fees. And sometimes the fees in privates are going to be higher. It is more work to put a deal together versus just investing in a stock. But is there an alignment of interest? Like is there a preferred return, for example? Right. I was just looking at another opportunity the other day for somebody and, you know, these guys were taking 40% sweat equity, no preferred return. And they didn't, it didn't seem like they were really putting any cash in the deal. So these are some of the things you should look for, right, when you're kind of evaluating somebody. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:29:01] Right. So to recap what you say, well, they give you very attractive return while some of those are actually true. But there's a lot of stuff hidden behind that is all by assumption. And we have to do some sort of a due diligence. Gaurav Sobti: [00:29:16] Or you have to get somebody who knows how to do it. Like, you know, like-- Dr. Wing Lim: [00:29:19] Because they-- Gaurav Sobti: [00:29:19] -- who can do it for you. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:29:21] Or you have to find somebody who could do the due diligence, short for DD, right, a proper DD. So of course with your background being an accountant, auditor and with your CFA, of course you would know how to crunch numbers. How would average Joe Doctor know whether the salesman across the table knows what they're talking about? Gaurav Sobti: [00:29:43] I mean, I would say you got to educate yourself, right? So if you want to take the path where you're going to do it on your own, then you definitely have to educate yourself. And it's not that it can't be taught, but you have to invest in that process. You know, despite being relatively educated, right, on the financial side, you know, I think anybody is capable of learning something. But they have to they have to have the time. And they have to commit to it. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:30:11] Right, exactly. Now, so we have actually gone over time, but I want to switch over and spend a little bit of time about institutional-grade real estate investment. So that's part of our topic. So what would you say is the institutional-grade real estate investment project? Well, you can. Gaurav Sobti: [00:30:29] Think of institutional grade as generally, I mean typically they are larger assets, but I mean I think you can do it on a small scale too. You just have to have some of the same structures, right? So when, let's say when you're valuing an opportunity, is there a preferred return built in? That's one, that's probably, you know, that's typically a sign of, that's like an institutional concept, right? If they don't have that, then it's definitely not meeting that test, right? Dr. Wing Lim: [00:31:00] So to me, institutional grade is what institutional funds would buy, right? So that or they would sell, right? And so if somebody builds a project and they would the institution would smell you and say, I want to buy you out, then, you know, you got institutional grade real estate, right? Because you're worth pursuing. But it's different, right? Because we, most doctors have one, two, three, 20 doors of condos or houses. And so these are moms and pops, right? And there's a different level, which is the bigger, more sophisticated real estate. Gaurav Sobti: [00:31:34] So yeah, generally larger assets for sure are considered more institutional grade for sure. Yeah. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:31:39] And the returns are different. The effort is different, right. And so that would be a discussion for a different day. Okay, so, one final question. So yeah, you already answered some of that for us, what's the next step if we're interested in this or - our audience is diverse, I know some of the audience already talked to you one on one - some already have a huge portfolio and they're actually walking into institutional-grade already. So what's next for people like that or for the average doctor if they want to expand? Gaurav Sobti: [00:32:14] Yeah, I mean you can consider investing in, like these GPLB structures, right? Just kind of keep kind of some of the things that I said in mind, right, when you're kind of evaluating these opportunities. And, you know, there are, you could talk to an EMD. But just again, if you're talking to an EMD I would say make sure that they're investing their own capital in those same opportunities. That's probably one of the first questions to ask them. And really understand their due diligence process and who's doing their due diligence. Dr. Wing Lim: [00:32:46] Yeah. Okay, good. Thank you, Gaurav. It's a lot of questions. It's a lot for people who haven't heard about this quite a bit. Dr. Kevin Mailo: [00:32:54] Thank you so much for listening to the Physician Empowerment podcast.

[00:00:16] doing we're recording finally, there were some hiccups that I think you want to talk about. [00:00:22] Brett: [00:00:22] so many hiccups. I mean, scheduling a loan. [00:00:25] Christina: [00:00:25] I know. [00:00:26] Brett: [00:00:26] I'll be lucky if this act, if you're listening to this on Friday, something went really well. There's a good chance. That's episode comes out on Saturday. There's also a good chance. That's only 30 minutes long because we're busy people and things got, uh, just what's the word for when everything goes sideways.

So anyway, w last time when we first tried to record this episode, I, I got on and there was this loud hissing that I just assumed was Christina, and then it wasn't Christina. [00:00:59] Christina: [00:00:59] It's a [00:01:00] good assumption, but it was not this case. It was actually not my fault. [00:01:03] Brett: [00:01:03] And I, I th so I want to talk about cable management. Uh, I want to come back to this topic, but I ended up taking everything apart. Like I have so many boxes and cables that everything plugs into trying to figure out where this was coming from. And the thing was it's only in Skype and the audio recorded from the microphone while on the Skype call has no hits at all. [00:01:29] And it's all very confusing, but I had a zoom call right after and the audio is fine. So if you could talk to Microsoft about this, um, it's Skype, it's all Skype [00:01:42] Christina: [00:01:42] Okay. Um, if I knew the Skype [00:01:45] people, I would, and I think they would probably politely listen, but I'll try. [00:01:49] Brett: [00:01:49] when it does that thing. When you end a call and it says, how was the quality of your [00:01:53] Christina: [00:01:53] Oh yeah. I can do like one. [00:01:56] Brett: [00:01:56] I'll I'll do it. It's it's it's my problem. I'll take care of [00:02:00] [00:02:00] Christina: [00:02:00] I'll do it too. And then I'll write it. [00:02:01] I'll be like, you're doing something to our audio and we don't know What it is because it's recording cleanly, but you're adding noise and we don't like it.

Welcome to episode 60 of The Bitcoin Game, I'm Rob Mitchell. I'm happy to bring to you part two of my interview with Cypherpunk and CEO of Blockstream, Dr. Adam Back. In this episode, we take a deep dive into Liquid, Blockstream's new federated sidechain. There's a lot more to Liquid than I realized, and it's fascinating to hear tons of details about the protocol. I lead us astray with some of my questions, but Dr. Back never fails to drop tons of crypto-knowledge. And if you missed the first part of my interview, give episode 59 a listen to hear a great Cypherpunk history lesson.

  Your Listening to the Street Smart Wealth Podcast, show 101   Sometimes new people can struggle with how to explain what network marketing is, or whether it is really a legitimate business model.   On today’s show, I want to share some thoughts on how Network Marketing stacks up to Real Estate and Franchising and give you some language you can use that just plain makes sense.   Welcome to the show!    I’m doing a special series of webinars this week, Mindshift to Millions, how to get UNSTUCK in Your Direct Sales Business.   Get registered - http://JackieUlmer.com/mindshift   Even if you can’t make it, you need to be registered to get the replay link!   We’ll cover some ideas on how to explain network marketing and even address the pyramid issue.   IF you want even more coaching and insights on how to become a true Network Marketing professional, earning that gangster income, consider joining my coaching community! We cover everything A-Z on Network Marketing and A-Z on Social Media, and how to set up an online marketing system so YOU become the hunted and not the hunter! In other words, people come to YOU, pre-sold on network marketing and pre-sold on a business. Learn more -   JackieUlmer.com/coach   Franchises, Real Estate and Network Marketing similarities   I have had a lot of team partners ask me - how do I explain what we do? What network marketing IS?   Good question because sometimes people really don’t get it, or they’ve had a negative experience or heard someone mention - pyramid.   I’ll share more about pyramids in a minute.   When my husband and I were researching ways to diversity our income, outside of the airline industry and something I could do while still being a full tine mom, we seriously considered franchising . It sure look like an option that might provide what we were looking for in terms of securing our retirement and finances. Since I was extremely skeptical about Network Marketing, and still came into it somewhat kicking and screaming, we were not even SORT OF open to looking at it as a serious option or career profession.  Keep this in mind when someone tells you no! People DO change! As part of our research, we toured the country and visited 3 different franchise headquarters. A few things were always a deterrent to actually jumping in – 1. Start Up costs - it takes a LOT of money, and they are very upfront about the amount of time before you see a return on investment 2. Additional money needed to sustain while in growth mode 3. Time requirement, given that we had not yet started a family As time went by, and we started our family, we became educated and open to the idea of Network Marketing and jumped in with both feet, never looking back! Now, it’s been over 20 years since we’ve had a successful network marketing business and I am so grateful for what I have learned and the income I have made. And, I do like the share the comparison of Network Marketing and franchising. Both have a parent company that provides support, training and essentially a “licensing right” to use their name. With both, it offers a turn key system and if you will just FOLLOW the system, you can’t fail. Even with network marketing. Whenever I am talking to someone interested in my business and they tell me how they have “tried” other network marketing businesses without success, I ask deeper questions, and most specifically want to get to exactly what action steps they have taken. Usually, they have talked to less than 6 people before they quit and yet I hear “Everyone I talked to was not interested. “ Here is what I know - the first 6 people I talked to weren’t interested either. I just kept going. I’m not going to hang the hat of my success on just 6 other people, who have things going on in their lives and between their ears that make them not right for my business! This alone is one of the most powerful things about network marketing and Robert Kiyosaki outlines it in his book - The Business For People Who Like Helping People - in the show notes. He says - Network Marketing is a great business model to teach people the business skills they need to be successful. We recently stopped in a coffee shop in Orange County and I noticed a brochure promoting the franchising opportunity associated with the store so I picked it up.  As we read over it, we had to laugh at what was required, vs what has been required of us to build a network marketing business to a level that essentially offers much more in terms of both income and free time. Here is what the brochure listed, with my network marketing comparisons listed in parenthesis – Own Your Own Franchise – Single or Multiple Stores (wow, I have thousands of “stores” with my networking business) Proven Business System (same with Network Marketing) High Repeat Customer Base (we have thousands of repeat customers monthly) Fun & Friendly Environment (What is more fun than working in my yoga pants at home) Established Company (Established and getting better) Extensive Training (Can’t beat the training and support) We Help You Get Started Site Selection (No comparison, I can work from home, THEIR coffee shop or anywhere in the world. I’ve made calls from the beach!) Lease Negotiations (Well, you may have to get creative for space but you don’t need much!) Store Layout and Design (NON issue) Inventory and Equipment Procurement (stop with the big words…we have online ordering) Customer Service Training (Simple ask - how is that product working for you, my friend?) Marketing and Advertising (We have complete training on that and enjoy teaching others this powerful skill) Ongoing Support (Provided by the company - BAM!!!) Ownership Qualifications (Dude, we own it and we take full responsibility for our success or failure!) Minimum Net Worth of $400k (Have a credit card with room on it, you are qualified!) Liquid Assets of at least $125k ( we want to help you ACHIEVE this!) Strong management, social skills (these will help, and can be learned!) Estimated Initial Investment – ranges from $241,500 to $440,000. Whoa! For less than $1000, in most cases , you can be in profit immediately! Read on… Even more staggering are these numbers - It’s $36,000 just for the franchise fee, and you are locked into a 10 year agreement with the company. And, the reserve the right to terminate the agreement at any time for non compliance. Okay, so what would you rather do? Invest $1000 or so initially along with some ongoing advertising and misc dollars and be in profit VERY quickly, or invest anywhere from 1/4 to 1/2 million dollars and not be in profit for a few years and be  Now, let’s talk about Real Estate and Network Marketing and the two relate.   You can use this as an answer to the pyramid issue, or as a way to  share how we get paid in Network Marketing.   Have you ever bought or sold real estate, or know anyone who has?   Would you describe that as a pyramid, since the broker earns a commission off every sale made by the agents "under" him/her?   Actually, I would call that pretty smart leverage, wouldn't you?   Our profession is VERY much like Real Estate, really.   A real estate agent pays to go to school, pays to set up his/her office and pays all of their own expenses to launch a business.   It is a commission based business, and there are NO income guarantees.   It's all based on hustle. Your own hustle that is!   In our profession, it costs a lot less to get started, and there is actually more income potential through the team building leverage!   If you are using this in response to the pyramid question, be sure to ask first - what do you mean by pyramid? (Never assume, because sometimes it's just a way of describing how it's built, nothing more.)   If they DO mean something negative, just compare to real estate agents and brokers, the costs to start a real estate business and how the pay flows.   ACTION STEPS   Develop some simple language using these concepts so it flows easily off your tongue when the need arises.   Use this as an opening question - have you ever thought about going into real estate or buying a franchise? I’ve found something that pays as well or better, and costs a WHOLE lot less with no risk, would you like to hear more?   iTunes reviews shout out!   Brent Hammon - finally a practical approach. I don’t typically give reviews but I absolutely had to here. Jackie has an incredible, down to earth and realistic style that was worth my while.

Half of England's water companies are now in the ownership of global investment funds. In many cases these corporate bodies are run and financed from abroad behind closed doors. They use a web of companies some in off-shore tax havens to provide a steady flow of dividends to their shareholders. But is their mechanism for generating shareholder income at the expense of the customers who are looking for lower bills and sustained investment in their water supply? Producer: Ian Muir-Cochrane.
