The importance of understanding the risks involved in borrowing against Bitcoin and the need for responsible lending practice is emphasized as well. Takeaways

A raw examination of U.S. taxation's constitutional roots, hidden coercions, and parallels to feudal systems, questioning implied consent and calling for sovereign debate without illusions of freedom.In this episode of The Neoborn Caveman Show, NC delivers a passionate monologue critiquing taxation as an unsigned social contract, tracing its evolution from the U.S. Constitution's Article 1, Section 8 and the 16th Amendment to modern burdens that fund wars and elites. Drawing on cases like Pollock v. Farmers' Loan & Trust Co. and WWII's 94% rates, he argues for explicit consent at adulthood, exposes IRS weaponization, and compares today's multi-layered taxes to medieval feudal dues. Emphasizing pro-human sovereignty, he warns of neo-feudal techno-surveillance merging communism and fascism, urging vigilance to reclaim "We the people" against transnational corruption. Fact-checked insights highlight renunciation hurdles and Locke's tacit consent as presumptive slavery in disguise.Notable Quotes"You are not even allowed to question the system you never ever signed up for?""Social contract theory is a hallucination. It's an assumption, a presumption. Not real.""We the people, the best expression ever since Jesus.""America is the greatest idea ever since Jesus. If you don't believe me, learn history.""If we are not allowed to have a healthy question, we know that we live in tyranny in a totalitarian system against the people by the corrupt, lizard-minded, transnational and treacherous non-human entities and not the people."Support freedom by purchasing Canada's Mirage: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DRYV6VJJ or The Digital Trap: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DYWKLK2R/ and join the show's Patreon for more: https://www.patreon.com/TheNeobornCavemanShowFree speech marinated in comedy.Humanity centered satirical takes on the world & news + music - with a marble mouthed host.Free speech marinated in comedy.Supporting Purple Rabbits.

Ann Pells shows aspiring entrepreneurs how to acquire already profitable, professionally managed small businesses that can net $10K/month—while requiring only about an hour a week to oversee. Drawing on her own journey from financial crisis to portfolio business owner, Ann explains how to find, fund, and operate recession-resistant companies without becoming a full-time operator yourself. On this episode we cover: From pink slip to passive ownershipYears ago, Ann's family was blindsided when her husband was laid off—their only income source at the time. With three young kids, she vowed never to rely on one job again. After trying time-intensive real estate investing, she realized she needed teams and systems to create income without 60–80 hour work weeks. The turning pointFive years ago, she discovered a funding and management team (via a 5‑minute YouTube video) that helped her pay off her house in five years and access $200K for business acquisitions. That same team now helps her—and her clients—find, vet, fund, and manage those businesses. First acquisition Type: Water delivery service (home essentials niche) Structure: Partnered with ~10 existing investors, stepped into a deal mid-process with management team in place. Why that industry: Recession-resistant necessity (like plumbing, HVAC, medical, funeral homes, etc.). Deal sourcing Common public marketplaces: BizBuySell, Website Closers, etc. Ann's management team does the research, shortlists candidates that match her criteria, and later operates the business post-close. Location can be local or remote if a strong manager is in place. Buyer criteria Target: ~25% profit margin Industries with steady demand regardless of economy. Prefer businesses already running well—opportunities to add tech or optimization for increased value at resale. Always buy with an exit strategy in mind (3–5 year horizon), even if planning to hold long term. Financing approaches Revenue-based financing: Loans underwritten on the target business's financials, not the buyer's personal credit. Seller financing where possible. Partnering to share risk and split profits. Her current portfolio 4 operating businesses Purchasing 2 more now Leverages same management/funding network for all deals Practical Advice for Aspiring Acquirers: Think recession resistance: Focus on “needs” industries like home services, healthcare, essentials. Use other people's expertise: Partner with existing managers and acquisition pros—don't try to play every role. Let the numbers guide you: Profit margin, stable cash flow, and solid P&L history matter more than “charm” or trendiness. Ask “How can I?” not “Can I?” — Shifts your brain into solution-finding mode. Top 3 Takeaways: Buying beats building: Acquire something already working with cash flow and processes in place. Partnering & management = leverage: You don't need to personally operate the business to benefit from it. Funding is out there: Revenue-based and seller financing can drastically reduce or eliminate upfront out-of-pocket costs. Notable Quotes: “Instead of telling ourselves we can't, ask: How can I?” “We don't buy to give ourselves another job—we buy with management teams in place so it's hours a week, not hours a day.” “Recession-resistant means: people need it whether the economy booms or busts.” Connect with Ann Pells: Website: lifegiverlegacy.com

Many student loan borrowers are falling behind again, and the impact is more than financial.A recent change in federal law has reshaped student loan repayment, and as collections ramp back up, millions are seeing their credit scores drop. If you're feeling the weight of repayment, you're not alone. Neile Simon joins us today with practical steps to help you regain control.Neile Simon is a Certified Credit Counselor with Christian Credit Counselors (CCC), an underwriter of Faith & Finance.Major Changes in Federal Student Loan RepaymentIn early July, sweeping legislation restructured federal student loan repayment options. Borrowers now face only two choices:Standard Repayment Plan: Lasting 10 to 25 yearsRepayment Assistance Plan (RAP): A 30-year plan with payments based on 1% to 10% of the borrower's income, with a minimum of $10 per monthWhile RAP may seem like a helpful tool, the new law eliminated borrower-friendly plans such as the SAVE plan and many income-driven repayment options. For borrowers who are unemployed or experiencing hardship, this is a significant loss. The end of pandemic-era protections, including deferments, has left many unprepared and falling behind.Adding to the challenge, federal collections resumed on May 5, signaling a firm end to COVID-19 relief. The result? A wave of financial instability.The Credit Score CrisisThe fallout from these changes has been swift and painful. According to AP News, in the first quarter of this year alone:Over 2.2 million borrowers experienced a credit score drop of more than 100 points.Over 1 million borrowers experienced a decrease of more than 150 points.This sharp decline has made it difficult for individuals to secure new credit. Car loans, mortgages, and even rental approvals are now being denied. With limited disposable income, many are forced to choose between paying rent, student loans, or credit cards.More people are relying on credit cards just to cover essentials like groceries and gas. It's a cycle that only deepens their debt and financial stress.How Credit Counseling Can HelpWhile Christian Credit Counselors doesn't directly manage student loans, they play a vital role for those overwhelmed by mounting credit card balances. Neely explains how nonprofit credit counseling agencies bring clarity and relief:One-on-One Counseling: Certified counselors review your debt, income, and budgetDebt Management Plan (DMP): Unsecured debts are consolidated into a single monthly paymentCreditor Negotiation: Lowered interest rates (often between 1% and 12%), reduced monthly payments, and elimination of late feesCommitment to Repayment: This is not a loan, bankruptcy, or debt settlement.

The project, a $4.6 billion public-private partnership, will add two toll lanes in each direction along a 16-mile stretch—from the North Springs MARTA station to just north of McFarland Parkway. Expected to open in 2031, the lanes could save drivers 15 minutes per trip and cut crashes by 8%. Gov. Brian Kemp called it a win for Georgia’s transportation network, while Javier Gutierrez, CEO of SR400 Peach Partners, said the loan is a “game-changer.” Oh, and there’s a transit twist: $75 million will go toward bus rapid transit improvements along the corridor. Optional tolls, faster commutes, and a nod to public transit—progress, right? STORY 2: Mass shooting wounds five soldiers at Fort Stewart  Chaos broke out Wednesday morning at Fort Stewart, southwest of Savannah, when five soldiers were shot in the 2nd Armored Brigade Combat Team area. The alleged shooter, Sgt. Quornelius Radford, 28, was apprehended by 11:35 a.m., thanks to nearby soldiers who tackled and subdued him before law enforcement arrived. Radford, who used a personal handgun, has no combat history but does have a recent DUI on his record. The victims, initially treated on-site, were later transported to Winn Army Community Hospital. Two were sent to Savannah’s Memorial Health for advanced care. All are stable and expected to recover, according to Brig. Gen. John Lubas. Gov. Brian Kemp and Senators Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock expressed their prayers and support for the victims and the Fort Stewart community. The base went into lockdown within minutes, though it was lifted an hour later, except for the combat team complex. Investigators are still piecing together how Radford got the gun onto the base—and why he did it. STORY 3: Developer looking to build industrial park near Ball Ground Cherokee County leaders are gearing up for a public hearing in September to decide whether a developer can build 10 office and industrial buildings near Ball Ground. The Board of Commissioners voted unanimously on Aug. 5 to schedule the hearing for 6 p.m. on Sept. 16 at the Cherokee County Conference Center in Canton. The developer, Ball Ground Business Park, LLC, wants to rezone 69 acres on East Cherokee Drive from residential and office use to light industrial. The plan? Ten buildings, 325,000 square feet total, with 330 parking spaces. The developer insists the light industrial zoning won’t bring noise or odors, but the Planning Commission has already recommended denying the request. Commission Chairman Harry Johnston, however, isn’t sold on the denial. “It’s across from the landfill—the largest east of the Mississippi—and next to a wastewater plant. Industrial use seems logical,” he said, pushing for the additional hearing. Access to the site would include driveways on East Cherokee Drive and Cokers Chapel Road, with deceleration lanes planned to manage traffic.

Break: HISTORY CHEROKEE STORY 4: Cherokee County leaders vote to hold property tax rates steady The Board of Commissioners voted Tuesday to keep property tax rates steady for 2025, holding the maintenance and operations (M&O) millage rate at 5.153 mills. Fire services will stay at 2.888 mills, and the parks bond rate drops slightly to 0.26 mills, for a total of 8.301 mills. Even with no rate increase, rising property values mean the county will collect more tax revenue. For a $500,000 homestead property, that’s about $35.88 more than the rollback rate. Residents voiced concerns about budget cuts, especially to the sheriff’s office, during public hearings. “Don’t tax us into foreclosure,” one resident pleaded. Cherokee still boasts one of the lowest millage rates in metro Atlanta, with the parks bond expected to be paid off by 2029. STORY 5: Woodstock officials celebrate the groundbreaking for Little River Park Woodstock finally broke ground Tuesday on the long-anticipated Little River Park—a project that’s been years in the making. Spanning 110 acres, it’ll be the city’s largest park once finished, complete with a scenic trail hugging Little River, a lake for fishing and kayaking, and plenty more. The land, tucked along Trickum Road, was purchased back in 2017. Fast forward to 2023: 87% of voters said “yes” to a parks bond, giving the city the funds to speed things up. In June, the council approved an $8 million contract to get construction rolling. If all goes as planned, the park opens in late 2026.

We're back with another episode of Dig In or Delete, where Jim Pfeifer and Paul Shannon react to real investment pitches from their inbox and decide whether each one is worth a deeper look or should be deleted on the spot. This week's lineup includes a six-property self-storage deal in Arkansas, a triple-net Starbucks opportunity with a 4.5% cap, and a cash-out refinance pitch for a 68-unit apartment building. Jim and Paul break down the good, the bad, and the questionable, offering LP investors a candid look at how seasoned pros filter their deal flow. You'll hear how they evaluate everything from leverage and cap rate to operator communication and downside protection and why most pitches get deleted without a second thought. Key Takeaways: How experienced LPs quickly filter incoming investment pitches Red flags in deal presentations, underwriting, and language Why triple-net deals aren't always “passive” or low risk What makes storage look appealing—and what might be missing How debt structure and cash-out refinances affect risk profile Why sponsor transparency is often more important than returns What to ask before replying to a deal that lands in your inbox How to build your own “delete” filter to save time and protect capital Disclaimer The content of this podcast is for informational purposes only.
