On Monday Musk made the OpenAI nonprofit foundation an offer they want to refuse, but might have trouble doing so: $97.4 billion for its stake in the for-profit company, plus the freedom to stick with its current charitable mission.For a normal company takeover bid, this would already be spicy. But OpenAI's unique structure — a nonprofit foundation controlling a for-profit corporation — turns the gambit into an audacious attack on the plan OpenAI announced in December to free itself from nonprofit oversight.As today's guest Rose Chan Loui — founding executive director of UCLA Law's Lowell Milken Center for Philanthropy and Nonprofits — explains, OpenAI's nonprofit board now faces a challenging choice.Links to learn more, highlights, video, and full transcript.The nonprofit has a legal duty to pursue its charitable mission of ensuring that AI benefits all of humanity to the best of its ability. And if Musk's bid would better accomplish that mission than the for-profit's proposal — that the nonprofit give up control of the company and change its charitable purpose to the vague and barely related “pursue charitable initiatives in sectors such as health care, education, and science” — then it's not clear the California or Delaware Attorneys General will, or should, approve the deal.OpenAI CEO Sam Altman quickly tweeted “no thank you” — but that was probably a legal slipup, as he's not meant to be involved in such a decision, which has to be made by the nonprofit board ‘at arm's length' from the for-profit company Sam himself runs.The board could raise any number of objections: maybe Musk doesn't have the money, or the purchase would be blocked on antitrust grounds, seeing as Musk owns another AI company (xAI), or Musk might insist on incompetent board appointments that would interfere with the nonprofit foundation pursuing any goal.But as Rose and Rob lay out, it's not clear any of those things is actually true.In this emergency podcast recorded soon after Elon's offer, Rose and Rob also cover:Why OpenAI wants to change its charitable purpose and whether that's legally permissibleOn what basis the attorneys general will decide OpenAI's fateThe challenges in valuing the nonprofit's “priceless” position of controlWhether Musk's offer will force OpenAI to up their own bid, and whether they could raise the moneyIf other tech giants might now jump in with competing offersHow politics could influence the attorneys general reviewing the dealWhat Rose thinks should actually happen to protect the public interestChapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Elon throws a $97.4b bomb (00:01:18)What was craziest in OpenAI's plan to break free of the nonprofit (00:02:24)Can OpenAI suddenly change its charitable purpose like that? (00:05:19)Diving into Elon's big announcement (00:15:16)Ways OpenAI could try to reject the offer (00:27:21)Sam Altman slips up (00:35:26)Will this actually stop things? (00:38:03)Why does OpenAI even want to change its charitable mission? (00:42:46)Most likely outcomes and what Rose thinks should happen (00:51:17)Video editing: Simon MonsourAudio engineering: Ben Cordell, Milo McGuire, Simon Monsour, and Dominic ArmstrongTranscriptions: Katy Moore

SummaryIn this episode, Zinda Law Group CEO and founder Jack Zinda is joined by Lead Trial Lawyer Drew Bell. They discuss common errors from both sides of the courtroom and the lessons they've learned.Discussed in this Episode:Avoid overreachPellet issuesAdvocacy mistakesTelling the storyAsking for moneyAttacking witnessesDiscover battlesAvoid OverreachDrew talks about the concept of “playing it vanilla” when you're a plaintiff lawyer and how that differs from being a defender. As a defender, you're often tasked with finding ways to elicit emotional responses from the jury in a way that masks or avoids the reason for the case. The defender may look for something the plaintiff lawyer presents and may attempt to spin it. Pellet IssuesAs a defender it could be in your best interest to allow the plaintiff lawyer to make mistakes. Allowing the plaintiff to submit evidence that won't help their case or even hurts their case gives you more opportunity to poke holes. Bringing in a pellet council can be a great way to ensure that problems don't slip through the cracks.Advocacy Mistakes“Jury selection is Opposite Day” for defendants. Instead of trying to find jurors who will be favorable to your case, you'll instead want to weed out those who will judge your case most harshly. Some preconditioning can be fine, but it's much more important to get rid of the jurors who are going to kill your case. Telling the StoryOne of the biggest mistakes plaintiff lawyers can make is spending too much time on the story. While it's important to present enough evidence in your case, you have to make sure that you aren't getting lost in the narrative and cause the jury to check out. Jack suggests watching true crime documentaries and watch how they concisely tell the story.Asking for MoneyIf you are able to, you should test your number with an audience. A big mistake can be asking for more than what the jury thinks the case is worth. It's also worth noting that revealing the number too early or too late can cause the defense to attack that number or shock the jury by the number. Getting an expert witness who doesn't have any direct connection to damages awarded can be effective as well. Attacking the WitnessesDon't be a jerk when it comes to attacking witnesses. Just because something was “bad” doesn't mean that it will win over the jury. Jack provides an example of a defense attorney who attacked the plaintiff's mother and how badly it backfired.  Discovery BattlesDrew talks about the balance between having a “scorched earth” amount of evidence vs. running your trial too efficiently and the issues that can result from each side.   You can reach Jack at:jack@zindalaw.com512-246-2224

My deliverance comes from accepting all people, not judging or controlling them.I pray that when I am tempted to speak or act without charity, that God's spirit will correct my thoughts. I pray to be an instrument of love by which people are reminded of their innocence, not an instrument of blame that reminds them of their guilt. I do this for my own sake, that I too might be released from feelings of guilt that would otherwise bind me.It is not my job to monitor anyone's journey, to know what's right or wrong for others, or to try to control their behavior. My salvation lies in deep acceptance of people exactly as they are, that I might know the inner peace that such acceptance brings.Amen.Sometimes, things happen not because you're full of faith, but because you lost itDo not dig up your seed to check on itEvery time you do, you reschedule your harvestKnow that it is working out for youStop dying in the delaysDelays are not deadly; they allow things to growWe don't appreciate things until we grow into itAI (Artificial Intelligence)Use AI to create products around your destruction, delay, and struggleDeaunna's Nonprofit ChallengesI've never done this beforeNiche with no knowledgeBuilding government-compliant and qualified businessesThe phases of starting a nonprofitThe phases of starting a businessStarting a business without a mentorStarting a business with no productsBuilding trust in your brandHow do I make money in businessHow to buy property with and for your businessHow to raise money and get investorsHow to scale your businessHow to build an international businessSince you're struggling, write down what you're struggling with so you can connect the dots going backwards, but get paid while you're strugglingIn oder to win, you've got to get past the struggleThe difference between the poor, middle class, and the wealthy is moneyNot money in the amount; it is money in what your purpose isFor the poor, the purpose of money is to get money to pay for thingsFor the middle class, the purpose of money is to get money to build credit, then go borrow and buy things they can't affordFor the wealthy, the purpose of money is to get money to make more money with that moneyIf you think you're behind time, you can buy your time back, but not if you're poor or middle classIf you think your business is taking too long, you're in the religion of lackAs long as your obstacles are bigger than your God, you have a faith problemConsumerism is convincing people to buy things they don't needOur economy is keeping people poor and middle classIf you're saying your behind time, you're right where they want you to beYou are supposed to be wealthy and leave an inheritanceClosing ThoughtsYour struggle can become profitYour confusion can become an income-producing assetGet to the point where you're investing 40% of your incomeBecome addicted to being blessedDon't struggle anymoreGod has been too goodHe's giving you stuff to win, but you keep being ungratefulSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-secret-to-success/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Bitcoin was built in reaction to all the money printing that went on in the wake of the financial crisis. The Times' headline “Chancellor on Brink of Second Bailout for Banks” was even embedded into the very first block in the blockchain – the genesis block. Here was a money system that nobody, whether government or hacker, could print or debase. The rules were set in code. The inflation rate was clearly laid out. And the system, rather than rely on trust – whether in banks, central banks, payment providers or governments – was based on mathematical proof and computer power.So here is an apolitical, censorship-resistant, trust-less, hard money.And we saw a very good use case for it this week.PayPal plays the cancel gameJournalist Toby Young, who is associate editor of The Spectator, has, for as long as I've known him, been setting up organisations to try and improve people's lives. Disappointed with the lowering of standards in schools, he was one of the founders of the first Free School in West London. In 2020 he set up the Free Speech Union to help defend people threatened with cancellation. And his news and commentary website the Daily Sceptic was born in reaction to all the misinformation and censorship, especially by big tech, that emerged during Covid. Young's views are actually pretty moderate. He's a centre right, old school Conservative. But his ideological enemies do not like him at all and they work tirelessly to bring him down. He has lost something like five jobs because of what he calls the “offence archaeologists” digging up things he said decades ago, quoting them out of context and then being offended.Last week, PayPal, out of the blue, closed down his personal account for “breaching its Acceptable Use Policy”. Then, barely a few minutes later, it shut down the account for his news and commentary website the Daily Sceptic. Then a few minutes after that it closed down the accounts for the Free Speech Union.This is no small disruption, and it undoes the many hours, days, months and years of hard work his team have put in building up their subscriber bases. About a quarter of the Daily Sceptic's donor revenue arrives via PayPal and a third of the Free Speech Union's 9,500 members pay their dues via PayPal, Young says.Young says, “I did some Googling and discovered that numerous organisations and individuals with dissident political views have had their accounts closed by PayPal recently, particularly on the three issues you're not allowed to be sceptical about: the lockdown policy and other Covid restrictions, the mRNA vaccines, and the ‘climate emergency.The Daily Sceptic frequently publishes articles on those subjects and the Free Speech Union may have fallen foul of another taboo – defending people who've got into trouble with HR departments for expressing their gender critical views.” How is PayPal able to do this without warning? Because it can.Young is by no means the first. It did the same thing to Wikileaks in 2010, probably under pressure from the US government about whom Wikileaks was disclosing unwanted information. (Unfortunately, this backfired as donors began using bitcoin and the bitcoin Wikileaks received rocketed in value to make Wikileaks a potentially very rich organisation (assuming it managed to hold on to some of them).It did the same to Alex Jones. Earlier in the year it cancelled academic and biologist Colin Wright for articulating his criticisms of the view that sex is a social construct. Just yesterday Us For Them, the parent group which campaigned to keep schools open during Covid lost their account, and so did another group Gays Against Groomers.PayPal founder Peter Thiel is an outspoken libertarian and probably on the same philosophical side of the argument as Young, but he is also a businessman. Paypal will do whatever is asked of it in order to survive. You can be sure that, in order to survive as a business and effectively become a challenger bank, especially early in its evolution, it will have had to demonstrate that it could not be used as a vehicle for any kind of illicit activity, especially money-laundering, and this is why it can be so stringent. It will toe the line wherever necessary.But Thiel is no longer Paypal's CEO and, like so much of big tech, what started out one way is now not on board with the free speech ideals of its founders, as evidenced by all the censorship that goes on. Indeed more and more evidence is growing that big tech, especially Twitter, is censoring content according to the instructions of the US government.A number of prominent individuals have spoken up in favour of Young - from Lord Frost to Joanna Clery to Luke Johnson - and a number of others have closed their PayPal accounts, so it may be that the Young accounts get re-instated under pressure.But the moral of the tale remains. You are using trusted third parties that can no longer be trusted. If you use non-government money - ie bitcoin - the taps cannot be turned off quite so easily.The Flying Frisby is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Separating money and stateMore than anything else, in every book or every column I've ever written , I have argued for one thing: the separation of money and state.When one body in a society has the ability to create money at little or no cost to itself, it is inevitable that body will have disproportionate power and influence within that society. If you are looking to understand how it is the state in western societies has grown to be so enormous - something like 50% of GDP compared to the 10% area it occupied at the turn of the 20th century - then look no further than our system of fiat money.If you want to understand the inequality gap, why young people can't afford a house, all that - look no further than our system of moneyIf you are looking to understand why western families so small, look no further than our system of money, in which government now owns more than 50% of your labour.  The primary reason given when asked why people have small families is that they can't afford bigger ones. Both parents are having to work. The government - at over 50% - is their biggest cost. Only the very bottom on large welfare and the very rich can afford big families The 90% in the middle can't. So we import our youth from abroad instead and then wonder why British culture is being eroded away. It's the same across the west.Of course some states are more benign than others and our 21st century social democracies, for all their woeful waste, are preferable to many of the governing systems found in other, more tyrannical corners of the earth, but the damage has still been enormous and now we seem to be careering towards a far more nefarious destination.Money should just be money - a means of exchange, a store of value and a unit of account. Instead it has become a tool of government. A weapon of government.Whether it is suppressing interest rates to boost the housing market, printing money to bail out banks or the entire economy during Covid or freezing the accounts of political enemies (the truckers in Canada, or the entire country that is Russia), finance is being weaponised. Governments weaponise money because it is an easy tool for them to get the results they want quickly. It's a lot easier to sanction Russia and freeze it out of the banking system than it is to go to war. It's easier to cut off the truckers' funding than it is to confront them. It's a lot easier - and quicker - to print the money you need to bail out the banking system than it is to collect it in taxes – which is what rulers from another age would have had to do. It's a lot easier to suppress interest rates and collect the inflation tax than it is to impose direct taxes or rein in spending.But the net result of all of this is that money gets debased, the state grows and is empowered, the inequality gap gets bigger, freedom is eroded, families get smaller, nobody can afford a house and yet more government becomes the answer to everything. We get top down diktats instead of bottom up growth. One decision up top counts for way more than the aggregation of millions of individual decisions from the bottom. And so on.The weaponisation have money has already begun. The irony of such actions is that, as with Wikileaks, they will accelerate the adoption of censor-free, non-state alternatives, of which bitcoin is the most prominent example. The US, by confiscating Russian dollars and freezing it of the banking system, will accelerate the creation of a non-US international system of money to be used by nations, especially Russia and China, that do not want to be beholden to the dollar. In the long term it may backfire, but in the short term it works: it shuts off the funding taps and creates considerable hardship and inconvenience.What to do? I use Paypal all the time, as buyer and seller. It's convenient. But I really should switch to another payment processor. The others may not be as censorious as PayPal, but they will be if pressured, you can be sure of that. Do not leave large amounts of money with these companies.As we head into a cashless society we are even more vulnerable. This is why the prospect of central bank digital currencies, which, by the way, are almost inevitable - technology is destiny - fills me with such dread. Programmable money will give the state even more control and influence. Your every transaction can be monitored, putting us in the world of Orwellian surveillance states. Certain transactions could simply be outlawed. You might not, for example, be able to buy from or sell to bodies that are not government approved. Taxes and fines can be deducted without your approval. Central bank digital currencies give huge scope to behavioural economists and the ministries of nudges. You can be goaded into all sorts of decisions you might not otherwise have made. Social credits systems can be imposed. Are you a good citizen? Then you get the favourable rate of interest, good loan deals and other incentives. Do you articulate wrong-thought on the internet? Did you not have the vaccine, like we asked you to? Are you suggesting the climate emergency is not real? Then you will be given less favourable rates. If you are a really naughty boy, your account might be frozen altogether.I gather that the European Central Bank and perhaps even the Bank of England already have the tech ready to go for CBDCs. They are just waiting for the crisis to implement them.In such a world, and that does seem to be where we are heading, there is a very strong use case for bitcoin. I urge you to own some.If you are in London or nearby on September 28 or 29, please come to my lecture with funny bits, How Heavy?, about the history of weights and measures. It's in the West End at the Museum of Comedy and it's a 7-8pm show so you can come along and go out for dinner after. You can buy tickets here. This is a very interesting subject - effectively how you perceive the world. Hope to see you there.If you want to buy physical gold silver, my recommended bullion dealer is the Pure Gold Company with whom I have an affiliation deal.If you want to buy bitcoin, my guide is here:The Flying Frisby is a reader-supported publication.

What is the purpose of having wealth? Some people use their wealth benevolently to give back to society. Others use it to create generational wealth for their kids and future generations. Building wealth is an integral part of our society; however, looking ahead too far in the future can cause us to miss out on what's happening today.The Power of NowIn 'The Power of Now,' Eckhart Toley encourages us to train our minds to become more present at the moment. Toley believes 80-90% of thinking is compulsive and destructive. Compulsive thinking is an addiction where you feel you have no control over it and cannot stop. It gives you a sense of false pleasure that invariably turns to pain. We derive our sense of self from our thinking, and we must keep thinking to keep our ego alive. The ego constantly looks back into the past, projecting ourselves forward.We can also get so caught up in the past and future that we try to convince ourselves into thinking things like, 'Well, just as soon as this happens,' or 'Once I get this job,' or 'Once I do this, then I'll be happy,' but that rarely happens. True liberation, happiness, and peace come from being truly present.Personal WealthThose of us with ADHD are impulsive. We struggle with the purpose of saving money, and every time we start saving, something happens that inevitably throws a wrench in our plan. The next thing we know, we're back to where we were before. It's very frustrating, overwhelming, and annoying!We ask ourselves, 'What should I do to get myself moving in the right direction?' It comes down to building personal wealth, which is not just about money. It's life wealth, financial wealth, a wealth of life experiences, and using money as a tool to help you create the life you want.How Do We Build Financial Wealth?There are three primary ways to increase our wealth:Saving moneyMaking more moneyInvesting in or increasing the return of our moneyIf you're an impulsive spender and make a lot of money, one of the most effective ways to increase your wealth is to save more by limiting the amount of impulsive spending. Get a cheaper car, and start trying to peel back your lifestyle.If you're not making enough money, take stock of your skills. Is there an opportunity to work part-time or start your own business? What about asking your boss for a raise? It's sometimes difficult for us with ADHD to speak up and advocate for ourselves. Find the courage to take stock of what you're good at and get compensated for your work.When it comes to investing,  you need to find a way to make your money do more than sit in a bank account where it's not keeping up with inflation.Remember, building wealth is a journey. Identify opportunities you feel you can tackle, avoid compulsive thinking, and don't forget to be present!If you would like to reach out and ask me a question, contact me on Instagram or my contact page at ADHDMoneyTalk.comReference links:Power of Now by Eckhart ToleyIdeas to Make More Money episode #7Lifestyle Creep episode #15Want to work with me?Check out my ADHD Planning & Coaching service.Help Me Out!Please shareHelping ADHD'ers unleash their financial potential through planning and coaching.DeWittCM.com/adhd to book free discovery session

We're continuing the Rookie Reply Direct Message trend! This week's question comes from Minnie through Tony's Instagram DMs. Minnie is asking: Should you partner with family members when investing in real estate? While this may not be the most fun question that Tony has received in his DMs, it's a very necessary one to answer, as many real estate investors start their journey partnering with family. While at times it can be stressful, working with family can also be rewarding in more ways than just financial. But, if you want to work with someone close to you, be prepared to treat your investment like a business.Here are some suggestions:Treat it like a partnership by signing an operating agreement or joint venture agreement Make sure your family member knows the risk of investing Don't do anyone favors, present great investing opportunities instead of asking for moneyIf you feel like you need to update your partnership agreement, do so quickly and with the consent of your partnersAnd more in the episode…If you want Ashley and Tony to answer a real estate question, you can post in the Real Estate Rookie Facebook Group!

The Beginnings of Purpose (ft. Davin Salvagno)The inaugural show of Season Two of Playmakers introduces our central mission: to live on purpose.OPENING QUOTE:“If each of us could see the difference and the impact we make every single day through the work that we— not have to do, but the work that we get to do— then we would never work a day in our life.”—Davin SalvagnoGUEST BIO:Davin Salvagno is the founder and CEO of PurposePoint, having previously served in leadership roles at Costco, Macy's, and CVS Health. He is also the co-founder of the Purpose Summit, the world's largest purpose-centric event which this year will be held in May at the University of Notre Dame football stadium. Davin is also a thought leader whose book Finding Purpose at Work is essential reading for anyone who wants a career and life filled with purpose and intention.Show Links:PurposePoint BioLinkedInInstagramFacebookBookCORE TOPICS + DETAILS:[5:44] - Defining ImpactDavin gives us a clear, concise, and memorable definitionDavin defines impact as ‘when your life in some way, shape, or form enters the life of another in an indelible way.' Indelible means your impact cannot be expunged, cannot be erased. When thought of this way, impact takes on a massive sense of responsibility.[10:31] - Be Before You DoLeaders start with who they are, not what they wantDavin says that “Great leaders be before they do.” That means that before leaders begin making requests and moving resources, they first must live their purpose, embrace their gifts and talents, and find their ‘why.' Without that, they're just managers— not true leaders of others or even themselves.[24:44] - Lessons from RockyLessons on moving forward from our favorite fictional boxerIn a recent installment in Sylvester Stallone's Rocky franchise, Rocky Balboa tells his son, “It's not about how hard you can hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.” What could we accomplish in our lives and careers if we got back up just one more time after being knocked down by circumstances or mistakes? When we find our purpose, we have the inspiration to find out.[31:10] - What Good Looks LikeA powerful North Star to followDavin Salvagno has spent his entire career on the hunt for ‘what good looks like'— so much so that he named his podcast after that search. When we look around us for true acts of goodness, whether in our personal lives or in the behavior of great organizations, we discover guiding principles we can follow to transform our lives and the lives of others for the better.[36:03] - The Purpose of Every CompanyHint: it's not making moneyIf you want to launch or grow an organization around purpose, ask yourself these questions— how is it making a difference? How is it altering the course of people's lives or moods in some positive way? As Patrick Lencioni says, ‘The purpose of every company is to improve the quality of human life in some way.' If you focus on that first, other important measurements like profits, growth, and more will follow— and you and your organization's members will be more fulfilled along the wayRESOURCES:[1:14] Purpose Point[1:22] Purpose Summit[13:54] The Power of Playing Offense[29:50] Writing of Marcus Buckingham[31:10] What Good Looks Like, Podcast by Davin SalvagnoFollow Davin:PurposePoint BioLinkedInInstagramFacebookBookFollow Paul:Playmakers PodcastThe Power of Playing OffenseLinkedInFacebookTwitterInstagramYoutubeSHOW PARTNER:The WHY InstituteAre you ready to find your ‘why'?

Money stories. Many of the ones our society is swimming in are toxic. In order to change those stories and create healthier structures, we need to consciously engage them as individuals. I have many clients who are working to step out of lack mentality and create a greater sense of abundance in their life. They come from a variety of backgrounds and make anywhere from $0 staring out to 6 figures. The woman I'm coaching in this episode is a current client. She signed up for this session because, though we've already done a fair amount of work around money, she was still finding herself triggered in certain situations and wanted to dig in further.In this episode of Unlimited, you'll hear us explore internalized societal money stories and unlearning them to create mental freedom and empowered choices.Some of what we engage in this episode include:Fear of disappointing familyThe difference between effort and sufferingDefining work and what's valuableChoosing your relationship with moneyIf you want to join the Life Visioning Workshop mentioned in this episode you can sign up HEREWant to come but can't make it? Email me at valerie@valeriefriedlander to let me know you'd like me to host it again!Thank you for listening!
