This week we are joined once again by Kelsey Porter, who used real estate to build a life she actually wants to live. As an investor and realtor out of Des Moines, Kelsey traces how she went from “Is $8,000/month even possible?” to a lean, intentional 10‑door portfolio that pays for things like her wedding, travel, and future family plans.We talk about why financial freedom is a number, not a feeling, and how sitting down in 2020 with a simple spreadsheet—income in, expenses out—led Kelsey to her first financial freedom number of $8,000/month in cash flow. We share how that number initially felt out of reach, what it took to get there faster than expected, and why she later raised the bar.We dive into:Living below your means (even when your income grows)House hacking, renting out your primary, and being a one‑car householdUsing medium‑term rentals and short‑term rentals to get more “juice from the squeeze”Kelsey's nine real estate eras: Disbelief, Hustle, Lucky/Harvest, Enjoyment, Opportunistic, Debt Payoff, Coast, and “Sell It All”The tension between hustling hard and actually allowing yourself to enjoy what you've builtIf you're a woman investing in real estate and you want inspiration, real numbers, and a roadmap for building a small‑but‑mighty portfolio that supports your values (not just your ego), you'll feel right at home in this conversation with Kelsey.

In this episode, Neal and Ryan sit down with Arees Jiwani, President of TM Investments. Arees walks us through his journey from the Ivey Business School to helping build one of Canada's most rapidly growing financial services groups, going from seven employees to over 400 in a decade. We dig into RFA's acquisition of Street Capital, the launch of TM Investments in 2024, and the group's unique capital structure backed by long-term institutional investors and a wealth management arm based in the Cayman Islands.Arees shares why permanent capital is the name of the game in today's private lending market, how TM Investments approaches AA and AAA deals in the competitive GTA space, and where he sees the biggest opportunity hiding in plain sight: the $3 to $4 million home segment in prominent Toronto neighbourhoods. We also cover bridge financing, blanket mortgages, creative deal structuring, and TM's ambitious plans to scale well beyond the $300M mark.Show Notes00:00 Hosts' recap: big goals, permanent capital, and competitive GTA pricing01:30 Interview begins with Arees Jiwani02:13 From the Ivey Business School to RFA: the origin story04:00 RFA's growth story, from 7 employees to 400 in a decade05:39 The three gaps in the private market TM Investments was built to fill08:45 Breaking down the capital and infrastructure gaps in more detail09:44 Inside the Cayman Islands wealth management operation (Five Continents)12:06 The 20+ year investor relationships that anchor RFA13:09 The RFA and Artis REIT merger and TSX listing15:30 How TM Investments establishes truly permanent capital18:31 Why the LP structure won out over the MIC19:31 A walk through the RFA verticals20:55 Ideal borrower profile: business-for-self and bridge financing23:49 Underwriting the exit on bridge deals24:53 The case for blanket mortgages in today's market27:02 Beyond pricing: the step-up rate structure that wins deals30:22 Average mortgage term and payout timing32:05 The hidden opportunity in $3 to $4 million GTA homes37:14 Scale on their terms: the 3 to 5 year vision41:09 Opportunistic capital in a shrinking market42:56 Acquisitions as part of the growth playbook43:31 Bonus question: Flames or Leafs?45:11 Restaurant recommendations in Toronto and CalgaryResources:Keystone Capital GroupCPLP Instagram: @cplpodcastKeystone Instagram: @keycapgroupFind Neal On:Instagram: @neal.andreinoLinkedIn: Neal AndreinoFind Ryan on:LinkedIn: Ryan MacNeilE-mail: ryan@keycap.caENROL IN THE CPL NEWSLETTER:http://eepurl.com/FIKgpXhSbH

Dennis Sewell, Part Two: Sewell details Downing's secret diplomacy with Cardinal Mazarin, followed by his opportunistic defection to Charles II upon Cromwell's death. To secure his position under the restored monarchy, Downing orchestrated the capture and rendition of his former regicide allies. (2)

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 8-20-2026: An emailer asks about amlexanox for mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS). Dr. Dawn first walks through MCAS diagnostic criteria—requiring symptoms across at least two of four categories (skin, low blood pressure, abdominal, respiratory), with serum tryptase testing performed both during and after a flare. She grades amlexanox as a C: originally FDA-approved only as a topical paste for canker sores, later approved in Japan as an asthma treatment, but never validated for MCAS and pushed largely by a single compounding pharmacy and its influencer clones. She recommends conventional agents first—antihistamines, montelukast, cromolyn, quercetin, aspirin for flushing, and Xolair anti-IgE antibodies for severe cases—plus microcrystalline cellulose as the safest capsule filler if compounding of amellanox is pursued. Most ovarian cancers—including nearly all fatal cases—actually originate in the fimbriae of the fallopian tubes rather than the ovaries themselves. Opportunistic salpingectomy tacks a five-minute fallopian tube removal onto any abdominal surgery (tubal ligation, hernia repair, gallbladder, appendectomy), potentially reducing lifetime ovarian cancer risk by 65% -80% based on epidemiological data from Swedish, Canadian, and Danish registry studies. Dr. Dawn recommends particular consideration for non-childbearing women with BRCA1/2 or family history of breast or ovarian cancer. Deep brain stimulator devices manufactured after 2020 (about 40,000 U.S. patients) contain adaptive-DBS capability that can be activated via firmware upgrade without additional surgery. Rather than delivering constant stimulation like older devices, adaptive DBS reads beta oscillations (13-30 Hz motor-control brainwaves) in the basal ganglia and modulates output in real time—reducing stimulation as L-DOPA peaks from drugs and increasing it as medication wears off, smoothing the swings between agitation and freezing. Sleep improvement has emerged as a notable secondary benefit, potentially slowing disease progression. The technology is also being investigated for dystonia, essential tremor, OCD, and Tourette's syndrome. Chinese company StarMed is developing brain-computer interfaces closely resembling Neuralink designs, benefiting from aggressive government funding, large patient populations, and reduced tort liability. One trial uses an eight-probe device placed atop the dura mater (avoiding brain penetration) connected to a pneumatic glove that has restored eating and drinking function in about twenty paralyzed patients over twenty months. A more invasive Shanghai trial implanted 256 probes on the neural cortex of a woman with epilepsy who could operate social media and control a wheelchair within two weeks; a related U.S. system using 65 hair-thin sensors enabled speech with just ten-millisecond delay. An emailer describes recurring two-week viral illnesses (sore throat, swollen glands, congestion, cough, body aches) recurring every 4-6 weeks. Dr. Dawn frames the question as either impaired immunity or changed exposure. She recommends starting with a CBC to rule out blood dyscrasias like leukemia, checking urine mycotoxins for mold exposure, then examining behavioral changes—new job, handling cash before eating, and the well-documented protective effect of masking in public that dramatically reduced cold rates during COVID. Dr. Dawn covers three health policy items. The good: new USDA dietary guidelines flip the food pyramid, putting protein, dairy, healthy fats, vegetables, and fruits at the top, with whole grains reduced to a small band, and it's recommendation 1.2 g/kg protein daily. The bad: an executive order attempting to reduce childhood vaccines from 18 to 11 and separate MMR into individual components—impossible since no U.S. manufacturer makes the individual antigens, and misguided since infant hepatitis B vaccination prevents mother-to-child liver cancer transmission. The ugly: a 26-year-old heart transplant recipient whose insurer initially dropped coverage of her generic anti-rejection drug, then "ghost approved" it at $1,000 for 90 days versus the previous $180. Mark Cuban's Cost Plus Pharmacy now supplies her the same medication for $300 (cost plus 15% profit plus 5% handling), highlighting the massive markups embedded in the standard pharmacy chain. For a time before that, the mother of the heart donor stepped up and paid for the recipients anti-rejection drugs to keep her son's heart beating.

Dublin City Council has suggested limiting access to the Deposit Return Scheme (DRS) to people with are registered with a domestic waste collection company contract as a means of dealing with “opportunistic” bin scavenging.The Council also suggest that with the DRS, there had been “no significant difference” in total street sweepings collected in the city.Janet Horner is a Councilor for Dublin North Inner City and Cathaoirleach for The Green Party. She joined Shane and Ciara to discuss the current issues the Deposit Return Scheme is bringing to the city.

In this episode, Olivia Guthorn, Managing Director in Oaktree's Opportunities Group, describes a credit market at all-time tights that appears to be looking through potentially significant macro risks, while meaningful dispersion builds underneath, particularly in healthcare IT and software. Olivia outlines Oaktree's cautious, highly selective approach to sectors exposed to AI disruption, focusing on businesses with durable characteristics such as proprietary data, strong customer integration, high switching costs, regulatory moats, and sufficient capital to invest in new technology. For healthcare, she draws a sharp distinction between provider IT and payer IT, with the former expected to be more insulated from AI risk and the latter being more exposed given the resources and incentive large national payers have to insource.Olivia discusses how policy changes including the One Big Beautiful Bill's impact on Medicaid reimbursement, potential ACA subsidy expiration, and a growing focus on fraud, waste, and abuse are driving dispersion across subsectors, with med devices and pharma looking relatively more attractive and Medicaid-exposed services remaining challenged. She also touches upon the growing focus on private credit and how the historical notion that private credit doesn't trade is being tested, with trading activity so far remaining limited and orderly but potentially accelerating if redemption pressures increase. She highlights that the next two to three years should represent a significant opportunity for sector-specialist, bottom-up investors in opportunistic credit like Oaktree.

Not everyone seeking proximity is seeking covenant. In this episode, Juliana Page unpacks the spirit of the opportunist—how it operates, why it is so destructive in leadership and ministry, and the consequences it creates in relationships, community, and spiritual environments. This conversation explores the difference between genuine alignment and self-serving ambition, exposing how opportunism often disguises itself as loyalty, support, hunger, admiration, or spiritual passion while quietly pursuing access, influence, validation, or advancement. Juliana addresses: Opportunism vs covenant Selfish ambition and hidden competition Why boundaries expose motives Manipulation, entitlement, and extraction Discernment in leadership and relationships The emotional and spiritual consequences of transactional connections How God develops trustworthy leaders through integrity, humility, and purification of motive This episode is both a warning and an invitation: A warning against using people for personal gain, and an invitation to become a leader whose relationships are rooted in honor, sincerity, maturity, and love.   Join Courage Co. for our special live bonus session on May 21st at 7 PM CT: Metabolize Pain Into Power Some people survive pain.

While there's still a lot of money chasing most quality real estate assets, great opportunities exist for those willing to take more risk with heavier value-add assets. One of the best examples is office buildings in rebounding markets that are selling at 10 to 20 cents on the dollar. Another example is well-located indoor malls that have rebounded and thriving since the pandemic.

### HEADLINE: CROMWELL'S DEATH AND DOWNING'S SECRET DEAL WITH THE KING SUMMARY:Dennis Sewall recounts the "dummy" funeral of Oliver Cromwell and George Downing's opportunistic decision to offer state secrets to the exiled King Charles II. GUEST:Dennis Sewall NUMBER: 11 (11)1806 North End Boston

Retail crime in Canada has reached a critical point. In this episode of The Voice of Retail podcast, host Michael LeBlanc welcomes back Rui Rodrigues, a veteran loss prevention leader and advisor working with the Retail Council of Canada, to unpack the rapidly escalating challenges facing retailers across the country. Rodrigues brings more than 30 years of experience in retail security and loss prevention, having worked with major retailers including Staples, Best Buy, Holt Renfrew and Hudson's Bay before launching his consulting practice. Today he works with retailers across Canada helping them address organized retail crime, risk management, and store safety while also collaborating closely with law enforcement and government partners. The conversation begins with a big picture look at how retail crime has evolved since the early days of the pandemic. Rodrigues explains that theft is not new, but the scale, organization, and violence associated with retail crime has increased significantly. Opportunistic shoplifting remains common, but retailers are increasingly dealing with organized criminal networks that exploit weak legal consequences and sophisticated resale channels. One major driver has been the growth of online marketplaces and social media resale channels, which allow stolen goods to be redistributed quickly and anonymously. Criminal enterprises can now move merchandise without the traditional risk of transporting large volumes across borders. Even more concerning is the growing level of violence and weaponization in retail theft incidents, with security teams reporting machetes, firearms, and bear spray being used to intimidate employees and prevent intervention. Retailers have responded by shifting away from physical apprehension policies in many cases, prioritizing employee safety over recovering merchandise. But Rodrigues also shares reasons for optimism. Over the past three years, the Retail Council of Canada has built a national retail crime task force, bringing together more than 30 police services along with retailers and prosecutors to coordinate intelligence and enforcement actions. Initiatives such as Project Retail Blitz focus targeted operations on repeat offenders and organized retail crime groups. The discussion also explores the growing political recognition of the issue. Retail leaders have recently met with federal and provincial governments to push for stronger legislation, including reforms aimed at organized retail theft and repeat offenders. According to Rodrigues, the goal is not only stronger laws but consistent enforcement and a structural approach to retail crime across police and prosecution services. The episode concludes with a preview of the upcoming Retail Secure Conference, where industry leaders, law enforcement, and policymakers will gather to share best practices and strategies for tackling retail crime and improving community safety. Michael LeBlanc is the president and founder of M.E. LeBlanc & Company Inc, a senior retail advisor, keynote speaker and now, media entrepreneur. He has been on the front lines of retail industry change for his entire career. Michael has delivered keynotes, hosted fire-side discussions and participated worldwide in thought leadership panels, most recently on the main stage in Toronto at Retail Council of Canada's Retail Marketing conference with leaders from Walmart & Google. He brings 25+ years of brand/retail/marketing & eCommerce leadership experience with Levi's, Black & Decker, Hudson's Bay, CanWest Media, Pandora Jewellery, The Shopping Channel and Retail Council of Canada to his advisory, speaking and media practice.Michael produces and hosts a network of leading retail trade podcasts, including the award-winning No.1 independent retail industry podcast in America, Remarkable Retail with his partner, Dallas-based best-selling author Steve Dennis; Canada's top retail industry podcast The Voice of Retail and Canada's top food industry and one of the top Canadian-produced management independent podcasts in the country, The Food Professor with Dr. Sylvain Charlebois from Dalhousie University in Halifax.Rethink Retail has recognized Michael as one of the top global retail experts for the fifth year in a row, the National Retail Federation has designated Michael as on their Top Retail Voices for 2025, Thinkers 360 has named him on of the Top 50 global thought leaders in retail, RTIH has named him a top 100 global though leader in retail technology and Coresight Research has named Michael a Retail AI Influencer.

OpenAI's Pentagon Backlash, Microsoft's "MicroSlop" Filter, Apple M5 MacBook Pro Price Hikes, and Washington's Microchip Ban Jim Love covers backlash to OpenAI's rapid Pentagon deal announcement, with Sam Altman admitting it looked opportunistic as ChatGPT uninstall rates and one-star reviews spiked while Anthropic's Claude gained installs; OpenAI then revised contract language to state its AI won't intentionally be used for mass domestic surveillance or by agencies like the NSA without separate approval. He also discusses reports that Microsoft's Copilot Discord filtered the term "MicroSlop," prompting user workarounds and a server lockdown that Microsoft said was an anti-spam measure. Apple's new M5 MacBook Pro lineup adds higher default storage, claims faster internal storage and ~20% GPU gains, but raises prices and introduces a pricier Studio Display XDR with optional nano-texture.

The end of the year has come.  As is the case every year, 2025 was filled with some ups and downs.  For the Camerosity Podcast, we reached the 100 episode milestone, saw a huge influx of Miranda cameras re-enter the used camera market, and a whole lotta pictures of manatees. For Episode 102, the gang got together with some holiday themed alcoholic beverages and discussed what last minute bouts of GAS we had, and other bits of nonsense we were up to.  Joining Anthony, Paul, Stephen and Mike were returning callers A.J. Gentile, Leon Blankenhorn, Pat Casey, Will Pinkham, William Ponder, and first time callers Joao Gomes and Ron Gee. In this episode we start right off with recent pickups, Paul is enamored with his Hasselblad digital back which he has almost permanently mounted to his 907x, calling it the best digital camera he's ever shot.  A recent pickup of a Hassy 65mm f/2.8 lens further cemented it for him.  Pat Casey talks about his love for 3x4 Graflexes and first time caller Ron Gee is excited for his new Aero Liberator camera he ordered from John Minnicks. We discuss the shift of German cameras being made in countries other than Germany, why West German companies made so many leaf shutters and seemed to be reluctant to adopt focal plane shutters, and Mike (poorly) attempts to explain the confusing history of the Voigtländer Bessaflex, Zeiss-Ikon Icarex and SL706, Voigtländer VSL series and Rollei SL35 series SLRs. Mike shares his two most recent pickups, the first is the brand new and recently released LOMO MC-A which is an impressive premium point and shoot camera and he feels is the best example we've seen so far of what a brand new premium 35mm camera should be.  His other pickup is a rather ordinary Vivitar XC-3 with the unordinary XC-A accessory which kinda sorta adds Aperture Priority Automatic Exposure to a camera which wasn't built with it. Anthony talks about a $25 Nikonos III he recently picked up and used to take some of the best photos he's ever taken of manatees in the spring by his house.  He also shares with us his oddest camera, the Kirka Electronik Auto Hobby Emergency Car Camera Kit. And right before we were about to sign off, Ron Gee drops not one but two of the largest 6x17 and 6x24 3D printed cameras any of us have seen.  With names like Sasquatch and Kracken, these large beasts are not to be taken lightly!

Criminals are always adapting. Whether it's copper wiring stripped from job sites or porch pirates grabbing deliveries in broad daylight, they keep finding new ways to take what isn't theirs. But maybe prevention isn't about harsher punishment or more cameras. Maybe it's about smarter design and understanding what drives people to steal in the first place. My guest today is Dr. Ben Stickle, a professor of criminal justice at Middle Tennessee State University and one of the country's top researchers on property crime. Before entering academia, he worked in law enforcement, which gives him a rare mix of real-world perspective and research-based insight. His work on metal theft, catalytic converter crime, and package theft sheds light on who's actually committing these offenses, what motivates them, and which prevention methods truly work. We discuss how fluctuating metal prices influence theft rates, why cameras often fail to stop certain crimes, and how a few simple design changes to your home can make a real difference. Dr. Stickle also shares unexpected examples of modern theft, from stolen pets to disappearing beehives, and explains how communities can act early before small trends turn into national headlines. Show Notes: [01:22] Ben recalls his early years as a police officer and what motivated him to serve. [01:27] The conversation moves into crime scene investigation training and lessons from real-world cases. [03:38] Ben talks about transitioning into teaching and research, guided by a drive to improve policing through knowledge. [05:30] The focus turns to crime prevention and understanding how to stop crimes before they happen. [06:15] Discussion shifts to metal theft, from copper wiring to catalytic converters, and the steep cost of replacing what's stolen. [10:47] Ben explains how metal theft isn't new, tracing its roots all the way back to ancient Greece. [14:58] The challenges of balancing better security design with cost and practicality come to light. [17:46] The topic turns to porch piracy and why package theft has become one of the most common crimes in America. [19:43] Ben breaks down how daily routines influence theft risk and how thieves range from organized groups to impulsive opportunists. [25:23] The role of cameras is questioned as Ben explains why surveillance doesn't always deter crime. [27:00] Practical prevention strategies emerge like delivering to lockers, hiding packages, and using better drop-off options. [28:53] New tech enters the discussion with alarms, GPS tracking, and geofencing tools designed to stop porch pirates. [29:14] Ben explores how rethinking porch layouts could help protect deliveries and reduce crime opportunities. [31:47] The conversation expands to environmental criminology and how physical spaces can influence criminal behavior. [34:00] Ben emphasizes the importance of targeted prevention instead of one-size-fits-all solutions. [38:00] The value of using local crime data, rather than fear-driven news, to make safety decisions is underscored. [40:30] Emerging trends come up, from pet and beehive thefts to crimes tied to the growing sharing economy. [42:00] The episode wraps with takeaways on prevention, awareness, and where listeners can find Ben's research.  Thanks for joining us on Easy Prey.

The run is on! The Baltimore Ravens win their third in a row against a penalty-prone Minnesota Vikings. The offense looked creative and the defense continues to improve with their opportunistic play. It was the Ravens that kept the Vikings rookie quarterback uncomfortable for most of the game. But complementary football led the Ravens to a victory after a shaky first half. #nfl #ravensflock #baltimoreravens #minnesotavikings Join us in YouTube Membership: https://www.youtube.com/c/410SportsTalk Follow us on social media: Instagram: @410sportstalk X (Twitter): @410_sportstalk Check out our merch: https://410-sports-talk.creator-spring.com/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Bart sits down with co-founder John Koborowski to rapid-fire update the portfolio—especially assets tied to Neighborhood Ventures' Opportunistic Fund: Asset #1 (acquired Jan ‘25): Occupancy jumped from 72% → 85%+ as tenant quality improved and maintenance was brought in-house; Google reviews surged from ~2.5★ to 5★ under on-site leadership. Venture on 52nd (closed mid-March): Now 94% occupied with 12 new leases and 15 renewals trending to market. Light CapEx (sound-dampening doors on Thomas-facing units, new semi-private patios) is boosting NOI and rental appeal. Venture on 12th Place: Strategic refinance converted $2M debt → $2M equity, locking in fixed financing and positioning a well-renovated, high-occupancy asset for a stronger hold. Venture on Maryland (under contract): 78 units in Central Phoenix at a compelling basis with lender-backed reno dollars; plan is staged interior upgrades and bringing ~$1,100 one-beds toward ~$1,500 market rents. Venture on Country Club: City-driven life-safety upgrades (sprinklers, egress, signage) slated to start September with tenants in place—stabilizing operations in a “buy-don't-sell” market. Clear takeaways: disciplined ops, targeted CapEx, and cycle-aware buying are driving occupancy, NOI, and long-term positioning across the NV portfolio.

Bart sits down with CEO Jason Manwaring to break down Neighborhood Ventures' latest moves amid a frozen resale market and higher interest rates. They cover why NV launched the Arizona Multifamily Opportunistic Fund, how it scooped up Venture on Colter and Venture on 52nd Street at 30–35% discounts, and why Venture on 12th Place was added after solving a tough refinance gap—now sitting on permanent debt with recent appraisals around ~$9M. They also update the NV REIT (MBE)—currently paying a 5% monthly dividend with stabilized, cash-flowing assets in Phoenix and Flagstaff—and preview new acquisitions in the pipeline. Property spotlights include Venture on 36th Street (fully occupied; moving to permanent financing) and Venture on 17th (stabilized with rents trending up). If you're evaluating where to put capital in today's market, this episode explains NV's buy-right, operate-well, and exit-smart playbook.
