Tips for travelers making spring, summer plans With spring break here and the peak summer travel season approaching, a whopping 90% or more of Americans say they plan to travel for vacation this year. But travel planning is being complicated by uncertainty due to several factors including current global instability due to the war in the Middle East.That conflict has led to a spike in oil prices impacting flight fares and gas prices. The ongoing partial government shutdown has also led to longer wait times for security lines as the Transportation Security Administration deals with staffing shortages. TSA workers are currently being asked to work without pay. Links mentioned in the discussion State Dept.

On the latest episode of Running the Game, Rog sits down with Brentford owner Matthew Benham at the MIT Sloan Sports Analytics Conference to explore how data, culture, and smart decision-making transformed a small West London club into a Premier League contender. Benham explains how his background in statistical modeling and betting markets shaped Brentford's recruitment strategy, why the club focuses on collective decision-making instead of superstar managers, and how identifying inefficiencies in transfers and set pieces helped fuel their rise. He also reflects on Brentford's striker production line, the role of data versus scouting, and why football still has untapped analytical frontiers.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Are you building a business, or just a job with your name on it? For many founders, selling their company is a once-in-a-lifetime event. Yet when the time comes, they're unprepared — financially, structurally, and emotionally. They're burned out. Or worse, they're forced into a decision that should have been strategic. In this episode, we discuss what it really takes to sell a business well — and why preparing for an exit starts years before you ever list it. Marvin Karlow is a licensed investment banker and mergers and acquisitions (M&A) advisor at Raincatcher who has spent his career on both sides of the deal table. A former C-suite executive at LexisNexis, ChoicePoint, JPMorgan Chase, and Texas Instruments, Marvin later bought, grew, and exited his own manufacturing business — including a carve-out that was acquired by a publicly traded company. Over the past two years alone, he has helped founders achieve more than $25 million in successful exits. In this episode, Marvin breaks down how to prepare your business for maximum value, reduce stress during the sale process, and exit on your terms — not someone else's. Build a Business Buyers Compete For The biggest mistake founders make? Waiting until they're burned out to sell. Burnout often signals declining financial or operational performance, and buyers notice that. Marvin explains that the right time to sell isn't when you have to — it's when you're profitable, growing, and emotionally ready. Three foundational factors dramatically impact valuation: Profitability (non-negotiable) Clean, organized financials Minimal owner reliance Owner reliance is a deal killer. If every decision runs through you, if key client relationships depend solely on your personal history — buyers aren't purchasing a scalable business. They're buying a job. And that lowers value. The goal? Become the strategist behind your business. Run a Process — Don't Just List Your Business Many founders unknowingly leave money on the table because their representation "lists and waits." Marvin's philosophy is different: create a competitive environment. He compares it to selling a house. You don't just put it on MLS and hope. You stage it. Market it strategically. Create urgency. Invite multiple serious buyers. Set deadlines. Generate offers. Negotiate upward. That same disciplined process applies in M&A. Competition drives value. When buyers know others are at the table, offers improve — not just on price, but on terms. Every business owner exits eventually. You can exit on your terms, under your own power — or not. Preparing early allows you to strengthen financial reporting, reduce owner dependence, and make other improvements that boost value years later. Enjoy this episode with Marvin Karlow… Soundbytes 06:02 - 06:17 "For a lot of business owners, it's a once-in-a-lifetime event, because you started the business when you were 17 or 22 or whatever, and you ran it for 20 or 30 or 40 years. And now your reason for exiting is that you'd like to retire, or you'd like to spend more time with the grandkids, or whatever it is. It's truly a once-in-a-lifetime event. And you definitely want to get it right. This is not the thing to get wrong in life." 36:57 - 37:15 "Every business owner exits eventually. You're going to exit your business at some point. You can do it on your terms under your own power — or not. I suggest your own terms and your own power, and having conversations with somebody like me will help that." Quotes "If you're working 60 hours a week in your business and every decision runs through you, it's going to be pretty difficult to sell." "The number one tactic is to be profitable." "There's a buyer for almost every business. The question is valuation." "The only way to know you got the best deal is to have multiple offers."

Feeling overwhelmed is incredibly common for adults with ADHD—but the real cause might not be what you think. In this episode, ADHD Coach Lynne Edris explores why overwhelm often comes from too much noise and not enough clarity. Learn how simple systems for planning, calendars, and task management can create the clarity your brain needs to stay focused, reduce procrastination, and follow through on what matters most. Lynne notes that when people come to her for help, three challenges show up again and again: overwhelm, procrastination, and the painful feeling of not living up to their potential. Lynne refers to these three struggles as the ADHD trifecta, because they're so closely connected. When overwhelm creeps in, procrastination often follows. And when those two take hold, it becomes much harder to follow through consistently in a way that reflects what you're truly capable of. The real antidote is clarity. When you have clarity about what matters, what needs to happen next, and where to focus your attention, it becomes much easier to take action and move forward without getting stuck. In This Episode, You'll Learn • Why overwhelm is so common for adults with ADHD • How overwhelm, procrastination, and unmet potential are connected • Why the root of overwhelm is often noise and lack of clarity • Practical ways to create clarity using your calendar and task systems • How to recognize your personal signs that overwhelm is creeping in Take the Productivity Breakthrough Quiz If you'd like help identifying what's really getting in the way of your productivity and follow-through, take Lynne's quick assessment: www.ProductivityBreakthroughQuiz.com In just a few minutes, you'll discover your unique productivity type and gain insight into what's actually getting in the way—so you can stop spinning your wheels, take control of your time, and show up more consistently at the level of your potential.

Hitting bigger revenue numbers does not automatically make a design business scalable. In this episode, I unpack the critical identity shift interior designers must make to move from being the go-to creative expert to becoming a strategic firm owner and CEO. This conversation gets to the heart of why so many talented designers stay overbooked, overextended, and stuck as the bottleneck in their own business, even with support staff in place. You'll hear how sustainable growth depends on structure, systems, decision-making protocols, and emotional leadership, not just stronger sales. I also share how to spot the "hero trap," why hiring alone will not solve operational strain, and what it really takes to build a profitable interior design firm that creates freedom, resilience, and long-term enterprise value. In this episode, you'll hear: (01:20) Why the "revenue illusion" keeps interior designers thinking they own a firm when they are still functioning like a high-performing solopreneur (03:15) The mindset shift from designer thinking to CEO thinking, including the difference between focusing on projects versus building systems and structure (06:42) A simple two-week disappearance test to reveal whether your business can actually run without you (11:51) Why hiring the cheapest or easiest option often creates more bottlenecks instead of giving you real leadership capacity (14:58) How clearer protocols, decision rights, and consumable SOPs like Loom videos help your team operate with confidence (23:01) The "hero trap" that keeps designers overfunctioning, reinforces team dependency, and prevents true business freedom Because you are far more capable than how you've been operating and I'm here to coach you into your untapped potential, join me at the Designer Profit Intensive! We'll restructure your rates for more revenue, redesign your discovery process to capture high level clients, provide a complete perfect contract template to protect your profit, and deliver a custom marketing plan, all in one day, in person with 14 designers at the table.

Step onto Berlin's Museum Island, where the Enlightenment dreamed of a universal home for human creativity—and where Jews helped shape that vision with boldness, generosity, and imagination. Yet amid its temples of art and reason, the island also reveals the cracks: the shadows of exclusion, erasure, and the breaking of the very ideals it sought to enshrine.Join J2 Adventures' Wandering Jews as we explore a place that inspires the human spirit, even as it exposes the profound limits of the Enlightenment's promise.

In this episode she gets radically honest about the financial decisions that shaped her DPC journey: using retirement savings to launch, hiring a consulting firm she wasn't sure she needed, growing slowly without advertising, and why a financial advisor has been one of her most important investments.What we cover:The 3am moment that made leaving feel like survival, not a choiceUsing retirement funds to launch, and why she'd do it againThe real cost of hiring a consulting firm (and the complicated truth about whether it was worth it)Why slow, organic growth is a financial strategy, not a failureHow a micropractice under 130 patients can be sustainable and deeply fulfillingWhat financial sustainability actually looks like when you're a solo physician with no staff

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Martin Armstrong to the show. Martin Armstrong is CEO & Chairman of Armstrong Economics Ltd. In this wide-ranging interview, Armstrong provides deep insights into global geopolitical and economic dynamics, focusing on current international tensions, monetary systems, and future economic trends. Armstrong argues that the current geopolitical landscape is far more complex than many analysts understand, particularly regarding conflicts in the Middle East and potential global tensions. He emphasizes that the neoconservative movement has significantly influenced US foreign policy, often without fully comprehending the long-term consequences of their actions. He specifically critiques interventions in Iraq, Iran, and other regions, suggesting that these actions frequently create more instability than they resolve. Regarding the global monetary system, Armstrong believes significant changes are coming. He suggests that gold is increasingly being viewed as a neutral asset by countries like China, who are accumulating it as a hedge against potential conflicts. While he doesn’t anticipate a traditional gold standard, he sees gold playing a crucial role in international trade settlements, potentially rising to $10,000 by 2032. Armstrong is particularly critical of current government debt strategies, predicting a potential sovereign debt crisis. He argues that governments historically default through various mechanisms, including war, currency devaluation, or simply refusing to honor previous debt. The United States’ reserve currency status, he explains, stems not just from government policy but from its robust consumer economy and deep financial markets. Looking forward, Armstrong sees continued geopolitical uncertainty, rising oil prices, and potential conflicts, particularly involving Russia and China. He warns that sanctions and current diplomatic strategies are counterproductive and that true global peace requires economic integration rather than isolation.

He is the former chairman of Princeton Economics International Ltd. He is best known for his economic predictions based on the Economic Confidence Model, which he developed. At age 13, Armstrong began working at a coin and stamp dealership in Pennsauken, New Jersey. After buying a bag of rare Canadian pennies, he became a millionaire in 1965 at the age of 15. He continued to work on weekends through high school, finding the real-world exciting, for this was the beginning of the collapse of the gold standard. Martin became captivated by this shocking revelation that there were not just booms and busts, but also peaks and valleys that would last centuries. Armstrong progressed from gold coin investments to following commodity prices for precious metals. In 1973, he began publishing commodity market predictions as a hobby, and in 1983 Armstrong began accepting paid subscriptions for a forecast newsletter. “In Armstrong’s view of the world where boom-bust cycles occur like clockwork every 8.6 years, what matters is his record as a forecaster. He called Russia’s financial collapse in 1998, using a model that also pointed to a peak just before the Japanese stock market crashed in 1989. These days, as the European sovereign-debt crisis roils markets worldwide, he reminds readers of his October 1997 prediction that the creation of the euro “will merely transform currency speculation into bond speculation,” leading to the system’s eventual collapse.” His Website Armstrong Economics offers a unique perspective intended to educate the public and organizations on the global economic and political environment’s underlying trends. Their mission is to research historical cyclical trends.

Episode 333 features LC's Bar-B-Q owner, Tausha Hammett carries on her grandfather's legacy and New York State Baseball Hall of Fame member, Tony Morante provide exceptional barbecue and baseball talk Tausha Hammett is the owner of LC's Bar-B-Q in Kansas City, Missouri and the granddaughter of the founder, LC Richardson.  At 12 years old she began learning the business and helping.  Per Tausha, "My grandfather was a pillar and BBQ legend in the Black community and my goal is to keep his legacy and brand strong."  She is doing just that as she does everything needed to run the restaurant, "If I have to come in here after a full day, I come in here and if I have to open, I open. If I have to close, I close."  She also said, "When I make decisions that affect his legacy, I always have him in the back of my mind.  I feel like he's always looking down on me."  Ray Sheehan was instrumental in introducing us to Tausha and joins us as guest co-host. Tony Morante is a member of the New York State Baseball Hall of Fame and a Bronx, New York lifetime resident.  His father was a Yankee Stadium usher and Tony had the thrill of accompanying him to games and eventually working at the Stadium in 1958 also as an usher.  In 1973 Tony was offered a job in the New York Yankees Group and Season Sales Department.  In 1979 with the help of the Bronx County Historical Society, he began walking tours of the Stadium.  By 1998, George Steinbrenner helped Tony open a Tours Department.  Revenue accrued through the tours benefitted the Yankee Foundation, a charitable program that brought education and recreation programs to the inner-city youth.  Included among his many other accomplishments is that Tony is the author of the book, Baseball: The New York Game:  How the National Pastime Paralleled US History.

Former Sydney Kings and Illawarra Hawks owner Dorry Kordahi takes us inside his latest venture — buying into the Lebanese Basketball League and becoming president of the NSA Falcons. Host Dan Boyce chats with Kordahi on why the LBL is one of the most powerful basketball markets in the world (and why the timing to invest is right now), how the opportunity came together through long-time connections, and what he's already doing on the ground. From there, the conversation shifts back home. Kordahi addresses ongoing talk around NBL expansion — including his interest in a second Sydney franchise and his long-running push to help bring the Newcastle Falcons back into the league. He explains why stadium infrastructure is the biggest barrier, why government support is essential, and how the NBL's growth over the past decade has changed the way "small market" clubs can recruit and compete.

Burnout is more common than many leaders are willing to admit. It's rarely a sign that the practice itself is broken. More often, it's a signal that the systems supporting the business need to evolve. In this week's Power Hour, Eugene sits down with Allison Kraemer & Dr. Brian Spittle from The Power Practice to talk about something many practice owners experience but rarely discuss openly: Burnout in private practice.

The fastest way to poison your life is to believe you own what you only borrowed. We often act like "owners" of our money, time, and talents, but Jesus warns that entitlement turns blessings into weapons.

Episode 99 of The Okay Podcast dives into the strange, hilarious, and oddly technical world of garage gyms, strength culture, and internet fitness communities. The crew discusses the rise of Gym Radar, a new platform where lifters can show off their home gyms, track equipment, and discover new setups. They also tackle a common problem many home gym owners face: how to fix a sloped garage floor so your squat rack is level. Along the way, the conversation veers into coffee brewing techniques, the NFL Combine bench press debate, and the chaos of running a podcast with no real plan. If you love strength training, garage gyms, and unfiltered gym talk, this episode is packed with insight and entertainment.Podcast Hosts:Grant Broggi: Marine Veteran, Owner of The Strength Co. and Starting Strength Coach.Jeff Buege: Marine Veteran, Outdoorsman, Football Fan and LifterTres Gottlich: Marine Veteran, Texan, Fisherman, Crazy College Football Fan and LifterJoin the Slack and Use code OKAY:https://buy.stripe.com/dR6dT4aDcfuBdyw5ksCheck out BW Tax: https://www.bwtaxllc.comBUY A FOOTBALL HELMET:⁠https://www.thestrength.co/mrhelmet/?utm_source=The+Okay+Podcast&utm_medium=Podcast&utm_campaign=Okay_PodTimestamps:00:00 - Intro04:32 - Staff Brief19:50 - Brikka Technique30:37 - Gym Radar39:18 - Leveling A Garage Gym Floor50:22 - NFL Combine55:59 - World Baseball Classic01:03:37 - Johnny Blue Skies01:08:03 - Overhead Bin Etiquette01:18:08 - Taco Meat

Navigating the Wild West of Texas Note Deals: Red Flags & Real ReturnsHave you ever been sent a deal that looks too good to be true, or perhaps just a little... "off"? In this special edition of Note Night in America, we're pulling back the curtain on a recent tape of 76 performing Texas notes. While the high interest rates and rural charm might catch your eye, the real story lies in the due diligence. Join us as we dissect a "daisy chain" of brokers, hunt down the truth through county records, and show you exactly how to calculate if a low-balance note is a diamond in the rough or a high-cost headache. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a "note buying for dummies" student, this deep dive into the "Spidey senses" of investing is a masterclass you can't afford to miss.Key Topics Covered in This Episode:Identifying "Joker Brokers" & Daisy Chains: How to spot when a deal is being passed through too many hands and why not being "direct to the seller" can frustrate your negotiations.The "Spidey Sense" of Due Diligence: Why a lack of loan numbers, third-party servicing, or RMLO (Registered Mortgage Loan Originator) verification should be an immediate red flag for any investor.Deep-Dive Research Techniques: Learn how to use batch geo-mapping, county deed searches, and lender website audits to verify the "hustle" and find the true origin of the notes.The Math of Arbitrage: A step-by-step breakdown of buying notes at 80% of the Unpaid Principal Balance (UPB) while funding them with private money at 85% to create instant "up-front" profit and long-term cash flow.Texas High-Cost Loan Hazards: Understanding the risks of interest rates exceeding 10% in Texas and how low down payments (under 10%) can complicate foreclosures.Amortization & Exit Strategies: How to use amortization tables to determine exactly when you must sell a note before the balance drops below what you owe your investors.Rural Property Realities: The challenges of getting accurate BPOs (Broker Price Opinions) in small towns like Alice, Spur, and Sweetwater, and why "windshield time" is sometimes the only way to verify value.Closing thoughts:Success in note investing isn't just about finding a list; it's about having the discipline to walk away when the numbers—or the stories—don't add up. We appreciate the hustle of every new investor, but our goal is to ensure you're making bids that actually close and protecting your reputation with your funding partners. Don't let a "daisy chain" wrap you in knots. Take these lessons, sharpen your research tools, and keep marketing.

Calibrate Real Estate Podcast #201 In this episode of the Calibrate Real Estate Podcast, host Kyle Malnati sits down with Scott Rathbun, the President and Owner of Apartment Appraisers and Consultants (AANC), to discuss the current state of the apartment market in the Denver Metro Area. This episode provides valuable insights and data-driven analysis for real estate professionals and decision-makers in the Denver Metro Area, as they navigate the current market conditions and plan for the future. Here are key takeaways: The Denver Metro Area is experiencing a slowdown in population growth and employment, which are typically the key drivers of housing demand. The demand for apartments remains high due to the increasing unaffordability of homeownership, leading to a delay in the transition from renting to owning. The apartment market has been overbuilt, resulting in rising vacancy rates and the need for landlords to offer significant concessions to attract tenants. The decline in rents is impacting the affordable housing market, as market-rate rents are now competing with subsidized affordable units. The development pipeline is shrinking, which could lead to a future shortage of new apartment supply and a potential resurgence in rent growth. Investors and developers should closely monitor the market trends and be prepared to adjust their strategies accordingly. Renters may have more negotiating power in the short term, but the long-term outlook suggests the potential for a tightening market and rising rents. Policymakers and affordable housing advocates should consider ways to incentivize the development of affordable units to mitigate the impact of the market-rate rent competition.
