Jon Erlichman spent 25 years as a television business news anchor, helping viewers make better financial and investing decisions. But it turns out his most remarkable expertise is self-marketing.

His formula, as he shares on this episode, relies on short-form content, authenticity, storytelling, and plenty of silliness.

Monday Morning Radio is hosted by the father-son duo of Dean and Maxwell Rotbart.

Jason explores the widening housing shortage, highlighting a recent White House estimate that the United States is undersupplied by 10 million units. While the federal government suggests deregulation as a solution, the Jason argues that local complexities make significant relief unlikely, predicting instead that rents will rise as apartment oversupply clears. Data on building permits is presented to show a sharp decline in new construction across major states like Florida, Texas, and Arizona, which the host interprets as a signal of continued scarcity and high prices. He encourages listeners to act as strategic investors by purchasing new construction now while builder incentives are available, anticipating that future interest rate cuts will spark a market surge. Finally, the segment promotes co-living as a niche solution to affordability and invites audiences to an upcoming real estate conference in California. Start your journey to financial independence.

Lords: Mark Mark's top albums of 2025: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1InKh07sllCLF6cu9za0yhQvmGVC3ZHvM162XI1u1S9A Shirley Topics: If you want to be at the front of the stage at a show, just go there, literally no one is stopping you - or - THE ONLY THING YOU LACK IS WILL Elves and Using Religion to Protect Natural Spaces It's illegal to mod your EV to have custom engine noises Litany Against Fear https://dune.fandom.com/wiki/Litany_Against_Fear How to stop drinking coffee Microtopics: The Splintered Oar, by Weft. An album about labor rights in Kentucky. Reading aloud to your friends and family. The siren song of sitting on the couch and watching TV. Time as the crow flies. Measuring time as the crow looks at the clock. Wanting to be right in front of the stage and just going there. Paying hundreds of dollars to stand in an extremely loud room. Getting after it with an open heart. Everyone standing at the same height as the musicians playing live music. An active member of a live music community in a major US city. Physically engaging with the music. Letting go of your concern for the eyes upon you. Standing in place for the entire four or five bands playing this show without ever leaving your spot to pee. Working the merch booth. Unloading a truckload of positive energy into the space in front of the stage. Mosh pit comfort. Bands graduating to the next level of popularity. Fighting your way to the front of the stage so you can not look at the band. Luxuriating in the freedom of a shared experience of joy. Giving back to the artists you love by screaming at them while they play music. Becoming part of a local scene. People who believe in elves and people who pretend to believe in elves. Looking forward to when your child might one day bring you boba. Elf kayfabe. Mall Santa breaking kayfabe. Whether the mall Santa has to keep up the act even when he's alone in the shower. Reindeer-powered Yaris. Scandinavian elf lore. Post 9/11 supporting of the troops. Arguments to which there is no possible rebuttal, such as "you can't build a mini mall because the elves live here." Picking a random Wikipedia article about Nordic folklore and finding out how many metal bands are named after it. How few murders there are in the modern black metal scene. A looping sample of Snoop Dogg saying "this Volt is in reverse." Automotive engineers deliberately making the engine noise play a power chord. Instead of banning whistle tips, legislators mandating that they play a 7th chord, and also that the driver must know enough music theory to explain why they chose that chord. Being on the sideshow mailing list so you can attend every sideshow. All the different motions you have to make to wash the entire surface of both hands. A poem about not allowing fear to conquer you while you wash your hands. A poem with a specific utility. The lifelong pursuit of being okay with your own mortality. Trying to learn to be happy with what you have. How I fucked myself up. How many waves coffee has. Genetic sense of thirst. Making up a magic number of ounces of water to drink. Getting a water bottle and putting a cool sticker on it. The lion's share of behavioral addiction. Going downstairs into your morning environment. The ritual pleasure of fidgeting with a cigarette. Quitting smoking and having to find other rituals to fill the space smoking used to fill. Your brain being like "remember cigarettes? That was cool" and you're like "that's a weird thing to bring up right now, brain." Having a puff on a cigarette to find out if that's enough to get you addicted again. What it would take to make smoking look uncool. How much easier it is to quit smoking now that they have fidget spinners. All the little adjustments you make to make your life more tolerable. Embers of the Dawn by Bronze Hall. Pumping your fist while you think about elves.

My guest was born in Spain, in the Canary Islands. His father was from Austria and his mom from Chicago. The two met in art school in Vienna. Wenzly speaks English, German and Portuguese. As Wenzl explains , his earliest childhood memories are of him being wrapped/strapped to his mom's back while she painted for hours on end. "She a very dedicated artist," shares McGowan. "Her work ethic, her love for art, and also her commitment to being her authentic self has totally made me who I am. I owe a lot to this wonderful woman." Spending time outdoors and exploring nature was a big part of Wenzl's childhood. He loved building tree houses and exploring the ancient art of building structures with stone among other things. One of the main gifts that Wenzl believes his mom gave him when he was a child was "she would never punish me for being my authentic self." Wenzl was very driven and his mom knew not to ever push him in a specific direction. "I think my mom wanted me to have the freedom to decide for myself what I think is good and how I want to spend my time. And she had this respect for me that I think not many people have for their kids." According to Wenzl he's "now moving more in the direction of meditation teacher, author and conscientious explorer, philosopher that kind of thing excites me a lot. "Mom was a great singer and flautist but it came too easy to her so she stuck with her art because she didn't feel that she was an artist at all. We both like to challenge ourselves. "Perhaps I don't have my stuff together myself. If I want to change the world, or hope for a better future, then I need to change myself," continues McGowen. Phenomenal mother, person and artist. Her art is really starting to get noticed. Brooke's philosophy on painting is similar to how she raised Wenzyl. "When she paints, she respects that the paint has their own will. She doesn't use brushes but pours paint on the canvas. And So yes, the paint really does do a lot of things that the artist doesn't expect, because she's not using it in a very controlled way but she is playing with that boundary of loosing control over the paint, but also respecting the paint's freedom to add to the painting in a spontaneous way. Latest projects Board game- it's available on Amazon and it's about conscience relating-that you can play with family and/or friends- and it's an opportunity to have more honest conversations or more difficult conversations. A game where players fall into emotional spirals. The game is called "NON PHYSICAL" go to Wenzl's website https://wenzlmcgowen.org/ . His books "The End Of Fear" a novel about a homeless person having spiritual awakenings and not being sure if it's a mystical experience or if he's going crazy and "The Sequence of Light And Truth," which is a research book about what scientists think about mystical experiences. https://wenzlmcgowen.org https://moonhooch.com "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

Jason explores the widening housing shortage, highlighting a recent White House estimate that the United States is undersupplied by 10 million units. While the federal government suggests deregulation as a solution, Jason argues that local complexities make significant relief unlikely, predicting instead that rents will rise as apartment oversupply clears. Data on building permits is presented to show a sharp decline in new construction across major states like Florida, Texas, and Arizona, which the host interprets as a signal of continued scarcity and high prices. He encourages listeners to act as strategic investors by purchasing new construction now while builder incentives are available, anticipating that future interest rate cuts will spark a market surge. Finally, the segment promotes co-living as a niche solution to affordability and invites audiences to an upcoming real estate conference in California. Start your journey to financial independence.

Is the brain really the source of mind — or is consciousness something more deeply biological?In this conversation, Anna Ciaunica challenges neurocentrism and explores the idea that cognition may not begin with neurons at all. We examine neuroimmune coupling, pregnancy as a nested model of subjectivity, basal intelligence before brains, and the fragile embodied self revealed in depersonalization experiences.We also explore biological idealism, multiscale intelligence, and whether artificial systems can ever replicate the ontological structure of living organisms.Topics include:• Neurocentrism and its limits• Immune systems as fact-checkers for survival• Basal cognition before neurons• Pregnancy and nested subjectivity• The fragile embodied self• Depersonalization & active inference• Touch and self-other boundaries• Biological idealism explained• Ontological differences between AI and life• Multiscale intelligence and self-organizationThis episode moves from cells to selves to artificial systems — and asks whether experience might be more fundamental than we assume.TIMESTAMPS:(0:00) – Introduction & The Challenge to Brain-Centrism(4:33) – Philosophy's Role in Questioning Scientific Assumptions(8:47) – Neuroimmune Coupling & The Origins of Thought(14:56) – Pregnancy, Nested Systems & Cellular Perception(17:18) – Embodiment in Early Development(23:47) – Phenomenal vs Grounded Experience(29:46) – Fetal Sensory Processing & Early Cognition(36:20) – Layered Analogies for Cognition(40:09) – Basal Intelligence Before Neurons(46:24) – Soma-Sema Theory & Death Anxiety(51:23) – Birth, Death & Ontological Boundaries(55:25) – Depersonalization & The Fragile Self(1:03:39) – Cracks in Transparency & Self-Perception(1:10:50) – Touch, Interaction & Self-Other Boundaries(1:16:45) – The “No Body” Problem(1:21:08) – Brain ≠ Mind: The Neuroimmune Challenge(1:29:09) – Biological Idealism Explained(1:37:59) – AI vs Biological Ontology(1:46:43) – Hidden Assumptions in AI Discourse(2:00:05) – Final ThoughtsEPISODE LINKS:- Anna's Website: https://annaciaunica.fr/- Anna's X: https://x.com/AnnaCiaunica- Anna's Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/annaciaunica.bsky.social- Anna's Publications: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=ZUMz7EAAAAAJ&hl=en- From Cells to Selves: https://aeon.co/essays/why-you-need-your-whole-body-from-head-to-toes-to-think- When The Self Slips: https://aeon.co/essays/what-can-depersonalisation-disorder-say-about-the-selfCONNECT:- Website: https://mindbodysolution.org - YouTube: https://youtube.com/@MindBodySolution- Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mindbodysolution- Twitter: https://twitter.com/drtevinnaidu- Facebook: https://facebook.com/drtevinnaidu - Instagram: https://instagram.com/drtevinnaidu- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/drtevinnaidu- Website: https://tevinnaidu.com=============================Disclaimer: The information provided on this channel is for educational purposes only.

And so Ashen, I would love for people to get to know you a little bit, share a little bit of your background. How did you get into real estate and property management and all of this? Ashton (01:02) Yeah, absolutely. So I'm actually a third generation real estate broker in central Florida. My granddad started in Orlando like way back in the 60s. ⁓ Both my dad and my granddad, a lot of my uncles, they're all builders. So just kind of grew up in that real estate world. I was on a job site from when I was very little. ⁓ And so I always just had a love for homes, real estate, just the whole nine years. When I was wrapping up high school about to go to college, my parents suggested, I always had like an entrepreneurial spirit, and my parents suggested that I get my real estate license. And I was like, you know what, it can't hurt to have that. So I went ahead and took the class, got the licensing as soon as I graduated high school. So I was actually a licensed realtor already working before I started my freshman year of college. ⁓ Real estate has been so fascinating because I've been able to see so many changes over the last 12 years since I got into the industry. I started with new home sales construction, actually working for my parents, ⁓ really learned about what it took to run a sales center. And then I switched to traditional real estate, like what you think of a realtor doing now. ⁓ From there, I ended up opening my own brokerage. Jason Hull (02:03) Wow. Ashton (02:28) ⁓ in February of 2019. And then property management really just fell into my lap. There was a company that was going out of business because the owner was embezzling funds. And their employees actually came to me and said, you know, we would like to work with you. We'd like to work for you. And we're bringing these clients. So I had never written a lease, seen, really even put my eyes or hands on a lease, never. This was two years ago, roughly. ⁓ And like just didn't have any property management experience at all. Figured out that we needed to get some systems in place right out of the gate. And I really took the next year, year and a half. Jason Hull (02:59) how long ago. Okay. Ashton (03:22) to develop those. And Jason, you've been so instrumental in helping us succeed in those systems. You helped us identify the holes in our business and really figure out what we needed to do. ⁓ So at the time that I had brought on the property management side, and when I say property management for us, we do both long-term property management and short-term vacation rental. So I two separate sister companies that operate. Jason Hull (03:51) Yeah. Ashton (03:51) So ⁓ at the time I had roughly about 25 realtors that worked for me under the brokerage. I had really developed that, grown that. We were one of the largest Zillow Premier agent teams in central Florida at that time. Jason Hull (04:13) Wait, can I ask you question about that? Not very many agents start their own brokerage. What? mean, how, do you mind me asking age here? How old were you you started your brokerage and what gave you the audacity to decide to do this big thing? Ashton (04:19) Mm-hmm. I was 23 when I started my brokerage and the funny part was is I actually wanted to buy a brokerage first and I had this is a wild story you'll love this so you know you look back and you say what was I thinking like I had some guts and one of those stories Jason Hull (04:33) Okay, go ahead. Okay. Okay. Yeah Ashton (04:55) So I had initially gone to this guy's office, he had four branches, local real estate agent, or a local real estate brokerage. I'd ⁓ developed his brokerage over like 50 years, had over 200 agents working for him. And I walk in and I asked to speak with the broker. He was there, they put me in the conference room. He thought that I wanted to become an agent working for him. Yeah. And I said, no, sir, I want to buy your company. Jason Hull (05:19) That's the default. my god. Ashton (05:25) And like, this was a total cold call. Like I had never talked with him before, never met him before. I ended up negotiating a price for the company ended up getting securing SBA financing. Everything had lined up so perfectly. And then a couple of weeks before we were actually going to be making it official. He decided that he wanted to, to sell his brokerage to a family member and not go through with me. And so. Jason Hull (05:53) Wow. Ashton (05:55) Honestly, in hindsight, that was the best thing that could have happened. I had no business running that large of a brokerage at 23 years old with no experience. ⁓ Over 200. Yeah. And I had secured a price for 2.4 million for the company. So with an earn out and it was just, it was going to be an insane deal if I could have like actually done that. But ⁓ I was Jason Hull (06:05) How large was it? How many Asians? Okay, yeah, I mean massive, yeah. Ashton (06:24) You know, everything happens for a reason. coming off of like the adrenaline rush from that not happening, I was like, you know what? I'm just going to start my own. Why not? So that's how I started when I was 23. Jason Hull (06:26) Yeah. Yeah. I mean, starting your own brokerage at 23 doesn't sound as crazy if you were already trying to buy 200 agent brokerage. Like, I'll just, you know, step it back a little bit. Ashton (06:49) Mm-hmm. Yes, let's like crawl before we run. Oh, so that was originally what I wanted to do was just build up a massive, brokerage with lots of agents. And I thought that in my head was the dream. No, for me, it was not. I had grown to about 25 agents, like roughly like steadily and kept that number for a while. I realized that I Jason Hull (06:56) Yeah. ⁓ Yeah. Mm-hmm. Ashton (07:21) to not like dealing with realtors and their issues over and over and over again, every day in and day out. It became like kind of toxic to me at least. And I went through and slashed a lot of agents jobs here ⁓ because it was either performance issues, attitude issues, whatever it was, they just were not the right fit for us. I ended up keeping a core five. ⁓ Jason Hull (07:32) Yeah. Ashton (07:47) and they are phenomenal people with good ethics and good business sense who care about their clients and represent me and my company very, very well. Jason Hull (07:58) What do feel like gave you the clarity to make that transition? Like, did you just wake up one morning or like, I don't like a lot of these people? Or how did you get clarity on what you really want? Ashton (08:09) ⁓ One of the things was I told my office manager, I was so frustrated one morning, I told her, said, if one more person asks me another stupid question, I am gonna lose my mind. So I was fed up, I just couldn't deal with it anymore. Jason Hull (08:23) Okay, we're just fed up. Yeah, yeah. So I know when, when did that fit with you joining DoorGrow? Because I know you had worked on culture and we'd helped you figure out kind of what mattered to you and like, that align with, was that before you came on board? Was that after? When did you let go of all the... Okay. You don't move slow on anything, it sounds like. Ashton (08:45) I don't want the same time. Yeah. I try not to. I try not to. Honestly, I feel like that's where things go to die is if you move slow. Jason Hull (08:57) Got it, yeah, right. Okay, cool, quick action taker. So obviously a very driven personality type. ⁓ And I know the topic that we were planning to talk about today is the marriage of private equity and property management, capital meets operations. So let's get into that. Again, you have big goals, big crazy goals. Ashton (09:05) Thank you. Yes. Jason Hull (09:27) that sound pretty insane to most people. But you know, the people that are bold, that have the audacity to go after these big things, achieve big things. So what are you up to now? Ashton (09:39) Yeah, so there's actually a great book by Dr. Benjamin Hardy. He has he's written like several and I know you're a big fan of Dr. Hardy's as well. He talks about like those impossible goals and how you really should and actually that one of his latest books, The Science of Scaling, is ⁓ really spurred me to action and not just having like a 10 year time frame, but like a three year time frame. And I can condense these goals. what I want to do kind of vaguely into really specifics and get it done now. ⁓ So yeah, I would highly recommend anybody listening to also read his books. Jason Hull (10:20) Yeah, agreed. Phenomenal book. I got to hear him speak down in Mexico and he hadn't released his book yet. And I was with a bunch of entrepreneurs that spent a lot of money to be there. And he all just walked out of the room with their mind blown. We were all just like, ⁓ I've been thinking too small. That's why it's been so hard. And it actually gets easier to grow and scale your business when you start thinking outside of your current mental limitations, which means it has to be something unrealistic or impossible. Ashton (10:36) Mm-hmm. Jason Hull (10:49) So that's been a game changer. I've done some episodes talking about this, but same thing for us. Like we've got some big things we're doing this year that are probably a bit ridiculous. And I don't know if we can pull it off, but if we do, DoorGrow will be the dominant player in the industry. And I already feel like we're a leader or leader, but this will be a game changer, some of the stuff that we have planned. And I've talked about it on previous episodes, just a little bit, what we're thinking of doing. But I think it's going to be some of these things are going to be game changer. and we've got so many irons in the fire right now, like we move fast and it's bit crazy, but that's where the fun is too, right? In business. So I'd rather be lit on fire with too many ideas than be stuck. And I've been that way before where I'm like, what should I do next? know, I work on. Ashton (11:35) That's like entrepreneurs worst nightmare is to be feeling stuck and feeling like I'm not moving and I'm not getting traction and I'm not accomplishing anything. That is like absolute hell for us, isn't it? Jason Hull (11:45) Yeah. Yeah, I usually joke that entrepreneurs don't care about being happy or sad. They care about whether they're in momentum or whether they're stuck. And when we're stuck, damned, blocked, frustrated, that is hell. That's like, that's hell for us. We're miserable. And yeah, and it kills our motivation, everything. But when we're in momentum, that's the drug we crave. We want to feel like we're making progress and moving forward. And so I'm that drug dealer. That's what I give out to clients. Like I'm like, let's go. That's hopium. So got to give them some hope. And then they're excited and believe they can do it. But yeah, if you believe you can do something big and you've got a big vision, a big dream, yeah, you start to find new pathways. You start to find new ideas. And so you're working on some crazy stuff. So let's talk about capital meets operations. How do we marry private equity with property management? And could other property managers do this? Ashton (12:21) You do. Jason Hull (12:47) excited to hear. Ashton (12:47) Yeah, absolutely. So I started in the private equity world really recently. It was like January of this year. And I feel like I've just been drinking out of a fire hose, like learning and being in, I've just made sure to put myself in the right rooms where I'm just like absorbing knowledge and information and wisdom from people and family offices that have been doing this so much longer than I. Jason Hull (13:13) You've been really focused on learning the private equity space, which a lot of people, that's like some crazy thing they don't really maybe even understand. They're like, oh, don't know how it works. And you decided, hey, want get in on this. Ashton (13:25) Yeah. ⁓ go ahead. What was that? Jason Hull (13:30) You said, I want to get in on this and learn about this and started figuring it out. All right, I'm going to plug our sponsor real quick, who you use, Vendoroo. How's it going with Vendoroo? Ashton (13:33) Yes. ⁓ And here's amazing. We love them. They they honestly they take care of everything. They're really good about communication. I think they're they're phenomenal. They've been a game changer for us for our day to day ops. Jason Hull (13:54) Okay, cool. I mean, it's So let me read this and then we'll get back into the show.

All right, cool. So let's talk about this private equity stuff. Help me understand what it is. I'm fairly ignorant, so. Ashton (14:59) Hmm So basically, I mean, it's a very big term, private equity, and it can span over so many different asset classes. And I think that's one of, I'm sidetracking a little just a minute, but like, I think that's one of my favorite parts about the private equity and PE industry is because you can meet somebody in your same asset class and they're doing something totally different. Like for instance, you know, what you're teaching Jason with the property management and like these operators and entrepreneurs who are owner operators really, you're teaching us the same framework and we're doing the same exact thing, which there's nothing wrong with that. That's great. That works. It's systemized. In private equity, it's all wild cards. There's a lot of structure to it, but at the same time, everybody can be doing something different. And you're not in competition truly because you all have your own unique spin on it. So it's cool. But what it means is that ⁓ if, so our firm, we bring in investor capital, ⁓ either through debt or equity. And then our investors trust us. We let them know like what we're investing in. usually have like a it depends on the type of investment. So I try not to get too technical here. It depends on the type of investment, but we let them know, hey, we're investing in XYZ companies, or we're investing in hard assets with like purchasing real estate that meet these certain criteria. So instead of these investors taking their money and putting it into the stock market, they are putting it with private firms because the stock market is the public equities. then private equity is these private individually owned firms ⁓ that I mean, you have really large ones like BlackRock and Blackstone and ⁓ all of those. And then you have a lot of small ones like myself who are just getting off the ground. We don't have a lot of assets under management yet. But as we develop that investor base, we're just going to keep that ball rolling and continuing. Jason Hull (17:04) Yeah, so there's booty firms, there's gigantic ones, there's lots of different categories of asset classes that they might be involved or invested in. And so somebody can pick a private equity company or something to partner with or get involved with that kind of is involved with the asset classes that they feel comfortable. Ashton (17:23) Yeah, absolutely. like, there's some, ⁓ like for us, we're real estate based and specifically Florida based real estate. There's, have friends who own hedge funds and that's all they do is hedge funds and specifically in like just in gold or in like just in commodities. We, there's people who are running funds based on really specific short-term rentals or within a five mile radius of national parks. So it gets down really, really, really specific. ⁓ Up until like you large firms with very large funds and they have a diversified asset class over You know, they have hedge funds. They they're doing running venture They're doing ⁓ you know Secondaries they're actually in like the private equity sphere there. So it just really depends on on the firm itself and you want to make sure as if there's any investors listening you want to make sure that ⁓ your you fit with how that firm is treating your money and running your money, and that it aligns with your goals, obviously, not just monetarily, but also with what they're investing in. Jason Hull (18:32) Right, got it. Okay. And so how can property managers start to get involved in this and create this marriage? What are you doing? Ashton (18:43) Yeah, so we're kind of doing it a little bit backwards. Most private equity firms, they start with raising capital and then they're going out and buying the asset and then they're outsourcing their vendors. So one of those vendors being property management and that's really where the gains and losses are happening is in the daily management style there. Then they realize and typically restructure that they could be making more money. They could be increasing their bottom lines and everything else with that management. Everything hinges on the management when you're talking like hard assets in real estate, whether that's multifamily commercial, you know, residence, whatever it is. ⁓ So when they bring it in-house, they are restructuring. And there's also been a huge problem with Jason Hull (19:36) Yeah. Ashton (19:41) And I've been hearing this lately, huge problem with investor capital really not being watched out for by these firms because they're outsourcing all their vendors. What we did instead is I had already have the acquisition engine through our brokerage. We've already got all the systems set up in place for our property management firms, both short and long. Now we added the private equity firm. I have a series 65. So we're actually a state registered Jason Hull (19:51) Right. Ashton (20:10) like investment advisory firm for true asset management on the back end, which a lot of private equity firms do not have that. And then we added the capital. So we literally just did it backwards. And now we're focused on acquiring not only hard assets with cash flowing tenant occupied portfolios that meet certain metrics. We have to have a certain Jason Hull (20:12) Okay. Okay. . Ashton (20:37) IRR, we have to have a certain cap rate and a certain cash on cash return to even peak our interest. The other thing that we're buying is property management businesses. So we are working on acquisitions right now. We just completed one last week and we've got two more in the hopper. So we are going in and offering these off-market portfolios, know, minimum 20 up to, you We have no limit on how many we'll buy, like minimum 20 units and we want creative financing. So we want to structure the deal where the seller and the owner is holding the majority of that note. We're using investor capital for the down payment. We're saving some to hedge for ⁓ reserves and we're going in and buying these companies to add to our revenue and our to our bottom line. Jason Hull (21:35) I love it. Ashton (21:36) Roll up. That's the name and the term that's used in the private equity space is roll up. Jason Hull (21:42) Roll-up, got it. So I've seen some of these companies in the past. I had a client, he eventually exited and sold his business to Home River Group. He had like 2,000 doors. So then he was kind more of a partner in Home River Group, 30,000 eventually. And he became kind of a consultant that would come in and these roll-ups that were being done in some instances, because they did it the reverse way from what you did, they thought they could just throw money at the problem. So they went and acquired a whole bunch of property management companies. Sometimes, like some companies would acquire like 10,000 doors. Then they would fire like 7,000 of them because they realized there was so much garbage and it was difficult to manage. And then they thought they could just put in or install a property manager in and then the business would just run. But no real leadership for the boots on the ground. And so they would bring him in as a consultant. He would go in, fire everybody. Ashton (22:34) Mm. Jason Hull (22:42) organize a team, build a business and act as an interim CEO till he got the thing healthy and running. And he would make a lot of money because they were losing a lot of money trying to make this work. And people don't realize how hard property management can be. And so I think, yes, property managers have an advantage because they have the hardest piece of this entire puzzle, it sounds like. Ashton (23:05) Yeah, it definitely is because you're dealing with you're dealing with tenants, you're dealing with the day to day your you are the boots on the ground. So that is why it is so important before we started any of this, I wanted to make sure that we had the proper systems in place that we could scale 500 more doors without blinking an eye. That is where you have to have that mindset and like you have to know what's going on before adding because when you just add doors and just think that exactly what you said add doors and thinking that that's just going to like solve your problem you're just multiplying your problem whatever problems you have at 20 doors is going to be 10 fold at a thousand doors or more so ⁓ and more just doesn't necessarily equal better and that is one reason like in our contracts we actually do have clawbacks so if we do end up getting rid of owners that just aren't a fit our purchase price is reduced down from the seller. So it gives the seller an incentive to ensure that they're selling us a good. Jason Hull (24:11) Got it, yeah, that's important to have all that's in any sort of acquisition deal. So for other property managers that are looking to get into private equity and they're looking at maybe starting to do this, because they're like, you know what, I've got a healthy property management company, we've got the systems in place, is there somebody that I can partner with on this that already knows how to do it or can I go and learn to do this? What would you say between those two options and where would you send them? Ashton (24:43) Really? It depends on the person. This isn't for everybody. know, you, what I would recommend, and this is honestly what I tell anybody, no matter what business they're in, if they're thinking about growing, where do you want to be in three years? And let's reverse engineer it from there. So if you want to, like for us, our, our plan is to roll up to about 5,500 doors and then exit. So Jason Hull (24:45) Yeah. Got it. Ashton (25:12) I already knew where I wanted to be. And so like, I wanted to exit at a certain amount. So I was like, how do I get to this amount? And then I just backed it up from there. ⁓ but that's, everybody's going to have a different goal. So I would highly recommend just like starting with that initial goal. that's, if that goal is freedom, if it is like, you want to be able to exit, you want to have, you want to just run a massive company, whatever it is, start there and then figure it out backwards. Jason Hull (25:21) Okay. Ashton (25:41) As far as bringing on capital and investor capital, whether they want to partner with somebody or if they want to like bring on debt, that's also a comfort level thing. ⁓ And it also depends on like what you and that other person that's bringing in the capital agree to and what you both feel like is the optimal solution. But before doing that, definitely educate yourself and find someone ⁓ either as a consultant like Right now I am doing a little bit of consulting work for ⁓ different ⁓ funds as well as like companies like, you know, like what we're doing ⁓ for, you know, to help them with what their goals are. Let's back it up and then let's go from there. And like just adding some advice and getting them in touch with the right people that they need as far as connections. Analysts, numbers are so important when you're talking with investors. You can't just be like, I think it's going to make this an investor, especially a sophisticated one is not going to go for that. Maybe friends and family will what I call country club money, but ⁓ a sophisticated investor, absolutely not. They're going to want to see a pro forma. ⁓ So there's so many steps involved before you ever, ever, ever bring on a dime of investor capital. So. Jason Hull (26:51) Yep. Ashton (27:09) I'm sorry, that's not like a ⁓ space. Jason Hull (27:10) So, well, it sounds like the path is maybe this. Like if you're a property manager first, you got to get your side of the room clean. You got to get your business tight. You got to get operations working, maybe reach out to DoorGro, get a little help, but you got to get things really well dialed in because it doesn't make sense to go start playing with other people's money and be on the hook for other people's money and investors. Ashton (27:20) Yes. was not. Jason Hull (27:36) if you don't really feel like you have the ability to scale, you don't really feel like you can handle stuff, because if once money starts flowing and doors start adding, then if your stuff is okay, it's going to be stress tested and probably not okay. So that's probably first. Next, they need to learn about private equity, figure out that game, and then even once you figure out how that all works, then you've got to get good at selling it, which you are already a natural, you know... Ashton (27:51) Yeah, exactly. Jason Hull (28:05) Salesperson, you've invested a lot towards figuring that out, but then you're going out and you have to raise the cap. Ashton (28:11) Raising capital is literally one of the hardest jobs. It is insane because you want to build a relationship and you want someone to trust you, but you're also asking for a check. And so it's trying to balance the relationship aspect as well as the transactional aspect. And it's even harder as a woman because private equity is definitely, ⁓ there's not a lot of women in this field. Jason Hull (28:32) Yeah. Ashton (28:41) ⁓ so it's even harder being like of the opposite gender. ⁓ so there's a lot to balance there. so getting, getting comfortable asking, but not being pushy. It's that I've learned so much from. Jason Hull (28:56) As a woman, you've had to take maybe a more feminine approach or you go in hot the way most guys would. Ashton (29:04) It depends on the person. It depends on my audience. You have to sell the way somebody wants to buy. So I've learned not to, at the beginning, I was definitely very transactional. And I've learned ⁓ through a dear friend of mine that to be more relationship-based and then that will come a little bit later with the transaction. ⁓ But at the same time, because I'm like, Jason Hull (29:11) Yeah. Mm-hmm. Ashton (29:32) I need to know now. Like, I don't want to waste my time. I don't want to waste their time. We just need to lay it out on the table right now. They need to know what I'm here for. ⁓ I've had to like roll that back a little bit. And since I have, the checks have been definitely coming in a little bit smoother. So it was a huge learning experience for me. Jason Hull (29:51) Yeah. Ashton, how old are you right now for those listening? All they've heard is 23. Ashton (29:59) I'm 30 now. Jason Hull (30:01) 30 now, okay, you're 30 years old, you're doing amazing things. What amount of capital are you raising right now? Like what's your goal? Ashton (30:05) Yeah. Yeah, so we do different like rounds or like tranches of raising and it right now we are raising for specific projects. So as the projects come up, then we go out to our current investors first and then to like new potential investors next. ⁓ So in the spring, we're about to start doing another raise for ⁓ one, a business and then two, a couple other. ⁓ real estate portfolios that I'm looking at. ⁓ So that is going to be around the $800,000 mark of capital. And typically we do like minimum commitments of 100 because when you get into smaller amounts, typically the investors that are, I just become a little bit more needy because they're only, they're not as sophisticated and we want to deal with the investors who are. Jason Hull (31:06) Got it. Yeah, that makes sense. Very cool. Sounds like you're doing really cool things. So Ashton, for those that are listening and they're curious about you, they're curious about maybe getting into this, you mentioned you do some consulting, you mentioned there may be investors or maybe they want to get in on some of the investing stuff that you're doing. How can they get in touch with you? Ashton (31:29) Yeah, so they can send us an email. That would be the best way to you can send it to info at FX to capital calm. ⁓ And we, you know, are one of our interns checks that email on the daily. ⁓ So then we can set up an investor call and go through really well what your goals are. What is your portfolio look like right now? How are you diversifying yourself? And maybe we can talk about what we can do to help increase that, maybe rebalance you a little bit within the private space and in the private markets. Jason Hull (32:06) Cool, well property managers, if you're listening, I think Ashton's definitely doing something that's very cool. A lot of you probably could get in on this or create some sort of alliance or relationships that could allow you to be part of something like this. Even if it's just you're getting doors from other people that are in the private equity space that are rolling up a bunch of investment properties, this would be easy doors for you to get on if you really could do a good job. And it sounds like that's the linchpin, that's the hardest piece of the puzzle. And if you're a good property manager, you've got that down then. So you've got a competitive advantage. So Ashwin, I appreciate you coming on and sharing this here on the board. Ashton (32:43) Thank you. Yeah, that was so much fun. It was so great talking to you.

Sean Elliott joins Papa & Silver to reflect on Gregg Popovich and the origins of load management in the NBA. He tells Papa & Silver why simply shortening the regular season from 82 games will not solve the injury issues that we see today, and how players need to come into the season physically ready to play for eight months. Plus, his thoughts on the stardom of Victor Wembanyama, who scored 40 points in the Spurs' win over the Lakers last night.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Over on Candy Chat Chicago, Ronnie Raviv joined hosts Leah Jones and Jocelyn Geboy to talk about medical diagnoses, Finland, the Ice Hotel, the last Bears game of the post-season, all while eating a lot of Finnish candy. Candy that we sample during the episode. Photos on Threads Suffeli Puffi Marianne Dumle Winter Mix Jaffa Karl Fazer Blueberry Truffle Karl Fazer Salty Toffee Crunch Salted Caramel Fudge Ollo All Sorts Susu Snacks Tutti Frutti Winter Mix Tyrkisk Peper Fazer Glogikulaat Lapland's blueberry candy Vestibular Schwannoma or Acoustic Neuroma information Mayo Clinic Dr. Ricky Wong Ronnie and Leah's guide to Lapland Time-lapse drive to Sweden: Housing between Kittila/Levy and Muonio Villa Borealis (where we stayed) https://www.villaborealis.com Lapland Dream Villas (3adjacent cabins, different owner, same operator) https://www.laplanddream.fi Appropriate clothing Our property owner had a warehouse that she took us to for boots, coats, gloves, snowpants, etc Ice hotel provided coveralls, gloves, boots, balaclava Base layer of cotton is a no-no in a cold room at Icehotel so make sure you at least have something synthetic or wool for top and bottom Places we ate in Finland Swiss cafe Muonio Takka at Olos resort Panoramic restaurant at Levi resort via gondola Levi Pizza Salteriat (schnitzel) Finland activities and vendors Aurora Chase with Arctic Frontiers http://www.arcticfrontier.fi/ Phenomenal. Would've booked a second night if needed Base camp was on a frozen lake with a hut with a fire, warm juice and brownies Dogsled http://www.maglelin.fi/ What a delightful afternoon! Ronnie drove a sled himself and I was a passenger on the guide's sled. Once she saw my cane, she made arrangements for me to sit and take 200 photos. Family owned and operated. She offers different distances based on the weather and party size. Arcandia Adventure Park What a fun, silly night! We did ramen with the shamen for dinner. Hot pot cooking with reindeer meat, filet, ramen, fresh veg A la cart sausages and snacks looked good Hot chocolate with mint liqueur was delicious We threw spears, axes, archery, and did an astrology chart This is hilly terrain with snow packed paths. We saw people slip and fall, but kept our footing. Of course it's a tourist trap! Take your best ren faire or Comic-Con attitude and have fun https://www.arcandia.fi/ Reindeer safari https://www.getyourguide.com/sirkka-l139331/levi-reindeer-experience-with-sled-ride-t418396/?ranking_uuid=3248de96-0922-420f-af99-54f05c66decf Warm drinks in a hut with a fire for fascinating reindeer facts after short sleigh ride and feeding reindeer Ice hotel in Sweden https://www.icehotel.com/ What we did Ice Dinner Slept cold in 365 art suite Aurora photography with Scandinavian Sami Photoadventures Www.scandanavianphtotoadventures.com. Ice sculpture class Ice Hotel suggestions Look at the calendar for when the winter exhibit opens. We went a week before. Fun vibe with all the artists and builders on campus, but we didn't get to see the annual build Skip the ice dinner and eat a la carts Use their gear! It's really good Make it two nights - one warm, one cold - and enjoy a slower visit Overall thoughts We went Nov 30 to December 6 2 hours of daylight stretched into 4-5 hours with dawn and dusk Went before peak season of total darkness, so more cost effective We didn't do any Christmas or Santa stuff A few notes on traveling fat and mobility-impaired IceHotel had gear in sizes too big for me! The icehotel sleeping bag was snug and a little claustrophobic, but it zipped The property manager had coats big enough for me (actually a little too big) WinterRent coat was my fave, but their 6x pants didn't fit. Their boots were also the best I borrowed for me. The Snow Country snow pants I bought on clearance last year were perfect https://www.snowcountryouterwear.com/ Smart Wool base layers in largest size fit great Darn Tough socks were tight on calf, but worked good enough Every restaurant has comfortable seating for me The wheelchair plane access in Kittila was an elevator on a truck. If you are unsteady on your feet, get wheelchair services in the airports and save your energy for dogsledding. Bring your own towel. No towel in Finland wrapped around my body.
Robert Cantwell calls Alphabet's (GOOGL) latest earnings "really important" with investors putting their foot down on the Mag 7 company's $180 billion projected CapEx spending. He's wary on AI infrastructure moving forward, but he believes the company can use AI to strengthen its advertising revenue stream. Angelo Zino calls the results "phenomenal" and sees opportunity in Alphabet's gargantuan CapEx. As long as the company accelerates its use cases for AI beyond Gemini, Angelo sees the $180 billion investment paying off. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.
