When Jerry Kong sells a single-family home, buyers walk through the door with a compass app open to check the feng shui. When he leases an apartment, tenants just say, "Cool, where do I sign?" That single realization pushed Jerry — alongside his partners Anthony and April — from single-family investing into building a multifamily portfolio spanning Portland, Denver, San Antonio, and Tennessee, with over $50 million in assets under management and 1,000-plus doors. In this episode, Jerry breaks down the exact structure of his first-ever capital raise — a $1.6 million deal split four ways with an experienced sponsor, where he personally raised just shy of $400,000 over two and a half grueling months — and how leveraging that sponsor's name changed the way brokers treated him in his home market almost overnight. He also shares why he calls the biggest, most established operator in any new market before making a move, how radical transparency turned a friend's Porsche fund into an investment in his deal instead, and why the best compliment an investor can give is skipping the webinar because they already trust the process. Whether you're trying to structure your first capital raise or figure out how to keep investors engaged between deals, Jerry's approach to building credibility through consistency and honesty is a rare, unfiltered look inside how a real multifamily team actually operates.Five key takeaways:Multifamily is a fundamentally different sale than single-family. Jerry pivoted away from single-family, where emotional buyers scrutinize everything down to the feng shui, toward multifamily, where tenants sign a lease as a straightforward business transaction — a much better fit for his finance-driven, numbers-first mindset.Everyone on the team has to raise, no exceptions. Jerry's team runs on one rule: no matter your specialty — underwriting, investor relations, marketing — you're still expected to raise capital, because relying on one person for deal flow creates a single point of failure, as they learned firsthand when a team member's personal crisis stalled an entire market.Borrow the biggest name in any new market. Instead of competing against the top established operator in an unfamiliar market, Jerry calls them directly to partner, since that operator has likely already seen — and passed on — the deal for reasons a newcomer might completely miss.Radical transparency builds more trust than a polished pitch. Jerry never leads with upside; he walks investors through the worst-case scenario and every real-world risk built into his underwriting — which is exactly what convinced a savvy investor to delay buying his son a car and invest in Jerry's deal instead.Consistent, personal communication is a credibility engine. Sending newsletters from a personal email instead of a mass-mailer address, doing three touches per distribution, and treating an investor's "no thank you, I don't need the webinar" as the ultimate compliment are what keep investors coming back deal after deal.About Tim MaiTim Mai is a real estate investor, fund manager, mentor, and founder of HERO Mastermind for REI coaches.He has helped many real estate investors and coaches become millionaires.

Few names are more closely connected to Porsche motorsport than Hurley Haywood. In this episode of The Collector Car Podcast, I sit down with one of America's greatest racing drivers to talk about his remarkable career, his relationship with Porsche, and the cars and people that shaped his life behind the wheel. Hurley shares where his passion for racing began, what made Porsche race cars so special to drive, and which Porsche stands out as his personal favorite. We also look back at his extraordinary record, including five overall victories at the 24 Hours of Daytona, three at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and two at the 12 Hours of Sebring. We also discuss his legendary partnership with Peter Gregg, what racing was really like during one of motorsport's greatest eras, and why Porsche continues to create such a powerful emotional connection with enthusiasts around the world. Most importantly, Hurley reflects on the moments, relationships, and accomplishments that mean the most to him after a lifetime spent at the highest levels of motorsport.

The four-stall site uses ABB Mobility all-in-one dispensers delivering up to 400 kW with NACS and CCS1 connectors and app-only payment, part of a rollout that added 612 stalls in the first half of 2026 and ranked second only to Tesla for new ports energised in Q2, at an average $0.43 per kWh with 10% off for Walmart+ members.HYUNDAI OPENS IONIQ V PRE-SALES IN CHINABeijing Hyundai has begun pre-sales of the Ioniq V at the 2026 Chengdu Auto Show ahead of a September launch, priced from 119,900 yuan (about $17,300) to 139,900 yuan across three versions, with up to 650 km of CLTC range, an 800-volt E-GMP architecture, CATL LFP batteries of 53.5 or 66.8 kWh and single motors of 140 or 168 kW. It is the first production Ioniq developed in China, using a 27-inch 4K Snapdragon 8295 screen, Momenta highway L2+ assistance and Baidu and ByteDance AI infotainment, as Hyundai targets 20 electrified models and 500,000 annual Chinese sales by 2030.POLESTAR CLAIMS UNEQUAL US TREATMENTPolestar has accused the US Commerce Department of "disparate treatment" after a June 24 denial blocked its American sales from model year 2027, noting that Volvo — which shares Chinese majority owner Geely and builds the Polestar 3 on the same South Carolina line — was authorised earlier in 2026. In an Aug. 18 letter, Peter Wexler said the 13-month review dismissed mitigation offers including audits, cybersecurity reviews and removal of China links from data management, despite officials indicating in January and April that approval was likely; dealers have called the outcome devastating, with a New Jersey group suing for $25 million over an allegedly concealed US withdrawal.DUTCH PLUG-IN MARKET FAVOURS RICH HOUSEHOLDSStatistics agency CBS found that the Netherlands' shift to electric cars has mainly benefited wealthy households, with the top-earning 10% buying almost 75,000 of the roughly 259,000 electric and plug-in hybrid cars traded in 2025 and the top 20% accounting for nearly half. The lowest-earning 10% bought about 6,000, or 2%, and two-thirds of cars bought by the poorest fifth were over a decade old, prompting a €52 million, three-year subsidy scheme from the final quarter of 2026 for lower- and middle-income buyers of second-hand EVs who scrap older petrol or diesel vehicles.MERCEDES CLA ELECTRIC COVERS 385 MILES AT 70 MPHThe dual-motor 2027 Mercedes-Benz CLA 350 4MATIC Electric covered 385 miles in a constant-speed 70 mph range test on 19-inch wheels, exceeding its 312-mile EPA Combined rating by 73 miles, or 23%, with 2 miles remaining at 0% charge. Consumption of 225 Wh per mile implied 86.6 kWh used against an 85-kWh net battery, with the result credited to the 800-volt Mercedes Modular Architecture and a two-speed rear-motor transmission of the type that has also helped Porsche and Audi models beat their ratings.OPEL SETS 2028 DATE FOR ELECTRIC CORSAOpel CEO Florian Huettl has pushed the all-electric Corsa successor from 2027 to 2028, moving the brand's best-seller onto Stellantis' STLA Small platform as a battery-electric-only model with bigger batteries, more range and prices from €25,000, against the current e-CMP Corsa Electric's 46-49 kWh battery, 429 km claim and €30,440 starting price. Huettl cited improving range, charging and fuel costs rather than any fixed date to end combustion engines, and Opel will still deliver the e-CMP-based Corsa GSE, capable of 0-100 kph in 5.5 seconds, to dealers this year.ROME BACKS ELECTRIC AND HYDROGEN BUSESRome will spend €117 million from Italy's infrastructure ministry on new buses through operator ATAC, split between €83.6 million for hydrogen models and €27.1 million for battery-electric ones plus depot upgrades, though neither quantities nor manufacturers have been named. A further €6 million in European funding will build a green hydrogen hub using local electrolysis at ATAC's Acilia site, complementing a charge introduced in July 2026 for EVs entering a restricted central zone that takes about 50,000 cars a day against a designed capacity of 20,000.SUZUKI PLANS VISION E-SKY EUROPE EXPORTSuzuki intends to export its Vision e-Sky electric microcar from Japan, with Europe possible in 2027 and the UK and Italy under review at an expected UK price below £20,000, ahead of a Japanese world premiere in autumn and production at a plant southwest of Tokyo. Based on Japan's kei-car class and targeting 310 km of range with likely LFP cells from BYD's corporate network, it would be Suzuki's first battery-electric kei car and reportedly the first exported almost unchanged, offering growth potential after European sales fell 15% to 187,000 in the year to March.MEXICO ELECTRIFIED SALES RISE AS PRODUCTION FALLSMexico sold 95,037 electrified vehicles in the first half of 2026, up 44% year on year for a 12.6% market share, led by Toyota in conventional hybrids and boosted by expanding Chinese brands, while charging points reached 60,934 and 170 electrified models are now offered. Production moved the other way, falling to 47,411 units from 110,002 a year earlier as weaker US demand cut Equinox output by 81.6% and Blazer output by 80%, prompting the Electro Mobility Association to call for policies supporting both electrification and domestic manufacturing.ELECTRIC MOTORHOME USES EVOLVE PLATFORMCityFreighter, Vöhringer and Motive Development have unveiled an electric motorhome demonstrator for Europe's 4.25-tonne Class B category, built on CityFreighter's Evolve skateboard with a Vöhringer AIRPLY lightweight interior and coming in under 3.5 tonnes complete with kitchen, bathroom and heat pump, leaving about 750 kg of payload. Its 128-kWh battery gives roughly 400 km of range, supports vehicle-to-load and charges from 10-80% in about 20 minutes at up to 200 kW, while independent battery replacement and upgrades are pitched as protecting residual value in vehicles that often stay in service for decades.

Money, fame, and abs buy admiration, not intimacy. How to Feel Loved author Sonja Lyubomirsky reveals the five mindsets that make you feel loved.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1373What We Discuss with Sonja Lyubomirsky:Being loved and feeling loved are two different things. Surveys found 70 percent of people can name a close relationship where the love just isn't landing. Someone can adore you completely, but if it never clears your firewall, you can feel utterly alone in a room full of people who care.The fix isn't becoming more lovable or overhauling your partner — it's changing the next conversation. A relationship is really just a series of conversations, which means feeling more loved is far more under your control than the entire self-help aisle wants you to believe.Money, status, and six-pack abs buy admiration, not intimacy — and admiration never makes anyone feel known. Optimizing your dating life like you're shopping for a used Porsche, chasing the mythical 'four sixes,' only builds a more elaborate CAPTCHA for loneliness.The five love languages are closer to pop theology than science. Researchers debunked the idea that partners must 'match' or the relationship is doomed. There are far more than five ways to connect, and the two everyone actually craves are simply quality time and words of affirmation.If you don't feel loved, go first. Get curious, listen to learn instead of to reply, share, and lead with warmth. Text that old friend, ask your parents real questions, break out the conversation cards. Connection is a skill, and every small drop counts.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Mold in a Porsche. High spots on a fresh ceramic. And the one mistake that keeps detailers from getting real protection on the car.Marshall and Nick pull back the curtain on the kind of problems shop owners and serious enthusiasts run into every day - from dealing with mold remediation in modern vehicles to the exact reason coatings fail when people try to stretch product too far. If you've ever wondered whether you're using enough on the pad, enough on the panel, or enough on the process, this episode is going to hit home fast.Marshall also breaks down the real-world value of giving customers a path, not just a product - from maintenance kits to YouTube guidance to a complete ecosystem that helps shops protect cars and keep customers coming back. Nick adds the practical side of why some jobs should be left to the dealership, why overthinking tools can slow you down, and why “light usage” often just means not enough product on the surface.Then the conversation shifts to the bigger picture: Juice, Sliq , Spray Coat, Stack, and Eco One. What's the difference, when should you use each one, and how do dilution ratios and application style change the result? If you've ever second-guessed whether you're spraying enough, wiping enough, or mixing enough, this one clears it up.Essential listening for detailers, shop owners, and car lovers who want better results, fewer mistakes, and a simpler system that actually works.Chapter timestamps00:00 - Why sitting in a moldy car makes you rethink your whole day01:13 - Enzyme cleaning mold and why masks matter02:11 - Pulling mats, frunk talk, and when to replace instead of save04:25 - Why removing seats on modern cars is an insurance problem05:16 - Old-school flood-and-extract methods versus modern remediation07:56 - Dodge truck jokes and why truck owners get so defensive10:36 - Uno questions and the rule of loading the applicator thick12:19 - Why underapplying coating causes flashing and missed coverage15:54 - Why protection only works if you actually use enough of it17:14 - How Stack, Uno, Trey, and Sparta get used panel by panel19:19 - What a high spot is and why it is mostly just ugly21:39 - Nathan's customer gets a full maintenance path, not just a coating23:34 - Turning YouTube and the Facebook group into a product encyclopedia26:15 - Why shops can cut their cost in half by building kits into every job28:08 - Coating a new Traverse RS and the right order for trim, glass, and paint30:50 - Which detailing lights are worth buying and which ones are overhyped33:40 - Whether glass needs polishing before coating35:24 - How to fix a high spot with VLO, Lux, or a towel method38:56 - Looking back and forward while you coat so you do not miss anything43:46 - Juice versus Slick versus Spray Coat versus Stack48:46 - Why product cost should not make you underapply50:23 - Why Nick does not like using rinseless or waterless on interiors55:10 - Eco One dilution ratios and how the 5-gallon cube works59:05 - Closing thoughts and the value of the HyperClean Specialists group

Êtes-vous conscient de la profondeur des émotions qui lient une marque à ses clients ? Dans cet épisode captivant de L'Instant MARKETING COMMUNICATION, Florian Grimault explore la notion fascinante de brand intimacy, une proximité perçue qui va bien au-delà de la simple fidélité transactionnelle. Alors que de nombreuses entreprises se reposent sur des promotions et des habitudes pour fidéliser leur clientèle, Grimault nous rappelle que la véritable intimité de marque se construit sur des émotions, des souvenirs et des rituels partagés, intégrant ainsi la marque dans la vie quotidienne des consommateurs.À travers des exemples emblématiques tels que Disney, Apple, Nespresso, Netflix, Lego et Porsche, il démontre comment chaque marque a développé sa propre stratégie pour établir une relation intime avec ses clients.

Episode 4127: Emily Guy Birken has wanted the same 1970s Porsche 911 since she was fourteen, and the research suggests she is happier for never having bought it. She explains habituation, why experiences outperform objects, and why many small bursts of joy add up to more happiness than one enormous one.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://ptmoney.com/window-shopping/ Quotes to ponder: "Once you own something, you get used to it." "We are all looking for the next new thing to want, and if we have the money, each purchase will simply give us a momentary high before the cycle begins again."

Porsche's One-Off Flat Nose Exercise Porsche just rolled out a one-off flat nose build based on a 991 GT2 RS, and it's hard not to think Moby Dick when you see it. The obvious difference is this thing is a street build, where the original Moby Dick was strictly a race car, but the vibe is unmistakably the same. Porsche has been on a kick lately of digging through leftover parts bins and putting together these special exercises just to show what they can do. It's a cool flex, but it also raises the question of who these builds are actually for and whether we'll see more of them or if this is a one-and-done showcase. Porsche Strikes Out on Singer and RUF Word is Porsche tried to buy Singer and got turned down, then went after RUF and got the same answer. Honestly, none of us are shocked either brand said no. Both are large, established operations that have built their identity on standing completely apart from Porsche, so an acquisition would undercut the whole reason people love them. The bigger question is why Porsche is making these moves in the first place. Is this Porsche being opportunistic, or is there a little desperation behind two attempts at buying up the independents? The 992.2 Carrera S MT Package: A Manual By Any Other Name Porsche's new 992.2 Carrera S is offering a manual transmission again, but only as an "MT package" starting at 167K. Everyone's been begging for manuals to come back, and now that they have, it's buried inside a package instead of just being a straightforward option. Why can't Porsche just let you spec a base 911 with a manual and call it a day? We get that it's a money grab, but once you lightly option this car you're walking out the door around 185K, which is a wild number for a Carrera S. Put that next to a 991.2 GT3 that stickered at 143K back in 2019, and it's a genuinely hard pill to swallow. CPR Classic's Ponzi Scheme Collapse CPR Classic, a dealer just north of San Diego, was running a Ponzi scheme from 2022 through 2024, and the shop is now shut down with the owner serving a 21-month prison sentence. This one stings because of the history behind it. The original owner built a genuinely respected family business selling 911s for 40 years, then passed it down to his daughter after he passed away. Almost immediately the wheels came off. She stopped paying consignors for cars she'd sold, bounced checks, and ran a shell game where money from one sale would go to pay off a completely different consignor, over and over. Part of her sentence requires paying back over 9 million dollars. It's a brutal example of how fast four decades of trust can get wiped out. Outro That's it for this episode.

Real Monterey Car WeekIn this Mercedes People carrier Episode 447, Chrissy's dislocated pinky is Citroen better, Chris drives on some rocks, Mental is drowning in ACVW parts and Tim gets real itchy. Actually we bring on Neal Losey on to talk about Concourse d'Lemons, and why you should go check it out!Forget million-dollar hypercars. The best part of Monterey Car Week might be the cars nobody else would let onto the lawn.Five-time National Effing Champion Neal Losey joins Everyone Racers to take us inside the 2026 Concours d'Lemons, the gloriously disreputable counterpoint to the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance—and possibly the purest celebration of weird car culture anywhere.While Pebble Beach is polishing priceless classics, Concours d'Lemons fills the Seaside City Hall lawn with forgotten marques, questionable engineering, tiny cars, enormous drivers, former demolition-derby survivors and automotive decisions that seemed like a good idea at the time.In other words: our people.Neal tells us what it's actually like inside Concours d'Lemons during Monterey Car Week, including the packed crowds, bizarre awards, Lemons racers, rally cars, kids painting race cars, Buttercup the horse-car becoming a slide, and the Red Fang Chevy wagon arriving the most Lemons way possible: being pushed across the grass because it stopped running.That wagon has an even better ending. After winning an Index of Effluency, becoming a Red Fang tribute car and appearing at Concours, it was sold to a group of excited 22-year-old dairy farmers from Visalia preparing to become brand-new Lemons racers.That right there is why we love this community.But this is Everyone Racers, so before we reach Monterey, things get appropriately weird.We recap the Hell on Wheels Lemons Rally, including a Mitsubishi camper, a 1959 Edsel, an International Harvester, a V8-swapped RX-7, a purple Smart car and two rescue puppies. Chris and Chrissy take an old Range Rover through Colorado, where Chrissy dislocates a pinky mountain biking, Chris performs a field-expedient repair, and they continue hiking because apparently pain is merely advisory.Tim talks Pebble Beach, PGA HOPE, moving to Maine, his '59 El Camino and the rapidly expanding definition of “garage project.” Mental works on the land-speed VW and Porsche 912. Neal shares the incredible story of his mother's 1966 Mustang, bought new with six-tenths of a mile and later V8-swapped by her personally.We also hit automotive news, cheap race cars, Honda selling pieces of racing history, a spectacularly expensive Ferrari, terrible car names and the latest opportunity to make financially irresponsible racing decisions.Above all, this episode is about what Neal calls the world around Lemons: weird cars, rallies, racing, ridiculous ideas and people genuinely excited about the things they love.If you're into 24 Hours of Lemons, amateur endurance racing, low-budget motorsports, DIY race cars, classic cars, Monterey Car Week, weird automotive history or garage-built insanity, you've found your people.Because expensive cars are nice.But pure dumb joy is better.Check out Neal's Radio Shows, Morning Cup & Night Train on Demand here;https://www.kcbx.org/programs-ondemandUber Rich Guy pays too much for a stupid Ferrari (Matt Hardigee @ the Autopian)https://www.theautopian.com/someone-just-spent-40000000-on-the-first-ferrari-luce-ev-because-the-world-makes-no-sense/ Honda Will Sell And Restore Its Iconic Race Cars Through New Heritage Racing Program (Andy Kalmowitz @ Jalopnik)https://www.jalopnik.com/2235518/honda-restore-iconic-race-cars/Naming a New Vehicle Is Way Harder Than You Think (Dan Roth @ The Drive) https://www.thedrive.com/news/naming-a-new-vehicle-is-way-harder-than-you-think-and-experts-still-arent-sure-ford-got-it-rightPGA Reach Foundationhttps://www.pgareach.org/Any VW Rabbit in Stillwater MN for $3k on Racing Junk https://www.racingjunk.com/volkswagen/184812654

Initial output is 30,000 units a year, with Dutch prices from €27,995 ($32,000) and the next-generation BAYON and i20 to follow next year.HYUNDAI OPENS IONIQ 3 ORDER BOOKSHyundai Motor UK has opened orders for the IONIQ 3 compact hatchback from £22,245 on-the-road, positioning it against the Kia EV2, Renault 5 and VW ID Polo. Buyers choose a 42.2kWh battery with up to 213 miles or a 61kWh version with up to 308 miles, both charging 10-80% in about 30 minutes, and the car debuts Hyundai's Android Automotive-based PleOS Connect system. Grant eligibility is still pending.LUCID UNVEILS GRAVITY GT-SLucid's 2027 Gravity GT-S produces 1,070hp from a dual-motor powertrain and hits 0-60mph in 3.1 seconds, priced from $127,750 — about $14,000 below the outgoing Dream Edition. It comes with rear-wheel steering and adaptive air suspension as standard, while a 926V architecture supports 400kW charging that Lucid says adds 200 miles in under 12 minutes.FRANCE TO BACK USED ELECTRIC VEHICLESFrom September, France will subsidise used EV purchases and leases through the Energy Savings Certificates scheme, funded by energy suppliers including EDF, Engie and TotalEnergies under the polluter-pays principle. Cars must have been first registered in France between 2017 and 2023 and retain at least 80% battery capacity, with buyers required to keep the vehicle three years and to purchase through a dealer rather than privately.PORSCHE REPORTS POINT TO TAYCAN PHASE-OUTPorsche is reported to have agreed in principle with employee representatives to end Taycan production by 2029 or 2030, closing a roughly decade-long run, though nothing has been formalised or confirmed. Output has collapsed from 39,397 cars in 2023 to 11,510 in 2025, with first-half 2026 deliveries down 25% and no successor named as Porsche appears set to prioritise the electric Macan and Cayenne.TESLA ADDS V2L TO MODEL Y PREMIUMTesla has enabled vehicle-to-load for the Model Y Premium in the US and Puerto Rico, delivering 2.4kW at 120V via an $80 adapter that requires the Gen 3 Mobile Connector. Eligibility is narrower than the badge suggests, with reports indicating only newer Juniper-built cars from around May 2026 carry the necessary hardware, and Tesla still trails rivals offering up to 10.2kW.TESLA LEASES POWERWALL BACKUP IN TEXASTesla Electric is offering a whole-home Powerwall lease in selected Texas retail-choice areas for roughly $35 a month plus tax in year one, achieved by applying an $87 monthly credit to a two-unit lease costing about $122. The deal carries a 3% annual escalator, a $100 order fee, a 20% minimum backup reserve for virtual power plant dispatch, and credits that may not start until two billing cycles after installation and utility approval.CORVUS TO SUPPLY BATTERIES FOR BC FERRIES SUMMIT CLASSCorvus Energy will supply 40MWh of battery storage across four hybrid-electric Summit Class ferries for BC Ferries, each carrying 360 vehicles and 2,100 people and fitted with a 10MWh Dolphin NxtGen system. The hardware is scalable to 70MWh per vessel for near-zero-emission running once shore charging exists, with China Merchants' Weihai Shipyard delivering the first ship in 2029 and all four in service by 2031.FERRARI LUCE SELLS FOR $40 MILLIONChassis 0 of the Ferrari Luce, the marque's first EV and a one-off Tailor Made build designed by Sir Jony Ive's LoveFrom, sold for $40 million at RM Sotheby's Monterey auction, over 36 times its estimate and a record for a new car. The sale was offered without reserve and with no buyer's premium, sending the full amount to The Ferrari Foundation, with winning bidder Dr Herbert Wertheim taking delivery early next year.

Die Krise erreicht jetzt auch die deutschen Premium-Autohersteller. Porsche und BMW reagieren mit massiven Sparprogrammen und tausenden Stellenstreichungen. Was steckt dahinter und welche Folgen hat das für die Branche und für Aktionäre? „Premium kostet eben auch mehr. Gleichzeitig ist das Auto nicht mehr das Statussymbol wie früher und wir konkurrieren mit deutlich günstigeren Produktionsstandorten weltweit. Deshalb müssen die Unternehmen ihre Kosten konsequent in den Griff bekommen“, so Robert Halver. Der Kapitalmarktexperte von der Baader Bank weiter: „Die deutschen Autobauer bauen nach wie vor fantastische Autos. Aber Innovationen müssen wieder stärker in den Mittelpunkt rücken. 'Vorsprung durch Technik' war einmal das Markenzeichen der Branche. Genau dort müssen wir wieder hin. Erst wenn sich fundamental etwas verbessert, wird sich das auch nachhaltig in den Aktienkursen widerspiegeln.“ Alle Details im Interview von Inside Wirtschaft-Chefredakteur Manuel Koch an der Frankfurter Börse und auf https://inside-wirtschaft.de

Porsche just announced workforce cuts because of dropping sales in China. Every board reads that as an operations problem. It isn't. It's a risk problem — and it's the wrong risk almost every board is looking at. Here's what nobody asks in the boardroom: once a strategy is successfully implemented, what new risk did it just add to the business? Not the risk of getting there. The risk of what you've built once you have. That's the question 99% of boards never answer, because most don't have a way to see it.In this video I walk through how we use Michael, our internal AI, to build a digital clone of a company, plot its actual risk and return position against the efficient frontier, and test what a proposed strategy does to that position before a single dollar moves. I use Porsche as the live example: what happens to their risk profile if they cut back cautiously versus if they fully rebalance toward EV and the Americas. This isn't a theoretical framework. It's portfolio modeling — the same logic that governs a diversified investment portfolio — applied to a company's revenue streams and cost base. Correlated streams add risk. Diversified ones don't. Most executive teams have never plotted their own business this way, which means most boards are approving strategy without knowing if it moves them toward more return for the same risk, or just more risk they haven't priced. If you sit on a board, run a strategy function, or advise one, this is the question you should be asking before the next planning cycle — not after.   Free resource library.

Warum streichen DAX-Konzerne Tausende Jobs, während Investmentbanken Rekordgewinne schreiben? BMW baut 8.000 Stellen ab. Porsche streicht weitere 5.000 Jobs. Viele große Industrieunternehmen sparen, bauen Kapazitäten ab. Gleichzeitig meldet die Deutsche Bank überraschend starke Quartalszahlen und ihre Investmentbank erzielt ein Rekordergebnis. Wie kann es sein, dass Teile der Wirtschaft sparen müssen, während andere gerade besonders gut laufen? Und was bedeutet das für junge Menschen, die heute ihre Karriere planen? „Die Automobilindustrie steht gleich vor mehreren Transformationen: Elektromobilität, Digitalisierung, sinkende Nachfrage aus China sowie hohe Energie- und Personalkosten. Das setzt die Branche massiv unter Druck“, sagt der BWL-Influencer und Mitgründer von pumpkincareers David Döbele. Weiter erklärt er: „Im Investmentbanking und in der Unternehmensberatung gibt's eigentlich immer etwas zu tun. Läuft die Wirtschaft gut, geht es um Wachstum und Strategie. Läuft sie schlechter, stehen Restrukturierungen, Refinanzierungen oder Verkäufe von Unternehmen im Mittelpunkt. Das macht diese Bereiche deutlich anpassungsfähiger.“ Alle Details im Interview mit Inside Wirtschaft-Chefredakteur Manuel Koch an der Frankfurter Börse und auf https://inside-wirtschaft.de

In this episode of Evening with a Legend, we interview American endurance racer Charles Mendez about his two 24 Hours of Le Mans starts—1980 with Racing Associates in a Porsche 935 and 1981 with WM in a Peugeot P79/80—set against his broader Sebring 12 Hours legacy. Mendez recounts how promoting Sebring led to opportunities in a 935, meeting Le Mans organizers, and bringing cars overseas with little European experience. He shares first impressions of Le Mans, the realities of privateer racing, lessons from a rain-soaked 1980 retirement, and how friends helped connect him with WM for 1981 testing at Paul Ricard. Mendez details the Peugeot's quirks, high-speed Mulsanne challenges, mechanical issues during the race, why he stopped owning race cars, and his advice to young drivers: never give up and don't get cocky. The conversation also covers safety-driven track changes, today's endurance racing, Le Mans Classic, and Mendez's current life and mentoring interests. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Meet Charles Mendez 01:49 The Road to Le Mans 1980 04:19 First Impressions of Le Mans 07:14 Speed on the Mulsanne 09:34 Privateer Life at Le Mans 10:49 Lessons from 1980 11:46 Switch to WM Peugeot 14:26 Paul Ricard Test Culture Shock 16:13 Driving the Peugeot P79/80 21:07 1981 Race Challenges 25:24 Why He Didn't Return and What He'd Do Differently? 27:31 Advice for Young Drivers 28:43 How Le Mans Has Evolved 33:36 Le Mans Classic and 935s 35:56 Life After Racing 38:33 Thanks and Farewell ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: Visit Our Website Become a VIP at: Patreon Online Magazine: Gran Touring Follow us on Social: Instagram To learn more about or to become a member of the ACO USA, look no further than www.lemans.org, Click on English in the upper right corner and then click on the ACO members tab for Club Offers.

RUNDOWN Mitch and Hotshot Scott open Episode 394 debating whether Dan Wilson should survive the Mariners' brutal collapse. They revisit Seattle's 50th-season celebration, including Alex Rodriguez's reception and emotional moments with Lou Piniella and Rick Rizzs, then review the Seahawks' Hard Knocks debut before wrapping with birthday trivia. Thoughts on Dan Wilson? Mitch, Brady, and Joe debate whether a managerial change could provide one last jolt, consider Michael Arroyo and other prospects for offensive help, praise Cole Young's breakout season, and question several selections from the Mariners' 50th-season celebration. And yes, there's more Dan Wilson. Former Mets GM Steve Phillips offers the front-office perspective before turning to Seattle's shrinking pitching window, George Kirby and Emerson Hancock as potential offseason trade chips, Kade Anderson's role and Cal Raleigh's stunning regression. Somehow, Steve still sees a path to a late-season Mariners run. Mitch and Danny review the Seahawks' Hard Knocks debut and whether the massive fan reaction matched the episode itself. They debate how cameras inevitably alter behavior, prompting Mitch to recall why he once refused to put his KJR radio show on television.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Joe Doyle | MLB analyst, Over-Slot Steve Phillips | Former New York Mets GM / MLB Network Radio Danny O'Neil | The Dang Apostrophe   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Mitch and Hotshot Scott: Mariners Misery, Hard Knocks and Birthday Trivia 29:27 | Mariners No-Table: Brady Farkas and Joe Doyle on Dan Wilson's Future and a Mariners Season on the Brink 1:03:08 | Steve Phillips: Dan Wilson's Future, Seattle's Pitching Window and One Last Mariners Run 1:20:54 | Danny O'Neil: Hard Knocks, Seahawks Swagger and the Camera Effect 1:39:10 | Other Stuff: Johnston County Little League wins the 2026 Little League Softball World Series, Trent Williams sued over unpaid Porsche lease payments, Seahawks preseason begins against the Cowboys, Jadarian Price sidelined by a leg injury, Kyle Shanahan says Tesla Autopilot was engaged before his crash, Costco selling discounted Washington Huskies football ticket packages, Jacob Misiorowski becomes the second-fastest pitcher to 200 strikeouts, Tommy John enters hospice care, Brandon Clarke's death ruled an accidental drug overdose, Roger Craig reveals vascular dementia diagnosis during Hall of Fame induction.

Recently funded and aiming for sustainable retention? Intro chat (no sales pitch): professorgame.com/chat Episode Summary Travis Clapp, co-founder and CEO of Coursebox AI, joins Rob to explain how AI is reshaping course creation and delivery for a platform used in 180 countries with over 300,000 courses built on it. He walks through Coursebox's "Break My Brain" feature, an AI mode built for personalized, adversarial learning rather than points and leaderboards, and explains why the platform now generates in 10 minutes what used to take him days to compile by hand. Travis also shares two gamification experiments gone wrong, an overbuilt golf training module and a crossword in an endangered Aboriginal language, and where he draws the line between fun and function. Listeners come away with a clearer read on why surface-level game mechanics rarely move the needle, and what deep personalization through AI looks like in practice. About the Host Rob Alvarez is Head of Engagement Strategy, Europe at The Octalysis Group (TOG), a leading gamification and behavioral design consultancy. A globally recognized gamification strategist and TEDx speaker, he founded and hosts Professor Game, the #1 gamification podcast, and has interviewed hundreds of global experts. He designs evidence-based engagement systems that drive motivation, loyalty, and results, and teaches LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® and gamification at top institutions including IE Business School, EFMD, and EBS University across Europe, the Americas, and Asia. Key Takeaways Coursebox AI now generates the five-document compliance package Travis used to build by hand for RTOs in about 10 minutes, work that once took him days per client. Coursebox's "Break My Brain" feature lets a learner, or Travis himself testing it on his own sales calls, get challenged and questioned by AI instead of clicking through a linear course, engaging Core Drive 3 (Empowerment of Creativity & Feedback) and Core Drive 4 (Ownership & Possession). Travis's own team told him not to talk about leaderboards, points, certificates, or badges going into this episode, because platform-level leaderboards rarely produce deep engagement on their own, just a carrot on a stick. A German trucking client turned Coursebox training into a fully hands-free, podcast-style experience so drivers could complete quizzes and assignments by voice while on the road. Coursebox is used across 180 countries, has generated over 300,000 courses, and one flagship edX MOOC built on the platform reached more than 20,000 learners. An early gamified golf training module Travis built in 2011 nailed the learner experience but got flagged internally as the most expensive, overpriced piece of work the company had shipped, a reminder that engagement design still has to answer to budget.

At Open Colleges, he built the five-document compliance packages by hand that every RTO needs; Coursebox now generates the same packages in 10 minutes. One of his courses reached over 20,000 learners as a flagship edX MOOC. He knows what good learning takes because he spent years doing it the slow way. Before Coursebox, he founded and ran a social-based LMS for seven years, which became the foundation for what Coursebox AI is today. Four years ago he launched Coursebox AI, not to automate course creation, but to get to the part that matters: delivery. The AI tutor, the grading, the 24/7 coaching, the outcomes. Course creation, in his words, is about 1% of what the platform does. Travis still checks customer support messages at 4am.

Could Tesla really leave China—the market and manufacturing base that helped transform it into the world's most valuable automaker?In Episode #256 of China EVs & More, Tu Le and Lei Xing unpack reports that Tesla could potentially sell, spin off or close its China operations as Elon Musk considers a closer combination between Tesla and SpaceX.The implications would be enormous.Giga Shanghai accounts for roughly half of Tesla's global vehicle output, serves more than two million Tesla owners in China and remains a critical export hub supplying markets around the world.Tu and Lei debate whether Tesla could realistically walk away, who could possibly acquire Giga Shanghai, what the move could mean for Tesla's FSD ambitions in China—and whether the report could be signaling something deeper about Tesla's expectations for its automotive business.Then the conversation turns to another major disruption: Xiaomi's new SkyNomad EREV family SUVs.After finding enormous success with the SU7 and YU7, Xiaomi is now targeting the large family-SUV segment dominated by companies such as Li Auto.With the seven-seat N90 Max expected to start below RMB300,000 and offering a massive 76-kWh battery, 60-liter fuel tank and approximately 1,705 km of combined range, Xiaomi is once again using aggressive pricing to reset expectations.In this episode:• Could Tesla really sell or spin off its China business?• Why Giga Shanghai remains critical to Tesla's global manufacturing strategy• Tesla, SpaceX and the potential conflicts created by a merger• What happens to Tesla if FSD never receives full approval in China?• Who could realistically buy Tesla's Shanghai factory?• Tesla's growing reliance on exports from China• Xiaomi's new SkyNomad N90 and N70 family SUVs• Why Xiaomi's pricing should worry Li Auto• Xiaomi's highly automated Beijing factory• Why Xiaomi's latest technology event disappointed some investors• Audi's China-only EV strategy and Momenta-powered ADAS• BMW, Porsche and the continuing challenges facing German automakers• Why NIO is prioritizing profitability over global expansion• Battery swapping vs. charging outside China• How quickly ICE vehicles could disappear from China's domestic market• Why China's unwanted ICE capacity could eventually flood emerging marketsIf you want to understand the forces reshaping the world's largest automotive market—and what they mean for Tesla, Xiaomi, BYD, NIO, XPeng and the global automotive industry—subscribe to China EVs & More.Hosted by Tu Le of Sino Auto Insights and Lei Xing, bringing decades of firsthand experience covering China's automotive, EV, AV and mobility industries.

The Turbo GT3 Rumor: The End of Naturally Aspirated Porsche Okay, this is the one everyone's going to have an opinion on. Word on the street is that the next GT3 and the 911 R will be turbocharged, and the GT2 RS is set to get hybrid assisted turbo power. If that pans out, it makes it official: Porsche will no longer build a naturally aspirated engine, full stop. That's a massive deal and there's a lot to unpack. What does this do to every N/A car that came before it? What happens to the GT cars specifically, which have always been the naturally aspirated holdouts even after the regular 911 line went turbo? Quick refresher for anyone not paying close attention, Porsche killed the N/A engine in the standard, non-GT 911 back in the 2017 model year, when the 991.2 generation switched to the 3.0 turbo. GT cars have been the last line of defense since then. So now the question is how the market and the fanbase receive a turbocharged GT3. Good? Bad? We've already watched this play out once, there's been a clear camp for almost ten years now chasing the last true N/A 911s, the 991.1 generation specifically, and that divide has only gotten more pronounced as time goes on. If the GT3 goes turbo too, does that camp just get bigger, or does the car end up winning people over anyway? Let's dive in. Rally Season: Get Your Cars Ready PSA time. Doors to rally season are closing fast, officially. If your car isn't ready, now's the time. Oil changes, tires, coolant if you're due, brakes, all of it. Give your independent shop a real runway to get your car sorted instead of showing up last minute. We're only about six weeks out from some of the first rallies of the season, so don't sleep on this. Luft Tickets Are Live Luft tickets went on sale, so hopefully everyone who wanted in got their tickets locked down. Not sure if it's sold out at this point, haven't checked back in, but if you're looking to display a car they're still taking applications right now. Worth getting on that if you want to be part of the show and not just in the crowd. The Ducktail GT3: Hillclimb Homage or Something Else? There's a GT3 running around the Nürburgring wearing a ducktail, and rumor has it this is yet another GT3 variant, this one supposedly paying homage to Porsche's 1960s hillclimb cars. Before the turbo GT3 drops, are we thinking Porsche rolls out a wave of special models to send off the N/A era? Feels likely. Here's the disagreement though: I don't buy the hillclimb homage story. I think people are reading this wrong. My take is this is the homage to the '73 RS with the ducktail that Porsche has talked about building for years, this is finally that car. Curious what you all think, hillclimb tribute or the RS ducktail we've been waiting on? Thank you for your support! Kimchi Crew: Steve, Leslie, Chris, Ken, Aaron, Matthew, Sean, and Nik

Your story is more than something that happened to you. It can become the bridge between what you've lived, what you've learned, and the people who need to hear what you now know. When we learn how to uncover the right stories, we can use them to create connection, build trust, teach, lead, and ultimately help someone else move forward. But there's an art to knowing which story to tell, when to tell it, and how much of it belongs in the room. And when you combine your lived experience with the wisdom you've gained along the way, your story becomes something people don't just hear – they remember. Today, I'm joined by Porsché Mysticque Steele, a TEDx speaker, book coach, publishing professional, and founder of Mystique Rose Publishing. Porsché and I first connected at a book marketing conference, and once we started talking, I knew there was so much more to her story than the work she does today. In this conversation, she opens up about the extraordinary journey that led her from a deeply controlled childhood to becoming a successful entrepreneur, speaker, and publishing expert – and what that journey taught her about the power of telling your story. Join me and Porsché as we talk about:

The Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen, Toyota Land Cruiser + 4Runner, Porsche 911, Ford F-150, and Range Rover, all have several things in common. Slow depreciation compared to other vehicles in their class, nameplates that have lasted for decades, loyal owners that keep coming back for more and bucket listed for others. But what's the ONE thing they all unanimously share? Automotive authenticity. That's right - these vehicles have never strayed too far from their original design and intended purpose since inception. The Ford F-150 has always been a rugged, body-on-frame truck. The G-Wagen, 4Runner, and Land Cruiser have always been boxy SUVs that have stayed true to their design and off-road capability without compromise. The Porsche 911 has always had the engine behind its driver and will continue to do so until the end of time. Today's episode explores more into what authenticity - and deception - mean in an automotive context. Blob-shaped SUVs like the Bentley Bentayga, Lamborghini Urus, and Ferrari Purosangue are one thing - they claim to do everything well, but end up not fully delivering on this promise and often depreciate like rocks. On the subject of deception - Jason and Derek discuss the new Ferrari 12Cilindri Manuale - the most recent car of its kind which claims to be a manual and automatic at the same time, by automating a dual clutch transmission to operate like a manual on demand - third pedal, gated shifter and all. But is it really good for the brand in the long run vs. spending the development cost on a real manual? The Carmudgeons….carmudgeonate on our behalf. Tune in to find out.
