Tait Duryea and Ryan Gibson break down one of the most important but often misunderstood parts of real estate investing: the capital stack. They explain how senior debt, mezzanine debt, preferred equity, and common equity shape risk, returns, and who gets paid first. For pilots and high-income professionals evaluating passive income opportunities, this episode offers a practical framework for understanding leverage, deal structure, DSCR, private credit, and why projected returns do not tell the whole story.Show notes:(0:00) Intro(1:10) Ways investors get paid(3:08) Capital stack basics(4:11) Debt drives real estate risk(7:32) All-cash versus leveraged deals(10:31) Common equity explained(18:50) Preferred equity position(21:10) Checking debt ahead(27:39) Rescue capital versus healthy deals(35:36) Operator view on structure(42:05) DSCR and cash flow cushion(57:18) OutroRelated Episode: #2 - Invest Passively in DST and Opportunity Zones with Brandon BruckmanIf you're interested in participating, the latest institutional-quality self-storage portfolio is available for investment now at: https://turbinecap.investnext.com/portal/offerings/8449/houston-storage/ — You've found the number one resource for financial education for aviators!

In this episode, Collin Martin and Liz Ann Sonders focus on the outlook for equities, fixed income, and the overall U.S. economy in the second half of 2026. They begin by discussing recent inflation data, noting that while CPI remains elevated, core inflation came in slightly better than expected. Both agree inflation is not quickly returning to the Fed's target, but easing expectations and stable inflation expectations suggest the Federal Reserve can remain patient for now. The key risk is whether higher prices, especially at the pump, begin to erode consumer spending, as real wages have turned negative year over year. From a policy perspective, Collin expects the Fed to stay on hold through year-end, despite the fed funds futures market pricingin a potential hike. He emphasizes that short-term yields should remain steady, while longer-term Treasury yields may stay elevated due to persistent inflation, heavy Treasury issuance, and global rate pressures. In this environment, he suggests favoring short-to-intermediate bond durations and selectively considering credit risk via investment-grade corporates, high yields, and preferred securities. Liz Ann focuses on the outlook for equity investors, highlighting a shift back to a negative correlation between bond yields and stocks—more characteristic of inflation-driven regimes. Her midyear forecast points to a solid economic backdrop, led by resilient GDP growth, strong capital spending tied to AI, and a healthy labor market, though some early warning signals are emerging in survey-based employment data. The episode closes with a cautious but constructive outlook: no immediate recession signals, but investors should consider prioritizing diversification, risk management, and periodically rebalancing as markets navigate inflation, policy uncertainty, and evolving leadership trends.

This should not be considered an individualized recommendation or personalized investment advice. The securities, investment products and investment strategies mentioned are not suitable for everyone. Each investor needs to review an investment strategy for his or her own particular situation before making any investment decisions. All expressions of opinion are subject to change without notice in reaction to shifting market, economic or political conditions. Data contained herein from third party providers is obtained from what are considered reliable sources. However, its accuracy, completeness or reliability cannot be guaranteed. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investing involves risk, including loss of principal. Performance may be affected by risks associated with non-diversification, including investments in specific countries or sectors. Additional risks may also include, but are not limited to, investments in foreign securities, especially emerging markets, real estate investment trusts (REITs), fixed income, municipal securities including state specific municipal securities, small capitalization securities and commodities. Each individual investor should consider these risks carefully before investing in a particular security or strategy. Fixed income securities are subject to increased loss of principal during periods of rising interest rates. Fixed income investments are subject to various other risks including changes in credit quality, market valuations, liquidity, prepayments, early redemption, corporate events, tax ramifications, and other factors. Lower rated securities are subject to greater credit risk, default risk, and liquidity risk. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS) are inflation-linked securities issued by the US Government whose principal value is adjusted periodically in accordance with the rise and fall in the inflation rate. Thus, the dividend amount payable is also impacted by variations in the inflation rate, as it is based upon the principal value of the bond. It may fluctuate up or down. Repayment at maturity is guaranteed by the US Government and may be adjusted for inflation to become the greater of the original face amount at issuance or that face amount plus an adjustment for inflation. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities are guaranteed by the US Government, but inflation-protected bond funds do not provide such a guarantee. Preferred securities are a type of hybrid investment that share characteristics of both stock and bonds. They are often callable, meaning the issuing company may redeem the security at a certain price after a certain date. Such call features, and the timing of a call, may affect the security's yield. Preferred securities generally have lower credit ratings and a lower claim to assets than the issuer's individual bonds. Like bonds, prices of preferred securities tend to move inversely with interest rates, so their prices may fall during periods of rising interest rates. Investment value will fluctuate, and preferred securities, when sold before maturity, may be worth more or less than original cost. Preferred securities are subject to various other risks including changes in interest rates and credit quality, default risks, market valuations, liquidity, prepayments, early redemption, deferral risk, corporate events, tax ramifications, and other factors. High-yield securities and unrated securities of similar credit quality (junk bonds) are subject to greater levels of credit and liquidity risks and may be more volatile than higher-rated securities. High-yield securities are considered predominately speculative with respect to the issuer's continuing ability to make principal and interest payments.

The Kabbalists taught that when one recites the "Ana Be'cho'ah" prayer, he should arrange the words of the prayer in pairs. Meaning, he should say the first two words, briefly pause, say the next two words, pause, and so on. This is the instruction given by Rav Haim Vital (1543-1620), in Sha'ar Ha'kavanot, based on the teachings of the Arizal. This is brought later by the Ben Ish Hai (Rav Yosef Haim of Baghdad, 1833-1909) and the Kaf Ha'haim (Rav Yaakob Haim Sofer, Baghdad-Jerusalem, 1870-1939). However, Rav Meir Mazuz (1945-2025) ruled that one should not follow this custom, as the reading becomes unintelligible in this manner. By reciting the text of this prayer in pairs of words, one ends up saying, "Ana Be'cho'ah" – "Please, with the strength"; "Gedulat Yeminecha" – "the greatness of Your right"; "Tatir Serura" – "release those who are trapped"; "Kabel Rinat" – "accept the prayer of"; "Amecha Sagebenu" – "Your nation, protect us"; "Taharenu Nora" – "purify us, O Awesome One," and so on. The words are clearly not intended to be broken up in alternating pairs of two, as they have no meaning when recited this way. Rav Mazuz therefore ruled that one should recite the text of the prayer this way: "Ana Be'cho'ah Gedulat Yeminecha" ("Please with the power of the greatness of Your right"), "Tatir Serura" ("release those who are trapped"); "Kabel Rinat Amecha" ("Accept the prayer of Your nation"); "Sagebenu Taharenu Nora" ("protect us, purify us, O Awesome One"). (Incidentally, Rav Mazuz issued a similar ruling regarding the recitation of the famous verse, "Hashem Hoshi'a Ha'Melech Ya'anenu Be'yom Kor'enu." The Kabbalists instructed pausing after the word "Ha'melech," such that one should say: "Hashem Hoshi'a Ha'Melech, Ya'anenu Be'yom Kor'enu." Rav Mazuz noted that this reading sounds as though we ask Hashem to save the King ("Hoshi'a Ha'melech"). The proper way to read this verse, Rav Mazuz ruled, is with the pause after the word "Hoshi'a," such that we say, "Hashem save us; the King shall answer us on the day we call out.") Some Siddurim use a very complex system in punctuating this prayer, adding commas and periods, in an attempt to accommodate both opinions. In any event, Rav Yisrael Bitan writes that as the Arizal, the Ben Ish Hai and the Kaf Ha'haim all say that this prayer should be divided into pairs of words, it is difficult to dismiss this practice. Therefore, this is the preferred way to read Ana Be'cho'ah.

In this episode of Cents Chat, Kitty and Jason sit down with Jordan Thaeler, founder of POS+, to talk about one of the biggest tensions in embedded payments: the difference between a preferred payments partner and a payments prison. For years, ISVs have built real revenue streams by integrating payments into their platforms, and when done well, that model can create a better experience for everyone. The trouble starts when “preferred” quietly becomes “mandatory,” pricing drifts out of line, functionality lags, and merchants realize they are not choosing a payments provider so much as being cornered into one.Jordan breaks down how POS+ is pushing back on that model by giving merchants more payment choice without forcing them to rip out the software they already use to run their business. The conversation gets into merchant frustration, ISV monetization, payment flow workarounds, AI-driven adaptability, and why the smartest platforms should stop treating friction like a moat. The takeaway for ISVs is simple: pick a great default payments partner, make the economics fair, keep the experience strong, and give merchants a reasonable path to alternatives. Most merchants will choose the preferred option if it actually earns the business. But nobody likes being trapped.

“Every woman deserves the chance to have a real discussion about hormone therapy — and make whatever decision is right for her. I'm here to give information and answer questions. It's your body.”— Dr. Jacqueline RiedelThe doctor who finally has time for youDr. Jacqueline Riedel, DO spent 15 years in family medicine where she learned this: women's hormonal health in midlife was profoundly under-treated and misunderstood. In a busy hospital-based clinic, she'd start a long-overdue conversation with a patient about perimenopause symptoms… and have to cut it off because the schedule demanded it.So she left. She opened Magnolia Midlife Women's Health, a direct-care practice built on something simple but radical: unhurried, conversational visits where women can actually ask their questions, get real answers, and leave feeling seen.In this conversation, she covers what's really happening hormonally in your 30s, 40s, and 50s and why everything you were told to fear about hormone therapy probably isn't the full story.Perimenopause starts earlier than you thinkDr. Riedel sees women with perimenopause symptoms long before any changes in the menstrual cycle. If you've been dismissed, or told your symptoms are just stress or mom-brain, you're not alone. Symptoms she commonly sees:• New insomnia: can't fall asleep or waking for no apparent reason• Anxiety, often misread as “just life stress”• Persistent, unexplained fatigue• Hot flashes and night sweats• Mood changes including irritability, low mood, brain fog• Cycle irregularities such as heavier periods, irregular timingDr. Riedel's approach: map symptoms to your cycle. When do they happen? Are there patterns? She also rules out other common causes, including thyroid issues and iron deficiency before exploring hormone therapy as an option.MYTH BUSTINGThe fears holding women back from reliefTwo decades after the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) study was misread and sensationalized, fear still dominates the conversation around hormone therapy. Dr. Riedel sets the record straight.Myth 1: Hormone therapy causes breast cancer.Fact: Long-term WHI follow-up showed women in the hormone treatment group had lower rates of breast cancer. Even a first-degree family history is not a contraindication. And if breast cancer does occur in someone using MHT, their risk of dying is actually lower than in those not using it.Myth 2: The doses in MHT are dangerously high.Fact: Menopausal hormone therapy doses are far lower than those in oral contraceptive pills. If you'd prescribe the pill, you can't logically call MHT dangerous.Myth 3: Vaginal estrogen has systemic effects and should be avoided in cancer history.Fact: Topical vaginal estrogen has negligible systemic absorption. It reduces UTIs, yeast infections, urinary frequency, and pelvic floor dysfunction, even in women under active breast cancer treatment, per emerging oncology research. The FDA recently removed the black-box warning.TREATMENT OVERVIEWHow Dr. Riedel approaches careThere's no single protocol. Dr. Riedel listens first, identifying the top two or three symptoms most affecting quality of life, and builds from there.Progesterone for sleep & anxiety• Stimulates GABA production, a calming neurotransmitter• Helps with sleep onset and staying asleep• Reduces the racing mind at 2am• Often the first place she startsEstrogen for vasomotor symptoms• Addresses night sweats, hot flashes, palpitations• Keeps estrogen levels from dropping to “empty”• Preferred as transdermal (patch, gel, spray) to avoid blood clot risk• Added when progesterone alone isn't enoughVaginal estrogen for urogenital health• Reduces painful intercourse and dryness• Decreases UTIs and yeast infections• Supports pelvic floor health long-term• About 50% of women need this even on systemic estrogenNon-hormonal options when hormones aren't right• Newer medications targeting particular neurons in the hypothalamus (hot flash regulation)Things you can do and questions to askDr. Riedel's conversation offers practical starting points for women navigating this transition on their own or with a provider.01. Track your symptoms in relation to your cycleSleep disruption, anxiety, and mood changes that follow a cyclic pattern are often hormonal in origin. Note when in your cycle you feel worst because this information is gold for any provider visit.02. Ask your doctor to rule out thyroid and iron firstFatigue, brain fog, and sleep issues can also come from iron deficiency or thyroid dysfunction. Simple labs can clarify what you're actually dealing with before hormones enter the picture.03. Reconsider what's in your sleep toolkitAlcohol before bed worsens sleep, hot flashes, and anxiety, even though it feels like it helps. Benadryl/ZQuil, Ambien, and benzodiazepines disrupt true sleep architecture. CBT for insomnia has strong evidence and virtually zero side effects. 06. Consider this a second puberty — not a declineMidlife is a genuine developmental threshold. Dr. Riedel and Margaret Mead's concept of “postmenopausal zest” both point in the same direction: this can be a time of clarity, reclaimed energy, and real possibility if you get the support your body actually needs.REFERENCES & RESOURCES[Podcast] Kelly Casperson, MD — You Are Not BrokenUrologist and leading voice in the menopause space.

Last week, Strategy overtook BlackRock, issuer of the world's largest bitcoin exchange-traded fund, IBIT, to become the world's largest institutional holder of bitcoin. The milestone followed yet another enormous purchase: between April 13 and April 19, according to a recent Securities and Exchange Commission filing, Strategy bought $2.54 billion worth of bitcoin, its largest acquisition since November 2024. The purchase brought the company's total holdings to 815,061 BTC—about 3.88% of bitcoin's fixed 21 million supply—currently worth around $65 billion. The only larger holder is thought to be Satoshi Nakamoto, the elusive founder of the cryptocurrency who disappeared 15 years ago. The funding for Strategy's latest bitcoin buying spree is not coming from flooding the market with common shares or convertible debt, but mainly from what traders affectionately call “Stretch,” a high-yield perpetual preferred stock the company has been issuing under the symbol STRC. Saylor, Strategy's chairman, has been touting Stretch as the critical underpinning of the next phase of his bitcoin empire. From 2020 through 2024, Strategy financed its bitcoin binge largely by selling convertible notes and issuing common stock. It was a shrewd display of financial engineering while it lasted. As bitcoin climbed and investors bid Strategy shares to eye-popping premiums over the value of the company's underlying bitcoin, Saylor could keep issuing more bonds convertible into stock and selling common shares to hedge funds and other investors anticipating a windfall. At points, the stock traded at two to three times the value of bitcoin on its balance sheet. By Nina Bambysheva, Deputy Editor Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode Jess explores the complexities of procurement, including bids, tenders and preferred supplier agreements. If you've been looking at these as a shortcut to big contracts Jess shares the competitive realities of these processes and why they are rarely the 'easy win' they appear to be. With many decision makers often out of the office throughout the summer months it's vital to prioritise the right business development activities and tighten up your sales strategy so tune in to learn why a sharp strategy in May is your best defense against a quiet July Key Topics Definitions and Distinctions Learn what preferred supplier agreements, bids, and tenders actually are 14:14 Differentiates between: Preferred supplier agreements (agreements to be a first point of call, often at a discount) 15:07 Tenders (organisations inviting suppliers to quote for a specific value/project) 17:20 Bids (suppliers' direct response/proposal to tenders) 19:15 Where to Find Bids, Tenders, and PSAs Understanding of public sector portals, government and council websites for sourcing 20:16 Explains why a business model built solely on price-cutting and competitive bids often fails to scale  21:21 Challenges and Realities of Bids and Tenders Highlights the extreme competitiveness of the environment 23:15 Explains that not all organisations use their PSAs or tender lists exclusively-sometimes specialist suppliers are needed 25:02 Notes that organisations use tender/bid processes for benchmarking, sometimes wasting suppliers' time 26:36 Points out how established relationships and proactive business development often influence selection 27:21 Lack of Control and Time Investment Describes the lengthy, uncertain, and often frustrating processes for suppliers 29:44 Emphasises the value of control in one's sales process versus passive, unreliable pipeline building 30:20 Explains the restrictions of PSA agreements (e.g. often cannot proactively contact decision makers) 31:02 Surprising Complexity vs. Perceived Ease Discusses the hidden work involved and misconceptions perpetuated both by proponents and internal procurement teams 32:41 Describes frequent delays, shifting requirements, and unpredictability 33:41 Strategic Perspective for Coaches, Consultants, Speakers, and Trainers Advises listeners to approach bids and tenders with eyes wide open 35:12 Explains why controlling the sales process is more stable, consultative, and ultimately preferable 36:19 Endorses using bids/tenders as a bonus, not a core sales strategy-unless there's an established relationship 37:04 Encourages proactive business development over reliance on tenders/PSAs 38:17 Key Quotes "Just because those organisations have preferred supplier lists... doesn't mean that that is always who they end up using." 24:45 "If you don't have that relationship, prior knowledge... it's really, really difficult to get that signed off." 30:28 "Go in eyes wide open... treat unsolicited bid submissions like a lottery ticket-a possible bonus, but not a reliable strategy for predictable income." 38:08 In some cases, being on a preferred supplier agreement even restricts your ability to network internally within an organisation, limiting future opportunities and risking removal from the agreement if rules are broken 32:04. The "easy win" of PSAs or tenders is usually an illusion; substantial effort, little control, high competition, and unpredictable returns are the norm 33:41.

Follow us on Apple Podcasts, YouTube, Spotify, X, Unchained and wherever you get your podcasts. ---- DeFi TVL fell from $99.5 to $86.3 billion in 48 hours after the $290 million Kelp DAO exploit — the latest nine-figure attack attributed to North Korea's Lazarus Group, this time via a compromised Layer Zero bridge.  Meanwhile, a new class of yield-bearing instrument is staking a claim on capital fleeing private credit: Apyx's APY USD, backed by Strategy's STRC preferred stock, launched on Kraken this week with a 12% yield target and $180 million in supply after just seven weeks. Is STRC-backed yield a legitimate financial primitive, or a Bitcoin derivative with extra steps?  And as DeFi absorbs yet another devastating security failure, is the industry's core assumption — that incoming transactions should be treated as legitimate — finally due for an overhaul?
