Podcasts about Private

On today's show, we're lifting the veil on a little-known profession in the legal field: private judges. These are judges that businesses or individuals resort to when traditional courts are too slow, too expensive, or too time-consuming. But first, AI is helping out with our holiday shopping. Adobe Analytics says traffic to retail websites that originated from AI tools like chatbots was up 805% compared to last year.

When Jenny Evans was sexually assaulted and confidential details appeared in a national newspaper, she decided to investigate – uncovering police corruption, tabloid spying, and phone-hacking. Jenny got a role in her first feature film when she was just 19 years old. At a film party in London she became separated from her friends and was sexually assaulted by a public figure she'd just met. At first she was too traumatised to report what had happened. But later, when other women came forward with similar stories about the same man, she finally felt able to go to the police. She provided a full testimony, but was shocked to see details from her police interview appear in a tabloid newspaper just a few days later. Jenny could not understand how this had happened, and the repeated tabloid stories about her led to a building sense of paranoia – she no longer knew who to trust. She eventually refused to talk to the police, the case against her attacker collapsed, and he was never prosecuted. Jenny decided to train as a journalist to discover what had really taken place between the police and the press. She teamed up with the well-known investigative journalist Nick Davies, and helped to uncover corruption in London's Metropolitan Police Service and illegal newsgathering practices by some national newspapers including phone-hacking and spying. Their investigations contributed to some high-profile resignations, and the closure of one of the newspapers at the heart of the phone-hacking scandal. Jenny eventually received an apology and substantial payout from the Metropolitan Police.This interview contains a description of sexual assault at the outset.Presenter: Asya Fouks Producer: Rebecca Vincent and Elena Angelides Lives Less Ordinary is a podcast from the BBC World Service that brings you the most incredible true stories from around the world. Each episode a guest shares their most dramatic, moving, personal story.

When it comes to the risks to financial stability, things seem to have settled down a bit. But with trade tensions, an unpredictable US economic policy, geopolitical issues, a potential AI bubble and the rise of stablecoins, there is plenty to keep an eye on. Has the global environment really become less uncertain? And how do all these factors impact financial stability? To explore these questions and more, our host Paul Gordon speaks with financial stability expert John Fell. The views expressed are those of the speakers and not necessarily those of the European Central Bank. Recorded on 24 November 2025 and published on 27 November 2025. In this episode: 01:25 How stable is the financial system? The EU and the United States reached a trade agreement, and the economic impact of trade uncertainty has been milder than expected. But the full effects of the policy changes are yet to be seen. So, what does this mean for financial stability? 04:14 Is there an AI bubble? The term “AI bubble” is on everyone's lips right now . But bubbles are hard to identify and even harder to differentiate from legitimate growth. So, are valuations stretched? What about market concentration and circular funding in the AI industry? And how exactly are companies funding investment in AI? 06:15 If there is a bubble, what could cause it to burst? There is significant leverage behind AI investments. Returns will largely depend on how widely AI is adopted. Could AI become a general-purpose technology, like the railways did? 08:15 What about the rise of private credit? How do private credit markets differ from equity financing? Why are risks to euro area financial stability increasing as private markets expand? And how does all this relate to systemic risk in the banking sector and the build-up of AI infrastructure? 11:23 Are stablecoins really stable? Despite what the name suggests, stablecoins carry liquidity run risks that could affect financial stability. With rapid growth and increasing links to traditional finance, what risks does this innovation create? 15:11 What's the situation for government financing? Governments have made progress in reducing debt levels since the pandemic. But in some euro area countries, debt remains too high and pressures to increase spending – for instance on defence – are rising. While this poses one of the biggest risks to financial stability, it could also be an opportunity for long-term growth if properly managed. 18:07 What about banks? Given the potential AI bubble, questions around the sustainability of government budgets and the rise in stablecoins, where does this leave euro area banks? Profitability is strong and non-performing loan ratios are historically low. So, how is the banking sector doing overall? 20:13 Our guest's hot tip John Fell shares his hot tip with listeners.

In this powerful conversation, luxury specialist Michael LaFido sits down with James Dwiggins—third-generation broker, co-founder of NextHome, and host of Real Estate Insiders Unfiltered—to unpack what's really happening in real estate post–August 17, 2024 and why every agent, team leader, and broker-owner needs to pay attention. James was one of the first voices in the industry to publicly lay out what the commission lawsuits and settlement would mean for real estate professionals, long before most leaders were talking about it. In this episode, he and Michael break down how offers of compensation have changed, why “just put it in the offer” is the safest path forward, and how agents may be unknowingly exposing themselves to steering claims and future litigation. They also dive deep into the high-stakes battle between Compass and Zillow, private networks, and the looming threat of a “private listings war” that could reshape the MLS, crush smaller brokerages, and even push Zillow to become a full-blown brokerage. Throughout the discussion, one theme stays front and center: your fiduciary duty to the consumer, and why transparency and exposure—not secrecy and restriction—are still the best path for both buyers and sellers. In this episode, you'll learn: What actually changed for buyers and sellers after August 17, 2024 Why calling the listing agent to ask “What will your seller pay the buyer's broker?” is a legal landmine How to structure your buyer rep and compensation conversations to reduce risk The real difference between MLS-wide private networks and brokerage-only private networks How the Compass vs. Zillow fight could trigger massive consolidation—and what that means for your future in this business

This week, I'm sharing a quick Thanksgiving-week reflection on why I still believe in private practice, even when the work feels hard… along with a simple exercise to help you reconnect with the good stuff in all of this.(If you ever ask yourself if the hassle of owning a business is worth it - that exercise will help.)As we head into the holiday here in the U.S., I know many of you have a lot on your plate.

Nine Mistakes Wealthy People Make Episode 359 – A few weeks ago we took an in-depth look at some of the things wealthy people understand that the rest of us tend to miss. Today, we'll take a look at the opposite: some financial mistakes that even wealthy people tend to make, and how we can help avoid them. More SML Planning Minute Podcast Episodes Transcript of Podcast Episode 359 Hello, this is Bill Rainaldi, with another edition of Security Mutual's SML Planning Minute. In today's episode: nine mistakes wealthy people make. A few weeks ago, we took an in-depth look at some of the things affluent people understand that the rest of us seem to miss. But even successful, well-educated people do some dumb things. Today, we'll cover the exact opposite of what we did before: some financial mistakes that even wealthy people tend to make. Here are nine of them: Putting too much money into a single investment. Diversification is one of the cardinal rules of investing, but many wealthy people tend to break it. And it's understandable why. So many of the ultra-rich became that way by starting, or investing in, just one or a handful of companies. Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos are great examples of this. At some point, putting too much money into a single investment just creates unnecessary risk. Some employees at companies like Enron and Lehman Brothers put all their retirement savings in their company stock. It worked spectacularly—for a while—but it eventually became almost worthless in a very short time. [1] Very few investors enjoy the measure of success that Musk and Bezos experienced. They can be underinsured. It doesn't really matter how wealthy you are, people make mistakes with their insurance across the board. If you don't have enough homeowner's insurance, it could end up costing you millions if you live in a valuable home.[2] And if you're concerned about your children and grandchildren, life insurance can be an important and efficient way to transfer your wealth to future generations. They have too much personal real estate. Some wealthy people tend to have too many expensive homes in remote places that they rarely visit. And they can be a significant cash drain. If you don't use the place frequently, it may not be worth holding onto it. If you want to vacation in some unusual places, sometimes it may be better to rent.[3] Or if you insist on keeping the place, maybe you should consider renting it out when you're not using it. Trying to keep up with their peers. It's human nature, and the wealthy aren't exempt from keeping up with the Joneses. When we see our friends living it up, it tends to make us want to do the same. And if we're not careful, it could mean significantly less savings and too much debt.[4] Lack of liquidity. Private equity is all the rage these days, but there's a downside. Some people tend to be too optimistic when they buy into illiquid assets. The fact is that for a variety of reasons, most of them don't work out, even if it seems like a great idea. And if it doesn't work out, it can be a drag on your finances for years.[5] Fear of missing out, or “FOMO.” It seems that no one is exempt from this. Believe it or not, a recent study suggested that the wealthy are actually among the worst offenders.[6] Rich people may think they know better than the average investor. But they can be just as susceptible to media hype and/or greed. It pays to keep a long-term perspective and remember the fundamentals. Neglecting estate planning. What do Howard Hughes, Prince, Sonny Bono and Pablo Picasso have in common? They all died with a lot of money but without a will.[7] It seems that the wealthy should all have done at least some rudimentary estate planning. But that's not always the case.Whether you have a lot of money or not, you probably want to make sure it goes to the people or charitable organizations you care the most about. But if you don't have an estate plan, you give up your right to decide these things. And it's not just a will. It can be a succession plan for your business or an advance medical directive.[8] Lifestyle creep. There is a tendency among the wealthy: the more you make, the more you end up spending on things like travel, fancy meals and transportation. There are so many examples of people—such as Michael Jackson or Lindsay Lohan—who overdid it and paid the price later on. The truth is that it's easy to increase your lifestyle, but once you're there, it's much harder to bring it back down. If you're not careful, spending habits can become unsustainable for just about anybody.[9] Not understanding that wealth is about more than money. Newsflash: some of the richest people in the world are terribly unhappy. In the words of author Riley Clendenin, “True financial success isn't just about accumulating wealth—it's about using money as a tool to build a meaningful, balanced life. The smartest investors understand that their financial portfolio is only one part of their overall wealth, and they invest just as much in their health, personal growth, and happiness as they do in their bank accounts.”[10] The ultra-wealthy certainly have the benefit of a bigger cushion when they make a financial error. And they all make mistakes, some big, some little. But the rest of us can also learn something from the errors that wealthy people tend to make, and how to avoid them.

Don and Tom go deep on a shady “non-profit” financial education group that funnels retirees into high-commission indexed annuities, using a listener tip to unpack the advisor's fake credentials, mismatched ADV filings, dubious fiduciary claims, and the simple math that reveals where the money really comes from. Along the way, they cover how to investigate advisors yourself, why financial fairy tales persist, and answer listener questions on Avantis gold holdings, private equity's impact on small-cap value, and the quality of Schwab's 529 plan. 0:04 Don's industry rant and a look at the “American Financial Education Alliance” disguise. 1:01 How pseudo-nonprofits target advisors and consumers with “no-sales” sales pitches. 2:20 Tom's take on the recycled seminar game and fake educator designations. 3:40 Listener tip sparks Don's PI dive into the flyer, claims, and contradictions. 4:49 How to vet advisors using BrokerCheck and Form ADV. 5:58 The firm's tiny AUM and impossible economics of their claimed operations. 8:02 The Maryland house vs. the Lakewood Ranch mansion — where the money REALLY comes from. 9:25 The inevitable reveal: indexed annuity commissions driving the whole machine. 10:18 Breaking down the seminar pitch language and the deceptive “market returns without risk” promise. 11:24 Why the sales story collapses under math and dividends. 12:34 The “licensed fiduciary” myth and regulatory reality for small firms. 14:38 How consumers get fooled by the fiduciary framing in seminar mailers. 16:13 Don and Tom dissect the pre-fab radio/TV show factories behind these advisors. 17:19 Why the meeting is the real sales trap — and how to avoid it. 18:48 Don's plea: stop believing financial fairy tales. 19:26 Don jokes about infiltrating steak-dinner seminars undercover. 20:14 Transition to listener Q&A from Maryland: AVDV's gold exposure. 21:26 Why Avantis owns gold miners without being “in gold.” 23:47 Momentum, value screens, and why the gold weight makes sense. 24:26 Gold Hill, Oregon 529 question: Is the Schwab plan good? 25:30 Age-based 529s and Schwab's low-cost structure. 27:28 Private equity fears: will it starve small-cap value indexes? 28:41 Why the concern is mostly a media creation, not an investment reality. 29:48 Don on the IPO–private–IPO cycle and how markets actually work. 30:11 Why private equity performs worse in bad markets.

We cover her long-term S&P 500 forecast, why she believes we are still early in a secular bull market, how technological innovation is fueling productivity and profitability, the risks she's watching in 2026, and the case for international stocks, gold, and diversification.

Drew and Rory pull up to Episode 57 running on fumes and caffeine, only to get smacked in the face by one of the wildest AI weeks of the year. Midjourney drops two new features back-to-back like it's nothing, Google drops Nano Banana Pro into the world like a nuke, and both guys are out here pretending they're emotionally prepared (they're not).They clown themselves for completely misusing Style Creator on day one, break down how user profiles actually work, and speculate on whether v8 is hiding the surgical editing tools everyone's been begging for.Then the Nano Banana Pro segment hits and things get unhinged: micro-edits that used to take an hour now take a second, text layouts that look like a designer touched them, coherence hacks, refraction tricks, split-stack continuity workflows, and some examples from the community that genuinely feel illegal.If you're trying to stay ahead in Midjourney, Gemini, or AI creative workflows in general, this episode is basically the “don't-get-left-behind” starter pack.---⏱️ Midjourney Fast Hour 00:00 – Cold open + Thanksgiving chaos01:16 – Stream kickoff + why this week exploded01:47 – Midjourney drops two features in two days02:23 – First reactions to Style Creator04:52 – How Style Creator confuses everyone at first06:18 – Refining styles + the 5–15 refinement rule07:40 – Style history, safety nets, and code tracking08:36 – Eliminating style-drift anxiety09:25 – What Style Creator still gets wrong10:21 – Smart Search wish-list + missing features11:29 – Does refinement actually improve downstream results?12:15 – Style Creator verdict: fun, but who needs it?13:26 – Ending sessions + saving yourself from randomness14:38 – Style Creator wrap-up15:08 – Midjourney user profiles deep dive17:34 – Spotlight, archive, and profile curation18:43 – Private vs stealth vs public image management20:47 – Social linking + hopping across profiles22:52 – Portfolio potential + what's still missing27:22 – The V8 conversation: what MJ still owes creators29:50 – The editing limitations everyone wants fixed30:24 – Nano Banana Pro enters the chat31:57 – Google's naming chaos (again)32:53 – Nano Banana Pro's first real test: auto-summarizing video35:30 – Split-stacks, keyframes, micro-sequences41:34 – Refraction, distortion, and text-on-glass tricks45:35 – Micro-editing breakthrough examples48:33 – Best platforms for running Nano Banana Pro50:13 – Gemini Studio vs Weavy workflows52:13 – Multi-step layouts: text + objects + composition55:18 – Design briefs, ingestion, and real client examples57:57 – Why every team now needs a Nano Pro person01:01:02 – The “segment anything” Meta update + VFX workflow talk01:03:00 – Minority Report future of editing01:04:20 – Feeling behind while the internet shows off01:05:40 – Lighting setup extraction examples01:06:04 – Thanksgiving scheduling + next week's plan01:06:35 – The “full sprint” AI moment01:07:19 – Outro

Der Zoll-Deal, den Wirtschaftsminister Parmelin mit den USA zimmerte, steht in der Kritik: Kommen nun Chlorhühner und Cyber Trucks? Dürfen die USA die Steuerpolitik der Schweiz mitbestimmen? Und wie lange hält der «Frieden»? Eine Gruppe reicher Unternehmer bereitete im Oval Office mit teuren Geschenken für US-Präsident Trump den Boden – wenig später konnte Wirtschaftsminister Guy Parmelin einen Deal mit den USA verkünden. Die Strafzölle sollen von 39 Prozent auf 15 Prozent sinken. Wie genau liess der Bund die Unternehmer in die Verhandlungen Einblick nehmen? Und welchen Preis zahlt die Schweiz für die Einigung? Wie kann die Schweiz garantieren, dass Private tatsächlich 200 Milliarden Franken investieren und sich die Handelsbilanz ausgleicht? Bundesrat Guy Parmelin nimmt Stellung. Einige Experten bezweifeln zudem, dass mit den USA Ruhe einkehrt, sobald die Absichtserklärung in ein Abkommen umgemünzt ist. Hat sich die Schweiz mit ihrem Nachgeben erst recht erpressbar gemacht? Im Raum steht auch die Frage, was der Zollstreit mit den USA für die neuen Abkommen mit der EU bedeuten. Und ob sich ein Kleinstaat wie die Schweiz neu ausrichten muss, wenn reine Machtpolitik die Oberhand gewinnt. Wirtschaftsminister Guy Parmelin stellt sich den Fragen von Nathalie Christen in der Samstagsrundschau. Ergänzend zum Tagesgespräch finden Sie jeden Samstag in unserem Kanal die aktuelle Samstagsrundschau.

Most Americans have little understanding of the vast amount of private data harvested from their smartphones by third parties, said Joe Weil, a former Apple product manager and the founder of Unplugged.Where you go, who you associate with, what you like, is all easily discoverable, Weil said.“It's publicly available. It's purchasable.”What's even worse is that the Fourth Amendment does not protect this advertising data, he said. The U.S. government, for example, does not require a warrant to access it.Data brokers sell this data freely, and by applying just a few filters, anyone—foreign governments, intelligence services, criminal cartels—can easily triangulate it to surveil and target individual people or groups, Weil said.“We can't do [surveillance] in China. They can do it here, and it's a huge vulnerability. They can easily find the people they want to take off the board—it's mapped out from our phones,” he said.Weil worked for 10 years at Apple in product strategy before founding Unplugged, a tech company that has built a smartphone designed to block tracking, data harvesting, and behavioral profiling at the system level.​Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Snag Our Simplified Budget System!Budget besties, whew — grab your tissues and your coffee. In this powerful episode, we sit down with Mackenzie, a wife, mama of two, and full-time working powerhouse navigating a major life pivot after her husband lost his job. Spoiler: this conversation is about so much more than money.From a job loss to reworking their budget and leaning into a new side hustle, Mackenzie walks us through the real life stuff — the stress, the faith, and the tough decisions that so many of us face but don't always talk about.We dig into:

Send us fan responses! What if the “law” you feel crushed by is mostly contract—and you've been signing into it with your words, your paperwork, and your presence? We sit down with Don Kilam to pull apart the threads of child support, court process, and identity, and we follow the paper trail to where power really lives: status, trusts, and the private side of life.We start with a hard question: if there's no injured party, is it a crime—or is it commerce? From there, Don lays out how Title IV, Social Security, and public trust mechanisms shape how child support is enforced. He explains why public vs private isn't a slogan; it's a structural decision. Private families operate through trusts, foundations, and contracts they author. Public roles rely on statutes and policies designed for the general welfare. We explore making your name a business, using holding companies, and drafting operating agreements that function like constitutions for your entities.The conversation gets tactical. Affidavits, not emotions, move records. Unrebutted statements can become facts. Certified mail matters. Ask for delegation of authority. Keep everything as exhibits. We interrogate jurisdiction signals like flags and titles, discuss how labels can trap you into statuses you didn't intend, and walk through strategies that have led to case dismissals, reduced exposure, and better protection of income and assets. Don also shares why real wealth is time, health, and people—and why cash, silver, and trustees still matter when systems stall.If you've felt the system is a costume party you never meant to attend, this is your invitation to change clothes. Learn how to author your contracts, correct your status, and protect your family with practical tools and a clearer map of public vs private.

In this episode of Tank Talks, host Matt Cohen sits down with Chris Canavan, founder and general manager of Canavan Private Wealth, to unpack one of the most confusing and emotionally charged chapters in a founder's journey: life after the liquidity event.Chris brings thirty years of global institutional and private office experience to the table, but his superpower is not managing money. It is designing and running the system around a founder's wealth. After watching countless entrepreneurs exit their companies only to be overwhelmed by advisors, decisions, documents, and emotional pressure, Chris built a model that restores clarity, control, and purpose.He explains how founders lose sight of their instincts amid a fire hose of new advisors promising the world, why trust erodes so quickly after a deal closes, and how fragmented systems lead to panic, confusion, and poor decisions. Chris breaks down the architecture of a modern private office, why most founders rely on sticky notes and spreadsheets, and how his closed-loop operational model gives founders their time back.From early warning signs of wealth fragmentation, to the psychological crash founders face when purpose suddenly disappears, to his triage process for investment opportunities, Chris delivers a brutally honest guide to navigating life after the big exit.Whether you are preparing for a liquidity event or already living through the post-sale fog, this episode shows you what founders get wrong, what they must put in place, and how to build a system that supports your next chapter rather than suffocates it.Spotting the Gaps: Managing the System, Not the Money (03:38)* How advisory silos fail ultra-high net worth individuals* Why communication, not talent, is the biggest weakness in wealth management* The role of the generalist who understands every silo deeply enough to connect them* Why founders need someone three to seven feet deep across all disciplinesFinding the Right Clients and Building Trust-Based Relationships (07:06)* Why fit, values, and authenticity matter more than money* How Chris screens clients who actually want to be helped* Why some founders treat advisors like commodities and how that destroys outcomes* Building long-lasting relationships built on accountability and transparencyManaging Founder Emotions and Behaviors Post-Exit (09:00)* Founders are used to speed, scale, and instant execution* Why slowing down is the hardest adjustment* How Chris handles frustration, urgency, and emotional volatility* The importance of respect and boundaries when multiple advisors and egos collideEarly Warning Signs of Wealth Fragmentation (16:21)* When day-to-day tasks start consuming founder's mental bandwidth* The “black flies in cottage country” analogy* Why founders lose the ability to focus on what matters* The fire hose of advisors and opportunities after an exitHow Chris Evaluates Investment Opportunities for Clients (25:09)* Pain reliever vs. gain creator: the framework for evaluating pitches* Why relationships and trust matter more than projected returns* How Chris filters noise before presenting anything to a founder* The story-first, numbers-second diligence processThe Psychological Crash After a Big Exit (28:17)* Why life will never be the same after selling a company* How society begins to define founders by the name of their exit* The loneliness and loss of identity that shock new millionaires* Why every human needs a sense of purpose to avoid emotional collapseBecoming a Project Manager of Your Own Life (31:45)* Why successful entrepreneurs struggle when their team disappears* Trust-building, listening, and meeting founders where they areHow Chris transitions from advisor to integratorWhy trust cannot be demanded, only earned over timeAdvice for Founders Preparing for an Exit (36:48)* Why founders must build structure before signing final documents* The danger of early engagement with performance-focused advisors* Why founders need an unconflicted advisory boardHow to breathe, slow down, and avoid urgency-driven decisionsThe Future of Private Wealth for Canadian Founders (40:10)* Why founders will disrupt the private office industry* The coming shift from advice to execution* How operational efficiency will redefine wealth managemen* The democratization of systems once reserved for legacy familiesAbout Chris CanavanChris Canavan is the founder and General Manager of Canavan Private Wealth, a private office that provides institutional discipline and operational clarity to ultra-high-net-worth individuals.

In this episode, we're joined by Mamdouh Medhat, VP and Senior Researcher at Dimensional Fund Advisors, for an exceptionally deep, exceptionally nerdy exploration of factor investing—focusing on profitability, value, defensive equity, and the persistent misunderstandings that surround them. Mamdouh walks us through his retrospective paper (co-authored with Robert Novy-Marx) on the profitability premium, why profitability subsumes a wide range of quality metrics, and why it dramatically clarifies how we should think about defensive/low-volatility strategies. He also explains the role of profitability in value's US underperformance since 2007, why price-to-book remains a remarkably effective valuation metric, and how Dimensional incorporates these insights into portfolio construction. In the second half of the conversation, we shift to private markets. Mamdouh unpacks Dimensional's research on buyouts, venture capital, private credit, and private real estate—revealing what percentage of the global investable universe these funds actually represent, how to benchmark them properly, how much dispersion exists across managers, how fair-value accounting changed the game post-2007, and why many perceived diversification benefits are actually just return smoothing. Key Points From This Episode: (0:04) Intro to Mamdouh Medhat and why his research fits the Rational Reminder "nerdy happy place." (1:32) The story behind Mamdouh's retrospective paper with Robert Novy-Marx and the impact of the original profitability research on academia and practice. (5:36) Three things the paper examines: quality investing, defensive/low-risk strategies, and value—unified through profitability. (6:55) Why none of the 15 major academic and practitioner quality metrics add explanatory power beyond profitability. (8:18) How spanning tests show profitability explains quality, but quality does not explain profitability. (12:24) Quality measures largely load on profitability—they're noisier versions of the same thing. (13:14) The link between quality metrics and fundamental momentum, especially for QMJ and quarterly ROE. (15:18) Practical implications: profitability is a parsimonious, more efficient way to capture the "quality" dimension. (16:30) Defensive equity through the profitability lens—why high profitability predicts low volatility. (18:58) Why long-only low-volatility strategies produce zero five-factor alpha—and why a simple high-profitability/low-investment portfolio plus T-bills beats them. (22:14) Alternative value metrics (EBITDA/EV, intangible-adjusted book-to-market, etc.) don't outperform price-to-book when profitability is accounted for. (24:57) Many "improved" value metrics simply rotate in profitability exposure, not better value information. (26:17) Roughly half of US value's post-2007 underperformance is explained by its negative correlation with profitability. (28:42) Industry tilts (e.g., energy/financials vs. tech/healthcare) drive much of value's volatility—not its long-term return. (30:33) The theoretical case for combining clean valuation (price-to-book) with clean expected cash flow (profitability). (33:36) Academic implications: models must jointly explain value and profitability—and their negative correlation. (35:09) Practitioner implications: parsimony—use clear valuation and cash-flow measures, limit excessive complexity. (36:53) How Dimensional measures profitability: operating profitability (revenue – COGS – SG&A – interest) scaled by book equity. (41:09) Why tilting toward or away from countries based on aggregate characteristics rarely adds value—premiums come from stocks, not countries. (42:57) Industry-level tilts show similar patterns—industry momentum exists but is impractical due to massive turnover. (46:15) How Dimensional handles country and industry weights: sort within countries, then apply sector caps. (48:27) Private markets: private funds make up roughly 10% of the global investable universe—not 25–100% as sometimes claimed. (50:53) Benchmark choice for private funds is crucial—S&P 500 is not appropriate for buyouts or VCs. (52:00) Using KSPME (public-market equivalent), buyouts and VCs match small-cap value/growth benchmarks; private credit matches high yield; private real estate underperforms listed real estate. (55:50) Factor exposures post-2007 explain 70–80% of private-fund return variation due to fair-value accounting. (1:00:48) Wide dispersion in private-fund performance—top 5% double or triple capital; bottom 5% lose half. (1:03:49) Little evidence of manager persistence—manager selection must rely on due diligence, not past vintages. (1:08:24) No strong time trend in private-fund outperformance, but correlations with public markets have increased. (1:09:13) Many diversification benefits historically attributed to private assets were actually illiquidity-driven smoothing. (1:12:25) Rising demand and democratization likely reduce expected returns in private markets—exclusivity is fading.   Links From Today's Episode: Meet with PWL Capital: https://calendly.com/d/3vm-t2j-h3p Rational Reminder on iTunes — https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-rational-reminder-podcast/id1426530582.  Rational Reminder on Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/rationalreminder/ Rational Reminder on YouTube — https://www.youtube.com/channel/ Benjamin Felix — https://pwlcapital.com/our-team/ Benjamin on X — https://x.com/benjaminwfelix Benjamin on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/benjaminwfelix/ Cameron Passmore — https://pwlcapital.com/our-team/ Cameron on X — https://x.com/CameronPassmore Cameron on LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/cameronpassmore/ Editing and post-production work for this episode was provided by The Podcast Consultant (https://thepodcastconsultant.com)

Today I'm joined by Jim Keffer, CEO of Keffer Auto Group. We break down his radical 10-year buyout model, why he hunts “unicorn” operators instead of centralizing, and how underperforming rooftops become high-ROI assets. Jim also explains the math behind buying broken stores, the traits that separate true owner-operators, and the coming shakeups he sees from Carvana, CarMax, and digital retailing. It's a candid, transparent look at a model most dealers never get to see up close. This episode is brought to you by: 1. Lotlinx - What if ChatGPT actually spoke dealer?

The Bulletproof Dental Podcast Episode 415 HOSTS: Dr. Peter Boulden and Dr. Craig Spodak DESCRIPTION In this episode, Peter Boulden and Craig discuss the critical importance of succession planning for dentists, emphasizing that every dentist will eventually need to consider their exit strategy. They explore various pathways for transitioning out of practice, including selling outright, forming partnerships, or selling to private equity. The conversation highlights the significance of understanding practice value, the emotional aspects of selling, and common mistakes to avoid in the planning process. The hosts encourage proactive planning to maximize the value of a dental practice and ensure a smooth transition. TAKEAWAYS Succession planning is essential for all dentists. Timing is crucial in the succession planning process. The value of a practice is often tied to its goodwill and assets. Selling a practice without proper planning can lead to significant losses. Partnerships can provide a smoother transition and better value. Private equity can offer liquidity but comes with risks. Emotional states can cloud decision-making in practice transitions. Clear financial records are vital for successful transitions. Investing in practice growth can enhance future sale value. Planning for succession should start early in a dentist's career.
