Steven Pesavento is a real estate entrepreneur and managing partner of VonFinch Capital. Since 2016, he has completed over 220 real estate transactions, renovated nearly 100 properties, and personally transacted over $200 million in real estate. With a background in consulting and startups, Steven transitioned into multifamily investing to build long-term wealth, scale strategically, and help investors achieve financial freedom through high-performance investments.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Steven flipped over 200 houses before pivoting to multifamily for greater scalability and repeatability. The VonFinch model focuses on building trust at scale, creating long-term investor relationships across asset classes. Talent retention is core to their strategy, offering team members aligned incentives and upside in each project. The best multifamily buying opportunities are in the middle market ($5–$25M) where institutional competition is minimal. Successful investing starts with mindset—embracing both wins and losses as part of a long-term game.     Topics From Flipping to Multifamily Built a high-volume flipping business but struggled with lack of repeat clients and team turnover. Realized multifamily investing offered better scale, cash flow, and lasting investor relationships. Transitioned to commercial deals where trust and strategic partnerships drive long-term success. Building a Wealth Machine Through Relationships VonFinch Capital focuses on relationship-based investing with aligned goals across team, operators, and investors. Employees are offered base salaries with profit-sharing incentives to encourage ownership and retention. Long-term success is about creating win-win environments that scale with aligned interests. Navigating the Current Multifamily Market Market dislocation has created buying opportunities 30–40% below peak prices in the non-institutional middle market. VonFinch targets $5–$15M deals overlooked by large institutions but too big for most small investors. Patience and persistence matter—some of their best deals took 6–12 months to close or required years of relationship-building. Why Now Is Still the Time to Buy Even with personal portfolio challenges, Steven remains bullish on buying during market dips. Dollar-cost averaging into real estate is critical—especially for those who bought at the top in 2021–22. The greatest returns are made in volatile periods when others are fearful. Investor Mindset and Long-Term Thinking Investing is a game—understand the rules, play strategically, and adapt to change. Fear of loss often outweighs potential gains, but playing scared leads to missed opportunities. Steven encourages investors to view losses as feedback and avoid overexposure in any one deal or asset.    

  Firearms aren't just something people partake in as a hobby or piece of their lifestyle. They are an investment.

Send me any questions hereI sat down with Preston Johnson, entrepreneur, risk-taker, and founder of a non-emergency medical transport company launched during the chaos of COVID.What struck me most wasn't the business strategy. It was his brutal honesty about burnout, ego, and rebuilding from the inside out.Preston didn't start out trying to be a business owner. He was a content creator, like so many of us, navigating uncertainty, driven by ambition, but often spread too thin. When COVID hit, he pivoted fast, launching a company that demanded more than just hustle. It demanded everything.In this conversation, we unpack what happens when you go from doing the work… to carrying the weight of it. He talks about wearing every hat in the early days, hitting the wall with burnout, and realizing that if he didn't build better habits, nothing else would last.But this isn't just a story about business. It's about identity.Preston opened up about the gap between who he thought he was, and who he actually wanted to be. About how ego kept him from trying new things. About how real confidence came when his actions finally aligned with his core self.We also went deep on failure. Not the Instagram version. But the kind that punches you in the gut, leaves you questioning everything, and somehow becomes the thing that moves you forward.From taking micro-risks to developing emotional intelligence, Preston shares what it actually takes to grow—not just as an entrepreneur, but as a human.If you've ever felt like you're hustling hard but still stuck... this episode is your permission to pause, reassess, and rebuild, smarter, softer, and way more aligned.

April: Welcome to the Weinberg in the World Podcast where we bring stories of interdisciplinary thinking in today's complex world. My name is April and I'm your student host of this special episode of the podcast. I'm a second year student studying physics and integrated science, and I'm looking forward to learning more about our guest's career. Today, I'm excited to be speaking with Rachel Pike who graduated from Northwestern in 2006 and is now COO at Modern Treasury. Thank you, Rachel, for taking the time to speak with me today. Rachel: Nice to be here. Nice to meet you April. April: You too. To start us off today, I was wondering if you could tell us more about your time at Northwestern as an undergrad. What did you study? And how did you get to your current career path? Rachel: Oh, man, two different parts. The easy part is to say what I did at Northwestern, so I majored in chemistry, physical chemistry specifically. I had a minor in African studies through the center or program for African Studies. And I did my honors chemistry work with Franz Geiger, Professor Franz Geiger in the chemistry department. So that's sort of the what. My major extracurricular was Fusion Dance Company. That's where I spent a lot of my time. How I went from there to here is such a circuitous, crazy path. It is not direct. I left Northwestern and did a Gates scholarship, I did a PhD in chemistry at Cambridge. Loved it, but I was not meant to be a professor. You could ask John Pyle or Franz Geiger, both of whom advised me. It's just it takes a very certain wonderful mindset, but it's not me, to be a lifelong academic. So I left academics and got an amazing role in venture capital and got to learn all about startups from the investing side. Did that for just over four years. And in my last couple years, started getting really close to one of our companies and operating with them and ended up launching products for them and got the bug. Realized that that was a better calling, a better match for me, which we can talk more about what I mean by that. And moved into operating, so then I worked for a health tech healthcare software company and then I moved here into FinTech. So it sort of couldn't be more random, but also each step made sense only as one step. It's just as a sum, they lead you very far from where you were. Not normal in any sense, but in the end I just don't think anything is normal. All paths turn out to be good as you make these accumulation of small decisions. April: Yeah, okay. What are the most challenging and rewarding aspects of your current job then? Rachel: There's a lot. The hardest thing in a startup, there's so many things that are hard about startups, growing startups, but prioritization and focus is one of the hardest things. And you have to actually prioritize not doing things you want to do, which is very antithetical to what it's like to be a driven, hungry person and be in a company of 200 driven, hungry people. You want to do everything that you see that seems like a big opportunity and a challenge that we need to fix, but you can't. There just literally is not enough time in the day and there's opportunity cost to lack of focus. So I think the hardest thing is, the phrase I always use with my teams is you have to let that fire burn. You just have to pick things that you know are broken that you're not going to fix, that it's not the highest priority thing to fix or things you want to work on that you know we just can't go work on that thing right now, we have to work on this other thing. So it's very counterintuitive and I would say that's the hardest thing to learn when you enter startups, how to get through that kind of mindset. April: Yeah, prioritization is pretty hard when there's so many options. Rachel: Yeah. Yeah, when there's so many options and when you're hungry and you feel like a small startup is always up against big Goliaths, so there's a billion things you can do to go after companies that are bigger. So I would say that's the hardest in terms of not the content of what we do is the wrong word, but what Modern Treasury builds and how we bring it and sell it in the market and how we run the company. Letting fires burn and ruthless prioritization is the most unnatural part of working for a startup, I would say. On the interpersonal part, so not what we do, but how we do it, like in every stage of life and everywhere I've been, the hardest part of anything is getting really good at giving and receiving feedback. And that is a lifelong, you have to dedicate your life to it and using that to make decisions with people. April: Could you talk a little bit more about what your company does and what your role is? Rachel: Yeah, sure. So I'm chief operating officer of Modern Treasury. Modern Treasury is a payment operations software platform. So we help companies of all sizes, from other startups to huge big public companies, manage their money movement. And it sort of sounds like a back office thing, but really, we actually mostly get bought by product and engineering teams. And those product and engineering teams that are our customers want to do payment stuff. They want to build a digital wallet or embed payments in their application. Or we also serve non-tech companies, so you're buying a house and you need to pay the real estate agent or you're buying a house and you have to go through the title and escrow process on that home purchase. A lot of money moves around in those businesses. In fact, it's core to all of those products to move and manage and track money. So we build the software for that. Complex payment systems get built on top of us and complex payment products. We have an engineering database product called Ledgers, which is how you, with high performance and perfect fidelity, track balances, which is a really hard computer science problem, although it seems that it should be easy. It's a very hard computer science problem. And then you can imagine that as we grow and have more and more data and understanding, we're building more and more AI into our platform, so teams can run in a safe way with AI helping them. So anyway, yeah, it's a complicated thing that we do, but we help companies move and manage their money movement. April: Okay, cool. So how well did college prepare you for this career, do you think? Or what was the most important skill that you learned from college? Rachel: There's so many things that you learn in college as you sort of separate from home life and become your own person. I think there's soft skills and hard skills. I obviously don't use the traditional academic knowledge that I got in my undergrad and graduate experiences in chemistry, not a chemist anymore. But I don't think there's anything that can replace scientific training in how to think and pursue questions and how to separate how to go through a research process and understand and also understand the limits of your knowledge. That is a very profound experience the more advanced you get in science. I didn't even get that advanced. But in understanding the boundaries of what the community of scientists knows and what personally and how to ask questions, build a hypothesis, and go again. And I know that the hypothesis process is something you learn in like second grade or fourth grade or whatever, you go to school, but truly, that process is very hard, like holding yourself to a standard of making a rigorous, very thought out hypothesis and understanding what would prove or disprove that. In a scientific setting in a lab, sometimes it's a little easier to go through that process. Hey, if this experiment works, I'll see X. In a business environment, that's actually very hard. How do you measure? Is that metric actually counting that? What else is getting conflated into these signals and systems? And then almost everything, unless it's something like website clicks or latency or something that's directly measurable, almost all the signal that you get is mediated through people. So not only do you have to go through this process of trying to constantly get to truth, everything that you're trying to pursue is going through people. So I would say academically, that's the longest lasting impression for me. My team gets annoyed because I say things like rate-limiting step all the time, which is a chemistry phrase. So it taught me how to think. I think another very impactful part of my college, two other very impactful parts of my college experience, Fusion was just getting started, I was one of the people that helped get it started. And starting a club that is, very proud to say it's long-standing and I could never audition and get accepted today, is a lot like starting any organization. How do you run things? What is governance like? How do you navigate people? What are the expectations? How do you communicate that? How do you do things excellently? Starting and building a club is very similar to starting and building an organization, it's just we get a lot more complicated with time. So I learned a lot in that process and running rehearsals and putting on a show and what it's like to run an audition process. I have very fond memories of that. And lastly, I would say is I studied abroad for all of junior year. And I don't know if this is true, but someone along the way of me, because chemistry has so many sequential requirements, and it was very hard for me to figure out how to do those requirements and still be away for a year, someone along the way told me I was the only chemistry major who was ever away for a year then. It's probably not true now. I also don't know if that's true, speaking of rigorous hypotheses, so that's an aside. But the experience of being abroad, I was in Tanzania, was obviously profoundly eye-opening. And being in multiple cultural contexts, not just for travel, but for a long period of time with real life, day-to-day life, it just changed my whole perspective on the world. And then same thing, I lived abroad again for my PhD, so I was abroad on and off again for about like five out of six years. It really changed my perspective on the world, my perspective on people, and I only got that opportunity because of college. April: Yeah, college is a great time to study abroad and do those things. Rachel: Yeah. Yeah. April: [inaudible 00:09:31] possibilities, yeah. Also, it's so interesting to hear that you found Fusion or helped found it because it's such a big thing on campus now. Rachel: It's such a huge thing now. April: [inaudible 00:09:39]. Rachel: Yeah, no. We really grew it, but it was small when we started. We were just in parades and doing small shows, and then we finally started putting shows on in Tech my last two years there. It was very fun, really meaningful experience. April: That's great. Yeah. Rachel: Yeah. April: Then you kind of touched a little bit on this, but could you elaborate more on the biggest adjustment you had to make going from undergrad to industry? Rachel: I actually got this piece of advice when I went from my PhD to venture. I went and had coffee. One of the coolest things about Silicon Valley and the technology community is that it's very open and if you ask people for advice, they're really open to giving it and having conversations like this, but times 10. So one of the coffees I had was with someone who had also had a PhD and moved into venture. And he said something to me that has always stuck with me, which is the biggest adjustment you're going to have to make is the complete lack of rigor in business decisions, which is hysterical, and I don't think fully true, which I'll explain, but it is true, the standards of rigor in academic science are completely different than the standards of rigor in making a business decision. So I always think about that moment of you got to get used to the fact that they make decisions with less information. I think that's only partially true. I think one of the reasons is true is what we talked about, that data is often mediated through people, and so it doesn't feel as rigorous. But actually, the decisions you're making about and with people are just as important. It's just different, and that is a very big adjustment. There is not always right. It's not a test or a thesis or whatever, and that's a big change. There's just making a decision and then owning the consequences of the decision and upside of the decision. But that, it's a huge change. So that's what I would say one of the biggest adjustments that I had to make. On a more practical basis, specifically like Silicon Valley and startups, they're just opportunities, they are roles, sorry, environments with very little management structure. That's the whole point, you're doing something from scratch. There's not someone telling you what to do. That's not true if you go into industry and go to a very big technology company or a bunch of industries I've never been in that are managed in totally different ways. That obviously is like two hops from undergrad. I had a PhD and then I had time in investing. But yeah, working without a lot of oversight, also a big change. April: [inaudible 00:11:58]. The training you get from undergrad to grad school and then going to industry, it's a bit of an adjustment, but yeah. Rachel: Yeah. April: It's an interesting problem, how you would apply your scientific training to the business world. Rachel: Yeah. What do we know and what do we not know, is a question I often try and ask myself. In fact, I was thinking about it late last night about something we're trying to figure out in our business. And it's hard because you sometimes feel like you know things that you don't. It's a trick of the brain. April: Then sort of related, but what are some current trends that you're seeing in the industry or in the area that you work or some of the modern day challenges? Rachel: I would be remiss if I didn't say the most enormous trend in technology right now is AI. So there's sort of no other answer you can give them that, this unbelievable explosion in technical capability and then it's application into all kinds of industries. So I don't know, Modern Treasury has been such an interesting ride. One of the things that is interesting about startups is you really cannot predict the world around you. So this tiny company, we're not tiny anymore, but this company that was tiny, I was the first employee, it was just the four of us, just us chickens in a co-working space, trying to build this payment operations company. And in the interim, COVID happened and we could never work together again until many years later. And then Silicon Valley Bank crashed and there were multiple bank failures all over the country. If that had happened two years earlier, it would've taken our business down. As it happened, it accelerated our business like, oh my god, better lucky than good. Now we're going through an AI transformation. Crypto has gone up and down three times in those six and a half years. It's just wild what happens around you and how that affects the work you do day to day. So I don't know. One thing I would say is things are unpredictable. I have never learned that more than in this particular job I'm in now. April: For sure. Would you say that kind of unpredictability is characteristic of working at a startup versus a larger company or even in academia, for example? Rachel: It's a good question. I'm not sure I'm the right person to answer because I've never worked in a huge company. I've always worked in... Investing is also in the business of startups, so I don't think I'm the right person to answer. I think I have a hypothesis that it affects you less. If you're in a big established company where things don't go, the amplitude of the curve isn't quite the same level, I don't think you necessarily feel it as much. AI is happening to everyone no matter where you work, right? I assume you're all using it every day in your undergraduate environment. So that's universal. I think how it affects your job or what you're using it for is probably different. If you're a computer science undergrad, it's really affecting what your experience is like compared to five years ago. If you're a physical chemistry undergrad like I was, doing some frequency generations two floors below in the basement of Tech, I'm sure it's helping on the research side, but nothing changes the lasers but hands yet, until the AI robots come. So I just think it depends how much the volatility affects your certain area of pursuit. April: That makes sense, yeah. So with all this volatility, how do you approach work-life balance? Rachel: I don't think there is any, in all honesty. My mornings are totally insane between the 27 things I'm trying to do, and I'm always later than I want to be to my first meeting, and that just is what it is. I actually have a four-page document called Working with Rachel and for people to get to know what it's like to work with me when I hire and bring on new teams or new managers, et cetera. And one of the things that's in here is my mornings are insane and I'm always late and I'm totally frazzled and whatever, but I can almost always talk in the afternoons and nights almost any day. You just have to know your rhythm. Exercise is a huge part of my management of work-life balance. So probably started before Fusion, but definitely long, hard dance practices helped me get through undergrad. And at every phase of life I've sort of had a different exercise, deep exercise pursuit and crutch, I would say, to get through the craziness of life. So that's really important for me personally to focus and, I don't know, just get to a different level than the overly intellectual all the time, brainwave level into the body and into the breath. So that's huge. And then more tactically, I'm terrible about always having my phone around, but I do always have my laptop on do not disturb. So when I'm working in my environment, Slack and email are going constantly nonstop, especially Slack. So if I actually want to write or actually want to read or actually want to listen, the pings don't help. But to do my job, I need to be ever present with my teams. So just practically, it's always on do not disturb, and then I pick when I check. So I don't know, that goes from small to big of how I manage and cope with work-life balance, but it's the truth. April: There's some pretty good tips though. Sympathize. Rachel: Do people in Northwestern use Slack? Is that part of an undergrad life or no? April: Some of the clubs use it. I have a couple- Rachel: More texting? April: Yeah, they use GroupMe. Yeah. And then I know a lot of the research labs use Slack. Rachel: Oh, that makes sense. April: Yeah. Rachel: Yeah. But less of the all in every day, all encompassing, et cetera. April: Yeah. Rachel: Yeah. April: Do you think those work-life balance habits were developed during your graduate school years or in college or as you go into industry? Rachel: I don't know about do not disturb because technology has, not technology, but the physical hardware of communication has advanced so much. I'm so old compared to you guys. And when I was an undergrad, Facebook came out when I was a sophomore. So just think about how different of a world it was then. We had really kludgy Hermes email, Hermes email server at Northwestern. So the never ending notification encroach on our life, it existed then. And of course, we texted, but we texted T9. So it's just a different world. So we had it and obviously we all needed to learn how to focus, but not to the extent that it is a challenge for people in college and PhD programs now, I don't think. That's my guess as an outsider. But some things, like exercise, 100%. I think those things get developed earlier on. But once you're in university, it's your decision to continue to pursue them and how much you pursue them and how much they're a part of the rhythm of your life. So that, I would say for sure, I established for myself at Northwestern. April: Was there anything at Northwestern that you wish you had participated in that you didn't? Or the other way around, that you did but you wish you had opted out? Rachel: I wish I'd done dance marathon earlier. I only did it senior year and it was like what an incredible experience. Once you had the experience, then you realize, oh, I should have been doing this the whole time because it's like, I don't know, it's just something you could only do in an all encompassing environment like that. My major regret at Northwestern is actually academic, which is a silly small choice, but I studied French in elementary and high school and I really wanted to learn Spanish as a California person. So I took it in college, but that ate up a lot of quarters of getting my language credit because I was going from scratch. So my regret, and I'm not very good at languages anyway, so it's not like it stuck around, my regret is actually not that I took it, it came from good intentions, but that I used up six possibilities of taking classes in non-chemistry, non-African studies. Just you're spoiled for opportunity in undergrad of going to learn about everything. And it's one of the amazing parts about Northwestern and the way they do the core curriculum, that everyone has to learn a little bit of everything somehow. And that's my biggest regret. I regret not taking a philosophy class or a whatever. I took one world religion class, but should I have taken two. That breadth is the thing that I crave and miss. And by the time you get to PhD, and certainly in the British education system, you specialize earlier, so that opportunity's gone. You can obviously go to lectures and stuff, which I did, but it's not the same as being in a class. So yeah, my biggest I wish I had is I wish I hadn't taken Spanish in that environment and done it some other way and had six quarters to go just do dealer's choice of interesting things in departments I never would've gotten to know. April: Did you have the Weinberg language requirement? Rachel: Yes. April: But you got out of it with French? Rachel: I could have taken I think only one quarter or no, I can't remember how my testing was, sorry. But I could have taken either one quarter or zero quarters of French. But I instead put myself from scratch with Spanish because I've never taken it before. So I don't know, I just think that was good intentions, wrong decision. April: It happens. Rachel: Anyway, yeah, that's my biggest, I don't know, regret is too strong a word, but if I had a magic wand and could do it all over again, I would've taken more general humanities or other types of classes. April: Speaking of classes, what were some of your favorite classes at Northwestern? If you were to- Rachel: Oh my God, do I even remember? April: Yeah. Rachel: The physical chemistry. I don't remember if it's physical chemistry honors class or physical chemistry practicum. It's the last thing you take senior year with real world lab problems. And that class, there were six of us and we were in lab, I don't know, four or five hours twice a week. We were there all the time. It was so hard and so intellectually stimulating. I remember that class extremely well. I remember my world religions class. I don't remember who taught it, but it was the only time I ever studied anything like that. That was interesting. And I remember some of the seminar debates I had with other people. I don't know, those are the two that come to mind. April: Very cool. Now that we're getting towards the end of our time, the last question is if you were to look back on your undergrad, which I suppose we already did a little bit, but what advice would you give, I suppose, other people in your position? Rachel: I have one very specific piece of advice that I give to a lot of undergrads or people early in career, which I can share. And then the other is one that I give all the time now, but I don't know if it's relevant, but I'll share that one too. I'll start with the second one first because it might be less relevant. The one I give now, that is also can be very counterintuitive to people who are working on giving and getting feedback and what it takes to truly manage and motivate teens, is that clarity is more compassionate than kindness. And I don't mean don't be kind because the goal is, of course, to deliver clarity with extreme compassion and care. But it's nerve wracking to tell someone, "You're not meeting expectations for this role," or, "We did not hit our goal as a company and we have to make this really hard decision," or whatever the hard thing is that you have to say. It's harder to say it clearer than to say, "Well, I know you this and what about that, and I'm so sorry and this is hard, blah, blah, blah. But I think maybe the role," and then the person walks away and is like, "I don't know what I heard," and they don't know that they're not meeting expectations. So I would say that took me, it's a lifelong pursuit, I don't think I'm perfect at it yet. No one anywhere in my academic career, undergrad or grad, really taught me that. So that's one. I'm not sure if that's relevant for a sophomore undergrad, but maybe. April: I think so. Rachel: Could be. The advice that I often give to undergrads or very early in career folks, who are either looking for startups or end up whatever. I actually have a call with one this afternoon who's a woman who's a family friend who's thinking about a job change and she's like just wants my advice. I think that one of the unrealistic things that somehow culturally gets imbued in very driven and successful students, like all of the people who get accepted to Northwestern, is that you can have it all in your first job. And that is fucking bullshit. And I think it leads to a huge amount of heartache and angst because it's not true. Now, what you can have is one or two awesome things. So when you're, like you graduated at 21 or 22 or whatever age you are, you have usually no strings attached. You can make incredible broad decisions that you can't make later on and that affords you the opportunity to go do amazing things. But what you can't do is do it all at once in that one first job. So the specific example that I often give is you could pick where you work or what industry you work in or that you make a lot of money, but it is basically impossible to pick all of those things. So if you're a econ undergrad at Northwestern, of which there are many, it's probably pretty hard to work in a mission-driven company, make a 300,000 a year banker undergrad job, and move abroad for that first job as an American, blah, blah. That doesn't exist. If you want to make a lot of money, there are incredible programs with established firms where they really reward you for hard work really early on and that's the trade that that job encompasses. And if that's valuable to you, awesome. But you're probably going to be in one of their major locations and they're unlikely to ship you to Sydney for being 22. If you have the opportunity to go do something extremely mission driven that speaks to you, that's amazing, go do that. But you're probably not necessarily going to pick where or you're not going to be highly compensated. So I often talk to people who are in their early 20s who are like, "But I really want to be in New York, but I really want to work, I want to be in the arts and I want to do this, but I need a lot of money to support this thing." You're like, "You can't have it all." And that's not bad, it's just true. And it's much more compassionate for me to tell you, April, if you want to pursue physics, that's awesome. I was a PhD student. You're not going to make any money in your 20s. April: That's true. Rachel: But you might work at the cutting edge of science in something incredible that super motivates you. That's awesome. So if I could wave a magic wand for undergrads, I would get rid of that angst of that decision making. And the decision can have angst because it can be hard to choose a path, but the you can have it all, I think is a great lie. That's not fair to people in their late teens and early 20s in undergrad. I thought of another one, so I'm going to give you a third, even though you didn't solicit another one. Which is you at the beginning of this you asked about my career, which is kind of all over the place from a traditional perspective. I was in academics and then I went to investing, and then I went to startups. And then in startups, I was in healthcare and I went into payments in FinTech. It's all over the place. Every time I made the jump, everyone around me told me I shouldn't because I was leaving their path. And to be an amazing professor, you stay in academics. So people leaving academics is like, they don't want to give you the advice to do that. Or when you're in investing, the way you stay in it, and particularly in private investing, it's long feedback cycles. You got to stay and practice the craft. So I said, "Hey, I'm an operator at heart. I'm going to go do this thing." Some people encouraged me, but many people said, "Why would you ever do that? Why would you ever leave the job you have? Stay in practice." And then same when I left healthcare and picked a totally new thing. So that's more mid-career advice, which is like it's okay to leave that perfect tracked path and trust your gut. April: Yeah, that's actually really valuable advice, so thank you. Rachel: I hope so. April: Yeah. Thanks for taking the time out of your day to talk with me and to give all this advice to whoever's listening. Rachel: Yeah. It's awesome. Nice to meet you, April. April: Mm-hmm. And thank you for listening to this episode of the Weinberg in the World Podcast. We hope you have a great day and go Cats.

Paul Shannon is a real estate investor, fund manager, and co-host of the PassivePockets podcast. After spending 15 years in medical device sales, Paul transitioned into full-time real estate in 2019. He has acquired over 200 residential units through creative strategies like BRRRR and joint ventures and is an LP in 40+ deals across multifamily, industrial, debt funds, and more. Today, he runs Invest Wise Collective, an opportunistic investment fund focused on delivering diversified returns through both GP and LP positions.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Must Ask, here. Key Takeaways Paul left a successful sales career to pursue real estate full-time after realizing he wanted more purpose, freedom, and control. He failed as a property manager early on but used that lesson to scale through partnerships and better team delegation. Invest Wise Collective takes a capital-agnostic, asset-agnostic approach to investing—balancing risk, return, and diversification. Passive investors should focus on sponsor alignment, risk tolerance, and consistent underwriting inputs over flashy return metrics. Community and mentorship are essential for new and seasoned LPs alike—there's power in learning from others' experiences.     Topics From Medical Sales to Real Estate Freedom Paul started with single-family rentals and flips, managing properties himself while still in corporate sales. In 2019, he left his W2 job with a modest portfolio, savings runway, and a desire to build something meaningful. A pivotal moment came when he outsourced property management and focused on acquisitions, unlocking rapid growth. The Rise of Invest Wise Collective In 2023, Paul and partners launched a fund to pool capital and invest across asset classes. The fund focuses on both GP and LP positions, enabling flexible capital deployment based on risk-reward profiles. Their early strategy emphasized debt positions for income and capital preservation, later pivoting to multifamily as opportunities emerged. Lessons for New Passive Investors Focus on the sponsor first, then the deal—good operators can rescue average deals; bad ones can ruin great ones. Underwriting inputs matter more than IRR projections—don't get seduced by high returns without understanding the assumptions. Diversify across operators, asset types, and loan maturities to mitigate risks like market timing or interest rate exposure. Don't let FOMO drive decisions—there will always be more deals. Be intentional, not reactive. The Power of Community: Passive Pockets Paul is co-host of Passive Pockets, formerly Left Field Investors, now owned by BiggerPockets. The platform provides deal reviews, sponsor evaluations, educational content, and LP peer collaboration. It helps investors go from 100-level beginners to 500-level LPs through shared experience and due diligence transparency.

Kadir G discussed his trading journey, highlighting the importance of consistency and risk management. He shared that his brother Hamza excels at holding positions, while he focuses on trade management and chart patterns. They both trade gold charts and emphasize the significance of understanding market conditions. Kadir advised new traders to focus on the process rather than monetary gains and to journal trades for better understanding. He also stressed the importance of adjusting strategies based on market cycles and maintaining focus during trading sessions to avoid distractions. Kadir and Hamza have a combined track record of over $15 million in payouts. Podcast Interview Interview Link Website - FundedBrothers.comDiscord (incl. 2x Free Indicators mentioned) - DiscordYouTube - @FundedBrothersInstagram - @kadir.xauX - @kadir_xau Kadir's Trading Strategy Key Lessons [08:45] Ask yourself each and every time when you're in a trade, are you fine with the outcome? [10:36] Don't focus on the monetary side. Focus on actually being a good trader, what would a professional do, then the money will follow anyways. [11:40] Most of the times, it's the boring things that makes you better in trading. [12:44] If you are not aware that market cycles are changing, because they will always change… one minute candle, 300 points. That's a daily candle sometimes. [15:25] As a professional, if you have an A++ setup, that's when you size up. But apart from that, you keep your risk steady. [15:41] Every trade has the probability of having a loss, even if you have a 90% win rate. [17:18] Market right now is in a range… let's adjust to one to one, because we saw that the one to one always hit. [24:39] Do the boring stuff, and you will see a major change in your trading. No one wants to do it, but it has to be done every single day. [25:27] Data always equals confidence. If you want to be confident in the market, you can only be confident through experience and data.

The best podcast for military veterans, police officers, firefighters, and first responders preparing for veteran transition and life after service. Helping you plan and implement strategies to prepare for your transition into civilian life. In this episode, former Army Soldier Travis Lane shares a candid and compelling look at his journey—from struggling young adult to military veteran, and ultimately to business leader and advocate for veteran transition success. Raised in a hardworking blue-collar family in Norwich, Connecticut, Travis grew up chasing basketball dreams and navigating early adulthood without much direction or mentorship. After years of bouncing between seasonal jobs and short-term wins, he sought structure and enlisted in the Army at age 30—later than most, but ready for change. Basic training at Fort Benning and life as a Cavalry Scout gave Travis more than military skills. It gave him perspective. He thrived as a leader but saw through the institution's limits. He realized quickly that a military career wouldn't provide the autonomy, wealth-building potential, or long-term control he wanted. So, he chose not to reenlist. Post-service, Travis made bold, strategic moves—leveraging his benefits, earning an MBA, and founding The Nucleus Company, a veteran-led organization that empowers military veterans to define and design their futures. His mission is clear: help others make informed decisions about education, finances, and careers beyond the uniform. Travis's story is a blueprint for life after service—equal parts grit, growth, and guidance. For any veteran considering a career change, for any service member wondering what comes next, this conversation is a must-listen.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:IG: WEBSITE: LinkedIn: SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:CONNECT WITH TRAVIS LANESPONSORS:Brothers & Arms USAGet 20% off your purchaseLink: https://brothersandarms.comPromo Code: Transition20Trident CoffeeGet 15% off your purchaseLink: https://tridentcoffee.comPromo Code: TDP15Human Performance TRTGet 30% off your purchaseWeb: https://hptrt.com/Promo Code: TDP

Dr. Jason Williams is the founder and CEO of Ironclad Underwriting, where he helps investors simplify and strengthen multifamily deal analysis. With a background as a PhD-level chemical engineer, Jason brings a systems-based approach to underwriting, having transitioned from single-family rentals to large-scale multifamily syndications. He now teaches investors how to build smarter models, avoid costly assumptions, and raise their underwriting IQ.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Jason transitioned from engineering to real estate, bringing over 15 years of data analysis experience into underwriting. Many investors make critical underwriting mistakes by misunderstanding Excel models or relying too heavily on templates without verification. His Ironclad Underwriting model is built for flexibility and clarity, especially helpful when dealing with creative financing. He emphasizes third-party validation for all assumptions—especially from stakeholders who will be executing the plan. Property management can make or break a deal. Vet thoroughly and don't underestimate their impact.     Topics From PhD to Real Estate Pro Jason started investing in 2003 while in grad school and held rentals throughout his career. In 2017, he discovered syndications through Joe Fairless and began scaling into larger multifamily deals. After being laid off, he used the opportunity to go full-time into real estate. Underwriting with Precision Took his R&D background to build underwriting models that minimize user error and reduce complexity. Developed Ironclad Underwriting to “dumb down” deal data without compromising accuracy. Emphasizes that many common models can be broken easily—triple dipping rent bumps, broken formulas, or overwritten cells. Common Mistakes Investors Make Trusting broker/owner numbers without verification. Over-projecting rent growth based on temporary trends. Blindly following a coach or a guru's assumptions without understanding the logic. Using inherited underwriting models that have dead or disconnected cells. How to Use an Underwriting Model the Right Way Breaks rent data into: current, property management estimate, and pro forma rent. Encourages using third-party consultants for accurate insurance, taxes, and property management costs. Property managers must be part of the business plan validation process. Navigating the Market Cycle Expects a wave of opportunities as more owners face distress or pre-foreclosure. Believes creative financing will play a larger role—models must be able to handle these deal structures. Warns that relying on outdated assumptions or models not built for flexibility can lead to catastrophic results.

Episode 167 Chapter 27, Computer Music (1971–2014). Works Recommended from my book, Electronic and Experimental Music  Welcome to the Archive of Electronic Music. This is Thom Holmes. This podcast is produced as a companion to my book, Electronic and Experimental Music, published by Routledge. Each of these episodes corresponds to a chapter in the text and an associated list of recommended works, also called Listen in the text. They provide listening examples of vintage electronic works featured in the text. The works themselves can be enjoyed without the book and I hope that they stand as a chronological survey of important works in the history of electronic music. Be sure to tune-in to other episodes of the podcast where we explore a wide range of electronic music in many styles and genres, all drawn from my archive of vintage recordings. There is a complete playlist for this episode on the website for the podcast.

Welcome to Wrestling Tonight, where we bring clarity, context, and deeper perspective to the stories shaping the wrestling world. In Episode 118, we preview AEW Dynasty 2025 — a card filled with major title defenses, personal rivalries, and defining moments across the AEW roster. We break down the World Title main event between Jon Moxley and Swerve Strickland, a match built on tension, psychological warfare, and AEW's evolving identity. “Timeless” Toni Storm defends against Megan Bayne in a clash of showmanship and strength, while Kenny Omega puts his International Title on the line in a high-speed Triple Threat with Ricochet and “Speedball” Mike Bailey. We also look at Daniel Garcia vs. Adam Cole in a decisive TNT Championship match, a high-stakes ROH bout between Chris Jericho and Bandido, and the return of Rated FTR as they chase the Trios Titles. From there, we turn to WWE, where CM Punk is officially set to headline WrestleMania 41 in a Triple Threat with Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins. We trace the build, its connection to Shield history, and the implications of Punk finally reaching the main event stage — years after walking away. Also this week: The “Ric Flair Act” is introduced in the North Carolina Senate, proposing a feasibility study for a professional wrestling Hall of Fame museum honoring the state's rich wrestling heritage. AEW Dynamite is set to air its 289th episode on April 16 at Spring BreakThru — officially surpassing WCW Monday Nitro's run on Turner networks. Ethan Page returns to TNA, entering the Rebellion main event alongside Joe Hendry and Frankie Kazarian for the World Title. WWE announces the return of Evolution, its all-women's premium live event, and inducts Bret Hart vs. Steve Austin from WrestleMania 13 into the WWE Hall of Fame as a “Legacy Match.” Kevin Knight signs with AEW, five entrants are revealed for the 2025 Owen Hart Cup, and GCW's Spring Break 9 includes a chaotic Senior Scramble that captures the indie spirit. From AEW and WWE to GCW and TNA, this week's stories are about legacy, evolution, and the moments that connect past, present, and future.
