Owner Financing & Note Investing Podcast with Dawn Rickabaugh
My dear Robin in Texas, who has been a loyal and generous follower for years, comes on to talk in depth about her struggles to deal with bad tenants, rehab following eviction, and a potential exit using seller financing to sell the mobile on land to someone who needs a home. This is great for helping real estate and note investors think through the various options, get their head on straight, and choose what options are best... going in with eyes wide open. It's not fun to get blindsided down the road because you went into owner financing only having half-baked understanding of the short and long term considerations. http://linktr.ee/DawnRickabaugh

So we're all going to have our say on giving our politicians a four year term - or are we? The announcement from Goldsmith today was all over the place - David Seymour is largely to blame for that. He'll be on the show soon, so we'll ask him to explain then. But in principle, do I support a four-year term? Yes. Why? Because politics is too short-sighted. They spend one year getting in. One year doing work. Then another year getting elected again. The bigger problem, though, is strategy and pay-off. Strategizing with a 3-year window means short-sighted ambitions. It means we don't invest in as many big roading and rail projects as they should. It means we don't bother with fixing productivity. Stuff gets put in the too-hard basket because there's no pay off before the next election. And that's the prize these guys are working towards. Part of the reason China is a superpower today - only 50 odd years after opening up to the world - is because it has centralised power. It's a dictatorship. It has a very clear direction and very clear strategy. And no pesky elections to worry about. Now obviously we don't want to go full autocracy here - but a little more time for a party in power would, I think, do more good than harm. I also reckon we should give local Government four years too. For much the same reasons. But I also think we should combine voting in local and national politics, so you vote for your mayor and your Government on the same day, in the same polling booth. Two fifths of bugger all people actually bother voting in local elections - which is part of the reason local councils are run by such weirdos who can't seem to balance budgets. So, one polling day for everything, once every four years. Tick, tick, tick, tick. Done, easy. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

**Enter the ACA Field with Ease** Joanna shares insights on how accessible the Affordable Care Act (ACA) field is, thanks to federal certifications and free certifications through state-based exchanges. She encourages agents to be transparent about their commission structures and discuss any commission deductions upfront. Often, agents find themselves in the ACA realm quite by chance, especially when working with older clients, offering them a pathway to earn while building a Medicare book. **Maximizing HealthSherpa's Efficiency** The episode highlights HealthSherpa as an essential tool that simplifies the ACA application process. For agents, the platform offers automated processes, allowing clients to fill in their details via personal URLs. Its ability to handle out-of-state sales wherein licensed agents can receive referral fees adds another layer of convenience. **Financial Potential and Client Flexibility** Joanna discusses the substantial financial opportunities within the ACA, noting that initial compensation and renewals vary by state and carrier but usually provide a consistent income. Unlike Medicare, ACA sales often involve families, meaning one sale can cover multiple individuals. The ACA marketplace also provides clients with flexibility, as they prioritize budget over specific doctors, facilitating easier plan selection. **Appreciation and Referral Dynamics** One key takeaway from the podcast is the emphasis on showing appreciation for referrals. Joanna shares her personal experience of a lack of gratitude from a contact in California, stressing the importance of simple gestures like a thank you card. Building an ACA business involves engaging with people, understanding enrollment details, and recognizing special enrollment periods available year-round based on income levels. **Strategizing with ACA and Medicare** Joanna advises that an optimal business strategy includes incorporating ACA options while discussing Medicare, as many might become eligible before they turn 65.

Into the dragon's lair of child trafficking with a true Tennessee fighting volunteer. A case study in local corruption. Media influencers drop any topic if it doesn't pay. Not many will get to play the truth game. It's perks for me but not for thee. Looking back on the Franklin Scandal. It began in June 1988 and peaked by March 1990. Larry King was at the center of it all. Boystown Inc. was not forthcoming with any details. A how-to clinic on investigative research. It started with child trafficking in Nebraska. The FBI has buried these crimes for decades. Protecting the guilty by treating victims like perps, and pressuring them to change their story. July 11th, 1990 was the deadly crash. Sabotage was suspected in Gary Caradori's death and the investigation stopped. Perjury accusations were used as a weapon. Some people will always refuse to see truth. Barbaric things get done supposedly for good reasons. Pray for strength every day while knowing the only thing standing up is the truth. Not seeing the reality of our situation is a true handicap. Use tolerance and understanding with those who are blind to what surrounds us.

Patrick and Mary will soon both be retired. They are curious about what their withdrawal strategy should be as they balance various retirement accounts, including a pension, IRAs, and a brokerage account. They've been using tax gain harvesting to minimize taxes and plan to eliminate gains by 2024. A key question is whether to withdraw from their IRAs or brokerage account first, considering their state's tax exclusion. James explains that by managing withdrawals and Roth conversions strategically, some retirees can reduce tax liability, optimize income streams, and preserve the tax-free growth of Roth accounts during retirement.Questions answered:Should retirees withdraw from their taxable brokerage accounts or IRAs first to minimize taxes?How can Roth conversions and state tax exclusions be used to optimize income and lower taxes during retirement?Submit your request to join James: On the Ready For Retirement podcast: Apply HereOn a Retirement Makeover episode: Apply Here Timestamps:0:00 - Meet Patrick and Mary3:14 - Retirement taxes are different6:37 - Consider combined tax rates8:42 - Tax gain harvesting12:35 - Strategizing income in retirement16:48 - Realized gains20:12 - A twist on traditional thinking23:47 - The bottom lineCreate Your Custom Strategy ⬇️ Get Started Here.

Real Estate Investing With Jay Conner, The Private Money Authority
Transitioning from a stable career to entrepreneurship often comes with its challenges. Brandon Cobb, who was once a medical device sales representative, experienced a significant career setback that propelled him into the world of real estate investing. Today, he manages a $22 million portfolio focused on affordable housing and has raised over $15 million in private money. In this episode of Raising Privat Money Podcast, Brandon Cobb shares his inspirational journey, strategies for success, and lessons learned along the way.From Medical Sales to Real EstateBrandon Cobb's transition into real estate was far from smooth sailing. After being unexpectedly fired from his job in medical device sales, Cobb faced a series of failed online business ventures. However, he found his footing in real estate investing, initially focusing on fixes and flips. Drawing from a diverse set of experiences, Cobb pivoted into new construction, identifying a lucrative niche by addressing the affordable housing crisis.Mastering the Art of Raising Private MoneyOne of the key elements behind Cobb's success has been his ability to raise private money. Instead of directly soliciting funds for deals—a strategy that can often appear desperate—Cobb recommends engaging potential investors by seeking their feedback and gauging their interest. Both Cobb and host Jay Conner emphasize the importance of appearing confident rather than desperate when raising private money. Cobb's innovative approach involved negotiating with investors for fixed and flip projects at a 10% annual interest rate with no monthly payments. This method alleviated the financial burden of hard money loans, characterized by high upfront fees and interest rates, thereby allowing for more sustainable growth.Syndication: A Path to Scalable GrowthTransitioning from debt positions to equity through syndication was a pivotal strategy for Cobb. Syndication, likened to crowdfunding, involves multiple investors pooling their resources to fund larger projects. This not only increases the available capital but also allows investors to become partners in deals, thus sharing higher returns. Through this method, Cobb expanded his funds from $6 million to $15 million, opening up opportunities for larger-scale projects.Strategizing for Success in Real EstateCobb's company, HBG Capital, specializes in entry-level housing in Nashville, Tennessee, a market with high demand for affordable homes. They have developed a multi-faceted approach that includes owning land outright with investors, contracting with national home builders, and building homes both to sell and to rent. This variety of exit strategies ensures stability and profitability, even in fluctuating markets.Personal Insights and LifestyleBeyond the numbers and strategies, Cobb also shares personal insights into his journey. Real estate investing has afforded him the ability to travel frequently, taking six weeks off per year to explore new places. Particularly meaningful are his annual trips with his mother and a sibling trip to historic locations with his retired history teacher sister. These experiences underscore the personal fulfillment that can accompany financial success.Learning from Mistakes and Moving ForwardCobb's journey from flipping houses to new construction highlights the importance of learning from mistakes and adapting strategies accordingly. Tracking key performance indicators helped him recognize the saturation in the fix and flip market, prompting a shift to new construction which offered higher profits with less competition.Both Cobb and Conner agree on the significance of continuous learning and adaptation in the evolving landscape of real estate investing. Leveraging private money and shifting from a hard money-dependent model has been crucial for Cobb's business scalability.
Dominance in politics matters, clearly, but how do we have strong leadership without authoritarianism? In this episode Rick speaks with political scientist Steven Fish, discussing his new book, "Comeback: Routing Trumpism, Reclaiming the Nation, and Restoring Democracy's Edge." They dive into the dynamics of political dominance, the importance of strong leadership, and the failures of current Democratic messaging. Fish argues that Democrats need to reclaim patriotic symbols and adopt a more assertive and emotional approach to connect with voters. The conversation covers the need to highlight achievements confidently and ridicule opponents effectively to counter authoritarian figures like Trump. Steven's book, "Comeback: Routing Trumpism, Reclaiming the Nation, and Restoring Democracy's Edge, available now.
