But mum Michelle Dickinson was put off after reading the terms and conditions that she believes ignore children's digital privacy and the risks of artificial intelligence.

Podshow 14 Nov - Entrevista com Bruno Rocha e Renato Sposito diretores nacionais da TCS

Ein Occasionsauto kann eine kluge und kostengünstige Wahl sein. Doch wie erkennt man ein gutes Angebot und vermeidet teure Überraschungen? Der TCS-Experte gibt wertvolle Tipps für den sicheren Gebrauchtwagenkauf – von der Garage bis zum Online-Angebot. Der Kauf eines Occasionsautos ist oft finanziell attraktiv, da der grösste Wertverlust bereits abgeschrieben ist. Doch mit zunehmendem Alter steigt auch die Wahrscheinlichkeit für Reparaturen. TCS-Experte Thomas Bollinger empfiehlt daher, beim Kauf auf folgende Punkte zu achten: Kauf beim Garagisten: Bevorzugen Sie Garagen mit eigener Werkstatt. Bei Occasionen, die älter als fünf Jahre sind, sollte der Verkäufer das Auto auf seine Kosten beim TCS einem Occasionstest unterziehen. Das schafft Transparenz über den Zustand und mögliche Mängel. MFK und Garantie: Die letzte MFK-Kontrolle sollte nicht länger als acht Monate zurückliegen, besonders bei Autos über vier bis fünf Jahren. Achten Sie zudem auf eine Garantie von mindestens drei Monaten auf Teile und Arbeit, um sich vor unerwarteten Kosten zu schützen. Viele Garantie-Versicherungen schliessen oft wichtige Punkte aus. Elektroautos: Für Elektro-Occasionen bieten Garagen und der TCS spezielle Batterietests an, die Aufschluss über den Zustand der Batterie geben. Ein Batteriezertifikat ist hier ein wichtiges Kriterium. Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis: Das beste Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis bieten oft vier bis fünf Jahre alte Occasionen mit weniger als 75'000 km Laufleistung. Vorsicht bei «Kiesplatz»-Händlern und Privatkäufen: Wer wenig Ahnung von Autotechnik hat, sollte bei grossen Occasionsmärkten oder Privatverkäufen vorsichtig sein. Ein umfassender Test und ein Batteriezertifikat bei E-Autos sowie ein vollständiges Service-Heft sind unerlässlich. Bei moderneren Autos ist zudem die Software ein wichtiger Faktor, die oft nur von Vertragshändlern ausgelesen, analysiert und aktualisiert werden kann. Der private Online-Kauf älterer Occasionen birgt erhöhte Risiken.

In this episode of The Brian Icenhower Podcast, we dive into one of the biggest growth challenges for real estate agents and teams: choosing between hiring a transaction coordinator (TC) and an administrative assistant. While many agents lean toward TCs because the cost comes directly from closings, Brian explains why top-producing agents and large teams invest in admin support instead—and how that decision fuels long-term growth. You'll learn: The key differences between a transaction coordinator and a true admin. Why admins don't just save you time—they generate more revenue and elevate client service. The four major roles admins can play: listing manager, transaction coordinator, marketing director, and administrative manager. How to train and layer responsibilities as your business scales. Why relying solely on TCs can hold your team back, while admin systems create scalability and better client experiences. If you're serious about building a business that runs smoothly and grows beyond your personal production, this conversation will give you a clear roadmap for leveraging admin support to take your team to the next level.   Book a FREE coaching call: http://CoachCallFree.com Enroll in our online courses: http://www.IcenhowerInstitute.com Sign up for coaching: http://www.IcenhowerCoaching.com Sign up for an Agent Management Portal: http://AgentManagementPortal.com Join the fastest growing Facebook Group for Top Producers: https://www.facebook.com/groups/REagentRoundTable

Timestamps: (5:10) - Chance Englebert Update (11:15) - Cari Farver Dave Kroupa and Cari Farver hit it off immediately on the day that Cari took her vehicle into Dave's auto repair shop in Nebraska in 2012.  They began seeing each other and both agreed that they only wanted a casual relationship.  Dave had been seeing another woman named Liz Golyar prior to meeting Cari.  When Cari was given a job opportunity close to Dave's home, he offered for her to stay with him to make her commute easier.  Cari accepted and the two continued their easy-going relationship. One day in November 2012, Cari seemingly changed.   She started sending Dave possessive and obsessive messages and he decided to end things, saying he had dodged a bullet. The messages kept coming, sometimes hundreds per week.  Despite the electronic communications being sent, Cari's family were becoming increasingly worried as they were unable to get in touch with her.   After she failed to show up to her father's funeral, they reported her missing. Cari's alleged harassment of Dave went on for years. Police eventually began to investigate and what would unravel is one of the most bizarre cases we can recall.   It was discovered that Liz Golyar (the woman Dave had previously been seeing) was behind the messages and years of harassment.  It was also discovered that she had murdered Cari and disposed of her body. As of October 2025, Cari's remains have not been found.

On today show, we are talking about the impact of the newly announced $100,000 fee associated with the H1B visa to the United States. According to my research, historically the United States had admitted 65,000 H1 B visas per year with an additional 20,000 visa for those holding advanced US degrees.Anytime there is a major policy shift. The marketplace will adapt and find a new way to optimize the allocation of talent. Silicon Valley was cited as one of the Main reasons for the policy change.The tech industry has seen significant layoffs over the past year. Companies like Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Facebook have all released tens of thousands over the past year.The policy change will probably see some of those laid off workers getting rehired and those international workers covered by a visa, now a very expensive visa, being sent home to their country of origin.The largest user of H1B visas is Amazon with over 14,600 visa holders. At $100,000 a year each, this would cost an additional $1.4B in fees to the US government. I personally would be surprise if any company would just roll over and pay for an additional $1.4B in fees. The top users are Amazon, TCS from India with about 5500, Microsoft with a little over 5100, Meta with about 5100.Even Walmart has about 2400. I would bet that Walmart would move those positions to their software design center in Toronto or Ottawa and save $239M dollars with zero loss of productivity. When I ran an engineering organization, we did not use the H1B Visa program to import labour per se. We used the program to bring a few people from some of the remote design centres and immerse them in the culture in our Sunnyvale office so that they could in turn cross pollinate the culture across the organization. It gave that individual a foreign expat assignment and at the same time improved the cohesiveness between the different design centres around the world. They would later return to their remote design centre. I personally believe that the use of the H1B Visa will drop to nearly zero with the imposition of this new policy. That means another 100,000 people in high paying jobs will likely leave the US. These people will probably continue to work for the same company from their country of origin, if they are an individual contributor. If they are in a managerial role, then the relationship gets more complicated. I truly can't think of too many companies that will be willing to pay that $100,000 fee for the visa. This year 2025 was the first year in which US population has shrunk in almost 100 years. Shrinking population means a shrinking economy, especially when you consider that 70% of the GDP is based on consumption. ----------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1)   iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613)   Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com)   LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce)   YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso)   Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com)  **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com)   Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital)   Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

Skip straight to the case: (10:35) In October 2024, six members of the Humiston family were sleeping peacefully in their beds in Fall City, Washington.   Parents Sarah and Mark lived in a beautiful lake-front home with their five children - aged between 7 and 15. Sarah and Mark had been having some troubles with their eldest son, who we will call  ‘A'.   He had been caught viewing inappropriate images online and had been struggling with his school work.   On October 21, 2024, A retrieved a gun from the family's gun safe.   He then allegedly shot every single member of his family.  He believed they were all dead and he called 911.  He told dispatchers that his younger brother Benjamin had carried out the massacre before taking his own life. A was incorrect in thinking that his whole family was dead.   His 11 y/o sister had played dead after he shot her and she managed to run to a neighboring property to ask for help.  She told authorities the true story.    In August 2025, new court documents were filed that indicate the Humiston parents were controlling and isolated their children from the community.   “A common theme that has been expressed amongst extended family, neighbors, and those who knew the Humistons is that the children were isolated from the outside world and did not engage socially with many peers – only a select few families that went to their church and were friends of their family,” court documents say. “Furthermore, initial reports indicate the home was abusive, tightly controlled, and dominated by extreme religious beliefs.” A has been charged with five counts of first-degree murder and one count of attempted murder.   A debate is currently ongoing in the legal system to determine if he will be tried as an adult or a juvenile.

Timestamps: (7:58) - Stockdale Family In 2008, the Stockdale family from Ohio appeared on the reality TV show ‘Wife Swap.'  Kathy and Timothy Stockdale were raising their four sons in a very strict, conservative manner.   This is an excerpt from the family manual Kathy prepared for ‘Wife Swap.'  We moved to the country to get the boys away from the city. Our children are being raised away from violent language, sexual influences, drinking, smoking, drugs, rap music all the things we left behind in the city. Instead we are raising our children on a diet of wholesome activities and farm work; keeping their minds pure and their bodies healthy and keeping out the influences of modern society. That is why we home-school. By 2017, two of the children remained in the family home - Jacob and James.  One day that year, while Timothy was at work, Jacob fatally shot his brother James and his mother Kathy.   He then attempted to take his own life by shooting himself in the head.  He survived and was hospitalised for many months. After he recovered, Jacob was charged with the murders of his mother and brother.   No motive for the killings has ever been revealed. In this episode of the True Crime Society Podcast, we discuss the murder/suicide involving the Stockdale family from ‘Wife Swap.'
