Q&A: Should I Share MRR With My Employees?
"My co-founder. And i probably be hiring someone in the near future i hire. I was just wondering when you hired in the past. Would you share financial metrics like m. are with employees or. Would you keep that just between you and your co founder is curious to hear what other people do in this situation. It's a good question davis and think the way i would do. It is the way that i did it with drip to be honest if felt weird to me to not share r. m. r. was was our. Kpi right it was the key performance indicator that drove the business and if mara was growing than the business was successful. I'll say. I mean that was the number one. Of course everything flows out of of mr. I wanna be clear. Obviously happy customers happy employees. There's a bunch of stakeholders but just to boil it down to one number to me. It is immoral. Tell so much about your market share about your enterprise value. If you were to sell the company about how much profit you could potentially have all these things so everything flows from our then. It's right like the lower your turn the faster. Mtr is going to grow and without telling let's see my marketers or my customer success people or even my developers where we were it would have felt weird. I think people will likely if they're working for you and they don't know you're probably think it's a lot more than it is and that can sometimes lead issues in terms of why not getting paid more wire. We so stingy with our amazon hosting or why are we paying more for xyz service. Why don't we have better benefits or whatever versus if they start and it's like yeah. We make thirty grand a month and you can do the math here. There's four of us. We're pretty much at break. Even which is in essence. What i would tell every employee i would hire at drip obviously before we were acquired because once we required we were venture backed essence. But i would tell them you know you're going to learn what are monthly recurring revenue is. I'm gonna let you know that we spend all of that every month sometimes more to grow this company so what i was trying to do is level set. You see that number. That's forty grand sixty grand one hundred grand whatever month that is not going into my personal bank account. This business is in essence. A growth business and growth costs money

"Of faith you're going to be getting offered a pack and they will show you what is in the pack in offer that you could buy with the currency that's actual real world money or you could buy with in currency and then it will be available with those same islands impact for a limited time. I want to say i. It's a better arrangement. But at the limited time offer thing gets me because it is a psychological manipulation of an what's arguably the audience are people with substance substance An addiction issues As well as children right because shelbourne see. What's in the pack. Oh my god. I'm going to get that one thing and then they're gonna spend the mike.

"To get big. I'm gonna compete in a big space and the idea of exiting is for a lot of money is is intriguing. I don't. I don't think that you know that's something they wanna do. How would you have described your approach when you were doing drip. It's interesting. Switched the idea it was like. Oh this'll be another lifestyle business. This'll be great because hill before it was doing twenty five thirty grand a month. It was just me few contractors so it was that amazing like cash machine and it was the most most profitable in the most money. Right that i had ever pulled out of a business so drip i was thinking could it be bigger than that. Still profitable but really. Just be a couple people. I didn't want to grow a team. That's how it started. And by the time we pivoted into full blown. Esp and then marketing. automation. I was like this is not. We can't do that like we have to hire and when we got to you know obviously ten people when we required my approach by that time had become. This is an opportunity. That i don't think i should fumble because the how big the space was and how much traction we were. Getting and kind of mini brand that we had built. It felt like it. I would have been doing myself a disservice in my life to not take advantage of that and try to build it and i didn't. I didn't suddenly become. I'm going to build it and sell it. But i did see the path to many sevens figures and frankly probably would be you know at this point if i was still running would be in eight figures which obviously it is now with the new owners. But that was that. How would you describe your approach because see folks. No you found her bid sketch now the founder of sign well which is embiid sketches proposal software sas and sign well is electronic signature which is a much much larger and much more competitive space. And so it's a different. Would you say those two are similar. Where bid sketches. Maybe the lifestyle portion and sign. Well is like that. This thing can get really really big. I think that's right. I with bids catch. it was definitely about just. I just quit my job to do that. Full time and it was just take out as much cash as they could out of the business and have as much free time as i possibly could while doing it growing the business but not being necessarily super aggressive at times. Be more aggressive than than others. About about growth. But for doc sketch. It's definitely a different different beast. It's from the start. It was more of a longer term approach versus like with biscuits. I had to optimize a little bit more on the revenue side. Because i wanted to do that full time. And then it was the only thing for the bells Once i started i had sketched that i could leverage to pay some the bills and i could take a different approach. Try and build something much bigger longer term. Sometimes when you overly optimize for revenue early on you damage your chances for creating something much bigger later on. So that's sort of how thinking about the differences between the two. Yeah that makes a lot of sense. I mean if you weren't on the show today you would have been in my top. Three i would have been pelley. Ruben and jordan. In terms of folks that i think are pushing things forward and just have cool kind of a cool outlook on it and in case folks missed it. You call it doc. Sketch i called it. Sign well because you are renaming it in the next in the coming weeks you have publicly announced that tier user base. So it's not like i'm breaking news but just so folks understand that wrote bid..

"Three or the uae or in fremont or it's in china. You know that at some point over the cars are going to catch up and the change is a constant so yeah. I'd absolutely buy model why that came out of a chinese factory. No worries about that. This source reportedly saying the refreshed. Twenty twenty two s. An ex will reach europe in the next quarter. And that's where. I have my doubts because the delivery estimates on tesla's design studio in the uk was. They might not be accurate down to the day. You know the in the hour that pretty good and they still say the if you buy a new esera new x it's going to be delivered at the end of twenty two. That's a year and a half away. Now okay i want be looking at the. Uk design studio. That is right. hand drive versions now. This could be a european issue so there is that caveat. More work needs to be done. But it'll be very good if the refreshed s an ex plied or long range or any combination of any of those. Were indeed if not where. I am ryan dr uk but suddenly mainland europe. Well by the end of the year that would be fantastic for those customers and fans of tesla river. Here that really want to get inside those need cars. The news is interesting. Because it's known that the model y production it will be a focus of berlin berlin. I said for a long time the fest. 'cause will come out of that in july and is so clear that that's not going to happen now through a variety of factors. It's now looking like the end of the year. The berlin could be spooling up and the first customer cars coming out by the end of the year for model y again donut. That's only left-hand-drive but it would be right hendra. It would be left hundred. I of course and then not have to wait a little bit longer to get the right hand drive version over here but either way what does it say that taking model wise out of china and taking two year some people say some say it means. There's no demand for the model y in china. That's one opinion. You could also be of the opinion that the model y sells for more money in europe then in china said by making their by not selling it that by actually disappointing chinese customers by taking them out of the country. You make more money more margin by selling them to europeans. You could also argue that country opinion All could it mean. Berlin is actually even more delayed than we've been publicly. There are many things that you could assume. We know nothing yet but we think that this is true that the model y will be in europe sometime q. Three as a big old window. Isn't it but july. August september sometime coming from china. That's no problem at all by the white because the tests that have been done by the youtubers. The likes of newland in hawaii who've been driving the made in china model three actually. He's there was some cold weather issues with the new battery chemistry. It's the l f p with the mind falsified and the very very slow charging. I'm talking mega slow charging When those calls a new software wasn't very good And tesla hadn't learn enough about those batteries in the cold and it was ridiculous in some screen shots. I go sent single digit kilowatt. Charge speeds for those lfg cells now that was from one of my listeners. In switzerland and in it was cold there obviously and it's another example of how. Maybe you could say the car makers would have done an extensive six to nine months testing program and then released onto the customers whereas you know that the way tesla works and the customers largely largely. Don't mind being beta testers. Well the cows good enough ship it like a silicon company. Silicon valley company would say any like your software company ship. It and we'll work out the bugs lighter with over the air updates and they appear to be doing that because the latest battery testing on these f. b. cells albeit it's warmer weather now does appear to show a very good charge cuff nice and flat but holding onto the charge For a faster speed for longer than the chemistry with cobalt in. That's coming out the fremont cows. So we'll wait and see what i'm trying to say is if you have concerns about buying a chinese made model y you shouldn't. I'm very confident that those laws Buying up to spec but what do you think always like to hear from you and feedback from the audience. Model is all about efficiency. The model s. long range and the plat of course new now we have the long range The new long range have been different. Things over the years official. Epa range so the old long range plus walls four hundred and two miles official then. The long range previously to that was three seven three now. The new updated version some the palladium powertrain has four zero five official apia range for a five elon. Musk did say on stage for twelve. He didn't get the memo. Someone has since been fired on a joking So yeah he got it wrong on stage. It's vote for twelve. It's forty five is officially but the efficiency rating the mpg e. We don't have that here. Must go up from one hundred eleven to one hundred twenty over the last couple of versions of that car so it would seem to imply the previous battery of one. Hundred and four kilowatt hours is probably two to four kilowatt hour smaller. So it's probably like one hundred kilowatt hour pack back in the model s. nine hundred and four. It's lighter and less cells which is just like it's minimum nissan is launching the new aura a. u. a. the aura with the ev power which they call e power and the doing in japan sale. Start in the autumn. It's the e pow power train says green congress let reminder. This is not an easy It uses a petrol engine to generate electricity. The electricity then charges a battery deeming tiny battery and that then powers an electric motor to move you forward. Of course the car doesn't have plug suck on so it's really just a series slash serial hybrid in but everything is in line. It starts with a petrol engine and then it goes to the battery. Then he goes to the motor now. This is wildly popular in japan. They introduced the system to the market in two thousand sixteen. On the note into the serena minivan in eighteen. The kicks suv back. In june twenty twenty neva of note last year and also the cash. Kyw here in europe that gotta in february so very impressive nissim pitcher as electrified simply because won't tons the wheels is electrons. But how you make them is purely by burning stuff thrown by one of these. It's not an easy unless you want. I one knowing you buying petro car. A hazy when these things get advertised as hey this is new. It's not earn a rights persia next and they're opening the books for the rift up. This is one of the latest models to join persia really growing range of zero emission vehicles. And now the vans which are going to be. Delivered from november onwards process starts at thirty thousand pounds if you needs this. Powertrain is the emp to platform soap. Hundred kilowatts of power hundred. Thirty six horsepower in other words Can i fifty kilowatt hour battery. Pack hundred and seventy two miles of range. Great little van A small van viable in two trim levels One of them the lua of course if you're doing a trim level for what is ultimately a working vehicle. Let's cool that trim. Level the blue by the rifta Little van i guess i guess it would apply. It would still cause below thirty five thousand it would still get the uk government's grunts If it's not officially classified as a commercial vic look into that one okay. Moving on london electric cars. Lic her company the classic car conversions. I love this because then now offering a twenty five thousand pound electric conversion for the classic mini. Not the mini. That you see now because it's anything but many the nineteen sixties classic shape italian job many. Then we'll take out the engine or maybe the engines kibbutz and put in an electric powertrain for twenty five grand and that is brilliant kilowatt hour battery pack hundred seven horsepower. Motor says bmw blog if you want a bit more and power and range. They'll do a twenty five kilowatt hour pack or thirty killing alpaca for thirty grand lifted from an old leaf. They will even do the current forty kilowatt hour pack from relief. But they'd have to take out the backseats because the mini is very very small ho to express saying the electric motor also from donor vehicle. The nissan leaf. They do put it under the bonnet the front and it has twice as much power as a standard mini. So it's going to be so much fun. These calls a small lightweight. Gonna give you a big smile. It'll keep these vehicles on the road for longer. Because maybe the chassis is fine but the engine for whatever reason it's just gonna be expensive to fix or is completely gone and the london electric car company again. Spend the next four years expanding the cars they do this to got kits for. Vw's ford anglia's lincoln continentals by the middle of the decade. They wanna thousand conversions from that london workshop. I love love. Love this story so much because he's taking current. Ev technology and putting it in a classic car. I also keeping classic cars on the road. We're storing them and keeping them in. The condition came out of the factory that there's room for everyone. But if you wanna put an electric powertrain into a classic mini the as a style icon. And for many people of a certain way each an icon of what they grew up with. Then this be such a passion project or weekend car or is that second car in your garage. It so so cool to have power in a mini for twenty five grand. I mean you have to provide the vehicle by the white. That's still i think. I think it is a bogging. Yes i do know the value of money. But i think that'd be such a cool price. Okay let's move on an moment. We'll talk about jelly. Selling out of their zeka brand. Stick around for those details okay. Let's meet the world's first sixteen. Tom electric truck very ten million electric cars on the world's roads at the end of last year as registration sold by forty one percent in a year but when it comes to hauling heavy goods much to the wealthy trucks running on diesel vanni starting to change now known in germany. The world's first sixteen ton all electric truck. The volta zero on the roads in france italy and spain and is entering officials service. By the end of the is the world economic forum electrifying truck fleets will have a positive impact. The urban air quality according to the un nine after ten of his breathe polluted ab at quality is at its worst in city centres. The ninety-six entries in the global league table of worst air quality locations. Yes that own cities. Recent research shows that three and a half early deaths are caused by outdoor air pollution. Now in the volta the driver sits not in the center of the cab that makes sense. Then you have to do right and left hand drive versions so an and he can get two people to decide if you will one person decided you. I should say so. Driver sits you know mclaren f one styling slap binding in the middle of but also low really low down with that huge position of most truck and bus drivers but they've managed to get the driver sitting nice and low and because it's a low level more than the line of pedestrians and along with other car drivers now conventional truck blind spots get eliminat- eliminated by the glass house. It's just a ton of his ability in this. Plus you get twenty two hundred and twenty degrees of visibility with cameras rather than conventional mirrors and it should make them very safe but of course it will make them regardless of whether the driver sits clean the fully electric and we need more things like this in our towns and city centres. Great were there from the team at volta with the zero. I'm really excited about commercial. Trucking going all electric white to see more of them. I think things that talks about like the the ford transit van such a workhorse such a legendary name you know depending on how many they can sell you get five ten twenty thousand dollars out the door and really not even get noticed in the wider world but think of the amazing difference that will make us diesel vehicles coming off the road cots white to see more of them and let's talk about g lean next chinese company owned repulsed etc. A zeka is a premium brand launched by g and they're sold out for the year chief executive of the company saying today according to reuters geely like postal volvo owner as well of course launched the zeka brand back in april to talk at the growing chinese demand for premium electric vehicles along side nieto n. Tesla executive saying that zeki will use a direct sales model to manage pricing and inventory. The brand plans to open more than one hundred stolz Sometime this year jellies making zeka cars in china's eastern city of ningbo an already sought out already in demand.

"I'm going to lump together. United talked about things like irrigation or the The old camry tractor which we love to bring up the the idea in general just to to summarize those together with the harvester the idea that you can do things by hand when they are proven pieces of equipment. That are meant to do these things for you right and it comes it comes back to. It comes back to money to some degree to a large degree. Inner also comes back to the attitude of. I don't need to buy. I don't need to buy that. I've got this roll of duct tape. I'm sure it will get the job done why less i don't get me wrong duct tape. We'll get the job done however not for long So there's that kind of a theme that we've got going on here with spending money in the right place and then money isn't necessarily money that you have in your pocket. It's money that you can borrow against future. James and future james is totally cool with that Because he he knows what's going to how it's going to save as bacon but getting over that that mental hurdle of the fact that you're going into debt for business now usually causes. Most people take pause because now it's now something real whereas before it wasn't because all the current cash that you've spent inter-business is gone and you're comfortable with what you have left. You're not borrowing against future saying. I'm going to spend all this money now that i don't have to pay back and not knowing what the future holds makes it too scary and i don't wanna be responsible for that. Same thing goes with And that's directly applicable to what we're talking about with an buying a three point or belly mounted side wieder like the old We'd badger and stuff to save y'all that brand new that chunk of that piece of kids like thirty grand. Do you know how much money i spent on. Hand weeding in labor a year. Half half of that for one year and not only in that was didn't include the cost of trying to find those people in constant turnover and people management blah blah blah versus having a piece of equipment where. I could have one person my farm supervisor who i can trust. Run it and simplify operation. Plus the net the net outflow of cash is less. Because you're paying for that and installments correct on. It's being done better. Yeah and that. And the fact that you're out you're out flow is less enrolled cash. Means you can use that cash for other things that are going on there so it it all gets all cascades whereas whereas what you thought you were doing by hand weeding is is taking shortcut and doing things you know quickly and cheaper will when you're doing the in fact the exact opposite sank. We need a new episode of things. I wish i would have bought her there. Yeah i think there's something to be said for that. There could be quite a bit of that it again. These all just come back to make future you happier by my by forcing present you to do the right thing and not the not. What looks like the quick and easy thing so many of these examples were.

"This song we all know sharada script would have been better with wonder Cliffs brothers up. i'm wondering cliffs up to you. Live from utah. Maybe a ten. Yeah and brian from mafunda literally ten seconds before he said that nobody else would know. He came in and engineering. That's interesting on so from from the old days to the new day so i guess bars bars and restaurants bars especially got hit the hardest with all the restrictions right because the restaurants doing take out and people are eating outside our have a drink if you had food right so you can sit at the bar so that was an issue as well you know. What what Places like florida are crazy for example in florida. If you're a bar that serves food you couldn't open but if you're a restaurant that had a bar you could see all. The restaurants just became bars at ten o'clock at night. It was incredibly unfair to the bar. Owners and every state has stories like this adam. I just did the last season of bar rescue and during this last season rescue. I really saw for the first time. How this impacted people and you know we've all talked about restaurants are closing and bubba. There's a family who lost their house three days before i got there. They had four boys under ten years old sleeping on a wooden floor above the restaurant. They lost everything you know. And and it's become so human for me during the season of our rescue. I've seen how it's impacted individuals so much you know. They talked about thirty forty percent. And i'm one of the ones who who've been very statistically involved in this on all the new shows and stuff we're gonna finish up losing about eighteen percent of the restaurants and about twenty five percent of the bars across the country as a result of this thing and talking about the fact that those are family fortunes right then families who've invested everything into these businesses. It's devastating and shocking. Is that low. Like i thought it'd be a lot more wrangling. Well most people forecasted more. But that's where it's crazy. It's a little better than we thought. But now think of this. You know those little ketchup packets well during covid. We all had to use those ketchup packets. Because you couldn't use bottles a catch because cove sanitation. Those used to cost seven cents. They went up to eleven cents then went up to seventeen cents then. They went up to thirty cents last week. They were forty cents each. And you can't get them well. I have a friend owns a lobster house. New york lobster used to cost them nine dollars a pound us now. Twenty one dollars. A pound brisket went from nine dollars to two twenty two dollars so restaurants facing a really big problem. Now guys we can make any money. The food is so expensive. We can't raise our prices by thirty forty percent but our prices have been raised by seventy eighty percent. So we're not out of the woods just because customers are coming in some of the restrictions are lifted. We're really screw us crude as it comes to buying our products and we can't even get them in most cases. What about passing along by the way when. You're talking about ketchup packets. He's reminded me my grandfather. Talking about stamps should be eighteen cents chance now there are twenty seven cents all right calm down gripe to letters forever. Stamps are fifty eight now But so i used to be in the building trades and the thing that's gone up hundred and fifty percent is all building materials especially dimensional. Lumber plywood is ninety bucks a sheet used to be thirty eight bucks a sheet like so in the building. The building world the supplies of gone up in insane amount. And if you're bill there you just have to pass it along. You just go while each house. I think is an average of thirty grand more nationally for single family house. You just have to tack thirty grand onto the bed a winner restaurants gonna do that or why. Don't they do that. Well there's a whole position of price sensitivity. It's a little scary at him to just print a new menu and raise your prices by thirty forty percent. That's devastating raid on the right day to do that. If everyone did it on the same day it would work boy. Do i agree with you. That's the problem. Is i do it in a guy across the street doesn't right so i i get killed in that scenario so there has to be some understanding the community that this does have to happen by the way i'm with you on a remodeling during a bar. Rescues and we couldn't get lumber was about one hundred and ten percent higher than normal but stuff like hinges door locks hardware joists. I mean all of this stuff. We can't even get it adam. It's unbelievable how a what kind of supply side problems we're having. Yeah they're talking. I was looking at some cars over Galp and ford out here in van nuys galp and has this huge multi acreage sort of storage lot behind the facility in. It's just city block after city block and the guy was like there's normally ten thousand cars here. There's two thousand yeah. We can't get the chip. That's i almost didn't get a car. it's not just cars. It's it's like not nintendo. It's like all the the gaming systems it's cars. It's a microchip that nobody can get coffee. Machines use it right. I'm going up to montana for a couple of weeks vacation. Wanted to rent a car up there. So we're calling the rental car companies. They have no cars in a reason why they have no cars is. They can't get new cars because the chip and in their business plan they have to sell their existing cars when they twenty thousand miles on them. So they're still selling the old cars when they can't get new cars so they have no cars my My friend Matt deandra do Car cast with lease mom at brab four toyota like a year and a half ago toyota. There and said you went. We have the car back or sell it back or he done with the car. Like we'll get back we get it back from you. Yes so there's a long lasting patients here. Yeah i bought this. Nineteen foot airstream van which i during the pandemic. Because it's it's the size of a car but it's like a little camper van and you can stand up in and it's got a bathroom and a little kitchen and abandoned and everything and i bought this thing. I was supposed to get three months. It took me nine months to get. And i've had offers for twice what i pay for it you. You can't get one so i don't. I'm not sure how quickly this goes away. Guys you know. I think we're going to have some supply-side pain for quite a while and We're all going to have to absorb some of these additional costs in some way Again the new episode two hundred episode of bar rescue is going to be on the paramount network this sunday ten eastern seven pacific.

"The cops the cops won't chase him That's interesting so the fat white guy can't run very fast gets arrested and the athletic young man gets away while this is going to end. Well isn't it. Hello chicago police officer and thank you for watching this instructional video as you may have heard the chicago. Police department has updated our policies on foot pursuit of suspects in recent months the public perception of police officers chasing a black suspect on foot particularly white. Police officers has changed dramatically for now on. If you see a black suspect fleeing from you resist the urge to chase after him chasing. A suspect has been deemed racist. And you don't want to seem racist do you. I know what you're thinking. But if i can't chase suspects paula arrest the bad guys not to worry chasing white and asian suspects is still okay. This policy primarily applies towards black suspects. You're probably also wondering. But what if the suspect is hispanic good question in the event that a suspect is of latino descent. You must quickly ask yourself. Is the suspect dark enough for me to be considered racist. Any white hispanic is fair game. So go ahead and arrest your george zimmerman's and your marco rubio types but if the suspect has darker complexion than you like big papi for cardi b. then you should abstain pursuing the suspect on foot or else people might think you're racist and that's bad and when they think you're racist they'll think the whole chicago. Police department is racist so remember chicago police officers when trying to decide if you should pursue a suspect on foot ask yourself. This question will doing so. Make me look racist.

And he's been on top of this. This this this category of of cases is just going on and on and on. It's made its way up to the texas legislature here where they're trying to get bail refund reform Bail bond reform because these guys are just being released to get into. It's as if these judges and district attorneys are saying how can we maximize crime in our communities. But here's the worst part about it for the democrat voter the inner city minority democrat voter. They're not committing these crimes in the suburbs. they're not committing amount in the country because those people are armed. It'll kill them they're committing these crimes. In the inner city they're committing these crimes against women much of domestic abuse. Must much of it a child abuse and yet the democrats say you know what you seem like a swell guy. How many baby mamas do you have out there well you. You've done this to your baby. Mamas daughter will go to the other baby mamas son. And that's exactly what happened in the case. I'm going to tell you about knauf. Credit fox twenty six houston this young defenseless one year. Old child is now the one hundred nine victim of a defendant who's been released on multiple felony bonds and or a felony pr on that is reprehensible. It just gets worse on february third of last year one hundred and eighty fourth criminal court. Judge abigail store seo set callans bond for an aggravated robbery charge at thirty grand while out of jail on that bond. He's charged with injury to a child. The first one involved multiple rib fractures to his one month old son. Those fractures were in various stages of healing and the defendant gave an admission to out of frustration squeezing that child on his chest. Guess what we're not letting you back out again. We're keeping you because obviously your public safety threat. Instead of revoking his thirty thousand dollars cash bond judge anastasio freed. Calhoun on a pr bond. Aka. get out of jail free card i. I'd love to hear an explanation. I think the people are owed an explanation now. Calhoun has a second injury to a charge in the death of his one year. Old daughter the explanation he gave are innocent explanations. But they're not consistent with the injuries seem by medical experts. Those injuries are consistent with abusive head. Trauma that is non accidental. Judge us yo. Originally said callans bond for the second injury to a child. Charge at half a million dollars visiting judge vanessa. The last kiss presided over the hearing she kept the bond at half a million dollars and doubled. Calhoun prior bond. Unfortunately this is the second instance of him doing this exact same thing and the unfortunate part about it is we now have a dead. One rolled That wouldn't have happened. Judge velazquez calhoun. If he finds a way to post a hefty bonds he better be prepared to pay for an electric monitoring device. It'd be under house arrest. So wanna make sure you understand this. The man is arrested for aggravated robbery. Aggravated means an aggravating factor. A gun so he's arrested for aggravated robbery. Burglary of a habitation robbery. Means a human being was involved. Okay so there's someone you you stole something from you took using force. He's arrested for that and then he beats his one year old son. He's freed on a pr bond and.

"That will cause you ten years later to be ahead of the guber that are saddled with student loans around their neck shen and so the other thing is the question changes. Sean is depending on what you're studying and why you're studying it if you're getting a degree in lefthanded puppetry quit college and keep working if you're getting a degree in digital security then you get get through school as fast as you can pay whatever price you got to do with no debt and get you know because you're gonna go out there and you're gonna make more money as a result of the schooling. All education is not economically profitable. Some subjects are economically useless. So be studying something that causes your dadgum income. Go up you make thirty grand. Be out there making sixty eight hundred when you come out. And then it's worth working your butt off at the part time job and you know and leaning in and getting through the school real fast but what you're studying matters yes and where you're going to school matters because it's how fast you can pay for it and pay cash for it so very very good question. I agree with you anthony. That was a great great thing. So the problem anthony. And you've done so much work in the student loan sector and you our borrowed future. Podcast has had millions and millions and millions of downloads. Now and you're kind of the star of that show Where we talk about the epic failure that is the student loan world but part of the backlash against higher. Ed for going up so much in cost and against the student loan debacle is to say no one ever should go to college and we don't believe that here no not at all not at all i. I believe that college is a great route I believe education is the best route for all of us but how we go about the education and where we go to get the education will be different depending upon individuals may go to community college. Some may go to trade school. Some may go into the workforce and get education air. Some may go to a traditional school if you want to be a schoolteacher you gotta go to a traditional school route. But if you wanna be a welder you can go to welding school More than the schoolteacher. Exactly you can't. And so. I think one thing that i that i really want to understand I didn't finish my college degree and there's nothing wrong with that. 'cause my route didn't require that but i'm still getting educated every single day within my space And so i think the key thing that i'm telling young people anymore just young people dave. All people is identify where you wanna go and canco teaches his. Who is.

Although there now retired they were both named super bowl. Mvp and are both predicted to be inducted into the pro football hall of fame. While peyton is commonly thought of as the better talent ee lie has an additional super bowl championship to hold over his big brother's head so that might make family dinners a little bit awkward holdovers from clean competitive football dog in this fight but when it comes to famous sports sisters. No one can compare with tennis superstars. Venus and serena williams the to have had an intense rivalry for decades in two thousand seventeen serena beat venus in the australian open and made history as the first woman to win twenty three grand slam titles combined the sisters have thirty grand slam singles titles and nine olympic medals. The best part they still refer to each other as best friends. It is a definitely a strange to be in because no one else has been the position.

"Facing a primary challenger. Yeah plumbing plummets. Been in there since the eighties. So he's got a massive incumbency advantage. doesn't really i mean. She only raised so far. Five grand or five and a half grand. I think if there's a wedge issue that can be drawn here it's it would be dominion and i don't think that's enough of a wedge issue for democratic primary voters in a state like this out in fairfax for her really unseat plum it to save to be upset. Her to win is an understatement. It'd be a christmas. Miracle plum has again just Has this massive incumbency advantage in while you can say well you know who else having mass macos advantage. Dick sas law and also out. The main issue was dominion there. But you know. This is a district for out west in fairfax on. Where's that one. That represents closer to the beltway. So it's not really as there's not really much appetite for progressivism there In this type of progressivism compared to closer to the beltway. So i think it's going to be fine. I don't think he's gonna lose. It will be again a christmas. Miracle for bartelson win that primary christmas june. Yeah ken plum when he was caucus scare raised. A lot of money. And i'm sure he could do it again if he needs to turn it on. I'd point out to just the internal politics of the local district when you've got an incumbent who's been there since the eighties. You've got a long line of potential successors behind them and the reality is that the local democratic committee will never get behind mary because every single one of them want to be the next elected official to represent that district with. Ken pumps endorsement. Hopefully so i don't see the local party getting behind bury. Her message is interesting. She's an an her background is just saying she's an engineer. She's clearly brilliant at science but the reality is would it comes to convincing one hundred people in one room can plum is going to have a much easier time historical note. Ken plum was first elected in one thousand. Nine hundred seventy seven so it's actually been in the house and see late seventies. Okay so moving onto virginia house district. Thirty eight delegate k. Corey has a not just a primary challenger but one of the two holly hazards in virginia. Who are running for office. Chaz what to make of this democratic primary here for house district eight. You know hazardous trying to run two. Coreys left allegedly but unlike the other races. I've mentioned so far i can't really find a wedge issue here hazardous the former legislative director to corey. And you know. She has raised Some money thirty grand corey's race fifty five grand so far but Coys much trouble here. Because there's not any even if there were a wedge issue. This is another one of those seats out in fairfax that i don't think there's much appetite for progressive challenger to unseat incumbent for So i think corey is to be fine. I don't think she's safe. Just err on the side of caution so hazard has if she wants to really make this race has to raise a little bit more money and has to find a wedge issue that she can compete with corey on. Yeah this this race is interesting because one. It indicates that there's drama in lake bar craft. Which is the precinct that determines that delegates going to be k. Corey is the pta mom former school board member. Holly hazard is a got former credentials with the humane society. And it's one of her big issues. She was also one of k corey's regular donors which makes me wonder if there's any drama there between the two of them or if holly thought that came might be retiring and wanted to run for the seat instead and there are multiple donors who have given to both k. And holly so. I don't know what that says if anything but holly is gonna need her own base of support in order to knock off k. Cory now we also have three more delegates who have primary challengers in what are probably uncompetitive. Seat chaz is ranking this uncompetitive candy king. Jeff born lamont baggy all. Three of whom have primary challenges. Chaz what are we making those three races. yeah. I don't think any of these candidates are really in much trouble. Maybe since katie king has not really wanna primary. She won the little nomination contests back in december of last year. There can maybe again. Christmas miracle for panel montgomery who placed second place in here to win here. But i don't think she really has much of a campaign to unseat candy king but especially with seventy one seventy four this jeff warner bag me. I do not see either of them. Losing they are strong incumbents in there. I they're going to be thought. Yeah candy king and jeff. Burned are specifically top targets for clean virginia and more specifically michael bills and sonya smith and they're spitting into the wind here candy king going after he refused to sign the no. Dominion pledge is a as a democrat. Don't believe any elected officials should be tying their hands with pledges period. I used to make fun of the republicans for signing tax pledges. Candy kings husband. Is josh king that sheriff of prince william county. I don't really think that that is an organization you want to get on the business end of frankly. If you're a rich jones trying to influence politics two more seats. I want to talk about before. We end this podcast. The nick rush seat and the margaret ranson seed. So nick rush is not running for reelection. It's an open seat. Got to democrats running there and then margaret red zone of course is running for reelection. You've got three democrats running in that race. Any thoughts there about these democrats running in solid red districts. Yeah these are Uncompetitive districts in the general election. It's hard to say who's a favor here because they don't really have much of a campaign compared to all these other candidates i think that When it comes to ninety nine you know the black rose very important there when it comes to houses seven Student vote is very important there. That's got some a blacksburg in and Yeah so you really have whichever candidate wants to win that primary. They in ninety nine. He got a target. The black vote in the seventy really. Got a target the virginia tech students and in floyd county. I would say there's a lot of hippies in town of floyd. It was one of the few counties. Localities of that voted bernie sanders in the primary last year. So you really for seven half too. If you want to win the primary even though you're not gonna win the general You have to run as the progressive candidates. So whichever one of the is wants to do that. That's what you gotta do in the seventh. Yeah i'm glad to see that. Some democrats are vying to get on the ballot in this race since it was such a problem in the recent past. I co-founded pack to get some of these no hopers on the ballot against republicans and the rule. There is like you for every up to every sixty thousand dollars that these democrats going against no hopers are going to raise. They're going to pull out an equivalent eight republican dollars for every one democratic dollar that holds up to about sixty grand so the reality is. I'm really glad to see that. There's interesting getting on the ballot. And then the rule is when you are on the titanic. You raid the liquor.

"Gonna move on briefly to addition watson because you know what we promised. We'll give you the shawn watson update every day and we will do that because it changes every day. What number we now here. A colonic sixteen. Yeah it is. What's fourteen lawsuits. Isn't it to. Because the time this thing drops people listen numbers rate in this situation. I think at this point where We're past the point of needing to get the data on the information now at true affords like we're at. Are you a predator or not zone. Like that's i don't know. I haven't read a the guy in the houston. Chronicle his name wilson yet. Yup does he still think sixteen are lining up to make a deal. How silly was that premise. That people still want to trade from no one would trade anything form. They wouldn't take him for nothing. The miami dolphins new york jets new england patriots niners broncos. None of them would take to shawn watson for nothing. They didn't win. Give you a thing for the shawn watson because this guy has a problem. He's not who we thought he was. I'm ready to jump to conclusions and say he was inappropriate with many many women and he had a fetish couldn't just be one or two. He wanted to do this to a number women because he probably enjoyed the challenge. Enjoyed the danger of it. All and today mike florio from pro football taco used to be a lawyer. He's got a piece saying what he would do if he you know because a lot of people ask them. What would you do if he hired you. He didn't hire florio. Had tony busby. Who's either a A lawyer or a the most incredible conman the most credible Shakedown artist of all time. Because he's the one who's updating every day with the number of masseuses who are charging accusing deshaun watson of inappropriate behavior. But but but two things two things here. He gives all this advice florio and it's reasonable. He said he'd sit down and try to get all the women or their representative in a room to make one big settlement trying to make it all. Go away with one big paycheck that they could and they clearly are looking for that because they're not having gone to the cops which brings me to point number two and end to the point where they try to basically extort him out of thirty one of them tried to extort him out of thirty grand in january. I believe i'm not sure that's extortion. If you're saying will agree not to charge you and these are hard working people at working class girls. Maybe who and by way are people like julia to cairo in on people like Niece smelly they waiting to see what race these women are. Because they haven't had much to say about this yet. But i assume they are. They going to wait and see what race they are and then they decide how they feel about it. Which is madness.

"They scan at the end of the day. It's really the people who were thinking which. I was learning from You know. I still don't have the able to be honest At the end. I failed rice. I old about thirty grand on my credit card. I really couldn't pay so actually got a job I had to get a job to go. You know working at on marketing Getting really wanting so it's still didn't take by then i was. You know that wasn't really my end but it was sort of like a means to an end at work knowing that i still want to marketing that this was just probably pay my bills. I couldn't so wha working at the egg is still writing myself nights on his building. My own brand name getting kinds on the side so eventually you know over the five years of working at an agency. I basically quiet plans to start my own nice. So so you had your side-hustle go in and you're building websites doing mark network marketing all the things that you were doing for them and so now you've got enough money coming in to leave your job but you kind of created a job for yourself right because you're doing all this work for your clients weird it turn into a business meaning you does. Things a bit more streamlined. You have a team now that you work with. How did that business come in. So you didn't just have to trade your personal time for money. Yes so you know. The funny story is when i was starting. His journey amal marketing. My parents mommy's still bid for for doing this. Getting the money for it right and then they also told me stupid for getting a job after because you know. I basically didn't were able to do what i said i was gonna do. Then you know so. While i was working on the company while i have my slack mind was making somewhere around fifty grand a year right and then they call me because i basically threw away my my income from my job and then i took whatever money bigger for my plans to start a team saw from basically recently granted year to nothing that because i wasn't paying myself salary rather get office in a heartbeat people That was the transition you know and it was an. That's a job right because you go from self-employed saying okay. Am i willing to take the next risk to actually put money into this company not get paid and maybe not even make any money right so that was that that is the transition and i took. The red sox didn't play myself for year. And then you know that's that's where we're at now. Wow so so you said rather than just transitioning over giving up the salary you were getting in living off of what you're making growing that you said i'm going all in i'm starting agency and i'm hiring two people. I'm going to get an office. I mean take on expenses. I mean you've got yourself. I'm assuming out of debt because you're making enough money to do all of that. And you're like i'm gonna go do it again. Why why did you decide to do it again. Yeah so you know again. I don't know how everyone else else's by as an entrepreneur. You never sort hot by so. You're an entrepreneur. You just keep going a lot entrepreneurs. They don't succeed on the first friday sale. And you it so for me. It was a set to be an entrepreneur. I don't think i've ever wanted to work. Corporate and journeys home for being with been living laugh. So i went on and you know and i know that i was still went on even if i feel again off. I love that i love. I appreciate that. I appreciate you just being so open about why you did it in. So now you've got three fifty coming in and going right back out to expenses. Probably some marketing that you did on on your own but then you build it up to a million bucks million bucks plus in revenue and now you've got an ongoing team as the the leader of that team. How do you translate your vision. Because you just do right. Entrepreneurs take action entrepreneurs get after they hire people and those people for better or worse many times our employees. They have an employee mentality they come in. They're looking for someone to tell them what to do. How do you instill your drive your passion your vision to the rest of your team so this business can continue to grow. I think the leader you really have to. Actually i'm trying to find the grace for Do as you say as you do whatever those all right so like for me at work extremely hard and i think everyone here sees mine worker but in solve for them is sort of more motivated by what i'm doing right. I beg me as being. The leader wasn't hardware gang. And i talked early and i didn't work at all. I think for them they would sort of take the everything's a sham. So i think that's the way they see you know like the the passion and the vision and they do follow along because of that so very cool and obviously hire the right people if if they're doing the same thing one of the hardest things that have had this conversation with a lot of my clients in the cove world is people are now working from home. I don't know what it's like in your office. But if they're working from home how do you know if they're working three hours and telling you it's eight or if they're working twenty four hours because they're sitting at home they might as well be working. How do you how you manage managing team. How do you find the right people that that are going to be working. Twenty four hours just like you. Yes so i mean you. Don't they don't know how much they're working but saw a couple things as we have our daily which is malls right. But i don't think ours is necessarily the current measurement with this offer. So i think as as the owner you know. Who's all putting what. I can candidates eight hours forty hours a putting the word. I'm okay. was that right. So we know at enter. They management Again with this guy didn't do much this is so and we we try not to micromanage because of another day. That's what kills morale Where you know. I think we all of our employees to do what they must do and they don't then you know there's good well. I'm glad that's working for you. So now you've inex- agency talk a little bit about what online marketing means right because it could be funnel building it could be google ads. It could be youtube videos. It could be building websites. There's a whole spectrum of quote unquote online marketing. What what do you do for your clients and next. What are you doing more aggressively today because of the environment. Yeah so. I guess a couple of things. There isn't a one size fit oxford. Saw know marketing program that works for any industry is what i was asking.

You don't try to go for this oftens just because it's about the same amount of work which is more headaches right so for us what we really focus on his prank drive revenue with positive role rolex and we do the game at so we run our google ads facebook ads. Email see all But we have a whole program in a strategy to sell more things online. Just because you know. I think the the the market the e com side of things the buyer from you know someone trying to get into the restaurant and we sort of had that down pat At the agency. That i worked at. We didn't have any system the processes in place and also won manager would be good at one area. The other manager would be torn horrible. You know and they will also do everything industry so there wasn't like a standard at the company for us Every account is basically the same we had. We take all of our learnings every single cat. We put them all together and usually our. I mean our plants. Every time we take over the by say anywhere from thirty percent one hundred percent in revenue were touches. And so that's amazing and you were able to find an industry that you're successful because if we look at e commerce and what that means i buy everything from from amazon pretty much Right and i live in phoenix. I get my food delivered from amazon in two hours to my door. I don't have to see anyone out. Forgot side. I don't have to do anything but the e commerce space.

"So i bet you someone's going to be paying thousand bucks ninety six. That's incredible and look at the whole thing about price because whether you're gonna call it you know appreciation or inflation the you know the fact is the price is going up. The value of the property is going up so in some cases. Honestly i mean you could make an argument that by the time you close you have already recovered. You're thirty thousand dollars gap that you think you're paying thirty grand right by the time he close there's going to be newcomb saying that that's okay and you can all remember what they're getting a mortgage the mortgage is going to be subject to the appraisal so you can't as long as there's a mortgage contingency in their the content the mortgage and the deal is contingent on the mortgage. You're always going to have the appraisal in there so price unless they waved your appraisal but the they can't waive the mortgage the they can wear the appraisal but the mortgage is going to have to be kitchen on the appraisal. And then if the house doesn't appraise in the mortgage doesn't happen. They're out because the mortgage contingency so that's out but again we go back to how many of these conversations are happening and what causes you guys. A lot of stress is having to have that conversation when something hits the fan. You talk about appraisals. You don't talk about inspections you don't talk about inflation. You don't talk about any of this until you're forced to and then you freak out and when you're stressed out believe me your buyers and sellers don't appreciate that but because they're relying on you to do a good job for focus on what they're paying rent assuming they're renting their current payment is or what their you know what they want their payment to be. That's really what their motivations and i have to say guys again with these low interest rates. Even if they are overpaying today a year from now with more inflation there could be in the money. Sure and so. I'm not really sure your over year with a lot of these markets and how many of you guys are losing deals because you're over negotiating because you think you're going to you're promising your buyers you're going to somehow get a better price other than what the house happens and also the buyers sometimes because they haven't been educated convinced the agent know let's try out coming in low either way the results the same. They don't end up the house that they want. So it's a script like for example. It's one of the things we teach in the coaching program..

Could Social Security Actually Run Out of Money?
"Ray Lucia show. And that is where I want to begin today. A brief discussion about social security starting with a brief history. And then we'll get into some of the other issues that I think are also important at least as it relates to your retirement is a social security and insurance policy or can it be treated as an investment? We'll cover that. Dr wait vows done a great job of this going back to two thousand fifteen he wrote a brief history of social security. There's no way I could do it Justice without stealing from his stuff. So I will. But he points out a couple of things that a lot of people neglect to realize and that is that social security benefits that are not just for retirees there's benefits for disabled workers. Spouses, young children of deceased or disables worker disabled workers spouses survivor benefits. It was not always that way. Remember, another original social security act of nineteen thirty five and it created retirement benefits. Only four the retired worker became eligible at age sixty five those ages have now changed to sixty six or sixty seven depending on how old you are. Right now. Younger millennials. Of course, we'll have to wait until they're sixty seven. My full retirement age is sixty six for social security purposes. Now in one thousand nine hundred eighty nine congress, then passed amendments to extend benefits to spouses and minor children. And this is what happens in politics. Once you start giving away benefits. The giveaways expand. I'm not suggesting that's bad. I'm just suggesting that it is a fact of life. And now, it's become a major problem. The nineteen seventy-five social security trustee report estimated that the old age survivors disability insurance trust funds would be depleted by nineteen Seventy-nine magin that we're in two thousand eighteen and it was a problem and seventy seven congress enacted amendments to deal with the impending financial problems. The amendments increase the payroll tax increase the amount of income eligible for the payroll tax and reduce the benefits slightly this fixed. The problem until the economic slowdown of the early nineteen eighties which meant the trust fund again faced a serious short term. Funding problems is starting to sound a tad bit familiar back then Alan Greenspan, who has you all know was the longest serving. Federal Reserve chairman. Headey commissioned to examine the problem in nineteen eighty three. The Greenspan commission called for and then congress subsequently passed into law a gradual increase in the full retirement age from sixty five to sixty seven as I just mentioned. They also increase the social security tax rates. And now, you know, where we stand today social security charges twelve point four percent. Medicare, of course, charges two point nine percent. Those numbers are split evenly between the employee and the employer. Meaning that if you are both yourself employed. You have a fifteen point three percent bogey on one hundred percent of your income up to nearly one hundred and thirty thousand dollars. Think about that one. You make one hundred and thirty grand any get clipped by fifteen percent of that ten percent will be thirteen thousand at another sixty five hundred dollars six thousand nineteen. Hey roundup. It's twenty thousand bucks in it increases every year with a little inflation. Bob. Think about a self employed one hundred and thirty thousand bucks twenty grand right off the top only half of which is income tax deductible. Is one of the reasons why we talk so often about incorporations and defined benefit plans. And all that stuff back. I've got an Email on that very subject. I'll go on it should come. As no surprise says Dr foul that funding shortages will happen again at some point. Social security. United States is meant to be a pay as you go. Meaning each generation of current workers pay for the benefits of current retirees three trends will make this task increasingly difficult despite the presence surpluses and those surpluses are dwindling. Sorry I had to get a slug of caffeine. I the baby boomer cohort is of unprecedented size and is currently reaching traditional retirement ages. Yeah, that's me. I should be retired. But I'm not gonna do it. Well, I'm sort of semi. Although it doesn't feel like semi. Although I, you know, I take a couple of days off here in a couple of days off there. But I'm still pretty much working. And that is the solution, by the way, keep working. Anyway, let me move on. Because this is interesting stuff. Second life spans are becoming longer. Meaning retiring baby boomers will have long retirements. That's right. Third fertility rates are decreasing during night of the baby boom women were having between three and a half and four kids on average during their lifetime. The thousand fifteen trustees report expects the long run for tilde rates, the United States to be just to know words, rubbing half as many babies, therefore that's half of many working stiffs paying for those of us that are theater, theoretically, getting a social security benefit. In two thousand there were four workers per retired beneficiary this had fallen to three and a half workers by twenty fourteen. And it's predicted that two point six contributors per retiree. By twenty thirty and other words for every retired person two and a half people have to go to work to pay for that person that is unsustainable with recipients of disability benefits added in they expect that number to drop the two point two percent for every working person that gets social security benefits. There will need to be two people working. Now.
