أحدث حلقة 🔗

After we sold our first business, Brandon and I finally had the money to put 20% down on our first home. What we didn’t have was permission. Our new business (the current one) was in a totally different industry ... and to a bank, that made our income brand new. It didn’t matter what was in the acc…

In 7th grade, I got into an argument with a classmate about which Brady Bunch daughter was the oldest. I said Jan. They pointed out that Jan was the one always saying, “Marcia, Marcia, Marcia.” I didn’t budge. It was Marcia. I’ve never admitted that out loud until now. (To that classmate, whoever y…

The Mission Trap (Episode 25)

In May 2016, a couple of months after our first business turned five, I spoke to a class at a local university. I opened with a question. How many of you have been to a rally, an interest meeting, or a panel hosted by a nonprofit? Most of the hands went up. Then I told them what I’d noticed at almo…

It Agreed With Me (Episode 24)

“No, let’s plan around 10%. That’s what I’m going to assume.” I typed that into ChatGPT. I was preparing for a presentation to real estate agents and I’d asked whether investing $2,000 a month for 15 years at a 10% return would let a hypothetical agent retire on $8,000 a month. Its first answer was…
If you had $4 million in assets, no debt, and $70,000 a year of truly passive income, would you feel financially free? Maybe not as much as you’d think. ... So I’m asking you: what decision have you been making because money told you to... that you’d make differently if the Benjamins didn’t get a v…
I was 21 the first time I was told I talked too much for how young I was. Then, 22 the second time. Two different leaders, two different rooms, months apart. Both said almost the exact same sentence. I found out later they’d talked about me in between ... the first had used that exact phrase with t…
I wanted to be president of the United States. Not in the vague, anything’s-possible way kids get coached into saying ... I actually believed it, the way you believe things before anyone’s gotten around to telling you no. I’m still that kid some years. Brandon and I set genuinely lofty goals every …
Most people build a safety net for one kind of phone call: the lawsuit, the client who walks, the equipment that dies on a Tuesday. That’s not wrong ... it’s just half the story. A reserve funded above the bare minimum isn’t only defense. It’s optionality. It’s what lets you say yes to the good pho…
We were a small coffee shop making less than a thousand dollars a day, some days a lot less. Compared to Starbucks, we sucked. That wasn’t a throwaway line. It was actually what we told our team, out loud, at our third anniversary staff dinner. We handed out awards, ate cake, and then Brandon said …

Even the Match Is a Bet

I’m not much of a bettor. As a kid, I made small bets and lost almost every one, until I just stopped making them. I remember losing one and having to walk about a mile over it. Nothing terrible ever came from any bet I lost. I just don’t like giving something up when I have no real control over ho…
