@BlakeTOliver I don’t see the issue with companies having employees return to the office. The company isn’t forcing the people to stay. If your that miserable working in an office, find a new job.

@GuyTalksFinance And the $150k after taxes means you need to have a salary of like $230k. So to buy a $450k home, you need to be in the top like 3% of earners. 🤣.

@Budgetdog_ If I held long term what I was trading even 5 years ago I would have been much better off. Stocks I was trading from $9 to $12 are all $100+ now 😂.

@LoganChierotti Have to disagree with the “no gym” and “terrible diet”. No reason you can’t eat healthy and get a 30 minute work out in while “grinding”.

@nebraskabryce Nice! . One of my main 2024 goals is to cut back on drinking. The plan is to only drink if I’m actually celebrating an accomplishment.

I’m a big soccer fan and all, but can we talk about the blatant cries from the players when they get fouled?. How do you get hit in the chest and end up holding your mouth?.

@HealthcareREguy CEO’s. Provide them value and they will talk to you. Give them a reason to increase revenue and cut expenses and they will be your best friend. That’s the game.

@Budgetdog_ Terrible for the group that got away not paying the student loans at all. They have been graduated since COVID and have become accustomed to a life without these monthly payments. Now they need to totally readjust. Should be interesting to say the least.

This is a major problem in SMBs. Small business owners fail to plan their exit strategically. This leads to a lack of control in exit option. Plan accordingly and be ready for the exit you want.
Private equity thinks about what an exit should look like every day of their hold period. Owner / operators don’t think about it for years until they’re ready to exit.

Nothing feels better than positive client feed back. The client was satisfied with his business valuation report and is now ready to discuss value enhancement. 💪

@intocryptoverse With the SEC saying all crypto is a security except BTC, I think we could see a breakout in BTC while all others collapse.

@PathwayToFI Billionaire who didn’t enjoy it. The billionaire who doesn’t enjoy it should have sold out at “millions”. I’d rather be able to provide for everyone in my life and deal with struggles because I don’t believe life is about avoiding struggles. It’s not about money. It’s about.

@realEstateTrent Gotta love a good fancy title. Like being a VP at many banks. Sounds nice, but you are probably not too high up in the organization.

What makes valuing a private company more difficult than valuing a public company?. 1. The absence of market values . 2. Different accounting standards . 3. Restricted access to detailed financial data and disclosures.

Caution in SMB valuation: . Relying solely on market multiples might be misleading. Consider the unique aspects of small businesses, as they often defy conventional metrics. A balanced approach is crucial for accurate assessments. #BusinessValuation #SMB.

Poor financial records will ruin your deal.
The most expensive mistake an SMB owner can make:. Not having clear financial records. I'll die on this hill.

@JustAnotherPM If your a product manager but are more focused on working with devs, also be able to understand the sales and marketing. If your a product manager more focused on marketing, understand product ideation and development, etc. The more you learn and understand the more you grow.
