Sep 30 excited to watch this one. sam sat down with the guy who wrote "unreasonable hospitality" He owns eleven madison park, the restaurant that inspired the Forks episode on the Bear, one of my favorite TV episodes of all time. As a founder, stealing from other, unrelated industries is a huge hack. In internet businesses, we suck at hospitality. So if you go from a 2 to a 5, you're better than everyone else. 212 8 22 41.2k 411 .

Jul 22 "There's riches in niches" My brother in law has built a $1B+ real estate portfolio focusing on grocery-anchored shopping centers. he doesn't really do podcasts, but I convinced him to do one explaining how he: - made his first million as a broker - lost it all on a bad deal - starting over, building a 82-gym chain - making $3M on his first deal using a purchase option - compounding that into $1B+ over 10 years 325 12 24 41.8k 421 .

Mar 03 Abigayle (17 yr) - grows flowers, sells them Last year: $15k revenue, $7-8k profit This year, aiming for $30k Our advice: instead of selling to schools for fundraisers, can you get real distribution?

Jan 10 one trend I’ve noticed after doing podcasts with 100+ super successful guests… “side quests” example: Sheel in this podcast talks about: 1. quit his job to live in india for a year on $1/day budget 2. hacked google ads to get uber credits 3. flew to china on a whim to find a factory that would make iphone headphones 4. became a food delivery driver as due diligence, and used that insight to start a $100M+ food delivery startup 292 17 26 33.9k 434 .
