Sitting at my desk, I just returned from a walk through the canyon near my house. The air was crisp and cold. It felt like Winter. But today is September 25th. Think about what that means, exactly. I know, from cycles and calendars that September 25th is Fall. Winter comes after fall. And I can feel the change. Instead of A/C, my house and truck now runs heat. I'm no longer in shorts and a T-shirt, I'm in pants and a sweatshirt. These seasonal changes are predictable, repeatable, and...

Hey! It's been a while since my last newsletter. That is because I was with the family on a 7-day Alaskan cruise! We don't take the family on many big trips like this. It was our first family cruise and our biggest vacation of the year. We also stayed in Seattle for a few days to see the sights. We saw icebergs, gold mines, and HUGE pods of whales. A picture of an iceberg we saw in the Endicott Arm A few of us got a little sea sick... I may have spent some unscheduled break time laying in bed...

I'm home with sick kids today, what joy. That's a fact of life for parents, and the more children you have (I have 4) the more sickness gets spread around. Stay with me, this connects to my wealth strategy. See, I found myself often at home, either with sick kids, or on holiday, or (unfortunately) on furlough. Last year, the Federal Govenment set a *NEW RECORD* 🍄 (if you heard that in Mario-Kart language, like me, we can get along just fine) for the longest furlough in history: 43 days. I...

Did you know that stocks represent the most accessible route to passive income for the majority of people? It's simple. Open your brokerage account. Deposit funds. Buy a stock. Now you're earning income passively. Even if the company doesn't pay a dividend, you're still earning income if the company is turning a profit, otherwise referred to as cash-flowing. The difference is that a company which does not pay a dividend is reinvesting that cash flow back into the business. This is effectively...

Everyone that buys stocks needs to be paying attention to the story around Oracle $ORCL right now. Being successful at investing is equal parts being right and avoiding being wrong. Stock investing is all about probabilities, valuations, and luck. I can't help you with the luck part. But I have the tools for everything else. And this is the PERFECT case to show you why. Social media is abuzz about the "collapse" of $ORCL stock price. Here's a few examples: Aditya R @AdityaInvests90 $ORCL...

It's hot. The air smells a hint of smoke. The world cup is playing in the background, in Spanish, because I don't pay for TV. I'm working at my desk, writing content for my website and doing keyword research on a 7-day trial of SEMRush. My new sand hourglass is draining away. The kids are yelling at each other. I yell back. There are wildfires all over the region I live. Two days ago, a wildfire started in the canyon near my house. A shed was lost, and homes nearly caught on fire. I took the...

Every employee should have a newsletter. Full stop. Hear me out. Those like me that have chosen the employment route as our primary income source, opposed to entreprenuership, are most limited in time. We don't have a lot of extra time to make more money. Running a newsletter is the best way to solve that problem. Here's why: Every employee has something great that they do. That could be a hobby, a life experience, a talent, or something related to their job. That thing that you do well can...

The intern that almost never was I've got a long, incredible story to share with you today, so I'm going to jump right in. Enjoy! Share this with a friend The intern that almost never was. This story is long but contains incredible lessons about networking, talent management, and the behind-the-scenes of hiring. On Monday, I will onboard one of our interns into a permanent position. This seemingly mundane event almost never happened, at no fault of the intern or mine. Three years ago, this...

Hey there! 👋 I hope this summer is treating you well. I just returned from a 4-day camping trip with the family in the Deschutes National Forest. We recorded 4 tantrums, 3 ticks, 2 minor injuries, and DOZENS of mosquito bites. 🦟 I came home to a full email inbox. It took a few hours to work through it, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that I sold 2 domain names while I was away. That is the power of passive income from assets. Today, I'm going to share with you how I made those domain...
