9 Suggestions for making money and maximizing joy as an entrepreneur based on my experience building and buying companies:

1. Think small to improve chance of success and enjoyment. Replace focus on large total addressable market with minimum viable market

@thesamparr @HamptonFounders —the 0.75 percent fee of assets under management they pay their money manager. On 5M that’s 37.5K a year. But it’s hard to spot this expense
—fees on their index funds
—their home upkeep / repairs
—etc

[Ryan Begelman @RyanBegelman]

@thesamparr @HamptonFounders They likely miss
—their many lumpy expenses like property taxes, paying once a year for their tax return, that one big vet bill every other year, the basement flooding, vacations, etc
—they don’t consider the personal expenses they run through their business like their admin

@kallawavy @ShaanVP All I’ve done the past two years almost is coach full time. I have a full roster of 16 clients but I may be able to take on a new client now or soon. If you’re interested in discussing DM me. Only half the help I give is snake oil…lol

@bencasnocha @montgomery_jd @alexisohanian Which cold plunge did you decide on and why? I’ve been debating Renu, Plunge, Morozko Forge, and Cold Tub

@volodarik @joelshansen I’m executive and life coaching these days. Have 19 clients at the moment mostly CEOs and founders but also those in transition and other executives.

[Ryan Begelman @RyanBegelman]

@cjkmccaffrey @benton_moss Love that. There’s so much to it. I’ve been practicing daily for over 15 years or so and even in the past few months I’ve made new and profound discoveries. Among other things exploring what is it that seems to be doing the “noticing” is rich with insights. What observes thoughts

@theSamParr @whtny_mh @IndieHackers @edcatmull @ShaanVP @stephsmithio Thanks.

@mattwilsontv I was with Summkt then. Always been with summit since the start. Always fun to find OG Summiters

[Ryan Begelman @RyanBegelman]

@greg___m @myfirstmilpod @ShaanVP @theSamParr I wanna know how it went to!

[Ryan Begelman @RyanBegelman]

@businessbarista Hahaha love video texts. Often suggesting my coaching clients go see people in person socially distanced too.

@damn_ethan @Bitclout_ @austin_rief @theSamParr @TheHustle @MorningBrew Why’s that? It’s been so fun messing with it. Reconnected with a bunch of friends because of it. If it makes money all the better.

[The Hustle @TheHustle]

Twitter personalities are blowing up feeds with Bitclout links.

Market caps are soaring. So are the investments.

If you're going to invest, you need a strategy.

Here are @RyanBegelman's 2 main Bitclout investment strategies:

[Ryan Begelman @RyanBegelman]

I talk on today’s episode of @myfirstmilpod about my recent obsession with @Bitclout_, the crypto social network where you bet on individual personalities like stocks, my strategy for which investment areas to focus on, and more. https://t.co/LwA7rM63e2

@cjkmccaffrey @myfirstmilpod Thanks glad it helped

[Ryan Begelman @RyanBegelman]

And once I do I feel so much better.

[Ryan Begelman @RyanBegelman]

In every situation there's two choices:
1) Full acceptance or
2) Taking action

Often, I begin in the gray zone in between these two feeling anxious or frustrated. And then I notice that's happening, and I remind myself to fully accept the situation or take action.

“Entrepreneurship should give you time-freedom and alleviate financial anxieties. You’re trying to solve for both your well-being and real wealth.”

Learnt a lot from a @RyanBegelman interview on @APompliano’s podcast. Summarized it at https://t.co/ir3WXKssT0

[Ryan Begelman @RyanBegelman]

@rishdotblog @APompliano Love this.

@markfbonner @frantzfries @austin_rief @Jason @web @axios @JimVandeHei @Bisnow I wouldn’t suggest others think they can build profitable local newsletters. Bisnow likely isn’t profitable after overhead on ads alone and most verticals we tried failed. I doubt local news with ads alone works. I’d just hate for others to waste their time.
