@khzny Eliminate GST from new developments - just flowing back to CMHC in fees now.

It’s still cheap debt (to get 95% debt) in the Capital stack.

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

Do I even want to spend one hour doing this?
Is this goal something I want to pursue?

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

It’s not about the money. It’s about the goal? What do I want?
What do I want my brand to be?
Personal freedom - this is the key.

True wealth is the one you turned down. Heard this on @ChrisWillx recent podcast with mark Manson

@youneedbags @myfirstmilpod @ShaanVP @thesamparr Great interview Dan. Unsexy business, good margins and solid brand. Good on you!

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

@seandsweeney I started listening to Lewis Howes school of greatness. He has some good interviews worth listening to.

@khzny Good snow? Fernie?

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

@khzny Nice! For sale or rental?

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

@fortworthchris We are lucky - 2 years for most of our projects. 4-5 years would be too much risk for me to take on!

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

@khzny For the lease up? What tenants see?

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

@thesamparr @syedbalkhi Top 3 for sure.

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

@vannman26 Sounds about right. It’s a tight margin biz - not for me

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

@fortworthchris The power of association!

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

@thesamparr I’ve been using his breathing app for about 5 years daily. Maybe ask him what he does to improve his fitness, breathing.

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

@FoundersPodcast Love that story … have experienced that (not to that level). No value add -> still required to 💰

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

@thesamparr The 3 books was great. If you did another solo- would like to hear more about your workout schedule/diet. The specifics you shared on what you eat every day was helpful. That 300 cals a day could make such a difference surprised me

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

@FoundersPodcast Look fwd to learning more about Mr. Nolan

[Shane Melanson @ShaneMelanson20]

@fortworthchris @emilyleldridge How do you decide who to let invest in your deals? Before accepting outsode capital- what do you look for and how do you vet them? That would be very interesting to me.

@jeremygiffon Some of the old timers I deal with are pretty cagey. They ask more questions and share very little. The more I talk- the more they see how little I know.
