@realEstateTrent I was quoted $2,000 for one in Indiana as well. It’s not just the NY & Cali numbers

Today is my Grandparent’s 65th wedding anniversary.

65 years, 3 children, 9 grandchildren, 9 (soon to be 11) great-grandchildren.

Like they do every Sunday, they arrived early to teach Sunday School at the small church my Grandfather grew up in.

So thankful.

We'll do whatever it takes to fix K-12 education — including changing state laws.

There are now 50,000+ new locations where microschools can open across Florida.

If we’re going to fix our K-12 education system, we need to launch 1,000’s of new schools.

Let's get to work.

If you can’t do business with people of all languages and ethnicities, the strip mall business is not for you.

Today’s guest, @delk, is on a mission to build a company that creates more ambitious students who can think for themselves.

His model empowers the top 1% of teachers to leave the traditional system and start micro-schools in their communities.

Ryan is the CEO and Founder of Primer — a platform that helps teachers launch micro-schools in their communities. He’s spent the last decade building tech companies (like Square, Gumroad, and Omni) and was homeschooled K - 8th grade, which served as the early inspiration for Primer.

@delk is building something special with @Primer. The episode is worth the listen. Proud cousin

[Chris Powers @fortworthchris]

Attracting and hiring UNDISCOVERED talent is a characteristic of the world’s best founders.

Tomorrow’s guest, @delk, walks us through how he identifies and builds up talent that most overlook.

[Chris Powers @fortworthchris]

Sat down with my man @delk yesterday.

He’s tackling one of our countries biggest opportunities - educating our children through empowering the best teachers in the country to seamlessly start micro schools.

“We take kids seriously.”

[Jacob Delk @JacobDelk5]

@TopherNOW I’ve found Claude to be better for analyzing legal documents. ChatGPT for generative stuff and custom GPTs

[Jacob Delk @JacobDelk5]

@TheCaubleGroup @micahlacher Incredible project and purpose. Always an inspiring story @micahlacher

[Tyler Cauble @TheCaubleGroup]

If you haven’t met @micahlacher or heard the story behind The Russell, you’re missing out. They’re bringing in quite a bit of cash flow and 100% of profits go to charity.

@fortworthchris @realEstateTrent Flipping v. Long term holds

7) Buy and Hold

Charlie was very surprised I don’t hold strip malls forever.

I talked about how our deals are small, and that once we add the value there is more downside than upside.

He told me to find a way to make buy and hold work.

[Jacob Delk @JacobDelk5]

@TopherNOW Would love to see it and compare what we are using now
