I’m going to Buenos Aires on Wednesday. I’ll be there for a month. I feel a little weird about it. Maybe it is the unknown. I checked my LinkedIn, and I’ve been off work for 1 yr. I’ve been telling myself I’ll go back after Buenos Aires. But I have no desire. If I didn’t want a family, I don’t think I would ever go back to work.
Last week I talked about some dating Ls I took. I almost let them bother me. But then I was reminded of a great Jim Rohn speech. He says the day the Christian Church started, a magnificent sermon was preached. The sermon was given to a large crowd of people. When the sermon was finished, there was a variety of reactions. Some people were perplexed. The sermon was very simple and straightforward. Why were they perplexed? There’s a simple explanation. They are the perplexed. It doesn’t matter who is preaching. Some that heard the presentation mocked and laughed. It was a sincere presentation. So why would they mock and laugh? The explanation is obvious. They are the mockers and the laughers. What else would they do? Rohn says, “I used to try and straighten all that out. They shouldn’t do that! I used to be naive, and say liars shouldn’t lie. Well, of course they should! They are the liars!” Some that heard the presentation believed. Those are the people the presenter was looking for. The believers. Forget about spending time and effort on the flakes. They are going to flake. That is just what they do. Focus on the believers.
My beef of the week is the celebrity roast. They are the least funny things I’ve ever seen. The Roast of Tom Brady is #1 on Netflix right now. Sometimes I feel like I live in an alternate universe. To be fair, I’ve only seen one joke from the roast. Nikki Glaser says, “Tom also lost $30 million in crypto. Tom, how did you fall for that? I mean, even Gronk was like, “Me know that not real money.” It’s funny, because Gronk is supposed to be dumb. 3.5 million views on YouTube for that. If the joke was off the dome, I would let it slide. But it wasn’t. All the jokes are scripted.
Let’s get to it:

I’ve heavily considered getting a pool. My realtor told me a pool could increase my home’s value $30-50k. I rented some dude’s pool to throw a pool party last summer. It was pretty expensive. This guy could clear $20k+ per month during the summer months. I wrote more about it here.

Banning AirBNB is lame. They make travel easier and more interesting. I’ve never put my house on AirBNB, but I did a loan for a guy’s AirBNB in Big Bear. He had a sweet cabin on the lake. He pulled in $100k per yr on that AirBNB. I’ve heard AirBNB income has gotten crushed across the board, but $100k per yr is pretty nice.

How do you even get to this place? This would make a cool AirBNB. How are they going to ban it, if it is in the middle of the ocean?
