Yup, I’m calling it… the year of the Angel Investor… now that’s my kind of super intelligence. Matching the need for non-bank housing with non-Wall Street retirement solutions in a way that makes individuals and communities more economically resilient.
The first Property & Paper Live of the year was held on January 6th, and in my opening monologue, I described a bit about my vision and perspective on a year that I think will be absolutely transformational.
A lot is going to happen between now and New Year’s Day, 2027. Shoot, a lot has already happened!!
Big headlines out there, but oddly, almost none about the all time highs for precious metals.
Gold over $5,000, silver sitting at $110 as I write…
A signal of the death of the old financial system. I heard someone say that for every dollar that silver rises, the big short players (many of our big banks) lose something like $200 – $250 million dollars.
Over the next couple of years, if you don’t have hard assets and the cash flow to protect them, it’s going to be a tough row to hoe.
Inflation is melting the value of cash savings. Getting a 2nd or 3rd job may not be enough to keep up.
- My house isn’t worth double because I worked harder.
- The silver I bought at $20 isn’t worth $100 because I worked smarter.
- The Bitcoin I bought at $3K isn’t worth $88K because I picked up a side hustle.
It all has to do with monetary policy. The more money they print, the less valuable it becomes. Hard assets aren’t worth more. Fiat is worth less.
So, intelligent positioning has to be a part of your financial plan. Your money needs to work harder than you do.
Obviously real estate and notes secured by real estate are the staple of my business, but we can’t afford to miss strategic opportunities to put ourselves in the way of ‘progress’…
Sometimes you buy land, ‘land bank,’ in the path of development, knowing at some point you’ll be rewarded.
Anyhow, back to PPL…
David was our star of the show and happily shared about the 3 note deals he has done recently, as well as a private loan. If David can do it, so can you.
In the second half, Kennesha brought up a scenario where she is helping a friend out of a note deal that went sideways.
Luckily for her friend, Kennesha is going to make lemonade out of those lemons. Good story, and I think she got some great support from all of us on the call. She’s a CA Realtor, NMLS & hair dresser!!
