This is awesome.
You’re seeing in real time why rollups are so hard and, often, don’t work. The point of the rollup is to a) capture value through synergies / efficiencies, and b) multiple arbitrage on exit. When the consolidators can’t get deals done due to financing constraints, the economy,…
I've seen a lot of the 🌍 in my life. The western states of the USA are still top of my list. Give me the Rockies, the Sierras, the Cascades, Yellowstone, the amazing Pacific Coast - from Mexico to Canada. God's country.
Damn, this is EXACTLY the content Twitter needs right now.
So this just happened. Woke up w a bad allergic reaction to something. A random neighbor drove me to the hospital. Fun start to the day. Thankful for kind people and Google Translate…
ByteDance saying they would rather shutter TikTok than sell it implies, at least to me, they don’t want potential buyers seeing how data is actually being managed. 🤷♂️
Live look at Boomer business owners googling “dividend recap” after reading Biden’s cap gains proposal.

Unrealized cap gains ONLY APPLIES to UHNW w/ $100mm+ of assets. Still dumb, won't pass, and is a trial balloon for a broader program that will try to snag a much bigger % of taxpayers. Get used to it. "Deficits don't matter" and MMM b/s is dead. 👆 taxes and 👇 spending ahead.

Two kinds of people in the world. Those who are willing and able to eat glass running a small business. Those who are not.
Ginger ale is the mother of all carbonated beverages. If you disagree, you’re wrong, have no taste, and should be ashamed.
I once had a Managing Director leave a going-private investment memo on the 5th Avenue bus. A member of the deal team got a phone call from some rando who picked it up. "Hey, I have this document about Project Gator that you may want to get back..."

Our office away from the office today. Finalizing our work on a major curriculum revamp. Ten hours yesterday, more than ten today. Grateful for all of the effort this amazing team is putting in to make Watershed great. 🙏
Teach your team that a dollar spent / saved is NOT worth a dollar. If your business trades at 7x EBITDA, $1,000 of savings is worth $7,000 of enterprise value. Don’t assume they understand this. Help them. Teach them. Make sure that they do. 💵💵💵

Garage sales are such waste of time. Just had one for 2 hours and sold $50 bucks worth of crap. Better to give away to charity or goodwill for a tax write off.

This 12 year old kid in the neighborhood charges $50 to wash & clean the inside of cars. I told him it sounded a bit steep. Turns out he's booked out a month. He does 6 cars a day, 3 days a week = $3600 a month. At 12 years old! Haha the kid did alright.
