Hot take: There will be 0 interest rate cuts this year with the potential for at least 1 increase.
Anyone have experience in the rolloff dumpster industry? Would love to hear people's thoughts or connect live.
Fact: Not much beats frying eggs and watching an episode of Gunsmoke on a Saturday morning.
Any other WeWork tenants get their bankruptcy filing in the mail this week? I about shit a brick when I saw an envelope from K&E addressed to our legal entity. Turns out our security deposit is included in the filing. Super fun stuff. Not sure how deposits are treated in a BK.

Be a cowboy, not a clown. Should've Been a Cowboy is our family song. Too many memories as a kid driving around in my dad's truck with Toby on the radio. A true American. RIP buddy.

To my commercial and residential cleaning friends, are there any products you use that are challenging to find at your supply house or through your typical supplier (i.e., anything you have to buy one-off)?
Is there a place where you can download decent quality LBO modeling and quantitate diligence templates for free? Might launch one to help others if something like this doesn't exist.
You want to spend $15k cash on a car. What do you buy? A used Lexus GX or LX 470 is the correct answer. Change my mind.
Why is everyone afraid to pick up the phone and call people as part of cold outreach? Deal flow a little slow this Monday? Get on Data Axle (it's free for tons of people through your local library), pull a list of 100 companies, and dial for some dollars.
Make this your motto. I watch this every morning.
Who are the folks out here paying 4.0x for non-recurring (or even reoccurring) businesses doing ~$700k in FYE EBITDA (2022) with 70% growth vs. the prior year and no real explanation as to how that growth is sustainable? What am I missing?
The @search_invest 2023 Self-funded Search Study is now available! You can download the report from the SIG website and/or using the link in my bio This 72-page report includes countless insights into the self-funded search process and buying your own business
We're in a WeWork. It's awesome. Just renewed our 6-month contract at a ~25% discount to the prior contract and got standing desks (probably a standard offering, but hey, we'll take it). I'd like to think we are just stud negotiators but sounds like our WeWork boys need the $.
Your number of heroes/idols starts to drop off as you get older. @kblock43 was one of the few I still looked up to. Few people like him in this day and age. Always hustling, pushing the limit. Tomorrow is never given. Drive it like you stole it.
Apparently this needs to be said: When reviewing YTD financials for a biz with cash books, use historical SG&A spend to inform YE SG&A proj "EBITDA margins are proj to 2x based on YTD 1H results!"- na you just forgot $500k of annual cash expenses that hit in the 2H bud
I'm sorry, when did it become cool for brokers TRYING TO SELL A COMPANY to be dicks to potential BUYERS one minute into an intro call? Frustrating way to start off a Monday. Really just applies to anyone. Be nice folks. The world has enough assholes.
Numbers matter in the LBO world. Love a deal but it doesn't cash flow? Try more structures. Still doesn't cash flow? Walk. Spend time on the front end (i.e., pre LOI) with basic modeling to save you a ton of time, money, and frustration later on.
No one makes improv sound scripted like Joe Pesci. In "GoodFellas", Ray Liotta said, Pesci looks at mom's painting and says, "'One dog goes one way, and the other dog goes the other way.' .. I don't know where the f**k that came from." Born today in 1943

@SMB_Attorney They can raise rates all they want. So long as our government keeps printing new debt then inflation won’t come down. Fix the problem in Washington and you solve the inflation issue.
@yetanothrsearch Could you do an equity roll or earn out of someone to try and bridge the gap? If not, just be honest. “That price doesn’t work for me, but if earnings come up by Y%, I’d be willing to pay that price, or if the seller has a change of heart, let me know.”
