I had a great interview with David Shriner-Cahn about mastermind groups.
I know several of you have seen my videos over the years talking about the value I find in my own group.
In this podcast, David and I share our insights into how to create a mastermind and we also tell you how you can work with us and learn to build your own mastermind group to enhance your business.
I got a great piece of feedback the other day on
YouTube.
Wayne tells me that ‘any idiot’ can put a deal
together to buy a business without using their own money otherwise ‘leveraged
buy outs’ would not exist.
This week I’ll explain to you what a leveraged buy out
is, how it works, and we’ll see if a person with no money could actually pull
it off.
I know that you’re all anxious to find out if you’d be
an idiot under Wayne’s definition.

Ian has an opportunity to lend money to a
not-for-profit community group. Is this
a good idea and what about security, foreclosure, etc?
I’ve had the chance to be involved with a few
situations which involved community groups borrowing money, some worked out ok,
some did not.
Direct lending can create a great opportunity for
returns, but only if you’re prepared for all the things that could go wrong and
you’ve prepared yourself properly.

experiences with community groups borrowing money: https://youtu.be/_OYrCpPW004

When I had a conversation with the owner of a small
manufacturer, I was reminded why I often advise businesses to lease property
instead of owning. It gives you more
flexibility.
This guy had a problem with zoning and needed help so
he could mortgage the building and get operating capital.
My red flags went up and within a few questions I had
identified the real problem… one he was working hard to avoid.
As one of my favourite authors, Ayn Rand, once said,
‘you can ignore reality, but you can’t ignore the consequences of ignoring
reality.’

so concerned about zoning that he forgot why he was in business: https://youtu.be/lwORvoJ_xeY

A YouTube viewer asked me, ‘…when my banker says that
the business is overpriced and the debt-service coverage ratio doesn’t work,
what does it mean and should I just try other banks?’
Basically, bankers are concerned that there is enough
cash left after expenses to make their loan payments... plus a little extra for
unforeseen expenses. Pretty good idea, eh?
So how can an owner ask so much for a business that
there isn’t even enough cash to make the loan payments? I’ve seen it happen
over and over and over and over and over again.
Watch and see how this happens and why you need to
understand how to spot these bad deals before they waste a bunch of your time
and your bankers.

waste a bunch of your time and money on crappy deals. Learn more
