Episode 779: Why Networking Feels Gross (And What Works Instead)

<p >“Meet one new person a day.”<br> Cool advice. One problem. Where are these people hiding?</p> <p >Here’s the truth most real estate agents miss. You’re not supposed to hunt for prospects. You’re supposed to show up where they already are. Prospecting isn’t about awkward networking, forced small talk, or commission breath. It’s about consistency, value, and being a decent human repeatedly.</p> <p >In this episode of Daily Real Estate, I will show you how I’ve built listings, referrals, and long-term relationships by integrating business into real life.

History of Hyperinflation

History of Hyperinflation

<p>On the latest episode of Minor Issues, Mark Thornton revisits the history—and present risk—of hyperinflation. Mark explains the threshold that defines hyperinflation, why measuring prices under chaos is hard (yet still revealing), and how the social damage mirrors war: savings vaporize, capital is destroyed, and civic trust collapses. He closes with practical takeaways: why gold and silver often move first as “fire alarms” and why studying past episodes builds the psychological and analytical readiness to face low-probability, high-impact events.</p><p >"The Road to Hyperinflation" (Minor Issues, Episode 136): https://mises.org/MI_136</p><p >"The Gold-Silver Ratio" (Minor Is...

He reflects on defining trades in oil, nickel, and agriculture, the limits of volatility targeting, and the discipline required to survive violent squeezes.

GM94: When Capitalism Reboots and Crashes Again ft. Mark Blyth

<p>As the long era of neoliberal certainty frays, Mark Blyth argues that we are drifting back toward a 19th century world of rival blocs, imperial habits and dangerous illusions. In this conversation, he traces how repeated “software crashes” of capitalism produced inflation, austerity, populism and now a return to industrial policy and great power confrontation. He connects deficits, demographics, migration, and housing with the lived reality of stagnant wages and rising prices. Along the way, he questions central bank mythology, challenges deficit obsession, and asks whether politics can adapt before events force a far harsher reset.</p><p>-----</p><p...

Casekoo began with a "napkin sketch" born from the frustration of a phone constantly falling over. CEO Ralph explains that the brand maintains this mindset by focusing on "micro-frustrations"—small daily hurdles in tech usage that larger manufacturers ignore. By scaling this problem-solving approach to millions of users, Casekoo ensures every design iteration serves a functional purpose.<br /><br /> How does the Casekoo Magic Stand Pro achieve 360-degree versatility?<br /><br /> The engineering "Eureka moment" for the Magic Stand Pro was the integration of a 360-degree titanium spin stand.

As globalization recedes and the world fractures into spheres of influence, Rich argues this isn’t just a political story - it’s a structural shift that favors trend following.

GM93: The Calm Before a Systemic Reckoning ft. William White

<p>William White returns to assess a world edging closer to systemic stress.

From de-globalization and demographic decline to energy constraints and fragile supply chains, the conversation traces how rising costs collide with record public and private leverage. White warns that policy makers are trapped between inflationary pressures and debt sustainability, with no clean exit in sight. The discussion closes on AI, currency fragmentation, and the uncomfortable possibility...

SI380: Dispersion Is the Story This Year (Group Conversation Part 1)

<p>Niels is joined by all 9 amazing co-hosts, to discuss a year that refused to behave. In part one of the annual "roundtable", Niels and the group map why 2025 produced such striking dispersion across trend followers. They revisit the Liberation Day shock and the uncomfortable truth it exposed: results often came down to unglamorous choices like market selection, time horizon, and how quickly risk is resized after clustered volatility and sharp reversals. The conversation then widens to a structural theme: the rapid growth of strategies investors hope will sit outside stocks and bonds, from managed futures and multi strats to...

Longer, Higher for Longer

Longer, Higher for Longer

<p>Mark Thornton argues that interest is a core price that coordinates time, investment, and growth, and that the Federal Reserve has turned it into an administered number.

Keep that 2% Covid-era mortgage, expect poor long-bond returns and lower real equity performance, and look for commodities to fare relatively better. Gold’s surge shows some investors already see the shift.</p><p>Be sure to follow Minor Issues at https://Mises.org/MinorIssues</p>
