​

When does a hill become a mountain?

​

When does a stream become a river?

​

When does being rich become being wealthy?

​

I'd say, being wealthy brings a sense of security that merely being rich simply cannot guarantee.

​

Wealth gives you back your time.

​

Wealth comes from assets that generate income over time, not just a high income.

​

What are the main differences for you?

​

Don't be shy - hit reply!

ENTREPRENEUR-INVESTOR READS

​

🤑 How much do you need for a self-funded search? Balancing initial setup, search activities, and deal closure costs, it requires careful planning. Here's a good breakdown.

​

🤑 Private credit is set to keep playing a big role in helping businesses fund their growth and projects even with banks back in play. It's more flexible, can get creative, it's fast, reliable, and can be tailored to meet specific business needs.

​

🤑 Rent or buy? Renting your home can offer significant financial benefits and flexibility in certain scenarios, buying serves as a hedge against inflation, offering long-term stability. Here's how to crunch the numbers to determine the better option.

​

🤑 How to invest in oil. Renewable energy gets more attention, but the world will continue to use and demand oil for a long while. There's lots of ways to invest, from buying shares in big oil companies to investing in funds that track oil prices, each with its own level of risk and potential gain.

​

🤑 Owning a home might be out of reach for some people but investing in CRE could be a good way to build generational wealth. Commercial real estate is being seen as a viable path to financial empowerment and diversification.

​

🤑 Enjoy life - stay wealthy. Real happiness and smart money management come from keeping things simple and not chasing too much luxury. Enjoying life's simple pleasures while also being wise with our money are ancient lessons: happiness isn't about having everything but enjoying what matters most without going overboard.

​

🤑 Real estate moves are getting more attention for their smart and adaptable ways of boosting investment opportunities. Recaps help shape how money moves and grows and have been around for a long time. Recaps influence how deals are done across the board by finding ways around tricky tax issues and creating flexible investment plans that keep cash flowing.

​

🤑 ChatGPT's story is a testament to the silent revolution in machine learning. But how do LLMs really work? Like, in plain english, no math, no complex vernacular - how does it know what I'm going to say?

​

🤑 if you're interested in crowdfunding to raise capital, or looking to invest, know the difference between Reg A, Reg D and Reg CF. It's not just raise limits - each has it's own subset of rules.

You know that Google update happening right now?

​

We're not worried about it, not one little bit.

​

Why?

​

​Quality > Quantity.

​
Most sites that have dropped in rankings recently haven’t been penalized, they've simply had their links completely devalued.
​
Google’s going after guest post farms and hitting them with unnatural outbound link penalties.
​
In other words, most sites simply don’t deserve to rank anymore.

​

They don’t have the juice that you think they do.

​

But not our links. Our links are on REAL sites, with an average DR of 69.
​
These are sites that you actually read, like Hubspot, Canva, Shopify and more. Not some site that only exists to sell links.

​

Smash Digital builds future proof links.

​

Do you want your website to rank through the ages?

LIGHTNING ROUND

​

⚡️ From an innovative concept to a major financial player - the history of Bitcoin.

​

⚡️ Multi-channel? Omni-channel? Hmmm, how about an Opti-channel approach.

​

⚡️ Rich people don't cover their windows - they WANT you to see their not so subtle statement of class. (non paywall version)

​

⚡️ If you haven't seen Shy Kids latest video using Sora - you can see how this is going to be a film industry disruptor. Everything from big box office to small marketing production outfits beware:

​

shy kids @shykids 'air head' is one of the first short films made using #Sora by @OpenAI. the response so far has left us floating.🎈 12:37 PM • Mar 25, 2024 518 Retweets 2928 Likes Read 1074 replies
