Best way to make more $$, keep more of what you make.

If you own a property and pay taxes on it... You're gonna wanna read this bad boy. (earmuffs govt)

How to apply for and get agricultural tax credits by selling $1500 plants a year?
If you own a home in Texas let's say it's worth $1M.
You're paying almost $20k a year in property taxes. Yikes.

So when my bud Cody told me I'm an idiot and forgot something I listened....

He said you could get 25-75% off your tax bill by selling some leafy greens...
Since Cody is no slouch - he runs multiple 7 fig businesses while hunting something like 200 days a year, my ears perked.

HE HAS IT FIGURED THE F OUT.

*then let us know what we missed* @baldridgecpa since you're the man on taxes!
So here's how I see it:
- You can do this w/ animals but ya know... those are work
- For a nursery you sell $1500 worth of plants a year to get the credit
- Aka not much to turn liability = asset
- could be a whole post on layering rev streams & tax credits on your casa
How Cody's playing it:
- Aspens in Montana (his home) sell for $400
- In Oregon sell for $100
- See if shipping costs/allowances are reasonable
- Then get pre-orders for trees in MT
- Ship when order big enough
- 300% arbitrage
- & write off his VERY large ranch property
How I'm going to play it?
- we're building a tiny house on 1 property
- I'm gonna add a tiny greenhouse ($600 on amazon)
- I inked a deal w/ my mom in law, she's the distributor
- started an etsy shop, she's gonna sell sucky's to the masses
- We need a name - ideas??
Long story short if I can make $20k from growing plants I now pay hundreds for a month... just call me Farmer Sanchez.
Also, we're dropping a thread a day for the next 30 days (generally on cash-flowing business ideas) so make sure to SMASH that follow button so you don't miss ANY of these

If you want to acquire a million-dollar company, you don’t need to have millions.

Here’s how to buy a business that pays for itself (9 negotiation tips for seller financing):
First up:

What IS seller financing?

Doesn’t sound so nice as a seller… why am I paying for YOU to own my business?

That’s why I sometimes call it “self-liquidating acquisitions.”

Here’s how it works:
Instead of paying cash or using loans...

You agree to pay the seller back over time directly using the profits of the business.

Why would you want to do such a thing?

If you don’t understand acquisitions, you’ll never be truly wealthy.

Here’s what you need to know about how the rich buy businesses:
Think of any 3 rich people.

They likely have 1 thing in common.

They own. Often, they own companies.

The average person doesn't understand this about wealth. I love how Sam Altman put it: Image
The rich buy ownership in big businesses.

And they don't bother mentioning that people like you can do the exact same thing with cashflowing small businesses...

When you move from a worker to the leader, you have to change everything.

What no one tells you about the mindset of owners:
You’re Either the Hammer…

Hammers make things happen. They aren’t afraid to swing hard, take calculated risks, and make an impact. They don’t wait for things to happen.
…Or the Nail

They hold things in place, but only because someone decided that’s where they should be. Nails wait for instructions. They keep their heads down and hope they don’t get bent out of shape.

Biographies of billionaires teach you more than self-help business books.

Here are my 5 favorites:
1. Built from Scratch (Home Depot Founders)

Read for: Learning how to disrupt an industry.

Marcus & Blank were fired from Handy Dan. Then they noticed a gap in the system...
You needed a contractor's license just to buy basic supplies. No one could access professional materials.

Their solution? "If you can save a customer money, do it."

They removed all middlemen and took the DIY market from $35B to $365B. Image

This UK entrepreneur turned a wire basket manufacturer into the world's largest advertising agency.

Warren Buffett allegedly offered to buy it at a 20% premium in 2012…

Here’s the strategy behind this now-$10B boring business: Image
Our story starts with Sir Martin Sorrell.

But before that, it starts with Wire and Plastic Products plc.

It was founded in 1971 as a manufacturer of shopping baskets, rat cages, and clothes lockers.

That is, until Sorrell came along… Image
He and his partner Preston Rabl bought a controlling stake of WPP in 1985.

By 1986, they made their first acquisition:

Picquotware, a teapot manufacturer.

But shortly after, Sorrell started putting his REAL plan into action… Image

The wealth transfer of the decade is happening on Britain's High Streets.

35 shops closed per DAY in 2024.

But where most see destruction, I see opportunity...

Here's the contrarian’s playbook to making $$$ saving local economies:
First, let’s paint a picture:

Nearly 7,000 chain stores closed in the first half of 2024. Pharmacies shuttered. Banks disappeared. Historic pubs went dark.
We see this on Main Streets in the US.

Empty storefronts. Those that aren’t vacant are overly corporatized. Low foot traffic. “For Lease” signs everywhere.

But the high streets?

It goes even further back…
