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

Cashflow off Real Estate the unconventional way.

Real estate foreclosures are going to go up.

Shadow inventory, which means foreclosures in waiting (aka a moratorium)

Essentially a backlog of real estate that you can get for below retail @ auction

But how? Thread: Image
Enter my bud, @amaconstruct:
“Fall in love with the problem. Anytime it’s hard there’s less competition, anytime less competition, you’ll get a better deal, anytime there are problems as long as you have the solutions to it you can make a ton of money. And have a LOT of fun.”
First:We’ve all heard of foreclosures.

You see them on MLS showing a bank foreclosed on property. But that's the END of the process.

REO’s (foreclosed properties listed on MLS) are competitive.

Why? MLS is easy. (& millennials might be on Zillow more than Robinhood).

He makes $15k a month off plants?

Maybe PLANTS should be your next biz? Or wait for our plant tax credit play manana 😱

How to profit off plants (the legal kind 🤫):
U.S. house plant sales have increased by 50% in the last 3 years.
- collective spending value to a whopping $1.7 billion!
A $250,000 tree? Weird flex…
Apparently, mega-cars are so 2009, today = boujeeiest of zen gardens.
- WSJ says there’s an entire lux market for finding old cool trees, buying them, then shipping them to mansions & hotels.

Another Cashflow Idea: 💸

We created a course, generated $50k in rev ($20k Monthly) PRELAUNCH, w/ no employees, investors, and really no fing idea what we were doing. Now it'll do $1M+ in ARR. @uacquisitions

Here's our blueprint, may be worth ripping off:
Step 1: Choose a topic
Framework: 4 P's find where..
- People: interested already (ie big FB groups on subject)
- Profits: ways to make people $ (we like that)
- Paychecks: peeps r spending on it already
- Perspective: you have insight, expertise, or just share as you learn
Ours is about M&A.
- 10 steps to buying your 1st biz for $100k in passive(ish) income
Why?
- People: big FB groups & a few courses (BAD ones ahem Ninja?)
- Profits: Market is RIPE, 2.5M biz's for sale in US in micro PE
- I know a thing or 7 bout that (I've done 60+ transactions)

How to create an unfair investor advantage?
I’m no genius. But I've made a few nickles:
Built investment biz's in:
- ETFs '08: $531B assets; now $3.4T+. (540%)
- LatAM '10: $1.5T ; now $3T+. (100%)
- Cannabis '14: $3.5B; now $20B+. (471%)

A thread on getting an edge early:
Here’s where I stop being obnoxious (someone call @vcbrags already), and say how this is useful to you.

Being early can be a superpower.

When people ask you, “What? Why would you do that?”

You just may be on to something my friend.
When I first got into cannabis (and proceeded to raise a $200MM Fund in the space), my Latina Catholic mother about had a heart attack. I think she thought I did this all day?

That was a trigger..

The 50-80% profit margin play that sports fanatics are going to LOVE.

Thread: Image
Mike is a college dropout, now a SVP at a Fortune 25 Co.
But he hasn't forgotten the hustle... not about that one-income game.
SO: 7 Figures in revenue all started w/ a Bull....
Michael Jordan was retiring and going to play against the Hornets.

- $1k each (aka NFT level prices)
- but ya know happy wife happy life

I have this theory: we have to unlearn what we were "taught" in school

Fancy, expensive schools, big companies -> don't teach what we should really learn.

Thread on 5 things I wished I learned earlier:
#1 Negotiate EVERYTHING
You will NEVER get what you don't ask for.
Graph: Difference in same salary over course of career for those who negotiate &who don't is $2MM.

Most people don't negotiate. Don't be most people.
#2 The Top 1% - Have $ Make $
View the world as a business owner- real wealth is made through equity and ownership.

How to get equity?
Start thinking like an owner.
Take on more tasks.
Ask what work you could do to get equity. Then crush it.
