    Help me define "Value"

    You are listing elements that effect supply and demand, and advertising, etc., which is helpful to recognize in business. As I'm seeing it, you can't quantify (put a numerical value to) most of these. Therefore, you have no real equations. Also, Supply and demand is not one thing. Supply is...

    Re: Calling everyone who works out and is into fitness/bodybuildi I used to work out quite a bit. I read a variety of sources, but mostly followed principles based on Arthur Jones (talk about old school eh?) of Nautilus fame (he trained Casey Viator). When I was really focused on it I was...

    Bump. Fifty-two views so far and nobody has anything to say about my site? C'mon guys, I would really like to get your feedback here. How could I improve it? What should I add? What should I remove? How should I promote it? I'm fairly new to this, so I could use some suggestions.

    Tim Ferris' Business Model for BrainQuicken

    Tim outsourced everything he could. You can read some of the details in his book. He did not manufacture the product. That was done overseas, probably China, but I don't remember for sure. By the way, Tim has now sold out of BrainQuicken, and is using the money for venture capital.

    Your Threshold for Sacrifice

    MINDSET 
    How about living in your beater car? You can always live in a car, but you can't drive a house (or apartment). I think the tolerable level of sacrifice changes with different stages of life. When you're young and single, you can deal with some pretty miserable conditions in pursuit of your...

    Running A Marathon!

    MINDSET 
    Congratulations! I can totally relate to your story. For about the last 5-7 years I wasn't able to run more than about 1-2 miles without developing severe muscle cramps/spasms in my calves. I am not a guy who you would say is out of shape, and I can do a lot of other physical activities, but I...

    Local cap rates

    REAL ESTATE 
    Cap rates are really tough to pin down right now. Around here (CO), according to a few different sources, I've heard cap rates are anywhere from 8.5% to 10%. Some factors I see behind the increasing cap rates: Bank requirements - most want a debt coverage ratio > 1.30 Supply and demand -...

    Help AJ - interesting self-storage opportunity facing foreclosure

    REAL ESTATE 
    Re: Help AJ - interesting self-storage opportunity facing foreclo I'm better on a per square foot basis than a per unit basis as the unit sizes vary. A previous bid, from 18-24 months ago, has construction including soft costs at about $39/sf. This would likely be less now with reduced cost of...

    REAL ESTATE 
    Re: Help AJ - interesting self-storage opportunity facing foreclo Last time I checked, about 9 months ago, all units in town were at or near capacity with waiting lists. I assume this has not changed much, though I would guess that defaults and late payments are up. For Colorado, I think the...
