How NOT to use AI in Your Search
Most people think they're working really hard, but they're outsourcing to AI the most important question. Use AI as a tool, but don't let it replace your thinking.

What is the difference between EBITDA vs SDE? (with a cash flow bonus)
Alright, a question I get often. What is the difference between EBITDA vs SDE? We dive into a few high-level differences to watch out for when evaluating businesses. EBITDA is typically used for larger businesses ($2-3M+ Profit). SDE is typically used for smaller businesses. BUT neither of those is cash flow. A few podcast nuggies: - SDE is not Cash Flow - Loan payments don't show up on the P&L many times - If you take a business with no debt, stack on 80%+ debt, you are fundamentally changing the entire business structure. You are ADDING risk here. You can get into trouble if you only take their costs vs WHAT YOUR costs will be.

Changing Asset Classes - Adding Back an Owner Salary for an Operator?
Can you negatively add back an owner's salary because you're going to put an operator in? Yes, but don't expect the owner to pay for that in the valuation. Or to take you seriously if you propose that. Why hire just 1 person? Why not hire 50 people and go into super growth mode while losing $3M/year?

How to Save on Health Insurance for Entrepreneurs
Oran Rose shares how he moved from door-to-door pest control sales into life insurance, driven partly by losing his father young and seeing firsthand the impact of inadequate coverage. He later shifted into health insurance, where he helps entrepreneurs and self-employed families understand options beyond expensive COBRA or full-price marketplace plans. The big theme is that business owners often overpay because they do not know how income, subsidies, private plans, short-term plans, and marketplace coverage can be combined. Oran's advice: talk to a qualified agent before assuming health insurance has to be a massive monthly burden. * Oran's background in door-to-door sales gave him the persistence needed to succeed in insurance. * How to get health insurance for entrepreneurs * Examples of families saving $1,500–$2,600+ per month by restructuring coverage. * Health insurance is confusing, but the right agent can help business owners avoid overpaying.

The Journey, Not the Destination - Measuring the Gain
* **The summit is not the end.** Even at the top of Everest, Hillary and Norgay was already seeing the next mountain. * **The journey is what changes you.** The growth comes in the uphill and downhill, not sitting at the summit. * **Chase the next mountain from gratitude, not emptiness.** Measure the gain, not the gap.
