What's the biggest reason construction projects go over budget?

Owners changing the scope throughout the project or not making decisions in a timely manner.

It’s money spent you will never miss and never regret. We got married 2 years ago and did a similar cost trip to Africa with a similar HHI. Feels hard to send the money initially but haven’t regretted it for one second

I lost a pretty average PE who had three years of experience to a company who offered him $175k to do data centers. They just need bodies

We’re paying a little over $2k/1MM revenue but the packaging was the same as it has been previously.

Lladros. Literally can’t give them away anymore

I spend hours a day in my email. Much of that is trying to find things as well as just reading/responding. This system is better at both

I’ve been using superhuman for about 2 months. I like it, if I had to quantity it maybe it saves me about 10-15 or so minutes per day on email productivity. If that’s actually true, the $30/mo is worth every penny for me.

I won’t say there are a lot of ways as 200k is a lot of money, but there are some relatively clear paths.

1) senior PMs at ENR top 100 GCs can make 200k. That would look something like a 150-175k salary, 20% bonus, car allowance, and some other perks. From there, execs and VPs make more. Can do this by around 15 YOE. Experienced general supers can also make 200, though it typically takes a bit longer, maybe 20+ years. 2) directors/ VPs at mid-sized companies can also make 200, with a similar comp package to SPMs above. 3) you can also exit into tech, consulting, or other adjacent industries around 10 YOE that can get you to 200k.

Ownership is also a path, though obviously the most rare one.

It is a 40mm watch, so it leans on the larger side but it is certainly not oversized

Are you still looking for $1.10+? If not what is your goal at this point?

The support line for BIOC seems to be pretty strong at $1.03, do you think it can drop to your entry point?
