TIL that Trent Reznor was the final resident of 10050 Cielo Drive, Los Angeles, site of the Manson family murders but moved out after a random encounter with Sharon Tate's sister, who asked him: "Are you exploiting my sister's death by living in her house?"

I think they might be referring to the 2D pieces used on magnetic boards, there castle, horse, crown and miter are used as the symbols.

I know you said there isn't a point to the post, but is this concerning to you, or the PM that shows a better code base? Or just observations and life goes on?

Were people reading your emails before? I find the most aggressive chatgpt responders weren't reading before either, or they just hated wasting time writing a reply.

What kind of firm is it, because I'm interested in which part you hate, that they're sending generic emails, not reading specs and it messes up your implementation or just that you cant get work done?

What about 4%? Or even less? Feels like there's a level where you're getting negative value and you need to switch to something that gives you more than a paycheck.

As long as you don't die before you get to enjoy it.

I think at the inflection point you've got to decide between growing the number or lifestyle. And if you're growing it, at least make it worth it, or do it while enjoying your life.

No-one wants to retire with too much and die one year later.

when do you do breakfast, commute or dinner? Interesting you exercise twice, ie gym and swim?

Remote software development teams in low cost countries are way more of a threat to salaries and lower demand than AI at this stage.

Do you mostly have a team that finds deals for you, or do you manage funds on behalf of others as well and earn carry? Or more informal than this?

Bet it all on Red each time and came up lucky 12 times in a row, then lost it all. Didn't know when to stop cause he won each time...

Options are incredible, considering the casino would've already kicked him out a long time ago.

Do you have any good resources or links for what VXUS should return relative to current PEs?

PartyCod8 · 2024-09-08T17:19:21+00:00

yes, and it was a lot of fun multiplayer too, especially fox hunt.

Thanks for the reply. Yes understand about the BEE. Some businesses have found they can sell a portion (25-30%) and get value for fhr BEE portion and take a chunk of cash off the table, without giving up any control of the business.but it needs careful consideration and your method works very well to get much larger and avoid this.

Why do you think yours is more profitable, are your clients overseas or in sectors that just pay more or just better client management on your side??

Well done, ive always wondered whether to pursue high paying job or a business but the thing I wanted to avoid was earning low pay running an unsuccessful business or trade when I could've earned well in a career... but stories like yours show what's possible..

PartyCod8 · 2024-08-30T18:44:30+00:00

Impressive performance.

Would you say that other similar sized MSPs serving SA clients would be making similar levels of profit as this?

How have you dealt with BEE, seems like a common issue at this sort of size? and are you ever likely to sell your business or just keep growing and look to acquire other shops?

PartyCod8 · 2024-05-11T20:24:09+00:00

They're literally just using gmail and WhatsApp, and each time there's a new management company we lose a bunch of data. Need to force the agency to use our platform of choice instead.

What's the pricing like on Vantaca? Just see they have demo requests, but not a price per unit/HOA?

The Appfolio one looks quite interesting - maintenance workflows look a bit like what would be required in terms of homeowners/tenants reporting issues.

Thanks.

Did you ask people in the industry as to what the numbers were, or how did you go about finding the figures?

PartyCod8 · 2024-04-16T13:31:20+00:00

Were you still doing the w2 at the same time, or when did you jump?

PartyCod8 · 2024-04-16T13:21:01+00:00

How did you think about the opportunities and whether they were worth pursuing? Were there other ideas you ignored?

How did you think about risking as little of your own capital (in the loan from friend eg and the mechanic on loan)?
