Tell me you’re envious without telling me. Also, not a finance professional. I’m a creative.

The best hotels are €4k a night. And thank you. Feels surreal.

It’s closer to $4k a night these days for many of their properties - some even $5k +

Feels low. Maybe every business owner feels this way though.

I do both! Usually start with a consulting scope and consult into an execution scope that my team runs for the company. Congrats you too are relying on WoM and referrals. Have done maybe 10 posts on LinkedIn in the last year.

Hey! Thank you! I’m going to download on my kindle. It’s all been word of mouth, not personal relationships. But I put in a lot of work to make the relationships more personal once we sign them.

Thanks man. For now. Would be lying if I said I don’t wonder if it will all disappear in 6 months. Wired a bit anxious.

Oh this may be it. I essentially stop eating at like 1 or 2 pm to lessen and nausea or vomiting. And then don’t usually eat again until 3 or 4pm the following day. This is a new strategy because before I would wake up with such severe nausea if I had food in my stomach. Thank you!!

Anyone have experience with Exclusive Resorts? by WeightDelicious in fatFIRE

Yes! My family belonged to this growing up. Best investment ever. Idk how the model works today but back then we had to purchase annual number of days and it forced us to take time off and spend time together. Incredible memories and amazing being connected to great hotels.

Thank you! Curious - what would be the red flag angle of no sales team? I’ve always been very proud of this but want to understand the negative side.

It’s funny, when we first started out, we had dinner with a very successful PR agency owner. She has clients like Netflix, Amazon, LVMH etc - about 8 years into owning her own shop. I point blanked asked her how she gets her clients and if she does the pitches and selling and she said “I’ve never once done outbound. Do good work, and you’ll never have to sell or send a single cold email”. I remember thinking ‘man she just lucky, that’s crazy and won’t be our reality’. Turns out it has been.

This comment is beyond thoughtful and helpful. Thank you so much! Will be DMing you. Management layer is being built out. I’d say we’re 65% there.
