Hello contrarians and welcome to another weekly newsletter issue.
They are not waiting. Neither should you.
Jack Dorsey is not just some random executive. He is the co-founder of Twitter and the co-founder of Square, now Block, the company behind Square and Cash App. He has built some of the most influential digital businesses of the modern era.
And now his company has let go of 4,000 people-roughly half of its staff.
Think about that.
Half of the company, gone. I naturally lost my breath when I read that.
And the reason tied to it was something many people have been hoping would take longer to arrive: automation and A.I. making companies feel they need fewer people.
This is not just another business headline. It is a signal.
Slowly but surely, companies are learning how to do more with fewer people. Roles are being absorbed. Tasks are being automated. Teams are being trimmed. And over time, that changes the entire job market completely.
I saw another side of this reality recently. I went to check one of my tenant properties, and she told me her daughter has been applying for work for seven months-mall jobs, entry-level jobs, everyday jobs-and still has not been able to find anything.
That stayed with me.
Because when people are displaced in mass, they do not disappear. They flow into whatever opportunities are left. And that makes everything more competitive.
Unfortunately, most people do not move defensively. They move reactively. They wait until the layoff happens. They wait until the pressure is on. They wait until survival becomes the reason.
That is the hard way.
The smart move is to build before you are forced to.
Build while you still have a paycheck. Build while you are still employed. Build while you still have options. Build while you can still make decisions from strength, not fear.
This is why entrepreneurship matters more now than ever. Not because everyone needs to build some giant company, but because in a world where businesses can automate faster and cut faster, having something of your own is no longer just ambitious.
It is protective.
A side business. A service business. A newsletter. An online store. A monetizable skill. A small business you can grow over time.
Something.
Because “later” is becoming a dangerous plan.
For the sake of your future, your kids, and your peace of mind, the time to act is now.
Not when your industry changes. Not when your company starts cutting. Not when thousands of other people are rushing toward the same remaining opportunities.
Now.
Do not wait to react. Build something for yourself while you are still working. Get into entrepreneurship while you still can.
Because when people are displaced in large numbers, whatever is left becomes brutally competitive.
I consider myself very lucky. My parents taught me ownership when I was a teenager. I worked in the family business coming out of high school, and within two years I built something of my own.
I’m 39 now, and aside from a brief stint at a local firm to get work experience, I’ve never lived in employment. I don’t know anything else. I’m grateful for that. I came from a business-oriented family, and for more than half my life I’ve only known building, owning, multiplying, and investing. I don’t just see jobs or titles-I see leverage, value, and deals.
And it has always been clear to me why profits beat wages. It has always been clear why ownership matters.
So for you: don’t wait for the layoff. Don’t wait until you’re replaced. Don’t wait until the market is flooded and every opportunity becomes a fight.
I write these weekly newsletters to pass on growth, insight, and practical tools you can add to your toolbox. You are full of talent-monetize it, build around it, and grow something that belongs to you.
Do it for yourself. Do it for your kids.
Go for it. You don’t know it yet, but i’ll be your biggest fan.
Today I am divesting more assets in my portfolio. More are available, I just can’t fit it all into this newsletter, but feel free to reach out.
Today you have the chance to leverage and average up. Be your own boss and buy back time. We’ve done the hard part of building, now you can take over.
1) SaaS Media Tool
After 3 years, my partners and I have agreed to divest our SaaS tool. This asset has seen an ARR(Annual Recurring Revenue) of $1.7M USD and over 500%+ year over year ARR growth-compared to previous year.
This asset is virtually 100% hands off, with high level partners who run most of the operations, through an extremely capable small team.
Great for a large investor, family office or private equity firm.
Refer a private equity firm or successful buyer and we will pay-out $100K USD referral fee.
Asking $5,000,000 USD OBO
2) True Crime Youtube Channel
This faceless channel is simply a cash-cow. This channel is in the True Crimes niche as well, like most of our channels are. True Crime is one of the most in demand niches today. The channel comes with VAs that handle the day to day, making this asset virtually 100% hands off.
Last 12 months has produced:
$104,000 USD in revenues
$96,000 USD in profits
$8,000 USD/mnth average profit
A cool 92% profit margin.
With increased output, a new owner can double revenues or increase overall quality, which increases income substantially. A smart new owner can take what is working and create 1-3 more channels.
Asking $150,000 USD OBO with $130,000 USD down OBO, seller finance $20,000 USD at 0% interest for 3 years.
