my last video.
FULL TRANSCRIPT
So, given that you clicked on this
video, you're either a real supporter or
you just hate me and can't wait to get
rid of me. Uh, good news and bad news.
Uh, bad news for the people who just
really want to get rid of me. This is my
last video for this year and I probably
won't post anything tomorrow and I have
a lot to share in this video that I
think will be really useful. So, good
news for the supporters. See, this video
is more than just a reminder that yes,
the Reinvest AI is out as promised,
which means yes, the coupon expires
tonight and we raised the price a lot.
This video is actually to give you a lot
of tips, a lot of commentary on things
that worked really well for me in 2025
so that hopefully you could learn even
just one thing from this video and
improve your life. because many of you
come to the channel and you see me do
fundamental analysis and technical
analysis and cover news or do deep dives
and then I go run this real estate
company and now we develop an AI app.
There's a lot and so I wanted to share
some of the things that went really well
in 2025 mostly just to for free help you
uh also have a great 2026 and I think
you know there's no better day than
frankly December 31st to do just that.
So, uh, the first tip that I would like
to give is I'd like to keep it nice and
straight and simple here and we'll make
some promises as well. We'll make some
commitments here. I think that's always
a good thing to do on New Year's. But,
uh, the first thing is get the
productivity app. It's free. It's it's
not a sponsored app. It's something that
I use. You know, there's no affiliate
link or whatever, but you could get this
in the Apple App Store. I'm not sure if
they have it for Android, but it's
called Productivity. I'm sure you could
get a different kind of thing as well,
but I basically call it like my World of
Warcraft daily sheet. And uh so what I
do in it is I just put things in there
that I know I need to do on a daily
basis. This is different from like my
checklist or my to-do list. We'll talk
about that in a moment. I don't think
you should mix up bare minimum things
that you should do on a daily basis with
your regular to-do list. That gets too
blurry and then you can't focus on the
things you need to do. You get
distracted by the basic things you
should be doing on a daily basis. But if
you don't have both of these lists,
you're really likely to not do things
you should be doing on a daily basis.
Now, what could some of those things be?
Well, I'll give you some examples. So,
it could be as basic as brush your
teeth, floss, and mouthwash on a daily
basis. It's really important, especially
if you're prone to cavities like I am.
And so, I do that on a daily basis. And
I've been doing that on a daily basis
pretty much all year long, which is
really exciting because in the past I
didn't and just sort of like get to it
or I'll skip a night cuz I'm tired. Now
I don't and it's great. Uh, another
example is get my daily wealth email out
or, you know, notification out if you
use the Meet Kevin app for it. I've been
very consistent on this since logging
this in my daily sheet and I really
enjoy it. Like I say, it's like my World
of Warcraft dailies. You know, you got
to get out there and grind, right? or
things like logging my state of mind
every day. You know, what are the things
that made me happy and what didn't? You
know, I actually just got like an AI
Apple insight and it's like, hey, we
noticed 76% of the time you said you
were really happy uh was time you were
spending with family, which we'll have
an update on family in just a moment as
well, which is kind of exciting, which
is cool. But anyway, uh then we talk uh
you know, I I make sure that I do things
like I journal. Hey, what did I get done
today? Did I do anything productive
today? I find that there's also a
correlation between getting things done,
not necessarily like money coming in
like, you know, money coming in is
great. Okay, that's fantastic. I mean,
like I look at house hack, you know,
we're we're we just bought 11
properties. We as of December 16th went
EPS profitable, which is great. I mean,
the accountants will finish off uh you
know, all the accounting or whatever
they got to do for the rest of the
quarter and then we'll do our filings
and that which is really exciting.
I mean, this is amazing because we have
now we bought 11 properties in the
fourth quarter as we promised we would
go buy properties in the fourth quarter.
Now we got $15 million in the bank
because people kept investing and
believing in House Hack and the vision
of what we're doing with House Hack and
Reinvest, right? Same company or our AI
product. Really excited about that. Uh
so I like it's it's not a matter though
of dollars. It's a matter of getting
things done, working those little things
that every single day get you closer to
your mission and that logging that
satisfaction. Some things that could be
as simple as like, you know, hey, did I
get a better insurance policy that
protects the business better, that is
something that satisfies me. It's
something that nobody sees and it
doesn't make for a sexy YouTube video,
but it's something we we all know we
have to do that kind of junk and it's
annoying. Like I'll give you some other
examples uh that those are things that
you want to log and you're like I got
this done so at least you can document
that success and you get happiness out
of doing it. It's why I like logging or
journaling every day what I did. I think
it's a huge hack for happiness and
motivation. But like look the last 4
months we finished laying off people. We
we hated having to do it but we were
overstaffed. We just don't need as many
people as we originally did when we were
buying in a bunch of different cities.
We've now bought most of our real estate
in different cities and so we just don't
need the staff. We don't need an onstaff
construction crew. Like there are just
so many things we don't need that we
thought we needed. And so we've really
collapsed our expenses, which we'll talk
about like hedging in the market in just
a moment, but spoiler alert, when you
reduce your expenses, it's a whole lot
easier to hedge in case the market goes
weird. Now, you know me, I'm 5050 here
as to what's going to happen next year.
But either way, uh like just think about
little loose ends that you want to grind
on that is a pain in the butt, but you
should be logging as a success. So, do
you actually have all of your insurance
coverages, right? I mean, like I look at
some of the insuranceances coverages
that we have and and the list is insane.
Uh I'll pull it up and then I'll read
you some off here right now. But it's
not just that. It's also thinking about
retirement, not just for yourself, but
if you have children, like I actually
opened up Kougan accounts in California
for my kids. So that way when I pay
them, some of it goes into a child's
Cougan account uh and some of it goes uh
into their UTMA account that I have at
Fidelity and then I move that income
that they get after they pay their taxes
on it, which is basically next to
nothing. Uh and then we move that into
their Roth uh uh retirement account.
Like to me, these are really cool things
that everybody kind of should be looking
into setting up as as soon as your kids
are old enough to earn income and
actually do something functional at
let's say your side hustle, your family
business. And even if you're employed,
you can have a side hustle. You could
get a real estate license, a lending
license, or do electrical work on the
side, or you know, I know a guy that I
love and adore. Uh you know, he he is a
tech guy and he does uh firearms
training on the weekend. And I'm like,
"This is awesome. Good for him." Like, I
love that kind of stuff. I I really
admire and love to hear stuff like that.
Uh because it's great. Now, you can also
write off more. Not only can you write
off more stuff, but you can employ your
children. You can build up their 401,
you know, their 401ks or Roths or
whatever. Usually, children aren't
eligible for 401ks depending on what
kind of plan you have. But anyway, their
Roths, which is great. Their taxes are
so low anyway, right? You may as well.
But anyway, accounting, other loose
ends. These are all the things you want
to put in. Like I look at some of the
insurance things we have here. master
insurance policies for bundles of
properties, workers comp, health
insurance, vision and dental, too
expensive, property management, ENO, uh,
directors and operators and investor
insurance, cyber security, EPLI, life
insurance, different policies, techno,
cyber eno, IP insurance, media
insurance, business owner policies
and all of these policies require like
negotiating and working, right? That's
all the unsexy stuff that doesn't show
up in a YouTube video, right? Like
nobody wants to talk about that stuff.
But the way you kind of make sense of it
or the way you make it enjoyable, so to
speak, is in my opinion, you go out and
say, "Hey, I'm going to log it." And
that makes me feel success in what I'm
doing. And I think that's a wonderful
thing. Uh, another thing like, "Do you
have your trust set up the way you
wanted? If you're if you die, does your,
you know, family have access to all of
your 2FA? Do you have all do you have
all your beneficiaries correctly set up?
You know, do you have like a fireproof
safe somewhere where somebody can go in
and like, you know, figure out like,
hey, like what do I do if you're dead? I
don't know. Or maybe you have a vault or
like a safety deposit box somewhere
where you keep that, right? Like it
doesn't have to be in your home. You
could hide it somewhere. Point is, you
know, people in your family should know
these things, right? So these just
little things to think ahead that
actually give you as a human a lot of
peace of mind even though none of us
actually are planning on dying anytime
soon. Knock on wood. So productivity app
real big game changer for me and just
like getting these things logged and
grinding these things out and you know I
started my New Year's resolution to
actually go to the gym and work out now
32 days ago. Today will be day 33 on a
streak once I go to the gym after this.
Actually I already did this one. So I'm
going to check one of these off over
here. I already did that, so I'm going
to check that off. You know, the little
things you get into these habits and
forming habits is good. That's something
good that we want to do going into uh
2026.
Now, I've I've got more here and a lot
of productivity tips. And, you know, not
only is our I mean, this is another
thing I'm going to have to do. We're
going to have to sort of rebuild the
Reinvest website because, well, at this
point, the app is live and we're really
excited about that. You can still lock
in your pricing if you want. Uh, we got
to change the coupon. We got to rebuild
the website a little bit because, you
know, now our investment round is
closing tonight. Uh, and so we'll get
rid of the invest button and we'll get
rid of the invest section. Maybe we'll
move the real estate section somewhere
else. But I want to talk about more
productivity tips. Uh, not just to think
about all the things I still have to do.
Uh, but I want to make a promise. I made
this promise last in 2022.
And uh I said that for the foreseeable
future I would no longer take sponsors
in 2022. And uh even though you know two
years later it took two year I did two
years of no sponsors. Uh and I only
promised I said for the foreseeable
future I wouldn't take sponsors and
people like oh you take sponsor. So I
did have sponsors for about probably the
yeah last year maybe year and a half or
so. And uh I think right now and this is
just a promise that I'd like to make to
everybody on the channel that again also
for the foreseeable future. Uh this
video will be the last video with a
sponsor integration. And the reason for
that is related to the promises that I
want to make in the latter part of this
video. And so there are a lot of
exciting things that I have for 2026
that I want to talk about. Uh but with
that said, uh say a silent prayer, a
moment of thanks, a moment of
gratefulness to our last sponsor for the
foreseeable future. Managing rental
finances across multiple bank accounts,
apps, and whatever else can get
complicated really fast. From tracking
rent payments to preparing for tax
season, it's a lot of work. And that's
where today's sponsor, Baselane, comes
in. It's a banking and bookkeeping
platform designed for real estate
investors who want a simpler all-in-one
system. Baselane allows you to open
unlimited checking and savings accounts
for each property, helping keep income,
expenses, security deposits, and
reserves all organized and separate,
segmented apart. Rent collection is then
fully automated with reminders, optional
late fees, other settings that you can
adjust depending on how you want those
notifications to go out, and deposits
that can arrive in as little as two
business days. For bookkeeping, Baselane
automatically categorizes transactions
and generates downloadable reports that
make tax preparation much easier. It
combines what would normally take
several tools, several different
dashboards to go to, you name it, all at
one place. and it's at
baselane.com/kevvin.
If you sign up at baselane.com/kevvin,
that's today's sponsor, you'll get $100
in bonus cash when you fund your
account. Again, that's
baselane.com/kevvin
or click the link in the description
below. Oh, thanks so much for baseline.
They're great and I think they do great
in real estate and y'all know I love
real estate. But let's go back to sort
of the tips. So, after you get this
productivity app like set up, and you
should be grinding on this, I recommend
you have one checklist. Nobody does
this, but I think it's so important. So,
you have the productivity app for like
the things you're going to do on a daily
basis, right? And you could like journal
and your reminder, do all that kind of
stuff. But the next thing you really
need, you need a checklist. One place
that you put everything because it's
getting worse every single day. Every
app gives you notifications. You got
text messages, voicemails, missed calls,
emails. You can't consolidate all of the
crap. Returns to make to Amazon,
packages to drop off, things to do for
the kids, donations to make, things to
buy, things to
you can't keep it all straight. So, what
I actually did is I made uh and and you
could use this for free. You don't have
to. like it's no skin off our back
whether you use it or not. But um I made
a uh to-do list app. This sounds crazy,
but you know what? My team and I, we put
this together, but it the inspiration
was having one place that you could
actually put all your stuff. And look,
there are a million different checklist
apps, but one thing that ours does that
I think is really unique, you could use
a different one, of course. You could
download the Meet Kevin app if you want,
but one thing ours does that I think is
unique is it lets you deprioritize
tasks. So, I'll show you really quickly
uh how it works and how I use it and the
little tricks that I found that are
really useful for me uh to be more
productive as uh well, frankly a human.
And I think that's that's always our
goal is how can we learn to be more
productive because that enables us to
spend more time with family and more
time making the dalahalas, right? All
right. So, uh, here's just a quick
example of how I might use this. So,
back in the day, if I had like five
miscellaneous text messages, let's say
three of them were bills, right? And
let's say I had to do bills to uh
Walter, you know, or uh bills to Greg
and I don't know, I'll do bills to my
buddy Alio, let's just say, right? Well,
if I got, you know, text messages and
emails and voicemails asking me about uh
bills, well, it's really hard to
organize that all and I'd like to do it
all at the same time. So, what I do is I
when I read these things, I just quickly
throw them on my list of tasks to do and
I'll throw them under bills and great,
now they're all categorized under bills.
Nice and easy like that, right? But the
other thing that I'll do is I'll throw
in here and do like, you know,
QuickBooks and then I'll do, you know,
upload receipts or deposit uh checks. If
I could spell correctly. There we go.
Deposit uh checks. Still didn't spell
correctly, but whatever. You get the
idea. Now, let's say I'm going to pay
bills through Mercury and I don't really
want to go into QuickBooks right now and
I got to do some other things like drop
off mail or maybe I got to, you know,
uh, call the venture capital company
back. We haven't gotten any venture
capital investments for House Hack, but
I've had a lot of people asking me for
pitch decks, and I'm like, before I make
a pitch deck, I am closing this fund
raise cuz if I'm going to have to make a
pitch deck, we are raising the
valuation. But anyway, so like let's say
those are higher priority items, right?
So uh and and let's say, you know, for
whatever reason, this is the way it
looks. So I might look at this and say,
"All right, hm, do I really want to do
QuickBooks right now?" No. So this is
the feature that I really like that I
haven't seen another app do. I can
depprioritize. So I could swipe to dep
prioritize, and I just hit prioritize,
and it pops up at the bottom of the
list. Call the VC company. All right,
let's say I did. Ring, ring, drop off
the mail. Let's say I did. Complete. All
right, awesome. It's done. And now those
things also go into my log. Like my last
actions go into my log. So it's kind of
cool in case I ever need to undo
something. So we built this. It's just a
free feature in the Meet Kevin app.
That's the same app where you could get
your daily wealth updates, which I think
are really cool. Like here's the payroll
hack up uh hack that I did yesterday,
which I thought was really cool. Uh but
anyway, you know, that's just the task
hack. And then when I finish these off,
obviously I can complete them. I can uh
you know if I really want to I can
collapse that for now and depp
prioritize it just to get it out of my
way the bills section. But this is a
nice easy way to consolidate life.
Game changer. It is such a stress relief
to actually just organize things
correctly. Now uh we already talked
about gym. I'm not really doing like a
gym New Year's resolution cuz I'm like
if I do it on January 1st I'm not going
to do it long like I'll fail just like
is normal. So, I actually started in
Thanksgiving and now I'm getting into
this on day 33, which is kind of
exciting. So, that doesn't mean don't
start today if if you've wanted to. A
tip that I found for the gym, because
I've never been able to be consistent in
the gym, and I' I'm only on day 33, so
it's whatever.
Very, very simple. Keep your exercise
simple when you start getting in the
routine. I'm not, you know, a personal
trainer or whatever, but this is just
what I found that works for me. I want
to spend less than 40 minutes a day in
the gym. Like that's I cap out no more
than 40 minutes. And I'll do an AB and a
Dday. That's or a B a day and a B day.
There we go. Uh and really the goal is
three or four exercises. That's it.
Three or four exercises, 12 reps, four
sets, done. Like there's plenty of time
to do them. Do a quick email. Do them
again. Do a quick email. Do them again.
and and then you're out of there. And it
feels great to get it done every single
day. Big big big fan of this. Uh and I
should honestly add this to my dailies
list. I'm actually going to write it
down as like things to add to my daily
list because I like this touch dirt. I
have a greenhouse now. That was
something that I finally, you know, was
able to put together in 2020 uh six or
five. And I'm so grateful about it
because or for it because I really feel
like it makes me happier on a daily
basis to like look at my plants and see
my plants grow. But it's more than just
growing plants. They're also kind of
like a way of seeing time go by. It's
like, wow, look at all that progress we
made over those last few weeks. And if I
feel like I'm not also making progress
while those plants are growing, it's
kind of just like a little slap in the
face like, man, what did you do? Like
these plants grew grew up and what did
you do in the meantime? Like I want to
be able to see that time go by and go, I
spent that time well. I got a lot done,
right? That feels good. And it doesn't
have to always be work. Like vacation is
good, too. Trust me, I'm I'm like a
massive fan of spending time with the
family and vacationing. And that's
something, not necessarily vacationing,
but spending time with the family is
something that I really want to do more.
That's probably something that I've been
less good at in 2025, especially when
unfortunately we let go of the over
staff that we had. There was a lot of
catchup that I had to do. I feel really
caught up right now. Like so much weight
is off my shoulders. And it's so great
because the team we have working with us
now, they're all so wonderful. They all
deserve so much praise. from uh
accountants to CPAs to the lawyers that
work with us, the broker dealer that
works with us to our software team, our
lead engineer to, you know, the staff in
the office, just everyone just firing on
all cylinders. It does feel great. But
that doesn't mean, you know, don't go
out with your family and go hit the
powder. Like, you know, if you've never
skied before, go get yourself some skis.
Like, you must experience the magic of
the snow. you know, buy yourself some of
those Meta glasses. You know, I like I'm
not the biggest fan of Meta itself,
although I do think their stock is cheap
and I buy it. Uh but um the Meta
glasses, you know, they're great.
They're a great way to get out there and
film without losing that moment, right?
That's what you don't want is you don't
want to be going through this and
holding a camera, losing the moment. You
want to be looking at what you're doing
and, you know, seeing your 10year-old go
through this or whatever. This this is
the fun that you should be having in
life. Now, I will say if you ever go to
Northstar, also nicknamed Flatar, I do
not recommend staying at the little
Hyatt lodge or whatever. Uh, you know,
if you do three nights, you get a
cheaper stay cuz they unlock these like
little condo rooms. I think it's just
like some rigged Airbnb thing that they
do through the hype. We had 30 seconds
of hot water, no amenities. I'm not
trying to sound bougie, but come on. I
need like more than 30 seconds of hot
water for two people. Okay, I gave Jack
all the hot water and I was back to cold
showers, but you know, whatever, right?
Jack and I, we we escaped and uh we we
went up to uh Truckucky, which was
awesome. Like, totally recommend it,
especially after a dump snow. So
awesome. Uh but anyway, let's get to
some more recommendations here. So, uh,
other recommendations that I think a lot
of people forget about and and don't pay
attention to is I really really like
can't stress it enough. People are
getting hacked all the freaking time
right now because they are clicking on
dumb links. This sounds so stupid, but
you will literally get a docu sign from
somebody going contract needing revision
and it's a fishing contract or like
PayPal verify your email or your bank uh
is this transaction fraud and then they
make you panic cuz it's like somebody's
stealing from you so you click the link
and then you log in and you get scammed.
Never log in from an email. Like this
sounds so basic but people do it all day
every day. We just had a local HOA get
hacked. They've been out for like 2
weeks. Like if you want to destroy a
business, go click on links. It's just
it's pretty bad. Uh and I think AI is
just making it worse. So now some uh
those are just, you know, some tips. If
you want to see more of my tips, you can
always check them out on the daily
wealth tab. Uh but I want to talk a
little bit about YouTube. Also want to
be a little bit grateful, by the way,
for what you all are doing. I mean, we
are raising money for House Hack through
YouTube, which is insane. I mean, look
at this. I posted this at 12:00. These
were just examples of inflows. I think
some of these 10kers are people who like
divide their 20k into two credit cards.
I'm not sure about that. Uh but anyway,
uh that could explain some of them. But
anyway, like you know, this was just uh
from the morning hours over here. These
were just inflows into house hack. And
there's still inflows coming in because
our poor broker dealer guy, he's so
overwhelmed. He's like, I can't process
all this. I can't approve all these
people today. So, he says, you know, he
promised he's like, I'll get them all
done by Friday, but you know, cuz
tomorrow's a holiday. I'm like, okay.
Uh, but anyway, deadline's supposed to
be tonight at 11:59 for investing in
house. Uh, but, uh, yeah, we have a
broker dealer who has to do KYC and like
make sure you're not like a known
terrorist or whatever. Like, I guess
people from Bulgaria can't invest. I'm
like, are you guys that mad at Robin
Hood or something? You know, is this
like a is this like a slate on or slight
on uh Vlad or something? I I I don't
understand. I mean, I I know I know Vlad
turned off the buy button, but I didn't
think he was that bad. But anyway, so um
you know, thank you. We're really
grateful for that. Uh and we think
that's wonderful about House Hack. And
you know, we've been fulfilling a lot of
the promises that we committed to. You
know, for example, and then I want to
talk a little bit about YouTube. You
know, we promised that House Hack would
never pay a dime of the plane. And my
promise to myself was that I would
always use the plane and pay the
$250,000 a month or whatever it was for
the plane. It's roughly accurate. Uh and
I would pay for that
unless we didn't need it anymore. And
you know, we bought real estate in
different cities and kind of very well
in my opinion diversified uh for the
real estate that we have. It's over $65
million of real estate free and clear.
No bank debt. House hack didn't pay a
dime with a plane. I got to learn how to
fly. became a pilot, instrument rated,
multi-engine pilot, jet pilot, rated for
single pilot operations. Not that I want
to do it, but it was rated for it.
It's kind of cool, you know? I feel like
I that was a cool chapter, but I don't
fly enough to where if I don't fly
enough, I don't feel comfortable being a
pilot. Like, that's not saying I'm a bad
pilot. I think that means I know that
the way to be a great pilot is by always
flying because it is a fading skill. And
uh that's very dangerous. And so if
you're ever a pilot or with somebody
who's a pilot and they're like, "Oh
yeah, I haven't flown in 3 months. Here,
let's hop on the plane and go
somewhere."
Uh-uh. Okay. So, so anyway, u you know,
maybe I'm just trying to be too
conservative. Who knows? But uh you
know, some other promises and then we'll
hit some of the YouTube thing. You know,
we we promised that we would release our
AI app by December 31st. We did. We did
exactly that. you know, now we have to
fulfill our mission because we're only
on visual AI.
Valuation AI isn't in yet, but we're
building that and our time frame for
that is by Q2, but like in the
background, I'm like, what can we do to
make this go faster? Like, I'm so
excited, right? Because I want to I want
to meet our promises. We promised to buy
properties in Q4. We bought 11. Uh we
already rent renovated and rented out
five of them. The others are in progress
and they'll be done soon. We promised to
develop ADUs. We're literally a week
away from getting final sign off on our
first two and those honestly will be
like a nine cap. Uh like the ADUs where
we got these built money, honey. So,
we're really excited about those. Uh you
know, those are those are in a very
expensive area. Uh we we also promised
we'd lower expenses and that's I think
how we you know, we managed to go EPS
profitable as of December 16th. Again,
the accounting for the rest of the year
has to get done. I don't know how
they're going to finish the accounting,
but uh I I think it bodess well for all
of 2026. So, I'm very excited about
that. That includes depreciation and
interest, which is great. We got 15 mil
in cash. Uh no bank debt or bank lines
of credit. And what I'd like to do is uh
promise a like conservative
outlook uh for for what our plans are.
So what I mean by this is not just on
YouTube but also with house hack. I want
to treat this like Warren Buffett would
like imagine if Warren Buffett were
doing a tech startup and and like an
investing real estate startup.
He would not take a lot of risk. And I
think that's what we're doing. That's
how we're building it. We're building
our AI based off of our experience and
where we can leverage efficiencies in
the best way possible. And I think the
team should be rewarded for that and I'm
a big fan of that. So I'm really excited
for the team we've built. Uh I also, you
know, think that from
a just market and hedging point of view,
you know, I maintain that I think it's
prudent to limit your debt or diversify
away from single stock risk. I had the
use carry people actually email me and
they're like, "Hey, thanks for all the
referrals or activity or whatever from
from your affiliate link. I'm not trying
to uh you know what's it called? Uh uh
or was it cash? Was it used carry or
cash or both of them? Oh, use cash.
That's what it was. Use cash. Ah, that
Yeah, that's right. I I screw up the
names. Uh but um you know, they're
they're the company that lets you
diversify from like one stock into an
ETF. And I'm like, damn, that is
brilliant. Like I wish I wish I could
have built that back when I was like
doing my broker dealer licensing and
stuff like hell yeah guys I'm a big fan
of this. My affiliate link for them is
meetke Kevin.com/cash.
That's uh c a c h e like a cache of
weapons. But anyway, yeah, they emailed
me. They're like, "Oh, thanks, bro." And
I'm like, "Yeah, sure." But uh no, I
actually think it's a brilliant product.
They've got cool things here. So, uh, I
think this is smart, but I'm not saying
it to pitch them because like I've never
used them. I want to be clear about
that. I maybe I'll use them in the
future. I do think I'll use them in the
future, but uh, but I don't know. So, I
I want you to go into that knowing that
clearly. But the reason I mention is
just a way to say like I think it's a
good idea to diversify and I think a lot
of people aren't doing that because
they're stuck because of taxes or
whatever. Like, you know, some of the
people who are wiring us money, they're
like, "Dude, we don't want to deal with
tenants and toilets anymore." Like, you
guys are a cashbased company. You guys
have no debt other than a little bit of
convertible bond debt. And you are doing
wedge deals. So, you're buying, you
know, below the market uh uh in terms of
the real estate like the fixer upper
single family real estate you guys are
doing. We love this. And it's a way for
us to diversify without having to do the
tenants and toilets. I'm like, "Yeah,
that's that's the point." So, I couldn't
be more excited about what what we're
building here with real estate, but I
also know real estate isn't for
everybody. So, that's why I'm like, hey,
that product could could be fun for
people to who are really concentrated to
say, hey, you know, we're we're going to
we're going to pull back some of that
single stock exposure. But, you know, I
was showing this on my uh live stream
earlier today and I just think it's
valuable to see. But, I have this before
and after of you've probably seen it
before. I was going through this. This
is just like an old sort of 70s house
with a old shag carpet. I mean, the
carpet's probably like 30 years old. And
you've seen pictures, I'm sure, of this
before of the nasty kitchen. You know,
this is always where people try to bag
on on real estate investors and they're
like, "Oh, you're just taking homes from
people who want to live in them." And
I'm like, "What? Who do you think is
going to live in this property? Like,
nobody. You think we're just going to
put server racks in this?" No. like this
home is going to be turned into a rental
for a family. We actually just rented
out to a military couple and we're like,
"Oh, this is this is really exciting."
You know, we're a big fan. Now, some
people are like, "Oh, I don't want to
rent a military cuz they can break their
lease at any point." And I'm like, "I
don't care. Military tenants are
awesome. We're such a big fan of of
renting to to Navy or military families.
Like, hell yeah, dudes and gals. Like,
y'all are amazing." But anyway, this
this is uh this is just an example of a
of a before here. And what we want to do
is we want to give people a quality
home, you know, something that's good.
So like we probably overspend, you know,
we tear everything out. We clean up any
problems. You know, on this one, we
repaired roof problems. We repaired um
uh siding issues on railings over the
garage. We then fix the issues, take out
any issues, red drywall, reumber where
we need to. New flooring, new kitchen
cabinets, brand new appliances, brand
new front yard, backyard, brand new
paint, brand new hardware, uh, you know,
kitchens, bathrooms, like everything's
gorgeous. We even go in and like epoxy
the garage. Like, who does that? Well,
we do cuz we're trying to create more
quality properties for people. And and
this is why, like I say, capitalism can
be win-win. you know, it doesn't have to
be a thing where, oh yeah, you're, you
know, some greedy landlord or whatever.
We actually think, you know, people are
getting an amazing renovation here, uh,
for for a very fair rent. If anything,
we we think we actually under value our
rentals because we would rather rent to
a qualified tenant uh than than risk
renting to somebody with maybe lower
qualifications or certainly like
sometimes we'll get applications where
people will like fudge the numbers on
their applications and it just doesn't
align with their actual numbers and
we're like uh no this is just another
property that we're working on you know
like this property I think will easily
be a 20 to 24% wedge deal but I mean
It's scary. You know who wants to walk
in this and deal with all the mildew and
mold? I do. I love it. Like I walk in, I
smell mold and all I I don't actually
smell mold. I smell money.
It's great. But yeah, I mean it's also
like I'm so grateful because we've done
all of this without uh venture
capitalists, right? Like anybody who's
asked for a pitch deck, I'm sorry they
haven't gotten it. I tell people I'm
like, "Yeah, sorry. It's it's on the
website."
You know, people don't get it. And I'm
okay with that, you know. So, we're so
grateful we've been able to just do this
fundra through really just YouTube and
with y'all. But I want to make some
promises also for YouTube. So, some
things I found on YouTube is you all
really love the morning live streams. On
average, we have about 3 to 4 thousand
of you that watch the morning course
member live stream where we analyze
technicals, the day, catalyst, and of
course, do our fundamental analysis and
sometimes we'll do real estate analysis
or answer your questions in the course
member liveream. People get lifetime
access to that. Uh people have been in
there since, you know, 2017 and they've
had lifetime access to those which is
great. You can get that at mekevin.com.
But uh what I'd like to do is uh do the
course member live streams, do our stock
morning live stream. Still do that, but
maybe a little bit less of like the day
drama in the way of making content. Like
maybe less of the Carolyn Levit,
although we haven't done a lot of that
lately. uh and and we'll go a little bit
deeper, do some more deeper dives on
some of the news. Not always, you know,
obviously if there's breaking news, I
want to pop in and cover it, but um I'd
like to get some more focus on some
deeper dives. I do think uh that'll be
very valuable. Uh and so yeah, we'll
have this final sponsor uh in this video
here, but beyond that, the next focus is
going to be focus on growing house hack,
focusing on our artificial intelligence,
growing it in a conservative way, fewer
but more quality videos, and and really
taking the extra time that I'm not
spending trying to chase every news
headline, and spending some extra time
with family, which I really look forward
to. So, those are my updates and uh this
is my last video for the year. Thanks so
much for watching. We'll see you all in
the next one. Goodbye and good luck.
>> Why not advertise these things that you
told us here? I feel like nobody else
knows about this.
>> We'll we'll try a little advertising and
see how it goes.
>> Congratulations, man. You have done so
much. People love you. People look up to
you.
>> Kevin Pra there, financial analyst and
YouTuber. Meet Kevin. Always great to
get your take.
