Best answer
Guys the market is tanking and your putting out podcasts on websites? How about a podcast about strategies to take advantage of this situation ?

@support They’ve lost touch. I don’t enjoy the show anymore. They’re catering to a group they think they can profit from(which hey good for them. ) I think they are losing the general population though.

@tabor couldn't agree more, I guess they been doing the show too long and aren't able helping the larger community. Can't blame them of course they put out a quality product for a lot of years. They need to get back to the roots of two guys crushing beers and throwing around ideas to help people be smart with their finances. What a time to capitalize when the world's facing one of the worst global pandemics and the market is reacting.

Do they really need to do another episode on buying stocks on sale? The principals from previous episodes still apply. What other information would you want?

I listened but I agree with the two commenters above everything to do with money has to do with the shut down. That said, the concept of running a website is something you can do while quarantined. but what about all the other aspects during this contagion environment. like shipping and other germy stuff. I think this page is run by a hired staff of moderators, not actually @browne995 and Andrew

Two thoughts. Poor timing and meh content. I looked up the flippa and came across so many red flags. Not for me. Seems like yall are missing an opportunity to talk short term and long term strategies for dealing with the current market.

Haven't heard it but having dabbled in it I can tell you just because someone was able to make success with a website doesn't mean you or I can. Theres a plethora of factors and skills that go into it. Sounds like an awful way for some inexperienced noob to waste a ton of money on a pipe dream.

And another thing. Take off that "BEFORE WE GET STARTED! " Preamble off every podcast, it's recorded at ear drum blistering level, then I gotta crank the sound back up to listen to the podcast, basic stuff people!

A great listen and honest discussion. I think you guys do address the myth that it is "passive" and that you need some type of skills (which you guys have been honest about in previous podcasts about LMM and Swim U). Looked at Flippa, and some of the sites at starting levels are kind of. well, crummy. But I would like to hear about other finance topics such as alternative to savings and CDs in light of the rate decrease, LLC vs S Corp, or other topics that may be more on the investing or personal finance vein. Thank you for the fun listen on my commute. PS: Is @browne995 selling any of his homebrew stuff?

Keep up the great work. Love listening to all of the episodes(new and old) I go back from time to time to listen to old episodes about certain situations. Same principles seem to continue to apply in good and bad times. Love hearing the raw talk between two guys trying to help others.

I thought it was super interesting. I hear a lot of gripes about this not being relevant to the times. I think people need to think a little deeper. The vast majority of the nation has been dramatically finacially impacted by COVID-19. And the reason? Not enough diversification. I know plenty of people who have full time jobs, side hustles, income properties, and stock portfolios. Souds like diversified income AND investments, right? They still got hit on all of those areas. Obviously COVID-19 isn’t something you could have planned for. But these guys just introduced a new asset class to me. So now I know one more way that i could potentially diversify my investments or my income and financially protect myself from future disasters. Plus they did one on Coronavirus on March 8th.

@thinkable4509 I completely agree, it's like beating a dead horse that's been Beaten for years, but I still feel in unprecedented times like these that a lot of new investors haven't ever seen before, it might be nice to dedicate an episode to strategies and ideas so that everyone stays calm. I know it would probably be boring for long time listeners, and at the end of the day most of us listener's are just Plebs who contribute nothing, but I feel when a crisis is occurring, increasing the frequency of episodes would be a classy touch just to keep you audience engaged, my two cents.

The website investing market is now experiencing more listings and less demand due to the pandemic - I'm expecting multiples to fall pretty soon.
