[2026-08-23 07:25:00] Dave: Audio Message.caf Transcription: Good morning sunshine I am not sleeping in. I'm on my way to the gym. I feel somewhat better Still kinda like throat Still little sore kinda like a headache. I don't know. I don't feel quite right, but I do feel better. I think it makes me wonder if I've just got like really bad allergies or if it's like a combination of allergies and exhaust exhaustion in general. That made me feel so sick yesterday, but I'm glad we both got a day just fetch out and do fuck all I know what you mean like I'm glad you got to hang out. Chill on the couch cause you definitely needed to. And yeah bro, I've been telling you it's the TMJ thing especially since you're like fist yourself in your sleep That's definitely I'm almost certain that's what it is What else did you say? You sound like you're in like you're feeling pretty good despite being early and you only have a couple hours of sleep But a question whether or not you're really Janet to know a con like is that even music you can jam I think it's more like chilling out I don't know I'm sure you got sure he's got some bangers really get pumped up Yeah, so glad you're having fun on your drive You're probably at the airport now your flight takes off at 8:30 time travel back in time That's cool So who are these people having a baby that will make you a great aunt? Wouldn't that be like your mom's sister? For you to be the great aunt I don't know, but that reminds me. My great aunt is dying right now she's she's old. Obviously her name is gay. I've told you about them before my grade and my mom's Mom's sister Migraine that's why it's not having a baby to make anyway Yeah, so she's been on her deathbed a few times the last couple years they thought they were about to fucking euthanize her because she was so like so dead Like I mean, almost unresponsive for like months, she was just gonna die gonna die organs were failing like everything was just awful and death was upon her and somehow turns out she was like just had impacted bowels or something and They cleared that up and she like came back to life like they thought it was all kinds of other cancers and things for months and months and She ended up like coming back and being fucking fine So everybody was like oh my God, weird like written her ass off and then there was like even another one that wasn't as profound as the previous one like this incident not an incident, but like a few months, where she was declining declining declining and then after she had infection or something, and then she was like, but this time I think she's really gone I forget what it is, but she's actually on hospice now Energy drink She is she's dying, which is probably best for her at this point So yeah Gay Oh God, I feel like there was a few things. I don't want to just go back and listen again we're already almost 6 inches. Yeah, so today just probably gonna end up resting up some more I got some printing stuff to do obviously Lots of work on my side side gigs I tell you I'm gonna start thinking about start selling And do statues Again, well, I would never sell them for, but was thinking about it like that was one of my first little ventures that I never really got off the ground, but I think I'm going to now as the cannibal resurrection of interest in those Plus, I don't know if I told you, but when I give this shit away at work like my Payment request is that See if you can find you let me know how much this you are comfortably pay for something like this and not be disappointed when you got it And said the other day, I was showing him these things and He was like Oh, I don't know $70 for like the Hannaman statue and which I was like whoa 70 bucks fuck yeah that's worth making me maybe try to sell some of those things cause it's like a dollars worth of plastic five hours on the printer So I'm thinking about that and I'm also thinking about selling this stupid little keychain little skeleton keychain flex things that I do They're only like I could probably sell them for like like I'm gonna do like six dollars for 110 for two kind of thing But I just don't know how much people are I mean I guess that like would you pay $10 and +5 dollars shipping for like stupid little fucking skeleton keychain I don't know I guess people would They're due I don't know. Seems dumb to me, but and I don't know if it's worth it on my end I'm sure I mean I'm sure it is I can print. Like 15 of them at once So $10 apiece that would be 150 bucks so I guess I guess Well, that would be 150 more like 75 but even still I don't know we'll see. I'm just rambling now. Yeah, I hope you have a great flight. Have a great nap. Love you miss you. You're the best. Yeah, hope you have a great day and I can't wait to talk to you soon. Bye.

[2026-08-23 07:38:00] Sam Willis: I mean MAYBE
[2026-08-23 07:40:00] Dave: Oh and did I tell you Tarak bought a Lamborghini?
[2026-08-23 07:40:00] Dave: Yeah… one of the things I’m learning is that there aren’t a shortage of people willing to pay ridiculous amounts for literally anything.
[2026-08-23 07:41:00] Dave: You know… Tarak that got fired a couple months ago lol
[2026-08-23 07:41:00] Sam Willis: wtf!
[2026-08-23 07:41:00] Sam Willis: Exactly!!
[2026-08-23 07:41:00] Dave: I mean, he does…
[2026-08-23 07:41:00] Dave: No
[2026-08-23 07:41:00] Sam Willis: What in the actual fuck. Does he even have a job yet?
[2026-08-23 07:41:00] Sam Willis: Which is?
[2026-08-23 07:41:00] Dave: No
[2026-08-23 07:41:00] Sam Willis: Must be nice to not need to!!
[2026-08-23 07:41:00] Dave: He’s putting all his energy into his side businesses
[2026-08-23 07:41:00] Sam Willis: What in the actual fuck. Does he even have a job yet?
[2026-08-23 07:42:00] Dave: 20+ liquor stores, some real estate dealings, leading heavy industrial equipment… and some other stuff
[2026-08-23 07:44:00] Sam Willis: There are two types of business pitches: raise VC funding for an AI-powered plumber booking tool, or borrow some cash from your mom to start a company that actually fixes people’s toilets. Many enterprising folks are latter path—rejecting innovative business ideas to found unglamorous companies like carwashes or childcares, known as sweaty startups. The term was entrepreneur and content creator Nick Huber, who started a storage business while studying at Cornell University in 2011, grew it to 25 college towns, and eventually sold it for $1.7 million. Aside from running a storage private equity firm, a real estate consulting company, and a staffing agency, he now makes content advising aspiring entrepreneurs on starting low-risk businesses that don’t need to be explained to anyone. No need to reinvent the wheel Huber thinks the way to go is starting a local business and patiently growing it to achieve a solid income, an approach he details on his podcast and in his book, The Sweaty Startup: How to Get Rich Doing Boring Things: He contends that, unlike hyped Silicon Valley startups or trendy services like yoga instruction, old-school businesses are more likely to succeed, since competitors are often weak and there’s stable demand. His list of recommended businesses includes mold removal, firewood delivery, and portable toilet rental services. Huber isn’t the only one who made a business out of talking about running a business. The 24-year-old Micah Stanley—who makes up to $75k a month from operating vending machines that sell vapes—makes videos and teaches courses on how to follow in his footsteps. There’s evidence that “boring” businesses increasingly lead to wealth. The share of US income in the 1% (those making $550k+) from midsize regional businesses like flooring and plumbing has grown to 34.9% in 2022, from 30.3% in 2014, according to an analysis Young people are rolling up their sleeves: The number of applications to start a business from Gen Z has grown 66% in the year leading up to June, more than any other age group, according to the Bank of America Institute.—S
[2026-08-23 07:44:00] Sam Willis: You can read this later but speaking of side businesses….
[2026-08-23 07:45:00] Sam Willis: No doubt! And good for him. I’m jealous.
[2026-08-23 07:45:00] Dave: Eric says he (Eric) had been trying to convince him to quit working for a company and just focus on that other stuff for a while. But Tarak was weary of it - even though he clearly has enough going to not work for a company
[2026-08-23 07:51:00] Sam Willis: So so true
[2026-08-23 07:53:00] Dave: LMAO
[2026-08-23 07:54:00] Dave: That’s soooo you

[2026-08-23 07:58:00] Sam Willis: Hell no
[2026-08-23 07:59:00] Dave: Hopefully that ain’t for real
[2026-08-23 07:59:00] Dave: Lmao

[2026-08-23 11:11:00] Sam Willis: Did you just make all these or did you have them?
[2026-08-23 11:15:00] Dave: Over the last couple days

[2026-08-23 11:16:00] Dave: So…. Close….
[2026-08-23 11:25:00] Sam Willis: Last flight into Phoenix as “home”!!! Weird
[2026-08-23 11:51:00] Dave: Oh that’s right!!
[2026-08-23 11:52:00] Dave: In a couple short weeks that won’t be “home” at all
[2026-08-23 12:39:00] Sam Willis: I may have lol’d a little too much
[2026-08-23 12:42:00] Dave: I wholeheartedly agree with this
[2026-08-23 12:46:00] Sam Willis: Like we are all so medicated
[2026-08-23 12:46:00] Sam Willis: Random but I’m at CVS picking up my meds and I’m just looking inside at allllllll the meds ready for pickup and I’m just like…we’re all fucked up. lol
[2026-08-23 12:49:00] Dave: And it’s all about money
[2026-08-23 12:49:00] Dave: It’s a major problem
[2026-08-23 12:49:00] Dave: lol
[2026-08-23 13:00:00] Sam Willis: Ugh
[2026-08-23 13:10:00] Sam Willis: Think other countries are the same with their pharmacies?
[2026-08-23 13:11:00] Dave: No, they aren’t.
[2026-08-23 13:12:00] Dave: It’s your doctors job to decide what and off you need a mecation.
[2026-08-23 13:12:00] Dave: Most countries don’t allow pharmaceutical commercials. Ask your doctor about [insert new drug to keep your dick hard or lose weight].
[2026-08-23 13:13:00] Dave: But on the other side of that, drug reps wine and dine doctors ALL THE TIME to encourage them to prescribe their pills.
[2026-08-23 13:14:00] Dave: And on the other other side of that, pharmaceutical companies spend billions on lobbying congress to keep the laws working in their favor.
[2026-08-23 13:15:00] Dave: Oh and don’t forget about the other other other side where insurance companies make deals with the pharmaceutical companies on what they’ll cover, how much they’ll pay, etc.
[2026-08-23 13:16:00] Dave: It’s fucking gross and entirely rigged against us. But you know, it’s what republicans call capitalism. So what bro? You hate capitalism?? What are you a communist? Socialist? Etc
[2026-08-23 13:23:00] Sam Willis: Transcription: Oh, I haven't fully read your messages but yes, I totally agree. It's all.
