For those looking for tickets for Keeneland, they have some on StubHub. Not too pricey for GA.

Keeneland sat morning at 11:00. Bought a parking pass next to stadium in orange lot for Saturday. Staying in Frankfort.

Unfortunately no bourbon tours for me as it’s a father/son trip.
We’re going to Keeneland Saturday for some races and then I think we’re just going to suck it up and buy a parking pass in one of the lots next to the stadium. There are 6 of us so splitting $200 seems reasonable for parking that close.

Def interested in any LSU designated areas though.

4 McNeese Section 412 row 6

Season ticket holder just trying to get my cost back - $50/ticket. Will split up 2/2 if needed.

What street are the bars on/main drag? Assuming walkable to stadium?

Unfortunately won’t be able to drive over until late Friday night, but staying in Frankfort.

Where is the best place to park and tailgate? Is campus walkable or is it spread out? Thinking Keeneland for a few races Saturday early afternoon and then drive in to campus to tailgate. Should we suck it up and buy a parking pass next to stadium? Or are there better spots to set up (any dedicated LSU spots?).

Bringing 12 y/o son too. Any cool things around campus or town we can do before we head out Sunday?

Good point. Haven’t thought of it from that angle.

I have a youth large one. Will be too small for my son by next winter 27 lol
When they run through the NFLSU segment of game, do they still include [redacted name]. And if so, how big will the boo’s be for that one?

Yeah I hear you. I hope what I’m trying is niche enough and different and takes a lot of real life experience that’s within it to make a difference. Feel like AI can come up with any information but tossing in human experience and real life examples might be the difference. Who knows. Cheap to create so only out some marketing dollars if it doesn’t work.
What online courses are you selling and what platform? 30+ years in commercial banking and I’ve put together a few. Just trying to find the launch platform and marketing play. So many out there.

Curious as I have a corporate job as well. I’ve been looking into a similar service business. How are you setting this up (I’m in Virginia so no completion with you).

Are you hiring a GM to run it day to day? A franchise? How do you plan to have the work completed? Are you just subbing out the work and 1099 people?

I didn’t find E*trade difficult on the paperwork side.

Just a heads up - you will need to call in and check on the paperwork after submitting the application etc. For whatever reason I had to keep calling to check. I had a few errors on my app, but they do not reach out for whatever reason. So if it gets filed with them and goes quiet, call. I did find them super easy to work with on the phone though. Also make sure they add it to your online account once it’s open. No issue there for me either.

The silence and lack of communication of the errors in their end was frustrating though but their customer service on the phone made it for it.
- HELOC if you can find one on a 2nd home. I’m commercial lending so not sure if that exist on consumer side or not

- set up an LLC

- partner with the builder but maintain all control. And when I say partner don’t give them ownership in LLC, give them a cost plus say 10% contract to build (or something like that) and then dangle a carrot in front of them (through a formal agreement) where they then get 25% kicker of the net profit when sold.

- obviously the key is least leverage as possible in case it sits and you have to fire sale it. And always look at it as a rental in a worse case scenario. If you can’t sell it and have to hold it, what’s the monthly cash flow look like.
Next bubble. Been doing this 25 years and it’s the absolute dumbest product on the market. It’s almost a lend to own product by the lenders.

I put people in them all the time and they work for certain people but these are going to pop next.
Has value yes, but not enough value to sell, pay off debt and return money to investors. when you borrower with a total capital stack of 90% or more and then rates shift on you by 300+ basis points, toss in cap rates moving upward by 50 to 100 basis points and your investors are wiped clean.
