0:00.0 | everybody and welcome to the 100-year real estate investor. We're your host, Jake and Gino, |
0:11.0 | and this is the show dedicated to long-term personal financial engineering. Gino, you got a beautiful |
0:16.5 | smile on your face in sunny Florida today. How are you doing, sir? 80 degrees out, got back from the |
0:21.3 | gun range, had a little fun with the team right before the holidays, been grinding, closing a lot of |
0:26.5 | deals. Yes, we work during the holidays because that's when the deals get done, but you need to have |
0:30.3 | a little bit of fun also, right? I love it. Always having fun. We love what we do. And today, |
0:34.5 | we are going to tackle the issue of the term and burn. This is essentially |
