From The Ashes: Rebuilding The Palisades

When you dream about California Real Estate... Infiniti Pools, Guest Houses and Pacific Ocean Views, you're dreaming of the Pacific Palisades. The million dollar views, and year round weather come with much more than high property taxes. They come with tremendous risk. In this weeks episode I tell a tale of my own personal connection with "The Palisades"  The only reason I ever considered a career in Real Estate is the beauty and eclectic natuer of the homes I saw up here nearly three decades ago. An impromptu visit reminds how vital it is that the city of Los Angeles stay away from ideology and focus on infrastructure, planning and engineering. And while the fires that ravaged LA are gone for now, the danger still exists.  The sheer beauty of this Pacific hamlet was once home to Craftstmen, Mid Century Modern. and Spanish Haciendias. And while rebuilding those homes is almost assured, the future of this LA Real Estate mecca is still very much in doubt.

Digital vs Physical: Property Reimagined

In todays episode we take a look at the suprising similarities and stark differences between Digital Property versus Physical. Where Bitcoin and Single family home ownership began and where they're at are not how they were first envisioned. But mass adoption and the use of "keys" just might bring ownership back to the plebs. More attainable than ever for everyone.

Shafted - A Bitcoin Mining Story

If you found your company smack dab in the middle of three of most vital forces of the digital economy... Bitcoin, AI and Energy what would you do. If you said invest heavy you'd be both right and wrong. Take a little ride on the Bitcoin Mining Roller Coaster and hopefully you come out in better shape than me. Even still, I'm fairly certain there will be a few companies in this incredibly volatile industry that wind up incredibly wealthy and wind up shaping the world for next half century.

Reality Bites

Building our dream cabin in Big Bear, California is expensive & not for the faint of heart. Neither is Bitcoin.  The trials and tribulation of our project collided with our first Bitcoin Bear Market. But Bear Markets are for building, and we're building a new kind of Real Estate business. . While most maxis will tell you Real Estate is s-*tcoin... That's ridiculous. You and your buddy can't have a beer in the backyard of bitcoin. As the "apex Capital Asset" the likes of Michael Saylor and Junseth both make the case for my thesis. Bitcoin and Real Estate and destined for one another.   www.freddyjhomes.com [http://www.freddyjhomes.com]

Dropping In

It started with a trip to the mountains and quickly turned into a life-changing plan. The hasty purchase of a plot of land, a Realtors license and a deep dive down the Bitcoin rabbit hole. The CryptoCabin is Los Angeles Real Estate in the Digital age.  Neighborhood insights with an entrepreneurial spirit and an  underlying question.  How does the world's oldest asset merge with its newest?  Real Estate and Bitcoin?  Store of Value, Digital Currency or collateralized base layer for lending.  A fifteen year LA bull run paired with the meteoric rise of Bitcoin. It’s still very murky.  In the premiere episode I lay out the scope for the podcast. With the tagline and subjects that I ultimately hope to explore...  Property, Philosophy and the future of Value.
