It makes the worrying case that every human civilization in history has experienced a four-generation cycle, culminating in an existential crisis that reshapes society and kicks off the next cycle.Part of that has to do with building strong institutions in the midst and wake of the crisis, and those institutions gradually decaying over the next four generations.The last of those crises in our civilization – the one-two punch of the Great Depression and World War II – happened four generations ago.

Quote from @Malachi Gutt: Hi all , I want to step into the multi family and apartment building world.

The world isn't flat.We're taught that things are a certain way, and sometimes they are.

I’m not tackling world-changing events yet 😉.

Boston remains a top multifamily market, driven by its world-class educational institutions like MIT and Harvard.

I’m sure there’s something out there in FB group world.

I have been a licensed Realtor in Atlanta for the past 9 years and am now entering the world of investing myself.

I work primarily in multifamily and short-term rental investing — and over time, I’ve had many conversations with investors about the unfiltered side of real estate: the deals that didn’t go according to plan.Whether it’s unexpected costs, regulatory curveballs, or guest and tenant issues that test your patience, these stories always seem to reveal the same truth — the best investors aren’t just great at finding opportunities; they’re great at managing chaos.Through my investor interviews and real-world deal analyses, I’ve noticed that every “horror story” tends to leave behind one valuable thing: a framework for better decision-making.

The world needs you, truly!

I'm not personally too worried about the world passing me by.
