Inspections should be done between monthly and quarterly, with more frequent visits being better.

Without hesitation, I said :" lemme guess..... a quarter-mil". 

Every couple of quarters they have to come up with some new big thing to get investors excited about how they're going to change the industry and should continue to be valued as a mega growth company even as their numbers level out. 

He loves the extra money I take them to him ever quarter.

Bookkeepers are not accountants after all.3) Remain independent of a CPA/office doing all the work monthly/quarterly etc, analyze my own books for profitability and next ventures, report the necessary information directly to accountant for end of year tax purposes. 

I bought some fun games to put in my places, probably a quarter of them missing.

In today’s environment, I’m seeing LPs care less about glossy returns on paper and more about alignment, transparency, and downside protection.Some models that seem to resonate:1.Tiered preferred returns (higher commitments = better splits)2.Clear refinance milestones (not just ‘someday down the line’)3.Communication cadence - monthly vs. quarterly updatesFor those of you raising capital or investing passively:1.What do you find most compelling in a structure?

Going forward, we want independent book quarterly reviews C.
