What does it actually take to scale a business, investment platform, or balance sheet toward $100M?

After 19 years of running Family Office Club, hosting 300+ live events, and learning from more than 1,500 investor talks, Richard C. Wilson breaks down 10 of the most important strategies for scaling faster and building long-term wealth.

These are not theories pulled from a textbook. They are patterns observed from family offices, centimillionaires, billionaires, founders, capital raisers, and investors operating at a high level.

In this presentation, Richard covers how to:

• Position yourself so you stand out in a crowded market  
• Acquire strategic chokepoints that create a competitive advantage  
• Get closer to family offices, investors, and high-level operators  
• Use coopetition, joint ventures, and strategic partners to scale faster  
• Structure deals more intelligently instead of simply giving away equity  
• Build trust and credibility with sophisticated investors  
• Put yourself in position to see deals first, exclusively, or at better valuations  
• Use AI and role-specific intelligence systems to amplify your team  
• Build the investor materials sophisticated capital expects  
• Move from simply operating a business to scaling your balance sheet and opportunities

The goal is not to work harder at the same game everyone else is playing. It is to improve your positioning, proximity, intelligence, deal flow, and leverage so you can play a fundamentally different game.

Family Office Club gives members three core advantages: proximity to family offices and ultra-wealthy investors, superintelligence through investor knowledge and AI tools, and strategies to scale businesses, deals, and balance sheets.

A former AI engineer and Intel engineering executive, who worked on early large language models years before ChatGPT existed, shares the moment he told his CEO that Intel was losing the AI race to Nvidia... and got laughed off. He lays out a bold thesis: most enterprises will run on 80% AI and 20% human labor within five years, and why he believes this won't shrink the economy but multiply it several times over. The panel closes with a live, half-serious debate on whether AI itself should be taxed. Filmed at a Family Office Club single family office summit, part of FOC's 50+ AI tools used across its investor community of 16 million members.

A real estate platform investor operating on both the equity and debt side explains how his firm has spent 14 months acquiring non-performing multifamily loans below replacement cost... and why execution, not acquisition price, is what actually creates returns. He breaks down why his team is rolling up debt platforms and mortgage brokerages, and delivers a candid take on why most capital-raise pitches fail: founders don't invest the time to understand what the investor is actually looking for. Part of Family Office Club's single family office mandate series, drawing on insights from over $1B in community transactions across 19 years.

A second-generation real estate investor who has structured over $2.3 billion in equity capital shares hard-won lessons from deals like Nashville Yards ($4B) and an Austin property later acquired by Elon Musk. He makes the case for hard assets over financial engineering as markets transition, discusses restructuring distressed multifamily debt, and delivers a stark warning about capital concentration in the years ahead. Captured live at a Family Office Club single family office summit, one of 300+ events FOC has hosted for its 16 million-member global investor community.

A New York City-based single family office investor focused on growth-stage venture reveals the one filter that matters more than the technology itself: the founder. She explains why her firm defers technical diligence to outside experts on deep tech, why timeline-to-exit matters more than "the most incredible technology in the world," and shares a real story about walking away from a game-changing climate tech deal over one issue: leadership readiness. Featured as part of Family Office Club's ongoing single family office mandate series, drawn from over 1,250 investor talks across 19 years of FOC events. Curious how family offices vet founders before writing a check? FamilyOffices.com has more on how to get in front of investors like this.

A Dubai-based single family office CEO, now leading his family's third-generation investment operation, breaks down why sustainability can't be an "indifferent" answer in any GP conversation... and why that's non-negotiable at the first meeting. This episode covers commercial real estate acquired below replacement cost, renewable energy investments spanning solar to hydrogen electrolyzers, and an inside look at industrial waste recycling as an overlooked asset class. Filmed live at a Family Office Club single family office summit, part of the 300+ events FOC has hosted over 19 years for its 16 million registered members.

A former NFL offensive lineman who once weighed 325 pounds now runs a tech company involved in buying and selling European football clubs worldwide. He breaks down the risk-taking and network-building that fueled his transition from the league into business, why mentorship is the ultimate cheat code, and how growing up with a single mother shaped his definition of purpose.

About the speaker:
Parker Graham is the founder and CEO of Vestible, a pioneering platform that is redefining how professional sports clubs raise capital and how everyday investors participate in sports ownership. With a background that uniquely bridges athletics, wealth management, and institutional finance, Parker brings an unmatched perspective to one of the most compelling opportunities in global sports: opening the ownership table to a wider world without asking clubs to sacrifice control or culture.

Parker and his team have worked closely with club owners, front-office executives, and ownership groups across Europe to design investment structures that are compliant, scalable, and aligned with each club's goals—while giving investors a regulated, transparent way to buy into the future of professional sports organizations. Under his leadership, Vestible has built the first regulated investment platform enabling professional clubs to raise capital, while giving investors the ability to buy, hold, and sell a stake tied to a club's future sale outcome.

Before founding Vestible, Parker led ventures at the intersection of fintech and capital markets after a successful career in college and professional athletics. After his playing days, he transitioned into the financial world, where he spent years as a wealth advisor to high-net-worth families and institutions. He specialized in alternative assets, complex investment structures, and philanthropic giving strategies.

That intersection—private capital, professional sports, and the investors who've always been locked out of both—ultimately inspired Vestible to be what it is today.

In this exclusive interview, Richard C. Wilson sits down with Saeed to explore his journey from entrepreneur and family business executive to one of the leading figures in global startup investing.

Saeed also discusses his famous $100,000 investment in Dropbox, which ultimately returned $36 million; how he evaluates founders and startups; the importance of domain knowledge and execution; and why he believes artificial intelligence could create one of the biggest productivity shifts in modern history.

The conversation also explores corporate venture capital, university startup programs, AI, family offices, building relationships with leading entrepreneurs and CEOs, and Saeed's vision for the next decade of technology and innovation.

A former professional basketball player who competed overseas in Germany opens up about the discipline that built his career, the financial mistake that cost him early on, and his next chapter: launching an NIL academy and performance facility in Los Angeles alongside a former Laker, plus a docuseries following young athletes through the realities of Name, Image, and Likeness deals.

A family relations director explains how staying disciplined in one investment lane can also mean missing generational opportunities like early AI bets, and why bringing the next generation in as genuine innovation partners (not just heirs) is what keeps multi-generational wealth resilient. The panel closes with the fee-structuring reality of when to pay $2,000-an-hour specialists versus mid-range project managers, and the one rule every operator on this panel was taught on day one: don't lose money. Family Office Club has connected 16M+ members and facilitated $1B+ in transactions over 19 years and 300+ events, built on exactly this kind of hard-won operating wisdom. What's the one rule you were taught before you managed your first dollar of someone else's capital?

https://familyoffices.com/

A trust and estates attorney explains why so many wealth holders set up asset protection or estate tax planning trusts and then quietly break the rules that make them work, plus the governance failures (no family council, no investment policy statement) that wreck multi-generational wealth long before any lawsuit does. You'll also hear the real net worth thresholds (roughly $250M to start a single family office, $750M-$1B before hiring an internal CIO) that determine when a family actually needs this structure. Family Office Club has spent 19 years building the operating playbook for family offices at every stage, from first hire to billion-dollar CIO teams, across 300+ events and 16M+ members. Does your family have a written investment policy statement? Most don't.

https://familyoffices.com/

A family office investor explains why a 1970s multifamily deal in Dallas looks identical to one in Houston or San Antonio, and why having an actual investment thesis (not just chasing AI or the herd) is what separates sponsors who get funded from sponsors who get ignored. Real examples include an industrial outdoor storage thesis built around inflation uncertainty. Family Office Club's community has closed over $1B in transactions across our 16M+ member network because operators here learn to think like allocators, not just pitch like fundraisers. If you had 60 seconds with a family office investor, could you explain your thesis without using the word "AI"?

https://familyoffices.com/

A family office investor breaks down why humility beats overconfidence every time a sponsor walks in the door, including the real story of a first-time textile mill conversion that nearly got rejected on the spot. You'll hear exactly how trusted-source referrals and co-investment due diligence sharing speed up decisions across multiple family offices at once. Family Office Club has hosted 300+ events over 19 years connecting 16M+ registered members with the operators and capital allocators who move real deals. This is the kind of conversation that happens at every one of our events. What would make YOUR deal stand out in a room full of skeptical allocators?

Coming into serious wealth changes everything. But almost nobody tells you the right things at the right time.
In the closing segment of this Single Family Office Summit panel, four principals share what they actually wish someone had told them - and the answers are not what you'd expect. One panelist explains why vulnerability is the fastest path to real trust, and why he acts first before asking investors for anything. Another issues a challenge to rethink pain: wealth creates comfort, comfort creates complacency, and complacency quietly erodes what built the fortune in the first place. A 45-year veteran makes the case that not everyone who comes into wealth should build a family office - and that the technology now exists to get all the benefits without the infrastructure. And a multifamily office founder argues that the first question has nothing to do with investing at all: Who are you? What are your values? What does this money give you the freedom for?
The moderator closes with a standard he has used for 11 years: unless you're somebody he'd leave his kids with, trust isn't on the table. That's the bar.

Everybody wants to do business with family offices. Almost nobody understands what actually builds trust with them.
This panel goes deeper than the usual advice. One of the moderators opens with a story from Milken - a capital raiser so focused on the opportunity, he forgot to wash his hands. He lost the room before he opened his mouth. From there, four family office principals break down what trust actually looks like from their side of the table. A 45-year veteran of the national family office space explains why relationships and co-investment always come before the deal. A multifamily office founder shares a trust equation - reliability plus credibility plus intimacy divided by self-interest - that predicts how fast trust accelerates in any relationship. And one panelist shares a story that changed everything: his brother's stage four lymphoma diagnosis, six hours before becoming a father, and how that shifted the way he evaluates every person he works with.
If you raise capital, manage money, or are building relationships with family offices, this is the conversation that matters.

4 family offices. 4 completely different strategies. One honest conversation about where serious capital is going right now.
In this panel from the Single Family Office Summit, a family office principal who built his wealth through Silicon Valley tech exits breaks down why he calls his approach "boring" - and why that's the point. Private credit, real estate, and a floor of steady income that funds high-conviction angel bets in defense tech. Another panelist explains how his family invests based on stories - backing art and crypto not as speculation but as instruments of human nature. A family office representative managing two generations shares what's next in energy, water, and why the next generation of chips will use 70 percent less energy and reshape the entire data center thesis. And a multifamily office founder makes the case that AI already changed the game - one analysis that used to take 60 hours now takes 5 minutes - and that the real edge today is at the intersection of investing and tax.

What's the one asset class you think is most overlooked right now?

https://familyoffices.com/

Private credit is one of the most talked-about asset classes in the family office world right now - but is the hype justified?
In this panel discussion from the Single Family Office Summit, three family office principals share exactly where they stand on private credit in today's market - and the answers are more divided than you'd expect. One says it's nearly impossible to underwrite properly at current lending rates. Another is avoiding it entirely for cross-border capital. And a third has 60% of their portfolio allocated there - with a very specific reason why.
What you'll hear in this episode:

Why one family office principal says private credit lenders are charging 15% with insufficient due diligence
How Asian family offices are approaching - and avoiding - private credit allocations
Why "private credit is not created equal" and what that means for your portfolio
The case for looking at public markets instead of private right now
What it really takes to underwrite private credit comfortably at scale

Family Office Club is the world's largest investor community - 19 years, 300+ events, 16M registered members, 18.5M social followers, and over $1B in community transactions.

The final segment of this Single Family Office Summit panel delivers some of the most practical insights of the day. A brand strategist and communications founder opens with a direct challenge to anyone raising capital: stop leading with everything you do. Investors have roughly eight seconds of attention available. Lead with what matters to them, earn the next minute, and work from there.
A cross-border family office advisor follows with a framework for working with Asian capital: lead with relationships not transactions, recognize that every family defines risk and value differently, and always address the opportunity cost question head-on. The session closes with an investor's core operating principle - the most limited resource in business isn't capital, it's attention. Knowing how to balance short-term execution with long-term strategic vision is the question that separates operators from builders.

What's one thing you'd want every capital raiser in the room to hear before their next investor conversation?

https://familyoffices.com/

What do you actually learn after scaling and selling a major platform? In this episode, two investors who have done it give their most honest answers. The first says the single rule that has never failed him is this: if a co-investor won't put their own money in, he walks. Trust and aligned incentives aren't nice-to-haves. They're the entire filter.
The second shares the structural lesson his institutional capital partner taught him during a major platform build: think about what you're building as if you'll own it for 100 years. Companies built for the long term generate the kind of cash flow that attracts serious buyers when the time comes - and the ones that don't rarely find a clean exit.

No Bitcoin position is not a neutral position anymore. Richard Wilson sits down with Eric Runge, a Bitcoin-focused RIA founder and active Family Office Club member, in a conversation that started the same week a $1.5 billion trust company reached out to Family Office Club asking who in the community specializes in institutional Bitcoin strategy.

Family Office Club has run 300+ investor events over 19 years for a 16 million member community, and this episode breaks down how family offices are actually approaching Bitcoin today: on-chain versus ETF exposure, sizing frameworks, custody decisions, the payment-rail case via Square, and why "no position" has quietly become a position of its own. Eric also shares the step-by-step process he walks families through before they buy a single Bitcoin, and his framework for separating real use cases from hype.

This CIO co-founded a housing-focused investment firm after scaling one of the largest single-family rental platforms in the country alongside a major institutional capital partner. The playbook hasn't changed: find fragmented, alternative residential asset classes where institutional-quality operations haven't yet arrived, and build the platform that gets them there.
In this episode, he breaks down why student housing and senior housing are the firm's most active deployment targets right now - and why the national narrative on student housing misses what's actually happening at the market and school level. He also explains the platform-building DNA behind the firm's strategy, why cash flow drives every underwriting decision, and what "doing well and doing good" actually looks like when you're investing in housing for underserved residents.

This is the Family Office Club Monthly Hot Seat Webinar from August 2026. Every month I get on live with verified members, Charter members, and community participants to answer questions in real time - no slides, no script, just direct Q&A on whatever challenge is in front of you right now.

Topics covered in this session include how to raise capital for a protein business with 2 million pounds a month of beef processing - including finding the right investors in agricultural Midwest markets like Omaha, structuring a custom deal for a strategic anchor investor, and carving out a fabrication and distribution entity as a separate capital raise. We also covered what a corporate venture capital group is and how to find one inside a large company, how deal origination teams at private equity firms work, and how to use the FOC Investor Pipeline Builder to find the top 50 investor leads in any city by industry focus.

Additionally we covered the value-first relationship strategy for building connections with centimillionaires and billionaires - including a real example of a member who approached a high-net-worth individual by simply saying how can I help you and built a meaningful relationship from that conversation.

We also discussed using Claude to scan and summarize bootcamp notes, the FOC AI operating system now being rebranded as Hyper Intelligent, and the launch of Dr. Dewey - our Dewey Instant Due Diligence tool adapted specifically for doctors and dentists evaluating medical, healthcare, and investment deals.

Upcoming events mentioned: Silicon Valley Summit September 24th and the Family Office Super Summit in Fort Lauderdale December 15th to 17th with 112 speakers over 3 days.

This investor didn't start in energy. He started as a real estate borrower, learned the mechanics of private lending from the inside, and then made a deliberate decision to become the lender. Today, his firm deploys capital into residential real estate loans and has quietly built a portfolio of strategic energy investments - including a hydrogen technology company that has earned recognition from the National Science Foundation, the Department of Energy, and produced a Fulbright Scholars Award-winning researcher.
In this episode, he explains the principle that guides every pivot: only enter an investment when your existing resources, network, and experience create real mutual benefit - not just financial return. He also shares why he doesn't consider himself an angel investor despite operating in one of the most active startup markets in the country.

This investor's edge isn't capital - it's communication. As a brand strategist and communications founder, she has helped take companies to multi-billion dollar IPOs and record-breaking public market debuts. She backs founders she believes in and uses brand strategy to amplify their growth from the inside. Her investment thesis is simple: if a company can't connect on a human level, the product doesn't matter.
In this episode, she introduces the B2H framework - Business to Human - and explains why the most common mistake she sees from founders is leading with everything they do instead of what the investor actually cares about. She breaks down why eight seconds is all you have to make an impression, and what a memorable soundbite actually looks like in a capital-raising context.

We just had a billionaire keynote at our Capital Raising Bootcamp here in Dallas at the RSM offices. He has a couple of publicly traded companies and spent 40 years building his portfolio. Here are the notes I wanted to share from what he said on stage.
Build a super diverse skill set. You have to be a decathlete to be successful raising capital, building a platform, and scaling something.
Underwrite conservatively. If a deal does not make sense and you do not even know why - back away. Say no. Be conservative. Do not load up on too much debt.
Do right by investors by not overpromising. Instead of saying this is the best deal in the world - start with the problems. Start with the issues. Say here is what I am going to do and here is why I am confident. That is more transparent, more authentic, and it actually works better.
Be passionate and high energy. If you are not passionate about what you are doing why should anyone else care? Tone of voice matters. A billionaire said that. To me that was super interesting because so many people are so focused on the hard parts - IRR, LTV, debt rates - and miss the human side of closing deals.
Family offices are medium and long-term focused. In his case he wants cash flow from day one and needs to see a path to a billion dollars. And he thinks about every relationship as a long-term one. He will give the other side a slight win in a tough negotiation because his real win is doing ten deals with that person. He wants to be the first phone call next time they sell a portfolio - not the last. That is the family office mindset. It is a small world. People talk. Word gets around.

After 11 years working across two single family offices in industries spanning oil and gas, media, sports, and healthcare, this advisor launched her own boutique family office advisory firm. In under a year, she onboarded three Asian family clients and is now actively helping them allocate into U.S. markets - including a live mandate from a Hong Kong family office for positions in major private technology companies.
In this episode, she shares how cross-border family office advising actually works - the role of trust, the challenge of translating not just language but risk perception, and why Asian families define risk as permanent capital loss rather than market volatility. She also flags a major macro signal most U.S. investors aren't watching closely enough: a $140 billion government push into venture capital in Asia and what that means for regional stock exchange access.

This investor has spent decades doing one thing: buying right. From a 10,000-unit apartment portfolio sold to a major real estate buyer, to a pharmaceutical company purchased for $18M and exited at $358M, to two insurance companies flipped for significant returns - the track record is built on cash flow, not speculation. In this episode, he shares his full investment history and explains why today's market has made it nearly impossible to find the kinds of companies he used to target.With interest rates reshaping private equity valuations and private credit crowding out traditional buyers, he breaks down exactly where he's looking now: LP secondaries, continuation funds, and public market alternatives that offer the same exposure at a discount. If you're a capital allocator trying to find value in a premium-priced market, this conversation is essential.Recorded at the Single Family Office Summit, hosted by Family Office Club - the largest investor club in the family office space. 19 years, 300+ events, and over $1 billion in community transactions.

Most athletes talk about what they've done. These four are talking about what they're building next. Dan wants capital partners to scale multifamily across Dallas over the next decade. Alvin is looking for partners with intelligence, initiative, and integrity for syndications and M&A. Otis has a vision for a micro wellness resort - saunas, cold plunge, health tech, community, built into land outside Austin. And Bronson wants to keep connecting people to the tax and family office strategies that change how athletes think about money.

This is the closing segment of one of the most candid pro athlete panels Family Office Club has hosted in 19 years and 300+ events. Daniel Pewter closes with the story of his 5-year-old son at jiu-jitsu - getting bloody, watching a 12-year-old sit on the sideline with an ice pack, and choosing to get back on the mat anyway. The lesson isn't just for kids. It's for your team, your family, and the people you're building with right now.
These are the conversations that happen when investors and operators get in the same room. Family Office Club has connected over $1 billion in community transactions. If you want to be in a room like this, where do you start?

Fear paralyzed him on Bitcoin. A decade in prestigious law firms surrounded by smart, unhappy people showed him what success without purpose looks like. And a stranger in Home Depot delivered a message that changed the direction of his business. Otis Grigsby played 6 years in the NFL, practiced law at large firms for 6 years, and is now part-legal, part-growth, part-strategy at his wife's health tech marketing agency - and watching ChatGPT recommend their services to strangers without any programming on their end.
In this episode, Otis delivers one of the most honest 10 minutes on this stage: fear is an absolute killer, it paralyzes your training, it makes you forget everything you've built - and it shows up daily whether you have a two-year-old at home or a nine-figure deal on the table. He talks about missing the Bitcoin run, what Christmas in big law looks like when IBM needs a deal closed, and the four-month delay before he finally followed the advice that unlocked his business. Family Office Club has hosted 300+ events over 19 years and $1 billion+ in community transactions - Otis is the kind of operator you only meet in rooms like this.

8% of pro athletes are broke within 3 years of retirement. Dan Breezy watched it happen to his friends and decided to do something different. After multiple X Games gold medals in urban snowboarding, he took the same "inch wide, mile deep" focus that made him one of the best in the world at one discipline - and applied it to becoming one of the best value-add multifamily operators in Dallas-Fort Worth, working alongside mentors like Ken McElroy and Bobby Castro.

In this episode, Dan breaks down the visualization principle that let him land tricks he had never attempted before - seeing it perfectly in his mind's eye before he ever hit the jump. He connects that directly to real estate underwriting: if you can't see the answer clearly, stay back. He shares the painful lesson of running too optimistically without accounting for market cycles, how to structure debt based on where you are in the cycle, and why getting crushed in taxes as an athlete was the catalyst for everything. Family Office Club has hosted 300+ investor events and connected investors across every asset class - Dan is a case study in what specialization looks like at the highest level.

Most people think diversification means spreading your attention. Alvin calls it focused diversity - mastering one thing per day so that by Sunday, you have a full tool belt. That framework took him from the NFL and CFL to aerospace engineering to running operations on the M&A side, taking $10 million companies to $100 million valuations, while building a ground-up 4-unit multifamily development in Los Angeles.
In this episode, Alvin Scioneaux, Jr. unpacks the three I's that have driven every career move: intelligence (sharpening your mindset), initiative (moving before you're ready), and integrity (your environment - you are the average of the five people around you). He shares his biggest financial lesson - partnering with people who don't carry all three - and breaks down what he's currently building in real estate syndications and M&A. Family Office Club has facilitated over $1 billion in community transactions at 300+ events, and Alvin is exactly the kind of multi-discipline operator our network was built to surface.
You don't have to choose one lane. But you do have to master the framework first. Watch this episode and ask yourself - do the five people closest to you have intelligence, initiative, and integrity?

Your NFL contract is an exit. The ultra-high-net-worth understand that - and they plan for it. Bronson spent 7 years in the NFL as a W-2 employee, got crushed on taxes his first year sitting in muni bonds at 3%, and decided to spend the rest of his career learning exactly how family offices and top operators structure their wealth. Now he's the one opening those doors for other athletes.

In this episode, Bronson breaks down the exact mindset rituals he used to stay present during competition - writing 2-3 actionable words before every practice, staying out of fear (which lives in the future) and regret (which lives in the past). He shares the story of his father coming from Tonga at 8 years old with cardboard in the bottom of his shoes, and how remembering that story keeps him grounded, hungry, and humble. Family Office Club has connected capital raisers and family offices at 300+ events over 19 years - athletes like Bronson are exactly who this community was built for.

What is the most costly financial mistake athletes make after signing their second contract? Bronson has the answer, and it will change how you think about your own exit.

The closing segment of the last panel of the day — and one of the most honest. A family office investor argues that most people are walking past million-dollar opportunities every day: the car wash owner with no succession plan, the small hotel operator whose kids just want the cash. These businesses can be acquired without large amounts of capital if you bring the right non-cash currencies — experience, network, operational expertise. A second-gen family office investor closes with a reminder that AI is accelerating the pace of everything, human connection is becoming the scarcest resource, and staying close to people building in your industry is the real edge. The final word: show up every day present, energized, and grateful — and pursue the people who deserve it.

The most tactically dense episode of the panel. A former Air Force pilot who built the US military's AFWERX innovation program explains exactly how he structures deals around government contracts — using the Electra hybrid electric aircraft as a live example: $65M pre-money valuation, with a $30M Air Force contract not factored into the price. His fund put its check in escrow, the government signed, and the investment dropped in at an automatic discount because government revenue adds no dilution. Then: warrants, options, and capped valuations as tools to manufacture 80-95% discounts. Closes with the $100K question — four panelists answer where they would put their first $100K today: distressed assets and land, India pre-IPOs doubling every year, leveraged acquisitions of aging boomer businesses, and an AI-plus-electricians play that Richard says nobody is doing yet.

Four insights in one episode, each from a different voice. A second-gen family office investor says ego is the single biggest destroyer of wealth — it makes you miss small details, over-rely on past success, and walk into deals you should have walked away from. An audience member introduces private placement life insurance — a custom IRS-compliant policy structure that lets your family office hold alternative assets in a tax-deferred environment. A software investor explains why poor board governance is the number one reason deals go sideways, and why preferred shareholders need a board seat to protect themselves. And a former IBM M&A executive warns on cap tables: a company he backed went from a $1.4M valuation to $350M — and investors were still only 4x up because of how the cap table was structured from day one.

 Hi, Richard Wilson here, founder of Family Office Club. I just wrapped our Monthly Live Forum on AI, and I wanted to make sure this one actually gets used, not just watched.

Here's what I walked through in this session: why context engineering matters two to three times more than prompt engineering right now, and how to actually build it into your own workflow instead of just chatting with ChatGPT or Claude like it's a search engine. I showed you the three levels of AI maturity most founders get stuck at level one on, and how we built what I call "Intelligence Centers," one Claude project per role on my team, each with four to seven tools built specifically for that person's job. No more guessing which tool to use for what.

I also introduced you to Clara, our AI pitch architect who will critique your one-liner, your pitch deck, and your due diligence questionnaire against 1,500 investor talks recorded on our stages. And Dewey and Vetti, our due diligence and real estate stress-testing tools that can rank ten pitch decks against each other in minutes. I explained why a one-line pitch, a 60 to 90 second founder video, and a 30-question due diligence FAQ will put you ahead of 99% of the people currently raising capital, because almost nobody has all three in place.

We also got into real questions from the room: how to structure a deal when you don't have a track record or a full team yet, how family offices actually vet trust before they'll wire you a dollar, and why the relationship matters roughly twice as much as the merit of the deal itself.

A little about us, so you know why I'm confident saying any of this: I started Family Office Club 19 years ago in 2007. We've hosted 300+ investor events, we host 30+ events a year across the US, we've got 16 million registered members across our LinkedIn groups, 18.5 million followers across social, and our community has closed over $1 billion in deals together. We built 50+ AI tools specifically for founders and investors, based on 1,500 investor talks from our own stages, not random internet data.

If you want the full deployment kit for what I showed here, meaning the exact Claude project instructions, prompts, and skills my team uses daily, or you want to see our next event schedule, here's how:

What's the one thing slowing down your capital raise right now?

Three rapid-fire insights that the room had not heard before. First: gross revenue royalty deals — a family office founder who has done 17 of them explains why investors love them, almost nobody uses them, and how a dental practice scaled to $30M in revenue returned the full initial investment through monthly cash flow royalties before the exit even happened. Second: deal terms are where most investors get quietly destroyed — preference shares and waterfall structures can leave LPs with nothing even when a deal performs. Third: Grizz Ali reveals that almost no family office is depreciating its intellectual property — a legal, massively underused strategy that simultaneously reduces tax liability and increases balance sheet value when seeking a line of credit.

Five family office investors and operators introduce themselves — a former Air Force pilot who built the US military's innovation arm, a second-gen family office focused on drone and security tech, a distressed real estate fund manager, a first-gen family office founder who invented a sleep supplement, and a 25-year PE managing partner. The intros lead directly into a live deal breakdown on distressed office space: a 200,000 sq ft Chicago building that traded at $25M bought for $2.5M, and a 390,000 sq ft downtown Chicago building that was a $160M deal acquired for $18.5M. The thesis: you don't need it to rebound 100%. Buying at these prices, 50% is more than enough.

The most candid segment of the panel. A private investment banker says the most expensive mistake he made was not paying for expert legal counsel — and explains why a cheap lawyer costs more on the back end than a good one does upfront. A family office CFO cites his first private investment loss to make a principle: founders must have skin in the game and LP capital must come back first, always — the Richest Man in Babylon principle applied to modern private investing. A serial entrepreneur says his most painful lesson was firing himself too late from his own company. And the banker closes with a real deal: a company that sold for $90 million where the founder walked away with $2 million — because of how capital was raised and what the terms looked like. Final note: if you're raising seed capital, your first check almost never comes from a stranger — it comes from your own network.

https://familyoffices.com/

Three things every investor needs to hear. First: a banker flags the growing SPV-on-SPV problem in today's VC market — 24-hour close emails, unverifiable shares, unvested stock — and explains why reading the actual paperwork has never mattered more. Second: on the PE side, capital scarcity means investors are winning more board seats, tighter terms, and preferential return structures. Third — and most shareable — a serial entrepreneur delivers a direct warning: AI is a tsunami, the window to get ahead of it is five years or less, and the operators who integrate it first will eat everyone else's lunch across every industry. His point: this is arguably the world's biggest arbitrage opportunity, and most people are still asleep.

Post-2022, valuations have come back to earth — but how do you actually price an early stage or pre-revenue deal right now? This segment breaks it down: a family office CFO explains when EBITDA multiples work and when a convertible note is the smarter tool, giving investors the flexibility to clip a coupon if the deal underperforms or convert to equity if it overperforms. Then a serial entrepreneur explains how he acquired 14 franchise locations at $5,000 each — against a $250,000 market rate — by building a relationship with the franchisor instead of the franchisee. A deep tech founder closes with how phased milestone validation replaces balance sheet engineering for pre-revenue companies.

The most shareable segment of the panel. Each investor shares the most memorable pitch they ever received — a collapsible cup prototype that wowed on every fact but failed basic physics, a 12-year-old's DJ business PowerPoint that hit credibility, clarity, and whimsy better than most professionals, and a founder who went from childhood paralysis to top-10 Halo gamer to tech CEO. Then the full panel answers the question every new capital raiser needs: how do you attract serious investors when you have no track record? Six investors, six answers — and a close that every founder should hear.

Most investors see 100+ deals a week and give each one-pager 10 seconds. The panel critiques real one-pagers live — a tech-driven safe deposit box company that nailed the name but buried the product, a luxury real estate fund missing its hold time and minimum investment, a healthcare firm with a billion-dollar track record that still couldn't answer what it actually does, and one that finally scores well. The rule that runs through every critique: graphs not paragraphs.

In this session, Richard C. Wilson shares the top insights from a private investor and family office event — covering deal structuring, capital raising, distribution, and what actually separates successful investors from everyone else.

From billion-dollar exits to real-world deal mistakes, this talk breaks down the patterns, strategies, and mindset shifts that came up repeatedly across panels, fireside chats, and investor conversations.

You’ll learn:

Why deal structure often matters more than strategy
How top investors evaluate opportunities (and avoid mediocre deals)
The importance of distribution, positioning, and execution
What separates high-velocity entrepreneurs from everyone else
Why most capital raisers fail to prepare properly (and how to fix it)

The session also highlights new resources inside the investor community, including AI tools, deal structuring frameworks, and ways to improve your capital raising strategy.

If you're raising capital, building a platform, or working with investors, this is a powerful breakdown of what actually works — straight from real investor conversations.

https://familyoffices.com/

In this presentation, Richard C. Wilson breaks down how sophisticated investors and family offices think about deal flow, positioning, and strategic opportunities in 2026.

He explains why promising high returns is not enough to attract serious capital — and why trust, clarity, unique positioning, and “anomaly deal flow” matter more when investors are reviewing hundreds or even thousands of opportunities each year.

This talk covers how to identify one-in-500 or one-in-1,000 deals, build a unique capital proposition, attract higher-quality opportunities, source deals first and exclusively, and position yourself as more than just a checkbook.

You’ll also hear why in-person meetings, niche focus, strategic choke points, and clear one-liners can help investors and founders stand out in an increasingly competitive market.

https://familyoffices.com/

In this presentation, Richard C. Wilson shares how artificial intelligence is being used to improve investor due diligence, structure transactions, screen opportunities, build stronger platforms, and save hundreds of hours of work.

He introduces Investor Super Intelligence, a specialized AI toolkit built for founders, investors, family offices, and capital raisers. Unlike general AI tools, these tools are trained around investor conversations, deal structures, pitch feedback, due diligence frameworks, and family office strategy.

Topics include AI-powered pitch analysis, deal structuring, credibility checks, real estate deal vetting, due diligence reports, investor positioning, faster decision-making, and how specialized AI can help investors avoid wasted time and focus on higher-quality opportunities.

https://familyoffices.com/

In this presentation, Richard C. Wilson breaks down the “Family Office Chessboard” approach — a strategy for building leverage through strategic partnerships, multi-dimensional assets, choke points, distribution, and niche monopoly positioning.

Instead of simply buying cash flow, Richard explains how family offices and serious operators can design their own game board, acquire strategic assets, create information advantages, and build relationships that compound over time.

Topics include adding value first, moving from operator to owner, building self-liquidating lead generation, using media and events as strategic assets, creating niche monopolies, and identifying choke points that can transform an entire business model.

In this fireside chat, Richard C. Wilson sits down with Marcus Ridgway of F6 Partners to break down the real architecture behind scaling with institutional capital.

What does it really take to think and perform like a Navy SEAL?

In this episode, we break down 5 powerful mindset shifts used by elite Navy SEALs that you can apply immediately to your business, investing strategy, and daily execution.

Drawing from insights shared on stage by retired Navy SEAL and leadership coach William Branham, who has trained over 50,000 professionals. This conversation is all about compressing decades of discipline, focus, and resilience into practical strategies you can use today.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

How to focus on one critical area and systematically dominate it
Why incremental mastery beats trying to fix everything at once
How SEALs think under pressure and how to apply that to business decisions
The importance of clarity, repetition, and execution speed
How to build a mindset that compounds results over time

If you’re an entrepreneur, investor, or operator looking to level up your discipline, decision-making, and mental toughness. This is a must-listen.

Remember, top performers don’t try to improve everything at once… they identify the highest-impact area and relentlessly execute.

In this episode, Daniel Puder — undefeated MMA fighter and $1M WWE Tough Enough winner — shares how he transitioned from professional sports into building purpose-driven, profitable businesses that are transforming lives.

After gaining national attention for standing up against bullying, Daniel built a nonprofit that evolved into a government-funded initiative training law enforcement, educators, and military personnel. He then scaled that mission into a private, state-funded school network serving some of the most underserved communities in America — including foster care youth, formerly incarcerated students, and homeless children.

With a 97% graduation rate across micro-schools in multiple states, Daniel breaks down how combining impact with strong business fundamentals can create both meaningful change and scalable returns.

He also shares:

Why “significance breeds success” is his core philosophy
How he structures investment opportunities in education
The future of school choice and private education models
His approach to mindset, family, and long-term fulfillment

This is a powerful conversation on building businesses that generate both profit and purpose — while solving real societal problems.

I’m Richard C. Wilson, founder of the Family Office Club. Over the past 19 years, we’ve hosted 300+ live events, produced 3,000+ videos, and built an audience of over 18.5 million followers.

Here’s what we’re seeing right now…

AI is making it incredibly easy to create written content—but that’s exactly why it’s becoming less valuable.

In this new environment, authenticity matters more than perfection. And video content is much harder to fake, replicate, or mass-produce at scale.

That’s why we’re shifting heavily toward video—short form, long form, event clips, and direct investor communication.

If you’re building a content funnel, raising capital, or growing your platform, I’d strongly recommend focusing 5x more on video than you did just a few years ago.

You can always turn video into articles, white papers, and AI training data—but starting with video gives you a real edge.

If you want better investors, better clients, better deal flow, and more inbound opportunities, then your positioning has to be stronger than everyone else in your space.

In this talk, Richard C. Wilson breaks down one of the most valuable business skills he has developed over the last 20 years: powerful market positioning.

This session explains why being “just another firm in the industry” is a losing strategy, and why the winners are the ones who define a clear sandbox, own a valuable keyword phrase, and become the go-to authority for a specific niche.

Richard shares how he went from learning about family offices for the first time to building Family Office Club through focused positioning, consistent content, and refusing to wait for permission to become a thought leader.

Inside this video:
- Why positioning is the foundation for attracting pre-qualified leads
- How to stand out in crowded markets like AI, real estate, hedge funds, and private equity
- Why specialization beats being broad and generic
- How to define your sandbox and own a keyword phrase
- The real reason niche authority creates better deal flow and stronger valuations
- How Family Office Club was built through strategic positioning
- Why being number one in a narrow category can transform your business

This is a must-watch for founders, capital raisers, investors, consultants, and anyone who wants to build authority in a competitive market.

If your business is not getting enough momentum, this may be the missing piece.

I’m Richard C. Wilson, founder of the Family Office Club. We’ve hosted 300+ live investor events over the past 18+ years and worked on over $1B in transactions.

I’m seeing a major shift right now…

AI is changing everything—but not in the way most people think.

In the family office space, trust, relationships, and in-person meetings are becoming MORE valuable, not less.

With capital harder to raise and investors more selective than ever, your strategy needs to evolve:

• Stronger relationships
• Better positioning
• Top 1% deal quality only

The groups that adapt to this shift are the ones that will keep closing deals.

Only about 4% of founders and capital raisers actually execute on what investors are clearly asking for.

That’s not a guess—that’s based on years of working with thousands of investors and hosting 300+ live events with family offices, billionaires, and ultra-wealthy entrepreneurs.

In this video, I break down a simple but critical point:

👉 If you’re going to raise capital… go all in.
👉 If you’re building a business… build it properly.
👉 If you’re getting feedback… actually implement it.

Most people say they want to raise capital, but:

Their pitch materials are weak
Their deal isn’t differentiated
They ignore repeated feedback from investors

And then they wonder why nothing is happening.

The truth is:
Investors are some of the most successful entrepreneurs in the world. If you start treating their feedback like operating advice—not just capital advice—you’ll move faster and build a stronger business.

Family Office Club events aren’t just “investor events” — they are rooms full of:

Deca-millionaires
Centimillionaires
High-performing founders

If you want to level up, get in proximity and go deep.

We host 30+ events per year—hope to meet you in person soon.

What does real due diligence actually look like in private investing?

In this fireside chat, Richard C. Wilson sits down with Marc Halpern, co-founder of the Deep Due Diligence Investors Club, to break down the tools, strategies, and real-world case studies behind smarter investing.

Marc shares how experienced private investors evaluate opportunities by looking at the jockey, the horse, and the track — meaning the sponsor, the deal itself, and the macro environment. He explains why most investors don’t go deep enough, how AI can help screen deal flow faster, and why due diligence can reduce risk — but never eliminate it.

This conversation also covers:

How to evaluate sponsors vs. deals

Why deep due diligence works best in teams

How to use AI tools for investment screening

The difference between minimizing risk and managing risk

Why diversification matters across sponsors and asset classes

How investors stress test operators during changing market conditions

Common mistakes sponsors make when raising capital

If you invest in private placements, real estate, private equity, or alternative assets, this session will give you a more disciplined framework for evaluating deals and avoiding costly mistakes.

Marc and the Deep Due Diligence Investors Club have helped put roughly $10 million of equity checks to work across deals, and this session gives you a look into how serious investors think before wiring capital.

Watch this if you want a sharper lens on:
due diligence, deal screening, sponsor evaluation, private investing, and portfolio strategy.

Raising capital has never been harder.

And most fund managers are playing the wrong game.

In this episode, I sit down with Chip and Sam Perkins of Perkins Fund Marketing — a firm that has raised over $8 billion in alternative assets over nearly three decades — to unpack what actually works in today’s capital raising environment.

They’ve spent 30+ years, tens of thousands of hours, and navigated multiple bull and bear markets to refine what separates successful managers from those who never break through.

Inside this episode, we cover:

Why raising capital today is harder than 2008

The biggest mistakes managers make when working with placement agents

The communication failure that cost one manager $360M in AUM

Why “AI blasting” investors is killing trust (and what to do instead)

How to structure fees in today’s 1.25 & 20 environment

What institutional investors actually look for before writing a check

The 3-30-30 rule for getting meetings with serious investors

Where capital is flowing right now (and why niche beats generic)

The shift from 2 & 20 to founder’s pricing and alignment-first models

How trust, credibility, and consistency outperform flashy returns

We also dive into:

Private credit trends

Structured credit strategies targeting equity-like returns

Opportunity Zone real estate development

India-focused growth equity

Enhanced cash management strategies (T+3 structures)

If you manage a fund, syndicate deals, or raise capital from family offices, this episode will sharpen your positioning immediately.

Because capital raising is not about blasting emails.

It’s about trust, alignment, credibility — and surviving uncertainty.

How do you actually get meetings with the most valuable investor types — and then move from “interesting conversation” to real deals getting completed?

In this Centimillionaire Investor Interview, Richard sits down with Sahil Nandwani of Calafia Group to break down the real-world mechanics of investor outreach, follow-up, and relationship-building inside the insular family office ecosystem.

Sahil shares what works (and what quietly kills deals), including how to communicate like a professional, how to anticipate investor questions before they’re asked, and why most people lose momentum simply because they don’t follow up correctly.

You’ll learn:

How single family offices filter opportunities fast (and what they look for first)

Why most capital raisers fail on follow-up, listening, and responsiveness

How to use texting, call summaries, and short Loom-style videos to close gaps faster

When in-person meetings matter most (and why “chemistry” still wins)

How to stand out through specialization and authenticity in a crowded market

What family offices are watching with AI, and why “customization” becomes a moat

How to build trust without being needy, pushy, or “fund closes Friday” desperate

If you’re raising capital, sourcing deals, building a family office network, or trying to get in front of more serious investors — this episode is a playbook for getting meetings, building trust, and completing transactions.

https://familyoffices.com/

What separates a $10M investor from a $100M+ centimillionaire?

And why do so many high-income entrepreneurs lose momentum after liquidity — while others quietly compound into multi-generational wealth?

In this powerful fireside chat, I sit down with Paul Karger, Partner at Twin Focus Capital, a $12B multi-family office serving clients with an average net worth of $150M–$200M+.

In the last year alone, Paul and his team brought in over $2B in new AUM — without chasing trends, running crowded trades, or playing the commoditized wealth management game.

Instead, they focus on something different.

In this episode, we break down:

🚨 The Top 7 Mistakes Investors Make

• Overpaying for commoditized wealth management
• Getting stuck in crowded trades and “long lines”
• Confusing money with wealth
• Hiring advisors who can’t solve real-life complexity
• Failing to diversify risk beyond one asset class
• Choosing strategy over people
• Waiting too long to professionalize their family office structure

💡 The 5 Things Only the Ultra-Wealthy Do

• Make decisions quickly — and don’t look back
• Protect their time and operate at highest and best use
• Build deep, durable relationships
• Play defense first: “Stay rich” > “Get rich”
• Focus on risk management as a daily discipline

Paul also shares:

Why wealth management is becoming commoditized — and how real family offices create value

How to “pay for yourself immediately” by renegotiating legacy fee structures

The mindset shift from $50M to $500M

Why authenticity builds faster trust than corporate polish

How to build relationships with billion-dollar multi-family offices

Why the next bubble may already be forming in AI

Why diversification of risk matters more than diversification of assets

If you are a founder, investor, or family office executive operating at scale — this conversation is about playing the long game.

Because once you’ve built wealth…

The only real objective left is keeping it.

No hype. No trend chasing. Just real-world insights from someone managing $12B for centimillionaires and billionaires.

What does it actually take to build and scale a business to this level?

This is not theory — it’s a candid breakdown of what actually drives growth, and what quietly holds most companies back.

👥 Why hiring A-players is the ultimate growth lever
⚠️ The costly mistake of lowering hiring standards
🔁 Why diversification often destroys momentum
📈 How to scale beyond early success
💰 The importance of cash discipline and focus

What does it really take to go from $0 to billions in product sales?

In this high-energy strategy session, I sit down with Kevin Harrington — original shark on Shark Tank, inventor of the infomercial, and founder behind 20+ companies that each surpassed $100M in revenue.

This isn’t theory. This is a tactical breakdown of how a real operator builds billion-dollar momentum.

Kevin shares:

• Why customer acquisition strategy matters more than your product
• How Celsius went from a 22¢ stock to a $12B brand using influencer distribution
• The “Tease, Please, Close” framework for irresistible pitch videos
• Why lifetime customer value beats one-time sales every time
• How to negotiate royalty deals that create long-term deal flow
• The psychology behind closing high-stakes transactions
• How to turn negotiations around so the other side sells you
• Why fair deal structures lead to billion-dollar partnerships
• The health, energy, and personal standards required to operate at high velocity

We also go deep on:

Distribution as the ultimate moat

Structuring deals that attract repeat partners

Creating exponential vs. geometric growth

When and how to restructure agreements

Positioning yourself to see deals first — and at better valuations

Kevin also shares behind-the-scenes lessons from building As Seen on TV, launching global infomercials across multiple continents, and scaling through downtime arbitrage in media.

If you are a founder, investor, family office executive, or capital raiser, this episode is a masterclass in:

Branding + Distribution + Deal Structure + Energy Management

No fluff. No theory. Just tactical insights from someone who has generated over $5B in product sales.

Final episode of Inside the Family Office: Live Investor Panel

Real family office practitioners and allocators share how they structure deals, protect families, and think about wealth:  Investor Brian closes the panel with stories and principles from decades of real estate and business building – starting with an 8x return on a 4-H piglet as a kid. He breaks down how he bought distressed Phoenix property at a fraction of replacement cost, why you must “run into the burning building” when everyone else is fleeing, and how to avoid piling into yesterday’s winners at today’s low cap rates. Brian outlines his goal of seven super-pillars of passive income across real estate, private equity, syndicated deals, and options, and shares his non-negotiables for alignment: deep-pocketed partners, operators who only win after investors win, and real skin in the game. The panel ends with a strong reminder to respect other people’s capital and only raise money if you’re prepared to protect it.

In this session, Richard C. Wilson breaks down the six must-have assets almost every capital raiser is missing, and how to show up like an institutional-quality professional instead of “just another deal.”

Here are the 6 must-haves he covers:

Unique position – a clearly defined, memorable niche so investors know exactly where you fit and why you’re different.

One-line capital-raising pitch – a single sentence with 3 data points explaining what you do, why people trust you, and the value you add.

Founder video – a short, authentic video that builds trust, shows who you are, and briefly walks through what your company actually does.

Visual one-pager – a simple, scan-friendly one page that an investor can understand between the gate and their airplane seat.

Concise pitch deck – ideally 10–15 pages (or under 25 pages) that investors will really read, with the detail pushed to a data room instead of a 44-page info dump.

Due diligence data room – organized documents plus a master DDQ and background check ready to go so serious investors can dig in quickly.

Richard also shares why:

– Relationships drive investment decisions more than IRR projections
– Consistent, niche content (talks, videos, articles, etc.) makes you locally, then nationally known
– Tools like CRMs, AI call transcription, outbound dialers, and even old-school direct mail can dramatically improve your investor follow-up
– Protecting your time, saying no, and moving fast are common patterns among the most successful family offices and founders

If you’re raising capital or advising portfolio companies, this talk gives you a practical checklist for becoming investor-ready and upgrading the quality of the conversations you’re having.

• Avoided trading time for money by shifting into mindset and performance coaching for dentists, doctors, and business owners
  
  
• Approaches due diligence as an investor by leaning on trusted communities and experts instead of going it alone
  
  
• Stays ultra-healthy and ultra-happy with MURF workouts, daily habits, tracking health metrics, and constantly upgrading his “self-image”

• How a crystal-clear niche and brand name can make your firm “preeminent” in your space
• The Jim Collins hedgehog concept applied to capital raisers (passion, profit, and DNA)
• How to choose a 7% niche that captures 70% of the profits
• Why generic names like “XYZ Capital” quietly kill replies, deal flow, and investor trust
• How to send investor emails that deliver real value first (checklists, DDQ templates, tools) instead of “Can I pitch you my deal?”

Richard also shares real before/after examples of rebrands that moved firms from confusing and forgettable to institutional-grade and obvious at a glance, plus how his own YouTube positioning has led to cold inbound from founders doing tens of millions in revenue.

In this Family Office Club Summit session, Richard C. Wilson breaks down how billionaires think about distribution, deal flow, and “strategic choke points” and how you can apply the same mental models to your own business, investor club, or family office.

Richard shares real examples from 18+ years of running investor clubs, including:
– How one member met a CPA at an event who went on to refer 43 investors
– How Michael Scott used ideas from these events to raise $8M and later have a $100M exit
– Why distribution and choke points are worth millions when you design them intentionally

What you’ll learn in this talk:

- Why attending live investor events and summits can lead to exponential outcomes from just one connection.

- What a “strategic choke point” is (from Vern Harnish’s Mastering the Rockefeller Habits) and how to build your own.

- How top private equity firms quietly generate proprietary deal flow with a simple, low-cost outbound process.

- How to think about distribution in terms of capital, information, deal access, and relationships.

- Ways to create “unfair advantage” with positioning, naming, and niche focus.

- The difference between having a strong, clear position and keeping your deal structures flexible.

- How creative structures like gross revenue royalties, anchor investors, and multiple share classes can unlock deals.

- Why most wealthy investors care more about trust, alignment, and structure than just headline returns.

- How to “train your gut” and think more strategically like a centimillionaire or billionaire.

Resources mentioned in the talk:

– ChokePoint Coach (AI tool on strategic choke points inside the Family Office Club portal)
– Deal Structure Ninja (AI tool to brainstorm and improve deal structures)
– Billionaires.com — interviews where billionaires share the one choke point or turning point that changed everything
