A lot of travelers spend their time chasing: • the next card • the next bonus • the next redemption • the next “hack” But the travelers who consistently get the best results? They think differently. They make better decisions. They understand leverage. They know what actually matters… and what doesn’t. And often, the biggest breakthroughs don’t come from learning something new. They come from finally understanding the game itself. That’s what makes sessions with JGOOT Founder Joel McDonald different. Because this isn’t just about points. It’s not just about cards. It’s not just about travel. It’s about the mindset, strategy, and decision-making process behind building a life where extraordinary travel becomes normal. In this special live strategy session, Joel will be diving into the ideas, perspectives, and playbook principles that continue to shape the way smart travelers approach points, travel, and opportunity. It’s time for: **The Founder’s Playbook: A Live Strategy Session with Joel McDonald** Inside this session, Joel will cover: • The strategic shifts changing the way smart travelers approach points and travel • Common mistakes that quietly cost people opportunities, flexibility, and value • How experienced travelers think differently from beginners • The difference between collecting points… and building a real travel strategy • Why simplicity often outperforms complexity in the long run • The mindset and habits that lead to more consistent travel success This isn’t about chasing hype. It isn’t about finding one magic trick. It’s about learning how to think strategically in a world full of noise, distractions, and endless “travel hacks.” And when you understand the playbook behind the playbook… you stop reacting to opportunities randomly… and start creating them intentionally.

**NEW UPDATE:** Additional members of the cubing community have reached out to me and we all agree, the more cubing the better! I have removed the 12 person limit and we are adding an overflow cube for those also interested in non vintage type cubes! These guest cubes may consist of the following: \- Alex's Enchantment Cube: [Enchanted to Meet You](https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/enchantedCube)! \- Matthew's Avatar cube: [Avatar: The Last Airbender Power(ful) Cube](https://cubecobra.com/cube/list/avatarTLA) Priority will still fall to firing the vintage cube but what this means is if we reach 12 members we can offer the option to fire both cubes at 6 and 6 or just the vintage cube at 2 pods each. If we reach over 12 we will divide up the players between the two cubes with earlier RSVPs getting priority on their choice. If you have a cube that you are interested in having as a spill over cube please reach out to me and we can coordinate. Thank you! Come join and casually draft a vintage cube that is open to everyone. No cost to enter! The store provides promo booster packs and I usually throw in a pack of the most recent standard set to award to the people with the best records at the end of the night. [What is Cube?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNDBTRG6keM) What: Vintage Cube Draft When: 6:00pm Where: Your Hobby Place in Old Town Alexandria (Your Hobby Place, 700 N Washington St, Alexandria, VA 22314) We aim to start drafting shortly after 6:00pm as the store's register closes at 9:00pm. The store owner is kind enough to keep the space open for us to finish rounds. In previous events we've usually wrapped up around 9:45. All skill levels are welcome and all cards, lands, tokens needed are provided so you only need to bring yourself and potentially some dice and playmat if you prefer.

Montgomery County MD Real Estate Investors, Agents and Professionals! We just launched a Cash-Flow Breakfast Club for your area! This is the most unique real estate investor club, education, networking and mastermind event in the US! **Join us for our official launch event for Montgomery County MD on May 28.** **This is a 12 part education series with new topics every month. This event is session 1 of 12!** **This event is free but has very limited seating and we are limited to the first 50 to RSVP! Join us and become a founding member of this amazing community!** **Very limited seating. In-person only.** **Make sure to RSVP today to reserve your spot.** **When: May 28, 2026 @ 5:45pm - 8:00pm EST** **Where: Twinbrook Library** **202 Meadow Hall Dr, Rockville, MD 20851** The Cash-Flow Breakfast Club is NOT just a meet up. It’s the most unique Real Estate Investor Community of Mentors, Coaches & Masterminds. A community of growth oriented, abundance mindset, go-giver individuals with a BARE MINIMUM commitment to become financially free through real estate investing. We focus on providing education and building networks to help every member solve their cash-flow freedom equation, so they can have the time-freedom needed to follow their passions, make a lasting impact and even change the world! The unique format of this event, which consists of high-level education, gamified networking, mastermind breakout sessions, case studies, group deal analysis, market deep dives, and peer-to-peer coaching facilitation makes this the most impactful local real estate investor group a real estate investor can be a part of. The foundation of the group is built around the belief that everyone in the room has the potential to change the world… however most of us never have the time, energy or financial situation to even dare to dream big enough. Most of us have passions that will never be followed, amazing businesses or ideas that will never be pursued… unless we can solve the Cash-Flow Freedom Equation, which ultimately leads to Time-Freedom. Once that happens it is usually much easier for us to think bigger, dream bigger, be bigger. · 🤯 Learn more about the Cash-Flow Breakfast Club [HERE](https://cashflowbreakfastclub.com/) · 🥇 Get in the VIP List to be notified about the next event in your area [HERE](https://the.cashflowbreakfastclub.com/VIP) · 🤙🏼 Learn more about Launching your own Cash-Flow Breakfast Club Location [HERE](https://cashflowbreakfastclub.com/launch-your-own-club/) · 🤝🏼 Learn more about becoming an Affiliate-Sponsor at one of our club locations [HERE](https://cashflowbreakfastclub.com/affiliate-sponsors/) · 📷 View photos and videos of some of our recent events [HERE](https://cashflowbreakfastclub.com/about-the-cash-flow-breakfast-club/) · 😎 Looking to represent?

**The 3% Advantage** **Why Only a Few Leaders Truly Stand Out — and How to Become One of Them** **FREE 1\-hour interactive webinar \| Leadership\, Positioning & Growth** \*\*\* **Join Dr Edward Klinger and learn why:** Most capable professionals and business leaders never truly stand out. Not because they lack talent, experience, or ambition — but because they operate without a clear system for differentiation. In crowded markets, competence is no longer enough. The real challenge is clarity. This session is for people who are tired of blending in — and want to understand what the top 3% do differently. Join Dr Edward Klinger for a practical, insight-driven webinar that explores why only a small minority of leaders consistently stand out, attract opportunity, and command attention — and what it actually takes to join them. \*\*\* **What you’ll learn** * Why most professionals and businesses become indistinguishable * The hidden cost of “professional sameness” * The 3 concrete actions you can take immediately to begin standing out * How clarity, consistency, and leadership decisions create long-term advantage * Why tactics alone don’t work without an underlying system This is not a motivational talk. And it’s not a marketing hack session. It’s about positioning, leadership clarity, and intentional growth. \*\*\* **Who this is for** * Business owners and founders * Executives and senior leaders * Consultants, coaches, and professional service providers * Anyone who feels capable but under-recognised * Leaders who want to stop reacting and start designing their direction If you know you’re good at what you do — but struggle to articulate it clearly, consistently, or confidently — this session will be highly relevant. \*\*\* You’ll leave with: * Clear insight into why standing out is so rare * Practical actions you can apply immediately * A deeper understanding of the system behind sustained differentiation \*\*\* Free to attend. Limited spaces. Stop blending in. Start operating with intent — like the 3% *Please note : The zoom link allows you to register and then the workshop zoom link is emailed to you. You can register in advance of the event.* The Adapt and Thrive Events Group wholeheartedly supports the policies and principles of Meetup. We make no guarantees and we do not offer financial services or assurances. All our Meetup Events are FREE to attend.

Greetings, Let's meet again for another end of the month Melanated Investors Book Club meeting.

Prior to that, Jason and Cassandra Lockhart facilitated monthly virtual discussions pre and post pandemic (2021/2022 to 2024) before planning their wedding in 2025. For those interested in **in-person book discussions** **(informal)** to include various topics related to leadership, advocacy, entrepreneurship, economic empowerment, financial literacy, and community service--**feel free to RSVP.** All are welcome to attend (no need bring a book or have read any featured text). As usual, feel free to discuss other topics to include books/content you are currently reading that extend beyond entrepreneurship. If you, or anyone you know, would like to partner, collaborate, or lead a discussion feel free to reach out via meet-up message or phone at anytime. Also, if there are any questions regarding this meet-up do not hesitate to reach out at any time.
