🌳Join us in combating waste along the banks of the Lake Zug! On the Day of Good Deeds, we will walk along the beautiful lage of Zug, collect discarded litter and dispose of it properly. Registration required at this link: https://events.wwf.ch/de/tag-der-guten-tat-clean-up-in-zug-4a6vVj1biH/overview Most people do not realise that the Zugersee is sadly not exempt from waste. This waste has a considerable impact on nature and the environment. Due to wind, high water, and other variables, these pollutants end up in waterways and can be transported all the way to the ocean. Plastic and other waste are not only an aesthetic problem, but a concrete danger for plants, animals, and people. 📍Meeting Point Train stop Chollermulli, Zug. Meeting point by the public bike parking area on the side of Chamerstrasse. 🤩For who Adults, Families ✅Requirements Good physical condition 🍏Catering Please bring your own beverages. Snacks will be provided by Coop 🥾Equipment Hiking or trekking shoes, robust clothing, depending on the weather sunscreen, sun hat, sunglasses or rain gear, your own (filled) drinking bottle, work/gardening gloves (if available).

EXPERIENCE PHILOSOPHICAL SYNCRETISM, INNER ALCHEMY, AND GAME SPIRIT. Try a live (private) session of **Mäng (offline in Zürich or online worldwide)**, a powerful self-exploration game that helps uncover hidden mental scripts and rewire the way you think, feel and act. It is a tool for a really **profound change** that follows the four stages of inner alchemy. A modernized version of an ancient contemplative practice, reimagined as a transformational tool based on psychological insight, symbolic logic, and inner strategy, it is not therapy or coaching in the traditional sense. Instead, it’s an immersive deep-dive into the unconscious mind through metaphor and archetype with a game spirit. 💡 **How it works:** Mäng is built on four stages of real, lasting change: 1. **Discovery** – Identify limiting beliefs and internal programs 2. **Uninstallation** – Let go of outdated patterns 3. **Design** – Create new mental strategies 4. **Integration** – Embed them into your deeper awareness You’ll be guided through this process by the **Master of Mäng**, who offers structure, questions, and insight, while you remain the one making all decisions and discoveries. 🌿 **Who is this for?** For everyone (regardless of beliefs, age, gender, etc.), but more than anyone - for those who didn't find answers or sufficient depth in pop coaching and psychology. 🕒 **Important:** This is a deep game. A full session lasts **4 hours**. Time slots are defined individually. Contact me directly to get an appointment. Price for newbies: 250 CHF

Sometimes it’s a massive advantage… and sometimes it can complicate your business if you don’t know what you’re walking into. In this training, we’ll cut through the “agents vs investors” drama and focus on one thing: **what makes you more money and gives you more leverage**. You’ll learn: * **When being licensed helps investors win** (better access, better data, better terms, better deal flow) * How investors use a license to **create extra profit centers** (commissions, referrals, listings, buyer rep, property management pathways) * The truth about **MLS access, pocket listings, and being first to the good deals** * How licensing impacts **wholesaling, double-closing, assignments, and disclosures** * What brokerages don’t tell you: **fees, splits, compliance, and time requirements** * When it’s smarter to **partner with an agent** instead of becoming one * A simple decision framework: **licensed vs partnered vs hybrid model** You’ll walk out knowing whether licensing fits your goals—and if it does, the cleanest path to do it without slowing down your investing.

Tuesday, June 2nd, 5:00–8:30 PM Eastern Central Ohio Chapter Meeting IN PERSON IN COLUMBUS How I Get Private Lenders and Partners to Fund My Deals If you can’t fund it, you don’t have a deal. And right now, funding is where more investors are getting stuck. Private lenders are more cautious. Partners are asking better questions. And deals that look good on paper still fall apart when the money doesn’t show up. That’s why we’re bringing in a panel of investors who are actually getting their deals funded right now. You’ll hear how they’re finding money, structuring deals, and building relationships that lead to repeat funding. Here’s what you’ll learn: * Where they’re finding private lenders today * How they start conversations that lead to funding * What makes lenders and partners say YES * How they structure deals to be fundable * The biggest mistakes investors make when raising money * How to build repeat funding relationships **Early Session (6:00–7:00 PM Eastern):** **Having Trouble Finding Tenants? How Community Shelter Board Can Help** Nicholas Brenner will walk you through programs designed to help rapidly rehouse tenants, including financial support that can stabilize your rentals. **The Deal Room (7:00–7:30 PM Eastern)** Bring deals, funding needs, buyers, and problems. This is where connections turn into action. This meeting is for serious real estate investors nationwide, and we’re known for our high-content, real-life education and our nationwide community of dealmakers.

Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving." The film continues John Carney’s “long run of success with yet another charmer” and “a sharp, hopeful crowd-pleaser that strikes the right notes!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8!
