Good morning, afternoon, and good evening, everybody! Scott Carson here, and boy, do I have a story that just cracks me up every New Year! This morning, while huffing and puffing on my bike, I got a text about a "half-billion dollar fund" in the UK looking to acquire mortgage-backed securities immediately. Yep, you heard that right – from someone who's never bought a note and whose social media is more about conspiracy theories than cash flow.

Good morning, afternoon, and good evening, everybody! Scott Carson here, and boy, do I have a story that just cracks me up every New Year! This morning, while huffing and puffing on my bike, I got a text about a "half-billion dollar fund" in the UK looking to acquire mortgage-backed securities immediately. Yep, you heard that right – from someone who's never bought a note and whose social media is more about conspiracy theories than cash flow. Sounds legit, right?

Folks, it's time for a public service announcement to the note industry: QUIT CHASING WHALES! If you’re being approached by "joker brokers" promising you a slice of a multi-million (or billion) dollar pie, but their money's "out of the country" and they don't know what a QIB form is, run for the hills! This episode is about ditching the Moby Dick illusion and building real wealth with your own portfolio.

Here’s why you need to stop chasing phantom deals and get real in 2026:

Exposing the "Joker Broker" Trap: Learn to spot the red flags of unrealistic deals – from phantom funds to foreign money and requests from inexperienced intermediaries (especially those more worried about RFAK than real estate).
The QIB Form Reality Check: Understand what a Qualified Institutional Buyer (QIB) truly is and why genuine institutional players won't be calling "little old Scott Carson" or you for a half-billion dollar deal.
Why Whales Already Have Fishermen: Big funds and family offices already have established networks. Your energy is better spent building your own relationships and portfolio, not trying to pitch someone who “fell in love with the property” but not the note.
Build Your Own Damn Ship (and Find Your Own Fish!): Instead of waiting for a grand slam, focus on acquiring notes for your portfolio. Even $50,000 notes can bring in significant cash flow, which is far more impactful than chasing ghosts.
The Power of Private Money (in Smaller Batches): Discover how networking at local real estate clubs and marketing to IRA investors can unlock the "smaller batches" of private capital you actually need to fund your deals and grow your business.

Listen, if you're a "lowly old person" who's never bought a note but thinks you're going to broker a half-billion dollar deal, I've got oceanfront property in Arizona to sell you. Stop letting these pipe dreams tatter and bruise your investing spirit. Focus on tangible action, build your own portfolio, and generate your own profitable cash flow. Go buy one, two, three notes a month for yourself, and you'll be happier, wealthier, and far less likely to vomit. Sayonara, Moby!
