We used to rely on biological cues to verify a stranger in need. But in a faceless digital world full of scams and deception, has our empathy become a liability - and left us in a state of permanent suspicion?

Welcome to Ruined By The Internet? - the show where we examine how technology is shaping modern life - whether we want it to or not.

In this episode we investigate how the internet transformed scams from local nuisances into a global industry, examine how AI is dramatically amplifying the sophistication and emotional manipulation of digital deception, and ask whether the era of the inherent high-trust society is gone forever - or whether there's a way back.

Hey all, I have a podcast that may be of interest to listeners of this group. I have just joined the community and wanted to introduce what I create.

I host and produce This Place Called Earth, an independent podcast and research project exploring explicitly the nervous system, its manipulation, consciousness, psychology, neuroscience, behaviour, language, critical thinking, and the patterns that shape human experience.

I'm looking to connect with other podcasters, learn from the community, contribute where I can, and share my work with people who enjoy thoughtful, short & long-form conversations.

At 21, Keshava Swami left the conventional graduate path to live as a monk. In 2022, he accepted lifelong vows as a swami. After completing a year as a Hindu monastic fellow at Harvard Divinity School, he joined us to explain what that commitment actually means.

In this episode of Spiritual Levers, we explore:

- whether Krishna consciousness is an altered state or our original consciousness;

- what a swami gives up—and what he is trying to master;

- sadhana, japa, mantra meditation, and bhakti yoga;

- why spiritual friendship may be more transformative than information;

- applying ancient principles in modern cultures;

- spirituality, money, relationships, ritual, and meaningful change.

Read The Website Article: https://ourfamilyinvests.com/raw-land-investing-300-percent-returns/

A guy turned $3,000 in car repair money into 6,500 land deals with zero losses. Here's the model he's used since 2001.

We just sat down with Mark Podolsky, better known as The Land Geek, and honestly, this episode challenged a lot of what we thought we knew about real estate.

Mark doesn't buy houses. He doesn't do STRs or flips. He buys raw, rural land, the kind most investors scroll right past, from delinquent tax owners at 25 to 35 cents on the dollar. Then he sells it back out through seller financed land contracts and lets his own software, GeekPay, handle the collections.

No tenants. No toilets. No foreclosure risk, because if a buyer stops paying, the land just reverts back to him.

The returns he described are wild: 300 to 1,200 percent, consistently, for 24 years, even with more competition in the space now than when he started.

What stuck with us most wasn't the numbers though. It was Mark's read on who actually succeeds at this. He calls them "second mountain people." Folks who already climbed the ego mountain, chased the title, the car, the status symbols, and came out the other side wanting something quieter. Time. Freedom. Margin in their life, not just their spreadsheet.

He was direct that this isn't a get rich quick play. It takes grit, real due diligence (which he does entirely remotely, without ever setting foot on the property), and a willingness to sit with a slower, less flashy model while everyone else chases the next shiny thing.

He also does a week in complete darkness in a cave. Twice. Not part of the land business, just part of who this guy is.

Full episode covers his entry points for people who want to try this themselves, done with you, or fully done for you.

Curious what this community thinks: does raw land investing get overlooked because it's genuinely inefficient to compete in, or because it just doesn't have the sex appeal of flips and short term rentals?
