We are the world.
Last weekend, I watched the Netflix doc on the creation of We Are the World.
For the younger crowd: In 1985, Quincy Jones, Lionel Richie, and Michael Jackson convinced 46 of the biggest music stars in the world to pull an all-nighter and record a song to benefit humanitarian efforts in Africa. It remains the 9th best-selling single of all time.
 | “We were all aware of each other, but in a lot of cases, we were meeting for the first time. It was [like] a big corporate meeting where you sit around and try to get used to each other, but everybody had power.” - Lionel Richie The entire doc is a masterclass on organization, ego management, and real time problem solving. And you see what it means to have effortless musical talent. |

Not sure who John Gray is, but I think he is referring to Jon Gray, the president and COO of Blackstone. Where does everyone stand on fast email responses? I respect the speed, especially for brokers. I’m a bit more “European” in my response time.
On average, tenants in industrial buildings in the U.S. with leases expiring this year will face market rents that are 41% higher than their current rent.
In Orange County that number is 71% and in Inland Empire it is 132%. 👀
Tenants need advisors now more than ever.

These rent increases are margin-crushing for many SMBs. Luckily in IOS, the rents typically represent 3-6% of a logistic tenant’s cost structure.

"Dad, why is my sister's name Rose?"
"Because your mother loves roses."
"Thanks, Dad."
"You're welcome, Nvidia."— Douglas A. Boneparth (@dougboneparth)
