Look mom, I'm on TV!

I'm excited to announce the launch of Ruffini Capital, a private equity fund focused on retail real estate investing.

I spent 20+ years running restaurants and a shopping center with my family and have spent the last 15+ years running my own businesses in music, media and entertainment. But I've always had a calling to get back into real estate, specifically investing in strip malls like the one we used to own. And now I’m finally taking the plunge (while continuing to run my other businesses)

It's not lost on me that I'm entering an extremely tough market and even on it's easiest days, is beyond hard. I'm confident in my knowledge in the space, my willingness to study my ass off, enough self awareness to admit what I don't know and I'm ok with looking stupid from time to time.

I'm heeding the advice from some trusted mentors, including my father, to be diligent in my approach, open and honest with my potential investors and pragmatic with my decision making.

I'll be sharing updates along the way, but for now, thanks for reading and if investing in retail real estate is something you're interested in, I'd love to chat.

One of the biggest mistakes I’ve seen with people who run family businesses is that everyone is involved with everything. This can’t be the way.

The best thing you can do, and arguably the hardest (speaking from experience) is to divvy up departments among family members. Let each person run the department they are most suited to run, and let them run it the way they see fit.

Have a family meeting every couple of days to check in with everyone to see how their departments are going and make sure they’re laddering up to the overall goals of the business.

If you can do this, you’ll be light years ahead of most family businesses.

This live event featured two tennis greats squaring off in a one-of-a-kind exhibition match: 22-time Grand Slam champion Rafael Nadal VS fellow countryman and No. 2-ranked Carlos Alcaraz.

Thanks to the entire crew for an amazing show!
