Kinda insane how there are headlines weekly of OpenAI being valued at $800 billion, Anthropic at $380 billion, SpaceX at $1.25 trillion and 99.999% of investors are unable to participate in the upside of the most iconic, generational businesses of our time

50 year mortgages. More stimulus checks. We are never going to fix our problems in a structural, root-cause way. We are incapable of taking our medicine. Act and invest accordingly

You are the author of your own life, and it’s never too late to replace the stories you tell yourself and the world. It’s never too late to begin a new chapter, add a surprise twist, or change genres entirely.

Underrated life advice: You can reinvent yourself as many times as you need. New habits. New standards. New people. New career. You’re never stuck. You’re allowed to change. Today, tomorrow, and as many times as it takes to create the life you want.

Unclear why 22 y/os should be paying social security $ to 75 y/o homebuyers.

"I wish there was a way to know you're in the good ol' days before you've actually left them."
Solution:
Always assume you're in the good ol' days.
No matter what phase of life you're in, you're going to one day look back on it with a smile and wish you could experience it again.
Cherish every phase.
