My eldest asked if Santa was real, so I taught her about Occam’s razor. β€œWhich is likelier: that Santa is real, or that millions of adults are in a global conspiracy to fool children into thinking he is? I remind you that you and your sister can’t keep secrets.”

You can outperform most venture funds by buying LEGO. I analyzed the last 20 years of secondhand LEGO pricing data, and found randomly purchasing sets will match most VC's returns if you're somewhat intentional about what you buy-- you massively outperform even the best firms
