    Both @pmarca and @elonmusk have said we should go build/get back to work and have been met with harsh criticism. I’m with them. Time to free us for the sake of progress.

    Dear #Bitcoin and #Crypto, Thank you. You made me ask the question “What is money?” And ever since asking that question I have asked millions more. The more I learn, the more questions I have. I’ve become more curious about everything in the world. So thank you.

    I was on a two flights today. - No mask. - Talked to the person next to me. - Had my meetings in person. Like a psychopath.

    This is the scariest video I have seen in my life. I'm dead serious. This is essentially the "We are effed and know it" video.

    Why do people hate Zuckerberg? I can’t really figure it out. The guy should be admired. He built an incredible business.

    While listening to podcasts, I would love to press a button the marks moments and then just sends me a clip of the abbreviated moments after I’m done.

    A 23 year old @lyft driver asked me for career advice. I realized that I was 9 years older than him at that moment. My Advice: 1. Build a network in what you are interested 2. Be abnormally helpful to everyone 3. Love the process and people 4. Build toward a mission

    Everyone wants to start a startup. Nobody wants to build for 5 years before anyone notices. Everyone wants to be a VC. Nobody wants to wait 10 years for returns.
    Everybody wants to start a blog. Nobody wants to write for 3 years before anybody starts reading. Everybody wants to start a podcast. Nobody is willing to record episodes for 2 years straight. Everybody wants to write a book. Nobody is willing to build an audience first.

    It turns out the cheat code to life is just work ethic. Good luck if you are trying for a short term angle, because you will be lapped by long term persistence.
