4 years ago I told myself I'd write one newsletter every week for entrepreneurs as an outcome of a spaces discussion...

Weddings. Funerals. Flights. Sick days. Holidays. 210 weeks later , still going strong.

If you're building something bigger than yourself, this is for you 👇

The Supreme Court upheld the Sindh High Court decision that the board of TRG has committed a $150 million fraud against TRG’s 13,000 public shareholders. A business that once managed over $2 billion in assets now has only $100 million, with the rest destroyed by the present management, while they have paid themselves and their lawyers tens of millions of dollars. We look forward to removing them in the upcoming board elections now endorsed by the Supreme Court, and rebuilding the business, hopefully to even greater success than before.

Pakistan’s biggest news brands have 28.5M combined followers on X.

Average engagement rate: 0.017%

That’s not influence. That’s a Contact List.

Some outlets with 5M+ followers are barely hitting 1–3K views per post.

Pakistan is a top 5 freelancing country in the world. Its payment infrastructure belongs in 2005. This is how I think we can solve it.

🚨🇺🇸🇮🇷🇦🇪 UAE billionaire Khalaf Ahmad Al Habtoor just humiliatingly dismissed Senator Lindsey Graham in the most eloquent way possible.

Graham's calling for Gulf states to join the war. Says they're "under attack" and need to fight alongside the US.

Al Habtoor's response: "We know full well why we are under attack, and we also know who dragged the entire region into this dangerous escalation without consulting those he calls his 'allies.'"

In other words: You started this war without asking us. Now you want us to fight it for you? No!

The money shot: Graham said Iran and Venezuela together hold 31% of global oil reserves. That if the U.S. takes control, it's a "nightmare for China" and America would "make a lot of money."

Al Habtoor: "Only then does the picture become clear. And only then do we understand why they want this war."

Not about freedom. Not about security. Oil and money. Graham said it himself.

"We do not need your protection. All we want from you is to keep your hands off us.

We invest in our security and pay billions of dollars for these weapons. This is an industry that thrives on wars and arms sales, not a charitable endeavor."

The kill shot:

"Senator Graham: You may be a senator in the U.S. Senate, but anyone who hears your statements might think you're a member of the Israeli Knesset, because you defend Israel's interests more than you defend the interests of the American people themselves.

We will not enter this war to serve the interests of others, nor will we sacrifice our sons in a conflict that could have been avoided through diplomacy and political solutions.

We want peace and stability. We will not accept being forced down the path of war, nor will we accept being fuel for others' battles."

The Gulf-U.S. alliance just cracked in public. Over oil. Over being used. Over being told to sacrifice their people for American profits and Israeli security.

Meanwhile, the UAE is treating its residents and tourists like their own nationals (Arabs, Israelis, Europeans, Americans, and Asians alike), and resiliently ensuring their airports, ports and infrastructure operate flawlessly. Not lost on them is the media wars being played to bait them into joining a war they never wanted in the first place.

I will publicly disavow ANYBODY justifying this.

He likes Trump? He likes Israel? Guess what? He’s a fucking AMERICAN and he has freedom of speech.

You can love Stalin for all I care.

Hold any fucking opinion you want NOBODY gets shot for an opinion in a civilised world.

BREAKING NEWS: Conservative commentator Charlie Kirk, 31, has died after being shot at an event in Utah. An appalling assault on free speech and democracy. Charlie always welcomed debate, with anyone. This is disgusting, and heart-breaking.
RIP Charlie. 🙏
