✈️ Passengers on a Frontier Airlines flight from San Juan to Chicago reportedly restrained a man who tried to open an emergency exit door and jump from the plane mid-flight, forcing the aircraft to divert to Miami, where it landed safely.

Elon Musk fired his longest serving assistant after 12 years and it reveals something brutal about how he thinks.

Mary Beth Brown had been with him since the early SpaceX days. She handled everything. Scheduling. Emails. Logistics. She once said she worked 80 hours a week for over a decade. By all accounts she was irreplaceable.

After 12 years she asked for a raise. A significant one. She felt she'd earned it.

Elon told her to take two weeks off. He said he wanted to see if he could manage without her. When the two weeks ended, he told her he didn't need her anymore.

The internet destroyed him for this. Called him heartless. Ungrateful. Every article framed it as Elon being cruel.

But there's a detail nobody mentions.

He offered her a significant equity package in SpaceX instead of the salary increase. She declined. She wanted the cash.

That SpaceX equity would be worth over $200 million today.

This isn't a story about cruelty. It's a story about two completely different ways of thinking about value. One person optimized for security. The other optimized for asymmetry.

The hardest lesson in business isn't learning how to work hard. It's learning which form of compensation to accept.

Most people choose the paycheck. The ones who build wealth choose the equity.

Most VCs wouldn’t touch Anthropic in 2023.

Yasmin Razavi did.

The Spark Capital partner led a $450M round when Anthropic had no public product, no revenue and a massive capital need. Now the AI giant’s rise has landed her on the Forbes Midas List for the first time. https://t.co/YOBSElXRRG (Photo: Guerin Blask For Forbes) #ForbesMidas
