I know of no more encouraging fact than the unquestionable ability of man to elevate his life by conscious endeavour. Henry David Thoreau

Good morning ☀️

I’m a 42 y/o dad of two, happily married — pretty ordinary guy.

For years I’ve been quietly soaking up incredible ideas here on X.

Now I’m done just lurking — I’m starting to post and engage.

My main mission: equip my kids with a resilient, exponential, future-proof mindset.

I’m convinced the standard Canadian/US school system won’t get them there.

So I’m documenting the journey — mess-ups and all.

Here’s what’s on my mind most right now:

1. The tech & economic singularity — explained from a total layman’s view
→ How normal families can actually thrive as everything speeds up

2. What really matters for kids in an unpredictable future
→ Hands-on skills, philosophy, connections, community, purpose, real inner peace

3. Short/medium-term wins
→ Building a side business, creating content, creating financial breathing room

4. Doing all this while staying honestly optimistic about the future

Things are moving insanely fast.
I’m betting we can adapt even faster.

If this resonates — or you think I’m missing something important — please reply or DM.

Would love to hear what other parents and futurists are focusing on right now.

Month one of running our household with an AI assistant: planned a Seattle trip (flights, hotel, game tickets), tracked loans and net worth, caught a sketchy sales email, and built a password-protected trip dashboard for my wife.

It just got its own inbox too. @bot

@elonmusk The price of mobile will trend toward zero along with everything Elon touches.

My good friend is publishing his book today. The introduction begins with a line: “A single idea can change your life.”
In a world where people spend too much time judging others, arguing about what is wrong, and reacting to the noise around them, I love the philosophical simplicity of that thought.
Progress starts with an idea, not certainty, not consensus, and rarely approval from everyone else.
The best books don't just give you answers. They give you an idea you carry with you long after you finish reading.
Congratulations, my friend. I hope this book puts a few of those ideas into the world.

@lejeunesimon @Wealthsimple Any talk of direct mortgage offerings? Not broker partners. Custody BTC offerings? Being able to loan against the two assets?
Big fan of your products and platform. Thanks
