Wealth over the years summarized

[Dalton Caldwell @daltonc]

It seems that optimism, rather than money, is the fuel that startups at the earliest stages run on.

I have seen examples of startups successfully recovering from almost every kind of problem (i.e. no $$$/bad idea/team issues) *other* than founders losing hope/becoming cynical.

Early in my career, I consulted for Coke to ensure sugar taxes failed and soda was included in food stamp funding.

I say Coke's policies are evil because I saw inside the room.

The first step in playbook was paying the NAACP + other civil rights groups to call opponents racist

Opinions are easy to produce; everyone has plenty of them and most people are eager to share them--even to fight for them. Unfortunately many are worthless or even harmful, including a lot of your own. #principleoftheday

I hope this catches on. Tourists holding back spending dollars is one of the most effective ways to rattle the economic engines of these countries with Human Rights issues

Good economic-health litmus test of a city: how many cranes do I see in the sky

Many - growing economy
Some - mildly growing
None - no growth or contracting

@GarettSloane Interesting.

Did they provide any numbers on estimated reach, and what their demo breakdown is?

Their brand clients, outside of the cannabis industry, will need to be quite progressive

The Productivity Paradox

Work longer, get less done.

Parkinson's Law says that work expands to fill the time available for its completion.

When you establish fixed hours to your work, you find unproductive ways to fill it.

Work like a lion instead—sprint, rest, repeat.
