I think this is superb advice. Worth a careful read:

Michael Milken – Lessons on Money, Family, and Success

(Forum for Family Asset Management, Milken Conference, Mexico City –
paraphrased notes)

Spend time with your kids — you’ll pay for it (for better or worse) either now or
later.

Think about how you measure meaning and success in your children and
grandchildren. Give them purpose.

For children raised in very successful households, it’s often hard to emulate
success — especially financial success.

Most successful people are too busy to see their kids and grandkids. That
absence shows up later in life.

The center of success is the ability to dream.

Real success is the freedom to live your life.

The financial media is obsessed with lists. Forbes today is mostly about
ranking wealth by dollars.

There are countless stories of wealthy people who never had a good day with
their kids.

You’re only as happy as your least happy child — think about that often.
He shared a story about a wealthy Chicago family whose fortune was divided into 1/13th shares after one heir demanded his part. That decision ended up dividing the entire family.

Be careful not to do something that provides financially but destroys the
family.

The most important thing to teach children is financial literacy.

The greatest failure among wealthy families is not providing financial literacy to their members.
Example: an extremely wealthy Latin American family where the
great-grandfather is still alive — his mindset is completely different from that of his great-grandchildren.

In Asia, inheritance traditionally went only to men — that has changed in
recent decades.

Recommended reading: Economic Mobility Program – Invest in America.

Example: Apollo bought the Venetian Hotel and gave all 7,000 employees
stock. They paid a dividend the first year through a recap — everyone saw it as a “Christmas bonus.” The next year, when there was no dividend,
employees were upset. No one had explained the difference between a
dividend and a bonus.

The biggest mistake over the last 50 years has been financial illiteracy — not understanding the business or the source of wealth. Families and employees both need to learn this.

Best example of a united family: an Austrian family that’s 11 generations old. They own a resort used only by the five branches of the family. Ownership
rotates every three years. To be invited when your branch isn’t in charge, you
must get along with the others.

No matter how much you build or earn, what truly matters in the long run is
your relationship with your kids and grandkids.

Define what success means to you — it’s what makes you happy.
Entrepreneurs don’t just build companies; they can build nations or religions.

One of the most successful entrepreneurs in history is Lee Kuan Yew.

It’s not about how many things you own.

If you’ve never been responsible for making payroll, your view of the world is very different.

Hug your kids and grandkids. Let everyone find their own path.

Children growing up around success feel enormous pressure. Remind them
how valuable they are.

Let kids make mistakes when the stakes are low — not high.

Look at all of the crypto ETF filings out there...

@JSeyff doing God's work tracking these.

What I mean by "crypto ETF floodgates about to open soon".

[Chamath Palihapitiya @chamath]

1. Trump is more popular with young people than old people. Most young people don’t own stocks or homes (aka they are asset-light).

2. Trump is also more popular amongst working and middle class folks. Most of these folks are also asset-light.

It stands to reason that a fall in asset prices (stocks down or home prices down) have very little impact on his core constituents. To that end, I won’t be surprised if Trump has little reaction, then, to an equity or home price market correction.

Separately, the upside of shrinking these asset prices is that it gives the folks mentioned above a legitimate chance to buy into those markets at lower levels, making equity ownership and/or home ownership more possible.

Tangentially, if Trump figures out how to get rents lower, he will unite young people and asset-light working people into a reliable voting block for the foreseeable future. He will have given them the trifecta: cheaper stocks, cheaper homes, lower rent.

Said differently, don’t presume that the stock market going up is a useful barometer anymore. In fact, it going down may be a better signal for his popularity.

Time will tell.

A-Class 👌🏼 with Aethir - Edge computing for AR/VR Games

Metaverse gaming experiences that leverage augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) headsets are projected to grow rapidly. However, such gamified experiences require an extremely high data streaming bandwidth 📡
Gaming edge computing is an excellent example of how decentralized gaming technologies can support and power futuristic game forms.

🎮 Edge computing has a significant competitive advantage over traditional clouds when it comes to AR/VR game streaming. That’s because edge networks can process the necessary data through Graphic Processing Units (GPUs) closest to the end-user.

👉 For example, imagine a player in New York City, another in Tokyo, and a third in London all participating in the same AR/VR game session. With edge computing, each player's actions are processed in real-time by GPUs located closest to them, minimizing latency and ensuring a smooth gaming experience.

🤖 Artificial Intelligence (AI) is an essential component of Web 3.0 metaverse experiences that require significant real-time data processing. In AR/VR gaming, the ability to instantly respond to user decisions heavily depends on advanced AI algorithms. The processing power of edge computing is a game-changer for real-time gaming solutions that require immense GPU power.

April 2024 was exceptional for Aethir and the community. It was marked by our successful historical checker node sale and a significant presence at the @token2049 Dubai event 🏝️
↓

We took a leap into the future, unveiling the @AethirEdge, a revolutionary edge computing device powered by the advanced Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ 865 chip, designed to redefine how we interact with technology.
↓

On 20th April, we launched the Testnet versions of the checker owner portal and the checker client GUI/CLI to enable checker node license NFT holders to familiarize themselves with the node operating mechanics.
↓

Our excitement continued as we introduced our Aethir Cloud Drop, aiming to decentralize ownership of our upcoming ATH token by distributing a portion of the token supply among the Aethir community and other dedicated Web 3.0 communities.

We wrapped the month on a high note by launching our ecosystem, @AethirEco, fueled by Aethir's partners 🌐

Airdrops meta seems like loosing traction but IMO it is still a thing specially for those who are low in CAP.

Aethir is a distributed GPU cloud infrastructure provider, and it is important to understand what it means to be a DCI and why it is essential for the modern world 🌍

Blockchain networks and Web3 technologies have led to the rise of decentralized infrastructure. Unlike traditional cloud networks, decentralized networks use a distributed array of computing resources and network nodes instead of relying on centralized servers, which offers several benefits.

Here is why DCI is so important 🧵👇🏻

[Aethir @AethirCloud]

Our Aethir checker node sale has been a huge success 🔥
🔹 20000+ checker node owners for our decentralized infrastructure
🔹 Over 73,000 node licenses sold, valued at 41,000+ ETH

This achievement marks a significant step towards decentralization by distributing nodes throughout the community.
To ensure the fair distribution of all node license NFTs and take a snapshot of current node license holders, we will pause the node sale on May 8, 2024.

We express our heartfelt thanks to our partners and Aethirians, our community, for their constant support in our pursuit of decentralized ownership and a trustless ecosystem 🙏

Moving forward:
1️⃣ Aethir node sale closes on May 8, with a week left for community to purchase node licenses.
2️⃣ Visit https://t.co/B2AkMkvuzI to purchase node licenses.
3️⃣ We will snapshot current license owners for the upcoming $ATH token generation event.
4️⃣ Through governance, the community can decide if and when to resume the sale or perhaps burn all unsold checker node licenses.
