been having some deep thinking, soul searching with my wife.
all you really need in life:
- doing something you’re passionate about, something that doesn’t need to make sense to anyone else and your NOT trying to monetize.
- meaningful relationship(s) and a real sense of community. we’re not robots just yet.
- keeping your brain stimulated, learning something new every day or every week, through a class, a routine, something intentional.
- good sleep, 6–8 hours. easier to some, hard for a lot of folks.
- nutrition dialed in and some kind of reset like a 36+ hour weekly fast.
- movement; gym, yoga, walks, whatever… this becomes non negotiable as you get older.
poor or rich, we end up in the same place. it was never about the beginning or the ending, it’s always been the journey. i’ve met all kinds of people, and honestly? the ones living paycheck to paycheck but saving every scrap for that one trip or for their kid’s ___ expense… they’re often happier than the millionaire sitting alone with every material thing and no one to share it with.
at some point you realize life isn’t about chasing more, it’s about choosing better.
the real flex is waking up excited, going to bed proud, and spending the in-between with people who make your life feel full.

Dumb question:
Every ___ period of time, there is a new leader in the model wars. Codex right now. Claude before that. Something else before that.
For the average person just trying to keep up, is the delta actually meaningful enough to switch every time?
We are expanding our US investment team, looking for both early and growth stage investors, in NYC or willing to move. Looking to add both people with product/eng experience and those who have invested in fintech/SaaS/etc before. Come hang with myself, @tomhschmidt, and @TheOneandOmsy in Union Square if you want to spend all your time thinking about the future of finance.
