To the young bros that follow me on here, allow me to share my experience as a father.

I was a never-kids guy for a long time.

Told myself all the standard lines - didn’t want to cramp my freedom, can’t afford it, like to sleep in, want to make money first, when will I travel, Call of Duty needs me, etc.

Thankfully God intervened on that young boy mindset and gave me my first son via a “surprise!” over 6 years ago. I was 36 at the time.

The moment I saw that child I completely understood the highest calling for a man.

Not career. Not money. Not countries visited. Not toys.

It is family. Your highest calling as a man is being a father.

The lens through which I viewed the world changed instantly.

I immediately cared about the future in a way that I’d never felt before.

I cared about what I represented. The example I set. The world I was building for my children to live in one day.

Having kids made me more money, too.

You have a different focus when you have your little people depending upon you. I promise that, in fact.

I don’t know one friend of mine that made less money as a father. It upgrades your focus and ambition.

While I’m not a regretful person, I tell everyone who will listen to me that I sincerely wish I started having kids earlier.

Not just because I would have absolutely had two more children. And I absolutely would have.

But now I’m thinking about how excited I am to relive these adventures with my grandchildren.

If I had kids at 26 - rather than 36 - that would have given me 10 more years with my grandchildren. Maybe even their children.

You young guys need to think in terms of legacy and deep fulfillment.

You need to think in terms of decades, not what’s in front of your face right now.

I will wholeheartedly agree that you shouldn’t have kids until you’re ready. And maybe for a few of you, that time never comes.

But for any of you that are loosely on the fence - this is for you.

Maybe you are telling yourself those same stories that all the never-kids nerds tell themselves so they don’t have to “grow up”.

My best advice for you is to stop that frat boy nonsense, fall in love, and build deep roots in a family.

Come back to me in 10 years and I promise you’ll tell me it was the greatest decision you ever made as a man.

Happy Father’s Day gents.

@TheHarrisSultan Too late they are likely citizens.

I say bring Singaporean laws.

@ahmadsalims @MihrThakar African problem in a nutshell.

You should watch bantu city diaries on youtube.

Us lot seem like a mess mostly.

I asked Gemini why so many creators are migrating from X to Substack.

The answer? A fundamental clash in platform design and incentives.

X has become an algorithmic treadmill. Its ad-driven model inherently rewards outrage, contrarianism, and low-effort noise to farm impressions.

For professionals who miss the high-signal, text-first networking of early Twitter, the platform's current identity crisis feels incredibly volatile and directionless.

Substack offers an audience sanctuary. By replacing ad algorithms with direct email subscriptions and launching text spaces like Substack Notes it rewards depth and nuance over cheap virality.

On X, you rent a volatile audience from a platform that owns your reach. On Substack, you actually own your list and build an independent digital asset you control.

Did you migrate and what is your experience so far?

Its finally time for crypto to wake up. If only for a bit before a long sleep.

One more flash down, intense fear, so says @HenrikZeberg

The grave dancing has begun. 😄 We are ready .... or so i think.

A couple of years ago, a young chap named Ansem urged me to purchase something called solana:EKpQGSJtjMFqKZ9KQanSqYXRcF8fBopzLHYxdM65zcjm at nearly $4 a pop.

I foolishly obliged.

Today it trades at $0.17, and I'm still holding the blasted coins.

Big tech is set to spend $600B+ on AI infrastructure in 2026, up from ~$448B in 2025.

A 36% jump in one year.

Tech investment now sits near 4.4% of GDP, approaching the dot-com peak.

The catch: AI revenue is only ~$25B today. That's 4% of the spend.

Right or very wrong - Bubble or not a bubble is the big question.

How the mighty have fallen, although I believe they will eventually rise again.

$MTPLF 88% down. Back to the prices of Feb 2025. Meanwhile the likes of KOSPI, SP500 e.t.c pushing All time highs this year.

Given how quick money moves through the DAT ecosystem a rotation could push some euphoria into this darklands.

Let's see.

@TheBigCycleGame No doubt, fingers crossed for the money hot ball that may get into DATs.

When the likes of Metaplanet are down 88% in a year, things are rough.

[Nhial Majok @ainhial]

@FroehlichThors1 When they come back, they could be a quick and crazy upswing...

DATs Volume.

I did a quick look at volume during those high spike up periods for DATs like $SBET and $ORBS .

ORBS had a one day volume of over 300mil USD (September 2025), what the thell 😅.

SBET seems to have kept its volume for longer, about a month ranging $100Million USD to $300Million between May & August 2025.

It's like a flash flood. If you are not ready, its done and gone in flash!

[Nhial Majok @ainhial]

@TheBigCycleGame It can be really unpredictable as well. Quick like a flood, look at this. 👇

is it just me or has @AnthropicAI cracked useability for indiehackers and small businesses.

This simple setup of having chat, next to cowork next to code is amazing.

Over the last week, I just moved between cowork and code and built my first serious website - https://t.co/JlqbxmTAYI

Lets see how this idea goes.

[Pierre-Eliott Lallemant @pierreeliottlal]

We went from 0 to 2,200 paying customers in under a year by following @ycombinator's 15 rules:

1/ Do things that don't scale. Get your first 10 customers by hand.

2/ Launch now, not when it's "ready". A mediocre product in front of real users teaches you more in a week than 6 months of polishing in the dark.

3/ Charge from day one. If nobody will pay, you don't have a startup, you have a hobby.

4/ Talk to users every single day. The roadmap you need is sitting in your customers' heads, and they'll hand it to you for free

5/ Always hunt the 90/10 solution. For almost any feature there's a way to capture 90% of the value with 10% of the effort.

6/ There are only two real jobs: write code and talk to users. Everything else (conferences, press, VC coffees, corp dev calls) is fake work.

7/ You pick your customers as much as they pick you. 10 users who love you beat 1,000 who kind of like you.

8/ Growth is an output, not a strategy. Grow before product market fit and all you're buying is churn.

9/ Do less, really well. Pick one or two metrics and judge every task against them.

10/ Know if you're default alive. Paul Graham's question: on current growth and current burn, do you reach profitability before the money runs out?

11/ Don't hire until it hurts. Headcount is not progress, it's burn. Every great startup was embarrassingly small for embarrassingly long.

12/ Momentum is the only real moat in year one. Ship something every week, even something tiny.

13/ Every great startup is badly broken at some point. The game isn't avoiding fires, it's how fast you put them out. Again. And again

14/ Ignore your competitors. Startups die of suicide, not murder. In year one, the only company that can kill yours is your own

15/ Startups rarely die from running out of money. They die because the founders fall out. Brutal honesty with your cofounder is the cheapest insurance you'll ever buy

Good luck !

My current most intriguing channel on youtube - BantuCityDiaries! On on X - @BantuPage !

Honestly explains alot regarding our people. 😂 I think they should have one called nilotpages as well.

I think we are worse then our bantu brothers and sisters.

For those that don't know - Nilotic people tend to be tall and dark e.g. Masai, Luo, Dinka, Nuer. Bantus tend to be shorter, browner. Kikuyus in Kenya, Zulu, Xhosa in South Africa.

Why this channel - Guy doesn't hold back..😂
