In this beautiful week, from the Sagrada Familia to SpaceX’s IPO
The universe taught us one unbreakable truth
The world belongs to the dreamers ✨
Those who never dare have already lost
Elon just created 4,400 millionaires in a single day.
400 of them are now worth over $100 million.
These aren't VCs. They're SpaceX employees, and the list includes welders, technicians, and cafeteria staff, because for two decades the company paid every level of the workforce in stock instead of higher salaries.
Juan Hernandez immigrated from Mexico and took a $28 an hour contractor welding job in 2015. He says he didn't even know what SpaceX was. The company gave him a $10,000 equity grant and let him buy more shares through payroll deductions. That stake is now worth $880,000.
Trevor Hise's parents wanted him to take a stable job at General Electric. He picked SpaceX instead, stayed 12 years, and accumulated over 100,000 shares. At the $135 listing price that's $13.5 million. He's 37 and semiretired. His words: "The magnitude of this has been ridiculous."
The most telling detail came before the listing. Over 100 employees quietly banded together and negotiated a group wealth management deal covering up to $5 billion, because none of them had ever needed a wealth manager before.
Software IPOs have minted millionaires for 30 years. This is the first one where the money went to the factory floor.
Yes, the United States has the most progressive tax system in the world. The top 1% pay 40% of taxes, the bottom 50% pay 3% of taxes. We can make it even more progressive by zeroing out taxes on the bottom half. It’s a small amount of the total tax revenue but very meaningful to people in this group.
El subsecretario de Caficultura, Francisco Ordóñez, presentó un balance positivo sobre el comportamiento del sector cafetalero durante la cosecha 2025-2026. Según las estadísticas del Instituto Hondureño del Café (IHCAFE), la actividad exportadora ha logrado cifras sólidas que mantienen el optimismo en el sector, citó.
¡Cristo ha resucitado de entre los muertos y, con Él, también nosotros resucitamos a una vida nueva! Este anuncio pascual abraza el misterio de nuestra vida y el destino de la historia, y nos alcanza hasta en los abismos de la muerte. #Pascua
A weaker US Dollar helps drive:
1. Looser financial conditions (rate cuts)
2. Higher nominal GDP growth
3. Higher asset prices
4. Higher US exports and a lower trade deficit
5. Easier debt servicing for the US government
This is why Trump said the Dollar is doing "great."
Estimado Presidente @titoasfura,
Hoy, cuando comienza una nueva era para Honduras, le deseamos el mayor de los éxitos en su gestión.
Su llegada al poder representa una gran oportunidad para su país y toda la región. El pueblo de Honduras cuenta con los demócratas venezolanos, así como los venezolanos sabemos que contamos con usted y su gente para construir un hemisferio libre, próspero y seguro.
Un abrazo grande y Dios los bendiga.
