Someone said: "Are you taking the right #risks, for the right returns, within clearly defined limits?”
I responded: “And is your institution still healthy enough to stay within those limits when the unexpected arrives?”- Apanisile Temitope Samel, PhD| https://t.co/0oJLCg5WUT

@TomolaGroup Accounting shows you the past.
Management Economics shows you the breaking point.
One analyzes history and tells you where the coy’s been. The other diagnoses if you survive or fail and where you hold or will break next.

A man in ancient Babylon figured out wealth in 2000 BC. You are still figuring it out in 2026.
The Richest Man in Babylon teaches one rule above all others. Save at least one in every ten coins you earn and never touch it. Not for rent. Not for food. Not for emergencies. That portion belongs to your future self.
Arkad, the richest man in Babylon, started with nothing and built everything on this single discipline. The lesson is 4,000 years old. Most people still have not learned it.
It is humbling to consider that if we harness just 1 millionth of the Sun’s power for AI, that will be much more than a million times the intelligence of all of humanity
A Nigerian-founded company just got a global crypto giant to back it.
Ripple put money into Flutterwave, pushing its valuation to around $3.2 billion.
Here is why it touches you. Sending money across borders in Africa is brutally expensive, around 9% gone on a $200 transfer. This deal uses stablecoins to make it faster and cheaper.
Africans abroad send home about $97 billion every year. A big chunk disappears in fees. Cut those fees, and more of that money reaches families, not middlemen.
A company born in Lagos is quietly helping build the rails the whole continent will move money on.
During the dot-com boom, many investors rotated out of established companies like Berkshire Hathaway to chase high-growth tech stocks, a shift driven by cognitive biases and FOMO rather than fundamental analysis.
Mohnish Pabrai examines the behavioral patterns that lead investors to abandon undervalued assets during periods of underperformance and chase momentum in overvalued sectors. He explores how recognizing these psychological patterns can help you maintain conviction in quality holdings and avoid expensive mistakes.
Congratulations to SpaceX on today’s $75B IPO, the largest ever brought to market.
Goldman Sachs is honored to have served as lead left bookrunner on this transaction, but more than that, we are proud of the strong partnership our people have built with the SpaceX team over the long term. I’ve known Elon for more than 15 years, as have several of my colleagues, and it’s been incredible to see his vision come to life and to work with Gwynne, Bret, and the entire team.
We are excited as SpaceX enters this new chapter of its journey as a public company, and we look forward to supporting their mission of advancing the frontier of human space exploration.
Elon Musk announced a chip factory 10 times the size of Tesla's Gigafactory. The goal is to produce enough AI compute to equal twice the entire electricity consumption of the United States.
He called it the Terafab.
Here is the number that stopped me cold.
The entire global AI chip industry right now is on track to hit around 100 gigawatts per year of compute. Every Nvidia GPU, every Google TPU, every chip from every company on earth combined. 100 gigawatts.
Musk wants one factory to produce a terawatt per year.
A terawatt is 1,000 gigawatts. Ten times the output of the entire global industry. From a single building.
To put the scale in physical terms, the Terafab would need to be around 100 million square feet. You would need Starship point to point transport just to get from one end to the other.
But the reason for the scale is not ambition for its own sake.
To launch meaningful AI compute into space, you need a billion chips per year running at a kilowatt each. That is not a number the current industry can produce. The Terafab is the only way to get there.
The timeline he put out: a gigawatt of space AI compute annualized by end of next year. Then 10x per year from there. 10 gigawatts by year two. 100 gigawatts by year three. A terawatt beyond that.
Most people think orbital data centers are a decade away.
Musk is building the factory to make them possible by next year.
Here's how $SPCX makes money as of 2025
This needs a lot of updates as if the IPO date today. Here are a few contracts just to name a few
-- A compute contract for Google
-- A compute contract for Anthropic
-- A compute contract for an unknown mega cap
-- Major contracts from US Defense
But the gist of it remains
@SpaceX@XFreeze@skscartoon@DimaZeniuk@stats_feed Elon Musk

Nigeria sells raw cocoa at $8,000 a tonne. Processed into butter it earns $48,000. Made into chocolate it earns $240,000. 30 times the money, yet Nigeria is still choosing $8,000.
