Ben Affleck explains the Sinners deal that made studios mad at Warner Bros
"Ryan did a really smart thing with that deal. There's going to be a reversion, so the movie reverts back to his ownership"
"In 10 years, when they license Sinners again, that's all going back to him. And he bet on himself"
"A lot of people on the studio side were mad at Warner Brothers because it was like, oh, you're giving away this value"

Nigeria’s Cocoa Ambition: Global Investors, Playmakers Meet At London Stock Exchange
Nigeria's Sunbeth Global Concepts has announced a 70,000 ton cocoa processing plant set for launch in March 2027. A landmark investment that signals a decisive shift in Nigeria's ambition to move from exporting raw cocoa beans to manufacturing finished chocolate.
Despite producing 70% of the world's cocoa, Africa makes less than 2% of finished chocolate and captures roughly 10% of the value chain.
$NVDA
If you're an investor, buy slowly every two weeks. Don't lump sum big here.
For me, I will be buying BIG if $NVDA can come down just a bit more closer to $130.
Until then, a lot of opportunities in the markets in other sectors.
Nigeria is not the GCC — we’re playing a completely different game.
Same oil, yes…
but spread across 200 million people.
So more money doesn’t mean transformation.
Oil wealth alone won’t turn Nigeria into Dubai.

Charlie Munger: "One of my favorite tricks is the inversion process."
"If somebody hired me to fix India, I would immediately say, 'What could I do if I really wanted to hurt India?' I'd figure out all the things that could most easily hurt India — and then I'd figure out how to avoid them."
"It works better frequently to invert the problem."
Charlie Munger: "I have been blessed with some very remarkable partners ... How do you get a marvelous partner? It's a very simple trick. Here's what you do — you deserve a marvelous partner."
"By the way, it works in marriage, too."
Warren Buffett on how he'd make 50% a year with a small amount of money:
Buffett explains that when he was 20 or 21, he went through thousands of pages of Moody's manuals, reading about hundreds of obscure companies most investors had never heard of.
"I went through the Moody's transportation manual a couple of times, that was 1,500 pages, and I found all kinds of interesting things."
This deep research is what connected him with Charlie Munger.
Buffett knew the details of tiny West Coast companies that Munger thought nobody else had heard of. "That became an instant point of connection."
His advice for earning high returns with limited capital:
"I would try and know everything about everything small and with a million dollars you could earn 50% a year. But you have to be in love with the subject. You can't just be in love with the money."
Buffett compares it to great chess or bridge players who succeed because the game itself excites them, not just the rewards.
"The human brain does its best when you find out what your brain is really suited for. And then you just pound the hell out of it from that point."
