Founder, Building the next great American media co

My 20s were for learning. My 30s will be for building

[will depue @willdepue]

my take nowadays is that lots of incredibly talented smart people waste years of their life floundering independently or being generally ineffective, mostly due to lack of experience/knowledge, when they should be inserting themselves into institutional power structures and quickly just dominating within them (given low talent bars). i’ve seen many friends join large established or developing companies and instantly climb within. most business, impact, and important work is power-law distributed.

but then the flipside is you really shouldn’t get stuck too long either. jump into an org, make a large impact, get experience, then use your newfound knowledge of how the industry/world works to go build something new.

Claude Design + Opus 4.8, wowza!

I can’t stop thinking about this post. If you do one thing today, I encourage you to give it a thoughtful, thorough read…

And then commit to never living your life this way. Life has wasted success on the people described in this post.

It really is completely pathetic. They say that comparison is the thief of joy - look no further than this post for validation it is indeed true.

On their deathbed they will realize they have lived their life completely wrong. Don’t let it be you.

@tclarkmedia Don’t apply logic to what can be chalked up to vibes and insider baseball

@tbpn is running the playbook on what will be the next generation of b2b media co's. They reach the right people.

It won't matter if you have 1 subscriber to your newsletter, podcast, etc. If that person is Elon Musk, you're operating a multi-million dollar business.

$1,000,000 a year to get what? At most 3000 views per video? TBPN is a total joke and no one will say it out loud.

@Polymarket So now even the platform that I try to make smart investment decisions with is going to temp me with a parlay

@djrosent good to hear you get plastic-pilled on the Coca Cola ep. Wait until you find out that aluminum cans are basically plastic bags 😂
