Simple issue here, the lack of understanding Colombian culture. We have a saying “el que come callado, come dos veces” or “he who eats in silence eats twice” you cannot boast on social media about sex tourism or even try to come in and capitalize off of it (which is a horrible idea, if you know who controls what).
Colombia is still a very catholic country, whose sins are done in the dark not the light. Colombians don’t want to be known for anything that is widely frowned upon. How come sex tourism was done for decades but it only became a problem once social media started popping off? As with everything else, whatever you do, do it with class and subtlety.
Lived in many places around the world and had high expectations of government bodies to help their citizens. As I age, it becomes more and clear that the only path forward is through altruism, incredible work done here.
My first contact with a computer was at six years old. At eight, my father gave me a laptop. That’s where I learned to program. Then, at 14, I entered cybersecurity, after my family and I were displaced by violence when I was 12.
Over time, that path led me to become one of the most prominent cybersecurity figures from Colombia on the global stage.
Years later, I returned to Tumaco, where I was born, and delivered computers to young people eager to learn technology. I supported foundations, a library, and a teacher who is shaping children in one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in the area.
That’s why my focus is on the youth, giving them the tools to amplify their potential, deepen their skills, and ultimately impact their families and the world.
I left a message, change cannot depend on the state alone. It also begins with people, those who choose to contribute, build, and invest in children, because they are the future of civilization.
🚨 Do you understand what just happened..
the owner of OnlyFans just died at 43.. Leonid Radvinsky.. the man made $3 billion off a platform where other people sell themselves..
he took 20% of every transaction.. every video.. every message.. every tip.. while creators fought algorithms and chargebacks and deplatforming threats just to make rent.. he sat at the top collecting a cut of their bodies.. and everyone called him a "tech founder"..
the man wasn't a tech founder.. he was the most successful middleman in history..
and the wildest part.. OnlyFans was profitable from day one.. no VC money.. no IPO.. because when your business model is taking a fifth of what someone earns from their own skin.. you don't need investors.. you need creators desperate enough to not ask questions..
he had $3 billion and still couldn't beat cancer at 43.. what exactly are we all racing toward.

"Not having a coding experience is becoming an advantage."
Replit CEO Amjad Masad:
"You don't need any development experience. You need grit. You need to be a fast learner."
"If you're a good gamer, if you can jump in a game and figure it out really quickly, you're really good at this."
"Coders get lost in the details."
"Product people, people who are focused on solving a problem, on making money, they're going to be focused on marketing, they're going to be focused on user interface, they're going to be focused on all the right things."
"I think this year it's gonna flip, and I think not having a coding background is gonna be more advantageous for the entrepreneur."
