Elon Musk's advice to kids: Try to give more than you take.
Lucas: “Hey Elon, I'm Lucas. I have a question for you. What's the best advice for your children?”
Elon: “The best advice for kids? Generally, my advice is just to try to be as useful as possible to society.
Be a good person, and just try to give more than you take. That's a big deal.”

The new Models 3 and Y Standard will compete directly with these cars:
- Honda Accord (EX trim) $36,500
- Toyota Camry (LE Hybrid) $37,200
- Mazda CX-5 (Select trim) $36,800
- Honda CR-V (EX-L) $37,000
- Ford Maverick (XLT Hybrid AWD) $36,900
- Ford Mustang (EcoBoost) $37,500
- Hyundai Ioniq 6 base $42,009
When I say compete, I mean dominate. None of these cars come close to what Tesla offers for the same price.
David Friedberg Breaks Down Zohran Mamdani's Win in NYC: The College Debt Crisis Has Led Young People to Socialism
"It's really a revolution against the system that brought them to this moment."
"Because the promise that we gave in America, the American Dream, was if you go to college, you will graduate, you will have income, you will have stability, you'll be able to buy a home."
"And what we did is we increased the government's role in making that dream possible, and in doing so, we created effectively a system where we gave unrestricted access to capital, which inflated the cost of education."
" People could go to school like Zohran and major in African studies and graduate with $200-300K of debt and then never get a job. The guy has not had a real job. And this is the truth for 32 million young Americans."
" They all have what is called negative capital. They have debt and they will never be able to get out of that cycle."
"So where do you turn in that moment? You don't go turn to corporations to solve your problems. You don't go turn to your friends and your siblings and your family, they're not gonna bail you out."
"You turn to the voting booth, and you hear a guy like Zohran show up and say, 'There can be a better path forward.' The better path forward is the government can and should do more to help."
"And in doing more to help, we will increase government, we will tax the rich, we will tax the corporations. We will take all of that capital and we will redistribute it in the form of services and checks and support for all of the people that find themselves unable to take care of themselves."
"And this becomes a tipping point when the majority of the voter base ends up in that situation where they're that deeply in need, where they have negative capital."
"And that is the situation America finds itself in today."
Unlike the early church in Acts, which saw Jesus as a model for navigating suffering, the modern Western church often views Jesus’ suffering as a shield from our own.
We often fall into the illusion that following the “right” path guarantees a life free of hardship. But Kingdom faith embraces suffering as part of the journey.
@chuckbentley@RyanHoliday What I enjoy about it is I don't have to jump into every social media conversation to give my opinion on very complex issues. Everything is not black/white.
Not a lot of people understand this... but you actually don’t have to have an opinion about everything. You don’t have to decide if something is good or bad. Marcus Aurelius says limiting the amount of opinions we have is one of the most powerful things we can do in life.
