Don’t wait until retirement is around the corner to plan for it.

The Fund’s Managing Director, @PatrickAyota, explains how starting early, saving consistently and allowing compound interest to work over time can help build your retirement savings.

Start now. Stay consistent. Give your savings time to grow.

State of HIV/Aids:
1. Highest prevalence generally is now among older women, aged 40-44, with prevalence of 15.7%. Told they're also known as SOW
2. For men, highest prevalence is among those aged 45-49, at 11.7%
3. Regionally, South West (Ankole & Kigezi) has highest prevalence (8%, up from 6.3% in 2021), followed by South Buganda at 7.3%
4. Big message? Test and know your status. In Uganda, only 85.3% of adults living with HIV know their status. For those who know, 99% are on treatment & of these 96.5% have achieved viral suppression.

Police in Mbarara are holding Twinomujuni Robert the driver of vehicle UAQ 578Q, a bus belonging to Ibabu Bus Company after he was intercepted at Biharwe Checkpoint and tested for alcohol.
The driver was subjected to a breathalyser test & found to have alcohol in his system. He was subsequently detained and is expected to be produced in court to face the relevant charges.
This serves as a reminder to all PSVs drivers that road safety checks are ongoing. All checkpoints are equipped with breathalysers and officers will conduct prompt alcohol tests on PSV drivers whenever there is suspicion that a driver is under the influence of alcohol.
Driving passengers while under the influence of alcohol puts many innocent lives at risk. Do not drink and drive. Your passengers' lives are in your hands.

Stay calm. Stay alert. Stay responsible.

Elon’s advice to 20-year-olds on surviving the AI era:

Get as broad-based an education as possible: arts, sciences, engineering, and wide general knowledge.

Why?

AI and robots will fulfill almost any request immediately.The edge won’t be doing the work. It will be knowing what to ask for. The broader your knowledge, the better your questions.

13,000 employees became 3 in the space of one week.

It’s quite difficult to comprehend what that would do to a person.

Adam Neumann is the co-founder of WeWork. He grew the company to a $47 billion valuation before its failed IPO, his departure as CEO and one of the most public corporate collapses in recent history.

I’ve met hundreds of extraordinary people doing this podcast, but within a few minutes of meeting Adam I realised he was quite unlike almost any founder or CEO I’ve met before.

There’s a depth, philosophy and perspective to him that is incredibly rare.

So I wanted to understand where that came from and what the last few years had actually done to him.

We talked about:
- His relationship with money and where it went wrong.
- The friends who disappeared when everything changed.
- The mistakes he made as a leader.
- Why he now surrounds himself with people willing to tell him no.
- Why he disconnects from technology for 24 hours every week.

One thing that stayed with me is how easy it is to believe in yourself when everything is going up and everybody wants to be around you.

The more interesting question is what you believe when everything is crashing.

You can have your own view on Adam and WeWork. That tension is partly why I found this conversation so interesting.

I wanted to know what all of it taught him.

He knows what your favourite artists don’t tell you.

I’ve been waiting 8 years to sit down with the person who has spent his life quietly helping some of the greatest artists in the world make some of their greatest work.

That person is Rick Rubin.

Rick co-founded Def Jam at 21 and has gone on to work with people like Jay-Z, Kanye West, Adele, Johnny Cash and the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

The reason I’ve wanted to speak to him for so long has much less to do with the names.

Rick is a master of creativity and collaboration, and I wanted to understand how he sees things.

How can someone sit in the room with that many extraordinary artists, across completely different generations and genres, and continue to be useful to them?

What surprised me most about this conversation was how little Rick talks about success.

He talks about paying attention. Listening to yourself. Being willing to make something other people might not understand.

Protecting the part of you that was creative before the world started telling you what was good, bad, sensible or successful.

We discussed things like:

- Why Kanye’s fearlessness makes him such an interesting artist.
- What he saw in Jay-Z’s process that he had never seen before.
- Why Rick believes creativity is gradually being beaten out of us.
- What does he notice that other people miss?
- Why some of the best creative decisions make very little logical sense at the time.

This was one of those conversations that went much deeper than I expected. Rick has spent decades thinking about creativity, taste, collaboration and what allows people to make their best work, and there’s a real depth to the way he understands all of it.

Towards the end I asked Rick a very simple question: “What is your job?”

His answer was, "Support people in making their beautiful things.”

After waiting 8 years to have this conversation, that answer probably explains Rick better than any list of records, awards or famous names ever could.

If you’ve ever wanted to understand how your favourite artists actually think and work, or how to protect more of your own creativity, I think you’ll take a lot from this conversation.
