Thank you

@probablyleeroy @WallStreetApes @RyNGaulDin I’m guessing the reference to $6-7k is social security on top of a 100% p&t rating

I had a pair of Shaqs 🏀

[BILLIONAIRE UNIVERSITY® @TheBillionaireU]

In 1998 Shaquille O'Neal had a $40 million deal with Reebok.

Then a mother stopped him outside an arena and changed everything. She was furious. Told him he was charging kids too much for his shoes. Shag pulled $2,000 from his pocket and tried to hand it to her.
She smacked it away. "Why don't you make a shoe that's affordable?" That same day Shaq called Reebok. Told them to keep the $40 million. Walked away completely.
Then he went to Walmart and created his own shoe line priced at $19 to $29. Everyone said it would never work.

He has now sold over $10 billion worth of affordable shoes. Roughly one million pairs every single month. But the story doesn't end there. While building his shoe empire Shaq became the second largest individual shareholder in Authentic Brands Group, the company that owns Reebok, Forever 21, Brooks Brothers, Sports Illustrated and over 50 other global brands valued at $20 billion. In 2022 ABG bought Reebok for $2.5 billion. Shaq came back as President of Basketball Operations. Since his return Reebok revenue has grown from $1.6 billion to $5 billion.

He didn't just walk away from Reebok.
He came back 25 years later and helped rebuild it into a $5 billion brand.
Net worth today, $500 million. Annual income in retirement $95 million a year. More than triple what he made at the peak of his playing career.

[Displaced International @displacedint]

Former Afghan President Hamid Karzai, speaking from within Afghanistan, has again highlighted a reality many policymakers prefer to ignore: the conditions for safe and sustainable return do not yet exist. Economic hardship remains severe, girls remain denied education, and millions continue to face uncertainty about their rights, livelihoods, and future.

As the European Commission engages Taliban representatives on issues linked to migration and returns, European leaders should heed the voices of Afghans on the ground. Voluntary return becomes a durable solution only when peace is sustainable, governance is inclusive, fundamental rights are protected, and people can return home with dignity—not because they have been left with no other choice.

This is real first-hand footage of D-Day.

On a single morning, on a fifty-mile stretch of French coast, the largest invasion in human history began...

It was the 6th of June, 1944. By the end of that one day, around 160,000 Allied soldiers had crossed the English Channel and landed in Normandy.

They were carried by more than 5,000 ships and supported by some 13,000 aircraft, a fleet so vast that, to the men who saw it from the water, the horizon itself seemed to be made of steel.

The plan was almost insane in its ambition...

In the darkness after midnight, 23,400 paratroopers were dropped behind enemy lines to seize bridges and roads. At dawn, after a bombardment from sea and air, the infantry went in across five beaches, code-named Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno, and Sword.

What you are watching was filmed in those hours.

It is worth remembering what it actually shows. Each of those small landing craft held a few dozen men. When the ramps dropped, they stepped out into water and onto open sand, into machine-gun fire from concrete bunkers that had been built and ranged for exactly this.

On Omaha Beach, the worst of the five, the fighting was so severe that American forces alone suffered around 2,400 casualties in that single sector.

By the end of the day, at least 4,400 Allied soldiers were confirmed dead. Most of them were very young. Many had never been in combat before that morning, and would never see another.

What makes the day almost impossible to comprehend is not only its scale but its uncertainty. No one watching the boats go in knew it would work. Eisenhower had written a short note the night before, to be released if the invasion failed, taking the entire blame upon himself. He kept it folded in his wallet but he never had to use it...

Within a year, the war was over.

@weRessential @TRobinsonNewEra @grok is this true?

Sgt. Nicole Gee didn’t just give her life for our country. She also gave us one of the most powerful photos of our 20 years in Afghanistan.

There is no greater humanitarian than the American warfighter.
