47 years young and feeling BETTER than I ever have in my life 🔥

No excuses. Just consistency, iron, and the right mindset.

If you think your best years are behind you… you’re wrong.

The gym doesn’t care how old you are, it only rewards who shows up.

Who’s training hard today? Let’s see it 💪

Be ubiquitous

[Crémieux @cremieuxrecueil]

Starlink launches now substantially outnumber all other satellite launch sources.

[Jon Weiss @weissjon]

@cremieuxrecueil @elonmusk Volume. Distribution. Is always the play.

@Camp4 This hits hard. Good post.

[Jon Weiss @weissjon]

Such great perspective

[Kevin Dahlstrom @Camp4]

If you’re 50 or younger, I have good news for you:

You’re a Time Billionaire, with over a billion seconds left to live.

You’re wealthier than Warren Buffett!

🙄 Before you roll your eyes and keep scrolling, consider this question:

Would you trade places with Buffett, who’s worth $150 billion… but is 95 years old?

I bet not.

But I’m pretty sure that Uncle Warren would enthusiastically trade places with you.

Here’s why this perspective matters:

A billion seconds from now, you’d give anything to be the age you are today. What would 2056-you tell 2026-you to do?

Spend hours doom-scrolling?
Argue politics?
Play it safe?

Of course not. Older-you would shake you by the shoulders and tell you to wake up and go for it:

Dream big
Help others
See the world
Read and write
Explore spirituality
Try something new
Say hi to that cute guy/girl
Ask for that thing you want
Make a dent in the universe
Have the tough conversation
Treat your body like a temple
Build things that will outlast you
Forgive and let go of resentment
Spend more time with loved ones

The clock is ticking…
999,999,999
999,999,998
999,999,997
…

Your extraordinary wealth won’t last forever.

How will you spend it?

@TonyRobbins The real ones know that class never stops.

@davidsenra @pmarca Agree

@byBDavis Exactly! Made the same observation

[Jon Weiss @weissjon]

@KobeissiLetter Bitcoin going to 40k or maybe zero. I’m still not selling.

[Jon Weiss @weissjon]

Wembanyama is great. But he is not that dude yet. Not LeBron, Kobe, Jordan level clutch. This moment is not going to be his. Not this year. Stop calling him generational talent. Not there yet.

[Jon Weiss @weissjon]

I did not have Kat outplaying Wemby on my bingo card. Knicks going to sweep this thing. It’s over.

@markpinc The arrogance is unbearable

[Jon Weiss @weissjon]

@homegymcoop Zero percent chance these kids don’t turn out to be completely awesome in life with a dad like this. 👏

While I’m no fan of socialism or arbitrary confiscations of wealth, I can see why Bernie Sanders’ proposal (for the government to take a 50% stake in AI companies) resonates, including with many on the right.

The CEOs of the leading AI labs have told us repeatedly that they will cause massive job loss. This is not a story that I believe, nor does the data bear it out, but this is what they have told us. Similarly, they have hyped the risks of AI without putting an equal or greater emphasis on the benefits or readily available mitigations.

Conservatives have another fear. The employees of the leading labs claim to be philanthropic, but what we’ve seen is massive enrichment of NGOs advancing an agenda at odds with traditional values, fueling a revolution against our cities and communities. Soros-maxxing is not charity in our book.

Anthropic and OpenAI have established themselves as Public Benefit Corporations. What could be more in the public benefit than using half the wealth generated by these companies (which trained for free on the collective knowledge of humanity) to pay down the national debt? There is no ideological bias in that philanthropy.

Dario and Sam have begun to walk back their claims of massive job loss, but the damage to public trust is done, and now the chickens are coming home to roost. I could almost support the Sanders proposal as a stupidity tax.

There’s just one problem. Nationalization of AI will accelerate the corporate-government fusion we’re already sliding toward. Conservatives rightly fear a Central Bank Digital Currency. They ought to be even more concerned about Central Government AI — a system with even more totalistic power over information, decision-making, and human behavior.

We saw how social media was weaponized to censor conservatives (including President Trump) in the last Democrat administration. The definition of “trust & safety” expanded to mean protecting the public from supposed psychological harms, micro-aggressions, and disinformation (you know, like hearing conservative ideas or true facts about Covid).

That “safety” agenda as applied to AI will be vastly more powerful and Orwellian. AI won’t just moderate posts; it will curate reality — with the ability to rewrite history, enforce ideological conformity, influence policy at scale, mass surveil Americans, and condition the benefits of the many systems it controls on approved behavior.

America won’t win the AI race if we beat China but end up with a CCP-style social credit system in the U.S. — and that is the danger as the government becomes more deeply involved in AI development and assumes direct ownership and control.

Conservatives are right to fear where this is all headed but ought to think more carefully about how regulations they are flirting with now (that are widely celebrated among those with a long history of lust for Big Government) will be used against them the next time a Democrat administration is in power.

@its_The_Dr @elonmusk can legit use this. 😂

[Jon Weiss @weissjon]

I will never forget the moment I chose to leave my corporate job. It’s burned into my soul.

I can remember almost everything about that moment. The exact room. Where I was sitting. What I was wearing and the exact conversation.

It was almost 10 years ago.

I knew if I didn’t leave I would never leave. I would never know the answer of what might have been.

I would wake up 50 years old with heavy regrets. I was scared of that. Legit scared. One life. Thats all we get.

It was like knowing you had to jump off the cliff, looking over the edge but terrified to do it. But knowing you must!

I was 38 at the time. I’m 47 now. Ten years into the entrepreneur journey.

I left a six figure income & job security for soup and crackers, an 80% pay cut and a completely unknown future.

Success has come but not
Immediately, still not in overwhelming measure and not without incredible sacrifices along the way.

But it has come and how I measure it has changed.

This leap. It was worth it. I have no regrets. I know I’m right where I need to be.

Still climbing. Still grinding. Still investing in everyone, my team, my company but most of all my family, my wife and my future. Our future.

I’m happy. Content, yet committed to grinding on…while totally at peace with my journey.

@C_3C_3 He’s going to get zero out of the next 100k. Watch.

[Jon Weiss @weissjon]

@Jayyanginspires I was afraid of staying in a corporate gig, being successful and waking up at 50 saying what if. Fear of regrets is powerful so I took the leap. Zero regrets.

[Jon Weiss @weissjon]

@elonmusk @jackunheard The question is will anyone intervene
