[001] Being a business owner is just getting better and better at managing your money → flex.one

[018] Being a business owner is just dreaming about passive income except the reality is you replying to texts and emails at a wedding or in the shower

[011] Being a business owner is just kicking yourself over how underpriced your product/service was 6 months ago, every 6 months

[010] Being a business owner is just deciding which fires to let burn

[009] Being a business owner is just telling people you're your own boss except your boss is a maniacal tyrant who has unreasonable expectations and never takes a break

[008] Being a business owner is just loving the fact that you get to work as many hours as you want on building your dream, it doesn't get much better than that

[007] Being a business owner is just delegating a task to someone and then panicking inside when they only do it 70% as good as you

[006] Being a business owner is just measuring days by how much shit you got done rather than in hours like normal people

[005] Being a business owner is just "quickly checking 1 thing" before bed and then all of a sudden it's 4am and you've just redone the entire website

[004] Being a business owner is just realizing with each new hire another 10 undocumented things you've been keeping in your head

[003] Being a business owner is just knowing in the back of your mind you have that one spreadsheet that, if it broke, would end the company

[002] Being a business owner is just celebrating a win by immediately worrying about the next one for legal and emotional reasons

today is my birthday. i won't be leaking how old i turned because i think a lot of people would be frankly surprised by how young i am. looking back this has honestly been the greatest year of my life. i went from running my own failed crypto card startup to joining the team at @flexsuperapp, helping scale crypto and global banking alongside some truly exceptional people. working with our ceo @zaidrmn, our head of crypto @randombankguy, and the rest of the killers on the team like @thetimhe, @emmanuelgkamau, @nickparis3, and @pixelatedvince has completely changed how i think about life and business. not just because of how exceptionally smart they are, but because of the standards they hold themselves to and the intensity they bring every single day. it's made me a much such a harder worker and a much better person. i am blessed to have the privilege of sitting in rooms with founders and ceos i never imagined i'd meet. people building multi billion dollar companies that i used to only know from the internet are now people i get to speak with on a regular basis thanks to my role at Flex and the community i've built on X. over the last few months, close to 6,000 of you have decided to follow me on X. never in a million years did i expect so many people to care to hear me yap about my thoughts on crypto, neobanks, fintech, and business. thank you to each and every one of you. every follow, reply, dm, phone call, and conversation means more than you know. a year ago i never would've believed i'd be where i am today. if there's one thing i've learned, it's that almost anything is possible if you're willing to keep showing up every single day. keep dreaming. keep working. and most importantly, never give up. life is amazing.

@thetimhe I feel this on a daily basis

as a business owner, there's real pride in a boring month where nothing goes wrong.

Today we're officially opening up Hippo Campus, our first SF office, to the public! We are inviting about 40 people to come cowork with us at our office, and about half the seats have been taken already. The location is amazing, and the vibes are already terrific. It has a lot of amenities and 24/7 access, and we'll continuously build out the space to be an even more comfortable third place for you. Full details below.

@ericbahn @dunkhippo33 you're in sf right? coffee next week?

@thetimhe @dunkhippo33 Would love to finally meet you, @thetimhe, enjoyed laughing at your stuff on socials!

I am pleased to publicly announce the opening of Hippo Campus. It's for founders and startup enthusiasts who are tired of working from your couch, where your only coworker is your dead houseplant. More >>

@telekineticpxls another fun event idea

@zaidrmn hot flex summer

@defyneric eric joins in may, then we have a record month in june. coincidence? i think not

@thetimhe insane place to be at

just got off our weekly finance and data report call. June has officially been the best month ever in Flex history. highest TPV in company history. we crossed $10B in annualized payment volume. highest monthly revenue. ever. improved our margins by vertically integrating more products into our stack. record number of businesses onboarded. and we still have 4 days left in the month to go. with all this being said we haven’t yet launched: > Flex Global > Stablecoins > and 4 other major products in the coming years Flex’s valuation will be up there with Amex & Revolut
