I worry about the average American who owns no businesses, few stocks, sparse assets, and doesn't understand AI.
We are in an asset ownership race.

The curse of being smart...
You see the game everyone else is playing.
And you still have to act like you don’t.

The most valuable thing you can do as a wife is to support your husband.
Never be the one to talk down, shame, or belittle.

It's really the small things in life that matter.
Are you healthy?
Do you have family?
Friends to invite over?
Work that stretches you?
That's being truly rich.

Why taste [judgement] is your only moat in a world of infinite AI output. Loved this episode ... "AI can write, code, and think cheaper than you — what's left? Your edge isn't intelligence anymore. It's taste, focus, and emotional depth."
Great message for everyone trying to understand a viable path forward with AI. Thx @Codie_Sanchez

The number 1 trait of a highperformer today, you have taste. It will be even more important as AI takes over.

You’re not broke. You’re just early.
You eat glass for a decade.
Everyone thinks you’re crazy.
Then, in one weird year, you make more than you did in the last 10 combined.

It kills me how many people say they'd die for a chance when in reality they won't even work late for one.
it is all yours to lose and the barrier is low.

A luxury that no one realized was a real luxury, having job security.

If you had to pick one industry that'll survive this...it isn't even the trades, it's medicine.
Anything that lets boomers live longer and more comfortably will explode as they extend life with big bank accounts.

This is my favorite way to build... voice to perfect prompt... topprompt.ai

Best money I've ever spent as a CEO... an internal AI transformation hire.
He doesn't care about title. He just wants to ship. And he goes across your entire org, sales, revenue, hr, apps, tech and kills stupid manual processes.
Such an underrated unlock I have since hired 2 more.

@garrytan Does anyone know any businesses she actually operates outside of selling courses?? Genuinely curious. 🧐 * And not “investor in *

Actually
The CEO must be this person

@ericosiu ;) that’s a false dichotomy.
like saying if you hire killer sales people you don’t sell as the founder.
If you want to build a big company, you do both.

@Codie_Sanchez Respectfully, I think this needs to be a CEO or co-founder job. The best founders I know are barely getting any sleep.
The ones that are handing it off can’t see the tidal wave.

I’ll write up next week how we find, vet and deploy them across our companies =>

Underrated truth: You’ll make more money if you use AI smartly, than if you yourself are smarter. Prompting is the skill. Talent, degrees, experience, don't matter as much as speaking the language of AI. If you prompt well, you have a team of analysts, writers, and coders working for you 24/7.

@RyanMull We train.
But it is definitely learn or move on.

A lot of founders are missing the point of tools like Claude Code. Don’t think who you can replace with it. Use it to create more builders in your org. Give your team ways to make their job easier, more productive, and more fun. We tested this at CT HQ last week - internal automation hackathon, $1,000 prize. Create intrapreneuers in your biz.

@Codie_Sanchez Great post! Genuinely curious what you’re doing with all of your other employees, when the gap between these new AI focused hires and other employees, from a straight tech standpoint, will be closed here fairly soon. Are they left out? Are they getting durable AI skills training?
English
@garrytan Disagree.
The CEO should be finding the hardest highest ROI problem in the company and trying to solve it every single day.

@JJEnglert @tenex_labs I love @businessbarista he’s the man. Fun to see what you all are building ;)

@Codie_Sanchez Having huge success with it as well with at @tenex_labs .
