@paulg @Noahpinion When it gets to the point where you don’t have to pay attention to the road visiting home while sleeping in your car overnight would be game changing.

Whoah, self-driving cars compete with airlines. I never considered that till now.

@ShaanVP Send it!

I'm secretly launching a 2nd youtube channel reply "send it" and I'll dm it to you

@thesamparr Okay I love these videos but sorting them out from the other content on your Hampton YouTube channel is a challenge. Any chance you can throw all these interviews in a playlist? Either way keep these videos coming!

There’s a in Hampton who runs a company doing $30m in revenue with very few employees He did a screenshare showing the tools he uses to make it happen. youtube.com/watch?v=Vyo2BJ…

@ViktorThulin @amasad @Replit Just curious how you’re getting clients. Cold outbound or also using AI for this in one form or another?

In 2025 I made $120k with Replit. In 2026, I expect to make over $1M with Replit. Here is a recap of my journey building a business with @Replit

@waitbutwhy Brother put a chainsaw through his. The scream is still a vivid memory and the sight traumatized my cousin for a while. Surgery left a nasty scar but he got lucky and has full mobility and is very active. Crazy what the body can recover from.

Apparently I'm wrong and achilles tendons heal on their own. Happy for ancient people.

Until recently, snapping your achilles tendon just made you a cripple for life

@shaneparrish @outwaysocks @robbfraser Super cool. Surprised the US is such a small portion of total sales. Phenomenal growth and a phenomenal company.

I’ve started getting the kids to read shareholder letters by founders I love. (I print them out and bring them to Friday night dinner.) Tonight is @outwaysocks and @robbfraser 🔥🔥

@tobi @melqtx Checking in. Did you do it?

@J_W_Sinclair @melqtx i'm going to make one

we as a society need to recognize Richard Feynman more. he was the thing I aspire to be most: too smart to be killed. Nothing could touch that man. He joined the Manhattan Project and promptly broke into every safe in Los Alamos to read all the secret documents just for funsies. The government’s response? “Just don’t let him in your office”. That was the solution. Stop him at the door so he can’t steal military secrets out of boredom. He also constantly messed with the official censors by writing to his relatives in code and filling his mail with powdered Pepto-Bismol. While lecturing in Brazil, he joined a samba band and performed in Carnaval. Just because. He won a Nobel Prize after messing around throwing plates in the air and deciding to figure out the mechanics behind a spinning plate being tossed across a room. I love Richard Feynman so much.

@tobi I think the larger reason a lot of people are frustrated with capitalism is the affordability problem. You should be able to work a good job and have an average life. I still think capitalism is awesome but I can see where people’s frustrations are coming from.

Exactly this

@s8mb I have a feeling I’m going to be happy about this impulse purchase!

The first print issue of Works In Progress is landing on people's doorsteps today! Over the next week or so, our thousands of subscribers, everywhere from Alaska to Australia, should be receiving their first copy. We are trying to make the most beautiful physical magazine on the planet, and I am very excited about how we've started. This issue has pieces on inflatable space stations (which you can read online today – worksinprogress.co/issue/inflatab…), the war between the Swiss and Japanese watch industries, the "great downzoning" in the world's cities, and on whether Ancient Greek and Roman statues were really painted as badly as museums claim (perhaps not). And much more. I hope you all enjoy it! And if you'd like to get a copy of this edition, you can subscribe here and you'll be sent this most recent copy, along with the rest of your year's subscription as it comes out: worksinprogress.co/print/

@marctuinier This is awesome on its own but I think it has the opportunity to really capture market share from people wanting to reduce screen time and especially from folks with ADHD that find digital devices distracting but need shareable notes.

I always wanted a pen that tracked everything I ever wrote down So we built one

@horadrimsage @moondrencht Curious if you’ve given vLex a whirl at all? If so I’d love to hear any thoughts you have.

@moondrencht Wilson Let's see how far this tech as come. Twice I've tried the Lexis produce (Protege is most recent iteration) and found it sorely lacking. Pulled from the wrong areas of law on a drafting request when it didn't get stuck.

Today, we're proud to launch Wilson to the world – your very own legal superagent. Think Cursor for legal contracts. To celebrate our launch, we're giving away a month of our Pro plan for free -- comment "Wilson" and we will send you a promo code. No waitlist -- try Wilson today!

@gregisenberg Yo @gregisenberg, any content/strata you recommend for growing with limited time? Helping a friend scale realtytr.ee on nights/weekends. The only 0→1 growth I’ve done was outbound sales, which isn’t a core skill of mine. Looking for more leveraged ways to grow.

it’s 100x harder to go from $0 to $1k MRR than to go from $100k to $1M MRR

@thesamparr @Amit_G_Patel Do you primarily see legacy being created through companies and the people you work with or your children and family accomplishments and wins or a combination of the two?

@J_W_Sinclair @Amit_G_Patel Before I just wanted to survive. Now I want to make sure my reputation or hard work can survive after I'm dead. Also care about reaching full potential vs just getting to a comfortable place like before. i'm more ego driven now.

What’s the difference between a $10m, $100m, and $1b lifestyle? Asked this question in Hampton's Slack community since we have people worth $10m - $2b. A few takeaways from the 50+ replies: $50k – $100k liquid • The first “I feel rich” for many in 20s. • Bills stop hurting. You breathe. • $1M net worth rarely changes anything. In high-cost cities, it’s just “comfortable professional.” Still very income-dependent. $10M liquid - This is the first real unlock. • Safety net feels permanent • You stop looking at the right side of the menu • Business-class by default, 5 hotels when you want • You can cover friends’ flights to make trips happen • Life doesn’t run you anymore. $20M–$25M liquid: • “I can spend $50k/mo forever and still compound.” • Nicer primary home (or rent ultra-nice; fewer ownership headaches) • Staff for convenience (nanny, cleaners) • Family support start to be normal, not “splurge” $50M liquid • Cash flow is thick and hard to fully redeploy. • 2nd homes, extended travel • Serious privacy planning begins • You’re learning trusts, tax vehicles, and who to not trust $100M: • Life becomes frictionless. • Fly private often (some buy; many rent because ownership is work) • Full household team + exec assistants + specialists • Family office(s), capital allocation becomes a job • You choose projects; problems get solved without you Past $100M • personal lifestyle doesn’t change much—scale and privacy do. • Land for privacy buffers • Private gyms/courts/spas at home • You’ll never fly commercial unless you want to $1 billion • Money becomes institutional. • You never see a bill • Global properties, fully private travel • Governments, universities, and CEOs court you • It’s legacy season: foundations, endowments, monuments A few real anecdotes from the thread: • A billionaire bought a pro sports team mid-flight on his jet. His right-hand guy became COO. • A friend group dropped $200k–$300k on a yacht week just to get everyone together. • Multiple members set up dual family offices (JPM + independent) to manage life + investments. The biggest trap everyone warned about: • “Coming into money without accomplishing anything is a curse.” • Lottery-winner energy breaks people. Purpose > purchases. Cash flow > net worth (psychologically). • Even people with $50M–$100M feel “poor” during low-cashflow years. Meaning, even if you have a high net worth -- if your business income goes away even if you don't need it, it feels horrible. Mentally brutal. What actually brings joy at scale: • Buying back time (coaches, chefs, pilots, concierge) • Funding memories (fly the whole crew, pick up every tab) • Being present (one member took a year as a stay-at-home dad - “wouldn’t trade it for anything”) What gets old fast: • More “stuff” to manage • Identity tied to net worth • Chasing bigger dopamine (toys) instead of deeper meaning (health, family, service, community) -- Ok, that's it - that's my ChatGPT summary of all the replies!

@thesamparr @Amit_G_Patel Why did money change that? Is that a common experience from what you’ve seen?

@Amit_G_Patel i'm for sure into legacy, which i didn't give a shit about before

@n0c0de_com @thesamparr @matuniox @ShaanVP @gregisenberg got some stuff. Different style but similar value to MFMs original episodes.

@thesamparr @matuniox @ShaanVP totally get it ... who do you recommend sam for this ^

Let me tell you about the creator tension. On Youtube, My First Million episodes mostly get ~60k-300k views per pod lately. Spotify + iTunes, consistently in the 100k range (haven't looked in forever, but whatever it is, its consistent). This week Robert Greene was on. I LOVED recording it. I learned so much. I wanted to go for another 2 hours. He moved me. But on YouTube, its maybe the worst performing pod in the last 1-3 months. And yet - I've had SO many people text me saying how much they loved listening to the Robert Greene episode. I assume they listened (spotify, itunes), not watched This is the tension. The episode made me very happy. But will make me very little $$$.

@thesamparr @matuniox @ShaanVP That’s fair but you should also expect that your viewership likely decreases as a result. Hearing about all the strats you can employ when you have millions is not always useful or entertaining. Still love the show but it is a little less practical. Still great laughs though.

@matuniox @ShaanVP I think many people want us to discuss $0-$1m. That's great, but that's not always our interest anymore.

@jenny_wen Congrats Jenny!

not me, crying watching the NYSE livestream 😭😭😭

@anothercohen @villi Can you expand? Is this based on their performance today or forward looking? Gemini is objectively worse on every test I’ve run it through for my day to day tasks.

@villi And their stuff is just so good

I'm so, so bullish on Google. Investing all of my money into them. Firmly believe they're going to win the AI race over the next 5 years

@CaydenGinting I’ll be amazed if this works purely because it’s been done multiple times before. If it does work and get any kind of scale it will be a testament to the marketing more then anything technical. Unless there’s more under the hood then previous iterations.

you said you'd stop gooning. texting your ex @ 4am. that you'd go to the gym. introducing tally the habit tracker that charges you 50 cents every time you slip up. and gives it to your friends (or enemies). because you should bet on yourself. i may or may not have dropped part of my mom's death settlement on this video so engage investors — dms are open for now. interest from former myspace ceo / liquid death founder. round's closing next week. this is your window. everyone else — we're down to 15 open slots for ugc creators @ competitive pay. only requirement: can't be chopped. dm me.

@EverettLebherz @BrendanFalk Ah my bad. Best of luck on your hunt.

@J_W_Sinclair @BrendanFalk We do employee benefits

We are pivoting away from doing enterprise AI transformations ("AI-native Palantir"). For now at least. I've shared our key learnings below. I'll share a detailed blog post soon. What's next? We are going to start moving insanely quickly on several other ideas. Stay tuned 😎
