@kobegatsby “money eyes” reminder 💰👀

@_benjamincrane This is the real deal, I call it money eyes. You start seeing so much opportunity once you understand how business works.

I spent an entire year telling people to copy what’s already working and it still rarely happened. Now I realize it’s because people have no clue how to actually identify things that are working.

@johnhickey1970 @ShopifyPlus Congrats on the growth, follow me so I can DM ? May help you with this. (All stores on Shopify Plus etc)

Shopify rep told me yesterday on a Gmeet that we are one of the fastest growing stores he is seeing on Shopify. Our annual growth is at 260% or so. Who cares right? I want them to tell me 5 brands that are growing faster so I can try to study them. Anyone? @ShopifyPlus

@aaronvalue very interesting to read. my grandfather was born in Baghdad and lived there for 30 years before fleeing persecution in 1949 with nothing and starting all over in ny. the rest of his family went to Israel.

This is mind blowing. Arab Iraqis apologizing to Jews for driving them out of Iraq and seeking a reconciliation. I had to shake my head a few times to make sure it was real: wsj.com/articles/iraq-…

@mhdempsey @creatureNFT @dannycoleee read this book a bunch of years ago, and re-read it last year. talks about how the "art world became the art market" in short period of time. helped a lot of what is happening rn with NFTs click for me. amazon.com/Sold-Andy-Warh…

@mhdempsey you may enjoy the @creatureNFT project from the talented + visionary @dannycoleee (disclosure: am invested)

I've had...a lot of conversations about NFTs with non-crypto native investors over the past few months. Most smart people get most aspects of the bull cases. The one thing many miss is the cash flow + targeting nature of an asset like a Punk (or n or loot etc.)

@AKGrenier @MasterClass Huge congrats Adam !! They’re lucky to have you 😀🍾🚀

1/ I’m thrilled to share I’ve joined @MasterClass as VP of Marketing to oversee all performance, lifecycle, and social. Anyone that knows me can spot quickly spot the unique match MC is for me. For those that don't, here's a slice of how MasterClass impacted my last year👇🧵

@kobegatsby "I love the game. I love the hustle." 😤

There's NOTHING like hitting your stride and everything is going the way you want it to. And when it doesn't, you still don't take no for answer. Ride that momentum as long as you can and push, hard.

@Emmonspired *Sales, just like Support except with less frustration and greater earning potential (uncapped). *either Tech Sales or High-Ticket Sales.

@goodalexander @stanloh brilliant .

@stanloh I’ve been doing affiliate arbitrage since 2014 when I began trading advertising stocks (FB, googl etc). I ran a number of “Best 10 flashlight” type websites with Amazon links. The clear story was that Amazon could print $ so when they launched an ad platform I started a company.

@yrechtman Read "Geneen" - an inside look at how Harold Geneen used M&A to transform ITT from $800M/revenue to $38B/revenue, over 20 years. amazon.com/Geneen-Robert-…

What's the definitive books/profile on either Barry Diller/IAC or John Malone/Liberty? Like I want to read a monograph of an M&A gawd (or even a history of M&A if such a book exists)
