Empathy forms the foundation for welfare state and its liberal social welfare programmes. 3/3

The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. 2/3

Of all tyrannies a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. 1/3

@JayFreaKay Now explain that in corporate lingo.

Jana nilimwaura hadi nikapata muscle pull kwa tumbo bana heh never again 😭

@1nelima @_GreatnessTupu @xysist time to launch manifesto.

I've been on X long enough to learn that the unhinged tweeps are actually serious chaps irl

@d3noz_ That’s a crater.

That pothole on riverside drive just after the turn is no longer a pothole. An Alto can disappear in there.

@mtucreativity @EACinvestor I agree 💯 %. That’s the best strategy. Let’s compare notes over a 🥃 soon, kaka.

@BrianYuleWako @EACinvestor Wrong move! Buy and watch closely tracking will make you hesitate and regret not going in early

Hey @mtucreativity , hope you were able to buy a sizable chunk or made this atleast ~5-10% of your portfolio. I capped mine at ~ 7.5% wishing I had done atleast 10%.

@Alfayaz11 @Hilarykip You had me at the first half, Alf. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

Good people, this may shock you, but lately I have been thinking… and I have come to the conclusion that our Woman Rep is nothing short of brilliant. Credit where it is due. Apart from expertly doubling as a co-spokesperson, she appears to have sparked quite the revolution of her own, mentoring a whole new generation of bimbo and blonde graduates over her tenure. That kind of legacy surely cannot go unnoticed. We really must give it up for Bimbo1 PassHarris. Trailblazer. Mentor. Nation builder. PassHarris hoiyee!!!

I'm going to borrow this image because I think it looks spectacular Just so you can see my position in this photonics sector: Layer 1 - $IQE Layer 2 - $SIVE Layer 3 - $AAOI Layer 4 - $LPKF Layer 5 - $AEHR I don't hold this last one anymore, but I used to I'm looking forward to a good entry price to have all layers covered again with my winning horse out of all of them

This is what winning the league feels like, it has to be real, it has to be unique. They were all of us fr🤍❤️

@Kalasinga_ Antelope in Chief?

I have a joke about Arsenal and a Prime Minister.

@Tokyo_Trev @wgkantai Rushing to post about @Arsenal finally winning the @premierleague on @LinkedIn

What do we do if Bournemouth wins? Do we sleep? Do we run to the streets? Arsenal fans, what’s the plan of action?

@Alfayaz11 @omondi_obiero @MuriraKinoti @KURAroads This is stack in the middle of JKIA. The first sight that visitors meet when they land in Singapoor.

My brother @MuriraKinoti and @KURAroads have you not informed Waziri? Ama ni cake anataka?

The spreadsheet math on this is brutal. She left roughly $54 million on the table. Yet she probably just made the best financial decision of her life. $1M in an S&P 500 index fund at age 20 compounds to approximately $58M in inflation-adjusted terms by age 80. The historical real return is about 7% annually over 97 years of data. Her annuity pays $52,000 a year. Over 60 years that totals $3.1M. The gap is 18x. Every finance account in these replies will tell you she's wrong. The compounding math is clear. Take the lump sum, put it in VOO, don't touch it for 60 years. The Certified Financial Planner Board says roughly a third of lottery winners declare bankruptcy within five years. Illinois court records show 28% of winners who won $50K or more went bankrupt in the same window. The average winner spends 60% of their winnings on family and friends in the first two years. She's 20. Peak impulsivity, minimal financial literacy, and every person she's ever met just found out she has a million dollars in her checking account. The $1M doesn't go into a Vanguard account. It goes into the most socially pressured spending environment a human being can occupy. $1,000 a week is a permanent $52K salary, tax-free in Canada, that arrives whether she makes good decisions or catastrophic ones. Can't be drained by a partner. Can't be lost to a scam. Can't be "invested" in a cousin's restaurant. Shows up every Friday for the rest of her life. The spreadsheet says lump sum by 18x. The data on what actually happens to people who receive $1M at 20 says she just bought the most expensive insurance policy in lottery history, and it was worth every dollar she gave up.

@Lovandfear “The Power of Unwavering Focus” - @DandapaniLLC

What’s on your current reading list? Suggest me something worth reading.

You land in #Singapoor and the first thing you meet is a crater sized pothole stack in the middle of the airport. @KenyaAirports

AI Thematic plays to focus on if you want to make money in the stock market 1. Memory — Micron, SK Hynix, Samsung — HBM demand is insatiable as AI training scales 2. Storage — Western Digital, Seagate — inference at scale needs fast, high-density storage 3. Photonics/Optics — Applied Optoelectronics, Lumentum, Coherent, Corning — copper is hitting its limits; fiber optics is the new bottleneck in AI data centers 4. CPUs/Silicon — AMD, Intel, ARM, Qualcomm — the chip arms race isn't slowing down 5. NeoClouds — Nebius, CoreWeave, IREN — GPU clouds that hyperscalers can't build fast enough 6. Cooling — Comfort Systems, Modine — dense GPU racks generate enormous heat 7. Energy/Power — Caterpillar, GE Vernova — AI data centers are power-hungry; backup generation and grid buildout are critical

@QuietReckon @readswithravi Very good analogy at how we approach life, we live so hard that we forget to live.

@readswithravi The Snow Leopard by Peter Mattheissen. On the surface, it’s the story of a trek into the Himalayas to sight a snow leopard and find an elusive monk. Looking beneath the surface, it’s a metaphor for life. We’re all looking at the summit while we walk past the things that matter

What’s a book that you will never stop recommending?

@readswithravi The Richest Man in Babylon - George Samuel Clason for any young person who’s just starting life after college.
