I remember being a kid and being mesmerized by how much he was going to teach me and how I could be rich and successful.
I then tried to buy one of his courses, but couldn’t find my debit card so I called I called my dad if he could help me and I’d pay him back.
We then had a very valuable conversation about people like Tai Lopez. I think about that convo very often.

Who is investing their money with Tai Lopez?
Charles Floate 📈@Charles_SEO
The SEC just filed a lawsuit against Tai Lopez and Alex Becker's business partner, Alex Mehr, who calls himself Dr. Alex Mehr, PHD. The US government are claiming they raised over $112,000,000, never made any profits and ran a "PONZI-like" scheme. As well as spending $16M+ on personal expenses like private jet trips, marketing and luxury items.

How much do you think this haircut cost?
Before you guess, some context: this is NOT a prank. I went to a nice barber in Seattle, and no, she did not use a weed whacker.
My instructions were "Tight fade blended in at the top."
The cost of this haircut was $70 PLUS TIP (I didn't know the extent of how bad it was until I got home, so I gave her a tip). The whole haircut took less than 30 minutes.
If this woman can charge almost $200 an hour for this monstrosity, you can probably rethink how much you are charging your clients.

**Big Announcement** (and on my birthday too)🎉
I'm launching a startup 🚀
Over the last 10 years, I’ve developed a very unique set of skills: helping accountants be advisors. Some of my first responsibilities at Divvy/Bill.com were working with accountants.
It turns out those unique skills are useless if you’re not working with accountants 😅 So I am coming back. Excited to announce my new company, Ping Assistant!
My co-founder @Chad and I have been working on this for a while, and from all our conversations with accountants, we’ve developed our motto: Be an accountant, not a secretary.
Ping is built for accountants working with clients (CAS, tax, or in any advisory role) who need more time back in their lives. We are saving accountants 5+ hours a week by using AI to cut out admin work. With the time you save, you can work with more clients or go to bed earlier.
Here’s what I know about accountants:
1️⃣Scaling years of experience is near impossible.
Some people think AI can replace accountants… Those people also think accountants only fill out tax returns 🤪
Our AI assistant is built to make accountants superhuman. Its sole job is to take admin work off accountants' plates so they can focus on being an advisor and the work they are excited about.
2️⃣Burnout is real 😰
Turns out, when you’re working like a dog and doing menial tasks, it’s easy to burn out.
Ping takes the admin work of client meetings so accountants can focus on doing what they actually want to do:
Help the client.
3️⃣ Client relationship context is vital
Whether you’re onboarding new team members or picking up the slack when someone leaves, Ping captures all the context of the client relationship and makes it easy for team members to have client information at their fingertips.
⬇⬇⬇
Ping is built for accountants who do advisory work. If your clients come to you for advice, let us take your admin work off your plate, so you can do more!

I’m stepping down as President of Tandem Ventures
It’s been a wild 3.5 years.
Some highlights:
- Built a venture firm from scratch 🧑🍳
- Raising $100m+ 💯
- Made 31 investments and counting 💸
- Did I mention we built a venture firm FROM SCRATCH?! 🏗️
It was on my wedding day that Tandem became official. @mckaydunn called @Alexwbean while we were taking family pictures to say he was all in. That was on a Friday, and we went to work on Monday! 😤
Starting something from zero is hard, but between Mckay’s expertise as an investor and Alex’s founder cachet, the wheels started turning. My job was to make sure the wheels stayed on the bus.
By some stroke of luck, the stars aligned and @jimmerfredette Fredette joined Tandem to make us the best 3v3 basketball venture firm in Utah 😉But beyond balling out, Jimmer has been able to open doors never thought imaginable for both Tandem and the companies we invested in. It’s insane.
I'm forever grateful Alex pulled me in to start Tandem. I’m also so thankful Mckay took me under his wing and taught me the ways of the VC. It’s been so fun building an amazing firm like Tandem.
Working with people you enjoy being with is such a blessing.
Choosing to leave Tandem has been an incredibly difficult decision 🥺 but I’m really excited about some upcoming opportunities.
More to come on what is next… 👀 👀
