POV: Future you in your late-40s waking up to Paradise instead of commuting to work on a Tuesday because you lived below your means and invested >20% of your income into index funds for decades.

I was moved at church today. Something stirred inside me. Hope for the future. Nearly every man wearing a jacket. Blazers, sport coats, and suits. Cotton, linen, and wool. Checks and solids. Imagine if we dressed this way every Sunday. Every day?! A better world.

Tip: Don’t tell people on Ozempic that if they ate the same amount of food without the Ozempic, they'd lose the same amount of weight. They get very angry.

@Hybridathlete you should write a post about properly interpreting the data

If you feel a huge mental relief after stopping using wearables, the problem likely wasn't the wearable. The problem is that you didn't understand how to interpret the data properly and use it with other markers like subjective feeling and performance metrics.
Dan Go@CoachDanGo

For the past 6 months I've gotten away from using an Apple watch, Oura, Whoop, and any other type of wearable. I've noticed no changes in my physical health but a positive change in my mental health as I've stopped using a piece of tech to tell me how I should feel.

Experimenting a bit with this look. First, working on spring/summer layering. I think this is a cheat code for stylish men. Opted for a navy tshirt instead of white. Dresses up the look. Better contrast with the pants too. Pants are Buck Mason full saddle parachute poplin. They wrinkle super easily so I embraced the look and didn’t iron them. I think it adds a bit of nonchalance or sprezzatura. Shirt is a chambray button down from Ralph lauren. Slightly oversized which is perfect for this look. Tucking the t-shirt is key to making it work with the unbuttoned shirt. Tucked t-shirts also add refinement and pair nicely with higher waisted pants. In future looks I’m going to experiment with the shirt. Lightweight overshirts or pearl snaps would be nice. Possibly even a short sleeve button up on warmer days. What do you think?

@wwornwwell too true. I know too many people that can’t turn it off. All downtime should be spent working. You have to be able to change gears. Work hard at times and loaf around at others. Life should be enjoyed. Work is a means to an end.

The notion of gracefully entering into slow-paced retirement after living a work-obsessed existence for decades is illusory. Your incremental mindset and actions must match your ambition to have any ability to recalibrate. This is your sign to go drink on a patio this afternoon.

Why on God's green earth would you allow the New York Times to do a profile on you bragging about your fat margins if you have nothing proprietary, no moat... zero way of stopping copy cats? Something's not adding up!
Jon Oringer@jonoringer

The NYT just profiled a $1.8B revenue company with 2 employees. Medvi is a telehealth GLP-1 provider built by Matthew Gallagher, 41, from his house in LA. He launched in September 2024 with $20,000. Here are the numbers: Month 1: 300 customers Month 2: 1,300 customers 2025 full year: $401M revenue, 250,000 customers 2026 run rate: $1.8B Net margin: 16.2% ($65M profit) Total employees: 2 (him and his brother) Outside funding: $0 How it works: Medvi is a front end. Two platforms — CareValidate and OpenLoop Health — handle doctors, prescriptions, pharmacies, shipping, and compliance. Gallagher handles brand, website, ads, checkout, and customer service. All built with AI. His stack: ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok for code. Midjourney and Runway for ad creative. ElevenLabs for voice. Custom AI agents to connect systems. AI chatbot for customer service (which initially hallucinated fake prices he had to honor). For comparison: Hims & Hers did $2.4B revenue last year with 2,442 employees and 5.5% net margins. Gallagher is running 3x the margin with a fraction of a percent of the headcount. Back into the unit economics: ~$336M in total costs, probably $160-200M to the telehealth platforms, leaving $130-170M mostly in marketing. Against 250,000 customers, that's a $500-700 CAC. High, but it works because his overhead is virtually zero and LTV at ~$200/month holds up. He's expanding fast. Men's health launched in February — 50K customers in month one. Meal delivery went live last month. Women's health, hair growth, supplements, and skincare are next. The vulnerability: zero moat. No proprietary tech, no doctor network, no pharmacy infrastructure. CareValidate or OpenLoop could raise fees or launch competing brands. Anyone could replicate this model in weeks. Right now, the margins are enormous for anyone who moves fast enough. The question is how long that window stays open. nytimes.com/2026/04/02/tec…

I'm an early adopter of Oura. Been wearing it for 6 years. Recently I've stopped checking the app daily. I haven't fully ditched the ring... yet. Here's why 👇 I realized that I was allowing my sleep and readiness scores to affect my mood / motivation. This became glaringly apparent when my wife and I welcomed our first child last year. Despite our best efforts to continue focusing on sleep and recovery, my scores immediately dropped 5-10 points on average. Some days were much worse. Still I never skipped a workout. Even in the early days of parenthood I would get up and exercise. But I realized that the lower scores were affecting my mood and motivation. I would take it easier on a lift or run just because my readiness was 78 instead of 90. Am I really that soft? No fucking way. So, I stopped checking the Oura app first thing in the morning. I just got up and hit my workout as prescribed. Then later in the day I would check the app. Some days I wouldn't. I noticed that I had some absolutely killer workouts on mediocre readiness scores. Other days I assumed I had a bad readiness score only to see a number in the upper 80s. I stopped letting my effort be dictated by an app or my feelings. I just did it.

While you hyperventilate over your "readiness" or "recovery" score and how many hours of REM sleep you got the night before you have guys like JJ Spaun just showing up and getting it done. 👇 Parents everywhere know the deal. "Optimization" is a fool's errand. Excerpt taken from Growth Equation: thegrowtheq.com/newsletters/
