It’s no secret…I’m old.
Forget the ear hair and nose hair and prostate and wrinkles and age spots and receding hairline and gross toes, I can’t see well. I have never seen well. I had a floating, weak eye when I was a kid. Ladies (girls) loved it. After I had an operation to stop the floating, my optometrist had me wear a patch on my strong eye which he believed might strengthen my weak eye. No wonder I was single until 30.
Today, I don’t mind not seeing well at a distance but now I can’t read my iPhone too good.
So I caved. I bought some Foster Grants.
Lo and behold…I look like Cathie Wood now (Cathie is posing here with Yoni Assia the founder of Etoro):
Onwards…
I wake up every morning at 5 am to write this blog.
I have my best shot at writing clearly is with blurry sleepy vision and a coffee and not a million thoughts in my head.
I sit down at my Mac Desktop and bang out a post.
One problem I have the last few years writing daily is ‘who am I writing for?’ Should I be silly or write updates for my LP’s so they know what’s going on with portfolio companies or about the markets so I can help think things through and form strategies….
I never look at my metrics because that is not why I write here. I have decided to change that because I want to try and grow my audience. I do not think it will change how I write but we hired someone at Social Leverage to help organize and grow the audience here and on my videos and podcasts while improving the content for our limited partners.
Finally today…
People in this blog community have been asking for more information about NFT’s.
I liked this article – ‘What You Could Be Missing About The NFT Crypto Boom‘. From the art angle this really rang true:
So here we are, but instead of 1890 when Modern Art began, it’s 2021 when NFT art is beginning. Are you going to go score yourself an investment? Or do you prefer to sit back and watch until you see who the most valuable artists are. Either way, it’s an exciting time for this digital revolution going on in our lifetime.
The Bankless team is writing a lot about them and you can subscribe here.
Packy has a great essay that explains NFT’s here.
Have a great Friday.
