So I had this crazy idea... 🤩 I built... an interactive grid where every $1k square represents my progress towards my $1m goal. And I thought - what if cool companies could have their spot on there while I build and share everything in public? 🤔 It's like becoming part of the story that thousands of people check weekly to see how I'm doing. Plus, I'll shout you out monthly because, honestly, I'm grateful for anyone crazy enough to believe in this journey with me! 😄 Starting from $1k/month, who wants to do something fun and different? 🚀 Find more details at: Or DM me if you have any questions.show more

I'm laying in my tent reflecting on my life... right now..and I have to say, some would say my life situation of being homeless is a sad thing .. because you see people out there who are addicts and in bad situations .. but mine isn't anything like that. Although I havent had a home in 10 years, I see and feel the blessing. I'm so free in life to live how I want in life. Sure while sometimes I desire a bed to come home too.. I get to have a bed anywhere in life I want. I'm so free to live and explore as I please with nothing to tie me down. If I could share any piece of advice, it is simple do not trade your freedom of life for the chains of society and what they deem how YOU should live. I promise in this day and age you can be so free and make money without anyone there to tell you when to clock in, when to eat lunch, when you can use the bathroom, none of that! I hope you all find the bliss I feel in life someday.show more

Today, I graduated from Stanford with my masters in... law, with a focus in law, science, and technology. I expended considerable time exploring how to add value to emerging companies by advising them throughout their lifecycles, specifically on raising venture capital and licensing intellectual properties and technologies. I hope to spend the foreseeable future deepening my expertise in these areas. For the Stanford journey, I must start with gratitude. First, I am grateful for my parents, siblings and family who supported me through everything. I am grateful for my former employers who invested heavily in my growth, played a substantial part in Stanford happening, and in whom I found another family. I am especially grateful for my friends (including those I made at Stanford) who have overwhelmed me with love and support that I do not think I deserve. I am grateful for my colleagues, with whom I have shared this journey, and who have blessed me with their knowledge and experiences. I am grateful for all my mentors and professional connections whose benevolence towards me have never run dry. I am grateful for my professors and the Stanford academic faculty who have shared their knowledge with me and have challenged me intellectually, and finally, I am grateful to God, for the invisible hand in how my life has played out over the past year. At the ceremony, my friend Ana Julia – who spoke on behalf of the class – said we already made it before we arrived for this program. That is true, because the program is a gathering of highly exceptional people from different parts of the world, and with different experiences. Having been privileged to spend the last one year with these people, I will go on from here knowing that I mean something. I am something. And I will devote my time to leading with my humanity and advocating for positive change in the world. I charge you to do the same.show more

Back when I had nothing… I was a nobody... to most people. TBH, my parents didn't even see me getting to where I am today. It's just the truth, the chips were stacked for my sister. Not me. But it's just not the reality today. However, there was ONE person in my life that didn’t see me that way. My significant other saw something in me before a lot of things. Before all my wins. Before the $. Before any proof. And honestly… that means a lot to me, if not the most of all. I’ve always been wired a little different. I’m a mix of finance, engineering, and tech, with a sprinkle of obsession. I learned and studied from the best. Warren Buffett for how to invest. Elon Musk for work ethic and where the future is going. And once I saw it… I went all in. Bc when you truly understand what you own… you don’t need 20 bets. What you really need is conviction and just a few bets. That’s how I approached everything in my life. All the way from Apple… to Tesla… to 𝕏… to xAI… and now SpaceX. I believe I have an eye for spotting the best entrepreneurs and companies early, before it becomes obvious to everyone. And when I see it, I back it 100%. That’s just who I am. I don’t need a big circle. I’ve already got my day ones. I don’t need approval. I grew up my whole life with doubt and hate, so what’s one more? At this point, the levels are just too different. And yeah… it's true, it actually gets harder to make new friends when you’re moving like this. So I stay loyal to the ones who were there when I had nothing. I made it with Apple - youngest in, youngest out. Then I made it with Tesla… while people were laughing, doubting, calling me crazy, telling me I was going to go bankrupt with Elon. Fast forward to today, now I'm heading into something even bigger. If the story plays out the way it’s shaping up… SpaceX could have the largest IPO in history this year. The company is talking about raising over $75B… at a $1.75-$2 trillion valuation. For context… the biggest IPO ever - Saudi Aramco - raised about $29B. This would be more than double that. Let that sink in deep. To me this is more than just an investment. This is owning a piece of the future of space, energy, AI... extending the light of consciousness forward in case something happens to Earth. People can call me crazy. People can call me cocky. Arrogant. But the people that actually know me know the truth - I’m just real AF. I say what I believe, and I stand on it. And I genuinely don’t care what people think. I have two middle fingers always held high for those kind of people. That’s probably why I’ve been able to win the way I have. My significant other tells me to slow down sometimes. And I get it. But for me… What’s the point of life if you play it safe? If you see an opportunity that can change everything… and you just sit back? That’s not me. I’d rather go all in on something I believe in… live with intensity… take the hits… and actually feel alive and live life with fulfillment. Laugh if you want, doubt if you want. Some play it safe, a few go all in. You can call it risky. You can call it stupid. You can call it crazy. I call it living. Bc at the end of the day, I'd rather go all in on something I believe in and fail... than spend my life wondering "what if."show more

We got to 100k on Youtube, thank you ;;... its been quite a journey so far, its had loads of ups, quite a lot of downs and I definitely wouldn't be here without you all supporting me ;; I feel like I've grown a lot mentally and learned so so much, thinking back to when I started as Elia I was so so scared, so anxious, so worried and doubted myself from all the times where people have tried to bring me down, being told I don't have a cute enough voice for vtubing, that I have no talent, that I'm annoying, I'm hated and so so much more but I get through it because of you guys that do believe in me, do support me despite my flaws and it genuinely means the world to me, I may not be the best but I'll keep trying my best and I'll keep growing as a person to be better and kinder and more thoughtful and at the very least not be a bother ;; I have lots lots lots more in the works and even bigger things coming so I hope you can continue to support me on this journey if that's okey, I have a very very simple goal as a VTuber - I just want to make people happy Daisuki dayo 💛show more

one year has officially passed since SU!! when i... got accepted, i was an overwatch streamer that had no idea how to break out of my niche. it felt like if i wasn’t playing a specific game no one cared what i was doing. now i get to do anything and take yall along with me 🥹 SU introduced me to such a broad audience, new collaborators, and new friends. it’s so strange to think that SU was the catalyst for having a friend convince me to move to LA LOL it’s crazy that i get to work alongside some of my favorite creators now. it’s insane that i get to put together projects that people want to see and be part of. i’m so grateful to have mentors behind the scenes that push me to thrive in this wild world of content. thank you to everyone that’s supported me in my streams, on my socials, and even if you just say hi to me in another chat. i appreciate yall more than you know 🤍 even if you don’t see me often now, you will soon. always going bigger and better.show more

Perrie admits she’s “frustrated” by how Jesy Nelson has... portrayed the breakdown of her relationship with Little Mix, adding that she feels the group consistently tried supporting Jesy at the cost of their own mental health, and that accountability should be taken on all sides: “Sometimes you just won’t win with people. And what annoys me the most… I have to be careful how I say this because I don’t want to seem like a bitch… But what upsets me the most when situations like this happen is when the other person doesn’t take any accountability. That boils my blood. I’m not blaming everything on you [Jesy]. I’m not saying, ‘She’s this fucking monster and everything was her fault’ and blah blah blah. But take some accountability for your actions and realise you were difficult. You did have difficult moments. Granted, there were reasons for those moments... but you can only pick somebody up so many fucking times before you start losing track of your own sanity. You want to be there for that person, but if they can’t accept the help and they can’t accept the love you’re trying to show, how do you win? You can’t. I hate that. I don’t like putting the blame on people. Don’t put the blame on me and make me out to be something that I’m not. Yes, I’m not perfect. I might not have been there enough, or I could have done better I suppose… but I thought what I was doing was enough. I thought I’d tried everything. So to then sit there in further interviews and discuss it publicly and be like, ‘I wasn’t supported’… You were, though. You were. So just take some accountability and I’ll feel better about it. I’d say [I’m] more frustrated than angry, because I don’t like being painted into a person that I’m not. Because I’m an open book, I have to be real. It exhausts me when I see people that I know inside and out not being genuine. It frustrates me.”show more

Eight years ago today, my debut single “Neverland” was... released. Even though there were many things I wish I had done better, so many of you showed this song so much love, and thanks to that, I was able to meet all of you and stand where I am today. Because of that, this song feels like my own child to me, and it holds a very special place in my heart. I would like to sincerely thank everyone who worked with me on “Neverland,” and I also want to apologize to my fans from the bottom of my heart for not always being able to show you enough love and active promotions. Over the past eight years, I have been searching for myself and truly living my life, gaining so many different experiences along the way. With all of that as my foundation, my goal this year is to come back to you as a more mature artist with better music. In this music industry where everything feels oversaturated and viral moments seem to be everything, I often wonder what the right path is. But rather than talking about the world, I believe that looking honestly at myself and telling sincere stories will be meaningful work in itself. I will do my best to return to you with good songs and stay by your side again. Thank you so much to all the fans who have always given me more love than I deserve. I hope you won’t forget me, and that you’ll wait for me just a little longer. love u harling #holland #neverlandshow more

Every day for the past 26 years I'm grateful... I didn't listen to my doctor who wanted me to take a statin for my high LDL. At 68 I can work with my personal trainer and box for an hour. I wonder if I'd have the strength to do so if I had taken that statin and suffered the muscle atrophy, brain fog and diabetes that could've developed from the medication, with virtually no benefit for my heart.show more

I received several messages from people quite annoyed with... me because I hadn't replied to their comments. It's certainly not out of contempt that I don't reply; it's for a purely practical reason: TIME. Posting on X isn't my job (I'd starve to death), creating content isn't my job (I do it out of passion). I also have a life in which I have to manage a small family business, and I have a small family (more like a large family) that is my source of energy.🥰 I'm sorry I can't respond as often as I'd like. Please don't mistake this for pride or arrogance on my part; I simply need 48-hour days to get everything done. I already barely sleep, and sometimes my body reminds me of the harsh reality that we have our limits. I've written this many times, but everything happening here is a waking dream. Thank you for being here. Please be assured that I'm not an artist, but someone who works incredibly hard. If I can do it, anyone can. I love learning new things and pushing the boundaries even further. As long as I can learn something new with AI, I'll be here.show more

I just dropped a post on my IG that... literally broke the app (I have so many DMs coming in I can't even log in lol) Ive been RINSING an undercapitalised style of clips I'm calling "AI Text Stories" which I have a feeling is going to be the next HUGE niche. And on top of that I gave away insider access to my top niches that are crushing it for my pages right now. I posted a couple clips in this niche, and it made me over $22,000 in automated payouts…. TikTok is paying out thousands of dollars to people like me who know how to leverage the creator program. If you want access to this info for FREE. LIke, RT, comment "NICHE" and I'll send it to youshow more

It pains me to know that the belief is... that a therapist role is to "validate". I do not validate. If you are with me in a clinical setting and what you're saying doesn't make any damn sense, I'm going to have you walk me through it. What I've discovered is that a lot of the dysfunction people have is that they've never articulated their beliefs and so have no idea how absurd they are. Simply going through the exercise of having to explain yourself can be deeply rewarding. It's something we call "accountability". You literally account for yourself. Sure, I've had some female clients chimp out and flee never to be seen again at their first contact with a mirror. I've had many others weep openly that actually being held psychologically. One I will never get out of my mind was a wonderful 30-something year old woman who cried and said, "I have been in therapy for 7 years. Why has nobody ever challenged me and help me see that I'm the one causing all this shit?" That's an important question. And it's crucial that if you see a therapist, you don't see a charlatan. You can tell the good ones by their headgear.show more

This is only part of what happened to me... and my experience. I do my activism work because I don't want this to happen to anyone else. I know what it's like to have you and your family put at risk. My own experiences have led me to believe there are serious problems with policing and the justice system that need to be addressed. The conviction arising from this incident was for criminal damage. I also have a separate matter due to be heard in the Crown Court in 2028. (4 years later) No family should have to live in fear. That's why I will continue to speak out and campaign for equal treatment under the law for everyoneshow more

Thank you so much everyone for the wonderful birthday... and outfit debut today! 💜 I had so much fun showing off this amazing fit and indulging in the chaotic collab that followed. You all mean the world to me, and without all of you, I probably wouldn't be here. This year has been crazy for me. It's wild how much my life and mental health have changed since I started streaming, not just thanks to the growth and support of my community, but also all the friends I have made along the way. From the bottom of my heart, thank you all! Every single one of you that have been a part of this new life of mine; giving me something to look forward to every single day. This is only the beginning, I promise! 💜show more

#JISOO sends sweet message to Latin American fans: “I... know that many Latin American fans have shown me a lot of love and support, and if I had the opportunity, I would love to be there in person and greet all the fans, either as an actress or for my music. I'm very grateful. Thank you for always supporting me. I love you!”show more

Today I’ve been doing a lot of thinking, and... this is from my heart. Thank you Dad for being a wonderful father. Thank you Mom for being truly the best mother! I love you Jessica. It was a blast growing up with you. I wish I could see you all more. Thank you to all my family; aunts and uncles on my father’s side and my mother’s side. Thank you to Adalis for the 17 best years of my life. Thank you Camila for making life exponentially more enjoyable. Thank you to all the pastors who opened their platforms to me at 19,20,21,22. Guys that probably think I forgot about them like Dr. Samuel Bombara, Doug Sayers, and David Sanville. Thank you for helping me get started. Thank you to every pastor who opened their church to me to preach in the last 21 years. I’m filled with gratitude for your kindness. Thank you to Dr. Rodney Howard Browne. My life took an upward turn when I met you. You have been a true, caring friend and mentor. Thank you to our Revival Today family. You’ve never wavered in working to reach the lost. Thank you to our Revival Today Church family in Pittsburgh and now Fort Worth. You hold a dear place in my heart! Thank you to everyone who threatened to kill me for not actually killing me. We all have bad days. But mostly, I want to thank whoever is reading this. You have likely baked me something, encouraged me, or shown me kindness in some way. I hope you know how much I appreciate you. You send me ice cream. You send things you’ve made that express your love, and many times there’s no name attached, so I have no way to thank you. So thank you. You warm my heart. Thanks for caring about me and what I do. Thanks for treating me like your own brother or son. At the risk of sounding creepy, I wish I could hug you today. In 43 years I’ve had very few negative encounters with anyone. People have been so nice to me for no reason. Thank you. But most of all, I don’t know if you read Instagram or not, but thank you Jesus. You saved me. You called me. And then you took me all over the world. I have had so much fun telling people about you and your Word. You’ve kept me extremely healthy and so full of joy. Thank you for 43 years of life. I owe you everything.show more
