When I started crypto mining… Neighbours laughed: 👉 “Wasting time & money” 👉 “Why engineering?” 👉 “If machines made money, everyone would do it” 👉 “No vision” Back then, I told friends to buy: ✨ ETH under $5 ✨ SOL under $1 ✨ BNB under $4 ✨ BGB under...

This was supposed to be a 5-minute promo for my first international solo exhibition in Dubai. But once the cameras started rolling, Joseph Ruzer saw something more. Every question pulled at another part of the story, moments I hadn’t planned to share, struggles I didn’t think mattered, and the obsession that keeps me chasing light. So we kept filming. What began as a short shoot became Chasing the Light. It is the most personal project I have ever shared. A documentary that dives into the why. Why I risk everything for a shot. Why I keep chasing something just out of reach. And why the journey is always more important than the destination. People see the final image, the exhibition, or the recognition, and they think it is an overnight success. But they never see what it takes. The early mornings, the missed moments, the risks, the failures, and the constant drive to keep going. This film pulls back the curtain on that reality. None of this would exist without Joseph Ruzer and his incredible team. His vision transformed a simple idea into something unforgettable. But it goes beyond that. This film is a piece of everyone who has been part of my journey, friends who filmed me when I had no crew, those who captured photos of me chasing light long before it was a career, and the people who pushed me, supported me, and believed in this vision as much as I did. There are too many people to name, but you know who you are. Thank you. This film is as much yours as it is mine. We premiered it in Dubai at Mondoir Gallery which was sponsored by MoonPay 🟣. And now I'm sharing it with with everyone. This is not just about the landscapes I have captured. It is about the journey that led me there. I hope you all enjoy: Chasing the Light - A Photographer’s Journey.

T-Pain EXPOSES Akon: “He Stopped My Royalties After I Left Convict Music… But It Still Didn’t Break Me” I ain’t never been the type to fold… but some things still gotta be said. Back when I was under Convict Music, I looked at Akon like a big brother. Real talk. The respect was crazy. I moved how he moved, listened when he spoke, and believed we was building something solid together. I gave that man my trust, my sound, and some of the biggest records of that era. Then I left. Started my own. And that’s when the mask slipped. I started seeing the numbers. Realizing he was still eating heavy off music we made together long after I was gone… while my end got quiet. Royalties that was supposed to hit just stopped. No explanation. No conversation. Just silence. Like once I wasn’t under his roof no more, the respect wasn’t mutual. I ain’t gon’ lie… that one stung. Not because of the money (I been made peace with the money), but because of what it showed me about loyalty. But here’s the part they never wanted me to say out loud: That still didn’t stop me. That still didn’t break me. That still didn’t hold me back. I went and built anyway. Kept creating. Kept evolving. Kept winning on my own terms. The same voice they tried to control is the same voice that kept going harder. I had mad love and respect for Akon back then. Now I just got clarity. Sometimes the people who helped put you on… are the same ones who try to keep a piece of you when you walk away. I walked away free. And I’m still free.

Draymond Green says he created a $10,000 rule to teach himself how to budget during his NBA rookie year “I kind of went by this motto that entire year. Once I got to the point where I had $10,000 in my bank account, I said my account can never get under $10,000. Then once I got to $20,000, it can't get under $20,000. I did it in increments of $10,000” “I think every check I got at that point was like $7,600 every two weeks. By the time I paid my rent, which my rookie year was $3,000 and did all of those things, sometimes it would dip a little bit under, and that meant I couldn't spend a dollar the rest of the month” “The issue with that was, if I had $29,000, so if my one check took me to $29,000, I would spend it back down to $20,000. I just couldn't get under $20,000” “I did that because I wanted to understand how to pay bills. I wanted to understand, if I wanted to send my mom some money, how to do all of these things, know where every dollar is going, and teach myself the value of money and how money would truly work” “I made mistakes in doing that, obviously, with my theory and spending $9,000 some months, but it was great for me and gave me a better understanding” “When you come from where we come from, you don't just learn financially. You don't gain financial literacy in a year. Even after that year, I wasn't the most financially literate person, but I had a better understanding, and that was the beginning of me starting to build”

One thing a bad debt can steal from you is your confidence. One pattern I’ve noticed with many people who fail publicly and never recover is that they hide. And I have come to believe that hiding is one of the fastest ways to destroy a great future. Because while you are hiding, opportunities cannot find you. Relationships begin to fade. Your confidence deteriorates. Before long, you become a shadow of yourself. When I found myself in debt, I was deeply ashamed. But I told myself one thing: hiding would not pay the debt. I approached my banks. I was honest with the people I owed. Some understood. Some didn’t. Some dragged me publicly. Some tarnished my name with lies. It hurt, but I refused to disappear. I remember one loan app in particular out of the many ones I borrowed from, Carbon. Every time they called, I picked. They would ask when I intended to pay, and I would tell them the truth. Sometimes I would say, “I don’t have the money today, but this is what I can pay on this date.” And somehow, don’t know how but they won’t call me until the day I had given. I spent well over a year clearing that debt little by little. There was no need to harass my family or friends because I never ran from the conversation. I answered the calls, even though every ringtone sent my heart racing. Some people I owed became angry that I was still posting online, still smiling, still living my life. But I had to remind myself that disappearing would not magically produce the money I owed. If anything, hiding would only cut me off from the very opportunities that could help me repay those debts. Looking back today, I’m grateful I didn’t surrender to shame. Shame tells you to hide. Wisdom tells you to face reality. Growth begins the day you stop running from your problems and start confronting them, however imperfectly. That season changed me. It built resilience I could never have learnt in comfort. Today, there is hardly any challenge I believe I cannot face head-on, because I have learnt that courage is not the absence of fear, courage is refusing to disappear when fear tells you to. #Tadé

A few days ago, my current political mentor told me something profound. He said, “Pauline, as you embark on this journey, there will be people who support you and love you unconditionally. Even when you make mistakes, they will extend grace. But there will also be those who will never like or love you, no matter what you do. In their eyes, you can never be right.” Today, I want to speak about the second group. For a long time, they dismissed me as a “keyboard warrior,” insisting I would never step onto the ground. When I did step onto the ground, the narrative changed. Suddenly, every minor mistake becomes a major narrative. They say I cannot speak. They say I should retreat back to social media. In Kitengela, where the state destroyed the sound system, making it difficult to address the people with an almost dysfunctional sound system, these people have clipped a moment and turned it into a tool for mockery. But here is my message to them: History reminds us of great leaders who has way worse oratory shortcomings, but achieved way more than most of us will in a lifetime. Even Moses in the Bible was one such. If eloquence alone were the measure of leadership, our country would be doing way better than it is under the current leadership. This journey is bigger than clips, critics, or commentary. The horse has already bolted, and there is no going back. I will learn what I need to learn, and grow where I need to grow. But I will not shrink myself to fit into the box where some are trying to force me into. Tupatane ground!

Bill Maher reveals why flying private has become frustrating Bill: "It became, first of all, too many crypto guys with too much money chasing too few jets. I never bought. I didn't want to own one. That's right." "Because then everything is your problem. You have to hire the pilots and keep them on. You have to get a hangar. You have to do the landing, right? I was like, 'No, the maintenance, the whole thing.'" "Yes. Let me just add, this happened a few times. If you're renting it and it doesn't work on the runway, which happened more and more—it's one reason I'm stopping—more and more there was the, 'There's something wrong with the computer.' Like, they will get you another plane." Byron: "Not as pretty. Not as good." Bill: "Or better." Bill: "Or better. I was once halfway to Florida, problem. Flew all the way back to LA and they had a much bigger, faster plane waiting for me. That's the advantage over not having your plane. As most of you people listening know, if there's one thing I tell the young comedians, relate to your audience. Do things they can relate to, for God's sakes." Byron: "Don't go out there and do the first half hour about your private jet." Bill: "But it's true. Too many crypto guys chasing too many jets." Byron: "Yeah." Bill: "Too many, like, the number of times there was, 'Oh, there's a problem,' just increased. I don't know why that is. I don't know if the jets got worse or maybe it was just people who are stoned who are working in this industry. I don't know. But I never had a good feeling even about the private jet, like, is there going to be some problem today?"
