Ursula von der Leyen: We have one ultimate goal in this summit and that is peace for Ukraine, peace with strength, and for that Ukraine needs to have a secure funding for the next two years. I have made two proposed options on the table for this funding. One is funding through the EU budget, borrowing against the budget, and the second possibility is the reparations. So today we will have the discussions about which one or who to use. There will be intensive discussions. For me the most important part is that at the end of the day we have secured the funding for the next two years.

Hospice nurses say there is a quiet moment that happens in the minutes before someone dies, and most families sitting right there in the room do not recognize it until it has already passed. It is not dramatic, it is not loud, and it looks almost like nothing at all if you do not know what you are seeing or what to look for. Nurses who have sat with hundreds of patients at the end of life describe it as one of the most profound and tender things they witness in their entire careers. The hardest part is that most families only find out what that moment was after the fact, during grief, when it is too late to go back and be fully present for it. You deserve to know what to look for before you are sitting in that room, not after you have already left it. Share this with anyone who has a loved one in hospice care or who is walking alongside someone in their final days.

California Isn’t Safe Anymore "I have friends that are like, hey, I don't go to dinner and wear a watch." I have buddies that are like, I don't valet my car at the restaurant anymore because if you're sitting at the restaurant for two hours, they basically go and park your car, pull up your GPS, find out where your home is, send two guys over there, ransack your place while you're at dinner." And what happens when and if they get caught? "Miami, if you get caught, you're going to jail." "In LA, if you get caught, you're going to be released right away, if they even catch you."

Alex Karp, Palantir: “At a certain level of accomplishment, you’re in an artistic space where it’s very hard to explain why you have your insights.” "There’s one country in the world where you get rewarded for that.. in America, if you deliver, you can be you.” “This is a maximal freedom culture… & that self-expression—because it’s not playbook—creates an environment that is exceedingly hard to compete with & will piss off all the right people.” . . . "I think in the end, to do something important—whether it’s me, or @elianoayounes, or look at all these people here—these are among the best and most talented people in the world. At a certain level of accomplishment, you’re in an artistic space where it’s very hard to explain why you have your insights, and it goes way beyond experiences that have of course also influenced them. But I just have artistic impulses, and they shape my life, and I’ve allowed myself—or I’ve been forced to allow myself—the freedom to live that way. And there’s one country in the world where you get rewarded for that, because in America, if you deliver, you can be you. You’re your own boss, right? You decide who you want to talk to, you decide who you don’t want to talk to. You have ideas of things you’d like to advance on. And I think one of the biggest variables in my life is simply that I live in a culture where if you deliver—in this case economically—and by the way, at 18, for most investors, we were failing for at least 15 years. Many would say 18 years. Honestly, some would say until two years ago. And still, this is a culture where the financials are going to show up. That’s only possible in this culture. I guess maybe because I lived abroad so long, it’s easier for me to accept and rely on that. I think sometimes people who’ve lived here their whole life don’t always exactly understand that this is a maximal freedom culture. It’s the only culture like this in the world, and it allows you to self-express. And if you self-express, that self-expression—because it’s not playbook—creates an environment that is exceedingly hard to compete with and will piss off all the right people."

This woman and her friend were at the bar where they met some guy who wouldn’t take no for an answer. They casually left and immediately went back to their hotel room. The guy ended up knocking on their hotel room later that night, they have no idea how this happened. They are suspecting the hotel receptionist may have told them what room number they were in. They aren’t trying to call anyone because at this point they are trying to be silent, what’s the best they can do now?

"Where Is the Youth?" Lasizwe Challenges all CEO’s at the FNB Private (Wealth) Event At FNB’s Private Wealth Series, entrepreneur and media personality Lasizwe Dambuza challenged a room of CEOs, executives and private sector leaders with one question: “Where are the youth in this room?” During a discussion on South Africa’s economic future, Lasizwe questioned what the private sector is doing to intentionally empower the next generation not only through employment, but by investing in the media space, where culture is shaped, ideas are shared and millions of young South Africans are influenced every day. “If we’re serious about building South Africa’s future, why aren’t young people in these rooms? And what is the private sector doing to strengthen the media ecosystem that educates, inspires and creates opportunities for the youth?” His remarks sparked a broader conversation about representation, access and whether South Africa is truly preparing young people to lead or simply expecting them to inherit systems they were never invited to help build.

If you do anything today, please listen to this 3-min clip on what Co-CEO Joseph Chalom refers to as The ETH Opportunity... FYI, Joe is the former Head of Digital Assets Strategy at BlackRock, who drove the creation of IBIT, ETHA, and BUIDL. "The more assets and transactions that are secured on the Ethereum network, have been proven to increase the value of ETH..." "If you look at the last 5 years, for each $2 secured on the network, on Ethereum and the L2s, it's driven about $1 of market cap value of Ethereum [ETH]..." "And if you take a step back and say stablecoins are at this size today, but Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says it's gonna grow to a trillion over the next 3 years, if you look at the adoption of RWAs, which is in the first inning and can literally go j-curve, the value of tokenized assets which could be measured in the trillions or tens of trillions... they are gonna be secured by a decentralized network. We believe the vast majority is gonna be Ethereum. That is a bull case for ETH..." "If more assets are secured on the Ethereum network, the value of ETH will go up, and the value of it being a trust commodity, the highest value of money, is gonna be critically important if you believe we are at a paradigm shift, and that's what I call the ETH opportunity. It's not a trade, it's an ETH opportunity." "And for all of those who feel like they missed the early days of crypto, you are at still a very early entry point in the adoption of Ethereum and that is the long term ETH opportunity, not the ETH trade."

This is my series where I book a standard room at every hotel in Las Vegas and show you everything you need to know. I’m inspecting mattresses, cleanliness, looking for bed bugs, testing water pressure and smells. No influencer trickery or arranged visits, this is a look at what you can expect at each resort. Next is Caesars Palace (part one, the least expensive room) My expectations were higher than they should have been because this property is billed as a luxury resort. The less expensive rooms are at best a high end budget stay, and there are better options for the price pount. In the next video I will inspect a room at NOBU. #vegas #lasvegas #vegasstarfish #vegashotels #bedbugs #hotelinspector #vegasvacation #vegasonabudget #vegaslocal #caesarspalace #vegasonabudget #vegashotelrooms #vegasnews #vegasreview #wheretostayinvegas #starfishstays

🚨BREAKING: BlackRock Exec at Ripple Swell: “The Market Is Ready — Trillions Are Coming On-Chain” 💥 This might’ve been the most electric moment of Ripple Swell 2025. Maxwell Stein, a representative from BlackRock, took the stage and straight-up said what everyone’s been waiting to hear: “We’ve seen what early adopters of crypto have done — they’ve shown us what’s possible. And now… the market is ready for broader adoption.” You could feel the room shift. Stein credited Ripple and other early builders for proving that blockchain works — not as a concept, but as real financial infrastructure. 🏦 “They’ve already tokenized fixed income, bonds, stablecoins… that’s where it started. But this is the rails for trillions in capital flows.” 💬 BlackRock saying “trillions” — at Ripple’s own event — isn’t a coincidence. It’s a signal. Institutional money is no longer circling the crypto industry… it’s starting to plug in. He finished with a challenge to the room: “You crypto people — keep building market momentum.” And just like that, Ripple’s narrative of “institutional rails for global liquidity” hit a whole new level of credibility. 🚀

⚠️Warning! Former HUD official says we have only 2 years to prevent the digital enslavement grid. "We have maybe at most two years." "When they say it's 2030 and you have no assets, they're serious." "They can literally take all your assets, including your kids." This clip of Catherine Austin Fitts, a former Assistant Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, investment banker, and founder of the Solari Report (The Solari Report | Catherine Austin Fitts), is taken from a discussion with the Canadian Prepper (Canadian Prepper) posted to YouTube on April 10, 2026. ----------------Partial transcription of clip--------------- In other words, it's the end of currency because it's simply a rule system. And you can earn credits in the rule system and the rule system can apply all sorts of carrots and sticks. So if you're very, very good, you could get more credits. If you're bad, you could have your credits taken away. So the big issue here, if you look at the world that we've grown up in, most of us have grown up, whether Canada, the United States, in a world where the bankers control monetary policy and the people's representatives control fiscal policy, which means the people's representatives set taxes and then determine how the money's going to be spent. Now, the bankers in the system can control what taxes are. If they want to raise taxes, they just take it out of your account. You have no control. And, there's no need to vote for representatives because the bankers can control it directly and they can decide how it's spent. And if you don't like that, they can turn off your money. This is coming now. I mean, if you look at the debanking, you look at the control of credit cards, if you look at the new stablecoins putting terms and conditions that say you're not allowed to buy, you can't buy a bow and arrow with Circle until there was a whole hullabaloo and they had to change their terms and conditions. But this is here now. And most importantly, the laws and the systems are being put in place that make this possible. So now is the time. We have maybe at most two years to do the things we need to do to prevent this from clicking in and going live. So when they say it's 2030 and you have no assets, they're serious. They're creating a system where they can literally take all your assets, including your kids.

Most founders underestimate what a real community does for you. It's not the events, the group chats, or the name in your bio. It's who you meet. The founder who saves you six months because they already ran the exact play you're about to try. The introduction that becomes your next hire. The dinner conversation that reshapes how you think about the business you've been building for five years. You can't engineer that on your own. You can only put yourself in rooms where it becomes likely. That's what the right community unlocks. That's what we've built at The Founders Club.

Martin Lewis, founder of MoneySavingExpert. com, on the four things it takes to be really successful, and why the most important one isn't what you'd expect: He opens with a clear framework: "It takes four things to be really successful. Talent, you've all got it, as do many more people than you think. Hard work. If you want to be really successful, you're going to have to work hard. Focus. Zone in on what you're good at." On focus, he pushes back against the idea that you need to be exceptional at everything: "Understand, none of us are unfailingly brilliant at everything. So, find the thing that you're good at and zone in on that. And that is what will create your success." But the fourth factor is where his message turns unexpected: "The most important thing is luck. You can do everything right, but it still not work for you. And you need to know that now." This reframes how he wants people to think about setbacks: "Failing does not make you a failure. Do not judge yourself. See it as a way to learn and to give yourself a better opportunity the next time." Martin Lewis then challenges a common assumption about what success actually delivers: "Success can be stressful. Success is not a synonym for happiness. As you go through your working careers, at sometimes you may want to make a call. Do I continue to push that hard or do I smile at what I've got and enjoy happiness and the other things that life starts to give me?" He closes with a message aimed at those who do make it big: "One or two of you in here will make it really big. If that's you, remember of those four things, the most important one is luck. And that means if you're that super successful one in the room, you have a moral duty to give back."

He closes with a message aimed at those who do make it big: "One or two of you in here will make it really big. If that's you, remember of those four things, the most important one is luck. And that means if you're that super successful one in the room, you have a moral duty to give back."

.DHH on why the best ideas usually sound stupid at first: “You have to have a high tolerance for people telling you what you're building is stupid, what you're building is ugly, what you're building is never gonna work.

Nobody has done that in the world before...Now, when you look at the benefits of that, you look at housing, you look at health, you look at food, you look at finance, you look at educational access, health access. I defy you to show me discrimination. In fact, the more digital we have become, the more faceless the governance has become. Actually, it's become fairer..."
