We're offering 5,000 free passports (equivalent to $5 billion in our passport program) to highly skilled scientists, engineers, doctors, artists, and philosophers from abroad.
This represents less than 0.1% of our population, so granting them full citizen status, including voting rights, poses no issue.
Despite the small number, their contributions will have a huge impact on our society and the future of our country.
Plus, we will facilitate their relocation by ensuring 0% taxes and tariffs on moving families and assets. This includes commercial value items like equipment, software, and intellectual property.
Stay tuned for more details 🇸🇻

22/26: Insight 11: Confidence empowered risk taking which drove returns. There are no “sure things” ---every investment comes with risk. Understanding risk is a beginner level skill. Taking the risk is a more advanced competency. Embracing risk earns you a black belt.

And more on tech news in the small carrier, independent owner-operator space. A Miami-based startup, @smarthop, is trying to arm those companies with backbone software that collectively allows them to function like a large truckload carrier: joc.com/technology/logistics… @JOC_Updates
Read this today and went, hmmm: “The real danger is not in thinking too little, then, but rather in behaving as though we had great confidence in conclusions that were reached with little thought.”

Isaac Newton's Woolsthorpe Manor Home, England, where he retreated to escape the 1665 Bubonic Plague. While there he discovered the law of gravity, which apply everywhere in the universe except, apparently, at his famous Flower-of-Kent apple tree, out back.
Had an amazing chat with @jeff Clavier about the struggles founders and VC face during economic downturns. He shares learnings from the DotCom crash, and the 2008 financial crisis. Check it out: spoti.fi/2Ow5CTC
