My son Dempsey wanted to do a dance around the world in Epcot at @WaltDisneyWorld. Wife posted it on TikTok, now he's going viral and @Disney called us before we even left the parks and wanted to give him a gift for his new dance trend. A year ago he went viral for singing with @PostMalone in Idaho. This kids got me beat and he's only 11....

I feel like we can trace all the worlds problems back to the time people started saying "1.7k or 1 point 7 thousand" instead of 1700 (Seventeen Hundred). That's where we lost our way...

I just came back from3 weeks in Italy this summer. Every single tour guide and local I communicated with talked passionately about how the Pope murdered and enslaved the Italian people for generations... This seems like the wrong person to comment on this.

Seems like everyone forgot...

Do these people purposefully give bad advice? Just casually costing someone millions.

It's a weird day when they got me cheering on the SEC....

"Go to probate to get your money back" This is insane @coinbase

The "press and hold the photo to see another photo" fewture is about the most annoying thing I've ever seen on here. It's 90% of posts now...

I worked for a large firm 12+ years ago, before I started Windle Wealth But there's a story about how that happened that most people don't know. In 2014 I had been going back and forth on whether I should leave and start my own firm. Whether or not I could do it. I spent a lot of time driving through office parks on my way home from work every night just to look at what was available and really dream more than anything. One day, I made my way through our current office park. I drove around it a little bit and noticed a "For Rent" sign on the building we are currently in. Normally I wouldn't call but it was close to home and something told me to call. I was parked in front and a man picked up the phone. He was extremely excited to hear from me. I said "I was just curious about the office you have for rent". He said "Are you there now? I will be there in 5 minutes if you can wait!". I said, "Well I just had some questions". He said, "No, stay there. I want to show it to you" He pulled up and we spent the next 3 hours talking in what is now our conference room. I told him how frustrated I was with the company I worked for and he told me how he went through the same thing as a doctor at a large hospital. He then said something to me that I repeat to this day: "Always bet on yourself. You know what's right for your clients". As we were walking out I told him that I'd have to think about it as I just wasn't sure if it was the right time. He stopped me: "DJ. You remind me of me. I know you will do great things for people. I want you to have your own business, so you can take care of people. Here is the key to the office. It's yours. If you promise me you'll leave in the next 30 days, you don't need to pay rent for 3 months and you can pay me the deposit over the next 6 months and I'll be one of your first clients at your new firm". I left with the keys, no lease and an opportunity. From a man I had just met. He did become one of the first Windle Wealth clients and for the next 12 years, not a single interaction whether by phone or in person, ended without him saying "I love you man. I'm so proud of you" We found out today this beautiful man passed away last week at 67. He had just been in my office the week before. We were drinking coffee on a Friday afternoon trying to solve all the worlds problems and his lack of technology skills. He gave me the opportunity to employ people, to get married, to travel the world, to take care of people, to buy the home we live in, to record an album in the Oregon Mountains and to impact hundreds of people in many states. I've lost dozens of people I have absolutely adored over 20 years of doing this and it doesn't get any eaaier. But I sure will miss the hell out of this guy saying "I love you man....."

The conspiracy theory peeps couldn't take the Benadryl of W's they had the last few years. Now they think everything is a conspiracy and they sound insane..... Sometimes, things are just what they are.

I spent 3.5 hours with someone in my office today. We didn't even discuss finances. We talked about the death of her husband. what it's like suddenly waking up being the oldest person alive in your family with no one to talk to, how she feels about scratching and clawing to keep her home for over 40 years, just to have to sell it now that her husbands gone. and we spent a lot of time wiping tears away, while talking about what her life looks like going forward and who she wants to be now that it's her turn to decide. All these advisors posting about CEO compensation, Roth Conversions, Tax Optimization and how many "leads" they got online just don't get it. I just don't care about your junk posts. There's a whole person there you are ignoring.

The Iran conflict now just feels like a tabloid fight between some famous couple that no one cares about anymore. It doesn't even feel serious anymore.... – at Warr Acres, OK

Today we moved the last $40 Million we had left at Schwab to @altruist . Bye Felicia...

REL SpaceX "Pigs get slaughtered"

Everyone's hyped up about Space X... Sounds cool.... but..... You do realize they just remade Zelda : Ocarina of Time? – at Fiumicino, Lazio

Space X - 4 X Oversubscribed (4 people want a share for every 1 available) - At IPO, it's priced at 90-100x it's actual revenue. Which means it's IPO price is as if the revenue is 10 years in the future. This one's probably gonna be volatile. Remember, a company has to justify earnings after an IPO or it usually crashes hard after the hype. And after lock out period, initial investors dump their stock on the public. Average 55% drop. Roughly 100% of IPOs have had a major drop in the first year after IPO. Alot of people get hurt trying to chase returns when they buy right after stocks go public, instead of waiting until the price is stable. – at Olbia, Sardinia

Hot Take on AI: I've been a musician my entirely life. Play 5 different instruments and have albums on all streaming platforms. I don't get the hate people have with others using AI to help them create music. It's just another tool. Everyone was fine for the last decade with every band on the planet programming their drums, programming strings, using plugins. AI is simply a way to get your idea out quicker. Sure, I get it, the physical struggle of creating a song is beautiful. I've done it many times and still do. However, AI allows your idea to show itself much faster, to determine if it's worth pursuing. And sure, the randomly generated AI songs are annoying sometimes but they also have their place. They can be fun and regardless of how you use it, it always starts with someones idea.... – at San Teodoro, Sardinia

It's funny how the lane you leave always clears up right after deciding to change lanes. ....and the people that were behind you, quickly leave you behind. The universe rewards patience.... mercilessly
