“At its core, an entertainment business does only three things: 1) Create/tell stories 2) Build love for those stories 3) Monetize that love A good way to learn about this is through Disney. $DIS leads because it’s best at 1, 2, & 3.” @ballmatthew matthewball.vc/all/what-is-a…

What Is an Entertainment Company in 2021 and Why Does the Answer Matter? — MatthewBall.co

Movies and TV will never again compete at the box office but with every Gen Z on TikTok and the incredibly sticky ecosystems created by video games. It has never been easier to make content, distribute it to audiences, and monetize it, and never harder to make lasting brands.

Amazon just purchased MGM (James Bond) for $9B. Here's what media they should have bought instead: The Office ($500M for 5 year license) 10 blockbuster original series' ($1B max) or better yet UI Designer for Prime Video ($200k / year)

Lack of divorce is not a perfect measure of relationship success. Women’s rights, women’s economic opportunity, and lenient divorce laws all lead to higher rates of divorce because they stop women from being trapped in unhappy relationships

With that said, divorce seems to suck. With the exception of those escaping abuse, partners tend not to be much happier 4-5 years after divorce than before the divorce, but they do end up poorer and with half the amount of friends. Those who do end up happier get re-married in 4y
