💼 Portfolio Career

Meet Harper Lee who wrote To Kill a Mockingbird. She was also an airline ticket clerk.

 

⚡️ Productivity

Here’s how to land a board seat (and maybe make some income): (1) know your role, (2) know your industry, (3) understand your motivation, (4) network like crazy, and more…

I don’t like serving on boards (I only serve on one). That’s because I don’t like sitting in meetings. I prefer doing, building, making. There’s nothing wrong with serving on a board, it just hasn’t been for me. 

 

💰 Money

Consider Best Buy (BBY). Stock has flatlined this year, but the company recently boosted its dividend 26%. And there is a $5 billion share buyback underway. Here’s an outlook.

 

📚 Books

Read It’s All In Your Head by Russ. Twenty-seven-year-old rapper, songwriter, and producer Russ walks his own path, at his own pace. By doing so, he proved that he didn’t need a major label to surpass over a billion streams on Spotify/Apple Music, get on Forbes’ 2019 “30 Under 30,” make the Forbes‘ “30 Under 30 Cash Kings” at number 20 for most earned, sell out arenas across the U.S. and around the globe.

 

🎵 Music

Listen to Unfolding by Kabir Sehgal (hi!). My new pop EP is composed of four songs: (1) When We Fight, (2) Out of the Blue, (3) Big City Pipe Dreams, (4) Collateral. Featuring vocalists Ariana Savalas, Sonna Rele, Nicole Zuraitis, Leah Harris. This is one is dope!!

 

📽️ Film

Watch The Tinder Swindler directed by Felicity Morris. Posing as a wealthy, jet-setting diamond mogul, he wooed women online, then conned them out of millions of dollars. Now some victims plan for payback.
