Had Chamath sat on his hands for the last 15 years heโd be worth >$30B
But he sold his FB stake, allocated in a zillion other places, and is worth ~$1B
A billion is a billionโฆ
โฆbut is this not one of the worst trades in history?

- The All In pod is now totally un-listen-able. The banter is so unfunny / awkward / cringey. The content is all political (even business news has a political bent) and the takes are tired. Other than Friedberg, none of the hosts is likable. Overall bummer. Used to be a banger.
- A scammer exploited a glitch on our site such that he could check out with a $0.00 item thousands of times. We of course cancelled all orders. Then we get this... What's the most epic response possible?
- Ballmer - now THATโS a guy who knows how to sit on his hands
- โFiber is the new protein.โ - Eric Ryan, Founder of Method Soap, OLLY, and Welly Bandaids (An undisputed GOAT of CPG)
Fiber is the next protein. - Sales Guy: "We think you'd be a great fit to feature in an episode on our show about startups." Me: "Cool. Just to confirm - no cost right?" Sales Guy: โ
- Replying to @AntonioCCollinsCouldโve just chased the fame rather than creating negative $30 bil in value. Iโm sure he wouldโve gotten it!
- Fiber is the next protein.
- This move by Amazon is fascinating. They're now redirecting shoppers to brands' DTC sites for items that aren't sold on Amazon (an IQBAR mug being a good example below).
- Dr. Squatch and DUDE Wipes both get massively paid out. Lesson? Consumers - now more than ever - want brands with personality. And acquirers / funds have fallen in line.
- ๐จ BIG launch today ๐จ IQBAR x Thomas Keller. A co-developed Salted Caramel Chip bar and Yuzu Mango hydration mix. Snag em on our site or Amazon. Hope you enjoy!
