@ravihanda 1) Entire D2C space for me is - don’t want to use a boomer/millennial brand (tourister, Samsonite) and I can’t afford the luxury one’s so I will settle for one in the middle (price wise and coolness quotient) 2) Also, mokobara has built quite a brand atleast in the zoomer 1/2

One smart way to retire early is generating $1000s/ month in passive income through SEO. 1. Choose a niche 2. Write content 3. SEO it! Went through this course where these founders are making $10,000+/ mo. Super actionable & insightful.

While I am no personal finance expert, I have distilled down my investing to an extremely passive & diversified strategy While returns over the long term will tell the true picture, this is believe is a robust one without requiring a ton of research (Thread)

@vindytalks Search Intent is a great proxy! Look at match day spikes two matches in. Whether these searches lead to customers/revenues (PS: it does because I led the ICC campaign for Uber India) is anyone's guess but this is what gets sold. Very difficult to get these spikes otherwise

TIL why OS has a feature to hide NFTs but Phantom/Magic Eden on #Solana have none It's because you mostly hide NFTs you dont want/are rugs which is most NFTs on Solana. So on Solana, you probably need a favourite button that showcases 1-2 legit NFTs you own :P
