Was so giddy meeting Ustad Saami ji last year. I learned Hindustani classical for many years, so hearing a master of khyal in person was once in a lifetime. Totally nerded out.

HAPPY TUESDAY AMERICA!!!! Insane to me that health insurance companies and hospital systems have been allowed to act as credit czars for so long.

If you live in North America, you live on the only continent that has every biome. This is a 4 hour flight from the tundra of Chicago.

living in Chicago has been a huuuuuuge quality of life improvement from a “increased chances of meeting people with boats” perspective

Saw this reel and felt like sharing a very intimate reflection on how financial freedom breaks generational curses: I am the *first* woman in my family to move out before getting married. My mom, aunt, grandmothers, cousins - no one else has ever been given the chance to leave home without marriage. Some of them could only get jobs if they had the permission of their husbands and in-laws to work. I feel lucky that I’ve gotten to develop a sense of self - finding my own style, travelling wherever/whenever, dating whoever, without the questioning of family. And that’s all thanks to being financially independent. No one can stop me from doing what I want, because no one has handcuffs on my bank account.

You asked Joakim all the right questions!!! Congrats on a great week :)

Hi @thesamparr ! I applied to be your co-host for MoneyWise but there's nothing in my cover letter that I wouldn't put out into the universe. So if you (or anyone for that matter) are looking for a really passionate writer and interviewer - here's why I'd kill it :)
