    The S.T.U.P.I.D. Email (04-01-2022)

    (Swipe, Thought, Uplifting, Picture, Interesting, Drawing)
    This is a fun email for Friday April 1st, 2022. Hope you like it 🙂

     

    🎤 Listen to this email here:

     

    Swipe:

    This is a 1991 ad for a shoe called The "Nike Air Huarache"

    The headline does a good job of conveying this shoe was designed to conform to your foot with the help of a strapping mechanism.

    It's been about 40 years since it's release, and Nike recently re-released this classic shoe in 2022!

     

     

     

    Thought:

    This slide from ARK Investments shows a chart of how they think about the price of Bitcoin in around 10 years:

    bitcoin-graph.webp

    The thing I like about the slide is how they breakdown their price expectations with this color coded chart:

    bitcoin-graph-2.webp

    While I'm not commenting on the validity of this claim, it's cool to see how they broke it down in this chart using numbers from the real world.

     

     

     

    Uplifting:

    In the mail the other day I got this cool light-up sign. It didn't include any info on who it was from, so I turned to Twitter to figure out who sent it:

    Turns out it was my friend Adam Gilbert from MyBodyTutor (who I use for tracking my food) who sent it!

    It's a neat light up sign for my garage gym. I hung it up, check it out:

    Picture:

    I often dogsit friends dogs, but I am now officially "The Dogfather" of the two dogs on the left (Hugsy & CJ) 😂

    When I say "officially," I mean there's an actual legal document that states that I am their "Dog Father" 😂

    So I'm taking care of these pups all week while the owners have a baby.

    I'm making sure they get plenty of exercise:

    Hugsy makes lots of goofy faces:

    Also the dogs have won a Paw-litzer Prize 😂

    Interesting:

    This is a neat "anti-ad" I saw on Instagram trying to recruit salespeople to come work for this company:

    It says:
    "We don't do catchy ads. We just produce numbers. Come make $100k your first year selling solar."

    They are trying to recruit salespeople who just wanna hit their numbers, so this ad plays in perfectly to that!

     

     

     

    Drawing:

    This is a concept I've liked for a long time: Concentrating more on your "Circle Of Influence."

    Circle of Control: Things you can fully control. Focus on these most.

    Circle of Influence: Things you can have an impact on but can't fully control.

    External Circle: Things you can't control, and therefore shouldn't think about too much.

    I've seen many versions of this around the web, and I always have liked the sentiment it portrays:

    Hope you enjoyed these little tidbits, have a happy Friday!

    Bahahaha @Mark D Bartolo do it! 

    My friend Adam Gilbert from MyBodyTutor.com sent it to me. I use his company for watching what I eat (literally every morning at 10:15am a dude calls me to ask what I'm gonna eat for the day and what working I'm going to do). 

    Works wonders for changing lifelong eating habits!

    I would change my eating habits, but I save much money on several of the dinners we defrost from the in-laws giving us home made food to the point we only cook on special occasions or when everything has run out. Fortunate and unfortunate at the same time? I'm not too sure. 

    Showed the wifey your sign and we ended up getting this one from Etsy.

    Too many lighting options, but the sign is cool!
