♣ Thought of the Week
◘ Some days you carry, some days you’re carried.
♣ Tech
◘ How Elon Musk Does So Much
He is nothing short of a superhuman or the hero of this generation. His sheer difference and abnormality from us ordinary people are truly astonishing and almost beyond comprehension.
I often find myself wondering about the source of his immense mental strength. I’ve tried to understand it, but I simply can’t. The level of drive he possesses seems inexplicable.
♣ Creator Economy
◘ Experience the Underwater World Through the Eyes of a Free Diver | Short Film Showcase
Filmed by Julie Gautier (Néry’s wife) while she was also free diving, the breathtaking short film One Breath Around the World captures free diver Guillaume Néry’s stunning underwater exploits. The film, from Les Films Engloutis, follows Néry as he glides under ice sheets, walks the ocean floor alongside spearfishermen, and swims with whales. This unparalleled journey was shot in diverse locations, including France, Finland, Mexico, Japan, and the Philippines.
♣ Pop Culture
◘ I Watched Every Tom Cruise Movie
If you are a To Cruise fan, then this video is a treat for you. I am a Tom Cruise fan, he is one of the most interesting actor I respect for his work ethic and the lengths he go for his movies.
This particular comment from this video is quotable here:
“I actually worked with Tom Cruise on American Made as an FBI extra during Barry Seals incarceration bench scene where he discusses getting each of us Cadillacs. I never got a picture or autograph, I just saw him sitting there, memorizing his lines, and looking around. We both made eye contact, where I smiled and nodded at him, he smiled and nodded back at me. A precious little moment in my life, where things weren’t going to well”
♣ Business
◘ The Man Who Robbed An Entire Country
Jho Low orchestrated “the greatest financial heist,” stealing billions from Malaysia’s 1MDB investment fund. With unparalleled cash at his disposal, unfettered by illiquid assets, he spent lavishly: throwing massive parties, courting celebrities, and even funding The Wolf of Wall Street (ironically, a film about a financial scam financed by one).
His fraud relied on shell accounts, tax havens, loopholes, and, critically, his ability to network strategically with the powerful. The real-world consequence: money intended for Malaysian development projects that could have benefited many was stolen. This is the insane story of Jho Low and how to get rich fast with no morals.
