Reading a history of the bond market recently, and the author noted that Britain defeated Napoleon mostly because their consol bond market left the British military much better funded than France’s weak post-revolutionary capital markets. One Alexander Hamilton studied the British bond market, and then consolidated American revolutionary debt into one tradable market, which gave birth to what became the New York stock exchange, Liberty bonds, and the world’s largest capital markets. An army might march on its stomach, but it’s borrowed money that pays for the food and ammunition, and the one who can borrow the most generally wins.

“There are only two or three human stories, and they go on repeating themselves as fiercely as if they had never happened before.” -Willa Cather Ran into two PMs I overlapped with at Meta at the Noe Valley Cafe. Usual CV: couple of small exits, mostly vesting out at FAANG, now at the usual retirement startup involving health or education having netted their SF lifestyle bag and real estate. There aren't 7B people in the world: there are really maybe a few hundred types of people, and you'll meet a dozen of them in any given industry or career arc.

I was walking quietly in the dark atop Bernal Heights park and literally almost walked into a wild coyote. We both recoiled; I couldn't tell who was more startled. Intrigued, I stalked him from a distance until I came upon him at the edge of the park, relieving himself. He took one look at me, then darted into the surrounding houses and disappeared.

The media doesn't want you to know this, but if you're a guilt-ridden rich guy who thinks the rich should pay more in taxes...you can just send all your money to the government! Yes, really. The Bureau of Fiscal Service has a voluntary account since 1843, and you can hand over all your earthly belongings to Uncle Sam if you feel they can do more with your money than you can. Think we should all pay more taxes? Then you get to go first. (Scott Kirby is worth ~$100M). https://t.co/6O5xzNATox
