The best $1 I’ve ever spent

Hey friends, 

Fun fact: the word "school" is derived from the Greek word schole, meaning “leisure.”

Yet for some reason, nowadays we don’t associate learning with leisure…

💸 Best $1 Purchase

Jack Butcher recently changed the price of Permissionless Apprentice from $100 to $1. 

It’s a quick (<60 minutes) course highlighting how to connect with people whose work you admire. 

Essentially, if you have a cool idea...Don’t wait for permission. Just go do it.

Here’s a preview of my favorite examples. 

⏳ Go For It

In 2007 Joe Gebbia and Brian Chesky were roommates in San Fransisco when their rent was suddenly increased by $1,050. (ouch)

So Joe comes up with a crazy idea “to make a few bucks” sending this email to his roomie.

Today Airbnb is a multi billion-dollar biz. Ha!

Check out this article on their journey as Joe just stepped down.

👶 Fun Fact

Humans are “deuterostomes" meaning when developing in the womb, the anus is the first to form. 

This basically means, at one point, you were literally nothing but an *sshole.

Note: some people never develop beyond this stage.

Mucho amor,

Ps. Happy tail wag
