TSN #7 - Five Pieces of Content I'm Watching These Days
Summer is the time to get ahead, here is my collection of 5 content pieces I enjoyed.

A couple of months ago, I decided to do a full cleanup of the content I was consuming.
The motivation?
Our focus span is limited; if we put garbage in, that will be our focus. I went through all my podcasts, YouTube channels, X, and Instagram followings to keep only what fits my current interests.
Along the way, I identified a couple of golden nuggets of content that I am sharing with you now. Very diverse, but if something catches your attention, it’s worth rewatching or rereading.
Same as last week, I have a little ask before we continue. Summer season is the time to get ahead, please forward or share this newsletter with 2 friends. Thank you!

1/ Mushroom growing business - case study
Looking for exciting boring businesses? Well, this one might be it. I enjoyed how they laid out the whole business from an idea to execution.
2/ Math behind founding a tech startup
In the last issue I spoke about launching a startup and how much of a mistake/gamble it can be early on. Levelsio brings a nice perspective with numbers, looks scary.
VC STARTUPS
- odds of IPO for VC startup: 1%
- avg time spent on VC startup: 8.5 years
- market cap avg @ IPO: $5B
- avg % ownership @ IPO: 15%* $5B = $750M
- avg 2.5 cofounders = $300M
- payout = odds * $$$ = 1% * $300M = $3M
- payout per year = $3M/8.5 years= $352,000/year

3/ My man Andrew on becoming a billionaire
I consume everything from this guy, I watch and read things multiple times. This is an excerpt from his upcoming new book and I already love it. You can preorder it on Amazon, it will ship by the end of July.
It was 5 am. I sat bolt upright in bed, and I smiled ear to ear.
That’s because today was the most important day of my life.
It was a day I had been waiting for more than a decade.
A pinch-me kind of day.
A day where nothing could go wrong.
I quickly showered, dressed,… x.com/i/web/status/1…

4/ Multi-preneur? Huh?
I’ve mentioned it in the last couple of issues, well this is it. I like coming back to it, he is very straight to the point with his businesses.
5/ Largest pressure washing company in the world
I keep coming back to this one, a great example of boring biz meets innovation.
Let me know if you like these resources. I might do another summary of content for August too.
