My family members are strongly suggesting that I not attend the Wu-Tang Clan's 36 Chambers 25th Anniversary Celebration that is coming to a local venue in June. Readers of my 25IQ blog know that Rza is a wholesale transfer pricing expert, as I wrote here: 25iq.com/2016/01/02/a-d…
Rza proves you don't need to attend school to learn business skills. To illustrate, this is Rza on WTP:

”You could sell weed and make a little money, but most of it gets made for the guy you’re selling it for. It’s the same thing in the music business, except it’s legal.”
Only one follower on Twitter suggested that it might be a good idea for me to attend the Wu-tang concert. My family is using this as evidence that I might embarrasss them via my actions at the event, despite the fact that cash rules everything around me (but it doesn't rule me).

Having "earnings" does not mean you have cash. That's in focus right now ta GE. “Industrial free cash flow of zero to negative $2 billion that GE projected for this year falls well short of the $4.5 billion generated in 2018.” bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
"You actually can’t spend net income—net income is an accounting construction. ...Cash is king, after all. That’s especially true for GE. Management and analysts mentioned “cash flow” seven times more frequently than 'earnings'” barrons.com/articles/at-ge…
Culp told analysts "Our businesses can be much better cash generators over time, and that’s where I see the upside at GE. But let me remind you, this is a game of inches, every single day.” amp.ft.com/content/fe9cef…

When you have customers who want to be involved influencing product direction, treating these fans as insiders pays big dividends. They can help you understand how to make your services better and will evangelize them to others. Microsoft Office does this (Twitter @OfficeInsider)
A few tweets recently have mentioned customer heterogeneity, which can lead to situations like this thetaequity.com/lyft-ipo “Variability in customers’ CLVs is high. The company may be losing money on up to 80% of its customers, but more than makes up for it on a highly loyal 20%”
If you have customers who are fans of your products tapping into their experiences and expertise is a gold mine. Rewarding then for being fans of your products is a best practice. Not all customers are equal in their willingness to help make improvements. Be a fan of your fans.

"Verizon is offering true, unlimited data to customers with 5G." google.com/amp/s/www.thev…

This is in contrast to fake unlimited data, of course.
"5G Moto Mod has its own Snapdragon 855 processor, X50 5G modem, 10 antennas, and its own 2,000mAh battery so idrain your battery and is 7mm thick at its thickest point." It's a snap on. google.com/amp/s/www.thev… proximity sensors shut off millimeter wave if your fingers get close.
Carnival Rube: "Where is millimeter wave 5G available now?"
Navin: "Uh, anything in this general area right in here. Anything below the stereo and on this side of the bicentennial glasses. Anything between the ashtrays and the thimble. Anything in this three inches right in here"

genres created by black people:
- negro spirituals
- gospel
- blues
- country
- pop
- jazz
- r&b
- rock and roll
- soul
- funk
- ska
- reggae
- dubstep
- house
- hip hop
- rap
- edm
- dancehall
- trap
- soul
- samba
- bachata
- merengue
- reggaeton
and more
I think it’s important to note people’s continuous habit to erase black people’s presence in the very music that they create. You like to discredit or barely give credit to the pioneers of these genres that I named.
When you guys say something like “ I thought rap was a bunch of nonsense before BTS”. Shows just how discriminatory you were towards black music before even actually giving it a chance.

OK gonna listen to all of these, unless they're records I listen to a lot any way. spin.com/2015/05/the-30…
** NEW THREAD **
206. SISTER - Sonic Youth.
Surprised to see this on the list as folks usually go for the records either side which are either more raw in sound or more ambitious in scope (about which, more much later). Had to listen to again to confirm that yes, it's great.
205. THE INFAMOUS - Mobb Deep.
Still listen to this all the time. Also a fan of the confusingly titled 'The Infamous Mobb Deep'. The week Prodigy died there was a mural up in Chaffers Park. He also signed a photo for Five Boroughs but that's beside the point.

Pro tip: Learn as much as you can from @BrentBeshore.

An honor to host him on the "Naked Brands Interview Series."

Themes:

🗣️ Why marketing is like investing

📱Building trust with content marketing

👨‍👦‍👦 The Wu-Tang Clan approach to marketing

perell.com/blog/brent-bes…
"The less developed a market, the less valuable you have to be in absolute terms. You just have to be better than everyone else. I don’t want to try to outcompete smart, and hard working people. I want to find the lowest bar to jump over and then get good at pole vaulting."

💯
The mechanics of marketing work identically in every business, although the application varies wildly:

1) Find customers.

2) Educate them on your value proposition.

3) Build trust.

4) Deliver for them.

5) Ask them to tell their friends.

These rap and tech tweets won’t stop. Because they can’t stop.

Imagine a well operating team. It’ll mirror what Wu-Tang Clan did. It’ll form like Voltron and you’ll have a Genius at the head. You’ll even have an ODB because every great team needs an ODB.
The ODB great because there is “no father to his style”. This individual does great things outside of the status quo.
Your Method Man brings credibility to your team. They aren’t the only star of your group, but the masses can relate. They can do great things for the “street” (other techies), but can crossover when needed.

Je vois et reçois trop d'histoires et de commentaires tristes sur la vie de couple, notamment autour de moi. Du coup, je vous ai fait un thread qui va décomplexer tout le monde, avec du Wu Tang, du Biactol et du Charles Bronson dedans. Ça s'appelle #GhettoLove 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽
Meufs be like "Pr le mariage c'est mort, tous les mecbiens sont soit pris, soit à Bahawalpur. Mm pas en rêve mon père accepterait si un mecbien venait me khtob en Urdu. À - que je prépare un bon plan à base de scénario Bollywood genre 't'as vu c'est comme le film de maman, là' "
Mecs be like "Moi qui essaie d'être un mecbien, mes chances de trouver une meufbien qui 1) cherche pas la maille 2) m'accepte même si j'ai pas fait Harvard sur Seine 3) me plaise, sont en train de se réduire comme les chances de Nadine Morano de recevoir la médaille Fields"
