While I appreciate the kind interventions in response to @FortuneMagazine's NFTy 50 list, it has never been my intention to "influence" or be on a list.
I enjoy serving information and advice as is and watching creators wield that power to innovate, create and succeed.

Collectors would not have anything to collect without Creators.
Creators of bodies of work.
Creators of platforms.
Creators of architecture.
Creators of opportunity through capital.
@FortuneMagazine, some nice entries, but here's some of who you missed:
While this might be still too early, in times of crisis we look for the silver lining.
In Chinese, the word "crisis" is comprised of two characters: "危" (danger) and "机" (opportunity).

Membership
The black-swan event that resulted in a artifically low entry point and a signifcant increase in $WHALE holders and @whale_community membership.

Market Validation
While we will encounter artificial price supression in the short term due to front-runners in the price dip, we received immense market validatin on $WHALE and the @whale_community.
To all who bought $WHALE, thank you for your trust and your support.

Don't be "that guy" who had it and lost it all.

Debt: Pay it off
Contraty to popular belief, you cannot build a sustainable empire on a rickety house of cards.
The majority of debt sucks and will suck you for all your worth when you're both in and out of the money.
Prioritize paying off debt over all other expenses.

Rain Day Fund: Have one
Earnings are cyclical in nature and nobody shoots straight to the moon.
Accumulating a rainy day fund that covers all your expenses (rent, food, utilities) for at least 6 months and then expanding it is essential.
