BREAKING: I spent 15 minutes going DEEP into a web3 hole this weekend.

Here is what I learned 🧵👇 Follow for more insights @austin_rief

1/ 1 year ago, @MorningBrew launched our new education division -- @learningbrew.

Since then, we’ve:

- Had 700 professionals take our flagship program, MB/A
- Grown the team to 9 people
- Launched 4 new products

Here is an update [THREAD] 2/ We wanted to engage with our users in a more meaningful way.

So, we decided to take the BS out of business education by building a cohort-based course that was:

- hyper-relevant and accessible
- fun!
- gives you a B school like network

"Morning Brew is ready for adulthood"

- $20m to $50m in revenue
- double digit profit margins

1/ Today is @MorningBrew's 7th birthday.

It's crazy how time flies.

In honor of #7, re-tweeting my favorite story of how a fortune cookie changed my life. (thread) 2/ @businessbarista and I started @morningbrew in 2015. But it was only a side project.

I took an internship at an investment bank after my junior year and had full intention of returning there after college.

I thought I'd spend 2 years in banking and go work in private equity

The Bolt CEO is playing 3D chess.

Everyone thinks he went after YC as beef marketing for Bolt.

My guess is he went after YC because he's going to launch a competitor. Not beef marketing for Bolt. Beef marketing for Ryan.

Pretty smart...

Going to Italy in July.

Venice, Florence, Rome and Positano.

Drop me your recs 🙏🙏 This should be easy to plan.

Twitter: "Bezos left Amazon to work on space exploration"

Reality: He's definitely exploring...

Just had my first taste of @immieats -- highly recommend for a low carb ramen! Also, @kevinleeme is a really cool guy so go support him!

1/ In 2021, we launched @LearningBrew.

1/ This year, I shared the history of @MorningBrew in a series of tweetstorms.

Next year, I'll be outlining our 3 year plan (stay tuned).

Here is a recap of my favorite tweetstorms from 2021 on our story. 2/ How we got our first 10k subscribers.

Currently @MrBeast is #1 trending on YouTube.

34m views in 18 hours on his Squid Games video.

He’s a beast. According to @CouRageJD, @MrBeast has gained 600k subscribers.

Even if Mr. Beast didn't get the video sponsored (which he did), he's currently at a $5.83 CPA (new YT subscriber).

Let's track where this ends at.

I'm going to take this strategy literally this week.

What are your favorite small market cap shitcoins or crypto projects?

I have found my "Ape of the week".

$CT aka Crypto Twitter. Hoping for it to become the next $gm.

The funny thing is that I’ll continue to increase my financial net worth, but I’ll continue to lose my time net worth."

1/ Funny story about this room.

This is where @MorningBrew started.

Every AM @businessbarista and I would get up early and flyer every single table.

Every day, for months.

2/ Later, we wanted to raise a little money.

As undergrads, we reached out to the MBA Venture fund to invest.

We were a bit intimidated by the MBAs, but we knew they all read and thought they'd invest.

We were excited to have money to grow.
