- I constantly yawn during the fast (sympathetic) portion of wim hof breathing. This is not uncommon.
- I’m up to about 3-4 minutes for the exhale breath hold (parasympathetic) portion.
- Equityzen.
- Create an SPV. Buy large blocks of PE and move into the SPV.
- Issuers/companies are ok selling these blocks of shares because they know EZ. The model is known and friendly. The company can control the total equity. They’re ok with EZ on their cap table in X amount.
- EZ then splits the SPV into units, selling to PE buyers on their secondary marketplace.
- EZ has info asymmetry though; they control everything through their platform.
- If a lender/investor/fund holds an asset, it can usually be rehypothecated. Leverage again for the holder’s own purposes to get secondary yield. This is much harder to do with illiquid assets (like PE), making them (relatively) less attractive collateral classes.
- Adjusted butcherbox, basically making my regular orders everything that’s mass-efficient (~3lbs in each of my 6 slots, plus free 2lbs ground beef, yielding a total of 18lbs of meat for $170/mo or ~$10 per meal). Then go to member deals every month for the good stuff that’s not mealprep.
- Regular 6: chicken breast 3lb, thigh 3lb, pork loin roast 3lb, butt, 3.5lbs, salmon 2lbs, cod 2lbs.
- Overall this service actually isn’t cheaper; $10 for a pound of raw meat is not good. I’ll probably cancel soon.
- About 1 in 3 business owners in the US partner with BoA Business.
- Quid’s second fund totals $320M for PE shareholders to borrow against and was led by Oaktree, Davidson Kempner, and some northeast ivy league endowment. They’ve loaned against Palantir, Uber, Lyft, Unity.
- To retitle your home and transfer the deed over to the trust, it costs a few hundred.
