I've just moved into a new house, in a beautiful suburb of central Melbourne. And what a difference. After a few years of chopping and changing, finding myself in leaky apartments and minuscule studios, the benefits are already clear. I am benefitting from a clear mind. Previously, I viewed where you live in mechanical terms; a secure space to eat, sleep and store a few possessions. That was misguided.

This will feel more personal. Perhaps random at times. The intent in my heads feels more clear however. How on earth do I channel my energies into something worthwhile, and everlasting. Or something like that.

Let me begin with the words you are kindly digesting. I do not pretend to have all the answers. I do not claim that There Is No Alternative. This publication is only a starting gun for something bigger. We must play to the strengths of the online world to elevate, scrutinise and refine our arguments for the offline world. We must use our digital community to share, challenge, teach and learn.

There is no reason why we cannot still refer to landlords and tenants, consultants and clients etc. They will remain the backbone of the industry, after all. The future however, belongs to those who prioritise people-centric language. Those who design and build experiential real estate. Those who refer to family life, continuous learning and regional vibrancy.

I don’t know exactly how this all plays out. What I do know is that the world we’re stepping into is radically different from the one we knew. As we wave goodbye to the 20th century, we enter a new era — one of decentralized networks, personal sovereignty, and self-determined futures.We’re no longer tethered to the old systems. We’re free to explore new ways of working, living, and interacting with each other. The tools we use — from Bitcoin to personal infrastructure — are just the beginning. The real power lies in how we choose to engage with them. The 21st century is a time for exploration, creativity, and growth. It’s up to us to seize it.So, welcome to the 21st century. The future is now, and it’s decentralized. The tools are at our disposal. Let’s get cracking.
Another Vervaeke inspired musing, folks. This time over four Greek words I have been introduced to, thanks to his series; Agape, Logos, Gnosis and Anagoge. The best way for me to explore these terms (or concepts even) is to relate them to my own investing and writing efforts. And before we begin, I must admit to borrowing heavily from other sources to help with the explanations (a big hat tip to Mark Mulvey and Andrew Seeney). So please bear with the heavy quoting. On that bombshell, let's roll.
All is not what it seems, especially when you develop a strange fascination with assets, Nixon and monetary history. Jack attempts to settle his bill with a dollar from 1980 (when the film was released). But the barman, a figment of the 1920s, does not equate Jack's money with his own. How so? The clue is in the name; The Gold Room. The barman cannot accept 1980 dollars because they are a very different beast to 1920s dollars; they are no longer redeemable in gold.
In its purest form, commerce acts as the great motivator, the ultimate mentor. We conduct our commercial affairs against a backdrop of economic and trading uncertainty. Our decisions and behaviour are constantly pitted against known unknowns and unknown unknowns. We are drawn to ingenuity and innovation through the actions and presence of our competitors. We observe, learn from, and adapt to ever shifting risks and opportunities.
