Hot take:
Being tied to an office makes you think too small as the business owner.
You’re constantly drawn back into the weeds.
People have access to you so they step in your office and pull you in to help.
Its hard to think bigger.

— Paul Graham (@paulg) July 14, 2023
2. The Rise Of Negative Media
— George Mack (@george__mack) July 13, 2023
Since 2010, the media massively increased headlines that use fear, anger, disgust, and sadness.
It has also decreased articles of neutrality and joy.
It's no surprise that few media outlets are covering this meta point. pic.twitter.com/UTQfeaS5wi
3. The Aging Population Crisis
— George Mack (@george__mack) July 13, 2023
70% of countries are below the required population replacement levels.
You need a 2.1 fertility rate to maintain a population:
• US = 1.64
• Germany = 1.53
• Japan = 1.34
• China = 1.28
• Korea (image below) = 0.84 pic.twitter.com/xYbdKAUQcQ

Why? pic.twitter.com/w0WTFF1jY5
6. The Rise Of The BRICS
— George Mack (@george__mack) July 13, 2023
• BRICS = Brazil, Russia, India, China, SA (+ Bangladesh, Egypt and UAE)

In 2022, it was 8.5x the average salary pic.twitter.com/cyBjI4EUeP
10. The Lost Lockdown Generation
— George Mack (@george__mack) July 13, 2023
• Reading ability in the USA is the lowest in 30 years
• Maths scores are the worst since tests began in 1969

This has been swept under the rug. pic.twitter.com/m5JaNetYDR
11. The Homeschooling Boom
— George Mack (@george__mack) July 13, 2023
In 1971, 78,000 kids were homeschooled in America.

Why is homeschooling booming? pic.twitter.com/zVp0iJav85
12. Male Testosterone Levels Plummeting:

The airline industry might be humans most profound achievement to date pic.twitter.com/GaKguUlE5k
20. Japan's Homeless Rate
— George Mack (@george__mack) July 13, 2023
Why does Japan have so few homeless?

Either way -- it's an important question that few are exploring. pic.twitter.com/VnfD2jrTDW
21. The Video Game Industry Is Bigger Than You Think

23. The Great Tech Neglect
— George Mack (@george__mack) July 13, 2023
The UK government recently posted a job for the Head of Cyber Security -- at £57K per year.
Contrast this with Singapore which pays politicians $750K per year (arguably a less important job) pic.twitter.com/ESdsYtCO5T
24. The Rise Of The Leveraged Individual
— George Mack (@george__mack) July 13, 2023
There's no such thing as "mainstream media" anymore
Instead, there is "legacy media" & "new media"
The only thing that gives the "mainstream media" power is the legacy language of "mainstream media"
This is the Emperor's New Clothes pic.twitter.com/QbdKQEqGEf
• When it comes to new media, faces & personalities are outranking brands.
— George Mack (@george__mack) July 13, 2023
• Branding in marketing started in the 1500's.
