A billionaire just told me this and its terrifying

Happy Thursday mf

Get this:

Had dinner with a billionaire last night.

Not influencer-rich.

Not flex-on-TikTok rich.

Real fucking money.

Basically invented half the app store we know today…

White hair. A little overweight.

Calm, like nothing could rush him...

Mf spoke like time was on his payrol.

Every sentence hit like it had been practiced a thousand times.

We talked about AI.

Where money’s going.

Where power’s already shifted.

And then mid way through my 4th pizza slice with cheese dripping down my hands

He went”

“You’ve got 4.5 years left to get rich.

After that? It’s game over.”

“What the fuck?” I thought.

What does that even mean?

Is that real, or just billionaire talk?

But he kept going.

Didn’t smile. Didn’t blink.

“The window’s open now. Tools are accessible. Attention’s cheap.

But in a few years?

The doors close.

And only the ones already inside will get to stay rich.

Everyone else?

Good luck.”

And he wasn’t being dramatic.

He was calm.

Certain.

Like a man who already watched it play out, and was just warning you before it hits.

He said most people will miss the wave because they’re still waiting to feel ready.

Still “trying to figure it out.”

Still playing when they should be building.

“Eventually doesn’t exist anymore,” he said.

“You move now. Or you disappear later.”

So if you’ve been dragging your feet…

This is your wake…up call.

Because the tools are here.

The traffic is here.

The opportunities are here.

But they won’t be for long.

You’ve got 4.5 years. 20 fucking 30.

Use them.

Or watch someone dumber and braver take what should’ve been yours.

Move.

Launch.

Build.

Pitch.

Sell.

Repeat.

You don’t need motivation.

You need momentum.

You need pressure.

And neither should you.

Get after it.

(btw… he was Jewish too. make of that what you will.)
