It’s easy to say, “prioritize work life balance” — when you already have a good life. It’s easy to say, “prioritize a good night’s sleep” — when you’ve already made enough money today. It’s easy to say, “prioritize diet and exercise” — when you have someone else cooking you a nutritious meal and a new Tesla parked in the garage, waiting for you to drive to the gym.

How to Achieve Decentralized Scale: ETH vs BTC vs ALGO

Facebook, Google, Amazon. Everybody seems to be out to get your data. No wonder, monetising data is a massive business that propelled centralised data controllers to the market cap stratosphere. But what do you get for giving away your data? A “free” service, if you are lucky, and a breakdown of democracy if you are fresh out of luck.

I have a background in electricity, from when I was an investment banker. I worked in a Natural Resources &amp; Power group for about 8 years and modelled electricity systems and assets in the UK and China in the context of acquisitions, capital raisings, restructurings, and regulatory submissions. One of the banks that I worked for was HSBC, in their emerging markets M&amp;A team, and I know China well. The models, created in groups, were used to support perhaps $4–5 billion equivalent of transactions, including public tender offers, acquisition finance, syndicated loans, and bond sales. The only time I went back to my old business school for course work was for modules offered by Decision Sciences, one of which was an in-depth power systems dynamics course. The financial models were built using @Risk statistical software to apply a distribution shape to inputs. When I left investment banking, I purchased (with partners) an electricity business in Italy that had eight run-of-river hydro plants and two CCGT facilities.
