I want to talk to you about
Mutual sharing of the best tactics and strategies to source great deals (especially with everyone all over the place geographically)
Talking with others about my emerging thesis around age tech. There is a massive market opportunity to serve the older populations (X, boomers, and silent generation) and enable them through innovations to live great lives in their later years. These generations control most of the wealth and are living longer and healthier
