Did you know?

Coffee is cultivated in tropical regions, roughly 20 degrees north and south of the Equator.
The vast majority of coffee (90%) is grown in developing countries.
Brazil is the world’s largest producer of coffee, exporting over a third of the global supply.
70% of all coffee is produced by small family farmers who have fewer than 25 acres of land.
The average coffee farmer earns just $300/year from coffee production, making it difficult (if not impossible) to survive without additional sources of income.

Pioneering a New Wave of Night Riding | Garret & Dakota Porter, ActionGlow | Economic Club of TC

As teenagers, the Porter brothers came up with an idea that would soon flip the action sports industry on its head. The idea to put LED lights on our snowboards came to them one evening when they were about to drop in on a dark ski slope. They wondered what it would feel like to shred through fresh powder or launch a hanging 360 with LED snowboards and dreamed about being the inventors of a pro...

    Thank you for putting it in simple terms like this. It’s frankly disgusting and I feel like going to college will never be worth it for me or anyone my age unless you’re doing an expensive degree that somehow guarantees a high paying job. Even then, it’s almost impossible to get jobs in your field right out of college.

    I actually like your approach to tackle this global problem. As a German I always think that our German goverment is working with much too many restrictions. That's not the way how you get everyone in the boat to change your life!

    5% annual income growth is an unrealistic expectation to justify home buying. Given that the market leaders (MSFT, GOOGL, GS, etc.) have all announced freezes or cuts, there is zero reason to believe people's incomes will grow, much less grow at 5%. Wage growth might happen in the lower 25% of earners, but they aren't purchasing homes anyways.

    Excellent presentation Ben. Any time that you can bring Hans Gruber and John Oliver into a subject that could be tedious shows that you not only have mastered the information but know how to communicate as well! -- Looking forward to seeing you do more public appearances.
