Millionaires Are Looking for Friends Too
In September, we launched a project we'd been working on since last year: The Backstage Circle (TBC), a private membership community for accomplished entrepreneurs and investors.
Our first gathering took place in Phuket. There were 18 of us in total, including my amazing team, Qi and Rob. We talked about life and business, had a lot of fun, and met a local billionaire.
The core value of TBC is its people. Every member is carefully selected: highly successful at what they do, open-minded, and, just as importantly, a genuinely good person (we even had a “no assholes” policy when screening candidates haha).
But something surprised me.
People at this level are incredibly focused on their businesses (which is one of the reasons they're so successful). Yet they're also looking for something else: deep, meaningful relationships, genuine friendships, and people they can truly trust.
After our Phuket gathering, I sat down to articulate the purpose of TBC. Here's what I came up with:
Our Purpose:
To help accomplished people make deliberate choices about their next chapter in life or business through trusted peers, real-world insights, and shared experiences.
Ultimately, it comes down to three main benefits for our members:
1. Better people around you
2. Better decisions, knowledge, and opportunities
3. People who know you well enough to challenge you over time
When I finished writing all this, I realized that we're building something truly powerful.
And I'm incredibly happy about it.
Towards the end of this year, we'll open applications for our second TBC cohort. You can already register your interest in joining.

Europe vs Asia
A bit of rambling about my 2.5 weeks in Europe. I visited quite a few cities across different countries and just wanted to share some thoughts on Europe vs Asia and how I see them today.

More than half a million views in just 2 weeks, with most of the audience coming from Singapore.
If you're interested, I can share how we made this video, why I think it became such a hit in Singapore, and how much money we made from it. lmk
