What I'm doing now

This is what I would tell you if you were to ask what I was working on.

Summer 2024, I’m spending my time on these things:

  • I'm very happy that my fintech company, NestEgg, has reached some nice milestones this year including: saving UK individuals over £50 million in high cost credit, decisioning over £1 billion in loan applications and growing the team to 12, all full-time, fully remote.
  • Still trying (still failing!) to find more time to write (here on my personal blog/newsletter).
  • No longer taking on private clients re growth consulting. For now at least, I'm continuing to focus on NestEgg.
  • Listening to about a book per month and keeping up with a core group of podcasts.
  • Finding it really hard to engage with social media the last year or so. That said, Bluesky looks interesting - feel free to connect over there.
  • Almost every morning after tai chi, I do some form of cardio followed by 20-minutes meditation. I use Sam Harris' Waking Up app which I could not recommend highly enough. DM me if you want an invite code for a month's free access.
  • Doing resistance training 2 to 3 times a week for muscle mass - supposed to be good for sometime of my, ahem, age.

This update, August 2024. I’ll update this page again when my activities or priorities change.

Disclosure: I got the idea for doing this page from the wonderful Derek Sivers
