6 Things Thursday 💌

Hi there!

Here's another microdose of interesting things I enjoyed this week--written by me, Raad—CEO of LawTrades.


1. A song we’re playing 🎵
Money In The Grave (Drake ft. Rick Ross)
Apple Music / YouTube / Spotify

Usually on repeat after every six-figure deal we close. My favorite line:

You could DM my accountant
My per diem six figures and I'm countin'
Nine figures was the goal' til I hit it
These ***** ain't livin', so bury mine with me


2. An event we're hosting at the office 🏢
Legal Basics For Startups
Understand the basic legal concepts behind venture financing before talking to investors. Meet the LawTrades team IRL, eat pizza, and drink rosé.


3. A podcast I started 🎙️
Ep. 0 - How To Gain Leverage On Quora - Raad Podcast (YouTube)
Short thoughts on startups, happiness, and life. Subscribe on wherever you listen.


4. An article I read 👓
Shopify and the Power of Platforms


5. A peek at a new product idea 🖊️
Behind The Screens: Contract Library 2 (YouTube)
Create, sign, and send legally binding agreements on the blockchain.


6. A quote I’m pondering 🇯🇵
“Curiosity can bring guts out of hiding at times, maybe even get them going. But curiosity usually evaporates. Guts have to go for the long haul. Curiosity’s like a fun friend you can’t really trust. It turns you on and then it leaves you to make it on your own—with whatever guts you can muster.”

—Haruki Murakami



Have a mindful week!
