200-Word Summary:

(Text me at 512-653-9872.)

I raised $3.15m at 17yo.

I solo-founded stationmountain.com and co-founded cased.us.

Now, I’m building Instadevelopment: 

A movement to permanently eliminate all inescapable poverty across an entire developing country (in under 3 years) by investing more money than its GDP into its foundations (industrial businesses, financial systems, governance, locally contracted infrastructure, etc.).

Months 1-4:

Build a website – mainly a core 70,000-word book – about Instadevelopment. Gather ~$300k, a small full-time team, and ultra-credible contributing authors.

Launch it. Accumulate numerous high-profile accolades. Make it legitimately ubiquitous and tenable.

Personally: Sell my bike park for $3.75m. Scale Cased. Work in Africa. Boost my personal brand and network.

Months 5-14:

Raise ~$20m for a pilot project (~10k person area) in Africa.

Build a larger world-class team. Endlessly research intensively. Build the framework. Get an MOU.

Break ground within 10 months.

Continually scale Cased towards exit.

Post-pilot:

Blitzscale (e.g. $200m pilot projects, political networking) into the 5-year goal:

Raise billions to Instadevelop a nation.

Why:

My life goal:

Maximally add good to the world.

Of all methods of maximally adding good, I firmly believe Instadevelopment is superiorly:

1) Cost-to-impact-effective
2) Counterfactual (otherwise wouldn't be done)
3) Actually root problem solving
4) Direct (not vaguely long-term)

Overall:

I shall:
Qualitatively master discerning things’ importance
Quantitatively grind doing important things
Leverage every lucky instance I get
Forever live frugally

High ambition lacks legitimacy without nitty-gritty details; I only expect credibility post-launch.
