📢 Announcements
The 1% Bet for Longevity-- a website initiative. Building on my newsletter last week and a suggestion from one of my readers, Matthew Busel, I have launched the 1% Bet for Longevity. The initiative seeks to convince as many people as possible to publicly promise to commit at least 1% of their net worth towards funding longevity biotechnology companies or research. Longevity biotechnology holds the potential for incredible upside. And yet despite this much less than 1% of the $400T total global wealth has been directed towards longevity.
I want to change this --and I am going to start by leading by example. You can stand up for longevity too by going to the website onepercentbet.org and submitting your name on the form. Your name will be added to the public list of signatories after moderation.
Isn’t more life worth more betting on? Spread the word.PS: I have a Patreon account. My mission is to grow a wave of passionate people building, funding, and championing technologies that extend healthy human lifespan. If you believe in me, my work, and my mission please consider supporting.
