Why I built CompoundingKids
When I was in my thirties, I discovered the writings of Naval Ravikant, Charlie Munger, and Warren Buffett. Their wisdom about thinking, decision-making, money, and life completely changed how I saw the world.
I wished I had learned these ideas when I was younger. I thought about all the mistakes I could have avoided, all the better decisions I could have made, all the clearer thinking I could have had.
Then I had my son, Liam. And I realized: I have a chance to give him what I didn't have. I could share these profound ideas with him while he's still young, in ways he could understand and remember.
So I started writing letters to him. Real letters, explaining big ideas in simple words. Letters I read to him at bedtime, letters that sparked conversations, letters that planted seeds.
These aren't theoretical exercises. These are the actual letters I write to my son, now shared with you. Every letter has been tested on a real kid, refined through real conversations, and proven to spark real curiosity.
If these ideas changed my life in my thirties, imagine what they could do for a child who learns them at seven.
