A different distraction
My phone recently told me my average view time for the past week. Usually I avoid looking at it, as it can be a sobering experience. Not this time. It hasn’t been under four hours for probably years, but it’s now closer to three. I was pleasantly surprised, but I shouldn’t have been. An infant…

True-done
Justin Trudeau stepped down today after 10 years in charge. It’s been coming. I can’t say I know a lot about him, but it was definitely the right decision. Like many democracies, governments are rarely voted in; rather, they’re voted out, and Mr Trudeaus’ had overstayed his visit. It takes a long time for historians…

Ups and Downs
Today I had a bad call. Google called me up and said that my account had been compromised, and that a hacker had tried to change my password. Weird, sure, but to make it worse, they had used my Social Security Number to try and break through. So it looks like my identity is at…

Year 2
Today is my second wedding anniversary with Ky, so a very special day. It was also freezing, and Occi has been a bit of a handful recently, so it was a quiet affair. We went to our favourite cafe for brunch, and had a lovely dinner as well. In between we went to Costco. The…

Goal #1: Cold Showers
I’ll throw you a bone, Goal Seekers. On the list of the things I am trying to achieve this year, one of them is to do series of monthly challenges. Like in the software world, it is a wise idea to iterate quickly, seeing what works and what doesn’t. Trying a new habit, lifestyle, or…

A day in the life of…
The past few days, I have been living the VC life. And not the glamorous side of it either, ripping my Juul pod while rocking my Patagonia vest and All-Birds while offering generic advice to anyone who will listen. No, the past 48 hours has been deep in DD, Due Diligence. Venture Capital is misunderstood,…

Why I started this blog
I don’t really use Social Media anymore; I’m too young for Facebook, too old for SnapChat, too normie for Discord and too boring for Instagram. While this buys me back time and peace of mind, it means that it can sometimes be difficult to share my life with my friends and family outside of phone calls and in-person meetups. As I live overseas, this can be a difficulty.
With this in mind, and inspired my friend Dan Cullum (check out his fantastic site HERE), I have started a daily blog. Not only will I be able to share my ideas, news, and stories to friends and family, but it serves as a time capsule as I move through life. In the future, I look forward to seeing how my views, opinions, and ideas change over time. At the very least, it is an exercise in discipline, and may be of interest to my descendants at some time in the future.
While I imagine most followers of this blog will be friends and family, all are welcome to subscribe. Feel free to email at harry@harrywetherall.com, I reply to every message, and would love to hear from you.
