To me, the most exciting thing in all of this is: we used D&B in a marketing campaign.
Access granted. Welcome to FISCAL MANIA. We built our own video game with one mission: defeating busy work. In the real world, operational drag is missing receipts, endless approval chains, and finance teams trapped playing defense against their own tools. @brexHQ breaks the tradeoff between speed and control, letting AI agents handle the manual grind. We gamified the challenge so you can clear the drag yourself. Access the lore. Play the demo. Live play coming soon. fiscalmania.brex.com

San Francisco's latest walking tour takes people past cats in windows, and apparently, the demand is enormous. Nearly 100 people gathered Saturday for a neighborhood “catwalk,” a free afternoon stroll past the homes of local cats, all volunteered by their owners for a moment in the spotlight. The cats, by all accounts booked and busy, had become local celebrities without lifting a paw. Organizer Lora Lafon told SFGATE the idea began with a Reddit thread inspired by a similar event in Minneapolis. More than 50 households across San Francisco signed up, and interest quickly outgrew what a single afternoon could accommodate. The inaugural walk was capped at 100 people, leaving another 406 on the waitlist and 388 more expressing interest. “We're such a big dog city (love dogs too) that it's been really sweet to see how proud the cat owners are when people stop to admire their babies in the window,” Lafon said. Fortunately for the city's aspiring cat admirers, more walks are in the works, both in San Francisco and potentially across the Bay Area.

Not surprised to see a short-sighted, hot take hustle culture take come out of capitalist-pilled, americanized Dutch culture. The point being missed here is the creation of leverage. As a parent, you can create leverage with various economies: time, money, support, etc.
Also I see this a lot If you live with your parents at 25 Like I know that's acceptable in some cultures, it definitely isn't acceptable in my culture (Dutch), nor is it acceptable to me as a person You should be leaving your parent's house at 18 and become independent, spread your wings and fly You'll never learn about the real world if you get pampered by mom and dad with free rent and free food So the reason you're not successful is, is maybe this, there's absolutely no incentive for you to become succesful, there's no urgency, you're just satisfied being complacent living in your parent's house Get out and spread your wings IMHO

And just to make it clear, this is an absolute best case scenario with limited resources; many people do not have the luxury of such a relation with your parents.

So instead of doing some black-and-white talking down to people because of what worked in someone's single reality, let's look at the mechanics behind it and find ways to support and build up one another as much as we can.

If you're at the intersection of managing your company's money, and being a nerd... go here.
Founders: not all “high yield” offers are created equal. Let’s talk about why floating NAV mutual funds and commercial paper are 🚩 for your treasury – and why Brex Treasury is built different. Warning: it's about to get nerdy up in here 🤓

This new beta is now available to any single-entity company on Brex. You can turn it on on top of the Accounts page, or in Settings! We're actively working on bringing the same quality of upgrade to multi-entity—and will launch that soon as well.

As a design industry, we have often been taught that there is a single great—or "perfect"—solution. Realistically, what we have become is creators of one-size-fits-all software, gatekeeping people's abilities to make the tools work for them.

Throughout my time at Brex, it has become very clear that companies have a million different preferences in how they want to run their finances. While we have a strong vision of how a company can best run their finances, we want to meet our customers where they are.
