Elon Musk Wants OpenAI

The Rise of Deep Seek

Goldman Sachs Ditches Diversity

NZ Property Market Heating Up

Billionaire Drama at Soho House

China’s Marriage Crisis

Thank you for listening!

Financial Disclaimer

Elon Musk wants to buy OpenAI for a casual $98 billion - but Sam Altman basically replied with “lol, no.” Meanwhile, the NZ property market might be heating up, which is either thrilling or terrifying depending on your bank balance. Over at Goldman Sachs, they’ve decided diversity efforts are just too hard (insert dramatic eye roll), and Soho House is in the middle of a billionaire tug-of-war that’s juicier than a reality TV finale. Also on the agenda: China’s marriage rates are plummeting, and with fewer weddings come fewer babies - leaving the government scrambling to play matchmaker with housing perks and incentives, but Gen Z seems more interested in financial security than fairy tales.
