A little update on Chautauqua 🦄⚡️
Sharky has been receiving treatment for melanomas, which are quite common in grey horses. The good news is he’s responding really well and continuing to take everything in his stride.
A big thank you to the team at University of Melbourne Werribee Equine Centre for their expert care. His treatment has included surgery to remove some of the larger melanomas, as well as targeted chemotherapy injections into others.
He’s also now on a course of a new vaccine, representing one of the latest advances in melanoma management.
We’d also like to recognise Living Legends’ veterinary nurse Molly Stewart, whose skill, dedication and calm approach to Sharky’s post-surgical care have been exceptional. She’s built a lovely rapport with him, which has made a real difference.
It’s fantastic to see the continued growth and revitalisation of the Equine Centre under the leadership of Prof. Simon Bailey and his team, and their commitment to delivering high-quality care while supporting the next generation of equine veterinarians.

A #question that my young son often asks me in amazement is- "How do the iconic creators of this world- Bill Gates, Nikola Tesla, Steve Jobs, Leonardo Da Vinci, etc come up with so many great ideas?"
To which I always reply with a reassurance that nothing is impossible. It's important that in his quest to be an original, he realizes two key things-
⛔ Learning to embrace failures before achieving greatness.
📈 Relentless drive to achieve perfection.
To lay the seeds of greatness, you always start young!

RIP Charlie Munger
Charlie Munger. Ever heard of him?
He's the guy who went from rags to riches. Built an empire.
And he did it with Warren Buffett.
Want to know how?
THREAD 🧵 2 min read
1/ Charlie wasn't born rich. Nope.
He was just a kid when the Great Depression hit. Had to work hard just to get by.
Even worked at Buffett's family grocery store. Twelve-hour days. For $2.
2/ But Charlie had brains. And ambition.
He got into the University of Michigan. Studied math.
Then WWII came. Charlie joined up. Became a meteorologist.
Smart guy? You bet. The military saw his high IQ.
3/ After the war, Charlie hit the books again.
Went to Harvard Law School. Became a lawyer.
But life threw punches. Divorce. His son's illness.
It drained his savings. Made him think about wealth differently.
4/ Charlie decided owning businesses was key to wealth.
He invested in a small company. Even borrowed money to do it.
It was tough. He had to downsize. But he learned. Saw what worked.
5/ Then came real estate.
Charlie saw L.A.'s potential. People were flocking there.
He invested. And boom. A 400% return on a $100,000 investment.
6/ Even with millions from real estate, Charlie kept his day job.
He was cautious. Didn't want to risk it all.
But he stopped after five projects. Why?
He had a new game plan.
7/ Charlie teamed up with Buffett.
They took over Blue Chip Stamps. Invested in See's Candies.
Faced down copycats. Grew the business.
And Berkshire Hathaway? It became a powerhouse.
8/ But every empire has its limits.
Berkshire Hathaway is huge. Hard to find new places to invest.
But Charlie and Warren? They adapt.
They expanded their "circle of competence" to tech giants like Apple and Amazon.
9/ Charlie Munger's life? It's a masterclass in business.
From physics to law to real estate to investing.
He's seen it all. Done it all.
That's the story of Charlie Munger. A tale of grit, brains, and the pursuit of wealth. Not just for himself, but for his family and beyond.
Remember, it's not about where you start. It's about where you're going. And how hard you're willing to work to get there.

LOVED sharing my experiences with @CoachPatSummit with our @GSCoachEd students this morning. Her legacy is so much more than the 8 National Championships, Olympic medals, Halls of Fame, Medal of Freedom, or 1098 wins!
