Hi, I'm Raza. I've spent 15 years in finance and tech, but every playbook I knew is now dead. AI is changing everything, and as a dad of 4, I'm terrified. If you want to survive what's coming, do one thing:

Most financial advice is either: "Cut out your $5 lattes" (useless) or "Just start a business bro" (terrifying) We built something in between. A clear map showing exactly where you are and what move gets you to the next level.

If you've ever been rejected by > your bank for a loan > credit card provider > your landlord > the ATM (insufficient funds) > your crush (who's dating someone with equity) It's a sign, but not a bad one. Maybe it's because you were broke. Or maybe not. But if it is, we built something for you. Open Economy OS helps you understand exactly where you stand financially and what moves get you to the next level.

Your bank doesn't pay you interest. That's not pessimism. For most people, it's just true. 🧵

Hot take? Maybe. But I agree with Patrick and appreciate his out of the box thinking.

Less than 24h in and 5,000 ppl took the Open Economy OS assessment They took the first step toward understanding where they stand financially. > 34% are at L3 (control) - the most common result > 65% at L3 or below (stability and under) > only 8% reached L5/L6 (abundance/freedom) Knowing where you are is the first step to getting where you want to be.
