I used to measure my days by PnL.

Now I measure them by firsts.
- My daughter’s first time taking a new bus route in a new city.
- Her first friend in a kindergarten we might leave in weeks.
- Her first “Dad, let’s go to the library,” instead of “Dad, are you still working?”
None of these moments show up on a dashboard.
But they compound harder than most assets I’ve ever owned.
Markets taught me how to survive volatility.
Fatherhood taught me what deserves volatility.
You can recover from a bad quarter. You can’t recover a missed childhood season.
I still care about returns.
I just don’t confuse money with value anymore.
