Bill Gates has consistently framed his association with Jeffrey Epstein as a “huge mistake,” claiming he naively believed the convicted sex offender could help advance global health philanthropy—an aspiration that never materialized. In interviews with The Wall Street Journal, Gates described his behavior as “foolish,” emphasized that he had no personal or business relationship with Epstein, and cut off contact by 2014. He lamented granting Epstein credibility by being seen with him, calling it one of the worst judgment calls of his life.Yet critics remain unconvinced. The repeated denial of substance—despite documented visits to Epstein's Manhattan townhouse, including one with his wife—smacks of damage control, not candor. The aftermath of the revelation played a key role in his divorce, and even public figures like Elon Musk have ridiculed Gates's moral credibility, saying he wouldn't trust him to babysit his own children. Gates's repeated invocation of “mistake” now feels like a defensive script designed to deflect deeper scrutiny rather than a genuine reckoningto contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:New photo shows Bill Gates posing with Epstein accuser years after his 2008 conviction: report (nypost.com)

Click here now to access the tool > How to Grow a Business You Love by Serving the Right People at the Right Value Does it ever seem like you're giving everything to your business, yet the success you pictured still feels just out of reach? In this episode of The Brilliant Book Festival, I'm joined by Mike Michalowicz, author of nine business books including Profit First and The Pumpkin Plan, to explore how entrepreneurs can escape what he calls “entrepreneurial poverty” and create a business that runs smoothly, profitably and in alignment with their strengths. Mike shares why the secret to growth isn't serving everyone, but identifying the right clients, pricing in a way that reflects your true value, and letting go of the rest (without guilt). We talk about why bad-fit clients drain more than your bank account, how to attract people who value what you offer, and why you should always love yourself enough to charge what you're worth. If you've been caught in the cycle of over-delivering, undercharging, and feeling too stretched to serve your best clients well, this conversation will help you see a simpler, more sustainable path forward - one that makes space for better clients, better work and a better life. Prefer to WATCH instead of read? Click here to watch this episode on YouTube “Price is the ultimate marketing method. It tells the world how valuable you believe your work is.” – Mike Michalowicz Why Pricing is More Than a Number Most entrepreneurs fear raising prices, but as Mike explains, pricing isn't just about covering costs. It's a signal to the market about the quality and impact of your work. When you charge appropriately, you attract clients who align with your value, and you create the capacity to serve them at your best. Letting Go of the Wrong Clients It's tempting to hold on to every paying client, but the wrong ones cost far more than they contribute. Mike shares strategies for identifying unfit clients, and how to release them in a way that's professional, kind, and freeing - making space for your business to grow in the right direction. “Your best business will always grow from your best clients. Focus there, and create more space for them to thrive with you.” – Mike Michalowicz The Three Questions that Unlock Growth Mike offers three simple but powerful questions to ask your best clients, questions that reveal what makes you stand out, how you can differentiate yourself from the industry, and where to find more people just like them. From “Doing it All” to Designing a Business that Runs Without You We discuss the trap of the “superhero entrepreneur” who tries to do everything themselves, and why true leadership means designing a business that thrives without your constant presence. Mike explains how he tests this by taking a four-week (sometimes seven-week) annual vacation, and how it's made his business stronger. If you only take one thing away from this episode… Your best business will come from your best clients. Focus on them, price in alignment with your value, and give your business the space it needs to grow - without burning yourself out. Final Thought to Reflect On?

Send us a text"Connection isn't new, it's just neglected. And it's neglected now more than ever." These powerful words from Wall Street Journal bestselling author Ryan Jenkins set the stage for a transformative conversation about what might be our most critical yet overlooked human need.Despite our hyperconnected world of social media, texting, and endless digital communication, genuine connection continues to slip through our fingers.

He emphasizes that connection is often neglected despite being a fundamental human need.
