Hey there friend so today I want to talk to you about my transparency page.
So I just added a new page to my website can't see Dodds.com slashtransparency and I created this website or this page after I was thinkingabout something over the last few days about actually started withclubhouse.So actually, you know, what even before Covas I've always really been
concerned about the incentives of companies. And how messed up incentivescan give us companies that will pollute the planet and sell users.Data Andso if you have the right incentives and you know like for example a companythat includes the planet needs to pay for the cost of cleaning thatpollution up if that were to be the case then we would not have nearly theproblem that we have now.And so just getting an incentives aligned in in the right way can solve a
lot of problems. However regulation isn't there yet and and I don't know ifit ever will be and I'm not here to talk about politics or anything. Butincentives are important and so as consumers we should be thinking abouttheIncentives of the companies that we consume or the companies that wesupport.And so with clubhouse recently I was thinking about well, we don't know how
they make money and so I'm unsure whether I want to really support thembecause we don't know how they make money. I realize that I do interact onTwitter and they make the way they make their money is something.I don't necessarily agree with either but that's a decide the point.
Anyway, I'm interested in.In understanding at least where companies makemoney and I feel like and this is what I tweeted the other day I feel likeevery company should have a page that describes how they make money and ifthey don't make money yet and they're just like burning through VC funds orsomething then they should explain what they what their plan is for makingmoney eventually and if they don't know then they should at least tell uswhether they're going to turn their users into the product or if they'regoing to sell a product to their users.And so as I was thinking about this and I said, every company should have a
page like this, I realize oh I have a company. I guess I could make aA pagelike this and so I did and this that's what the transparency pages. It'sall about helping you get an idea of what my incentives are.So that when you're supporting me you understand where what you are
actually supporting. And so go ahead and go take a look at it. I also breakdown like where my money comes from who pays for the things that I'mselling and and then what I do with that money as well.So go ahead and take a look at that page and I hope you have a spectacular
awesome day. Bye.
