Colin came in from fishing. Wheeler was trying to buy Olivia Rodrigo tickets mid-recording. They still got through a packed week.The Road to Housing Act passed with bipartisan support — a bill to cut red tape on home construction and limit corporate ownership of residential properties. Then the president refused to sign it, tying it to a separate voter ID bill. Wheeler and Colin get into why builders are financially incentivized to build expensive homes over affordable ones, and how badly the math has shifted. A starting advisor ten years ago earned $50K with homes around $400K. Today that same job pays $60K. Those same homes are $900K.Portsmouth attorney and former congressional candidate Justin Nadeau was sentenced to seven and a half to fifteen years for stealing from a client who had suffered a traumatic brain injury. The takeaway: a designation doesn't make someone the right person for you — in law, finance, or healthcare.Women face disproportionate risk if Social Security gets cut — not because the headline says so, but because the math backs it up. Women receive lower monthly benefits than men but collect longer due to longevity. The structural problem: women who step back from the workforce to raise children are financially penalized by a system built entirely around hours worked. About 14% of retired Americans rely on Social Security entirely. Roughly a quarter have it making up more than 75% of their retirement income.The GLP-1 market is having a Big Short moment. Colin noticed the lineup at the American Diabetes Association conference in New Orleans and it reminded him of the Vegas conference scene — a year ago nobody cared, now every drug company is flooding in. Injectables, pills, and probably a powder coming soon. What makes GLP-1s interesting is that they appear to solve one problem — appetite satiation — that then cascades into improvements across addiction, heart health, and metabolic function.A Nomura chart tracking combined free cash flow across five hyperscalers — Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Meta, Oracle — tells the story of the AI buildout better than most headlines. Free cash flow grew from $50 billion in 2012 to over $300 billion. It is now projected to hit zero by year-end. The debate it opens up: Chamath's "spend through zero now, earn it back later" versus Kai Wu's "asset-light was the whole thesis." Nvidia and Micron are being rewarded. Most hyperscalers aren't. Apple isn't in the chart at all — which might be exactly the right place to be.They close on robotics. Elon's $20K household robot. Nvidia in the space. VC funding at record levels. Colin is skeptical — it feels like EVTOLs, early and overhyped. His mom just moved to assisted living and would never trust a robot nurse. Wheeler's counterpoint: nobody trusted driverless cars fifteen years ago either. The investor answer is probably what it always is: big companies acquire whoever wins, and you don't have to pick early to benefit.Sources:Why Women May Bear the Brunt If Social Security Gets Cut — USA TodayPortsmouth Lawyer Justin Nadeau Sentenced to Prison — SeacoastonlineGLP-1 Competition Heats Up: Oral Pills, New Entrants, and Price Compression — BioPharma Dive / Reuters / CNBCRobotics Startups Are Having a Moment — VC Funding Hits Records — CryptoRank / RoboZapsHousing Forecasts Revised Down Again — NAR / Realtor.comGlobal Tech Selloff: Nasdaq Futures -3%, Chips Routed — CNBC / ReutersFollow Us:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/compoundgrowthpod YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CompoundGrowthPodcastTikTok: http://www.tiktok.com/@compoundgrowthpod Wheeler’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/wheeler-crowley-0a63933b/ Colin’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/colin-walker-mba-6099a038/Credits:Created By: Wheeler Crowley and Colin WalkerProduction, Editing and Post-Production: Tori Rothwell
