The key to a $1.3T opportunity

A new trend in real estate is making the most expensive properties obtainable. It’s called co-ownership, and it’s revolutionizing the $1.3T vacation home market.

The company leading the trend? Pacaso. Created by the founder of Zillow, Pacaso turns underutilized luxury properties into fully-managed assets and makes them accessible to the broadest possible market.

The result? More than $1b in transactions, 2,000+ happy homeowners, and over $110m in gross profits for Pacaso.

With rapid international growth and 41% gross profit growth last year, Pacaso is ready for what’s next. They even recently reserved the Nasdaq ticker PCSO.

But the real opportunity is now, before public markets. Until 5/29, you can join leading investors like SoftBank and Maveron for just $2.80/share.

This is a paid advertisement for Pacaso’s Regulation A offering. Please read the offering circular at invest.pacaso.com. Reserving a ticker symbol is not a guarantee that the company will go public. Listing on the NASDAQ is subject to approvals. Under Regulation A+, a company has the ability to change its share price by up to 20%, without requalifying the offering with the SEC.

Your Future Roommate Might Not Be Human

Remember when robots were just sci-fi fantasies? Well, buckle up because that future just crashed into 2025 with the force of a freight train.

Jensen Huang from Nvidia just called it: humanoid robotics is about to become the next multi-trillion-dollar industry. Not million. Not billion. Trillion. With a T. And honestly, after digging into what's happening right now, I'm starting to think he's being conservative.

Here's what nobody's talking about yet.

The 36-Hour Miracle That Changes Everything

While everyone was arguing about ChatGPT, Nvidia quietly did something that should terrify and excite you in equal measure. They built their latest robot brain, GR00T N1.5, in just 36 hours. The previous version took three months.

Let that sink in for a second. Three months to 36 hours. That's not incremental improvement, that's the kind of exponential leap that reshapes civilizations.

But here's the really wild part - they're doing it with something they call GR00T-Dreams. Give it a single photo of a robot doing something, and it generates entire training videos of that robot mastering new skills in environments it's never seen. It's like having an imagination, but for machines.

Boston Dynamics, Agility Robotics, even the massive Foxlink manufacturing empire - they're all scrambling to integrate this technology. When giants move this fast, you know something big is coming.

The Disney Guy Who's Building Your New Best Friend

Now here's where things get interesting. Scott LaValley used to build the Atlas robot at Boston Dynamics - you know, the one that does backflips and makes you question everything. Then he went to Disney and worked on Baby Groot.

What do you get when you combine military-grade robotics with Disney magic? Apparently, a robot named Yogi that looks like a toddler and is designed to love you back.

LaValley's new company, Cartwheel Robotics, isn't building worker bots. They're building companion bots. Robots that recognize your emotions, learn your quirks, and adapt their entire personality to make you happy. They're considering a subscription model - imagine paying $200 a month for a robot friend that never judges you, never gets tired of your stories, and always wants to hang out.

This isn't about replacing human connection. It's about filling the gaps where human connection isn't available. Think elderly people aging alone, kids whose parents work three jobs, adults struggling with social anxiety. Yogi isn't competing with your friends - he's there when your friends can't be.

Tesla's Robot Just Took Out The Trash (And Nobody Taught It How)

While everyone was watching Tesla's stock price, their Optimus robot quietly learned to do your chores. Not programmed - learned. By watching YouTube videos of humans doing household tasks.

Last month, Optimus took out the trash, vacuumed the living room, and stirred soup on the stove. All on its own. No scripts, no predetermined movements. It watched, learned, and figured it out.

The implications are staggering. Every mundane task you hate doing? Every chore that eats into your weekend? Your future self might look back at manual dishwashing the way we look back at hand-washing clothes.

The Underground Revolution You Haven't Heard About

While the big names grab headlines, something fascinating is happening in labs and workshops around the world. High schoolers are building robotic snakes to protect endangered salamanders. Johns Hopkins created a robot surgeon that can stitch better than human hands. Taiwan deployed nursing robots because they're facing a critical shortage of human nurses.

This isn't one breakthrough. It's an avalanche of breakthroughs happening simultaneously across every sector that touches human life.

Why This Matters More Than You Think

We're not just looking at better technology. We're looking at the possibility of solving some of humanity's biggest problems. Labor shortages in critical industries. Dangerous jobs that kill and injure thousands every year. The loneliness epidemic that's quietly destroying mental health across the globe.

But here's what really gets me excited - and maybe a little nervous. We're approaching the point where the line between human and artificial companionship starts to blur. When a robot can recognize your mood better than your spouse, respond to your needs faster than your friends, and never have a bad day that affects how it treats you, what happens to human relationships?

Maybe we get the best of both worlds. Maybe human connections become more precious because we're not depending on them to fill every emotional need. Maybe robots handle the mundane stuff so humans can focus on the meaningful stuff.

Or maybe I'm being naive, and we're about to find out what happens when an entire generation grows up with artificial best friends.

The Clock Is Ticking

Here's what I know for sure: this revolution isn't coming. It's here. Right now. The question isn't whether humanoid robots will change everything - it's whether you'll be ready when they do.

Some of these robots will be in homes by the end of 2025. Not prototypes. Not demonstrations. Actual working robots that real people can buy and live with.

The future is arriving faster than anyone predicted, and it's going to be stranger and more wonderful than anyone imagined.

This stuff is moving so fast it's hard to keep up. If this blew your mind even a little, do me a favor and share it with someone who needs to see it. And hit me back - I want to know what you think. Are you excited? Terrified? Ready to pre-order your robot buddy? Let me know.
