“Learning to let go should be learned before learning to get. Life should be touched, not strangled. You’ve got to relax, let it happen at times, and at others move forward with it.” – Ray Bradbury 📷: talented @itstroyjensen

You know this jackass was sitting in traffic for too long revving it up over and over not even considering the exhaust system heat building up to extremes...funny video, but sad to see her fate at the end!! ;)

nxVenture Capital® Ltd, a New York City based private investment management firm with offices in Los Angeles, London, and Singapore, is launching a POV Blog (POV=Point-of-View). nxVenture Capital will be officially relaunching our website and updating social media sites started October 15, 2015 - nxVenture Capital is now officially a closed private investment management firm, which means we do not solicit investors, nor manage any outside investor capital. All of our investment funds and portfolios are capitalized by nxVenture Capital's own investment funds. This allows us to first off really partner with the companies and projects we invest in - after all, it's all our capital at stake, not a group of investors. It eliminates nxVenture Capital's need to comply with all the new and frankly arduous (keeping my language clean and trying to be as nice as possible!) regulations on even private equity and now hedge funds with investors and disclosures, capital reserve requirements, etc, etc. It also allows us to pretty much say whatever the hell we want here - if we aren't soliciting investment capital of ANY KIND, we don't have to sell ourselves as the best place to put your money in the recorded history of mankind. Instead, we intend for this blog to communicate very transparently and honestly our opinions and point-of-views on the most interesting financial and geopolitical topics going on. More from us after October 15th. Finally, a fun blog to tell it like it is!

In 2005, I wrote a Predictive Analysis Essay focused on what I simply termed The Digital Privacy Wars, a series of conflicts and serious engagements between the public and both private business sector as well as the Federal Government in particular. To this day it is one of the best papers I've ever written. It was long, extremely rich in detail, and backed by incredible research and long discussions with some of the best minds in Digital Media and Technology. It was written in a narrative storyline format to make it interesting while staying factual. It received rave reviews. I got very busy in 2005-2006 preparing to exit a partnership and launch a venture capital backed startup, so I didn't even take the offers from two publishers about a book deal stemming from my 70-page essay, nor did I really get to discuss it much in the media. Thank GOD. It was entirely wrong - by far and away the worst predictive research results I've ever concluded on. Everything was off. I say this because as I read this article, I still don't know how I was so far off. The amount of private information collected now with smartphones is overwhelming; I know our databases at our Direct Sales and Marketing Subsidiary is so enormous, we have a cloud-based supercomputer crunching up Big Data every day of the week. It's incredible what any advertiser, government agency or any business or individual can find out now. Big Data is Huge Money and the public truly doesn't seem to truly care at all even when informed in detail about it. So, I have ten years later my own firm's Research & Analysis Group working on a study on why I was so off. What fundamentally changed an issue that before ironically it was really a serious issue, would elicit strong emotional debates and opinions on the subject. Here we are ten years later with far more data being collected than I could have known would be in 2005 and no one gives a damn. Personally I was never fearful of it and, being in the Digital Media Industry segment then, was encouraging the industry as a whole to address the issue early before it broke out into my predicted Digital Privacy Wars. This has nothing to do with me personally issuing a rallying cry on the subject. Rather, I think something in American Society has fundamentally shifted and the issue is no longer that big a deal. I want to know why. Thoughts???
