    A $6BN Divorce With No Prenup + Kendall Jenner's Investing Playbook

    Lululemon's founder is getting divorced after 20+ years of marriage, and there's no prenup on a fortune worth over $6 billion. We get into what that means for his wife (one of the company's first employees and founding designer), especially as Lululemon posts its second dire quarter in a row and its stock hits an eight-year low. Then, Kendall Jenner just bought a stake in TRIP, the British calming drinks brand, adding to her tequila empire, and we unpack why celebrities are increasingly choosing equity over a paycheck.

    The Weekly: Worst Interest Rates Since 2008 & Shein Loses $5bn in a week.

    First up, government bond yields just hit levels not seen since the 2008 financial crisis, and the headlines are in full panic mode. Vic breaks down what a bond yield actually is, why investors are suddenly worried that governments around the world have overextended themselves, and why a "boring" corner of finance is about to hit your mortgage, your taxes, and your savings account. Then, Shein went public and lost $5 billion in value in its first week of trading, a brutal comedown from the $100 billion it was worth back in 2022. We unpack why the company's entire business model was built on a legal loophole, and the lesson every investor should take from watching that loophole finally close.

    A Side Hustle From Her Bedroom Floor Became an 8-Figure Business.

    Madi Stefanis started her business at 19 with one old film camera and a Facebook Marketplace listing. It sold for 5x the asking price, and that was the beginning of a side hustle that scaled to $70K a month from her bedroom floor, before turning into 35mm Co., a camera brand now sold in nearly every country in the world with over 100,000 units sold. This episode is a true side-hustle-to-global-business story: how Madi went from sourcing and reselling vintage cameras solo, to betting her entire house deposit on manufacturing her own product, to building an 8-figure company, all before turning 26. We get into the real mechanics of scaling a side hustle: how she decided when it was time to go all in, the financial risk that nearly didn't pay off, working with contractors across four countries, and the practical, unglamorous advice she'd give anyone thinking about starting their own thing on the side.

    Hundreds of millions in the bank. Still took 18 years to turn a profit.

    She's got 33 million followers and one of the most photographed families on the planet. It still took Victoria Beckham 18 years to turn a profit, and £66m in debt to get there. We break down what that says about the difference between revenue and profit, and why runway matters more than either. Plus, tech multimillionaire Bryan Johnson's girlfriend Kate Tolo is running her own 100-day biohacking experiment, tracking 14.8 million data points on her own menstrual cycle in the name of (underfunded) women's health research.

    First fund update, Apple's new CEO, & the billion-dollar cost of climate change.

    This week, Soph and Vic share the Curve Fund's very first monthly update and break down the biggest movers, including Estée Lauder's and AMD. They also get into Apple's new CEO John Ternus, only the seventh in the company's 50 year history, and what his $60 million pay package (mostly in stock) says about how the company rewards long-term thinking. Plus, natural disasters cost the world $450 billion last year, and insurance is quietly becoming unaffordable in the riskiest areas. Turns out, skipping cover might be the worst money decision you make.

    The property millionaire who says stop buying.

    This week, Soph is joined by The Curve’s angel investor, Nicole Bremner. At its peak, Nicole’s portfolio included stakes in over 110 properties. In this episode, the pair get honest about what's shifted in the property market over the last 15 years, and why the old rules of buying property no longer apply. They unpack the diversification blind spot most homeowners don't realise they have, and why an emotional purchase isn't a bad one. Plus Nicole reveals what the UK's Rich List actually shows about how wealthy people build and structure their money. Whether you already own property, are weighing up your next move, or are saving for your first home, this conversation will help you buy smarter and think more clearly about where property fits in your bigger financial picture.

    Meta's $18 billion problem.

    Soph and Emma pay tribute to Dolly Parton's legacy and the financial genius behind her career, from refusing to give Elvis half her songwriting credit to owning her entire catalog decades before artists like Taylor Swift and Dua Lipa followed suit. They also break down Meta's $18 billion legal settlement, why prosecutors have finally found a way to hold the platform accountable, and what it signals for big tech going forward. Plus, they get into the rise of men paying matchmakers tens of thousands of dollars to find themselves a traditional wife. Thanks so much to Generate for making The Curve Weekly possible.

    Designer Babies, Anti-Aging & the $12.5B Lakers Deal.

    This week we're asking an uncomfortable question: can money literally buy you a longer life? We dig into the eyebrow-raising world of biohacking billionaires spending millions to reverse their biological age, the stark wealth gap in life expectancy (up to 15 years in some countries), and the rise of $50,000 genetic screening packages that let the ultra-wealthy select for IQ, height and health in their future children. Then we shift gears to sport as an investment - unpacking the $12.5B LA Lakers sale, why scarcity drives sports team valuations, and how to get exposure to the female sport boom without buying a whole team. Plus, two community questions: investing in The Curve Investments via direct debit vs. Sharesies, and how to negotiate a pay rise while on maternity leave.
