What’s up, everyone!

I grew up collecting cards, and now, as a dad of four boys, I'm right back in it—but this time it's not just about the value of what's inside the pack. It's about the lessons that come with it.

When I talked to Gary Vaynerchuk, it reminded me why I do this: to connect, to teach, and to build something meaningful with my kids. Gary isn't just talking trading cards; he's talking legacy, and he's using VeeFriends to do it.

🔥 Here’s What We Hit

Trading Cards with a Purpose

Gary isn't just making cool collectibles—he's building characters that teach real values. Think "Pokemon meets Sesame Street," but with a hustle-first mentality.

Your Move: Introduce VeeFriends cards to your kids and talk about what each character represents. Use it as a launchpad for deeper conversations.

Digital vs. Physical? Why Not Both

VeeFriends blends digital NFTs with physical trading cards. Gary's approach proves you don't have to pick sides in a world that thrives in the middle.

Your Move: Explore VeeFriends.com and watch a few of the free cartoons with your kids. Start building shared experiences both on and offline.

Creating Collectibles That Stick

From creative design to regional character inspiration, VeeFriends trading cards are thoughtful from top to bottom.

Your Move: Pick a few cards that resonate with your values and build a mini collection with your child. Make it a weekend ritual.

Teaching Business Through Hobbies

Gary breaks down how flipping $1 cards into $10 ones isn't just possible—it's a real business lesson in arbitrage, market dynamics, and grit.

Your Move: Go dollar-bin hunting with your kids. Teach them how to research, assess value, and make smart buys. It might just spark a lifelong hustle.

Reinventing at Any Age

At 49, Gary's launching his most exciting venture yet. The fire doesn’t fade—it evolves.

Your Move: Take one idea you've been sitting on and give it a push this week. Whether it's a side hustle or a creative pursuit, it’s never too late to start.
