Hi everyone. Brandon here, publisher of BroBible.com, welcoming you to a weekend edition of our 11 Things You Missed on the Internet newsletter.

It’s a beautiful afternoon in Southern California. I’m off to see Post Malone tonight at Rolling Loud. Should be a good time.

Speaking of dudes named Austin, in honor of 3/16 day, I posted a video on our Instagram of Stone Cold Steve Austin explaining the origins of Austin 3:16.

The surprising asset that (handily) beat stock market darlings

What's one investing secret that billionaires like Jay-Z and Ken Griffin know that you don’t? A market whose prices grew at an annualized rate of 18.2% from 1984 to 2022, outpacing the S&P 500, and stocks like Berkshire Hathaway and Walmart: Basquiat. 

That’s right, the market for Jean-Michel Basquiat’s art. And now, for the first time, everyday investors are getting in on the action.  

Thanks to Masterworks, the award-winning platform for investing in blue-chip art. When Masterworks sells a painting – like the 20 it's already sold – investors can realize a return. 

All of their offerings are limited, and shares can sell out in just minutes, but readers can skip the waitlist with this exclusive link. 

Past performance is not indicative of future returns, investing involves risk. See disclosures masterworks.com/cd.
