Learn how to learn.
Research with AI.
Decide with judgment.
Thirty days of daily one-to-one coaching with a personalized AI mentor, backed by a real curriculum in research, money, and markets. Take it yourself. Do it alongside someone you love. Or encourage a young person to take it — and stay close without hovering.
A structured, adult apprenticeship in first-principles research, personal-finance hygiene, and durable investing ideas.
Take it side by side with a partner, a friend, or someone you're mentoring. Two participants, one shared vocabulary.
Encourage a young person to take the program. You can join or stay in the background — the dashboard belongs to them, not to you.
Ask better questions. Compare answers across models. Cite the source, not the summary. Steel-man the other side.
Read the durable thinkers — Marks, Buffett, Munger, Damodaran, Taleb — and translate one idea per week into practice.
Track spending. Write the 'why' before big decisions. Learn to size positions to your life, not your ego.
Open the Coach GPT. One real question. Today's assignment. One piece of evidence to bring back.
Reading, research, paper trades, or personal-finance work — with the Socratic coach guiding, not answering.
Teach it back. Where might the AI be wrong? What was in your control? Confirm the day, then rest.
The Capital Allocation Coach is a personalized Custom GPT that lives inside ChatGPT — not a chatbot bolted onto this site. It connects securely to your Lab through GPT Actions so drafts, submissions, and adjustments flow both ways with your explicit confirmation.
Today, Journey, Compete, Portfolio, Me. One dominant next action at any moment. Late work reduces timing points, never mastery — recovery, not shame.
Capital Allocation Lab began as a gift from a father to his son before boarding school — a durable version of the lessons his own father had passed down to him, about money, about attention, about how to think.
It has since become something anyone can take. The core belief is unchanged: the scarce skill isn't information — it's judgment. And judgment is built one small, honest decision at a time.
