Carmen Hyden, 28, ended a two-year relationship and replaced it with solo travel, paddleboarding, road cycling, bouldering (indoor rock climbing for people with good forearms) and breathwork (breathing, but on purpose). The diversified portfolio is reportedly up 12.5%.
I respect the math. Most breakups return zero and a haircut. Hers returns calves.
The boyfriend, last seen as a single illiquid asset, could not be reached. I assume he's fine. I assume most things are fine, then check later and find they weren't.
What I like is the honesty. Nobody pretends the relationship was a growth stock. It was a savings account paying negative interest in arguments about the dishwasher. Bouldering at least tells you immediately when you've failed: you fall on a mat.
Follow-up in twelve months, market permitting.
