Guest Bio

Jon is a multi-faceted financial expert currently managing a family office, small fund, as well as a consulting service for UHNW investors in the crypto and legacy space. As a lifetime contrarian, he has an innate ability to see past “the casino” and try and decipher hidden opportunities across markets and sectors. Recently he has released his private newsletter to the public under the twitter handle @WLinvestment.  He was the founder of the Singularity University Ottawa chapter which ran for several years educating groups of executives on disruptive tech and future trends.   Outside of the financial sphere, health and healing has been a huge part of his life across a variety of disciplines and spectrums. Jon is an accomplished sailor, skier, and elite rock climber. More recently he has embraced Andy Frisella’s “75 Hard” challenge and has been pushing that for close to a year.   He has had a long term curiosity about the world and what else is “out there”. Anything from geopolitics to aliens is up for discussion.

His agency is a certified reseller and operator of Hyros. Helping customers track down to the penny their ROI, and reduce their customer acquisition cost. He started off his career selling door-to-door, and managing security at after-hours events. Ten years later, his strengths include creating SOPs, lead generation, building up leaders, building and training sales teams. He does sketch comedy, impersonations, ayahuasca, kundalini yoga, and is obsessed with history/geopolitics and crushing it in every way: health, relationships, business, and philanthropy. He is a dragon, not part-time, not as a side hustle, but a full-time dragon. Brian Comstock, an e-commerce brand builder in the ergonomics space (getkneely.com) and business buy/sell broker, is relentlessly focused on exploring and realizing human potential. His diverse entrepreneurial background includes buying, building, and selling a digital/social media marketing agency, brokering the sale of other online businesses, and consulting 7 and 8-figure business owners in systems/efficiency optimization. He's experimented with every form of scientifically-validated healing and human advancement modality he could get his hands on, ranging from MDMA-assisted therapy to multi-day ayahuasca retreats to peptides and stem cells. Personal growth is play for Brian, so you'd find him endlessly toying with the cutting-edge of health and wellness. As such, he's partnered with a fellow biohacker geek to make stem cells and the bleeding edge of anti-aging/regenerative medicine more widely available to the public.
