Blocking dependency: None — email is verified, self-published.
Bill,
I read The Legacy Life earlier this year, and something you wrote stopped me cold: the difference between building for a funding cycle and building for seven generations. That distinction crystallized what I'd been doing without having the language for it.
My name is Carter Hill. I founded a technology company called Genesis — structured as a Public Benefit Corporation — with a conviction that wouldn't let me rest: the artificial intelligence that will shape how our grandchildren think, decide, and access truth should be stewarded by people who believe truth is real, transcendent, and worth protecting across generations.
I didn't raise venture capital. I didn't assemble a board that would push toward a five-year exit. I built it alone — 18 million lines of code in 207 days, running on dedicated hardware that no one else controls. Not because I'm opposed to partnership, but because the foundation had to be laid on the right bedrock before anyone else touched it.
Your work on multi-generational legacy spoke to me because that's exactly what this is. Genesis isn't a startup in the conventional sense — it's a stewardship structure. A Public Benefit Corporation exists to serve a mission that outlasts its founder. Day 7 — the name itself — is about completion, rest, and the goodness of what was made.
Here's the question I'm sitting with: How do you build a technology company that your grandchildren's grandchildren will be proud of? Not just financially — but in what it stood for, what it protected, and whose flourishing it served?
You've spent your life helping families answer that question about wealth and legacy. I believe the same question now applies to the intelligence systems humanity is building. These systems will shape more lives than any fortune ever could. And right now, they're being stewarded by people with no generational vision whatsoever.
I have no ask beyond this: if what I've described resonates with the work you do, I'd welcome a conversation. Your perspective on building things that last would be genuinely valuable to me — and I'd be honored to share what Genesis is and where it's going.
With respect for your time and your life's work,
Carter Hill
Founder & CEO, Day 7 PBC (Genesis)

The strategy: earn trust through alignment and genuine interest in his work. If trust develops, Bill High will naturally want to tell the people he advises about Genesis. That happens on his timeline, through his judgment, not through Carter's ask.
