“There are no solutions. There are only trade-offs.”
Thomas Sowell challenged generations to think more clearly, more rationally — and above all, more honestly. In a world full of emotional arguments and easy answers, Sowell brought hard facts and clear thinking. SowellPop celebrates this spirit: bold, data-driven insight that helps us make sense of a complex world.
and the Wisdom of Milton Friedman

“There’s no such thing as a free lunch.”
This simple phrase by Milton Friedman revealed a powerful truth: nothing comes without cost — and freedom comes with responsibility. Friedman showed the world that true prosperity comes when individuals are trusted to make their own decisions. FriedmanPop is our tribute to his timeless message: that economic liberty is the foundation of all other freedoms.
Inspiration, Tools & Gratitude
Special Thanks to the City of Solothurn and Centris AG
We owe special gratitude to the city of Solothurn, whose kind spirit, beautiful surroundings, and quiet expertise have (directly and indirectly) supported the creation of this weekend project.
Its cultural richness, thoughtful atmosphere, and openness have been a subtle but vital part of our inspiration.
This project stands as a quiet thank you to a city that cultivates not only nature, but also the mind.
Mental Models for Everyday Life
In this section, we share powerful thinking tools — in both German and French — to help navigate daily life with clarity and creativity.
Just like a Swiss Army knife fits in your pocket, these mental models fit in your mind — ready to unfold when life gets complex.
They’re practical, sharp, and deeply rooted in timeless wisdom, inspired by thinkers like Charlie Munger, whose portrait you see at the top left of this section.
