The final issue of the year is always our most ambitious—a chance to take stock of where we are, who’s shaping the future, and how to live well while doing good. Q4 brings all of that together in one deeply reported, thoughtfully curated package—anchored by the Worthy 100 and expanded with stories that connect purpose, prosperity, and pleasure. The print issue ships the first week of December and will debut online around the same time.
The Worthy 100
At the heart of the issue lies our exclusive Worthy 100 list, a roster of leaders who combine ambition with impact. Making the Worthy 100 isn’t about net worth or follower counts; it’s about tangible results—jobs created, carbon avoided, capital deployed with intent, communities served, and ideas advanced. We seek longevity (a multi-year commitment, rather than one-off grants), transparency (clear metrics, rather than subjective impressions), and replicability (models that others can use). Official nominations are now closed, but if you believe we’ve overlooked someone who truly meets that standard, please reach out to me directly—I still have some flexibility. Pro tip: when you lobby, include three crisp bullets with evidence of impact, not adjectives.
The Atlas Economic Report
This is a deep analysis of the global economy from Atlas Merchant Capital. This special feature connects macro trends to real-world decisions: how shifting monetary policy, geopolitical realignments, and new technologies will shape markets, industries, and wealth strategies in the year ahead. It’s a must-read for anyone trying to see around the corner and position themselves—or their business—for what’s next.
Peninsula Hong Kong → Raffles Singapore: Two Icons, One Arc
We connect two legends of Asian hospitality in a whirlwind itinerary: a sunrise over Victoria Harbor with the Peninsula’s old-world precision, and a sunset in Singapore, where Raffles reimagines colonial architecture for a modern city-state. This is a story about service choreography as much as suites—how heritage brands stay relevant with design updates, sustainable operations, and tech that stays politely out of sight. Expect tactile details: tea trays and turn-down services, jet-lag cures that work, and the quiet pleasures that make a hotel more than just a bed for the night.
Inside Breguet: Craft, Code, and Continuity
We sit down with Emmanuel Breguet to talk about what it means to steward a 250-year-old name in a world that refreshes every 24 hours. The conversation spans hand-finished guilloché, silicon escapements, and the line between innovation and gimmickry. We get into pricing discipline, secondary-market reality, and why provenance is now a data problem as much as a design one. If you care about horology—and the business model behind it—this is a candid look at how a legacy maison earns modern relevance.
Lamborghini’s Latest PHEV: Theater Meets Throughput
We test Lamborghini’s plug-in hybrid the way it’s meant to be driven—long enough to understand the power delivery, calm enough to notice what the electrons add besides torque. This piece is less about lap times and more about engineering tradeoffs: weight vs. feel, software vs. soul, efficiency claims vs. real-world range. We also cover the ownership experience—charging realities, maintenance expectations, and whether a supercar that sips electrons can still evoke the same thrill. In short, the answer is yes, but the reasons might surprise you.
The Best Ski Resorts in the U.S.
Our winter playbook ranks resorts the way skiers actually choose them: snow reliability, lift efficiency, terrain variety, family logistics, and après that’s worth your time. We segment picks for different use cases—long-weekend flyers, multi-family trips, expert terrain hunters, and travelers who’d like a credible spa as much as a credible fall line. We also map booking windows, holiday blackout tactics, and the gear upgrades that punch above their weight this season. This guide is designed to ensure you’re well-prepared and can make the most of your next ski adventure.
The Holiday Gift Guide: Thoughtful, Useful, Memorable
Our annual gift guide is a testament to thoughtful curation. We’ve steered clear of novelty for novelty’s sake, instead focusing on objects with craftsmanship, utility, and a story you can tell in one breath. Expect a tight edit across travel, wellness, tech, and time—things that wear in, not out. We’ll mark sustainable choices, note lead times, and flag where to buy to avoid shipping roulette.
Q4 is about aligning values with experiences—and ending the year with a plan. The issue drops soon. If you’ve got a last-minute Worthy 100 contender who can meet the bar, you know where to find me.
