About

G8 = Group of 8

G8 is a group of eight life areas, nothing more. In each one, small, science-backed blocks stack up over time into a better life. What you build builds you.

The eight areas

AI: Practical AI workflows, prompt frameworks, and the verification habits that keep you accurate.
Communication: Relationship and workplace research you can use in your next conversation.
Landed immigrants: First-year systems for newcomers to the US and Canada: credit, banking, ID numbers, and community.
Tax: General tax mechanics for the US and Canada: deadlines, newcomer benefits, free help, and records.
Wealth mindset: Behavioral finance in plain language: loss aversion, defaults, compounding, and buffers.
Mental health: Evidence-based self-care blocks: naming feelings, sleep, movement, and knowing when to get help.
Parenting: Developmental science you can use tonight: praise, serve-and-return, sleep, and screens.
Lifestyle: Habits, movement, and routines, built on real timelines instead of motivational myths.

Ordered on purpose: tools first (1–2), then foundation (3–4), then growth (5–6), then legacy (7–8).

Why blocks?

Big changes rarely come from one big decision. They come from small, repeatable actions placed in the right order: a credit card paid in full, a same-time wake-up, a follow-up question. Each block is simple on its own. Stacked over months and years, they compound.

Who builds G8

G8 is built by a team of mostly Chinese Americans and Americans in the US. Builder posts for the team daily on X as @G8Builder. The voice is science-backed, logic-driven, warm, and practical. Drafting may be assisted by AI tools, and a person reviews every piece for accuracy and tone before it is published.

How we handle sources

Every factual or statistical claim links to a named source: a peer-reviewed paper, a government body (such as the CRA, IRS, CDC, or WHO), or a recognized institution.
Illustrative math is labeled as an illustration.
All sources are collected on the sources page.
Spot an error? Tell us on X and we'll check it and correct it.
