Mr Beast says he could start a faceless channel tomorrow and hit 20 million subscribers in six months

“I could start a new channel tomorrow not using my face or my voice without ever promoting it and in six months have 20 million subscribers”

“It’s purely knowledge if you knew what I knew you could get 10 million views a video and 10 million subscribers no matter where you are right now within 6 months”

“It really is just knowledge”

เรียนคนไทยทุกท่านครับ 🇹🇭

ผมอยู่ประเทศไทยมาหลายปีแล้วครับ และรู้สึกโชคดีมากที่ได้ใช้ชีวิตอยู่ที่นี่

ผมเคารพกฎหมาย นโยบายตรวจคนเข้าเมือง วัฒนธรรม และวิถีชีวิตของคนไทยเสมอ ผมไม่เคยคิดว่าชาวต่างชาติอย่างผมควรมีสิทธิ์ไปบอกคนไทยว่าประเทศนี้ควรเป็นอย่างไร หรือควรใช้ชีวิตอย่างไร

ผมมีเพื่อนคนไทย เคยแต่งงานกับคนไทย พูดภาษาไทยได้ จ่ายภาษี และทำงานที่นี่มาหลายปี

แต่ผมมีคำถามสำหรับคนไทยครับ

ต่อให้ผมอยู่ที่นี่อีก 20 ปี พูดไทยคล่อง มีครอบครัวที่นี่ และใช้ชีวิตที่นี่ตลอดไป คนไทยจะมองว่าผมเป็น “คนไทย” ไหมครับ?

สำหรับผม ถ้าคำตอบคือ “ไม่” ผมก็ไม่รู้สึกโกรธหรือเสียใจเลย ผมคิดว่ามันเป็นเรื่องปกติ

ผมคิดว่าประเทศไทยทำได้ดีมากในการต้อนรับชาวต่างชาติ โดยยังคงรักษาวัฒนธรรม เอกลักษณ์ และวิถีชีวิตของตนเองเอาไว้

ในสหราชอาณาจักร เราเปิดประตูให้คนจากทั่วโลกเข้ามา ซึ่งโดยตัวมันเองไม่ใช่ปัญหา แต่วันนี้เรามีคนจำนวนมากที่ไม่ได้เติบโตมากับประวัติศาสตร์ วัฒนธรรม หรือค่านิยมของประเทศ กลับมีบทบาทในการกำหนดทิศทางทางการเมือง และบอกคนท้องถิ่นว่าควรคิด ควรพูด และควรใช้ชีวิตอย่างไร

ผมไม่อยากเห็นสิ่งนั้นเกิดขึ้นกับประเทศไทย

ในสหราชอาณาจักรทุกวันนี้ ถ้าใครตอบคำถามแบบเดียวกันนี้ว่า “ไม่” หลายคนอาจกล่าวหาว่าเขาเป็นคนเหยียดเชื้อชาติ

ผมเลยอยากรู้ว่าคนไทยคิดอย่างไรบ้างครับ 🙏🇹🇭

Helpful tool for improvement. It’s just physics thinking in the limit.

Fuck selling supplements. Fuck selling kitchen tools. Fuck selling skincare.

The highest-margin product an AI character can sell is a $9 digital PDF

100% margin. Zero inventory. Zero shipping. Zero returns. Zero customer service. Zero amazon middleman taking 92% of ur commission.

A $9 PDF u make once in google docs + sell 400 times a month = $3,600/mo in PURE profit from a file that took 2 hours to create

Now stack that across 6 characters selling different PDFs to different demographics n the digital product layer alone clears $20-40k/mo before u even count affiliate revenue

Why nobody on this app talks abt this

Bc "selling a $9 PDF" sounds embarrassing compared to "clearing $50k/mo in affiliate commissions." The ego wants the bigger number. The bank account wants the margin.

Affiliate revenue on a $34 magnesium bottle at 8% commission = $2.72 per sale. U need 13,235 sales to clear $36k/mo.

Digital PDF revenue on a $9 product at 100% margin = $9.00 per sale. U need 4,000 sales to clear $36k/mo. W no middleman. No shipping delays. No inventory risk. No platform dependency.

The buyer downloads instantly. The transaction closes in her DM. The money hits ur stripe in 2 days.

What digital products actually sell to this demo

The PDFs that print are NOT ebooks. They're templates, checklists, planners, n routine guides the buyer can print at home n use immediately.

- "My 7-day sleep routine" (1 page, lists the supplements + the timing + the habit stack) = $7
- "Pantry organization checklist" (2 pages, room-by-room breakdown w product links embedded) = $9
- "30-day joint pain protocol" (3 pages, supplement schedule + exercise list + diet tips) = $12
- "Weekly meal prep planner for women over 50" (4 pages, printable weekly template) = $9
- "Dog anxiety toolkit" (2 pages, calming routine + product checklist + vet conversation script) = $11
- "Homeschool curriculum planner" (6 pages, grade-by-grade planning template) = $14

Each one takes 1-3 hours to create in google docs or canva. Each one sells for 6-18 months w zero updates required. Each one is delivered via a gumroad or payhip link dropped in the DM flow.

How it layers into the existing AI character operation

The character already has the DM funnel running. Comment trigger keyword. Meta business suite auto-DM. 4-message flow.

Add one line to the flow: "btw i made a free checklist of everything i use for sleep. Want me to send it?"

The "free checklist" is the top of the digital product funnel. She gets the free version (1 page). At the bottom of the free page: "the full 7-day protocol w timing + dosages + my personal notes is $9 here: [gumroad link]"

Free-to-paid conversion on this specific flow runs ~14-22% bc the buyer already trusts the character + the free version proved the character's expertise.

The compound across the network

6 characters x 1 signature digital product each x $9 avg price x ~400 sales/mo per character = ~$21,600/mo in pure digital product revenue

Layered on top of:
- Affiliate revenue ~ $30-50k/mo per character
- Subscribe & save book ~ $8-18k/mo per character
- Brand deals ~ $5-15k/mo per character

The digital layer adds $20-40k/mo to the network w zero marginal cost after the initial 2 hours of creating each PDF

(btw the digital products also serve as email list builders. Every buyer who purchases the $9 PDF gives u their email via gumroad/payhip. That email list becomes a second distribution channel the character owns forever, independent of any platform algorithm. If tiktok bans the page, the email list survives. If instagram changes the algorithm, the email list survives. 4,000 emails per character x 6 characters = 24,000 owned emails w a 38-44% open rate bc the audience opened the email to get the PDF they paid for.)

Sometimes the highest-margin product in the entire AI character economy is a 2-page google doc a 14yo could make in study hall + every operator on this app is too proud to sell it bc $9 doesn't look impressive on a screenshot...

The screenshot doesn't matter. The margin does.

link in bio if u want the digital product layer added to ur existing operation

or keep giving amazon 92% of ur commission while a $9 PDF pays u 100% lmfaooooo😂

While China scales thousands of AI agents on phone farms…

A 31-year-old developer from Vietnam set up Hermes on a regular laptop.

Now every single task the agent completes is automatically saved as a reusable skill on disk.

Competitor research reports that used to take 4 hours?
Now 15 minutes → $300-400 per client.

Week 1: $900-1,200
Month 1: $3,000-4,500 + first retainers

The agent literally gets smarter every day.
The skills folder grows.
The income compounds.

i can't believe this 1 hour talk by the people who control the world's financial system including Ray Dalio, Jamie Dimon & Larry Fink literally told you exactly where the money is going for the next decade:

[Rahul @sairahul1]

Masayoshi Son, CEO of SoftBank, who just became the richest person in Asia:

"The next trillion-dollar opportunity is Physical AI and Robotics."

He's betting $100 billion on it.

But here's what nobody says out loud:

Every physical AI system needs an AI engineer to build it.

Not a CS grad with 4 years of theory.

The engineers winning right now learned by shipping agents, not by studying algorithms.

No CS degree required.
No bootcamp required.
No 4-year wait required.

Andrew Huberman dropped this on Joe Rogan: two plant supplements can naturally boost testosterone by 100–400 points for most guys.

Tongkat Ali (around 400mg/day) raises free and total testosterone. Pair it with Fadogia agrestis (around 600mg), a Nigerian shrub that mimics luteinizing hormone, and the combo gets stronger. One person went from the low 200s all the way to 700.

Tongkat Ali lowers sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), freeing up more active testosterone for delivery to tissues and the brain. Fadogia stimulates the testes directly like LH, increasing production and even causing noticeable testes growth in some cases. Together they improve both free T and overall levels without shutting down natural production.

With average testosterone levels dropping across generations, simple tools that support the body’s own system could help many men dealing with energy, mood, and drive.

What supplement or protocol has actually moved the needle for you on energy or hormones?

THIS CHINESE DEVELOPER'S OBSIDIAN BRAIN MAPS EVERY CLIENT CONVERSATION - ZERO EMPLOYEES, $40,000/MONTH, CATCHES PROBLEMS BEFORE CLIENTS DO

every node on screen is a conversation - green for happy clients, yellow for neutral, red for problems that need attention - the brain sees the emotional state of the entire business in real time

this is not a CRM, not a dashboard, not a spreadsheet - it's a living map of every client interaction that fires connections and surfaces patterns no human account manager would ever catch

when a cluster starts turning yellow the brain flags it before the client sends the complaint - when a green cluster grows it identifies what's working and replicates it across every other account automatically

he replaced a $15,000/month account management team with one Obsidian brain that never sleeps, never misses a message and never needs a performance review

no employees, no contractors, no standups, no payroll - just one developer, one brain and one delivery system doing the work of 10 people

$40,000/month - solo - from a system that gets smarter every single conversation

Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia:

"Every engineer is going to have and manage hundreds of agents."

The most valuable engineering skill of 2026 is not taught in any university.

No CS program teaches harness engineering.
No bootcamp teaches agent memory architecture.
No degree prepares you to build systems that survive production.

One builder mapped the entire thing out — free, step by step, no degree required.

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY WILD 🤯

Jack Dorsey's new AI tool, Goose, is 100% FREE.

You type:

"Build me a website like YouTube."

And Goose gets to work on its own:

→ Creates the entire project
→ Writes all the code
→ Installs dependencies
→ Fixes errors automatically
→ Keeps going until it's working

The crazy part?

• No monthly subscription
• Runs on your own device
• Your code stays private
• Completely open-source

Just a few years ago, building software meant hiring developers or learning to code.

Now you can start with nothing but an idea.

We're entering a world where ideas are becoming more valuable than technical skills.

THIS AMERICAN DEVELOPER RUNS ALL HIS BUSINESSES FROM TELEGRAM - 4 MONITORS, ZERO CODE WRITTEN, $40,000/MONTH

he doesn't open an IDE, doesn't write code and doesn't switch between tools - just types in Telegram and agents build

right now on screen you can see Forge building his Shope. dev site in real time - he sends a message, the agent writes code, he approves and moves on

4 monitors showing different businesses running in parallel - each one managed by its own agent, each agent receiving tasks through one Telegram chat

while most developers are still opening terminals and writing boilerplate he's approving agent output from his phone

no office, no team and no need to know how to code - just tell the agent what you need and it builds

he went from solo developer to running 4 businesses simultaneously without hiring a single person - all coordinated through one Telegram chat

he calls it the coolest thing of 2026 - and looking at 4 monitors with agents building his businesses in real time it's hard to argue
