“Better video (studio)” for conversational podcasts is overrated.
I do want to see the people and their expressions as they talk.
Post editing for adding supporting visuals is also helpful
I don’t need, pretty, fancy or expensive.
Zoom calls are okay.
If I want a cinematic experience I’ll watch Netflix.
If I want to learn something interesting I watch the Tim Ferris Show
The best protocol to eliminate filler words (ummms etc.) These are otherwise very difficult to eliminate b/c they happen reflexively. Matt Abrahams on the Huberman Lab podcast out now all about how to speak clearly and with confidence.
My basic investment thesis:
1. Buy stuff that goes up in value
2. Keep it, don’t sell or trade it
3. Keep buying forever
The losers teach me what not to do
The winners remind me that I once did a smart thing ...
More leads to better.
If I want to feel smart again I should keep going and do another smart thing
Buy. Keep. Repeat.
Your current circumstances were created by your past state of being.
Therefore …
Your current state is creating your future circumstances, right now.
Want a better future?
Choose a better state of being, right now.
Anti-Judgment judgement
There’s been a trend against judgment
“Don’t judge me”
“Don’t judge them, let them be!”
It seems to be lumped in with the ‘haters’.
Rubbish!
A good life comes from good judgement.
Judge if the car will stop at the crossing.
Situational judgement keeps you safe.
Judge who to work with.
Judgement allows us to enjoy our work.
Judge the temperament of your date.
Your choice will change the rest of your life.
Judge the economic, political, geographic stability of the land you live in.
Maybe, it’s a rich land but earthquakes and hurricanes prevail.
Maybe it’s poor but filled with happy people.
Judge everything.
Make informed choices, take informed action …
based on good judgment.
History's biggest wealth transfers hide in plain sight:
They're called "Infrastructure Inversions"
When old technology and new technology exist simultaneously over a 10-20 year window...
Bitcoin treasury companies get it.
Here's why🧵
Elon Musk built rockets for 2% of NASA’s cost.
Jeff Bezos built the fastest supply chain in history.
Both use a 2,300-year-old method to turn “impossible” into reality while everyone else follows the rules.
Here’s how First Principles thinking works (and how to use it):
It does not matter if you buy Bitcoin at the top or the bottom …
It’s either going to zero …
Or it’s going to $13,000,000
Prepare for both:
1. Earn money for life some other way
2. Buy BTC with money you are willing to lose
3. Keep buying Bitcoin irrespective of its price as soon as you can afford to again
4. Never sell Bitcoin
5. If you need money later, borrow against the BTC if you must … but never sell it.
PS. This strategy also works with real estate.
I always LOL at people who buy real estate instead of Bitcoin.
"I bought real estate because it always goes up."
Congrats. You now own:
30 years of debt
7% interest rates
2 AM plumbing emergencies
Property taxes that rise forever
Insurance companies that ghost you
HOAs run by sociopaths
Meanwhile, Bitcoin just sits there, doesn’t leak, doesn’t rot, doesn’t call you at work, doesn’t require a lawn mower, and silently devours the collapsing fiat system like a black hole with an appetite for human stupidity.
Real estate is a boomer pet rock.
Bitcoin is the exit.
Some things are right and fine the way they are - yet can be and often are changed at will.
Some things are just wrong and cannot be changed.
Or the reverse.
When is acceptance the right move … or the wrong move?
