I'd actually have anxiety if I didn't spend loads of money.

It would be unhealthy to look back on a year knowing that I didn't do or buy certain things when I could have.

I live my life the exact way I envisioned I would as a young kid. Because that's why I started.

I always envisioned a certain way of living, time freedom, and material possessions. And now I live that way.

I earned it with years of work, so why delay it further?

The time to be more boring is when you reach an older age and your priorities shift away from caring anyway.

This is just my take. I see Max's perspective here, and everyone has a right to live in the way they want. My philosophy is staying true to myself.

[Max Sturtevant @maxwellcopy]

There's something different about 18 to 23-year-olds who make $50k-100k/month but choose to still live at home or just spend less than $3k/month on their expenses…

A lot of people will have their first big month, then immediately go make a big purchase.

That sort of person is different from the one who doesn't.

For me, I still barely spend more than $5k/month…

I spend money on DoorDash and Airbnb, and I get a massage every week. That's all I do. Even in college, profiting $100k/month, I didn't change anything because there's something in the psyche of someone who, no matter how much money they make, doesn't spend it.

The reason I don't spend it is that I can never have enough security.

I'm always uneasy about shit blowing up in my face.

It's like I could lose everything…

I never feel safe with the amount of money I make because you never know when it's going to come back.

For the person who doesn't spend, that insecurity (or that need for security) is what keeps them going. They don't spend money at all, and the very thing that keeps them from spending is the very thing that keeps them growing.

That's the part Nick's tweet is actually pointing at.

X designers saying "Claude couldn't do this"

Give it 6 months bro.

You need to train yourself on AI.

So by the time it's advanced, you are already a pro.

I don't think people realise what is going to hit them.

[Leo McIntosh @SatireExecutive]

@kirillSRV Right now it's not the same level as a human.

But the infrastructure is there to "replace" all of us designers soon.

BUT The only ones that will be replaced are the ones who cannot guide and train AI, and who do not have a vision.

The base level action takers will disappear.

Mfs are clowning Cardone...

But what he's saying is 100% true.

People are raking it in using AI as we speak, and you aren't.

Everyone is just scared of having to pivot what they do a little bit due to AI.

Just become AI-enabled. Take the leap.

No need to switch service.

You should accept charging LESS when you have the opportunity to work with an insane client.

People are too focused on traditional acquisition.

They are too focused on their exact 'planned' price.

One of the best things you can be is FLEXIBLE in scenarios where it's worth it.

Not undermining your value,

But being open to taking on extra responsibility or taking a lower retainer at the beginning...

IF it's someone you could upsell in the future.

If altering something or adding something means you convince an ultra HNW individual to be your client

It's worth it. You'll figure it out later.

Just IMPRESS them.

Your base offer and skills, yes, will always stay the same.

But if you get an opportunity to work for a huge company or brand, and you have to adjust your prices a bit lower?

Just take it and work your way in.

Say YES to opportunities that are offered to you by high level people.

Short term sacrifice, insane long term gain.

These types of deals, after slowly being nurtured,

Have transformed into life-changing opportunities for me.

Literally 1 'way in' and you are good.

I have insane deals happening based on this system right now that you wouldn't even be able to fathom.

And you'll see what they are this year.

But you guys already know the other A-List celebrities and companies and so on that I've mentioned I work with.

Just find a f*cking way in and then play the game and slowly create leverage with the people inside these teams and companies to jump all the way to the top.

If you want to learn exactly how...

And leverage this system for yourself to reach $20k-$30k/month profit delivering by yourself

If your answer is B, join my newsletter.

I teach people exactly how to achieve this.

[Leo McIntosh @SatireExecutive]

Would you rather:

A. $100k/month with 10 people, @ 30% margin

B. $30k/month by yourself, @ 100% margin

A is cool on paper. But you have to deal with huge overheads, other people, more stress.

B looks boring. But you do less work, rely on less people, and live more freely.

This guy just came to a worse version of the same conclusion I did in my tweet a few days ago.

You don’t need to 24/7 build with AI.

But you need to stay on top of it enough so you understand and utilize it for your specific vector.

Your clients need to understand that you know it.

And secondly, you need to be able to nurture relationships with high net worth clients.

The main way of doing that is being constantly invaluable, as well as likable.

[GEOFF @geoffreywoo]

you need to decide to be one of two archetypes:

1. ai-maxx so you can 24/7 commune with codex, claude, devin, droids, gstack, or

2. vibes and looksmaxx in order to 24/7 social climb and bro out with richer and more powerful people

those are the only two jobs left.

My client just fired his $10k/month frontend dev and replaced him with Claude Code.

The guy that's being fired is an absolute killer...

Meticulous work, responsive, and a solid guy.

But apparently this is no longer enough.

You need to become irreplaceable.

How?

Very simple.

A. Proactiveness
B. Relationship building

If you are proactive with AI right now

And show your clients all the cool things you are doing to help improve what you do and deliver better results

You are going to become a little more irreplaceable.

Step 2?

Relationship building.

You do this by operating like an A-Player for your clients.

That means fast responses

Providing new ideas actively (without being asked)

And being likeable.

Once you master skills A and B...

You will be almost irreplaceable.

There's also a vital step C which I will only be revealing inside the Freelance Ascension newsletter.

Part 3: Street Racing in Warsaw

Date: May 20, 2025

After 3 days blasting through Europe I decided it’d be a good idea to take to some Telegram car meets.

People’s reactions were insane. I ended up all over other Instagram pages while I was there until October.

Will attach some more vids and pics from other people in the thread.

I was the first supercar to be ripping around the city at night with the local racers every weekend, enjoying driving to the fullest.

For anyone who doesn’t know I’m half Polish so there isn’t a huge language barrier. Poland is my second home.

Attended many of these meets. Some of them sliding around in the rain at night on some really stupid timing.

Lots of close calls, and some scratches added to the car. I suppose the time to participate in dumb tomfoolery is when you are young.

I made one or two good friends during these months.

In Summer, also moved into my apartment in one of the best buildings in the city, and accumulated a load of crazy stories outside of cars. Just gonna gloss over all of these for now… who knows who’ll read it.

Overall I think I can claim this was a worlds first.

From shipping the car across the world as a teenager to flexing Arabic plates around a city that holds a special place in my heart I had an absolute blast.

I hope this is as inspirational as much as some would view it as a flex.

Attaching some fun highlights in the thread below.

For legal purposes this is all AI and fake comedy world entertainment. This of course includes all the times I got flashed and they couldn’t send me a ticket due to the origin country of the car.

Next step. Autobahn to Berlin.

Location: German Border

V12 roaring in the tunnels.

As we flew towards the border we got waved down by the police.

No surprise that we got searched. Two young guys in a bright orange car with weird plates.

Luckily the company who shipped it from the UAE, CARS Logistics, provided me with all the importation documents and my vehicle registration card in one booklet.

They let us through after about 20 min and checking our passports no problem.

We had trouble buying any form of nicotine in the Netherlands for some dumb reason (they only sell stuff that makes you high) so at this point we were happy to be let through.

Many $10M+ offers online have AWFUL design

But they use different 'aesthetics' to resonate with and convert their target audience.

Google docs = aesthetic for founders and hustlers. Signals pure value and clear cut information. Even if it isn't amazing 'design' it resonates with business owners.

Flashy landing pages = great for pioneering industries and big ideas (EG AI companies) where you need to impress people and create buzz, but also B2C and infoproducts.

Static Infographics = honestly who cares about this shit. Maybe some people AI infographics in ads. People using these as content or to communicate are stuck in 2018.

PDFs/presentations = great to look professional to boomers or HNW individuals. Also enjoyed by people who like to consume value p*rn all day and do no work.

GHL/Clickfunnel landers = grails for info, digital offers, driving traffic from ads. The odd charm of these traditional funnel pages always seems to convert with the right team behind it. Somehow they are aesthetic.

Overedited talking head video with overlays = B2C, great for selling to poors who like flashy things and have fried dopamine receptors. Abused by Instagram Reel lifestyle seller types preaching fake value.

Mid camera Loom of a guy in his penthouse = high ticket or b2b. I respect this guy. The aesthetic of not giving a crap but still looking impressive.

Average landing page = recipe for killing your company. Either go with the ghl/clickfunnels aesthetic and make your page fast, or get a super good lander made. Anything in the middle is perceived as unaesthetic and ran by a beginner.

Aesthetics run 2026. Save this.

(Aesthetics, design, marketing and sales are all interlinked)
