This is the Scott Adams clip I played for my subscribers in this morning's live stream, the "Solsbury Hill Reframe."
It's so good.
"You didn't lose anything ... everything ends, and then something will begin ... when you find yourself in a tough time, the end of something good ... I wouldn't trade the good parts."
THIS 2007 blog, Naval Ravikant says, contains the most valuable writing advice in the world...
The Day You Became A Better Writer by Scott Adams (@ScottAdamsSays):
I went from being a bad writer to a good writer after taking a one-day course in “business writing.” I couldn’t believe how simple it was. I’ll tell you the main tricks here so you don’t have to waste a day in class.
Business writing is about clarity and persuasion. The main technique is keeping things simple. Simple writing is persuasive. A good argument in five sentences will sway more people than a brilliant argument in a hundred sentences. Don’t fight it.
Simple means getting rid of extra words. Don’t write, “He was very happy” when you can write “He was happy.” You think the word “very” adds something. It doesn’t. Prune your sentences.
Humor writing is a lot like business writing. It needs to be simple. The main difference is in the choice of words. For humor, don’t say “drink” when you can say “swill.”
Your first sentence needs to grab the reader. Go back and read my first sentence to this post. I rewrote it a dozen times. It makes you curious. That’s the key.
Write short sentences. Avoid putting multiple thoughts in one sentence. Readers aren’t as smart as you’d think.
Learn how brains organize ideas. Readers comprehend “the boy hit the ball” quicker than “the ball was hit by the boy.” Both sentences mean the same, but it’s easier to imagine the object (the boy) before the action (the hitting). All brains work that way. (Notice I didn’t say, “That is the way all brains work”?)
That’s it. You just learned 80% of the rules of good writing. You’re welcome.

How 100-Baggers Are Really Created and how to Spot them.
2025 reminded us that markets are noisy, emotional and unpredictable.
But history shows that the biggest fortunes were not made by predicting events — they were made by owning great businesses and letting time do the heavy lifting.
They came from owning ordinary-looking businesses that quietly compounded year after year.
Take a simple example.
A company that grows its profits at 20% a year does not look exciting in any single year. But if that growth continues for 25 years, the business becomes 100 times bigger. And over time, the stock price tends to follow.
That is what we call a 100-bagger
Over the last 25 years, multiple Indian companies have delivered 100× returns.
These include names like Titan, Bajaj Finance, Pidilite, SRF, Shree Cement and TVS Motor etc. They did not become 100-baggers because of one big event. They became 100-baggers because they kept growing steadily for decades.
No hype. No frenzy. No big story.
The fascinating part is this: most of these companies never looked extraordinary in the beginning.
Have silver prices peaked out or is it in a longer bull run ?
S naren of @ICICIPruMF tells me
"You should move out of a euphoric asset class and move to a fearful asset class.
Thats an easier way than deciding whether this is the top"
Doing proper asset allocation is the best way to build wealth for the long term.
My year end musings: India at 77.
1. Go for growth. Let’s get enterprise and animal spirits firing.
2. ROTI is Return on time invested. Go relentlessly for productivity.
3. Shun protectionism. It may benefit in the short term. Long term it makes us uncompetitive.
4. We need a plan to eliminate the current account deficit in reasonable time.
5. Increase investment in defence. Power is power. Safety is prerequisite for prosperity.
6. Continue with gentle and steady fiscal consolidation from here.
7. Avoid over regulation and micro management across sectors. Zero accident policy is high risk to growth.
8. Respect free and fair markets. Intervene only if there is evidence of bubbles or manipulation.
9. India is 1.4 billion people. Let many flowers bloom.
10.We must get out of having amongst the most polluted cities in the world. Let us walk the talk.
“I am sick and tired of this worship of high-priced growth stocks. Paying 40 times earnings for a company growing 15% a year is not investing—it’s a greater-fool game dressed up in spreadsheets.
We have never in 75 years bought a single share of anything at a price that did not give us an enormous margin of safety. Not once. And we never will.
We’ll keep buying dollar bills at 30–40 cents when the world occasionally goes crazy and hands them to us. That is the entire game.” - Charlie Munger

Elon Musk’s @elonmusk first principles algorithm:
“Well, it's easy to say simplify and it's very difficult to do it.
You know, I have this very basic first principles algorithm that I run kind of as a mantra, which is to first question the requirements, make the requirements less dumb. The requirements are always dumb to some degree, so you want to start off by reducing the number of requirements. And no matter how smart the person who gave you those requirements, they're still dumb to some degree. You have to start there because otherwise you could get the perfect answer to the wrong question. So try to make the question the least wrong possible. That's what question the requirements means.
And then the second thing is to try to delete whatever the step is, the part, or the process step. It sounds very obvious, but people often forget to try deleting it entirely. And if you're not forced to put back at least 10% of what you delete, you're not deleting enough. And it's somewhat illogical, people often, most of the time, feel as though they've succeeded if they've not been forced to put things back in. But actually, they haven't because they've been overly conservative and have left things in there that shouldn't be.
And only the third thing is to try to optimize it or simplify it. Again, these all sound, I think, very obvious when I say them, but the number of times I've made these mistakes is more than I care to remember. That's why I have this mantra.
So in fact, I'd say the most common mistake of smart engineers is to optimize a thing that should not exist.”
1. Algebra is good for problem-solving.
2. Geometry is good for visual thinking.
3. Calculus is good for understanding change.
4. Statistics is good for decision-making.
5. Number theory is good for logical discipline.
6. Linear algebra is good for modern science and engineering.
7. Discrete math is good for computer science.
8. Differential equations are good for modeling the real world.
9. Optimization is good for smart planning.
10. Graph theory is good for network thinking.
11. Set theory is good for structured reasoning.
12. Practice is good for mathematical fluency.
13. Curiosity is good for lifelong learning in math.
Life advice from Peter Thiel:
“People always say you should live every day as if it’s your last. I think you should live every day as if it’s going to go on forever.”
“You should treat people like you’re going to see them again in the future. You should start working on projects that may take a long time.”
