Grooming for men:
Make your haircut a standing appointment. Shave or trim your beard every day. Clip your nails. Smell clean, not just good.
Teeth first. Befriend your dentist.
Iron and mend your clothes. Take care of your shoes — they can take you anywhere.
Keep it simple.
Style :
Finding your style is finding your uniform. Consistency creates identity.
What actually matters, in order: cut > fabric > everything else > brand. (No logo — you're not a billboard)
Dress the part, don't cosplay it. Context is key.
Keep it simple.
Skincare :
Your skin talks. Eat clean food, drink enough water, go sleep early. Change takes time.
SPF is the one — broad-spectrum, SPF 30+, mineral.
Routine to build around: a gentle cleanser, a form of Vitamin A your skin can tolerate. Less is more.
Keep it simple.
Investment :
- Order : debt-free, then emergency fund, then invest
- Low-fee global ETFs, some cash, a little conviction
(eg : 40% MSCI WORLD, 30 % MSCI Emerging market, 20% cash, 10% conviction)
- Automate, shut up, and wait. Better: forget the account exists.
Keep it simple.
Real finance liberty for employees :
- 6 month emergency fund (concept : fuck you money - Taleb)
- High savings rate ≥ 30% (concept : Pay yourself first -David Bach)
- Creation of non-salary income sources (leverage -Naval)
Keep it simple.
