my main 2 goals are to become the absolute best trader I can be while being in the best possible shape

health = wealth

[threadguy @notthreadguy]

the only way to move forward is to declare a multi decade time horizon for yourself to "make it." anything less is blatant insecurity and a self induced handicap. The permanent underclass meme has done insurmountable damage to young people.

violently reject it and save yourself. Anyone that disagrees has slop to sell, just get good.

i've spent an unhealthy amount of time on agentic video editing, here's everything i learned:

video editing is 100% solved. we're pushing out hundreds of videos a day with agents and have replaced almost all of our editors

drop every limiting belief you have about agentic editing, any style of creative is possible

here are the best models for video editing right now:

1. GPT 6 Astra (best taste by far, but also the most expensive)
2. Opus 5.5
3. Gemini 4 Argon

the best all around model is Opus 5.5

and don't waste your time on editing app MCPs like CapCut or DaVinci Resolve. they're slow and burn a ton of tokens compared to a custom workflow built for your specific use case

all editing is moving to the terminal + organized file systems

the most valuable (and most time consuming) part is having your best editors train your harness so it learns from its mistakes and can one-shot creatives

your best editor becomes 100x more leveraged once you teach them how to use Opus 5.5 in their workflow and build skills around their process

in 6 months most teams will be 1 creative engineer managing everything with agents

what a time to be alive..

Dan Koe casually explained how ONE PERSON can build a $75K/month AI business in 2027:

[Machina @EXM7777]

if you master AI video generation rn, i don't see how you're not printing money...

seriously, the opportunities are everywhere:
- full video production agencies you can run solo
- automated tiktok/instagram content
- faceless youtube channels
- AI ads for businesses

anyone can generate video... but almost nobody has taste

(and taste isn't something you're born with, it's something you build by studying what's good)

spend 2-3 weeks just watching, analyzing, deconstructing great videos...

you can become the person businesses pay for, not another slop producer

the market is desperate for quality and almost nobody's providing it

[Hades @0xHvdes]

this is exactly the kind of talent startups are (really) HUNGRY to hire

distribution, storytelling, understanding why ppl stop scrolling and share something

if you're good at it, i'm begging you to take it seriously:

- study people like Victor. break down their hooks, formats, and how they explain a product.
- be PROACTIVE. share your ideas, show your work, and cold DM founders, agency owners, and growth teams with something useful.
- experiment with formats, document the results, and figure out what worked and why.

don't just send "i can help with content."

send a breakdown of what's missing, a few ideas worth testing, and examples of what you've already done, give them a reason to hire you before they even post the role

Which would you build first: the character, or the thing it sells? https://t.co/viej1b9t6W

2/ Train yourself to go from 10 to 40 to 100 hours of focused work a week. I did this for months building an automated trading system from scratch. 5am-10pm 7days/week

99% of people need #WorkLifeBalance or whatever, and that's great. But I'm talking to the people on a mission.

His #1 distribution channel is Meta ads (119 running right now)

Really interesting format he’s using:

Two weeks ago a life changing amount of money was wired into my bank account from the sale of my business.

Since I'm no longer a competitor in this particular arena, I'm gonna drop some sauce on how I completely mogged an entire industry on meta ads.

I'm going to be vague so I don't dox myself, but here it goes:

Feel like equities are just far more interesting to trade and have been for quite some time.

Can probably just park some small % of port in HYPE/BTC and outperform most active crypto traders while focusing on the blowout Anthropic IPO//Equities potential top

HOW TO BUILD YOUR AI SERVICES BUSINESS (targeting Main Street "boring businesses")

In 39 minutes:
- why you shouldn't sell ai automation, seo/aeo, or ad services
- why you shouldn't go after HVAC and plumbing companies
- why you should sell the ai reinvention of a $15,000-$20,000 service for $3,000-$5,000 with SOFTWARE margins

and exactly how I would do it...with a full funnel for a roofing company included

[Flood @ThinkingUSD]

Had some recently ask what they should read to become a better investor.

Highly recommend reading BRK-A shareholder letters +/- 1 year around a significant crash.
