Author of The AI Ghostwriting Business | I turn ideas and stories from founders, executives, athletes, and experts into books, memoirs, biographies, and IP.
“If you make millions trading, why do you sell courses or subscriptions?”
Because being successful in one business doesn’t mean you lose the ambition to build another.
Look at Dr. Michael Burry @michaeljburry. He publishes paid investment research through Cassandra Unchained, which has more than 300,000 subscribers across its free and paid readership. He says himself that he enjoys writing and sharing investment ideas. Success in the markets and selling your expertise can co-exist.
Ray Dalio wrote Principles. Peter Lynch wrote One Up on Wall Street. Successful investors have been putting their knowledge into books for decades. Publishing that knowledge gives other people a way to learn from their experience.
For me, there are several reasons.
First, I’m also an entrepreneur. I enjoy building businesses, developing products, and working with a team. We don’t expect Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, or Mark Zuckerberg to lose their ambition once they become wealthy.
Why should a trader’s ambition end at a brokerage account?
Second, there’s legacy. A profitable trade adds to my account. A useful book, a well-built platform, or an educational community can have value for years. I want to build something that helps people understand the markets and continues to matter beyond my own trading.
Third, having more than one source of income makes business sense. Trading involves uncertainty, capital, and risk. Making more money through trading can require taking more exposure, and good opportunities aren’t unlimited. Building another business gives me another way to grow without simply increasing the size of my trades.
Fourth, education and technology take real work. Research, market data, software development, teaching, and customer support all cost money. A subscription helps fund the people and infrastructure required to provide those services consistently. My personal trading success doesn’t eliminate those costs.
And yes, I want those businesses to be profitable. I’m comfortable saying that. Helping people, enjoying the work, and earning a profit are compatible goals.
It’s fair to question a trading educator’s claims. Ask for evidence of their trading record. Examine the quality of the education, the usefulness of the tools, and whether the promises are realistic. Those standards should apply to everyone, including me.
But selling a course or subscription, by itself, tells you nothing about whether someone can trade.
I’m a trader, an author, and an entrepreneur. I want to trade well, share what I’ve learned, and build useful businesses.
I don’t see any reason to choose only one.
Took me until 40 to really CARE about the food I ate:
Hard to go back to knowing just how much FAT, SUGAR & CARBS you eat in EVERYTHING that is even remotely not cooked at home.
It's wild.
In the ’80s and ’90s, they said fat was bad.
In the 2000s, they said carbs were bad.
In the 2010s, they said sugar was bad.
Now in the 2020s, they’re saying seed oils are bad.
Every decade there's a new health villain when, in reality, people stay healthy get there by eating mainly whole foods, walking, and lifting weights.
The older I get, the more I realize:
A $150,000 Mercedes Benz and a $20,000 Toyota can both take you to the same place.
A $1 million mansion and a $100,000 house both give you a place to sleep.
A $10,000 Rolex and a $20 watch both tell the same time.
Stop trying to impress people. Start living a peaceful life.
Happiness is not about expensive cars, big houses, or fancy clothes.
It's about good health, a happy family, financial freedom, and peace of mind.
I used to say just a few years ago, the only education you should get is engineering, engineering, and engineering. I don't believe that anymore because storytelling, photography, video editing, and creators, are changing the landscape for both large and small businesses by acquiring customers. It's not a $48,000 career anymore, it's more like a $400,000 career because they’re doing the contracts with multiple companies, showing them how to reduce their customer acquisition cost and increase their return on ad spend. That's the opportunity. It's amazing what's happening to the arts.
Warning to my 40 years olds:
Nobody gives a f*ck about your experience, potential, or credentials anymore. You’re either creating daily proof-of-work and are deep in the game, or you’re full of sh*t and nobody trusts you.
In a world full of boys chasing women, drugs, and sex.
Be the man who is busy fixing his finances, body, mind, and a strong relationship with God. Trust me, You'll go far in life.
BEFORE YOU DIE AS A MAN, DO THIS:
1. See your six pack, at least once.
2. Get strong enough to carry your own weight, AND your family's.
3. Learn how to cook REAL food.
4. Be able to run, climb, swim and move your body WITHOUT PAIN.
5. Build a life you don't need to escape from.
6. Wake up at 40 with ZERO medications.
7. Be the kind of father your kids want to be.
8. Stay strong, capable and independent
9. Be comfortable without constant stimulation.
10. Take responsibility for your health BEFORE you're forced to.
Google Brain founder Andrew Ng:
"Prompting will be dead in 6 months"
"Loops and graphs are replacing it"
In just 2 hours, he shows how to build agents that work, learn, and improve on their own
LLMs → Agents → Loops → Graphs → Self-Improving Systems
The first 15 minutes alone are more valuable than most $500 AI courses
Most people are still learning prompts while AI engineering is already moving beyond them
Watch the lecture first
Then read the full guide to loops and graphs below ↓
HOW TO READ PEOPLE
1) The mature → apologize without excuses.
2) Liars → promise a lot.
3) The jealous → count other people’s wins.
4) Great minds → talk about ideas.
5) The fake → agree with everyone.
6) The strong → know how to forgive.
7) The insecure → need applause for existing.
8) The noble → help in silence.
9) The bitter → collect old wounds.
10) Small minds → talk about others.
11) The disciplined → do it when no one watches.
12) The ignorant → think they know everything.
13) Happy people → stay out of other people’s lives.
14) The brave → admit their fears.
15) The loyal → speak well of you in your absence.
16) The weak → look for someone to blame.
17) The confident → don’t announce themselves.
18) Hypocrites → are always overly nice.
19) The wise → know when to stay silent.
20) The envious → put others down.
Alibaba co-founder Jack Ma tells himself the same thing every day:
Today is tough.
Tomorrow is tougher.
The day after tomorrow is beautiful.
Most people quit tomorrow evening. Don't be most people.
I'm BEGGING you...
- learn a high income online skill
- find an agency or successful entrepreneur
- do the work upfront for free
- take responsibility off their plate
- keep a running doc of learnings
- always come to every meeting prepared
- this is how you compress decades
Bill Gates: people saying AI will create more jobs don’t understand what’s coming.
“Once AI becomes reliable enough to do the work, it starts replacing people.”
“Once you replace human cognition as a scarce element, you blow it away.”
“Working 24 hours a day, reading more, knowing every language.”
“This isn’t like the PC. This is like evolutionary history.”
“It’s like the aliens really are here. They just didn’t come in spacecraft.”
Highly intelligent people are deep observers. They figure you out immediately, But act like they see nothing. They give you the space to talk, overstep, and show your true colors. By the time they respond, they have already calculated exactly who you are. Discernment is their best friend

🚨LATEST: Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei says AI could wipe out HALF of entry-level white-collar jobs within 1–5 years
“50% of all entry-level lawyers, consultants, and finance professionals will be completely wiped out within the next 1–5 years,” Amodei says.
He argues AI will rapidly automate much of the work currently performed by junior professionals, fundamentally reshaping how these industries hire and operate.
One of the hardest lessons I learned as a founder is that friendship can’t replace execution.
When you’re building a company, people are depending on you. Your employees, your customers, and everyone who believed in the vision. Sometimes that means making a decision you never wanted to make.
You can still respect someone personally and recognize they’re no longer the right person for the business.
I'm begging you:
• Go on google trends
• Find problem people are struggling with
• Turn those problems into digital assets
• Without revealing your name
• Without showing your face
I shared this with a bartender, he made $31K in a single month.
Here's how it works:
