I’m building a company from scratch. Not just showing “look what this ai does”, but actually making an ecosystem of products that will earn money. I’m not scared, I don’t scroll news, I slow down, I feel the moment, I’m abundance, I’m confidence, I’m strength, I’m wisdom. Thanks.
@DanielOstX At first, I wanted to say it was New York, but it doesn't really look like it. Because of the fog, it looks like London, but London isn't that big, so my answer is Seoul
I talked to a startup today that was approached by investors when they weren't raising. They were lured into talking to them, and the investors wasted a year of their time before ghosting them, during which the distraction caused their growth rate to shrink by two thirds.
The main thing I’ve learned in 40-plus years as an entrepreneur is that nobody knows anything.
Nobody knows if your idea is good or bad. You don’t know if it’s good or bad. You need to test your idea, trial it, collide it with reality.
That’s the only way to learn.
Beautiful story, thank you. I hope you get a $1 million
Reminded me of when I was 10 and accidentally discovered I could sell shit I didn't own
A kid from school said he wanted a BMX. I wasn't thinking about business, I just thought, huh, maybe I can make something happen here
Found some guy willing to sell his beat up BMX for $20. Told him to hold it for me. Then went back to the buyer
"I can get you a BMX for $50."
"Nah. For that money I'll just buy a new one from the store."
And I don't know why, but something clicked. He didn't want a bike. He wanted something else
"This one's different. A pro BMX rider used it. Won competitions on it. That's where he learned his tricks."
Complete bullshit. I made it up on the spot
But he bought it. And not reluctantly, he was excited about it
Months later I heard he was competing on that BMX. Actually doing tricks. He'd become the story I sold him
Years later, when we were adults, I told him the truth. He laughed and said he was so happy riding that bike because he believed the story. It actually helped him. He never forgot that first, most meaningful BMX
Maybe the fake legend gave him real confidence. Idk
I made $30 that day and learned two things:
People don't buy the thing. They buy who they think they'll become with it
And you don't need to own something to sell it
Took me another decade to learn that second one is called dropshipping
I put together the ultimate battle of crypto Twitter:
128 of the biggest traders, builders, and meme legends.
The names everyone knows — the people who moved markets, built narratives, and shaped CT
Now it’s time to choose the true king (or queen)
