Read if you're not as rich as you want.
These are your actual odds at "making it" and what you must do.
In the US: 1 in 1,000 make over a million a year
1 in 11,000 over 10 mil.1 in 35,000 over 20
The Truth: If you want to "make it," you must be a freak. You must be an absolute outlier of behavior.
The hardest worker out of your entire high school class for a mil.
The best person out of every high school class in your city for 10+ a year.
You don’t get to keep normal.
You don’t get to keep balance.
If there’s 1,000 people in a room, you have to be better than 999 of them.
If you want 20 mil+, there needs to be an entire 35,000-person army dead around your feet for you to make it.
You. Don’t. Get. To. Be. Like. The 999 (or the 34,999).
Stop thinking you get to be human and balanced.
By default you will be completely unrelatable to anyone you meet or know.
You are going to need to operate and move differently than anyone you know.
Different than all your childhood, high school, and college friends.
Different than your parents and family.
You will NOT meet anyone who relates to you, your sacrifices, or ideals without EXTREME effort.
You are, without irony, trying to be a "chosen one."
By default, 99.999% of people will not understand you and your behavior.
You will be seen as extremely unreasonable.
I tell you this because I meet too many people who think they can make it and still behave like a normie.
They even resent this and try to find ways to make it while still being normal.
But when you look at these extreme odds, you can't help but draw one conclusion...
You are going to have to be extreme.
You must be the 1 person in 11,000 willing to give up the most and push the hardest.
Normal is done for you.
Embrace your extremism.
Make zero concessions.
Relish in it and embrace it.
Don't fight it.
Lean into it.
Everyone wants what you want. Everyone.
But only an insanely tiny, small number of the most unreasonable, odd people will get it.
If you want that to be you...
Quadruple down on your unreasonable oddness.
It's non-negotiable.
Your just gonna wake up here soon and ETH will be closing in on $4k..gone...trains out...bull well under way.
The market is about to erupt. The pressure is building and about to bust.
In past cycles the pump came from us SPECULATING all the big money would move to blockchain and DEFI.
This cycle the pump will come from ALL the big money in the world ACTUALLY MOVING to blockchain and defi.
You've seen speculation bulls. A true demand bull will blow it away.
If you think this is hard.
In the 2020 run Elon left a mean tweet reply about bitcoin…
And we dumped 35% in hours. Entire altcoins market wiped out.
Your entire portfolio= poof from 1 random Elon Tweet.
This is nothing.
All this did was give us a better trampoline for the next leg up.
The bill will get through. Rates will lower. Crypto will surge.
We will buy alligators and expensive fine luxury woods.
Obvious.
Alcohol and Socializing It's honestly sad it took me so long to realize this.
From 20–35, I mostly kept alcohol in my life every weekend for socializing. This is the #1 reason I hear for most people as well.
Here's what really made it obvious, stopped it & helps... a story.
One time I got invited to this mastermind. Really, really high-powered dudes. Some now billionaires.
Everyone sat around and talked shop aggressively about all the big things they were doing. Naturally, around 6pm I started pouring myself some Jack and Cokes.
About two in, I noticed I was the only person drinking. Everyone was way too rabidly obsessed with growth, making billions, taking over the world.
I then thought to myself... holy shit. I will never be able to keep up with my friends/the guys here with a drinking habit. They are moving at 10,000 mph every day, 100%... and I'm waking up hungover and stumbling into Monday each week.
It was also a tad... embarrassing lol. With 2 drinks loaded I was instantly on another frequency of stupid while everyone was moving at lightspeed.
And here's the revelation you should really take to heart:
If you're hanging in circles that make you need to drink, you're hanging in the wrong circles.
How it should be (if you're a growth-obsessed person):
Your circle should be such higher-power, ambitious dudes that you feel dumb drinking around them.
I'm not saying don't ever drink.
I'm saying drinking as a steady habit is a massive hindrance that you just don't see with really high-level dudes.
They can't perform and do it.
Imagine the top NFL players in a room during the playoffs.
They will not be drinking.
This is how top guys operate. Like Tom Brady... in the playoffs... all the time.
The issue many—including myself—fell into is: you grow up drinking with friends. But if you are hyper ambitious, you quickly outgrow those circles, but still want to be social. So you continue to do it because that’s what normal people do.
But you're not trying to be normal.
You're trying to win in the most mental, competitive sport in the world.
Thus, I encourage you to just... stop socializing for a bit.
Work till you are at a crazy high level and ONLY make friends who make you embarrassed for not winning.
I'm not talking shame-goody-goody-SOBER-holier-than-thou junk.
I'm talking you sit down with them and they just find it confusing why they would slow themselves down.
Like, "Bro, I'm trying to win the Super Bowl—aren't you too?"
They don't care either way. It's just super not a priority.
Then bring these people into your life. You quickly find yourself NOT DRINKING intentionally to socialize, because the frequency/demand the people are operating on is not congruent with the habit.
There are too many interesting ideas and ambitions to share.
Too much money to make.
Too little time to make it.
If you're not "addicted" but consistently find yourself doing it in groups... this will nix the problem real quick.
The problem/trigger is you get around people and feel "oh, time to pour a drink"...
You, in short, need to find people that make this habit somewhat embarrassing...
Not increase it by ALSO having the same habit and reinforcing it.
FYI:
I also don't regret always regret it. This picture is of me flying my dad to NYC to get dinner. We got an exceptional buzz on the way there. It was a great memory.
I am referring to the constant social group drinking that most feel extreme pressure to par take in.
Every giant company is buying Bitcoin in billion $$ clips.
Crypto IPOs are about to be the hottest thing in finance.
Every giant institution is building stable coins/integrating defi.
No you fucking dork. We are not going back down. This is the super cycle. Up.
Video will likely be going up tomorrow.

Notis ON and say something interesting
Let’s kick start Alt Season
If you’re in your 20s, someday you’ll be 37 like me. So read this.
I just turned 37. In my twenties, I thought my life would be over at this point lol.
Ironically, I’m in the best shape, mental state, wealthier than I could of ever imagined, healthiest, and imo most attractive I’ve ever been in my life (before you roll your eyes, I was gross in my 20s… not hard lol).
I literally have everything I ever wanted. Including a wonderful wife.
But only because I sacrificed.
No one I know personally growing up went to the extremes I did to learn about health, self-development, social skills (which I had zero of). No one tried as hard or as long as me to get rich.
I’m not saying look at me, I’m special.
I’m saying I sacrificed a lot, took a lot of risk, and was very uncomfortable all the time.
And what I’m trying to convey to you is that the sacrifices you’re taking or considering taking are 500x worth it. You should sacrifice more actually, and do it with glee.
Go live in a $500-a-month apartment in Thailand and burn everything at the altar of your character arc.
I literally wish I had just done that at 20, trained Muay Thai and BJJ, and built harder. Big life regrets.
Anyways.
People (losers) will tell you you’re being crazy and missing out. Stop being money-focused. Stop trying, being so vain. Live a little.
They are wrong. Really fucking wrong. So unbelievably wrong that I would literally jump off a bridge if I had to switch lives with them and suffer the consequences of their life of no sacrifice.
You are missing zero. You will regret zero. Proudly go psycho monk mode and become as great as you can be.
You won’t regret missing getting drunk at the same bar 500 times with people you don’t even talk to at 40. You won’t regret missing the pointless dating. You won’t regret taking risk and failing.
You will deeeeeply regret at my age not sacrificing. You will start to see the decade of choices deeply and permanently in your and other men’s—you knows—lives.
And you will see this post is the truth.
After your twenties, the lifestyle, women, and all that shit you want will figure itself out and just come to you.
Hell, it’ll probably come to you in your early 20s and try to distract you because you’re building up so much power.
Keep sacrificing. It’s all completely worth it, and you’ll realize it’s actually the most fun part.
I work and sacrifice more now than I ever did… because it’s awesome pursuing the best possible potential for yourself personally.
Anyways, eat the shit. Skip everything. Picture your perfect character arc and light everything else on fire to get it.
And when you are at an age in the future that seems terrifying now, you will actually be enjoying the best times of your life.
Move fast, young man. You will be an old man who’s about to become an even older man soon.
Last bull market we made so much money the price of Lambos and Richard Milles literally doubled across America.
We are not in a bubble till we see shit like that happening again.
I’m being 100% for real.
People hate sacrifice. They hate risk. They hate long timeframes.
Which is why these are the gatekeepers to success.
To crush life you must do what others will not. 99% of others will not do these.
So by embracing them with glee you will beat 99% of people.
