The counter-mainstream side of Twitter twisting my brain so much that I can now actually see people’s addictions, mass consumerism and urge for dopamine hits. Has really change my mind into being anti-herd and understanding my cravings as a consequence of environment influence.
I'm a firm believer that more of us in the programming field should explore the empowering world of Financial Independence and understand the potential of 'fuck-you' money. It's not just about accruing wealth, but about shaping a healthier, more balanced life.
As a teen, I began coding for cash before my university days. Funds were scarce, luxuries a rarity, but each penny saved was a step toward my financial independence. Through my university years, I continued this frugal living, strategically balancing youthful enjoyment and future financial stability.
Post-university, my life became a whirlwind of full-time work, consulting, and a side hustle in open source and blogging. For 13 long years, I found myself caught in a monotonous cycle of 60-80-hour work weeks. Every coding marathon, each client consultation, was a brick in my fortress of financial independence.
Then came the realization - I was financially successful, but life was slipping away. So, I decided to change. I diversified my wealth into real estate and early-stage startups, opting for equity-cash hybrid compensation, a strategy that supported startups while expanding my financial horizons.
Today, I am still a consultant and blogger, but now I cherry-pick my projects. The 'call-the-shots' money I've built allows me to dictate my work rhythm and live a balanced life.
Reflecting on this journey, it’s clear - financial independence isn’t just about 'call-the-shots' money, it's about valuing time and energy, juxtaposing the quest for wealth with the desire to truly live.
Above all, it's about the freedom to reject anything that doesn't contribute positively to my life.
I wake up, with the dread and fear of impending doom, I messed up a big contract, I feel like a loser, I imagine myself failing and I know it's only a question of time before the great reset and stricter controls
My GF brings me coffee - "How are you today?"
"Amazing" I respond
I just showed a client how to find 10,000 SaaS Founders to outreach to in 5 minutes.
He can easily generate 10 meetings/week and close 2 at 5k each, and scale to 100k/month in 60-90 days with this outbound process.
RT, Comment "SaaS" and I'll send you the process I showed him
@everton_dev @selftaughtstph IMO, there are pieces that are adjustable, since it’s not nearly as strict as VIPER f.e. Avoiding interactors, if there’s no logic for the use case pretty much removes boiler plate code if done correctly. In the end, every architecture is a set of guidelines, not rules
@everton_dev @selftaughtstph From my experience this has been the greatest architectural approach for huge projects size wise.
It was complex to learn and understand, but once things started clicking, I could see all the benefits of the approach, overall being very agile when it comes to big changes
Want to know how we book 40-60 demo calls per week with an SDR team?
RT & comment "send it" and I'll dm you the guide.

Coffee is overrated as a cognitive enhancer.
I've been biohacking to boost cognition for more than a decade.
Retweet for the best damned guide to cognitive enhancement the world has ever known.
P.S. Adderall didn't even make the list - #7 is way better

I made $900,000 last year in 5 different niches.
I have no clue about twitter but I know how to sell (a lot).
I made myself a tool called Deal Crafter to create high selling offers.
Usually it's $79 but today I give it away for free.
Just follow+retweet and I send it over.
We are live on the App Store🍎
Our mission is to empower people in real estate to do their best work. We started 4 months ago to write the first line of code. Today we are live in the App Store. More sweet features coming.👀
In 24 hours I’m going to give one random person that retweets this tweet $10,000 in Bitcoin! (Yup, gonna experiment with this instead of cash haha) Make sure you follow me so I can dm you if you win :)
Great new thing added to CryptoKit this year is `der/pemRepresentation` properties to most keys.
It's interesting you get a PKCS #8 format for both private and public keys. Which is different from OpenSSL which defaults to PKCS #1 for private and PKCS #8 for public.
