“If you make so much money, why do you have a trading community?”
I started it because I was teaching a few irl friends how to trade
Opened my X account and realized that 99% of the people teaching trading on here are BS
So decided to open my community up to everyone
Trading by yourself is just boring and I’ve been doing that for years now - having people you can talk with during the trading day makes it a lot more enjoyable
The main reason I’m posting on X is for the connections and to reach people on a similar level to me
I’m giving most of what the discord makes to friends who are helping me run it - I don’t need some discord subscription money, I’m worth $50m+ 😂
The best source of information is almost never AI
Especially for complex business advice
Ai is always too eager to give you the safest possible slop
If you actually want useful info
Go to Reddit
Go to Twitter
And ONLY read posts from 5+ years ago
Before everyone became a salesman
Before everyone had a SaaS
Before “value” got industrialized
Back when mfs would accidentally reveal a whole play
In a rant
in a reply
in some ugly forum post with 3 likes
That’s where the gold is
Old internet
Getting caught smoking by your parents is a canon event in every successful mans life
Not because smoking is “cool”
But because the moment hits you like a brick
I’m like 15
Backyard
night air
that stupid little ember glowing like it’s a lighthouse
I think I’m invisible
I think I’m in a movie
Then I hear footsteps on gravel
Slow
Deliberate
My heart starts doing parkour
Dad walks up behind me
Doesn’t yell
Doesn’t do the whole “what is this young man” monologue
Just stands there
Quiet
Like a judge watching you sentence yourself
I turn around with the cigarette still in my hand like an idiot
And in that exact moment
Something clicks
Not “oh no I’m in trouble”
But
“Oh.”
I’m a real person
I can do whatever the fuck I want
And the world will keep spinning either way
No lightning bolt
No dramatic soundtrack
Just me
the night
and the sudden realization that freedom is terrifying
So you make a choice
Not about the cigarette
About your life
You either become a man who pilots himself
Or you spend the next 20 years asking permission to exist

I’m gonna explain why this “AI one-shot Minecraft” rork thing isn’t even impressive
And it’s slightly annoying
Basically
There's now a million mfs who couldn’t ship a calculator app last week
About to start “building apps”
And they don’t even need a PC
But what they’re not telling you is
Games are the EASIEST thing to one shot
Because most of the logic is already built in
Apple hands you half the assets
-Characters
-Physics
-Buttons
Whatever
You can “one shot” a Crossy Road clone in your sleep
Congrats
I’ve one-shotted games too
Shooter clones,
Minecraft-ish stuff
The AI can do it easily
The only problem is what happens next:
Barrier to entry drops to the floor.
App Store gets flooded with 10,000 identical half working apps.
And nobody trusts anything anymore.
Ranking turns into a sewage competition
And even if none of them go anywhere
Even if they never promote
Even if they get 12 downloads total...
The marketplace still gets worse
Because every other dude now has “an app”
And most of them are shit
So consumers get trained to assume apps are shit
And now the real devs pay the price
For a crowd of people shipping slop at scale
This is why I’m not celebrating
Follow and I'll teach you to operate in a muddy market

Just blocked India from downloading any of my apps
Not personal (very personal)
0 buys
Then a tsunami of 1 star reviews
"WHY IS THIS $4.99/mo"
mfr
That's the model
So I flipped the switch in App Store Connect
My apps no longer show in India

I came home to my mom laying motionless on the couch
I ask her what’s wrong
She tells me “stressful day, I’m super tired, can’t even get up”
I reach into my pocket and pull out Semax and Bromantane
Tell her “take this, don’t ask questions”
5 mins later I come back to her cooking the best meal of my life, reorganizing the entire kitchen, deadlifting the fridge, and asking if I need help with my taxes
