@MJTruthUltra What the hell even is your position here?
So because he's an actor, there's no sense in what he's saying. How much would gun violence related deaths reduce in America if they were red flag laws & is that number so small that it's unreasonable to discuss?
Focus on what you can control.
Build something. Anything.
A product. Yourself. A family. Your community. A team. Relationships.
Or help someone else build theirs.
Don’t complain. Don’t play the victim.
Ever.
What are you building?

as a man, you want to be evaluated in a setting you define. not in someone else’s marketplace, not in a feed. & certainly not on some dumb app.
basically you want to make sure it’s not in a room where the ranking system rewards the shallowest possible read of you, like a police lineup.
what you need a backdrop that reveals what is actually compelling about you like your taste, your judgment, your discipline, your humor, your presence, & most important your way of seeing the world.
if you let modern systems define the frame, they will reduce you to the most superficial version of yourself & then judge you for it.
SpaceX raised only $12B of capital before going public. With that $12B, they revolutionized the rocket industry, built a global satellite network, and created arguably the most innovative company of all time.
The federal government spends $12B every 15 hours and still can’t get its shit together. Prior to SpaceX, NASA was sending astronauts into space on Soviet-era Russian Soyuz capsules.
So no, I don’t find Elon’s wealth to be a problem, and I wouldn’t trust Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders to allocate a single dollar of it.
Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sanders, and the rest aren’t dumb enough to actually think Elon Musk has a trillion dollars in cash waiting to be taxed.
They just think their followers are dumb enough to think that. And they are.
@SahilBloom Always recall Nadals speech where he spoke about only winning about 54% of the points in his career. Which is nuts to conceptualise as he’s clearly goat status, but the idea was that irrespective of how great or shitty the last point. All that matters is the point right now.
These are the magnitudes you need to be thinking on. yes you. you the intern. you the student. you the guy working a dead end job.
Throughout history, people who were dumber and weaker than you have changed the world in unimaginable ways, because they had high agency and a cogent grand vision.
nothing is stopping you.
