INSTEAD OF WATCHING AN HOUR OF NETFLIX.
This 60-minute MIT lecture will teach you more about building companies than every startup book you've read combined.
Bookmark it and give it an hour, no matter what.
Instead of watching an hour of Netflix, watch this 2 hour hour Stanford lecture will teach you more about how LLMs like ChatGPT and Claude are built than most people working at top AI companies learn in their entire careers.
Claude can now coach your body transformation like a $500/hour personal trainer from Equinox.
Now you don't have to spend on the gym membership, the meal prep service, or the $200/month online coach.
Here are 8 prompts that design your workouts, fix your nutrition, and build a lean, strong body in 90 days:

Whatever you do, don't open a bank account in your own name.
I didn't know this until my dad stopped me the day I got my first paycheck.
I'd done everything right. Got paid. Went to the bank, opened a savings account in my name, and deposited the whole thing.
My Boss looked at me and said, “You just put a target on your back.”
Then I had no idea what he meant.
He explained that the moment your money sits in your name, it's exposed.
Creditors can see it. Lawyers can find it. Anybody with a judgment against you can freeze it and take it completely legally.
So here's what he told me to do:
Step 1. Go to the IRS and apply for an EIN.
A tax ID number, but for a trust instead of a person.
Step 2. Select a revocable trust as your entity type. List yourself as both the grantor and trustee. It gives you full control of everything.
Step 3.
Take that EIN to any bank and open an account under that trust name, not yours.
The money is still yours. You spend it, move it, and invest it however you want. But on paper, it's not attached to you.
If someone sues you, they can't touch what they can't see.
This is the system intelligent billionaires have always used.
Own nothing on paper, control everything in reality.

David f*cking Goggins, what a line…
“When your entire day is fucked up, make sure that you achieve something positive before lights out. You’ll probably have to stay up a bit later to read, study, get a workout in, or clean the house. Whatever it takes to go to bed in the black, get it done.“
