I'm Sam. I run Long-Range Leadership™ (LRL) in Nashville.
You have a problem. I fix it. You pay me.
People, sales, cash: the stuff owners stop seeing. I post the sayings I 've run my life by.
First one: Profit is an opinion. Cash is a fact.

It's not predatory. It's an effective rationing device. I was at the airport when this happened. Those who needed to get out right away were able to pay. Those who didn't need to get out right away waited.
In the absence of surge pricing, the queue would have been effectively random, and not sorted at all by need.
In other words, surge pricing is efficient, fair, and just.

If someone invents a machine that makes food 50% cheaper and becomes a billionaire, society hasn't lost a billion dollars.
We've gained cheaper food.
The fact that someone got rich solving a problem doesn't mean the rest of us got poorer.
Wealth creation isn't theft.

Schools in America are a jobs program for unemployable adults. They are not built to teach kids. They are built to absorb excess labor supply.
1 million adults work as "school administrators."
Meanwhile the number of students in public schools has barely moved in 20+ years!

The next Einstein is not sitting in Hyderabad making poop figurines just waiting for American magic soil to unleash his genius
The next Einstein is in an American classroom being prescribed Ritalin, being told his ancestors were racist savages and having legislation crafted to deny him access to universities and high paying jobs
HOLY CRAP 🚨: Abby Phillip: “I do think the H-1B program needs some attention. It needs some degree of reform.”
Kevin O’Leary: “Abby, do you want the next Einstein to come to America or Shanghai?”
Abby Phillip: “I’m not fighting against an H-1B visa, folks. I’m the daughter of immigrants. Both of my parents are naturalized citizens of this country... There are real concerns that people have about companies that abuse the system.”
Kevin O’Leary: “We’re talking about genius, bringing 65K genius to America.”
Abby Phillip: “Kevin, you know it’s not just genius. Sometimes they’re abusing the system and bringing in medium to low wage workers [to replace Americans].”

International law is clear: Under Article 19 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, civilian hospitals lose their special protection when used for acts harmful to the enemy outside their humanitarian duties, including terrorist military operations.

The government school system has become more of a jobs program for adults than an education initiative for kids.

در دادگاه از این فرد هندی میپرسند تو در نپال به دنیا نیامدی؟
میگوید: نه
می پرسند پس به دولت آمریکا دروغ گفتی که در نپال به دنیا آمدی
میگوید: خیر! این اسمش دروغ نیست. قسمتی از فرهنگ ماست. از بچگی در فرهنگمان یاد گرفتیم اینجوری حرف بزنیم عمل کنیم

The bottom 1% takes more of my money than the top 1% and it’s not even close.

As a human, I wonder why we spend so much money on public schools and get such poor results.
