I’ve come to the realization that every free & prosperous society will always have a contingent who is enamored with Socialism and feels like things would be better/more equitable if it were adopted.
The irony then of Socialism is that the only places in the world where nobody wants it are the ones that have it.

I don’t need to make millions.
I just need enough to pick up my kid at 1 PM on a random Wednesday, while the teachers look at me like thinking I’m either unemployed or a fucking drug dealer.
Then grab an ice cream with her and walk down the beach while everyone else is still staring at the clock waiting to go home.
That’s my definition of rich.
Keep the Lambo.
I want my fucking time.

It is your duty as a man to never give into the 24/7 business casual/golf apparel trap

I sat my 7-year-old down and explained to him that dying industries (legacy media, academia, DNC politics) ride algorithmically driven cultural hysterias both because it’s the only way they can stay relevant and because their business models demand it.
He looked up at me and with a tear in his eyes asked, ‘so, for the sake of the journos, the assistant professors, and Dem Politics Inc, we’re obligated to attest to the moral urgency of the hysteria and act completely emotionally dysregulated?’
‘Yes,’ I answered him. ‘Yes, that’s right.’
And then we both sat quietly.

The best-performing asset in history spends ~96% of its life below its all-time high.
Read it again.
Bitcoin chops, grinds sideways, bleeds, and frustrates holders most of the time.
Then, almost no warning, it rips to a new ATH in weeks and goes quiet.
96% is the wait. 4% is where all the returns live.
Keep holding.

You just need to take a look around, and it's obvious that if you simply manage to not be constantly angry, judgmental, and anxious around your kids, you are already doing a better job than most parents.

Intelligence is actually a liability if you don’t have enough courage to balance it out. You will have ideas about what to do, but you will watch other people do it. You will have smart things to say, but you won’t say them, and you will accumulate anxiety. You will have a good idea of the life you want, but you will never build it. The smarter you are, the more courage you need if you want to live a happy life.

Remember how eagerly the press swallowed stories about how Twitter was going to crash after Elon bought it? How could they have believed that someone who could run rocket and car companies couldn't run a forum?

If you truly believed in a 10% chance of human extinction in 3 years, you would not be spending your time selling and integrating it into a B2B CRM SaaS platform
Watch what they do, not what they say

I've been covering politics since 2008. The anti-AI-regulation takes from the left (by no means all/most of the left; Bernie disagrees!!!) might be the most literally incomprehensible political position I've ever encountered.

JENSEN HUANG: “We don't welcome political discourse inside our company. Take it home … We're bipartisan. We want America to succeed … The discourse about race and religion and politics and all of that stuff, we tell people do it outside the company. It's not for us.”

Just so you know, your average friend
Hates AI
Hates crypto
Has over $100k in debt
Thinks protests will fix society
Pays huge interest on credit cards for food delivery
Keeps savings in a checking account
Thinks voting more will fix the system
How are they supposed to understand what is happening?
Let alone understand Bitcoin.

In her latest sciolistic letter to me, @SenWarren made it clear that she knows even less about foreign exchange markets than she does about banking.
What is equally shocking, but not surprising: not a single member of the media mob has a rudimentary-enough level of financial market literacy to spot her remedial error.
To reiterate: under @POTUS, the United States delivers for America’s trusted partners.
For a fuller explanation, I recommend Senator Warren take any entry level course in international finance for her and her staff, or I can personally give her a tutorial on Foreign Exchange for Dummies. Although I am not holding my breath, I hope her next letter will demonstrate that she has learned the difference between a currency purchase and a swap or a loan.
