    A cool example of how MJ's video on asymmetric risk just got me to think twice about what felt like a good chance in the moment, bad choice long-term

    As a student of human nature and reality, I think about stuff like this all the time. In Philosophy, the classic example is what do you do if you caught your wife cheating on you with your neighbor one day when you get home. Do you grab the handgun that's in the dresser and shoot them both or...

    A repeat of 1997. The inflation playbook is dead. Government spending is out of control and possible fed rate cuts. 755 billion dollars in combined private CapEx for 2026. Big opportunity for the next 2 years. Still early in the game to get in.

    College vs skilled trades. What is your take?

    QUESTION 
    I'd say 90% of college degrees are worthless because the information is outdated and employers found out they can just ignore and ghost your application. Not to mention the government found out It can print money endlessly and lie about jobs statistics. It's like that in pretty much every...

    I was talking to a guy the other day and he said he invested $100k in Rocket Lab ($RKLB) when it was $4 a share. Now it’s $128 a share. The first thing I asked was how did he stay invested. Then my first instinct was he probably knew someone there. He said his wife worked there. It’s not easy...

    When I was a little kid I had an electronic toy called “20 Questions”. The thing could “read your mind” and tell you exactly the idea or thing you are thinking about. You just had to answer 20 questions it would ask you. It would even figure it out before the 20 questions. It was always right...

    The Fed did an emergency rate cut on October 15, 1998. It sent the NDX flying from 1000 to 3700. And this was after the rate cut on June 6, 1995 that sent the NDX from 500 to 1000. This market regime is a repeat of the mid 1990s. You can buy cheap OTM LEAPS on index options and I believe you...

    I don’t try to predict things. At least I try not to. I ask myself how do I measure entropy and uncertainty. What information is encoded in the VIX and in prices that needs to be decrypted. You just have to be right within a certain range. Like 70% right.

    I’m stoked how all this turned out. 3 weeks ago I was down a lot. The only thing you can do is repair trades and hope the light appears at the end of the tunnel. Fear is always an opportunity. Even I was starting to get worried.

    Ok. A stock price is simple. You call your broker on your 1980s Motorola brick phone. Me: Hello? What’s the stock price? Him: $100 Me: Ok, I’ll buy “a lot” 100 shares. That’s it. No more information is needed. Now, the hard part is the complexity that updates stock prices.
