    Sigmund Freud said if you can overcome the fear of death, you basically overcome all your other fears. I always think that our fears and anxieties are driven by what we think we “know” and expect and yet death is something that always comes out of nowhere. Death is built into the very...

    Nothing wrong with focusing on your self-actualization and freedom. You probably can’t build anything “big” without that anyways. You don’t have to be on the cover of Forbes. And to build anything huge you are limited by how finite-scarce resources are allocated. While in theory “anything is...

    Any information or knowledge ultimately has to be integrated by that individual. So, it’s highly dependent on that person. Of course just reading won’t make you successful. It’s all dependent on you.

    We should make a thread on the worst investment decisions we’ve made or the worst unrealized losses we’ve had. I have a few embarrassing ones. Although that VIX was definitely on to something if we were higher in both SP and VIX. Don’t trade unless your not willing to get some form of PTSD LOLz.

    MSM or Corporate Media?

    OFF-TOPIC 
    I used to think along the same lines but from a game theory perspective in makes sense to engage in conspiracies. The closer you get to the power structure the more tempting it is to be dishonest or abusive to maximize or maintain power and profit. Saying there are no conspiracies is like...

    I keep an old fashioned notebook and write down everything. Any tip or good quote I hear I write it down and attribute it to the person who said it. Very important habit. Write down 50 actions steps you need to do in order to realize a goal. It really works.

    WTF is wrong with these stupid tech companies. There was a time when they were respectable. But now it’s clear there is another agenda. Big opportunities in this space for those willing to step up to the plate.

    Here’s a clue: Entrepreneurship is one of the economic inputs to production. You are maximizing utility. Although interestingly it was removed from some college textbooks. And now it’s just land labor and capital. They don’t want entrepreneurs and private ownership LOL.

    I’m a #1. I can clearly remember and visualize the color of an apple in my mind. Your mind creates the response to the wave length of light that hits your eye. Then your brain chooses what to keep and what to throw out.

    Yeah of course they’re gonna print more money and push rates lower(they’ll try). They printed money the last 10 years even with unemployment low. And the stock market went up like a penny stock. But if they’re gonna push their stupid spending bills through the senate, interest rates will have to...

    Imagine if we have another recession. Yields are pointing to slower growth. Also, if you have fixed-income securities don’t think rising yields will protect you. If it wasn’t for the Fed that 10 year would probably be 6.5%. Say goodbye to the US reserve currency status. Rates are gonna...
