    One of the things that helped me the most was the following conversation I had with a CEO once: "What if you're going bankrupt?", I asked - Then I'll just build another company, he answered as if it was a given. Something shifted in me that day.

    Starting a business in a saturated Market . Is it too late to start a herbal tea brand?

    IDEA

    Did you test demand? I would do that. You can test demand for free by creating content and see if people are interested in it.

    Part of me would like these flying saucers to be from a magical world a la Harry Potter or Artemis Fowl, rather than coming out of space. The other part thinks it's something used to cover much more dramatic news events.

    To use a painting metaphor, let's say that all kinds of art were tolerated. I was a street tagger and that worked well with tagging amateurs. But now they want everyone to be Leonardo Da Vinci. That's not something I can do.

    Well, Medium changed its algorithm and my earnings were divided by 5 as a result. I knew this would happen, it was too good to be true. But it was nice the time it lasted!

    I don't get why people travel in summer. It's hot, expensive, full of people, full of plane disturbances and strikes, and if you live in a northern country, summer is the best time to enjoy it!

    It's not about what *you* think, but what the customer thinks. Do you want to fix this problem or not? Then sell what people will buy, not what *you* want to sell. Side note: you can always sell the diet plan as a bonus with the cream.

    The mainstream "get-rich" narrative has evolved over the years a bit like that: First there was FIRE, rendered possible by one of the longest bull markets that ever was. Then there was FatFIRE, fueled by the startup and crypto craze. It failed, so people went on to be... Digital nomads. It...
