If working a job won’t make you rich (and it won’t), you might as well throw your salary at a coin that could 100x.
You’re not buying property anytime soon, let alone flipping it for a 2–5x.

The person who needs it least always wins the negotiation.
Because power isn't about status or cash, it's about walkaway strength.
If you’re desperate, you’ll fold.
If you’re calm, clear, and willing to walk, you control the entire frame.

My hot take:
Sharing income and assets only makes sense if both (or all) parties generate income from the same venture.
Not just “we’re in a relationship” or “we love each other.”
That’s sentiment, not structure.

People wonder why they aren't progressing....
It's so fucking obvious!
Most people never win because they fake effort and call it work...
They go to the gym, but spend more time talking than lifting.

"I don’t have the money" isn’t a real reason — it’s a reflex.
People addicted to drugs find money every single day.
Single mums skip meals so their kids can eat.
When something truly matters, people always find a way.

Forget rental income, dividends, and high-yield savings accounts…
Corporate jobs are the real "passive income".
I know plenty of people who sit in their chairs for 40 hours a week watching Netflix or OnlyFans.
They barely work.

I was talking to a friend who said they have no joy and stuck in a role they’ve outgrown: Management’s changed, the pressure’s on, and with a mortgage hanging over them, they feel contractually and mentally locked in.
It’s wearing them down.

This is EXACTLY how new products or services should be built...
Start with what the customer naturally does, then reverse-engineer the solution around it.
Don’t guess what they need and build it blindly. Observe, test, adapt.
It sounds simple, yet very few do it.

This meme has been floating around Twitter:
“What if $112,000 was the double top like the cycle top in 2021”
My chart on global money printing vs Bitcoin price says no.

I'm the most productive person I know....
Yet, I still fuck around a lot.
I spent the last month travelling MENA and Europe for finance, family, friends, fun, fitness, freedom, etc and was able to get all my work done regardless of being "off " 95% of the time.

Particularly when it's really just you asking for more with nothing in return.
And, especially when you've already had my help for free, and you did nothing with it.

Anthony Albanese Didn’t Win In A Landslide (And What That Says About Australian Democracy)
People keep saying Anthony Albanese won by a landslide.
That’s not just wrong, it’s misleading.
He won because of preferences.
Preferences are not a pure reflection of voter intent.

Everyone thinks Tesla stock price is falling because the media is calling Elon a Nazi.
It's not.
It's falling because it, like most other assets, stocks follow the global M2 money supply and thus the Institute for Supply Management Purchasing Managers' Index (ISMPMI).
