From 2009-2011, a trivial amount of investment in Bitcoin would have turned any millionaire into a megabillionaire by now, and any billionaire into a literal trillionaire. Yet none did. This shows even Peter Thiel is understating the case about groupthink/cowardice in business.

8- weak men die, or even worse, stay alive society is full of soft men who pretend to be good. but softness isn’t virtue. it’s fragility. and fragility infects everything around it. if you’re not strong, nothing else will hold grow a pair

For over a decade, writers who are resentful of the technocapitalist class have told us that technological solutionism doesn't work, and that only social change can make our society better. This idea fails again and again. Technological solutionism is what works!!

The small value premium in international markets has been 2x as high as the U.S. premium, more than making up for the relative underperformance of international stocks. Also, it’s hard to look at this data and not conclude the long-term expected return (even today) on small

Kirk Lubimov This is Hamtramck, Michigan. Outside of Dearborn. Originally a Polish majority city, it is now the only Muslim majority city in America. Call to prayer is broadcasted publicly . The entire government, including the mayor and its all councillors are Muslim. This is happening

BREAKING: Tesla has released its 2025 proxy, and it includes an unprecedented $1 trillion pay package for Elon Musk (if he meets all objectives). If Elons wants to receive the full award, he will need to create $7.5 trillion in shareholder value, making Tesla an $8.5 trillion
