The conversation between @jackbutcher and @ShaanVP was full of gems

Here are 30+ key takeaways 👇

 State the obvious.

9 times out of 10 we all have a version of "obvious" that is different from others.
An audience is a superpower that lets you dabble in all kinds of things.
Those who should be envied have assets other than money: cult followings, knowledge, audiences (or a combination).
Network and audiences are what allow awesome stuff to come into life all the time.

Content is the magnet.
Three proof points for investing:
- Are they a participant in a long-term game that has inherent trust? (like Silicon Valley)
- Do you know the person?
- Do you know another person who is investing?
Reduce friction enough and you'll have no problem getting your fair share (often through fees).

Customers will be happy to pay.
It's crazy that people don't talk about how much they're getting paid.
Information asymmetries are where lots of money gets made in life.
One of @ShaanVP's meta-goals: "I want to be Robinhood for information."

In other words, what do successful people think about that the rest of us don't? And how can I share that?
On lifestyle:

It's easier to save money to start, but at some point there's nothing left to cut.

Focus on building the skill of making money than on reducing expenses.
Shaan's focus: how people make their money, what they do with it, and how they do it, which is why he talks about those topics.

He talks about topics that are interesting to him (or his previous self).
Why he shut down the newsletter:

He wants to use money to buy time, and this was doing the opposite: sucking his time for some marginal money.
The biggest thing you can do to improve your mindset for making money: hang out with people that make a lot of money.

One thing this will do will break your scale. For example, @awilkinson made $200M on one investment this year.
How do you find those people?
- Move where they are (like SF)
- Host people—invite awesome people to be together and be in close proximity to them.
Once you're near these people, you'll hear:
- What they're up to
- How they made things happen
- What they're investing in
- What they're doing or not doing
Every dollar you have gets some sort of return, including things like buying a house.

How do you maximize that return?
If you get the why and the what right, the how will happen.
The ABZ framework:

A: You need an accurate framework of where you are
B: You need your next step
Z: You need your end goal

Once you do B, you'll figure out the next thing.
@ShaanVP's end goal: to teach 1% of the world's population (70M) to a point where it affects their life.
"I wanna get paid to learn"
Actual ways to get paid to learn:
- Learn and then package it and sell it
- Learn and then invest based on it
A modern-day travesty: that people settle for jobs that aren't fulfilling for them.
From @jackbutcher: one of the things that people get stuck on is the belief that sharing what they love can be monetized.

In other words, they don't believe that what they enjoy could be considered work.
@naval saying @ShaanVP likes:

To escape competition, seek authenticity.
Doing what feels like play isn't enough.

You have to do what feels like play to you, but that others consider work.
@danielgross was one of the best guests on the podcast.

The key was he brought an awesome energy and state and how he approached the questions.
You want to be a 12/10 in one area, and you want to be around people that are 12/10 in at least one area.

These people change your frame of reference.

(@danielgross was one)
@APompliano is another person that @ShaanVP has learned a lot from.

He's one of the best building and monetizing an audience right now.
A big life hack: wake up naturally.
Big companies can be a great place to find your next idea or your next cofounder.

They aren't great for developing the skills that will help you build your next company (like management and process).
There are people you meet that you know will win.

There are lots of other people who win, but need the right context or timing.

@ShaanVP wants to be one of the people who can win in all contexts.
Being able to control your own mindset and state of mind is massively underrated.

You always need to be in some sort of state: why not be confident, upbeat, and feeling good?

(inspired by @TheNotoriousMMA)
There will be a popular modern-day philosophy that centers around people having faith in themselves.

Radical self-reliance.

MAHARAANI TARARANI: THE QUEEN OF MARATHAS

Rani Tarabai was the brave daughter-in-law of Chhatrapati Shivaji and one of the greatest medieval Monarchs India ever had.
She was born in 1675 to one of the bravest commander-in-chiefs of Shivaji's Army named Hambir Rao Mohite.


Tarabai was just 8yrs old when she was married to Shivaji's younger son, Rajaram. Mughals and Marathas were constantly at war with each other. Shivaji was crowned the ruler of the Independent Maratha Swarajya in 1674 which was established by him.


However,the great leader died in 1680&the Maratha Samrajya went into a complete&total chaos.Marathas saw some very tough times ahead. In 1689,when Raigad Fort fell to the Mughal Army of over 15000,Shivaji's first wife Saibai and his elder son Sambhaji were captured&put to death.


Sambhaji's wife and son Shahu were taken prisoners to the Mughal court. During the same battle, Shivaji's second son Rajaram(Tarabai's husband) , who was the heir to the throne now, managed to escape using a disguise. He made his way to the Gingee Fort in Tamil Nadu.


Mughal General Zulfikar Khan, however, followed them to Gingee laying siege to the Gingee Fort. From 1690-1698,This was the longest siege by a Mughal Army of any Fort which stands testimony to the military and diplomatic credentials of Rani Tarabai.

THE BATTLE OF SARAIGHAT (1671)

Lachit Borphukan's humiliation of Aurangzeb.

The battle of Saraighat was a naval engagement fought on the Brahmaputra river near Saraighat between the M0ghul empire and Ahom kingdom in 1671.

Guts, resolve and glory!

(Elaborate thread)


Koch was a state situated between the dominions of M0ghuls and Ahoms. For Ahoms, it was a buffer state for keeping M0ghul territorial expansions at bay.(1)

Times changed when the ruler of the Koch kingdom, Nara Narayana passed away in 1587 resulting in Koch being divided into 2. Western Koch was ruled by his son Lakshmi Narayan and the eastern Koch by his nephew, Raghudev.(2)

Lakshmi Narayan formed an alliance with M0ghuls after which he attacked Parikshit, son of Raghudev, in 1602. Parikshit Narayan was defeated while his brother Bali Narayan took refuge in the Ahom Kingdom.(3)

The M0ghuls used it as a pretext to invade Ahom kingdom. The first battle between them took place in 1615 leading to a series of engagements in which both sides had their shares of ups and downs resulting in a stalemate.(4)

@ReassessHistory
So when it first appeared in Normandy, the Sherman Firefly and it's meaty 17 pounder represented an ideal combo of reliable chassis, great gun and devastating firepower right?

Ummm...

Truth is a bit more complex. /1
#WW2 #SWW #History


Deliveries of Firefly to units only commenced in April 1944,
just a few weeks before Overlord & left minimal time for familiarisation.

Armoured Regiments mostly utilised Fireflies on a basis of 1 per troop of 4 tanks. /2


Finally each armoured regiment troop had access to integral, meaty, anti-tank firepower capable of dealing serious damage to any German AFV likely to be encountered. /3


The dual purpose 75mm gun was quite capable of laying down a reasonable HE shell or AP round for dealing with Panzer III or IV.

Firefly's 17 Pounder had.... problems with HE, but excelled at tank killing. So Tigers and Panthers would need to be wary. /4


Firefly's design history dated back to March 1943 when the General Staff published "Policy on Tanks" which effectively stated the majority of tanks should have a good HE weapon and...

Those who sold L @ 660 can always come back at 360. Those who sold S last week can be back @ 301

The 2020s will be known as the Remote Work decade

A few predictions of what is likely to emerge

[ a thread ] 💻🏠🌍

🏦Third Space: Office and Working from Home will be joined by somewhere close by that a number of people will use

Supermarkets or local bank branches should emerge as a convenient ubiquitous location option – if they are smart

⏰Asynchronous Work: Offices are instantaneous gratification distraction factories where synchronous work makes it impossible to get stuff done

Tools that enable asynchronous work are the most important thing globally remote teams need. A lot of startups will try to tackle this

⚽️Hobbie Renaissance: Remote working will lead to a rise in people participating in hobbies and activities which link them to people in their local community

This will lead to deeper, more meaningful relationships which overcome societal issues of loneliness and issolation

🚜Rural Living: World-class people will move to smaller cities, have a lower cost of living & higher quality of life

These regions must innovate quickly to attract that wealth. Better schools, faster internet connections are a must

(A THREAD)

18 Things I Would Do At 18:

I was a dumb 18-year-old. I thought I had the world figured out. I didn't.

I stayed up till the wee hours. Drank every liquor invented.

Partied non-stop. Woke up after noon.

Surfed the web aimlessly.

Read BS self-help.

Repeat.

If I could do it all over again, here's 18 things I would do...

PHASE ONE: GET MY MIND RIGHT

ACTION #1: Break the chains - I wish I made the decision earlier. I didn't. I was scared. Anxious. Nervous. I knew once I made the decision, there was no going back.

Don't be like me.

Make the decision at 18. The decision to pave your own path in life. To go against the herd. To choose your own adventure. To commit to whatever sets your heart on fire.

ACTION #2: Cut off every negative person in your life.

Scroll through the contacts in your phone...

Notice how the names make you feel.

Delete any and all names that fill you with doubt and negativity.

ACTION #3: Condition your mind to embrace the producer mindset instead of the consumer mindset.

Consume 20% of the time. Produce 80% of the time.

Case closed.

ACTION #4: Set an intention to make $10k a month and write it out every MORNING and NIGHT as if you already achieved it (in the past tense).

Visualize yourself already having the money as you write.

Cheesy?

Yes.

Does it work?

Yes.

PHASE TWO: EDUCATION
LIFE
