💰How to Get Rich (without getting lucky) by Naval

🔥THREAD:

 Seek wealth, not money or status. Wealth is having assets that earn while you sleep. Money is how we transfer time and wealth. Status is your place in the social hierarchy. @naval
Understand that ethical wealth creation is possible. If you secretly despise wealth, it will elude you. @naval
Ignore people playing status games. They gain status by attacking people playing wealth creation games. @naval
You’re not going to get rich renting out your time. You must own equity - a piece of a business - to gain your financial freedom. @naval
You will get rich by giving society what it wants but does not yet know how to get. At scale. @naval
Pick an industry where you can play long term games with long term people. @naval
The Internet has massively broadened the possible space of careers. Most people haven't figured this out yet. @naval
Play iterated games. All the returns in life, whether in wealth, relationships, or knowledge, come from compound interest. @naval
Pick business partners with high intelligence, energy, and, above all, integrity. @naval
Don't partner with cynics and pessimists. Their beliefs are self-fulfilling. @naval
Learn to sell. Learn to build. If you can do both, you will be unstoppable. @naval
Arm yourself with specific knowledge, accountability, and leverage. @naval
Specific knowledge is knowledge that you cannot be trained for. If society can train you, it can train someone else, and replace you. @naval
Specific knowledge is found by pursuing your genuine curiosity and passion rather than whatever is hot right now. @naval
Building specific knowledge will feel like play to you but will look like work to others. @naval
When specific knowledge is taught, it’s through apprenticeships, not schools. @naval
Specific knowledge is often highly technical or creative. It cannot be outsourced or automated. @naval
Embrace accountability, and take business risks under your own name. Society will reward you with responsibility, equity, and leverage. @naval
The most accountable people have singular, public, and risky brands: Oprah, Trump, Kanye, Elon. @naval
“Give me a lever long enough, and a place to stand, and I will move the earth.”
- Archimedes @naval
Fortunes require leverage. Business leverage comes from capital, people, and products with no marginal cost of replication (code and media). @naval
Capital means money. To raise money, apply your specific knowledge, with accountability, and show resulting good judgment. @naval
Labor means people working for you. It's the oldest and most fought-over form of leverage. Labor leverage will impress your parents, but don’t waste your life chasing it. @naval
Capital and labor are permissioned leverage. Everyone is chasing capital, but someone has to give it to you. Everyone is trying to lead, but someone has to follow you. @naval
Code and media are permissionless leverage. They're the leverage behind the newly rich. You can create software and media that works for you while you sleep. @naval
An army of robots is freely available - it's just packed in data centers for heat and space efficiency. Use it. @naval
If you can't code, write books and blogs, record videos and podcasts. @naval
Leverage is a force multiplier for your judgement. @naval
Judgement requires experience, but can be built faster by learning foundational skills. @naval
There is no skill called “business.” Avoid business magazines and business classes. @naval
Study microeconomics, game theory, psychology, persuasion, ethics, mathematics, and computers. @naval
Reading is faster than listening. Doing is faster than watching. @naval
You should be too busy to “do coffee," while still keeping an uncluttered calendar. @naval
Set and enforce an aspirational personal hourly rate. If fixing a problem will save less than your hourly rate, ignore it. If outsourcing a task will cost less than your hourly rate, outsource it. @naval
Work as hard as you can. Even though who you work with and what you work on are more important than how hard you work. @naval
Become the best in the world at what you do. Keep redefining what you do until this is true. @naval
There are no get rich quick schemes. That's just someone else getting rich off you. @naval
Apply specific knowledge, with leverage, and eventually you will get what you deserve. @naval
When you're finally wealthy, you'll realize that it wasn't what you were seeking in the first place. But that's for another day. @naval

Years ago I would troll CrossFit/Planet Fitness until I got bored with it and created the “Car Rage” guy. People would say, stop screaming in your car and go back to trolling CrossFit. I didn’t listen.

After screaming in my car for 3 years I started doing other shit......

.... like MeatHead Minutes, Hater Dance Videos, Macho Man impersonations, Podcasting, exposing the hypocrisy of BLM, doing Live Streams nightly on YouTube, etc. People would say, stop doing this other shit and go back to screaming in your car. I didn’t listen....

.... my FB page has grown over 176k new followers since my first George Floyd video in June and all I really post about is current event shit. I posted a “Car Rage” video yesterday and people are saying, stop screaming in your car and go back to talking about politics......

.... moral of this cool story bro is the BEST thing I ever did, is not listen to what anyone told me to do. Be you.

As people are sharing what they were doing as a 21 year old, here is a story I would like to share. I might never have shared this but for the shameless defence of violence, insurrection and treachery, crookedly citing compassion for youthfulness.

A classmate of mine was weak in studies. Would sometimes fail in all subjects. Had a tough childhood. From Std V onwards, he and his elder brother would sell ice water on cart (oldies will remember those steel carts) infront of a cinema hall for 25p per glass.

While asking for money, he would sometimes even get slapped by people barking "saale paani ke paise maangega". His elder brother, a sweet and shy boy, still in school, was killed in a rivalry by a local goon to "teach a lesson" to his father.

After the killing, the frightened family moved to Delhi. My friend couldn't pass XII std.His father who had always been mean and harsh with children continued to be so. One day he asked friend's mother to pack him a lunch and ordered his son not to return home till he found a job

For 4 days the boy returned without finding a job. Every night he would be thrashed. Fifth day the boy didnt return. He had taken refuge at Mama's place who was kind to him. But Maami extracted her pound of flesh. He did all the household chores and was last to be served meals.

Welp, I have no sound on the phone line for this news conference, so I shall tune in via video. Kenney is speaking and there is a photo of the boreal region.

Lost video too! Before that cut out, Kenney said they are expanding the Kitaskino Nuwenëné Wildland Provincial Park.

Back on the phone line. Environment and Parks Minister Jason Nixon. Athabasca Oil surrendered 23,500 acres in that region. Cenovus surrendered more than 60,000 acres.

Chief Peter Powder, Mikisew Cree First Nation, says we need to protect the watershed, the caribou habitat. Expansion of the Kitaskino Nuwenëné Wildland Provincial Park in the Athabasca Delta will protect most vulnerable species, he says

Powder thanks the federal government for financial support for the parks and thanks the province for supporting the vision.

Thread A History lesson for the MOAB:
1. The United States of America is not and has never been a Democracy, we're a Federal Republic tied together by the capital Laws of the Constitution.

Everyone in the country is about to get a harsh lesson on what this really means...

2. In 1871, February 21: Congress Passes an Act to Provide a Government for the District of Columbia, also known as the Act of 1871.

With no constitutional authority to do so, Congress creates a separate form of
government for the District of Columbia.

3. A ten mile square parcel of land (see,
Acts of the Forty-first Congress,” Section 34, Session III, chapters 61 and

4. The act — passed when the country was weakened and financially depleted in
the aftermath of the Civil War — was a strategic move by foreign interests
(international bankers) who were intent upon gaining a stranglehold on the coffers and neck of America.

5. Congress cut a deal w/ the international bankers(Rothschilds of London) to incur a DEBT to said bankers. Because the bankers were not about to lend money to a floundering nation w/out serious stipulations, they devised a way to get their foot in the door of the United States.

Yantrodharaka Anjaneya Temple, Hampi, Karnataka.

This temple dedicated to pawanputra Hanuman, near the banks of Tungabhadra river was built by dwaita philosopher and rajguru of the Vijayanagar empire, Sri Vyasaraja around +500 years ago.


:It is only in this temple that Hanuman appears in a prayer position. In this image, Bhagwan Hanuman’s crown has been formed by his tail.12 monkeys have been carved around this amulet.


:They represent the 12 days Sri Vyasaraja prayed to Hanuman ji. Each monkey holds the tail of the monkey in front of him but is facing backward. Seed syllables have also been carved around the amulet.


:It is believed that Sri Vyasaraja used to draw a picture of lord Hanuman here on the rocks before offering prayers using charcoal and the sketch disappeared after prayers.This incidence happened for 12 days in a row until he pleaded to bhagwan to appear in front of him.


On the 12th day, Hanuman ji appeared in front of Sri Vyasaraja and blessed him. Hanuman asked Sri Vyasaraja to constrain him in a hexagonal amulet & install him in that place.

#Thread The legend of Ekadash Mukhi Hanuman ji...


Mahadev himself narrated the story of Ekadash Mukhi Hanuman ji to Maa Parvati. Once a great monster named Kalkarmukh performed the severe penance of Brahma ji.


Pleased with the austerity of the demon, Brahma ji gave him a boon that the person who will have eleven Heads like you and who was born on the day of your birth, only he/she will be able to kill you. No one else will kill you.


After getting a boon from Brahma ji, Kalkarmukh created a ruckus in all three lok. He invaded Swarg and snatched all the rights of the Devtas and became himself the king of Swarg.


All Devtagan came to Shri Rama and asked him for help. Hearing the agony of the Devtagan, Shri Ram called his supreme devotee Hanuman ji and said, "Pawan Putra, Sankatmochan".
