@Silent_Simulator My wealthiest friend is a high school dropout. College bored me. I got into sales in my early twenties and started my business at 30. 30 years later still a successful business earning multi-six figures a year.
i used to be scared of maths but not anymore,i avoided studying it due to this fear ,still new to studying it but i am not scared of studying any books now.I think Naval is so right about this thing is this fear causes us procrastination,not sure about others but to me it did and that wasted so much of my time.
Yes I’ve been trying 3d lighting and if it wasn’t for the fear of shame and my age or time or if it’s for me etc…I would’ve produced a portfolio already! Hahaha but now I’m back at it and actually, I feel the fear and I’m like “I can’t afford this fear anymore”
I think this video best explains part of the huge problem with public education. Public school isn’t designed to build strong foundations in the basics. Rather it is a mechanical crap shoot, and they set the tempo, regardless if you’re actually learning. The education system is also purposely built to catapult you into “higher education”, where you are expected to learn advanced concepts and ideas, but aren’t proficient at any of the basics. If I knew that when I was younger, oh man, I’d be really far ahead than where I want to be today at 25. Thankfully, today is a new day to start with the basics and achieve mastery later; but ultimately work toward understanding everyday. This video helped me reflect on how much I actually don’t know, but thought I did know. My circle of competence is way smaller than I thought. Thank you Naval Ravikant
Mindset. Think different. Be able to sacrifice. Enjoy delayed gratification. Take calculated risks. Have thick skin. Stay humble. I grew up poor...like no lunch and no lunch money. Made many mistakes, specially on perspective and relationship with money. Learned the hard way. Success comes with having goals, making mistakes & overcoming challenges and having desire to succeed, persistence and determination.
I wasn't expecting to agree with the point about reading the right things in the wrong order. As soon as he said that I rolled my eyes, but after he explained the part about having an incorrect foundation/worldview, I was completely on board. Smart guy.
I know someone who did just what you said. He read a book on a subject, then went & taught other people about it, made a pile of money, then went onto another subject. Then brought shares in multiple business
Knowing what to do, when to do and whom to it with will make you rich. Getting fundamentals right, like mathematics and science and micro economics is very important in life. Being a perpetual learner will make you rich. There shouldn't be a book which scares you no matter what the age.
Thanks for this. Great content. Just one observation: Naval has highly recommended David Deutsch in the past. DD believes that in scientific matters in particular it is in fact not recommended to go to the original source (Darwin, Einstein, etc.) because our current understanding has improved considerably, and the original authors aimed their explanations at their contemporary peers.
Give this some thought: Original work will also give you an appreciation of the fact that things that we think are the facts but then time and more evidence (thanks to science) has the ability to nullify it over time. You'll miss this when you'll read what is a fact right now.
@@ANKITSHARMA-tn6fl Excellent observation! Just to clarify, Deutsch didn’t say that one should never read the original text, just that it’s not the best starting point. So, learn contemporary Neo-Darwinism before reading On the Origin of Species, or an up to date physics textbook before Newton’s Principia.
This statement is true. However, my understanding of what is being said is, read the originals first, and when you have strong foundation of that, read the current sources and see how much improvements have been made to the subject. That way we can naturally grow the spirit of research-thinking mindset.
Warren Buffett has mastered what patience looks like. He has stuck to the markets, having a long term view on the markets. This is what I'm struggling to do, trying to learn how to not react to market news about inflation and all. I have currently set aside about $253k to put in the market now that prices are down. Any ideas?
It takes some gut to really remain in the market despite downturns and all. So just find quality stocks that have long term potential, and ride with those stocks. I have found it takes someone who is very familiar with the market to make such good picks.
I agree. I have pulled in more than $1.4 million since 2020 through my advisor. It pays off more in the long run to just pick quality stocks and ride with those stocks.
@@sommersalt88 This is something I've been planning to do for a while now. My portfolio has been falling, and I'm scared, but I know the market always recovers. I wonder if I've been on the right stocks. How do I get in touch with your advisor?

The fact that he, and many others in his “cohort” time and again recommend reading Adam Smith, Mises and Hayek as foundational economics says a lot when most economists these days wouldn’t dare recommend Mises or Hayek. It’s quite telling about the economics profession when the people who actually create value espouse a much different school of thought
Smith too old economic thoughts, Mises and Hayek are propaganda not science, popularised in order to destroy social state, predecessors of todays criminal neoliberalism
Before deciding what information will form your foundation seek the opposite view. Only then will you know what you really believe after you’ve made a balanced assessment.
In this age while we are still lucky with development of crypto, simple way to at least $1 million is owning at least 0.1 bitcoin and 1 Ethereum. Do this and hold for anywhere between 3-8 years. Just hold regardless what happens. Very high probability you will be millionaire. If want 2-3, etc more million just add more allocation. If can not afford that just start with adding $50 or whatever can afford a month
Great advice by Naval. I also don’t think it’s perfect though. I would say knowing what the best path is for you. People need to be careful blindly listening to everyone like Naval or Gary V who knows he doesn’t have all the answers. It’s a custom plan. It’s not even being a perpetual learner, since we all know rich people who are idiots, it’s really understanding all the different paths and the best one for you.
For me, it has been learning how to invest in the companies in my country. I do dividend reinvesting. Buy 'n hold. So I keep working, but now I am content with not particularly advancing in my field of expertise. It is there because I once loved it. I still do. But it is not true that every second of every day is a passion. I earn a decent living. It pays the bills. Thank you for this video. In a video on Charlie Munger, he was shown talking about 'inanaities'. Lolapalooza's. I rewatched it a couple of times to finally understand that what he was telling his audience, was to train your mind to detect anomalies. and decide if you want to exploit them or not. Maybe he was talking about the stock market. Maybe he was talking about other things in life.
Maths and science are great things to know the fundamentals of, and they will undoubtedly sharpen your thinking skills, but without some kind of training in the fundamentals of philosophy and critical thinking, you won't progress much. I recommend Aristotelian philosophy for a blend of logic and experience.
I love these videos, lot of learnings from your videos. Thanks for your time to prepare the notes section. I have one request. Since you are preparing the notes of important points manually, is it possible to paste the notes in the description or a Google docs?? I have a habit(many of them might) noting down important points for future references and it would be helpful if I can watch the video to Gain Knowledge and also document it for future ref. Please do it if it's not too much, it would be very helpful.
Subbed! You are doing a great service man. I guess you also admire structural thinking. I can see that, you distill concepts into flow based notes. Same here.

Great video.. I don’t know who’s really hear this but if you really want to generate wealth, start small and with the little that you have, and invest it into stocks bitcoin and other crypto currencies I’m a living testimony from this
It’s a smart thing to do honestly. I did my research and invested $100,000 into crypto with the help of an experienced financial analyst and now, I’m worth 500% profit. My portfolio is $542,000.
@Williams Lol, it was like a dream to me at first, Loretta Wilkinson is really good with what she does. And she's has helped me achieve a lot in this space. She trades for me and earns me weekly and monthly profit
If you don't find a means of multiplying your money, you will wake up one day and realize that the money you thought you had, had been exhausted. Investment is a ladder to climb the financial wall.
Love Naval and think he is a really smart guy, but calling Microeconomics a hard science as insane. Its the least hard science out there. So many assumptions built into the models that do not reflect reality.. Its almost like be hasnt read Taleb.
Talebs stuff has nothing to do with debates on microeconomics. Microeconomics is microeconomics. What is there to disagree on? Macro on the other hand… very different.
