Sahil Bloom @SahilBloom Wisdom is not knowing everything. Wisdom is knowing you know nothing. April 14th 2022 354 Retweets 2,437 Likes

Truth.

Although I’d reword it as: “wisdom is knowing how little you know”.

visakan veerasamy @visakanv 1. Nerds (people for whom curiosity is a dominant drive) are rare to begin with. Let’s say 5-10% 2. Friendly nerds and ambitious nerds tend to be broadly assumed to be separate camps, different and at odds 3. Friendly ambitious nerds are (seems to me) radical and ~0.01% rare April 17th 2022 124 Retweets 1,391 Likes

Friendly Ambitious Nerds (FANs) is a good target for who you want to surround yourself with.

Ess @EMukumbo Post your personal finance take that will get you cancelled 🤭🤔 April 11th 2022 893 Retweets 4,077 Likes

This is an interesting thread.

But 5 Tweet Tuesday has 1 rule: “No clicks.”

So I’ll summarize the best answers here so you don’t have to click:

• Minimalism is true luxury
• The answer to most personal finance problems is literally just “make more money”
• “Not being married” is a better financial strategy than “being married”
• Buying a home is a bad investment. Not liquid. Seldom beats index funds, and have huge expense ratios. Just because it “beats renting” doesn’t mean it beats all the other possible investments you could make with the same money.

Naval @naval Your success in life depends on your ability to make good decisions. Your happiness depends on your ability to not care about the outcomes. April 18th 2022 5,638 Retweets 30,560 Likes

Tony Robbins calls this the “Science of Success” and the “Art of Fulfillment”.

We think they are related, but they are really separate skills:

1. Learning how to get what you want
2. Learning how to want what you have

Elisa Stone Leahy @ElisaStoneLeahy Apparently my kid got in trouble today for PACKING OUR TOASTER IN HIS BACKPACK and pulling it out at lunch to make pop tarts for his class. I can’t stop laughing. April 13th 2022 49,286 Retweets 775,639 Likes

🤣 That kid is a winner!

A bonus tweet because I’m feeling generous today:

Jack Butcher @jackbutcher experimenters > experts April 17th 2022 90 Retweets 515 Likes

Over the years, I’ve come to realize that one of the most important traits in successful people is their willingness to run small experiments.

Show me an experimenter, and I’ll show you a future winner.
