OK so this is an insanely mega giga brain idea… Playing for the insanely super turbo long-term game.

So, if you try to plan and structure things, assuming you’re gonna live for the next thousand years or whatever, in our case, let us see the next hundred… Then, you could start to structure and strategize things for the very very long-term.

Time horizon

So I think the tricky thing is, psychologists call this “time preference”– There are some people who have a very very long time preference and there are some people who have a very very short time preference. 

This is my honest thought, it comes down to optimism, ignoring these cowards and wimps who are too focused on the short term, fake fear porn you see in the news.

I’ll give an example, if you are the typical person, scrolling social media all day, essentially just waiting for the world to boil over, and collapse… Certainly there is no incentive for you to save up your money in capital, buy bitcoin, plan on getting married in order to have kids, etc. Rather, you’re probably in a position in which, your positioning yourself to slowly die the least painful death possible. Therefore you try to come out to Zen music and hot yoga, drink $20 soy lattes, stick to mostly “plant based” diet, maybe save enough money to do that yoga retreat in Bali, and maybe get an adopted rescue dog, and you try to “lower your carbon footprint”.

For myself personally, I separate people into two categories: we wise philosophers who don’t follow the news or social media, do not have Instagram, let alone TikTok which is probably just like a spying device on US citizens and teenagers by mainland China … and also a new category, somehow these very intelligent, high income earning, tech workers… Who once again are just waiting for the next iPhone Pro, and still do not understand bitcoin?
