The ERIC KIM METHOD:

Often the setup process for something is arduous… and once you compromise your core belief for the sake of “saving money” or whatever … you’re ultimately gonna get seriously screwed down the line!

Why? Because it is predicated on the notion that the only reason for reading a book is that there is important knowledge, wisdom or information to extract rather than considering other things like if the read is enjoyable or not!

True reading is a luxury.

Also,

Only ever ever read something you really really want to read … never because you “should” read it.

Stay the F away!

True mark of a true man:

THINK MORE, BECOME MORE:

Moar thoughts!

Just my thoughts!

Yeah buddy!

We the new AI/DALL-E ChatGPT gods!

Red meat (beef lamb) or nothing.

It seems that most people hate their bodies. Am I the only person I know who loves their body?

Theory: modernity is all about hating your body?

Or in other words, I have never met anybody who is “woke”, who has a beautiful body?

Not always, but for example like getting the buddy capps Texas power bar, the product feels like it was created with more passion, more love. Not driven by a profit motive, but an artistic and soul based one.

Titan.fitness — I really like how cheap the stuff is, and also the free shipping, and the fact that it shipped really fast because it is based in California. But the downside is that it feels really cheap and shoddily made, the quality of the welds, the end caps, the sleeves and the material are terrible.

For example with the Texas power squat bar that I have… It is literally the most beautiful thing that I own. The chrome sleeves are phenomenal, and the gnurling and the grip of the bar is godlike.

For example, DALL-E ChatGPT can create images of men topless, but not for women?

I think anybody who takes religion literally without any critical thinking… this is foolishly naive.

Napoleon vibes!

Why? Masculine means man.

Also contrary to what popular “woke” culture tells you, women actually desire manly, masculine men.

Some weird ways in which men try to become more masculine include trying to talk more “woke“, becoming more academic and scholarly, also…kowtowing towards women?

Men also try to become more masculine by trying to be more romantic? Criticism of romanticism; it is just a mass marketed, movie notion.

Stop watching movies.

Being anonymous means without a name. Being anonymous, and anonymity is only for cowards!

Put your real first and last name on it!

More risk, more exposure, more glory!

The weak hate the strong.

ERIC KIM CRYPTO PHILOSOPHY:

Eric Kim’s philosophy on cryptocurrency could be quite intriguing, especially considering your diverse interests in photography, philosophy, innovation, and entrepreneurship.

1. Photography and Cryptocurrency: Eric Kim might view cryptocurrency as a new lens through which to capture and understand the world, similar to photography. Just as photography revolutionized how we see and record moments, cryptocurrency is changing how we perceive and use money. He might appreciate the aesthetics of cryptocurrency, seeing it as a form of digital art.
2. Philosophy and Cryptocurrency: Philosophically, Eric Kim could be drawn to the decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies. This aligns with the concepts of autonomy and self-governance found in stoicism, reflecting the values of ancient Greek societies like Sparta, which prized independence and resilience. He might see cryptocurrency as a modern manifestation of these ancient values.
3. Innovation and Entrepreneurship: From an entrepreneurial perspective, Eric Kim might be excited about the disruptive potential of cryptocurrency. Its ability to challenge traditional financial systems and introduce new ways of doing business could be seen as a frontier for innovation, much like the pioneering spirit found in entrepreneurship.
4. Unorthodox Thinking: Given your interest in unorthodox thinking, Eric Kim’s approach to cryptocurrency might not conform to mainstream narratives. He could be exploring unconventional uses of cryptocurrency, beyond just its financial aspect, such as leveraging blockchain technology for creative projects in photography or other fields.

In summary, Eric Kim’s crypto philosophy could be a unique blend of artistic expression, philosophical inquiry, entrepreneurial spirit, and unorthodox thinking, mirroring the multifaceted nature of your interests.

“Greed is good” – Gordon Gecko

So it seems and appears that a lot of people seek getting really really rich, really really fast, in order to buy a bunch of stuff. For example, I think the general idea is that you want to make a ton of money, feel good, buy a Lamborghini or whatever… And then what?

Crypto, cryptocurrency, crypto technology to me is fascinating because it is new, sexy, unorthodox, and interesting.

It seems that a lot of people are interested in crypto, bitcoin etc because they want to get really rich. But the tricky thing with crypto is that essentially you are really rich on paper, but typically most crypto speculators never actually dilute or convert their crypto to US dollars, which means that crypto money is not liquid, it is locked.

Crypto is intrinsically optimistic?

Crypto to me is interesting because it is edgy, optimistic, radical, and bold. Also a bit reckless.

The general idea is that with crypto, people are seeking a new revolution, something to up and the old system. Definitely a lot of anarchy vibes here, and a lot of people who are typically distrustful of big organizations, big government, etc.

Honestly I have nothing against the government, I am very happy paying my taxes, I still consider myself a bay area, liberal, open minded, at heart. I love democracy, democratic thinking. Why? It was mostly about how I was raised, how I was supported. If I did not get all of these government aided resources, like going to UCLA as an undergraduate, I would have never been able to become who I am today.

Also, simple organizations that I am grateful for include the Boy Scouts, Boy Scouts of America. I am forever grateful to my troop, my troop leaders, who helped me become an Eagle Scout, and helped me become the citizen that I am today.

Growing up, I grew up thinking that conservatives, Republicans were the devil. Why were they so greedy, if they had so much money, why don’t they help more poor people or people in need?

Irregardless, I think the promise of crypto is a more brilliant future. A lot of people seem to disdain the volatility of crypto, but I love it. With traditional stocks, you will never see a 10X gain, a 100X gain, or even a 1000x gain. Also with crypto, you could win it all, or you could lose it all. My general strategy towards crypto and cryptocurrency speculation is this:

Only put money into crypto, assuming that it will go to zero.

Perhaps the best piece of advice that I got from Nassim Taleb in his antifragile book is the idea that to maximize your gains, better to put 90% of your money in maximally boring funds, like bonds, yield savings account etc.… it is pretty crazy even now Cindy and I have a bunch of money just locked in a simple 5% APR savings account, and we get close to $2000 a month in “passive income” interest. Then, what I did was I put 10% of our savings into crypto, maximally speculative bets, initially investing in digibyte and bitcoin, later swapping it all to chainlink, along the way getting some Dogecoin, later transferring it all 100% back into Bitcoin.

All of the gains were mental. And along the way more recently, I’ve been drawing out some money from bitcoin, $5000 USD here US$5000 there… Simply to cover up moving expenses to LA.

The zen of crypto?

Ultimately what I find interesting is that crypto, people who speculate in crypto all tend to live kind of a more monastic Zen monk lifestyle. Even this one guy that I met who first got me into chainlink, revealed to me that he was a crypto whale in chainlink; apparently he first put his life savings in it, maybe $10,000 USD or so when it was worth about $.70, and then he saw it rise all the way up to $50 USD. It was funny, because I would just see him at the local LA fitness working out, thinking and meditating, we engage in some lively conversation, and he just drove his mom‘s old Honda Accord, I think he later told me that he was moving to Puerto Rico or something in order to avoid taxes on his crypto or some other regulatory aspects. Apparently even Sam Bankman Fried moved his corporation to the Bahamas, in order to avoid US regulation.

So what do you want to do with your wealth?

So once you are worth $20 billion, or $150 billion or whatever … then what?

Ironically the best use of money is simply peace of mind. That means money is not really a tool or a mechanism to buy a bunch of stuff that you like, but rather, being able to live a more zen, tranquil, more focused life.

For example, I think the reason why people are so addicted to email is that people are always desiring new “opportunities”, it is predicated on the fact that somehow other people will give you an afford you new opportunities and also, does predicated on the fact that somehow new opportunities will rise in which other people give you money.

But… assuming that no human being who messages you in your email inbox will give you money… would you still be interested in working with them?

For myself personally, I have close to zero interest in money. I am more interested in new opportunities, fun, new novel experiences. The things that I am proud of, or interested in, or grateful for is all of the cool interesting and sexy opportunities that I’ve had and done. Some of the people that I met, etc.

But ultimately, is there a human being more interesting than you?

Future trends

I’m currently reading the book “Going Infinite” by Michael Lewis, which chronicles is the life of Sam Bankman Fried and FTX and I find it insanely fascinating read. It seems that the same guy isn’t really the super evil guy that a lot of people in the media make him to be; the kid seems to be like a prodigy genius, mathematical minded, who really didn’t care for money or wealth. My personal theory is that he got suckered too much into this utilitarian “effective altruism“, concept… that he misused customer funds in order to “maximize“ his abilities for effective altruism.

I think effective altruism is a bad idea. Why? First of all, I think the general idea of altruism is bad; I think it puts other people in an inferior position, which I personally find is disrespectful. I think a better thing to do instead is on a day-to-day basis, instead of donating money to charities or whatever, to help empower other human beings on a one-to-one basis.

A simple thing; whenever I go to the park with Sen, and I see all these kids running around, who don’t really seem like they get much attention or love from their parents, I try to give them a little bit of that love and attention by talking to them, entertaining them etc. Perhaps this is a more effective way to “change the world“, than anything else.

The future of crypto?

Try to think about things on a 30 year basis. That means, the simple question; in 30 years, are people going to be using crypto more or less? Or, in 30 years, is the price of bitcoin going to go up or down? It seems pretty obvious that it will go up.

Also, the notion of a “digital wallet”. The general idea is that for the future, we ain’t gonna use cash money anymore. Why? I see more and more restaurants in institutions not except paper cash money. Why not? Because it is difficult to track, and I think there are also issues with employees at restaurants stealing money it etc. Even at my mom‘s old sushi restaurant where she worked at for a long time, she later found out that one of the head managers, a guy that we thought was a super good guy… Was secretly stealing money the whole time.

I think into the future, we will see less and less of “under the table“ payments; why? Because it is not trackable.

What else?

Some personal thoughts:

First, I don’t really like Ethereum. Why? It is kind of like android; maybe it is the better technology, but it isn’t sexy, only nerds know about it and use it, it ain’t mainstream and sexy like bitcoin. Bitcoin is like Apple, having the newest iPhone, iPhone Pro etc.… Ethereum is more like android, having an ugly Google pixel or some sort of generic Samsung smartphone.

Another analogy, bitcoin is like having the Lamborghini Countach, with the scissor doors, whereas Ethereum is like having the Toyota Corolla?

Altcoins?

Don’t trust old coins, or alternative coins. Why? Everyone just wants to become the next bitcoin, but ultimately… There is too much meme culture behind alt coins, like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu.

I am very dubious that the price of these Altcoins will ever go up; it seems that a lot of people in the crypto world simply over hype certain crypto technologies and coins, in order to pump it up, sell it, and make money.

Chainlink

Besides bitcoin, only other crypto I find interesting is chain-link. I’ve read all the white papers, and been following the chain-link blog for a long time. Currently the only reason that I’m still committed to bitcoin is that my gut feeling is that even though chain-link is really great, the issue is that it is going to be difficult for it to become mainstream.

First and foremost, it is difficult to explain what it is. The technology is good and great, but I don’t think the general market will understand it.

Also, the fact that there was a chain-link version two is not a good sign. Anything with a version two is probably a bad sign; same thing with Ethereum.

Also, the logo in blue is not very attractive. And the name isn’t that catchy.

I’m currently reading the book going infinite by Michael Lewis, which chronicles is the life of Sam Brinkman Fried in FTX and I find it insanely fascinating read. It seems that the same guy isn’t really the super evil guy that a lot of people in the media make him to be; The kids seems to be like a prodigy genius, mathematical minded, who really didn’t care for money or wealth.

One of my greatest passions in life is thinking. To me, interesting thoughts, by yourself or others is what makes life worth living.

Truth be told, at least out of all the real people I’ve met in the flesh; I don’t think I’ve ever met an interesting thinker in real life. All of the interesting ideas and thoughts that I got were either from dead philosophers, or some living entrepreneurs.

Perhaps this is the upside of reading books, if you could read well and selectively… Some of the most interesting ideas are within books, not in the average human being.

What is a productive thought?

To me, a productive thought is a thought which motivates you, inspires you, uplifts you, and lightens your spirits. The opposite is a thought which is depressive, gloomy, morose and bad.

People are easy to cast blame, but I think the real culprit here is technology in advertising dollars. The Morris sensational, the more fear inducing, the darker than news, the more profitable it is for Google, Google sense which seems to drive about 99% of the advertising on used websites, and also on YouTube; let us not forget that Google owns YouTube, a lot of the videos on YouTube are also driven by sensationalism, in order for the YouTube creators to maximize Their views and impressions to make advertising money to support their meager lifestyles.

Same thing goes with Facebook/Instagram; the more ostentatious the videos, the photos or whatever… The more money that the Facebook meta-corporation makes.

This doesn’t really make any institution evil; let us not forget that it is ultimately a business. What is the general notion of a business anyways? It needs to make money! Its sole purpose is to make money.

How to become a more productive thinker

“Trust no thought which doesn’t come to you while walking outside in the open air!” – Nietzsche

What is the genesis of thoughts and interesting thoughts? My theory is that it must come to you while walking, out and about, even when doing heavy one rep maxes at the gym.

Another theory; also good thoughts come to you while you are in the hot sauna, or even when you are taking an insanely hot bath at home.

My thought is perhaps interesting thoughts come to you from exposure. Exposure to novelty, foreign environments, uneven surfaces, and a maximally biped lifestyle.

What is the modern day trend?

I believe the modern day trend is a little bizarre; the idea is that your brain is supreme, and your body is irrelevant. The thought is that as long as you drink enough coffee or caffeine, you could somehow maximize your productivity, towards what ends?

Trust nobody who watches YouTube, reads the news, goes on Facebook, has Instagram, goes on Reddit, etc.

All four news is bad, and the bad thing with politics… Honestly it is like watching professional wrestling. Imagine WWF, WWE, WCW, NWO. A lot of these politicians are simply like professional wrestlers, they are all actors, all fake.

In ancient Roman or Greek times, actors were not seen in high esteem

Also, in ancient Roman and Greek Times, cooks and chefs were not really seen in high steam, clowns jesters and musicians were mostly slaves, and entertainers were slaves.

I also wonder if modern-day actors entertainers musicians etc. are essentially just well-paid slaves. For example, even Jay Z; I think he is a slave to money. He can’t really see what’s really on his mind about any modern-day politics which might hurt his dollars.

For example, I highly doubt that Jay Z would say anything bad about Israel or Jewish people… Given that apparently even his tax accountant is Jewish; which helps him “practically live tax-free.”

Offline thinking

My most productive thoughts come to me while walking, by myself, just with my iPad Pro, no Wi-Fi no Internet no 4G or 5G.

Why? Internet is great but in certain chunks. If the Internet is always on, your thoughts will never be able to ream uninterrupted. This is why often on really long international flights, even Long national flights, I do so much of my productive thinking reading and writing. Why? Because you don’t have Internet access.

In fact, the new true luxury is having the privilege and luxury of not having a phone, not having to check your email, not being contactable. Even now the only people who could contact me include Cindy, my mom and my sister, and a few of my close friends, essentially nobody else.

Phones of the future

I have a Zen phone concept; a phone and an operating system which automatically disables everything, one feature I like in the iPhone is this notion of silencing unknown colors, because honestly 99.99% of them is just spam. Even if one important person is accidentally filtered, I think it is still a net positive strategy.

It’s all on you

You don’t need any “opportunities”, simply chart your own future, pave your own path, create your own ideal future!

Bitcoin is robust.

”Resilient Bitcoin”

chatgpt as insanely fascinating to analyze overall sentiment and market trends?

Also — the question .. why?

The positive market sentiment towards Bitcoin in November 2023 can be attributed to several factors:

1. Technical Indicators and Price Trends: The presence of a solid uptrend in Bitcoin’s price, as evidenced by futures prices and daily bar charts, typically generates confidence among investors and traders. This uptrend suggests that the market is responding positively to Bitcoin’s performance and its potential future trajectory.
2. Yearly Highs and Price Recovery: Bitcoin reaching new yearly highs and its significant recovery from lower price points earlier in the year signal strength and resilience. This kind of price movement often attracts more investors, as it indicates a potential for further gains.
3. Market Psychology – Fear & Greed Index: The shift in the Bitcoin Fear and Greed Index from fear to greed indicates a change in investor sentiment. This index reflects the emotions and sentiments of market participants; a shift towards greed suggests that investors are becoming more optimistic and are willing to take on more risk in expectation of higher returns.
4. Overall Crypto Market Performance: The bullish trend in the broader cryptocurrency market, as seen throughout 2023, can also contribute to positive sentiment towards Bitcoin. As a leading cryptocurrency, Bitcoin often mirrors or influences wider market trends.
5. Historical Patterns and Predictions: Anticipated movements, like Bitcoin surpassing key price levels (e.g., $45,000), based on historical patterns and expert predictions, can fuel optimism. Investors often look to past trends and expert analysis as indicators of future performance.
6. Macro-Economic Factors: While not specified in the cited sources, broader macroeconomic factors, such as inflation rates, global economic stability, and technology adoption trends, can also influence Bitcoin’s market sentiment. For example, in times of economic uncertainty, Bitcoin is sometimes viewed as a digital gold or a hedge against traditional financial markets.

These factors collectively contribute to shaping the market’s view of Bitcoin, leading to the neutral-to-bullish sentiment observed in November 2023.

The current market sentiment for Bitcoin as of November 2023 is generally positive, though it exhibits a mix of neutrality and bullish tendencies:

1. As of November 22, 2023, the market sentiment is neutral, with the Fear & Greed index indicating a state of greed. Key support levels are identified at around $37,011, $36,556, and $36,203, with resistance levels at $37,818, $38,171, and $38,626 oai_citation:1,Bitcoin Price Prediction – BTC Price Estimated to Reach … – CoinCodex.

5. Bitcoin’s price increased significantly over the year, rising from $16,605 at the start of 2023 to around $36,500. The Bitcoin Fear and Greed index moved from a state of fear in August to greed in November, further reinforcing the bullish sentiment in the market oai_citation:5,Bitcoin Price Prediction 2023, 2024, 2025, 2030 – Techopedia.

Overall, the market sentiment for Bitcoin in November 2023 leans towards a positive outlook, with a mix of neutral and bullish tendencies.

Critique of modern day people and technology and social media and the news:

It is all doom and gloom… why? This is where the advertising money goes up!

Advertising is the evil one here?

Video

The future of models:

Only poor people buy Androids?

iPhone or nothing?

Modern day society — all about becoming more “normal”, more boring, more marginal, more mediocre… more “middle”? The median?

Where have all the beautiful models and supermodels gone?

1. You don’t need to pay them, or pay royalties etc.
2. A lot of AI generated beautiful women look *more* beautiful than real “normal” women?
3. Funny enough it seems that AI/DALL-E knows what a “beautiful woman” looks like better than an average person?

The philosophy of a model?

A model as an aspirational thing! Advertisements of models should be maximally fit, maximally beautiful.

Prompts

It seems that the “met gala” is the ultimate concept here? When the outfits become the most epic, ostentatious, peacocky, revealing, attractive, beautiful?

”more beautiful”, “more confident”

We only care for beauty!

Not the future: VR, virtual reality … even augmented reality. Too cumbersome.

Future — AI, ChatGPT, crypto/Bitcoin, phones, smartphones, DALL-E, DALL-E 3, AI art and image generation, videos, film, cinema, media, TV shows, movies, vlogs, podcasts, photos, blogs, information, websites.

Also, health, food, food philosophy, physique, exercise and fitness, beauty. Coffee.

Also music.

Cars, transportation, automobiles. Self driving cars, things which make our lives less cumbersome. Amazon Prime delivery, Tesla — Tesla taxi robo cars of the future.

Essentially the idea is people like to keep things insanely simple.

Not the future:

• Oculus, Meta, Meta Quest, VR headsets — I tried it a lot and honestly nobody likes putting these things on. Can it fit into your pocket when you’re out and about? No.
• Apple Vision — not a good idea. Unfortunately people would still just prefer a more innovative iPhone. Once again, you can’t fit the whole thing into your pocket!

Strange trend nowadays … the models in product advertisements look insanely “average”— not beautiful?

Beauty should be an aspirational thing!

1. ZEN OUT: No email, no outside correspondences. Try to avoid taking to other people. Like Nietzsche said — “strict refusal of letters”.
2. Walk. If you walked 50 miles a day… certainly you would be an insanely productive thinker!
3. Nature: Walking on uneven surfaces in nature, up high grades, seeing great views and vistas is insanely inspiring for thoughts!
4. Turn off the phone: Having internet, 4g, 5g as perhaps as the worst impediment to thinking.
