What’s Sharpe Ratio?

High sharpe ratio: get a lot of candy, don’t lose much. Low sharpe ratio: might not get enough candy or you might lose a lot.

Imagine you have a special piggy bank that can give you extra candy but also sometimes might take candy away. The Sharpe Ratio is like a score that tells you how good that piggy bank is at giving you more candy than it takes away. A higher score means you get a lot of candy and don’t lose much. If the score is low, it means you might not get enough candy, or you might lose a lot.

Imagine you have a magic piggy bank that can sometimes give you extra candy but also might take some candy away. The Sharpe Ratio is like a score telling you how good that magic piggy bank is at giving you more candy than it takes.

• If the piggy bank gives you a lot of candy but doesn’t take much away, it has a high score.

• If it takes away a lot of candy or doesn’t give you much, it has a low score.

The higher the score, the better the piggy bank is at giving you candy without big ups and downs.

Simply put, the Sharpe Ratio measures how much return you get for the risk you take. It looks at your investment’s return above the risk-free rate and compares it to the investment’s volatility. A higher Sharpe Ratio means you’re earning more return for each unit of risk you take.

..

The Sharpe Ratio is a commonly used measure in finance to evaluate the risk-adjusted return of an investment or portfolio. It was developed by Nobel laureate William F. Sharpe.

Definition

Formally, the Sharpe Ratio is defined as:

where:

• is the expected return (or average return) of the investment or portfolio.

• is the risk-free rate of return (often approximated by returns on U.S. Treasury bills).

• is the standard deviation of the investment or portfolio’s returns, a measure of volatility (risk).

Interpretation

1. High Sharpe Ratio: A higher Sharpe Ratio indicates a better risk-adjusted performance. In other words, for every unit of risk (volatility), the investment or portfolio earns a higher excess return over the risk-free rate.

2. Low (or Negative) Sharpe Ratio: A lower or negative Sharpe Ratio suggests that the risk isn’t being rewarded adequately by returns.

Practical Considerations

• Time Horizon: Typically, you calculate the Sharpe Ratio for a specified period (e.g., annual, monthly). If you’re using monthly data, you might annualize the ratio.

• Comparison Tool: It’s most valuable when comparing multiple investments or portfolios. For instance, if two portfolios have the same level of return, the one with lower volatility will have a higher Sharpe Ratio.

• Limitations: The Sharpe Ratio assumes normally distributed returns and can be less meaningful for investments with non-linear risk profiles (e.g., options or strategies with asymmetric returns). In those cases, other risk-adjusted measures like Sortino Ratio or Value at Risk may provide additional insights.

Overall, the Sharpe Ratio helps investors and portfolio managers compare different investments on a level playing field by factoring in both the return and the volatility (risk) of those returns.

Health > Wealth

After this really really 4 to 5 days of sickness, not sure if it’s a cold or flu… All the bitcoins on the planet don’t make up for it.

Travel Ideas

1. Mask up inside airport, airplane, and also maybe uber and taxi?

First, it may be annoying but just when at airport and transit, in airplane and airport mask up! About a week and a half in in Vietnam, caught one of the worst clothes in my life which has lasted about 4-5 days. I messed up the entire flight from LAX to Incheon to Saigon, the only time I didn’t wear a mask was when I was at the airport, and also I didn’t wear a face mask in my recent very very short local flight from Saigon to Dalat. What sicknesses, certainly it is impossible to know where it originated from, but after this really really bad sickness cold, I would have psychologically felt better knowing that if I just wore the facemask the entire time, and I still got a cold, then it was just randomness and chance.

2. Don’t watch the movies

The problem with watching a movie on a flight is that it is almost always films that you do not actually really want to watch.

For example, on the flight I watched Mad Max FURIOSA, and I really didn’t enjoy it. In fact, it was a positively bad experience because it invoked thoughts of child pedophilia and stuff like that. Really really revolting.

Also the problem about watching a flight on the film is that it forces you to stay in the sedentary position, and if you’re on a flight for too long, you know that sitting for too long will cause you major butt and back aches.

if there is a certain movie film in series that you are really really dying to watch, just download it offline on your iPhone or iPad, and watch it while standing, in the back, and walking around. Hang out with the stewardesses in the back.

3. Drink a shitload of water

During the flight while in transit, it’s super annoying to have to pee all the time but maybe it is a good idea to just over hydrate, because at least this will motivate you to stay moving and going to the bathroom?

And also, it may be better to be overhydrated than underhydrated.

Stable etymology

Etymology of “stable” (adjective)

• Origin: From the Latin word stabilis meaning “firm,” “steady,” or “steadfast,” which in turn comes from stare, meaning “to stand.”

• Development: In Old French, it appeared as estable and carried over into Middle English as stable, retaining the sense of “secure,” “unchanging,” or “reliable.”

Etymology of “stable” (noun)

• Meaning: A building or enclosure where livestock (especially horses) are kept.

• Origin: Ultimately from the same Latin root stare (“to stand”), via Late Latin stabulum (“standing place,” “stall”) and Anglo-French estable. In Middle English, stable retained the notion of “a place where animals stand or stay.”

Critique of Capital Gains Taxes

I suppose my number one biggest critique of capital gains, capital gains taxes that it kind of dis incentivize you from taking certain financial and economic risks, simply because you are afraid of triggering a taxable event?

And then the annoyance is that as an individual, it motivates you from acting in such a way that you avoid triggering capital gains taxes events, therefore incentivizing you to do nothing?

Incentive to be lazy?

for example, if I have like $2 million assets, I see a big gain investment opportunity… I feel disincentivized to sell the $2 million of assets, and to invest in something else, … because once again, I don’t want to be hit with like a $200,000 tax bill.

Let us consider… What if I invested $2 million into something, and it goes south? And I’m still left having to deal with the $200,000 tax bill? Then what?

It doesn’t really make sense?

I mean I get it if you’re like a super mega ultra corporation like Apple… And then paying taxes corporate taxes kind of makes sense. But if you’re just like an individual, an individual solo entrepreneur, a small fry ,,, capital gains taxes seems to be unethical? Or at least bad for the individual.

And isn’t America supposed to be all about empowering the individual?

Critiques of capital gains taxes

Critiques of capital gains taxes often come from economists, policymakers, and investors who argue that these taxes can distort economic behavior and discourage productive activities. While perspectives vary, here are several common critiques:

1. Lock-In Effect

• Because capital gains are taxed only when assets are sold (“realization-based” taxation), investors may be incentivized to hold onto assets longer than they otherwise would—purely to avoid triggering a tax event.

• This “lock-in” reduces liquidity in markets and can prevent capital from moving to potentially more productive or innovative investments.

2. Potential Double Taxation

• Critics note that many assets—like shares of stock—already generate corporate profits, which themselves are taxed at the corporate level.

• When an investor sells the stock and realizes a gain, this appreciation (in part deriving from after-tax profits) is taxed again, leading to what some see as a second layer of taxation on the same underlying economic value.

3. Disincentive to Invest or Innovate

• Some argue that taxing capital gains diminishes the rewards from building or growing a business, thereby discouraging entrepreneurship, venture funding, and long-term investment.

• In particular, high taxes on capital gains are viewed by some as reducing the attractiveness of risk-taking, since potential after-tax returns might be smaller.

4. Complexity and Compliance Costs

• The rules for determining cost basis, holding periods, and taxable amounts can be complicated, leading to administrative burdens on both taxpayers and tax authorities.

• Frequent changes to capital gains rules or rates can generate uncertainty, hindering businesses and individuals from making well-informed decisions about when and how to sell assets.

5. Unrealized Gains vs. Realized Gains

• Under a realization-based system, investors only pay taxes once they sell the asset. Meanwhile, substantial gains can accrue tax-free if the investor holds the asset indefinitely.

• Critics on both sides note that the disparity can lead to distortions—some see an unfair advantage for wealthy individuals with large, unrealized gains, while others argue it forces premature or suboptimal sales for those who need liquidity.

6. Distributional Concerns

• Although some defend capital gains taxes as reducing wealth inequality (since high-income individuals tend to derive more income from investments), others argue that capital gains taxes hurt middle-class households that hold assets like homes or retirement accounts.

• Fluctuations in asset prices can mean individuals face capital gains taxes even when their real economic situation has not substantially improved (for example, due to inflation or local housing market spikes).

7. Potential for Tax-Efficient Structuring

• High-net-worth individuals and corporations can often structure transactions to minimize or defer capital gains taxes (e.g., through 1031 “like-kind” exchanges, estate planning, or sophisticated investment vehicles).

• This ability to exploit legal loopholes leads to critiques that capital gains taxes are inconsistently enforced across different income groups.

Overall, while proponents view capital gains taxes as a key means of ensuring fairness and generating government revenue, critics argue that these taxes may discourage investment, lead to inefficient asset allocation, and impose significant compliance costs.

Why do capital gains capital gains taxes exist?

Capital gains taxes exist primarily because realized gains from the sale of assets—stocks, real estate, or other investments—constitute a form of income. Taxing that income is seen as part of a fair and comprehensive tax system. Here are some of the key reasons:

1. Equity and Fairness

• If wages, salaries, and business profits are taxed, then the increased wealth an individual obtains by selling an asset at a profit can also be considered taxable income.

• Capital gains taxes are meant to help balance the overall tax burden and ensure that all forms of income, whether from labor or investment, are treated consistently.

2. Revenue Generation

• Capital gains taxes provide an important source of government revenue, helping fund public programs and services.

• By collecting taxes on realized gains, governments can partially offset other tax reductions or expenditures and maintain a stable revenue base.

3. Encouraging Productive Investment

• Many tax systems structure capital gains rates—often with lower rates for long-term gains—to encourage more stable, long-term investing rather than speculative, short-term trading.

• In this way, capital gains tax policy can influence investors’ behavior, channeling capital into longer-term economic growth.

4. Administrative Practicality

• Taxing capital gains at the point of sale or realization (rather than on “paper” or unrealized gains) is more administratively efficient.

• Tying the tax event to a clear transaction makes it easier for both the government and taxpayers to calculate and document the gain.

In sum, capital gains taxes exist to treat investment gains as taxable income, generate revenue for government spending, promote longer-term investing, and align tax policy with the principle that all income—whether earned through labor or investment—should be subject to some level of taxation.

It still blows my mind, the cost of these things are so insanely stupid expensive— home single-family homes cars automobiles Teslas etc. Even iPhones, iPhone Pros — food, eating out, alcohol etc.

The true intelligent strategy is to just hoard all your money wealth capital and just travel and live abroad and be abroad?

RED IS THE COLOR OF PERFORMANCE

Plugins SLOW DOWN your website?

so after using Jetpack for over like a decade, paying for it, security and back ups whatever… Suddenly like one day it’s just kind of stopped working, no longer connected to my site, not sure if this is a technical error or I violate some sort of terms and conditions or whatever, but anyways, After about 10 years, I finally just deactivated the Jetpack plug-in, with no downside! If anything ,,, my site runs faster now?

Via negativa for speed?

REMOVE, REMOVING plugins to SPEED UP your website and blog?

I think this is a big thing; if you’re new to building websites blogs, a WordPress site, typically the thought is the more plug-ins you have, the “more better” your site and blog will be and become, and also, the more plug-ins you have installed, the more optimize efficient and faster and better your website will be.

What if the opposite were true? Well like if you literally had like zero plug-ins, you would have peak performance?

Via negativa, to cut, reduce, delete, subtract or get rid of for SUPERIOR performance?

I think we could also apply this line of thinking to like almost everything in life:

When you’re traveling, to remove reduce weight, to get rid of stuff or decide what not to travel with is key. To overpack is a vice and for cowards and sissies.

With life, lifestyle people etc — once again, insanely EXTREME reduction is a virtue?

VIETNAM LUXURY

Wow, staying at the MERCUR, Dalat hotel resort, and wow ,,, it makes all of American seems so ghetto and backwards.

Problems in America

so after spending some time in Saigon and Vietnam and here in Dalat… The economic parity purchasing power here in Vietnam as a wealthy foreigner is interesting:

First, I think the biggest problem in America is that there is a huuuuuuge shortage of labor. In terms of both skilled and unskilled labor.

The truth of the fact is like if you live in California Los Angeles whatever… All of the construction contractor work is typically done by Latino immigrant laborers from El Salvador, Mexico, Guatemala etc. Yet they are almost run like cartels; you will have some sort of American guy Korean guy or Latino American guy who acts the middle man, who speaks to his only Spanish speaking labor staff to build something.

Vietnam there’s a huge supply of labor both skilled and unskilled, mostly skilled. For example even if you go to the mall, there’s almost always a lady always cleaning up the bathrooms, the floors, it is like 1 trillion times more hygienic than America.

Also in terms of construction, there is so much skilled construction workers here, who are paid like 5% of the salary in America.

As a consequence, stuff here in Vietnam just gets built like 1000 X faster and also 1000 X cheaper.

No “homeless” people in Vietnam

Another thing… For the most part you don’t really see “homeless” people in Vietnam. Certainly there are some people who are very very impoverished, insanely poor, but not “homeless” in the American Los Angeles sense, like drugged out cracked out individual solo people.

America is on the out and out?

I think I’m starting to understand a little bit more about the notion of colonialism… When your own home country is already tapped out, you go outward and explore for new opportunities.

Certainly there are huge benefit benefits of being in America life in America etc., freedom of speech, certainly the apex freedom you could have on the planet. For us new Spartans in which we reprise our freedom above all else… And also the power of an American passport and citizenship, it is worth it.

Privilege is a double edged sword

First, I believe it to be manly to pay your taxes your American taxes dutifully, it is virtuous. But I think the big thing is spent some of your time living in the states, as a homebase, do your taxes, do your finances trading investing there, but also spend a large chunk of time abroad.

The ideal ratio

Honestly speaking I almost feel like the ideal ratio is spending 80% of your time and calendar year abroad, and 20% back home. Like in a single year with 12 months, 3 months back home is fine, the other 9 months abroad seems like a good idea.

Americans or individuals abroad are happier

If you could earn US dollars back home in America, yet live for like 5% to 10% of the cost abroad, doesn’t that makes the most sense?

Hotels

Are you an example… Even spending $40 a night at like a basic two star or three star hotel in Saigon is almost like 20 times better than anything you will find in America. A $50 a night hotel in Saigon is probably worth like $350 a night in America.

It gets better; you spend time in a luxury resort in Vietnam in Dalat, like a $300 a night resort, it is almost what you would experience at like a $10,000 a night resort in America.

These things are super nice!

When you’re in America, I almost feel like 99% of the time you’re just always thinking about how poor you are, or how you don’t have enough money, etc. This is the poor middle class and rich alike. So when you’re abroad in Vietnam etc.… You feel so insanely baller. Your life and lifestyle is like 1 trillion times more beautiful, more aesthetically beautiful, your life is just like so elevated!

America sucks!

Once again, living in America sucks. The greatest upside of America is once again our freedom and our liberty laws which are paid with our taxes. Otherwise don’t don’t live there!

The Ethos of Travel

So one of the big things that comes to mind; why travel, what is the point of travel?

The world is a bigass place

So the first very simple thought:

The world is a fucking hugeass place

No matter how good your “imagination“ is… unless you have actually travel to different locations in the flesh and embodied reality, you don’t know nothing.

Pro and anti traveling philosophy

So kind of the loser mentality is “Why should you travel… you should just be grateful for where you are”. And I think this is ultimately one of the very backward lines of thinking, at least in the context of like maybe zen, buddhism, and strange american notions of gratitude?

What’s the purpose or point of life?

First, simply you don’t want to be bored, it is virtuous to have fun to explore to conquer to explore, to expand your world mind soul and the planet!

The new aristocracy

Certainly you cannot be everywhere, all at once. Your own physical human flesh bound body could only inhabit one spot at a time, and there are certain limits to luxury.

You can’t really tell nothing by looking at a map

I think this is also a very very big thing; often before you travel or during your travel or whatever, we will cross reference maps to get a sense of a place. But unless you get a POV point of view, first person view in the flesh, you can’t tell nothing.

BIG MOVES.

UV, UV radiation, ultraviolet radiation is a source of physiological energy for humans.

Ultraviolet (UV) radiation plays an important role for human health—most notably by enabling our bodies to produce vitamin D in the skin. However, it is not typically considered a “source of physiological energy” in the same sense that food or calories are. Here is how UV radiation interacts with our biology:

1. Vitamin D Synthesis

• When UV-B radiation from sunlight hits our skin, it triggers a chemical reaction that converts a precursor molecule into vitamin D.

• Vitamin D is crucial for calcium and phosphorus balance, supporting strong bones and immune function, among other roles.

2. Skin Health and Risks

• While some sun exposure is beneficial, too much UV radiation can damage skin cells, lead to sunburn, and increase the risk of skin cancer.

• The key is moderate exposure to sunlight, protecting the skin when UV levels are high.

3. Not a Direct Source of Metabolic Energy

• Physiologically, we derive most of our energy from the food we eat, via the breakdown of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into ATP (adenosine triphosphate).

• UV rays do not directly generate ATP or “fuel” cells in the same way dietary nutrients do.

So, although UV radiation is vital for vitamin D production, calling it a direct source of “physiological energy” can be misleading. It is more precise to describe it as a necessary environmental factor that helps our bodies synthesize an essential nutrient rather than viewing it as an energy source like food.
