Wealth and happiness are not accidents of fate, but learnable skills built on specific knowledge, leverage, and the systematic elimination of desire.
Build wealth by discovering and refining your specific knowledge, which consists of the unique skills and obsessions that feel like play to you but look like work to others.
Multiply the impact of your specific knowledge through permissionless leverage like software and media, which cost nothing to replicate and work for you while you sleep.
Play long-term games with long-term people because all significant returns in wealth, relationships, and knowledge come from the mathematical power of compound interest.
