Anyone up to making money the old-fashioned way? Establishing a business rather than speculating on scraps (shares) of a business?
After 15 years of putting my intellectual capacity into financial markets, it wasn't all in vain.
1) I acquired enough experience to conclude that further pursue of the dream of easy money within this particular domain is a fool's errand.
2) I acquired enough experience to make some guaranteed excess returns over the market in the long run, which is a thing that doesn't value much in my individual case but can be A LOT in the aggregate market. Think 5-10% excess return on my $100k net worth versus selling my trading system to a TRILLION of net worth.
3) Once I made a pause and contemplated the picture I saw the following: a 150+ IQ guy (myself) having worked the last 20 years mostly in vain (no billionaire so far) but in the highest paid highest growth domain so far: software development.
I like reading history. It's my entertainment and pleasure to READ (I also watch but that greatly limits the reach of my investigations) how things turned out after the fact, without knowing the fact upfront. The French Revolution. The Gulag. The war between Jack Tramiel and Atari.
I particularly enjoy the history of business. Why did Nokia fail and Apple prevail? Why did RCA's management so abjectly fail to capitalize on the nothing less than Sci-Fi technical capabilities of it's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitance_Electronic_Disc , available since the 60s. Fucking 60s! So ahead of it's time that the completely retarded and phisycs-unaware postcard from 1900's Germany on how people of the future might behave looks like a reasonable prediction: https://mattsko.com/2013/05/04/germ...ng-on-water-in-the-year-2000-from-circa-1900/
Having been involved into these sort of intellectual historian investigations, I started challenging myself with the following entertaining thought: what if I was transported to 1982 / 1992 / 2002, what "great" businessu idea would I have to make a billion dollars (at least)?
Well, the thing at all times, before having the benefit of hindsight is that people say: the low hanging fruit has been picked. There's nothing to pick for low effort anymore.
Yet time and again history proves them wrong.
As of 2023, I have at least 3 low hanging fruit venues that would be worth at least a billion each. Of course, I'm looking for the trillion but more on that later.
Now, who's with me in making at least the first $1e9? Write me in private.
