      Advice for Young People: DO NOT REPRODUCE!!!
      Pumping out units, I mean *kids, is NOT the solution/remedy/cure for problems/issues such as: boredom, poverty, selfishness, low IQ, **megalomania, shallowness, emptiness, hero complex, narcissism, virtue signalling syndrome. Please find a more useful/constructive hobby. 😉
      **obsession with the exercise of power
      *’kids’, aka future: pharmaceutical/medical industrial complex’ life long clients/victims, prison/military industrial complex clients/victims, fascists, satanists, totalitarian single digit iq nobodies, communists, marxists, bolsheviks, leninists, SJWs, BLMs, socialists, mercenaries, welfare/benefit queens/kings, cartel members, starving people, broke(n)/bankrupt people from all points of views, hitmen/hitwomen, murderers, witches/warlocks who curse others, murderers wearing uniforms-badges/white coats-stethoscopes/suits-ties, abused people, abusers/users, drunkards, drug addicts, drug dealers, alcoholics, homeless, gang/mafia members, suicide victims, bullies, bullied people, torturers, tortured people, mentally and physically handicapped people, orphans, victims of organ harvesting and human trafficking, single mother victims, dead soldiers, racist group gang members, prostitutes, residents of hell, debt slaves, suckers to participate in the rat race that enables the world wide criminal syndicate(royalty, bankers etc.) to stay rich and become richer.
      Please keep marrying and reproducing. Keep the cycle of misery, suffering and death going, this only helps us the rich/wealthy stay rich and get richer. ;)
      With love,
      The World Wide Criminal Syndicate: Royalty/Bankers/Industrialists/’Insuranceists’
      Here is a cool reason/true story on why you should pump out more units(kid): ‘’It is a sad day as I watch grown people shove their parents into the grave to take their spoils. have watched my cousins kill their parents early by running up their credit, mortgaging their homes, and then having the morphine pumped in them and even one of my cousins even told his mom that she would die today, as he gave permission for the morphine.
      She had a trake down her throat,s o she could not defend herself, but when he told her that… she looked at me and mom as her eyes got big as silver dollars with fear… my other cousin shoved her mom in a back bedroom for two years and gambled her 2400 a month away. My aunt finally got hold of a phone and called 911… and finally got out of her daughters hell… but then the hospess dropped her and broke her legs and hip and they finished her off with morphine.
      My other aunt died with liver cancer as her kids fought over her funeral money, as they told her to go on and die.
      My uncle had a son on crack that pushed him on in the box and these siblings all fell in one years time. Now my siblings are trying to push my mom in the box to get at her money and the sad thing is my mom knows it. I have tried to keep my two sisters off of my mom but they are constantly calling her and demanding that my mom buys them a house so they can leave their husbands. And my hands are tied. My ex and children robbed me a few years back so i know what’s going on but my hands are tied. This is a sad day that we have come to. My mom would fair out better if she had less money but the vultures are swarming. This is so sad and my sisters were raised better.‘’
      There are a million statistics showing how single mothers are a scourge on humanity. Don’t perpetuate this cycle of single mothers raising single mothers and boys who end up in prison. Think of the misery you will be causing to an innocent child. While the potential is there to make barren couples happy, there is also the likelihood that you will be enabling a single mother to ruin another child. YOUR child.
      As long as the government is fighting unwinnable wars, they will need bodies. Paying single moms to spit out children (through government welfare) while discouraging abortions is going to create more single mothers in poverty; Uncle Sam is hoping the men end up in the military while the women become knocked-up single moms just like their mothers did. If the men turn out to be useless, they can always be part of the industrial prison complex instead.
      “The aim of totalitarian education has never been to install convictions but to destroy the capacity to form any. One of the greatest advantages of the totalitarian elites of the twenties and thirties was to turn any statement of fact into question of motive.
      The ideal subject of totalitarian rule is not the convinced communist, but people for whom the distinction between fact and fiction and the distinction between true and false no longer exists”…
      ~ Hannah Arendt - The Origins of Totalitarianism (1951)
      ‘The technique of infamy is to start two lies at once and get people arguing heatedly over which is the truth.’ - Ezra Pound

      Rogan is an alpha male, a hunter, fighter, and all around popular dude. Elon is the antithesis of Rogan, an unpopular geek kid, who grew to become the greatest industrialist of the 21st century, and who achieved so much already that people have learned to respect and love him. So it's also very interesting to see these 2 different categories of alpha males interact in the same room for hours, because they don't seem to understand each other that well, but they are trying to.

      its also a huge pitfall for many people. Learning things on surface level often has no value apart from personal entertainment or trivia nights at the pub. You fall into the trap of 'only doing the fun things' of a given discipline and not building a solid foundation. You need to remember Elons work ethic borders on insanity, the guy regulary pulls 100 hour work weeks.

    Let me say this: I know I’m not Elon F***ing Musk, but the answer to the question of best advice for young people, is to take care of your mental/spiritual health as best as you can.
    All of the things these geniuses mention in this video will be extremely helpful and are more practical for what job you find, but no matter what job you have, you will be miserable if you don’t take care of your mental health. That means eating relatively healthily, taking walks/exercise, some form of meditation or consistent soul/mind searching, and getting good sleep. This is already so much to take care of, that if you let one of these things slip away from you you could end up being miserable no matter what type of life you live. Stay away from drugs, find joy in your life, and like every great influence always says, try to find what makes you happy in life, and do that. Love you all, sincerely, and I hope you all live peaceful lives and smile more.

That we're all in this together, and that no one should ever be left behind in the game of life.

    5:28 This is brilliant business advice. If you translate this to normal business terms, he is describing the difference between competitive vs creative business.
    Competitive businesses wrangle for the existing 100% of the market.
    Creative businesses wrangle to produce a new market out of the both the existing markets, PLUS any questionable technologies that are being produced.
    The nature of these technologies must be questionable, because the uncertainty is what allows these markets to be created. Any fixed market by definition has a clear set of outcomes and products, which have a clear roadmap towards both their creation and a reliable revenue stream.
    The questionable aspect of any new technology is a fundamental part of building out into any new untapped market. If the nature of the market is currently unknown until it is known, then the nature of the technology must also be unknown until it is known.
    Therefore the status of the unknown technology in mainstream terms is equal the the status of its corresponding market in mainstream terms.
    And the goal of the Entrepreneur is to take the uncertainty in the market and make it certain, which is the biggest challenge of all - but also why anyone who produces a new market is by default in the position and has the entitlement to reap the most rewards.
