Spending money to show people how much money you have is the fastest way to have less money.

Money's greatest intrinsic value--and this can't be overstated--is its ability to give you control over your time.

Control over doing what you want, when you want to, with the people you want to, is the broadest lifestyle variable that makes people happy.

Controlling your time is the highest dividend money pays.

Planning is important, but the most important part of every plan is to plan on the plan not going according to plan.

Having an 'edge' and surviving are two different things: the first requires the second. You need to avoid ruin. At all costs.

Only the paranoid survive.

You don't need tremendous force to create tremendous results.

Dogs were domesticated 10,000 years ago and still retain some behaviors of their wild ancestors. Yet here we are, with between 20 and 50 years of experience in the modern financial system, hoping to be perfectly acclimated.

Before World War II most Americans worked until they died.

What you're doing seems crazy but I kind of understand why you're doing it.

We are paying for a dream, and you may not understand that because you are already living a dream.

“When the whole world is running towards a cliff, he who is running in the opposite direction appears to have lost his mind.” – C.S Lewis

Not doing your own research and YOLOing into a terrible investment because your time was worth more than your money is your problem.

Treated like God

Two groups of people, separated by chance of their birth year, go through life with a completely different view of how markets work.

The differences in how people have experienced money are not small, even among those you might think are pretty similar.

Individual investors' willingness to bear risk depends on personal history.

Some lessons have to be experienced before they can be understood.

We all think we know how the world works. But we've all only experienced a tiny sliver of it.

Studying history makes you feel like you understand something. But until you've lived through it and personally felt its consequences, you may not understand it enough to change your behavior.

We see the world through a different lens.

No amount of studying or open-mindedness can genuinely recreate the power of fear and uncertainty.

John F. Kennedy:

What seems crazy to you might make sense to me.

People are not crazy

"Your personal experiences with money make up maybe 0.00000001% of what's happened in the world, but maybe 80% of how you think the world works."

most “capitalists” on Wall Street proved to be socialists as they begged the government for bailouts

The economy needs baristas. It needs cashiers and servers and farmers. Society needs police officers and school teachers. It needs nurses and social workers. When someone gaslights them about their finances because they can’t pay their bills, they’re pretending we can live in a world without them. The truth is, we need them far more than we do lifestyle vloggers. The solution to widespread financial desperation isn’t to turn everyone into millionaire YouTubers and Instagram models. It’s to pay them more.

It’s great to make extra income off a side hustle, or turn your talents into a job that doesn’t exist yet. It’s great to be exceptional, but being exceptional by definition means that not everyone can do it. You don’t solve poverty and wage gaps by expecting everyone to be a genius.

Sufficiently gaslight someone over their finances, and they won’t know what to think anymore.

Hoarding wealth is a kind of abuse the wealthy inflict on the entire world. To excuse it, they construct a series of lies that allow them to blame everyone for their own financial problems.
