A billionaire sat in a room for 42 minutes and listed every psychological trick that makes people lose money. for free. the finance industry has spent thirty years pretending this recording does not exist.
he didn't sell a course. he didn't write a newsletter. he sat in a chair at 96 years old and explained why brilliant people do the dumbest things with their money. then he explained why they will keep doing it.
MBA programs charge $200,000 to teach behavioral finance. he covered 25 biases in one sitting. some of them are still not in any curriculum. he gave the entire framework away on camera.
the part nobody talks about: he called crypto antisocial. he said index funds will crush most managers. he said private equity is full of wretched excess. he said all of this in a room full of people who manage money for a living. nobody argued.
a hedge fund analyst at a top firm told me this is the first thing they send to anyone who joins the desk. not a book. not a model. a 42-minute video of a 96-year-old man explaining why you will be wrong and how to recognize it before it costs you everything.
40 million people have heard his name. almost none of them have watched him explain the 25 ways their own brain is working against them.
the lecture is free. he died the following year. it is in the video.

As John Wooden said…
“Be more concerned with your character than your reputation because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.”
Character matters.

Every glass of water you drink contains hydrogen atoms that were created billions of years ago in the early universe. 💧 #MondayMotivation
ALT A periodic table titled “Origins of the Elements” depicts the astronomical origins of each chemical element. The table includes 103 boxes, each with the name, atomic number, and letter symbol of an element, plus one or two images indicating the objects or events that created it. Eight boxes provide a key: a purple burst represents “the big bang,” a fiery orange star represents “dying low-mass stars,” a small white star pulling material off a larger yellow star represents “white dwarf supernovae,” a ball of red and blue particles with one flying off represents “radioactive decay,” a shower of white streaks represents “cosmic ray collisions,” a white exploding star represents “dying high-mass stars,” two small blue stars swirling together represents “merging neutron stars,” and a blue beaker represents “human-made.” Below the table, text reads “This period table depicts the primary source on Earth for each element. In cases where two sources contribute fairly equally, both appear.”
