I'd be interested to know what about the negotiation lecture you think make it one of the best. I just listened to it for the first time and didn't actually find too much content. The speaker had a lot of anecdotes but I didn't find too much actionable advice or processes. This is what I pulled from it: * Be calm, don't get angry * Learn what the other party really wants * Offer a price you think is fair, offer it early * Don't horse trade, unless the other party likes to horse trade. * be trustworthy * have an attorney I'm not trying to be a downer, honestly. I think I may be missing the forest for the trees.

My biggest takeaway was that everything is a negotiation whether you think about it along those lines or not. Edit: as a whole I find the ETL series more inspirational than actionable. Actionable items would differ from person to person depending on their situation and what they hope to achieve. Might be a key difference from the class Sam Altman is teaching.
