There are several people who are very inspiring and important to me. - Paul Graham and Eliezer Yudkowsky The 2 most clever people that I am aware of. I admire the way they write and think, and want to learn to do that as well. - Owen Cook(Tyler) from RSD This is the perfect model of a man that I wish to be. Driven, charismatic, intelligent, just generally awesome. This is how I want to behave and be like. - Louis CK, Dan Harmon(creator of the shows Community and Rick and Morty) and Randall Munroe(the author of xkcd) I have enormous respect and love for comedy, just something about the way comedians think is incredibly attractive to me. It takes a lot to be as brilliantly creative as these guys, and I want to learn to think like that. Others: Richard Feynman, Kevin Mitnick, Frank Abagnale, Richard Branson - based on their autobiographies, these guys lived cool lives. Elon Musk - I don't know what kind of person he is, but based on what he does - he is as cool as it gets. Fictional: - Walter White, Gregory House Brilliant person willing to do whatever it takes to achieve his goal, not giving up in desperate situations, acting rationally despite the emotions. - Barney Stinson Haha this dude is awesome. - Hank Rearden Basically a definition of a badass person, created to be the role model for people like me. - Harry from HPMOR Not much to explain here, he is also basically a definition of a cool person. Others: Harvey Specter, Frank Underwood, Ari Gold, Hank Moody. And Tony Stark I guess =)
