I've realized this as well and the best solution I can think of is to take capital from the US and deploy it in less "efficient" parts somewhere else in the world. Housing: We're never going be able to change zoning laws

Why pay more though? You can always work less. My point being is that people want to be rich and loneliness takes a backseat. The least lonely people I know are all working class and near the poverty level. In contrast, most of the well off

These numbers don't appear to be adjusted for inflation, but even if they were, I still wouldn't trust it. Lot of people know by now that the government fudges those numbers to understate them.

Letting go of optionality is a good thing when you have a safety net to fall back on. If you don't have one, the next best thing is to have various escape hatches available.

You hit the nail on the head. Increasing optionality is a very powerful tool that not enough people utilize.

I had the reverse of this where I worked in-office all week, but spent the weekend in an entirely different city with my girlfriend. It was never meant to be a long term arrangement as I was staying with my family during the work-week, but

True, but the quarterly thing doesn't have to be a requirement and the beauty of of is that 3 months is a decent amount of time to plan for who's going and who is no going. I'd leave it to people to decide if they want to att

Really depends on the area though. In LA for example, you'd have to move 1-2 hours away to get into MCOL or LOCOL. What would be really cool is reconceptualizing hybrid work as quarterly retreats, where the company provides housing and

One thing that helps tremendously is greenery and parks. Unfortunately, most suburbs lack even decently sized trees, either because they are new, they are located somewhere where trees don't grow well, or they aren't well watered

If "intelligence" becomes a service, it means that things are easier to build. If things are easier to build, then it becomes harder to develop moat because every app becomes easier to copy. Like Peter Thiel said, "competitio

Prompt engineering along with being able to describe problems exceptionally well will become important. Just the other day I needed to write a complex script using a library I knew very little about. I knew "what" I wanted to do a
