If a World Cup game ends 0-0, then both teams should get negative 5 points. No one wants this nonsense.

At a grad party and the Dad invited his Chinese national coworkers. They’re ripping heaters and when they aren’t ripping heaters, they’re vaping. Built different.

Hottest IPO ever and SpaceX still got ripped off.
The total fee pool for SpaceX's IPO is around $500 million, according to a filing and people familiar with the matter. Lead banks Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley will get the lion’s share of that, getting a combined 40% or around $100 million apiece. on.wsj.com/4aIVUq4

Two separate people were shocked I am 38. Bryan Johnson needs to add coffee, eggs, red meat, sun, and being underemployed to his anti-aging protocol.

The genre of online content where Europeans come to America and are pleasantly surprised by it is the best.

My current lifemaxxing stack: - 6:30 - wife wakes up - I rip massive fart and complain it’s too fucking early and go back to sleep - 7:30 - get up and make coffee and check twitters - 8:00 - check scores to see how much money I lost last night - 9:00 - go for walk to rub it in that I don’t have to be anywhere during business hours - 10:00 - back on twitters, while berating myself to do something with my life - big time suck where who the fuck knows what gets done - 3:00 - convince wife to get out of spreadsheets and into the sheets - 4:00 - lift in garage - 6:00 - dinner since BJ was right that eating late fucks up my sleep - 9:00 read a long book like Lonesome Dove to remind myself I’m not a normie - in bed by 10:30
My current lifemaxxing stack: - 4:30am wake up - Read classic books - 3 hours creative work before 8am - Lift/run 6x/week - Eat single ingredient foods - Present time with fam/friends - 20-min evening sauna - Wild Roman skincare routine - 8:30pm bedtime Wouldn't change a thing.

Because just like investing for the 99% - it's boring.
why don't many personal trainers want to help their clients do straight sets lifting really heavy weight with good form and progressive overload? do they think it's too boring, even though it's the most reliable way to build muscle? why do they want me to do cardio with weights? doing new movements each time i've never done before and thus can never get good at? putting me in circuits where i'm too gassed to hit max weight? why do they want to push me into doing plyometrics during the middle of strength work? why can't i just lift really heavy shit, and get my flexibility and mobility and conditioning work mostly elsewhere?

Looks like a lot of Big 4 partners are "retiring" before mandatory retirement age. Them billable streets must be tough out there.

Anytime someone tells me I’m too dogmatic on how dog shit 99% of RE agents are, I’m proven right again.

So glad I graduated in 2009, found FIRE in 2014, and married well in 2018.

My retired neighbor tinkers outside nonstop. Told him today “you don’t stop.” Him: “Yeah, I haven’t figured that out yet.”

I know it’s a shtick, but jfc - what kind of existence is this?
Replying to @bryan_johnson
Modern life has tricked us into thinking travel is good. It's kind of barbaric for the body. Last time I went to Asia we measured my biomarkers. The data was bad… 9 days for blood glucose stability 9 days to re-entrain my circadian rhythm 18 days for sleep architecture recovery The research: people who travel constantly for work (3 wks a month) have measurably more anxiety, depression, and drinking problems than people who don’t repeated jet lag is linked to memory-region shrinkage in flight crews your immune system takes a hit. Dry cabin air dries out mucous membranes that block infection which can leave you more exposed to getting sick This is intuitive because the body runs on a clock. Biological processes kicked off by another, with sleep sun running the show. Cabin altitude is ~7,000 ft. Hypoxia alone disrupts cortisol and suppresses nocturnal melatonin for hours after you land. Cabin humidity drops as low as 5% (drier than the Sahara). If you’re budgeting your international trips: I’d suggest no more than once every 3 months. Evidence shows you need ~1 day per time zone to re-entrain, and east is worse than west. Once Kate gets back she’s starting the female protocol. This also means she can’t travel internationally for at least a few months while we collect baseline measurement. The body understands time zone changes as trauma. I hope that this is my last international trip for a very long time.

ALT Margin Call Fair Market Price GIF

Fernando Tatis Jr. pierde demanda contra la empresa Big League Advance. Cuando era prospecto, Tatis recibió un préstamo de $2 millones a cambio del 10% de sus ganancias futuras en MLB y ahora le toca pagar. Con su contrato actual de $340 millones, deberá desembolsar alrededor de $34 millones, más de $240 mil en honorarios legales y también el 10% de los $3.4 millones obtenidos en arbitraje. #FernandoTatisJr
Community note
It was not a loan, it was an income purchase agreement where he sold away a portion of his future income (when his prospects were not as high) in exchange for a guaranteed payday. Essentially he sold 10% equity in his future earnings for $2M in 2017. nelsonmullins.com/insights/insig…
