Okay, so I am finally getting around to make a post about the results of some of the lab testing we have been doing. I've had the results for a bit, but I've been holding off on officially releasing them because frankly it stresses me out these days. It's the same song and dance every time, and it is one I have been doing for a decade now. I release results showing other products are not what they claim, then people attack me and claim I am lying to sell more product. Sometimes the attacks are relatively harmless, and just raise my blood pressure a bit for a day or two. Other times they are death threats to me, my family, and my team. It's not fun sometimes. You'll notice I don't do this nearly as much as I did back in the day on /r/Nootropics. I was younger and more gung-ho then, and had a lot less on my plate. Plus, my family and team kind of pleaded with me to stop doing it so much because of all the attacks and threats. This is why I have not been releasing things like this as much these days. It's not because product quality magically got better in the industry, I can tell you that much! Anyway, let's just get into it.
I woke up this morning ready to jump right into this pos…

The Warren Buffett quote has been used so much that it has lost meaning for a lot of people but it really is THAT simple. Sticking to this principle and removing emotions from the equation is difficult for most people. When BTC was trading in the 50k-60k range and everyone had laser eyes and were calling for 100k-250k BTC, and a penny Shib, it was emotionally hard to sell but everyone was too bullish for my liking and there were too many signals to ignore that I went against my instincts and stuck to what I knew intellectually. Same thing now. I FEEL like an idiot buying here but others are too bearish for my liking so I’m buying their cheap BTC. I even think BTC will drop more from these levels but I don’t know that, but I’m sure hoping that it does.
Funny you mention silver. Silver was my first investment ever. I put my life savings into it in late 2008 when I was 18 and bought it for around $11 an ounce. Then I watched it climb up to $48 and at the age of 21, my life savings became worth 6 figures. I come from a poor family. I started working when I was 14, paid for my own car, college, expenses, providing for my parents etc. while working and going to school full time. But that’s when I knew I wanted to be an investor. Now obviously it wasn’t the best investment but still almost a 2x so I basically just hedged my savings against inflation during that time.
I’m not spec…

It really is that simple. Emotion is the antithesis of efficient trading. You need to be a sociopath and kill off all emotion. You do your analysis of what you think the market is going to do, come up with a plan, then you STICK TO IT. Obviously you leave some room for your analysis to be wrong, and you take the temperature of the market at the time. However, logically coming up with a plan based on data and sticking to it wins most of the time. I realized long ago that I was too emotional to trade. It consumers my life, and I become a massive ball of stress. I am usually right in my analysis, but my mental health suffers too much from it, so I decided to not do it a long time ago. Now I buy assets I believe in and hold them for long periods. It means I have to hold through downturns, but I am used to that now. You need to do some self-reflection. If you come to the conclusion that your personality can't handle it, the best choice is to not do it at all.
I know hindsight is 20/20, but the level of idiocy last year with crypto should have been a big top signal for everyone. Using NFTs to sell shitty digital pictures to morons online should have been the top signal. OpenSea, the NFT marketplace, getting a $13 billion valuation for something so stupid should have been the Pets.com signal of the crypto market. I had family and employees coming up to me to ask if they should get into SHIB and DOGE, for fucks sake! NO YOU SHOULDN'T, YOU ABSOLUTE STUPID FUCKS! You should have bought Bitcoin TEN YEARS AGO like I told you!!! No, you shouldn't now just YOLO into a fucking joke shitcoin! It's like I have been taking crazy pills! I am "the crypto guy" because I have been a proponent of it for a long time, but they don't actually listen to me. Only one person in my real life actually listened to me and bought Bitcoin when it was around $100. Only one. Then someone puts a fucking dog face on a shitcoin and suddenly everyone is interested in crypto?!? Anyone that genuinely thought DOGE or SHIB would be anything other than a pump and dump shitcoin is a moron. You are bad, and you should feel bad. "Ohh, but Bitcoin is so expensive now!" You stupid simple minded fucks...
Buying silver back in 2008 wasn't a bad play. You just had to get out when it pumped a ton. It was never going to sustain that momentum. Also, the fact that silver isn't pumping right now, when we are in the literal perfect scenario for it to, should be an indication that they have misread the markets. Someone did an article on it a while back, and showed that there was so much excess supply of silver that just gets paused when the price falls. When the price starts to rise again, they reopen production and that depresses the price again. It really makes the recent price action make sense.
If I buy an island and fill it with spider monkeys, you are absolutely invited. Be aware that I will also train said spider monkey to be fiercely territorial.
