I crushed the market for $55,000 in October, more than doubling my starting capital of $50,000 in my prototypical hedge fund.
\nWhich means, since I implemented a full diversified long\/short option portfolio on July 1st, I\u2019m now up $81,000 in 122 days for a 162% return.
\nAnd to think I\u2019m dusting Wall Street as a fucking Rookie, who has only been actively trading for 5 months, who is only doing this as a part-time, side project, while founding a new tech startup.
\nAnd to think I have so much more room to improve \u2014 where I\u2019ve already identified more than a dozen areas for personal improvement and capacity for greater edge once I add a team around me and scale up.
\nI Profit off of the Fallacy of the Efficient Market Hypothesis.
\nI Profit off of the Fear of Masses and their Emotional Weakness.
\nI Profit off of those who subscribe to Risk Management \u2014 which often means “I\u2019m psychologically weak, ignorant of what really makes the market move, and\/or unwilling to put my money where my mouth is and bet on my beliefs about the world\u201d.
\nI Profit off of having a better Model of the World:
\nWhat\u2019s growing faster than consensus, what\u2019s contracting faster than consensus, and synthesizing the multivariate perspectives of the Macroscope and the Microscope.
\nMost people making money on Wall Street are just fucking Arbitrage Whores and Middle Men skimming off the technical inefficiencies of the market, because they don\u2019t have any real insight about the world and where it\u2019s going.
\nI beast the Long Side and the Short Side. I change my strategy when the world the changes. I\u2019m flexible, pliable and adaptive.
\n“I’m the fucking future.” – Conor Mcgregor, “They don’t think like me, they don’t talk like me, they don’t move like me.”
\nI will continue to do what others think is impossible in all areas of life.
\nI\u2019m a different breed of human.
\nMoney has never been a particularly abundant area of my life, as I\u2019ve never taken a job for the money, I’ve invested heavily in my health (both recovering from illness and maximizing wellness), I\u2019ve invested heavily in my personal development over saving money, and I\u2019ve always pursued what I\u2019m most passionate about, even when there was little or no money to be found doing so.
\nI\u2019ve lived many lean years on under $40k, grinding through founder startup salaries and un-lucrative but meaningful consulting projects.
\nI had a 6 figure cash-out once, but spent most of that money pursuing a new startup and recovering from the long depression that ensued when it failed.
\nNow refreshingly, I\u2019ve found a way to directly convert my Genius directly into $$$.
\nYou know what makes this victory even sweeter?
\nFrom July 2016 to June 2017, I was struggling with depression and being broke, while searching for the path where I could simultaneously pay my bills and work on starting a new tech company that had a long runway before it could pay me.
\nI was spending a lot of time studying political and economic trends, financial markets and the systemic instability of the world’s current trajectory.
\nI was helping my parents re-allocate their retirement portfolio and eventually felt confident enough in my understanding of the markets that I asked them if I could reinvest some of the left over money in an account that was set aside for my college education. Capital that had just been sitting there since I dropped out of Stanford in my first quarter in 2010.
\nThis is where the majority of my starting capital for my prototypical hedge fund came from.
\nSo, now with this exponentially growing capital in my treasure chest, I\u2019m ready to unleash my Genius in many areas of the world simultaneously.
\n“I envision two, possibly three, belts on my shoulder.\u201d – Conor McGregor
\nI will suck money out of the Financial System and funnel it into projects that will catalyze the Systemic Evolution and Development of the world.
\nI\u2019ve got a new tech startup launching soon that will do more to accelerate the consciousness of the planet than anything being worked on today.
\nI\u2019ve got a book coming out next year that revolutionize the management science of entrepreneurship and innovation for all who are ready to metabolize its message.
\nI\u2019ve got more exciting projects in the pipeline that I haven\u2019t even talked about yet.
\n“Make no mistake, I am setting up to be the greatest of all time. I am working towards it and, I will go down as the greatest of all time. \u2013 Conor McGregor\u201d
\nThe Old World Order is Breaking Down.
\nEnvironmental Destruction. Massive Wealth Inequality. Political Regression.
\nWe are at a Chaos Point.
\nWe will Level Up or Level Down.
\nEvolve or Regress.
\nThe Status Quo is no longer stable.
\nThe Path to Successfully bringing the New Paradigm into Existence rests on outcompeting the Old World at its own Game.
\nBy being better at Finance. Better at Business. Better at Relationships. Better at Thinking. Better at Feeling. Better at Life.
\nSoon I will be inviting many more of you to join me in this Revolutionary Campaign.
\nAnd if that\u2019s not for you, well then enjoy the show.
\nJust don\u2019t get in my way.
