Seek wealth, not money or status.
Wealth is having assets that earn while you sleep. Money is how we transfer time and wealth, while status is your rank in the social hierarchy.
You will get rich by giving society what it wants, but does not yet know how to get.
You must do this at scale.
Arm yourself with specific knowledge, accountability, and leverage.
Specific knowledge is knowledge you cannot be trained for. If society could train you, it could train someone else and replace you.
Leverage is key to wealth.
Labor and capital have limits, but code and media are the ultimate leverage.

Do not act as if you were going to live ten thousand years. Death hangs over you. While you live, while it is in your power, be good.
Quote
Begin each day by telling yourself: Today I shall be meeting with interference, ingratitude, insolence, disloyalty, ill-will, and selfishness – all of them due to the offenders’ ignorance of what is good or evil.
