Hello everyone, I am txp, and today I will talk to you about a non-technical topic: enlightenment and resistance to inflation.
I don’t know how you feel when you see these two words, you can pause and let yourself think about it!
Before starting this topic, let me summarize a book I read in my free time, which is a biography of Elon Musk:
Here I mainly summarize what I have seen from this book:
From the point of view of Musk’s every entrepreneurial venture, he has his own direction judgment and market judgment, that is, he is good at observation. In addition, Musk has made it clear that he wants to do one thing, and he will do it without any hesitation, even if he loses everything. .
From the initial zip2, paypal, all reflect the opportunity that Musk is good at watching the market! And to the early Tesla, space x, and solar city.
There is also Master, who is particularly good at recruiting talents, and they are all the kind of talents who want to achieve something as much as himself, so everyone is like-minded, and it is easy to come together.
However, after reading this book, I was most touched by Musk's ability to learn, execute, and deal with problems; let me give you an example here, whenever Tesla is deeply involved in public opinion issues, he alone takes over the entire public relations The team, handled things perfectly!
I will briefly describe these, interested friends can go and have a look! Many things in this book have been proposed in the 1990s, such as paypal's online payment!
Then go back to the topic just now: enlightenment. This is a word that Mr. Buffett said in Buffett’s shareholder meeting these days. It is very worth thinking about. Let me explain this enlightenment from a technical point of view.
If I want to learn electronics, I may have been exposed to programming from the very beginning of the single-chip microcomputer, and then participated in various electronic competitions and programming competitions in school. After some people have experienced these, they will understand before they graduate. The road I want to go in the later stage, and some people, even after graduating and working for a few years, can't find their own direction in this industry, and they are still very confused!
In fact, looking at our entire life, is enlightenment worth our deep thinking?
Then there is Buffett who also mentioned how to resist inflation. The old man's teaching is to invest in yourself and improve yourself. In everyone's consciousness, ordinary people resist inflation by buying wealth management products. In fact, this problem is not a problem. The key core problem is that if wealth management products disappear, money will be worthless in a high inflation environment. In other words In other words, you can’t buy anything with the money in your hands, the most basic problem of food and clothing; but from another perspective, if you have a certain skill (or if you have no income for this skill, you can’t afford it. will starve to death!).
Think carefully about this angle, is it important for self-improvement (external factors are only temporary, internal factors are permanent!), then as for how to improve yourself, it depends on the individual!
Well, this period of insight is simply shared here!
Life abuses me thousands of times, I treat life like first love!
