    1. Stop buying dumb shit. If you do, make it rare and inexpensive. 2. Life isn't fair. Stop trying to make it fair. Make it unfair to your advantages instead. 3. Your employer does not care about you. If you can make money elsewhere, do it.

    4. Introverts aren't anti-social, they just hate drama, stupidity, and fake people. 5. Invest early and often so work becomes optional sooner. 6. Successful people aren't special. 99% of them just never gave up.

    11. A sheep who drives a Mercedes to the slaughterhouse is still a sheep. 12. 9-5 jobs are inefficient income sources. Start an online side hustle ASAP. 13. "Escaping" on a vacation does not relieve stress. Doing work you enjoy does.

    14. Making Monday your favorite day of the week is the key to happiness. 15. Start exercising and never stop. It's the best form of therapy on earth. 16. Take (smart) risks. Never doing so promises you will die with regret.

    17. Stop drinking and eating so much sugar. It's why most people are overweight. 18. Being "busy" isn't a flex. It's just admitting your schedule controls you. 19. Ignoring the internet as an income source is like going to the gym to watch TV.

    20. Most college degrees are terrible investments. 21. Talk is cheap. Results are the only things that matter. 22. Avoid people who don't read or care about learning new things.

    I much prefer to sell to LEGO buyers. They are higher quality consumers and never fraudulently return my LEGO investments. I’ll make multiple 6 figures this year (like I always do) thanks to them. You can read more about how I do that here: newsletter.jarrylew.com/p/the-best-inv…

    College: $80,000 Wedding: $30,000 House: $500,000 New Car: $50,000 $600,000+ in debt is what society considers “successful”. In reality, it's just a trap to keep you a wage slave for life.
