I just turned 30, and I would like to beat inflation, but a simple S&P 500 index fund doesn't seem aggressive enough to meet my needs, especially if I want to retire by the age of 35.

What highly aggressive investment strategies would you reccomend?

I've gone down this road before. Blindly trading options in the pursuit of money.

I'm not very smart, but do a lot of cocaine, which makes me great at playing the Wall Street games.

But what is money made that isn't earned? A worthless frivolity, glamour and cash and appearance that you don't have to work for.

No, the only purpose I could ever see for myself is trying to build something. And I'm not good at building things. So I need to identify the right people, the people who can build, and I need to bring them together and help them build something.

Or I would be lost.

I can't tell if you're being serious or not. But I really want to get into trading stocks, commodities, and other derivatives. I've been doing my own research, and studying in (free) places such as Khan academy, also Martin Shkreli has a youtube channel where he teaches finance, goes into yearly reports (k/q10?), and writing very basic models to predict stock price.

How do you "play the wallstreet games"?

I have a degree in Aerospace... but so does half of India, and I'm making less money per hour as an engineer than I was in uni as a private tutor.


That aside, if I did have enough money to not have to worry, I'd go into politics, and "build" an open free trade zone/town hoping to become the next 80's/90's Hong Kong. If that's too grandiose, I'd settle for a small "Austrian" private school. What would you want to build?

Ok. I'm going to give you the best investing advice you will ever receive.

Listen to everything everyone tells you to do. Then, don't do that.

They're fucking losers who surround themselves by assholes who engage in groupthink.

You aren't part of a group. You don't need to think like they do. You need to think like Theo. And Theo don't do no thinking at all.

>I'm not very smart, but do a lot of cocaine

Start dealing cocaine?
