THREAD // How to gain wealth

1. To be "wealthy" is to own your time.

Wealthy people get to wake up each morning and decide exactly how they'd like to spend their day.
2. The way to gain freedom over your time is to own assets that earn money for you while you sleep.

An asset is anything that tends to increase in value over time or pays you money simply for owning it. Some examples are real estate, stocks, bonds, websites, and businesses.
3. You can buy and/or build these assets.

For example, you could use your paycheck to buy stock index funds.

Or you could dedicate your time to building a website that earns income for you while you sleep through using SEO.
4. Once you acquire enough assets that earn money for you, you no longer need a day job to pay the bills. That's wealth.

12 tips for improved sleep from "Why We Sleep"

1. Stick to a sleep schedule. "Go to bed and wake up at the same time each day."

2. Exercise is great, but not too late in the day. "Try to exercise at least 30 minutes on most days but not later than two hours before bedtime."
3. Avoid caffeine and nicotine in the afternoon or later.

4. Avoid alcoholic drinks before bed. "You tend to wake up in the middle of the night when the effects of the alcohol have worn off."

5. Avoid large meals and beverages late at night.
6. If possible, avoid medications that delay or disrupt your sleep. "Some commonly prescribed heart, blood pressure, or asthma medications, as well as some over-the-counter and herbal remedies for coughs, colds, or allergies, can disrupt sleep patterns."

THREAD // Quitting my job at 25

Ever since graduating college and working at a traditional 9-5, I hated many aspects of Corporate America including:

-Commutes
-Bad managers
-Performance reviews
-Pointless meetings
-Office politics
-Lack of control over my schedule
I quickly realized that I wanted to achieve financial independence so that I could walk away from a traditional job altogether.

However, starting at $0 it would take me ~16 years to hit F.I. (25x ann expenses) even with a 50% savings rate (assuming 5% ann. returns)
While ~16 years is much shorter than the traditional working period of 40-45 years, I still wasn’t thrilled about the idea of working at a corporate job for a little over a decade to achieve financial independence.

I wanted freedom sooner.

THREAD // Advice on Saving & Investing in Your 20s

1. When you’re just starting out, focus on becoming an income machine, not an investment guru.

2. Don't obsess over finding your passion. Instead, master some skill, interest, or knowledge that others find valuable.
3. Once you do start making serious money, resist the temptation to blow it on lifestyle upgrades.

4. Outside of your day job, become a voracious learner.
5. Aim to minimize the “big three” expenses of housing, transportation, and food. Get these three under control and you can slip up in other areas (entertainment, dining out, etc.) and still not break the bank.

A short thread on @JGForsyth exlposive(ly) transparent memo from the Cummings wing of Downing Street - and what it reveals about dynamics as we limp to Failure Friday /thread.
So the obvious First point is that it comes from the Cummings Wing of Downing Street which as I first reported on the day before the Benn act vote has always viewed the negs as a “sham”/2

It’s clearly designed to head off any prospect of a deal, including the risk that the EU offers an NI only backstop with a time limit - a fear which itself reveals how little they understand where we are. /3

Where are the #arrests?

I know a lot of people are pissed off that they're not seeing mass arrests after all the #proof that has been uncovered

I understand, trust me. I want to end the #DeepState as bad as anyone

Why should I #TrustThePlan? 🤔

I'll explain ☟
First I will get into the 'WHY', then I'll explain the timeline.

The Why:
I want what everyone wants, mass arrests around the #world, the entire #DeepState, gone.

The thing you have to ask yourself is, what will the outcome be? For every action, there is a reaction.☟
What would happen if Obama was arrested tomorrow? Civil unrest/war. #MSM has people lost in a #FalseReality, they will fight because they have been trained to think it's the right thing to do.

Things are slow played for three reasons. One, to do everything by the book. Two,...☟

 “It’s About Time!”
by @DickieArmour


You have 24 hours a day.

But how do you spend your time?

This #tweetstorm is a wake up call.

It’s about time, and how you spend it.

#Time #TimeManagement #24Hours #itsabouttime
2.
 Let’s assume each day begins and ends at midnight.

Let’s assume we work for 10 hours a day, 5 days a week.

That leaves 14 hours.

We sleep for 8 hours a night.
3.
 That’s leaves 6 hours every week day.

And 16 hours each Saturday and Sunday.

That’s 6 x 5 = 30 hours Mon - Fri + 32 hours at the weekend.



A total of 62 hours a week, of your time to spend.

@MUschoolofEduca @monmouthu #thread When I started the program, I had just moved to Manalapan. On many mornings, I would wake up before 5am to pick vegetables for my family and church. It is hard to believe, but agricultural work was a major part of my community's life in the early 1980s. /1
@MUschoolofEduca @monmouthu I attended @ranneyschool, so I saw that other families did not do what we did every day. I was also aware of how much my family relied on civil and military service to make ends meet. /2
@MUschoolofEduca @monmouthu @ranneyschool Being black in western Monmouth County, there was an assumption that we were poor, had always been poor, and would likely always be poor. Access to the #BlackBrainBelt from Red Bank to Belmar changed those ideas. /3
