1/ A thread about the Knowledge Economy, Ideas, & Roam Research.

In the knowledge economy, your ideas are as good as cash so you must be intentional about how you spend/invest them.

Just as everyone should have a money philosophy, every creator should have an idea philosophy.

2/ You can donate your ideas through one-on-one conversations (helpful DMS - mine are always open), or with volunteer coaching.

3/ You can use your ideas to cover some of your advertising costs by giving them away for free on social platforms (like this one).

4/ You can invest your ideas by depositing them on platforms you own like a blog or a newsletter. It's like your own personal mutual fund account. Just make sure to practice dollar-cost averaging better than I have - consistency rewards with returns in both money and ideas.

5/ You can invest your ideas in riskier stocks - say by guest posting, appearing on a podcast, publishing in a great journal, etc..

6/ And finally you can invest your ideas by using them to build assets that provide ongoing income. Books, Courses, Coaching, Retreats, etc...

7/ The longer your ideas are public, the longer they have to generate interest, and just like with your cash - interest compounds.

8/ You can use the above categories to state your idea philosophy and diversify and balance your portfolio. Something I wish I had done a long time ago. I have a bias toward 2 and 3.

9/ My Idea Philosophy is... stop hoarding them in the dark. I've never gotten pleasure from looking at the numbers in the account. Some do and that's okay. Donate 30-40%, 20% in my mutual fund, 40% building assets for my family and personal satisfaction.

10/ I have many years of knowledge collection, ideas, and skills in diverse areas sitting in notebooks online and off. Now I've moved it all to Roam Research I am rebalancing. Follow me for more of 2 and 3.
