I’m on episode 40 of the cultivation drama, and I’ve gained some new insights. It’s actually the same logic as investing: If you want to live long, the key is to endure. Never take on risks that could knock you out completely. Cultivation and crypto investing are similar in that it’s way too easy to ‘die.’ Being smart is far less important than having the patience to endure. Looking at a 10-year cycle, almost everyone loses to the turtle who just holds $BTC, doesn’t trade, doesn’t touch altcoins, doesn’t play with small coins, doesn’t chase memes, and doesn’t mess with contracts. Smart and aggressive people die quickly. Smart and aggressive people die quickly. In the age of artificial intelligence, the latest research shows that in 10-15 years, with AI’s help, all human diseases will be solved. Humans could live 50 years longer, on average. So harming your body now just to make a little money is absolutely not worth it—it’s a foolish move. For example, grinding through startups or pulling all-nighters for work—these behaviors drain your life and aren’t worth it. Always operate at 70-80% of your capacity, whether it’s work or investing. That’s the right strategy. Every extra year you live brings you closer to a whole new world. With those additional 50 years, humanity could spark another technological revolution. An era where everyone achieves financial freedom, mental freedom, and time freedom. But if, within the next 10-15 years, you damage your body through excessive investing or entrepreneurship and end up with an incurable disease, you’ll miss out on this new human era. If you can endure and step into this era, all the money-making, hustling, and grinding we’re doing now will feel like the childhood days of fighting over erasers with classmates—its significance will only lie in the memories.
