    So, as you can see, it’s complicated to understand this world, but there’s really nothing to understand about it. People are crazy and don’t know why, because they are being manipulated and pushed around like sheep. The ones in power know everything, but also have their limitations within their own game. And people like me, well people like you and me, can merely try to make a living in the best way they can, without feeling frustrated about the craziness in this world. I’m gambling in the fact that, whatever happens, people will need internet, and someone will always be alive to buy some books and read. And, if you think ahead of your time, ahead of what everyone tells you that you should be doing, you will always be doing well in any business you choose to do.

    Then I come as a teacher, without any book, late for class, talking shit that nobody understands, and crazy scary things, and keep asking questions and talking to students far after the bell has rung. And wow, everyone thinks in their mind, this is a very irresponsible teacher that doesn't even give a break to his students. The bell gave the sign, is time to go, and if the topic is important nobody cares. That’s how people think, and yes, not caring about it is being irresponsible, at least, towards my own results. That’s why I decided not to teach anyone anymore.

    Sometimes you develop skills out of lack of options. For example, if you work for yourself, and don’t have a salary, this raises your level of responsibility tremendously. And most people can’t handle it. So, they may say whatever they want when their business fails, but it’s always related to the same. The pressure of having a very high level of responsibility for years is too high. The average seems to be 2 to 5 years for nearly all businesses.

    I'm not neglecting the fact, nevertheless, that people say the truth when they claim that they couldn't handle a business, a family, children and problems that were unexpected. But all of this goes back to responsibility and finds answers there. And yes, sometimes the levels of responsibility are beyond human control, but you always have, at least, responsibility over how you handle responsibility.

    The way I think is very different, and for me to transform 3 dollars in 3 thousand dollars, I have to be very wise. Actually, wiser than the majority, because the majority isn’t wise. The majority would think that I would need to publish 3 thousand books, and therefore that’s impossible and writing books is stupid, and that’s what they tell me all the time. Or at least, told in the past. Now they don’t because they know I don’t struggle with money, but that’s the only reason.

    Politics isn't about trust but mechanisms. You can’t risk millions of people because of the trust between two. You have to think about mechanisms that are efficient, and trust can be seen later, if those mechanisms are workable

    And I am definitely one important variable in my business, because I am the business.
