@DamianProsa I got rich exclusively by using debt to buy assets. Definitely not by trying to outwork the money printers but you do you.

I built CourtWatch.us — a free public database for American citizens who deserve safer communities.
You can track which judges released defendants who then got rearrested, skipped court, or violated their release conditions. All public records. All free.
I started with Orange County FL and will be expanding to all 67 Florida counties and eventually every state in the country. This first batch of info is from 2024 and since public reports are released in March/April for the previous year, data is behind. But I wanted to see if this is plausible. After adding 2024,I'll add 2025 and then figure out how to get real-time-data uploaded.
It's in beta — would love to know what you think 👇
Numbers don't lie, but criminals do.

So, I did exactly what you asked and I sat down and read ALL 261 pages of your bill.
It does support mass amnesty and I'll tell you exactly where:
Pages 162-170... The Dream Act:
You grant conditional lawful permanent resident status to ILLEGAL ALIENS who:
>Have been continuously present in the U.S. since January 1, 2021
>Entered before age 18
>Meet education, employment, or military service requirements
>Pass criminal background checks
On top of this, in Sec. 2102(b)(3)(B), DACA recipients get fast-tracked to conditional green card status.
...which is literally mass amnesty
BUT THE BILL GOES EVEN FURTHER!!!
On pages 204-217, you present the Dignity Program:
This is a separate track for illegal aliens who don't qualify for the Dream Act.
If you are an illegal aliens who:
> Was continuously present since December 31, 2020
>Pay a $1,000 upfront "restitution" fee
>Submit biometrics, pass a background check
>No felony convictions
You get work authorization + travel authorization + deferred removal for 7 years
After completing the 7-year program (paying $7,000 total in fees, staying employed, obeying laws, paying back taxes):
We grant you:
> "Dignity Status" which is essentially a lawful nonimmigrant status, which is renewable any number of times
>Work and travel authorization
But the most important bit that you're hiding here is that it totally suspends deportation of anyone who qualifies for this.
This would effective end ALL MASS DEPORTATIONS in the United States immediately.
You are a liar, you are a fraud, everything you stand for is fake... did YOU read your own bill?
Because I just did, and you are a damned LIAR!!!!!

@moneyfetishist @TheQualityLab every time i come across a profound book list i freeze up and consider that i'd probably find the same wisdom and more from the bible. so sometimes i bite. most times i grab fiction slop or twitter.
English

appreciate that
honest answer: there is no best book. the question is wrong. asking "what books should I read" without knowing what problem you are trying to solve is like asking a doctor for the best medicine without telling him what hurts
books are tools not trophies. the guy who reads 50 books a year and cannot close a deal has a reading hobby not an education. the guy who reads one book that solves the specific problem in front of him and applies it Monday morning is learning faster than everyone on Goodreads
so tell me what you are trying to get better at and I will give you the one book that matters for that. negotiation, sales, finance, management, thinking clearly, building something, understanding people. each of those has a different answer and reading the wrong one first wastes months you could have spent on the right one
the only universal advice I have on reading at any age is: read primary sources not summaries. do not read a blog post about Schelling's game theory. read Schelling. do not read a Twitter thread about Nietzsche. read Nietzsche. the person who summarized it for you removed the parts they did not understand which are usually the parts that matter most
but the books listed from @PEoperator at peoperator(.)co are not a bad start
English

bored on a flight. AMA
PE, M&A, deal structuring, operational stuff, Mittelstand, AI in boring industries, tax structures that make your accountant nervous, how to not get fcked when selling your company, game theory applied to literally anything, European vs American business culture, why your restaurant is bad, or whatever else you want to know
no topic off limits besides to my person.
ask
English

All books you've mentioned across your posts:
Business/game theory:
- The Strategy of Conflict – Thomas Schelling
- Beyond Good and Evil – Friedrich Nietzsche
- The Art of Being Right – Arthur Schopenhauer
- On War – Carl von Clausewitz
Philosophy/German classics:
- The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism – Max Weber
- Political Theology – Carl Schmitt
- Philosophy of Money & Philosophy of Landscape – Georg Simmel
- On the Genealogy of Morality – Friedrich Nietzsche
- The World as Will and Representation – Arthur Schopenhauer
- The Economy of Society – Niklas Luhmann
- The Decline of the West – Oswald Spengler
- Works of Immanuel Kant (general)
Plus the satirical kids book "My First Words: Selling to PE Edition" (jokingly sent to a seller in one deal thread).
That's every reference I found in your history.

No Kings explained for people who think they're fighting fascism.
You're standing in a crowd on Saturday. You look around and think yeah. No Kings. This is what democracy looks like.
Bro.
You're holding a sign made by a communist billionaire who lives in Shanghai.
You live in a constitutional republic.
Elections. Term limits. A free press that spent four years calling the president a fascist without one journalist being arrested.
The modern left's definition of fascism:
You love your country? Fascist.
You want to enforce the border? Racist.
You think parents should raise their kids? Bigot.
You want to know who's voting in your elections? Jim Crow.
Being patriotic is fascism to the modern left.
But every country has borders and enforces them. 176 countries require ID to vote. That's the definition of a country.
But the Democratic establishment told you otherwise. And you believed them.
Congress has a 15% approval rating. 80% of Americans disapprove. 97% of incumbents got re-elected.
Chuck Schumer. 46 years. Longer than Stalin.
Steny Hoyer. 45 years. Longer than Mao.
Mitch McConnell. 42 years. 5x more than Napoleon.
Nancy Pelosi. 39 years. Longer than Henry VIII.
Maxine Waters. 35 years. Longer than Mussolini.
Bernie Sanders. 35 years. Triple Hitler's entire reign.
Trump. 5 years and 3 months. Won the popular vote and the electoral vote.
But Trump is the king. Okay buddy.
You don't hate kings. You hate kings that aren't yours.
And Saturday they had you in the streets carrying their water.
The Democratic Party installed a president without letting you vote. Biden quit on a Sunday. By Tuesday your queen was crowned.
No primary. No debate. No ballot. First time since 1968.
Three days before your march every Senate Democrat voted against photo ID to vote.
During COVID you carried a vaccine card everywhere like a hall pass from the government just to eat at a restaurant.
But getting a birth certificate or waiting two hours at the DMV to prove you're a citizen before you vote? That's oppression.
The Democratic Party is pro illegal immigration.
Counts non-citizens in the Census. Census determines congressional seats. More non-citizens means more seats means more power. No voter ID means no way to check.
That's how you keep power without wearing a crown.
Biden built a censorship machine.
Pressured Facebook to suppress true information and admitted it in writing. Censored scientists. Censored doctors. Censored JOKES. The Biden White House told Facebook to remove "humor and satire."
They literally went after people for making fun of them. UK does it better tho...
Everything they censored turned out to be right. They just outsourced the silencing to Silicon Valley.
And it doesn't stop at speech.
The extreme left justifies taking children from families.
Six thousand schools rewrite children's identities without telling parents. And the State has the right to intervene.
The Hitler Youth did this. Mao's Red Guards did this. The Soviets built statues of a child who reported his own father.
Same playbook.
During Covid, your bakery got shut down. Church closed. You couldn't hold your dying mother's hand at the hospital.
But thousands packed together during BLM to burn Minneapolis and THAT was essential civic engagement. Obviously.
$2 billion in damage. 25 dead. 2,000 cops injured. 20 states burning. VP Kamala promoted a bail fund for the rioters. No investigation. No hearings.
January 6. One building. Few hours. 1,000 prosecuted. Two years of televised hearings.
Kings decide which violence counts. The left decided.
Charlie Kirk spent his life walking onto campuses asking for honest debate. He was assassinated.
CSIS terrorism database. 2025 is the first year in 30 years that left-wing attacks outnumber right-wing. Yet no one brings this up.
75% of liberal students say preventing a speaker from talking is justified. 27% say violence is acceptable.
Liberals who went to Trump rallies: "I never felt unsafe." "The experience changed me."
Conservatives who show up on liberal campuses get screamed at, blocked, and assassinated.
One side talks. The other side screams.
The Party for Socialism and Liberation marched with you Saturday.
Their stated purpose in their own words: "Revolution." Not reform. Marxism.
The system that killed a hundred million people last century. They had you holding their signs while they said it out loud.
500 groups. $3 billion in revenue. Pre-printed signs. The signs were ready before you were angry.
The money leads to Neville Roy Singham. Billionaire in Shanghai. Attends CCP workshops. Funnels millions through shell companies at UPS mailboxes. Three Congressional committees have subpoenaed him as a suspected CCP foreign agent.
You thought you were fighting for democracy. You were carrying water for Beijing.
"Liberals are leaving the First Amendment behind." Spoken by the ACLU lawyer who defended Nazis in court because it was their constitutional right.
Bill Clinton put 100,000 cops on the street. Reformed welfare. Said illegal immigration is wrong to a standing ovation. Told America the era of big government is over.
Today his own party would call him a fascist.
The 1990s Democrat defended free speech for Nazis. Yours censors doctors for telling the truth.
The 1990s Democrat held open primaries. Yours installed a nominee without a vote.
The 1990s Democrat trusted parents. Yours takes their children.
Historians measure fascism across eight traits. Here's who checks the boxes in 2026:
Censorship of political opposition. Democrats.
Contempt for democratic process. Democrats.
Tolerance of political violence. Democrats.
State ideology forced on families. Democrats.
Corporate-state fusion. Democrats.
Scapegoating and manufactured enemies. Both sides.
Cult of personality. Both sides.
Ultranationalism. Republicans.
Five for the left. One for the right. Two shared.
You marched against kings on Saturday.
You marched FOR kings.
You just didn't know which was which.
Stop being gaslit.
I hope you understand what's at stake.

Venmo has frozen my account because I have a tiny amount of Bitcoin in it. This is Bitcoin that they gave me from the Celsius bankruptcy that was so tiny I forgot about it and now I can not pay anyone in fiat because my account has been blocked for months.
Venmo literally put the Bitcoin in my account then said I can not use my account. And they never reply to customer support.
Reinstate my account and respond to your support requests, please.
This is actually the perfect ad for Why Bitcoin and Why Self-Custody.

This is central banking in a nutshell:
A group of rich guys go to the king and say: "Hey, you need money for your war. We'll give you all the money you want."
The king says: "Great, where's the money?"
They say: "We're going to make it up. We'll write numbers in a book and that's your money now."
The king says: "What do I owe you?"
They say: "You pay us back with interest."
The king says: "Where do I get that money?"
They say: "You tax your citizens."
The king says: "What if I can't pay it all back?"
They say: "That's fine. We'll lend you more. Same deal."
The king says: "And what do you do with the IOUs I gave you?"
They say: "We use them to prove we have money, so we can lend even more money to other people and charge them interest too."
The king says: "So you made up money, lent it to me, I tax my people to pay you back, and then you use my debt to make up even more money and lend it to everyone else?"
They say: "Yes."
The king says: "What did it cost you?"
They say: "Nothing."
That's literally how the Bank of England started in 1694. The Bank was formed to finance King William's war with France. The king gave the Bank a charter, granting it a monopoly on money.
The king could have as much money as he wanted. The bankers could always earn interest. Taxpayers covered the bill.
Now replace "king" with "United States Government" and you have the Federal Reserve in 1913. Same story, different country.
It doesn't end there.
185 central banks exist in the world today.
Across the globe, the governments get as much money as they want, the bankers load their pockets with interest, and the taxpayers pay for it all.
Oh, and if you don't pay your taxes, they'll fine you, penalize you, or throw you in jail.
The ONLY way out of this is to STOP USING THEIR MONEY.
As long as you're using the money that central banks control, the central banks will have control.
You have to stop giving them energy.
Use a different form of money that they can't control.
This is why Satoshi Nakamoto created Bitcoin.

@WallStreetMav gov entities are not incentivized to cut costs to save our tax dollars. when a program or an agency practices fiscal responsibility they are not rewarded for their prudence, they are punished with cuts.
English

This is why the US govt is $39 trillion in debt and has a $2 trillion budget deficit.
The people running these projects have no incentive to limit spending.
The Department of War had a now-terminated contract with Oracle that ran hundreds of millions of dollars over budget and lasted several years longer than it should have.
The original contract was for $39 million to install an off the shelf HR system. It ended up costing $280 million and then was cancelled.
It is ridiculous govt spending like this that drives people crazy. This is just one example of thousands of such projects in the US govt.
