@CrashiusClay69 Yes, but you can learn so much about the world by being in new exotic culture. When I book a Homestay in Peru or Uzbekistan and stay with a local family, I get experiences I can’t experience where I’m from.

Traveling is for peasants
Why would u want to travel so badly when u can make ur home the ultimate place in the world?
U can have tennis, basketball, spa, gym, martial arts area, big green grass field to run, better showers, better furniture, better taste
Than 99.9% of the hotels or places you vacation to
If you’re like me and you enjoy being at home
Fuck what everyone says
Mission #1 is make a masterpiece home where you never have to leave, and if you do leave…
you always want to come back badly bc ur home is better than any other place
People wanna blow their money on cars and tryna look cool to everyone outside of their house
Not enough people talk about how having a MASTERPIECE crib > than 99% of shit u could ever spend money on
Lot of rich ppl that have trash finishes and trash designed homes…
I’d rather have a 5M masterpiece home and $100k cash
Than $5M in stocks and a shit home
If you’re the latter, you’re gay as fuck
Not the first time I rant about this, and it won’t be the last
Let’s work towards making our own masterpieces brozinkerbells

The smartest person in every room you've ever been in is almost always the brokest and once you understand WHY you'll stop trying to be smart and start actually making money
I sat across from a guy last year who could explain market dynamics better than any economist on earth. Could see patterns in data nobody else noticed. Could dismantle any business model in 30 seconds and tell you exactly why it would fail
Brilliant mf. Genuinely impressive to listen to
Couldn't make rent
Then I've watched guys who can barely spell build $50M+ businesses by doing one simple thing over and over again without overthinking it
This pattern shows up everywhere and it's not a coincidence
Smart people have a disease and the disease is called "I can see why that won't work"
They can identify 40 reasons a plan will fail before anyone else identifies 1 reason it might succeed and they think this makes them valuable when it actually makes them PARALYZED
They mistake analysis for progress. Criticism for contribution. Knowing for doing
And they sit in rooms full of people dumber than them making 10x more money wondering what the fuck happened
I know because I used to be this person. I could find the flaw in every plan and I thought that made me the most useful guy in any room
It made me the most annoying guy in any room. The people actually building things didn't want my analysis. They wanted someone who would shut up and execute the imperfect plan while they figured it out in motion
Here's how it actually plays out
Version 1 = Analysis paralysis disguised as "due diligence"
I spent 11 weeks "researching" before I launched my first business. By the time I went live a guy who started 3 days after having the same idea already had 50 paying customers
He knew more about the market than I did. Not because he was smarter. Because he had REAL data from REAL humans while I had a color-coded spreadsheet and zero revenue
Every week I spent planning he was collecting information I couldn't access from my bedroom
Version 2 = Ego attachment to being right
This one is worse because it's invisible
When you've always been the smartest kid in the room your entire identity gets built around being correct about things
The problem with business is that being correct doesn't pay
Being FAST pays. Being willing to be wrong pays. Being able to look stupid for 6 months while you figure shit out in public pays
Smart people would rather be right and broke than wrong and rich because being wrong in public feels like dying to someone whose entire self-worth is built on their intelligence
I've literally watched people argue with their own sales data because accepting the data meant accepting that their original analysis was wrong and their brain could not handle it
Version 3 = The social trap
This is the one that really fucks people up
Smart people attract other smart people and they form these circles where everyone is brilliant and everyone is analytical and everyone can explain exactly why things work and nobody is actually DOING anything
They call it "networking"
It's group therapy for people who are afraid to start
They have dinners and talk about ideas and debate strategy and share articles and it feels incredibly productive and at the end of the year nobody made any money but they all got smarter
Meanwhile some 22 year old who can't find Portugal on a map started posting tiktoks about a product he doesn't fully understand and he's clearing $40K/month because he didn't know enough to be afraid
I had a friend tell me "that's not going to work because the CAC on paid social for a $30 product with no backend is negative unit economics"
He was RIGHT about the logistics
Completely wrong about the outcome
The guy running those ads didn't give a shit about front-end unit economics because he was building a buyer list he monetized 6 months later for $2.1M
My friend is still explaining at dinners why that business model doesn't work. The guy who ran it is retired in Lisbon
"But Eli some businesses DO fail because of bad strategy"
Yeah no shit. But 100x more businesses fail because they never launched than because they launched wrong. A bad launch gives you data. A perfect plan gives you nothing except the illusion of progress and a really organized Notion workspace
The richest people I've ever worked with were not the smartest
They were the FASTEST
Least attached to being right about anything. They surrounded themselves with smart people specifically so they didn't have to be the one thinking and they spent their time ACTING on whatever came back within 24 hours even if it was imperfect and even if their smart friends told them it wouldn't work
If you read this whole thing and your first instinct is to find a flaw in my argument you just proved my point

been in the trenches for the past 2 months after losing >70% of my revenue from demonetizations in jan/feb
decided to pivot strategy and enter a brand new format in completely different niches than what i've been doing since Q3 last year
spent the first weeks of February building the tools for it and launched around 15 channels over the month
fast forward to now, monetized a bunch of them in the past 2 weeks and printing again
three things i want to share that helped me bounce back quick:
- learned to use claude code. one of the highest ROI thing you can do rn, learn the basics and the use cases will come. i'll post some sauce soon on how i use it to launch channels
- learning from my mistakes - sounds obvious but after getting hit by demonetizations, i didn't just go blindly for the same format or niche, i took some time to spot the new opportunities on the market, built a quality product for them then went all in with volume. can't remember who said this first, but with most YTA channels, quality is a one-time moat - it takes roughly the same effort to produce 100 videos at 5/10 quality as it does to produce 100 at 9/10, so make sure you're doing the latter
- if you're actually building channels (and not selling a course, we've got enough of those) post about it on X. the space is quiet rn and it's a great time to make a name for yourself. this account has opened doors for me that i wouldn't have known even existed otherwise and is part of the reason i was able to get back on my feet quick

Eastern Europe is the most exploitable talent arbitrage on the planet right now and almost nobody in the Western business world is paying attention because they're too busy overpaying for mid work from the Philippines and India…
Romania, Bulgaria, Serbia, Poland, Ukraine, Croatia. Average salaries $500-1,000/month. But the talent coming out of these countries isn't $500/month talent. It's $5,000-8,000/month talent priced at a tenth of what you'd pay in the US because the local economy hasn't caught up to the skill level yet
That gap is the exploit
Every other "hire cheap overseas" conversation defaults to Southeast Asia or South Asia. And sure, the prices are low. But anyone who's actually tried to scale operations in those regions knows the pattern. Language barriers. Cultural disconnect. Equipment issues. Endless training loops. You spend more time managing output than you save in cost. The $4/hour rate sounds nice until you're on revision 14 and the work still isn't usable
Eastern Europe skips all of that
These countries have legitimate university systems. Strong STEM education. English fluency across the entire 18-30 demographic, sometimes better than native speakers in the US (not even joking). They grew up on the same internet, same memes, same cultural references. Zero cultural gap when working with Western businesses. You don't need to explain context. You don't need to translate intent. They just get it
And they have real infrastructure. Laptops. Fast wifi. Proper software. Modern tools. You're not onboarding someone who needs you to walk them through basic setup. You're hiring someone who's already operating at a professional level but happens to live in a country where $1,000/month is a great salary
The applications go way beyond content. Developers in Bucharest building full-stack apps for $1,500/month that would cost you $8-12k from a US agency. Designers in Belgrade producing brand assets at agency quality for $800/month. Sales closers in Sofia running calls in perfect English for $1,000/month plus commission. Media buyers in Warsaw managing $50k+/month ad accounts for $1,200/month. Copywriters, project managers, data analysts, customer support, operations managers. Every single role in your business can be filled from Eastern Europe at 80-90% cost reduction with zero quality drop
The training speed is the real cheat code though. Hand someone in Bucharest a brief on Monday and you get back usable output by Wednesday. Not "needs 6 rounds of feedback" output. Actually usable, deploy-immediately output. The baseline competency is just different when the talent pool is educated, tech-native, and hungry
It's common now for operators running lean businesses to have their entire team in Eastern Europe except themselves. 4-8 people. Total payroll $5-8k/month. Output equivalent to a $40-60k/month US team. The business runs 24/7 because the time zone overlap with the US is actually perfect for async work
(btw it doesn't hurt that Eastern Europe has the baddest bitches on the planet. If you need on-camera talent for any kind of brand content targeting Western audiences, a girl in Sofia or Bucharest is visually indistinguishable from a girl in LA but costs a fraction. The talent pool for that specific use case is bottomless and nobody's tapped it properly yet)
The freelance platforms are the worst place to find these people. The best ones are in local Facebook groups, Telegram channels, and Eastern European Twitter. You DM 50 people, 40 respond within hours because an $800/month retainer is life-changing money and they actually take pride in the work. The talent density is absurd once you know where to look

I'm buying a church.
I’ve made a cash offer of £225,000 to purchase this church, which was about to close and be sold off to developers.
I'm fed up with driving past all these churches in the UK that used to thrive, support the community, and feed the homeless.
Now, just look at these beautiful church buildings.
So many are boarded up, closed down, with developers queueing up to profit from converting them into flats.
I simply can't accept that a building built to glorify Jesus for generations can be turned into something solely for profit.
So I've placed an offer on a church in my hometown.
My plan is to buy it and offer it completely free of charge, with zero rent, to a church willing to worship Jesus here and serve others.
What do you think of this idea?
