If you're 30+ with <$1M then listen up. The only way to make up for lost time is to start going all in. Index funds will not make up the gap. This is serious.

Papa meows🐈got me into classical music at an early age. I started going through his CD collections since I was 10, and started composing music when I was 15. One of my tasks this trip was to clear out his CD collection since he passed 2 years ago, most of it I've been familiar with for over 3 decades. Deutsche Grammophon, Decca, EMI, Karajan, Solti, Horowitz... Everything's digital, and nobody uses CDs anymore, but I was able to donate the bulk of his collection to CD recycling companies who hopefully will be able to put them into good use. I saved about 10 CDs that he played the most frequently just for his memory, and I placed them next to his remains. Carpe diem.

I used to compose classical music pieces. They didn't really get played as it's not a popular genre, so I generated midi files from my scores. I'm going to pull a Puru Saxena now, since I too am a furu influencer in Hong Kong and share my "mix" with you, because I can.

at last saw the powerful/disturbing "The Secret Agent" (Brazilian, in Portuguese) which was nominated for an Academy award last year; directed by much-admired Kleber Filho & with a brilliant (if heartrending) performance by Wagner Moura, the first Brazilian actor to have been nominated for an Academy Award. this is indeed a grueling experience at nearly 3 hours of achingly "real" realism set beside which our American blockbusters "Sinners" & "One Battle at a Time" (also Academy Award nominees/ winners) are big/bombastic/Broadway-amplified entertainments that scarcely share the planet with "The Secret Agent." with all respect for American filmmaking, just a few minutes saturated in this quietly terrifying film reveal to us the difference between enormous American affluence in film budgets & that of the rest of the world, of "indie" masterpieces.

Cannes 2011: probably the most roundly satisfying slate of winners in all the years I've attended. No glaring omissions, a perfectly judged tie in Grand Prix, a Palme for the ages. (Yes, I know MELANCHOLIA had it in the bag before that press conference. I don't care!)

"What’s basically wrong with Kubrick’s version of 'The Shining' (1980) is that it’s a film by a man who thinks too much & feels too little; and that’s why, for all its virtuoso effects, it never gets you by the throat and hangs on the way real horror should." --- Stephen King Full Excerpt: "Stanley Kubrick‘s version of 'The Shining' (1980) is a lot tougher for me to evaluate [than 'Carrie' (1976)], because I’m still profoundly ambivalent about the whole thing. I’d admired Kubrick for a long time and had great expectations for the project, but I was deeply disappointed in the end result. Parts of the film are chilling, charged with a relentlessly claustrophobic terror, but others fall flat. I think there are two basic problems with the movie. First, Kubrick is a very cold man—pragmatic and rational—and he had great difficulty conceiving, even academically, of a supernatural world. He used to make transatlantic calls to me from England at odd hours of the day and night, and I remember once he rang up at seven in the morning and asked, “Do you believe in God?” I wiped the shaving cream away from my mouth, thought a minute and said, “Yeah, I think so.” Kubrick replied, “No, I don’t think there is a God,” and hung up. Not that religion has to be involved in horror, but a visceral skeptic such as Kubrick just couldn’t grasp the sheer inhuman evil of the Overlook Hotel. So he looked, instead, for evil in the characters and made the film into a domestic tragedy with only vaguely supernatural overtones. That was the basic flaw: Because he couldn’t believe, he couldn’t make the film believable to others. The second problem was in characterization and casting. Jack Nicholson, though a fine actor, was all wrong for the part. His last big role had been in 'One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest' (1975), and between that and his manic grin, the audience automatically identified him as a loony from the first scene. But the book is about Jack Torrance’s gradual descent into madness through the malign influence of the Overlook, which is like a huge storage battery charged with an evil powerful enough o corrupt all those who come into contact with it. If the guy is nuts to begin with, then the entire tragedy of his downfall is wasted. For that reason, the film has no center and no heart, despite its brilliantly unnerving camera angles and dazzling use of the Steadicam. What’s basically wrong with Kubrick’s version of 'The Shining' is that it’s a film by a man who thinks too much and feels too little; and that’s why, for all its virtuoso effects, it never gets you by the throat and hangs on the way real horror should. I’d like to remake 'The Shining' someday, maybe even direct it myself if anybody will give me enough rope to hang myself with." (From Stephen King's interview to Playboy, 1983) P.S: On this day, 46 years ago, "The Shining" (1980) had its limited release in the USA & Turkey.

Korean funeral company "Parents' Love" lost ₩49,800,000,000 of their clients' money on a 2x $BMNR long trade. Insane.

Jersey Shore Investor@njshoreinvest·
My friends ask me why I don't just buy our dream house now for $2-3M. I get the appeal, this is the finish line we were all told to chase growing up. Here's the trade nobody mentions. You don't just buy the house. You buy the mortgage that decides when you can quit. You buy the performance reviews you can't afford to bomb. You buy the Sunday night anxiety that comes with knowing a bad quarter at work changes everything. I'd rather have $3M sitting in the market. It buys the option to walk away from my job tomorrow. It buys time off whenever I want it. It buys the quiet in my own head when my boss sends a Friday afternoon email. The dream house is a nice view from a cage. In 10 years I can have both. Right now I only need the one that sets me free.

I have a private goal in mind for the next few years... I want to buy a Townhouse in the middle of Manhattan and live their part time so I can hang out with my friends @amitisinvesting @stevenfiorillo @RealMattMoney. Maybe we can pool some capital together and buy a place that has a studio on the ground level and invite guests. NYC's First retail investor Financial Podcast studio. What are your thoughts?
