Age is not an excuse to not try. At the age of 32, Julius Caesar broke down in tears before a statue of Alexander the Great, realizing he had accomplished almost nothing in his life while Alexander had already conquered much of the known world. Serving as a minor official in Spain and burdened by heavy debts, Caesar felt his existence was insignificant by comparison. This moment of painful self-reflection became a turning point that sparked a fierce new determination. He returned to Rome, rose rapidly through politics, conquered Gaul, invaded Britain, won a civil war, and fundamentally transformed Rome into a vast empire.

I’ve been married for five years, and my wife does most of the cooking and cleaning. I hardly do those things. Why? Because she cooks three types of meals on the weekend that last from Monday to Friday. She only does laundry on weekends. She only cleans on weekends. We also do our shopping only on weekends. I had to help create these routines for her because she kept complaining about the “mental load” crap. Women create a lot of this mental load for themselves and then complain that motherhood is hard. No, you made motherhood hard on yourselves. She doesn’t have to deep-clean the floor late at night. She can do it tomorrow. She doesn’t have to do laundry late at night either. Laundry can even be done on the weekend. She doesn’t have to wash the dishes immediately; they can wait until tomorrow.

The fact that they complained about this puts into perspective just how lazy they actually are.

Do you know one thing many modern women do not know? It is the fact that the only way a woman can ever be loved the way she wants to be loved is by being with a man much older than she is. A woman is loved best by an older man. With older men, her eternal childlike nature is condoned, and her stupidity is frequently forgiven. Because to older men, her insufferable nature is somewhat a function of age rather than a character flaw. Thus, she is held to a lesser standard in such an environment. She is “understood.” Financial security may seem like the primary reason, but another factor contributing to women’s hypergamous nature is men’s differing perceptions of them with age. That is, unlike men her age, who often lack the sensitivity, perhaps the patience, to see beyond curves and cannot separate age from body size, older men perceive more than just the exterior. They look through the lens of behaviour and general disposition and see the youthful “innocence” in her, and treat her accordingly, as a child. Women enjoy  grace from older men more than from any other source. Not nature, not even God, tolerates women more than older men. Older men often view women as naive, overlooking their excesses. Conversely, with men her age, she is held accountable for her actions, something many women find burdensome. A 23-year-old man, considering himself mature enough to think independently, expects the same level of awareness and thoughtfulness from his female counterpart. This high logical standard can be detrimental to a woman’s whimsical and emotional modus operandi. However, to a 40-year-old man, a 25-year-old woman is not “old enough to think” independently. It is not love. It is our design, as humans, to rarely consider those far younger than us old enough to ever be able to think and act like us, regardless of their age and our age difference. So, a 40-year-old man anticipates certain behaviours, such as mood swings, tantrums, and histrionics, as part of the package of dating a younger woman. This man, seeing himself as sufficiently mature, perceives his younger woman as not yet reasonable. Thus, he is gracious. He chastises little, criticises sparingly, and adapts to her psychological tendencies far better than men her age could. This is literally how women want to be loved. There is no safer place to be a woman than in an older man’s companionship. Women know this. They want this. Those on social media expressing displeasure towards these arrangements are swines.

Should be noted (thx other replies) that the guy’s parents live in separate rooms, aka dead bedroom. To me the middle class sinkie without a landed (leased or owned) that has a loving marriage and doesn’t have slaves (maids) is both richer and wiser than the very weird autistic rich families we seem to breed in this nation. Ultimately many rich sinkie kids experience the most love and care from their maids, and seeing them return into a Harry Potter hole in the staircase each day really does a number on you after a while. We are a munchausen’d nation in many ways. Slavery never died in Singapore and that's how we maintain our top spot in SEA. The reason why we succeed? Our slave races are simply not physically violent enough to band together and revolt. If our migrant worker (maids/construction) were from a different region of the world we would stand zero chance against the violence that would eventually be enacted against us. Geographical providence. Say what you will about the Sentosa elite like Justin Sun but his homes have class vs this evolved village dweller mentality.

Also the audacity to stand there and justify your choices in the dehumanisation of your helper. Smh

rich people with helpers are interesting because they'll have these massive houses with guest rooms but will order a plastic box so that their helpers can live in them

A male bee mates for less than 5 seconds in midair. The ejaculation is so explosive you can hear it pop from a few feet away. His body rips in half. He falls dead before hitting the ground. And he is one of the lucky males in the hive. When a male bee, called a drone, chases down a queen mid-flight at speeds of 22 miles per hour, his entire reproductive organ turns inside out. The pressure required for this comes from nearly all the blood in his body, which rushes downward to force the organ outward like a spring. The semen fires into the queen with so much force it makes the audible pop. The organ then snaps off and stays lodged inside her like a cork. As he flips backward off her body, his abdomen rips open. The next drone waiting his turn has to physically yank out the dead male's cork before he can mate. The same thing then happens to him. The queen does this 12 to 20 times in a single afternoon. She flies up to a spot in the sky that beekeepers call a drone congregation area. Picture an invisible meeting point about 50 to 130 feet above the ground where up to 11,000 male bees from as many as 240 different hives are hovering, waiting for her. These spots stay in the exact same locations year after year, sometimes for over a decade. No one fully understands how brand new drones, born only weeks earlier, find them. By the end of her mating run, the queen has collected around 100 million sperm cells. She keeps only 5 to 6 million in a tiny internal storage organ that keeps them alive for years. From that supply, she uses just two sperm cells per egg for the rest of her life, laying up to 2,000 eggs a day for 2 to 7 years. After that one afternoon in the sky, she will never mate again. A 2019 study from UC Riverside, the University of Copenhagen, and the University of Western Australia found that bee semen contains toxic proteins that temporarily blind the queen by interfering with how vision genes function in her brain. If she can't see well, she can't fly out again to mate with more males. Their semen also carries a separate protein that attacks and kills sperm cells from rival drones still inside her. The males keep competing long after every one of them is dead. The 99.9% of drones who never get to mate have it worse. As autumn arrives, the female worker bees in the hive stop feeding their brothers, then drag them out of the entrance after biting off their wings. The drones can't fly back in. They starve or freeze in the grass within days. The colony raises a fresh batch of disposable males the next spring, and the whole cycle starts over.

A mother octopus lays her eggs, then stops eating. She slowly starves to death while she guards them, and by the time they hatch, she's already gone. Her babies float off into the ocean and will never meet her. An Oxford scientist named Tim Coulson thinks these animals could be the ones to take over after we're gone. He laid it out in a 2024 book, and the case holds up. An octopus has about 500 million brain cells, roughly the same as a dog. Two-thirds of them aren't even in its head. They're spread through the eight arms, so each arm can taste what it touches and move on its own. Octopuses open jars. They carry coconut shells across the seafloor to hide under later. They've squeezed out of sealed tanks in the dark and gotten away. No animal without a backbone comes close. But being smart has never been enough to build a city. Everything humans built runs on one trick: each generation starts where the last one left off. A kid today learns in school what took people thousands of years to work out, and inherits all of it for free. An octopus inherits nothing. Its mother died before it hatched, so there's no one to copy and nothing left over from the octopus that came before. So every octopus has to figure out the whole world by itself, starting from zero. And they're good at it, weirdly good. Then a year or two later they die and take everything they learned with them. Peter Godfrey-Smith, a philosopher who spent years diving with octopuses for his book Other Minds, points out that they pass almost nothing on to their young. The cleverest animal in the sea wipes its memory clean every generation and starts over. Coulson said it could take hundreds of thousands of years, maybe millions, and he's right that the raw ability is already there. The brain is built, and the body can crack almost any puzzle you hand it. The only thing missing is a second generation that remembers the first.

Mark Cuban says anyone can become a millionaire by following these 4 rules #1: “Find something you can be good at and then be great at it” #2: “You have to know how to sell. Whatever it is you’re good at, somebody’s gonna need that service, someone’s gonna need that product” “Whatever it is that you’re creating but you have to be able to sell because you don’t wanna be in a position where you’re dependent on other people” #3: “Be curious and always be learning because one thing that’s certain about business is that it changes every single day” #4: “When you have that knowledge and you have that ability to sell, when you know that when you walk into a room, you know your stuff better than anybody else in the room, that’s when it’s time to start a company” “Then you can start to control your own destiny”

The real reason Elon Musk wins has nothing to do with intelligence. There are thousands of people smarter than Musk. Better engineers. Better physicists. Better programmers. Better managers. He has said this himself publicly and he means it. His actual edge is something nobody wants to talk about because it can't be taught in a business school or summarized in a framework. He has an abnormally high pain tolerance for chaos. Not physical pain. Psychological pain. The kind of pain that comes from having three companies on the verge of bankruptcy simultaneously while your wife is leaving you and the entire internet is calling you a fraud. The kind of pain that makes normal founders sell, quit, pivot, or break down. Musk doesn't just tolerate that pain. He functions inside it. His decision-making quality doesn't degrade under pressure. It stays constant. Rocket explodes: make calls, fix it, next launch. Stock crashes 40%: ignore it, keep building. Media turns against him: ignore it, keep building. Wife leaves: process it on the factory floor, keep building. His biographer Ashlee Vance described watching him receive devastating news about a rocket failure and a Tesla production crisis within the same hour. Musk processed both in real time, made decisions on both, and went to dinner. Not because he didn't care. Because compartmentalization is his operating system. This is the trait that separates founders who build billion-dollar companies from founders who build hundred-million-dollar companies. Not intelligence. Not vision. Not connections. Pain tolerance for sustained chaos without performance degradation. You can learn strategy. You can hire intelligence. You can build connections. You cannot install a nervous system that doesn't flinch when everything is on fire. The question isn't whether you're smart enough to build something extraordinary. It's whether you can keep functioning when the building is burning and everyone is screaming and the answer is due in 10 minutes. Most people can't. That's not a criticism. It's biology. The few who can end up running the world. Not because they deserve to. Because they're the only ones still standing when everyone else has left the room.

Kevin O'Leary reveals why Elon Musk is "very awkward socially" and will walk away from you mid-conversation Kevin O'Leary: "You don't need friends in business. You need people that respect you. You don't need to make everybody happy because you can't." "You wanna make your friends and family happy, which is probably no more than 15 to 20 people that matter to you in your life. Everybody else is either noise or signal." "The only guy that I've seen that's higher ratio than Steve Jobs was is Elon Musk. 100% signal. Will not waste one nanosecond on noise, which makes him very awkward socially." "He'll walk away from conversation two seconds the minute he knows it's noise. So if you're not contributing towards getting something done, see you later."
