Interesting quote from a game
GTA5 sometimes just popped up some funny yet inspiring quote from the characters inside the virtual world. And I learnt this new phrase today while going on a mission kidnapping some random guy in the great Sunday morning.
"You gotta speculate to accumulate, dawg."
Wow, such a gold. This sentence not only hitting the rhyme but make a big deal of sense to me too. It actually sounds quite alike with another popular saying like "No pain no gain" or "Nothing ventured, nothing gained".
This is basically what I'm believing in at the current stage not having any overwhelming commitment like a house mortgage to bear or a kid to feed. And this is the biggest motive that drives me to hold most of my net worth in the ultra-volatile crypto as well.
Not everyone favors in this way of accumulating.
Go big or go home is just not the thing for most the people. There is a safer and steady way to accumulate. Get a good grade in the school so that you can find a good paying job, save up the cigarette money so that you can afford the Ferrari in 20 years.
Hmmm, I'm just too impatient and aggressive for the slow approach I guess.
How do you accumulate?

Whichever way you accumulate depends on your attitude, but i have to say that what I thought of as soon as I read your post is "You don't know it until you blow it" unlike you, I now have a mortgage and a kid to feed, although that's when the hustle started for me. I do have a steady income, so it's not really about the money but more about expressing yourself and trying stuff. Before I didn't value free time that much, but now I have all sorts of stuff and ideas happening and try to juggle all the stuff, so that I will eventually have some time to work on my side stuff.
Thanks for the sharing buddy. I feel you when you mentioned that you did not value the free time. I was in the exact shoe back then. I even horrified when the unexpected holidays came as I have no idea how to kill the time.
I wish I have 48 hours a day now.
Whoever said video games are a waste of time huh?!
Cool quote, which is very true but something we are not taught. Everyone is schooled to follow the same life blueprint, thus if you ever want to be anything other than an average person you need to do things differently than the rest.
Well, playing video games are just an entertainment to me, exactly the same with watching movie in a cinema or listening to songs.
Well said, you can't the same things as others do and expect a different result.
