When hiring devs, I see a lot of people with 15 years of experience who barely qualify as mid-level.
Apparently, there are jobs where you learn nothing for decades.
This is peak productivity:
Screen 1) Cursor coding my next SaaS Screen 2) ChatGPT analyzing stocks for me
Building a business and investing at the same time
❇️ You can learn anything. ANYTHING.
The simplest way is to start doing what you want to master.
Want to be kinder? Make more money? Be more charitable? Understand quantum physics?
There’s nothing you can’t learn. So if there’s something you want to achieve, start learning how to do it **now**.

My productivity blueprint 🧠:
+ Get 100% quality sleep + Cold shower in the morning + Coffee (but NEVER when you wake up or within 8 hours of going to bed) + Exercise 3 times a week + Avoid strong stimuli while working (No TikTok or anything like it) + Nicotine in 3mg doses
It’s impossible not to be productive like this.

I’ve always been the youngest person in the office (naturally). My coworkers, who have more experience and have lived in different places, keep telling me I’d love London.
Apparently, it’s super dynamic and competitive professionally, and they think I’d be a perfect fit.
The trap of the century: • They sell you on the idea that “living life to the fullest” means spending 3 months’ salary on a trip to Bali. • But nobody tells you the best experience is not having to ask for time off to live your life.
Real luxury is being in control of your time. Period.
When I was a kid, I thought I’d retire at 67. I’ve been updating my goals.
➝ 📚 Study to retire at 60 ➝ 📈 Start investing to retire at 50 ➝ 🇨🇭 Move to Switzerland to retire at 40 ➝ 💻 Now I want to start a business to retire at 30
🇨🇭 Sites to find software jobs in Switzerland:
- LinkedIn - Indeed - SwissDevJobs - EFinancialCareers (Finance-focused) - Tie Talent - Google Jobs (Most recommended)
These jobs usually pay between €80,000 and €160,000 a year. t.co/FJjoS0mwh0
People talk a lot about pensions, but university has been just as big a scam.
They sold you on the idea that it would solve all your problems, get you a job, and be worth the investment.…
How do you end up working harder than you EVER thought possible?
👉 WORK HARDER
The more you work, the more you realize that what you used to think was working hard doesn’t even come close to what you’re capable of doing.
