so I'm 70% there actually
predicting it's going to be easy from now on ... it's like 99.99% of competition is now behind and nearly everyone at this level has been selected for super stupid traits

@skibidist congrats.

I ended up taking a different route (trading) but it feels the same here.

The fact that it's easy doesn't mean one shouldn't be maximally disciplined though. That's a mistake a lot of poker players made in the hayday of online poker. It was so easy to print hundreds of thousands a year that they just did that and called it a day. And of course when Black Friday happened and the money dried up they all regretted not treating poker more seriously and making maybe 5x as much as they did.

@jim not a concern for me I think, need two orders of magnitude more to get to space so will be doing a catch-up for a pretty long time still .. gl with the trading and hope you steer it well through whatever's coming

@skibidist ok maybe we get here this year lol

@jim any updates?

@skibidist unlikely at this point. Jim Fund should get there next year.

@jim only if you do short positions on the ai stocks 😉

@skibidist the bubble has a lot of stretch left

Can't vote without LinkedIn

@RanaG if you had my real name all you would see is my poker winnings, my physiognomy, and a couple ultra-boring philosophy essays. No LinkedIn ATM although I'll have to make one for another market.

bought Ṁ10 YES

I believe in you :)

bought Ṁ5 YES

Anyone betting 'no' on this at 5% is likely to end up with an ear full of cider, @ElliotDavies.

Perhaps link your LinkedIn?

@ElliotDavies I don't have one. Didn't graduate high school, have no other qualifications, have never founded a business of any kind, have never been employed. Am in my early 20s.

bought Ṁ300 NO

@jim Thanks for sharing so candidly. How strong is your motivation to create a business?

@ElliotDavies I am motivated to do cool AI stuff

@jim Nice! One last question, what city are you based at currently?

opened a Ṁ5 YES at 5% order

@ElliotDavies I'm in New Zealand.

@jim Nice, thanks for sharing. The bad news is my base rate odds would be really low. Probably below 1%. The good news is you can update me really quickly with 10 hours or 100 hours of work. Registering a business, finding cofounders, creating some sort of business plan, making a webiste. All of these things - even done on their own - would bump your odds up really quickly
