My First Million
Why Balance Is the Enemy of Greatness | David Senra

I've gotten so much more value out of listening from old people than I have reading Twitter or whatever.

My First Million
Why Balance Is the Enemy of Greatness | David Senra

It might be because they're willing to tell you the truth.

My First Million

Well, and it's also because once you get past a certain level, and that level honestly is pretty small, but like once you get past a certain level, the analogy that I heard recently was really good.

It was like, I'm the captain of a boat and I'm not trying to fix the engine, but steer the ship.

My First Million
Why Balance Is the Enemy of Greatness | David Senra

And so I don't necessarily need tactics right now.

My First Million
Why Balance Is the Enemy of Greatness | David Senra

I just need, tell me how to live a good life.

My First Million
Why Balance Is the Enemy of Greatness | David Senra

And a good life is a variety of things.

My First Million
Why Balance Is the Enemy of Greatness | David Senra

But I need to know about what the definition of a life worth living is, not how to make money or whatever.

My First Million
Why Balance Is the Enemy of Greatness | David Senra

You see this, if you can't interview them, you at least you can pick up like Felix Dennis's book where how many people are going to be honest about that is a crazy thing to admit to that.

My First Million

I spent 10 million a year for 10 years, a hundred million dollars on prostitutes and coke.

My First Million
Why Balance Is the Enemy of Greatness | David Senra

Dude, when he died, he, uh, his prostitute girlfriend was living with him.

My First Million
Why Balance Is the Enemy of Greatness | David Senra

Again, like I'm sure I can't imagine the, the STDs this guy has or had and doing coke and drinking and nightclubs because they're like nightclubs.

My First Million
Why Balance Is the Enemy of Greatness | David Senra

I think I remember correctly.

My First Million
Why Balance Is the Enemy of Greatness | David Senra

My First Million
Why Balance Is the Enemy of Greatness | David Senra

She's like, you don't want to do that.
