you get to kind of communicate with different people across the spectrum of all of your interests. And you get some status in those subcultures if you're in the top 1%. So I think it is relatively easy, and this is what I wrote the book Skip the Line about, is that it's not like cheating, but there are learning techniques you can use to be in the top 1%. Let's say you're interested in cooking.
Arguably, I'm in the top 1 million of those or even better. But I consider myself not so good because looking at it from my perspective, there's a lot of people I know who are much better. Same things with business, with investing, with everything I've pursued. But I do think it's relatively easy to get into the top 1% of what you pursue. And there's a lot of benefits to that.

To be in the top 1% of cooking, I mean, a billion people around the world or more know how to cook. To be in the top 1% means to be in the top 10 million of those. That's very easy to do.
