My first interview ever lmk what you think

Not true - I don’t hate him in fact I have a fucking poster of the guy lol I just read a few of his books and look at the facts - you’re not just a “regular guy” at that level he says so himself in the Walter Isaacson biography. Being compared to Michael Jordan isn’t an insult - but it’s not a big compliment either - the gift is also a curse.

Agreed - if you read any Elon books that’s a part of it. He always had someone to prove himself to from his dad to the world. It’s almost Michael Jordanesque except business wise.

Just like beavers build dams - we’re working towards it because we’re programmed to. YOU on the other hand don’t have to work on it the rest will and that’s all we need. Humans have built tools since our conception this is just the next natural tool like fire.

How does he remember this? "Occasionally, someone shows pity or commiseration towards me, as if I were in constant, daily suffering from a crippling disability. Nothing could be further from the truth, of course."

I think that’s hard to agree with and we do freelance work all the time.

This is because people go to freelancers for 1. Speed 2. Quality 3. Temporary work

If something is temporary and you want it fast then a majority of the time you’ll want it cheap.

BUT you could find a really small market that wants to go fast and expensive - it’s just much smaller
