If you’ve not done so, & particularly if you’re in a job you want to leave: *Strongly* recommend reading @EricJorgenson’ “The Almanack of Naval Ravikant”, specifically the section on getting rich w/o getting lucky. Best thing written about building wealth in the 21st Century.

Did you read Skyscraper Dreams on my recommendation? The New Kings of New York picks up that story in the 90s & continues it through the Bloomberg Admin, with bigger personalities & bigger deals. Can’t *believe* the risk acceptance on these guys… incredible. https://t.co/Gu6Zzn08Lz
