Eight Pieces of Advice from Justin Sun to Young People Eight Years Ago: (Don't buy Justin's cryptocurrency, but listen to his advice!) 1. Before 30, don't buy a house, a car, or get married. Invest all your cash flow in self-improvement. 2. Marriage is the most tightly bound yet most dangerous partnership in human history. Most people aren't capable of being a good partner before 30. 3. Investing in yourself isn't about taking a bunch of courses, but about spending 20% of your time trying and failing, and 80% of your time reflecting on your mistakes. 4. Spend your money on information density in first-tier cities, not on mortgage payments in county towns. 5. Treat your social media accounts like equity with unlimited leverage; your followers are your future cash flow. 6. Financial freedom isn't about how much money you have in your account, but about no longer having to sacrifice your emotions, dignity, and attention for money. 7. The sooner you acknowledge your limitations, the faster you'll embark on the road to wealth. Acknowledging your limitations is the first step to change. 8. Compound interest isn't just for money; health, knowledge, and brand also have compounding curves, provided you live long enough. Each point deserves careful consideration, especially looking back now, as many have already been taught a lesson by reality… How many of these did you heed back then? Do you still agree with them all now? 👇 #JustinSun #FinancialFreedom #LifeAdvice

What does it mean that destiny cannot be defied? During the Northern Song Dynasty, there was a man named Shao Kangjie. Mr. Shao was the author of the *Plum Blossom Divination*. One morning, he cast a divination and discovered that a vase in his house would break at noon. He was very curious— How exactly would the vase break? Why would it break? So he spent the entire morning guarding the vase, sitting on the table, staring intently, as if protecting a precious treasure. His wife called him for lunch, but he didn't respond. He was afraid that if he left, the vase would break. At noon, his wife entered the room, and saw him still there, motionless, staring at the vase. Finally, his wife couldn't bear it any longer and angrily said: "You haven't done anything all morning, just staring at this broken vase! You haven't eaten, you haven't done any chores!" With that, she grabbed the vase and slammed it to the ground. *Crack*—It shattered. So we often say: To peer into fate, to try to defy fate, but how can we know that the act of "peeping into fate and then going against it" might itself be a part of fate's predetermined plan?

I changed my door lock, and this is what I found when I searched for locksmith services on Xianyu (a second-hand marketplace). 😢

Have you noticed? Real money-making/career success often happens rather haphazardly. Everything is dictated by fate; human free will is practically nonexistent. Even if you never wanted to be a teacher as a child, you might end up inexplicably picking up a blackboard eraser; you might never have imagined starting a business, yet you're already on that path. Fate is sometimes that inexplicable. It can push you into a position you "should have been" in—a place you never imagined. Take myself for example. I never intended to be a KOL, but now I'm doing quite well. I originally wanted to focus on investing, but now I find myself haphazardly pondering trading every day.

Those destined for great wealth often can't save money before the age of 40. It's not that their fate is bad, but rather that their blessings are too great. Those burdened with superior blessings will inevitably suffer in their early years. The more suffering and hardships they endure, the cleaner their karmic obstacles become. If Heaven lets you experience misfortune, debt, poverty, and being cheated before the age of 40, it's to temper you through adversity, to strengthen your character and resolve. Wealth has energy. Only when your experience, resilience, and mindset are commensurate with it will great wealth arrive peacefully, and only then will you be able to grasp it, hold onto it, and distinguish between what to keep and what to discard. Therefore, don't fear the "emptiness" before 40. What's truly terrifying is being defeated by hardship and then being afraid to move forward. All "late" moments are for a more powerful, accumulated strength to unleash its full potential. You don't need to win many times in life, but you must win that last time.

Do you believe in fate? Younger people probably don't, while older people might. It's said that everyone's fate is predetermined from birth. If that's the case, is there any point in striving and struggling? Currently, I haven't seen anyone who can clearly explain this topic.

Several people have been scammed recently.

I can gain 100+ followers just by posting casually every day, which is pretty good. Quality is king; indiscriminate posting without quality is just a waste of time.

There are only three entry points in trading: buy at support, bet on a breakout, and buy on a pullback. If you don't understand these, trading will be a complete mess for you.

The Cruel Struggle Between Humanity and Nature Nature's way is to reduce the surplus and replenish the deficiency, allowing tigers to reproduce less and rats and rabbits to multiply, maintaining natural balance. Humanity, however, reduces the surplus and benefits the poor, leading to a Matthew effect where the rich get richer and the strong get stronger. In the short term, humanity dominates, and the ruthless are more likely to win. In the long term, nature will eventually correct itself, but this cycle can take generations or even centuries. Fortunately, humanity has morality, laws, and policies to "act on behalf of nature."
