Rounding up 2023, all of us learnt a ton. I'm sharing this one website which I found extremely interesting. It covers some fundamental mental models which would be helpful to many here.
Looking forward to what other Grapeviners 🍇 were upto this year.
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1lmRCgKnXG6S61b86wGAY6bhsmMwLYQbR ^ Bryan Johnson's "Don't Die" is the read of the year for me. Didn't really read a lot of books but his ideas on psychosomatic interactions really interested me.
Wait this is that longevity guy. Interesting, I will need to finish this ASAP then.
https://www.first1000.co/ How companies acquired their first 1000 users/customers! Basically Growth hacks
Extremely interesting. Just signed up. Good data and growth angle.
http://www.paulgraham.com/think.html How to think for yourself by Paul Graham. Basically a way to look at how you make moves in the world.
Paul Graham is GOATed. I've read this before +1

How the Economic Machine Works? > Such a great Watch. Inspired me to learn more about Finance and manage my own money. Demystifying Finance for me.
Ah, Dalio is really nice. His Principles for the Changing World order is a good read/watch as well.
Got into Competitive Poker this year after playing casually over the last 3 years. Used this to get really f'ing better at my game.

GG, will listen to this ASAP.
Refreshed my undergrad & MBA days finance courses. Was surprised to know how many things I had forgotten since then. Also adding Price Management and Strategic Analysis by Simon Hermann & Pricing Startegy by Andreas Hinterhuber
What would you recommend this for?
