Cheers, glad you liked it!

You know, as broke kid from the crappy side of London, if you can't get an internship the normal way you might as well master the trading game. That'll get Caleb to notice.

I'm about a third of the way through it, fantastic book. Great recommendation, keep em coming 🤙

Trading is likely a better option. My first internship did not go anywhere. The more I have learned about the traditional career world, it is mostly about connections and being able to talk/know the right people to move up.

Fully agreed. The more I learn of the world, the more I see the value in great interpersonal skills > sheer competence.

And I have terrible interpersonal skills... At least I'm finally working to monetize my website.

Yeah that's good! The internet is a blessing for people like us, who aren't great in person but are still willing to work hard.
