Every idea arrives in a person’s life at a certain stage in the idea’s life. I heard about the cryptocurrency Luna on January 4, 2022. One-hundred days later it crashed. I heard about $LSF in August 2022. It’s fallen fifty percent since then.
Where am I in the investing lifecycle? Late apparently. My awareness negatively correlates with price.
That’s helpful information!
In late 2022 I heard about Ozempic (semaglutide). By February it was on the Honestly podcast with Bari Weiss. Let’s see where this goes.
Tracking ideas is just one meta-idea from Weiss’ work.
Why is this so cheap? Weiss wonders. The average weight loss on Ozempic is 15% of body weight. There must be side effects, right? Remember, we are storytellers. To sell something cheaply, tell customers it’s because we don’t offer any perks.
Too good to be true. A classic red flag, especially to avoid errors of omission. TGTBT will be helpful to AI.
This time is different, only when the rules of the system change. Weight loss is physiological, social, financial, and psychological. If enough of those rules change – for instance, Ozempic is covered by insurance for weight loss, it’s not currently – then things will be different.
Arguing well is difficult. In the podcast, Weiss hosts a trio of experts – who mostly talk past each other. For an organization to find the best path they must argue well and to do that they need to have a strong relationship.
