Naval-Ravikant

1. Seek wealth, not money or status. Wealth is having assets that earn while you sleep. Money is how we transfer time and wealth. Status is your place in the social hierarchy.

追求財富,而不是金錢或地位。財富是指在你睡覺時仍能爲你賺錢的資産。金錢是我們衡量時間和財富的工具。地位是你在社會等級中的身份象徵。

 

2. Understand that ethical wealth creation is possible. If you secretly despise wealth, it will elude you.

相信光明正大的獲得財富是可能的。如果你內心鄙視財富,財富就會對你避而遠之。

 

3. Ignore people playing status games. They gain status by attacking people playing wealth creation games.

不要太在意那些玩社會地位遊戲的人,他們通過攻擊創造財富的人而獲得自己的「地位」。

 

4.You’re not going to get rich renting out your time. You must own equity — a piece of a business — to gain your financial freedom.

你不能通過出售自己的時間致富。你必須要靠打造商業模式獲得財務自由。

 

5.You will get rich by giving society what it wants but does not yet know how to get. At scale.

獲得財富的方式之一,就是爲社會提供有需求但無從獲得的東西,並且將它規模化。

 

6.Pick an industry where you can play long term games with long term people.

選擇一個能長期發展的行業,與可以長期合作的人共事。

 

7.The Internet has massively broadened the possible space of careers. Most people haven’t figured this out yet.

網路早已大大拓展各種職業發展的空間,但多數人還沒意識到。

 

8.Play iterated games. All the returns in life, whether in wealth, relationships, or knowledge, come from compound interest.

簡單的事情重複做。生活中所有的回報,無論是財富、人際關系,還是知識,都來自複利。

 

9.Pick business partners with high intelligence, energy, and, above all, integrity.

選擇聰明過人、精力充沛的商業夥伴,但更重要的是,他們要正直誠信。

 

10.Don’t partner with cynics and pessimists. Their beliefs are self-fulfilling.

不要跟憤世嫉俗和消極悲觀的人合作。他們的信念會成真。

 

11.Learn to sell. Learn to build. If you can do both, you will be unstoppable.

學會銷售,學會構建,兩技在身,無人可擋。

 

12.Arm yourself with specific knowledge, accountability, and leverage.

用專長、責任感和槓桿效應武裝自己。

 

13.Specific knowledge is knowledge that you cannot be trained for. If society can train you, it can train someone else, and replace you.

專長指的是無法通過訓練獲得的知識。如果社會可以訓練你,那麽社會也可以訓練他人來取代你。

 

14.Specific knowledge is found by pursuing your genuine curiosity and passion rather than whatever is hot right now.

專長來自於跟隨真正的好奇心和熱情,而不是跟隨潮流。

 

15.Building specific knowledge will feel like play to you but will look like work to others.

累積專長的過程,對你而言就像玩耍,對他人來說則很吃力。

 

16.When specific knowledge is taught, it’s through apprenticeships, not schools.

專長的傳授需要通過師徒制的方式完成,而不是通過學校教育完成。

 

17.Specific knowledge is often highly technical or creative. It cannot be outsourced or automated.

專長往往具有高度的技術性或創造性,不能被外包或自動化。

 

18.Embrace accountability, and take business risks under your own name. Society will reward you with responsibility, equity, and leverage.

成爲可信賴的人,用自身名義承擔商業風險。社會也就回報你權利,資產和槓桿。

 

19.The most accountable people have singular, public, and risky brands: Oprah, Trump, Kanye, Elon.

能被信賴的人都具有獨特的,公衆的,並且充滿冒險精神的人格特質,例如歐普拉、川普、坎耶和馬斯克

 

20.“Give me a lever long enough, and a place to stand, and I will move the earth.” — Archimedes

「只要給我一個足夠長的槓桿,一個可以立足的地方,我就能撬動地球。」— 阿基米德

 

21.Fortunes require leverage. Business leverage comes from capital, people, and products with no marginal cost of replication (code and media).

財富來自槓桿操作。商業槓桿來自資本,人力和零邊際成本就能複製的產品,例如代碼和媒體。

勞動力就是讓別人爲你工作,這是最古老、爭奪最激烈的一種槓桿操作。擁有勞動力會讓你的父母驕傲,但不要過度追求。

 

24.Capital and labor are permissioned leverage. Everyone is chasing capital, but someone has to give it to you. Everyone is trying to lead, but someone has to follow you.

資本和勞動力是需要獲得許可才能使用的槓桿。人人都在追逐資本,但得有人願意出資。人人都想領導他人,但得有人願意追隨。

 

25.Code and media are permissionless leverage. They’re the leverage behind the newly rich. You can create software and media that works for you while you sleep.

代碼和媒體是不需要許可就能使用的槓桿,也是近期致富的人背後的槓桿。設計軟體和媒體,讓它們在你睡覺時爲你工作。

 

26.An army of robots is freely available — it’s just packed in data centers for heat and space efficiency. Use it.

雖然你忙的連喝一杯咖啡的時間都沒有,但還是要保持井然有序的日程。

 

34.Set and enforce an aspirational personal hourly rate. If fixing a problem will save less than your hourly rate, ignore it. If outsourcing a task will cost less than your hourly rate, outsource it.

為自己設定一個高標準的時薪,並嚴格執行。如果解決一個問題能節省的成本低於時薪,那就忽略問題;如果外包一項任務的成本低於時薪,那就選擇外包。

 

35.Work as hard as you can. Even though who you work with and what you work on are more important than how hard you work.

盡全力工作,不過和你共事的人以及你的工作內容,比你的努力程度更重要。

 

36.Become the best in the world at what you do. Keep redefining what you do until this is true.

在自己的領域裡做到頂尖。不斷重新定義與調整,直到達到這個目標。

 

37.There are no get rich quick schemes. That’s just someone else getting rich off you.
