Own scalable things.
Get paid by equity, carry, or PnL, not hours.
Stack specific skill + distribution + capital.
Keep fixed costs low. Stay hard to kill.
Use employment to learn and save, not to stay.
Take asymmetric bets: limited downside, uncapped upside.
Avoid status traps, lifestyle inflation, and linear careers.
Compound for a long time.
Winning capitalism = controlling assets and upside that scale faster than your effort.
