@UnbornTao Nice he even mentioned Leo!

Maybe making it illegal is a stretch but i would say we need major credit and loan protection in place to protect people from poor financial decisions. People need protection that prevents them from entering into debt. The American dream is not working for everyone. The majority live pay check to pay check while others eventually declare bankruptcy, your over focused on the minority that have high paying jobs, no one is giving people a financial education.

Ye I'm not pointing to a conspiracy I'm saying the business model of the banks is to get you to take out a loan. The reason it works out for people is because they are investing in the house market and it worked out for them because it keeps doubling every 10 years. If that was not the case it would be a clear cut terrible financial decision to take out a loan. People can develop skills and work a moderate to high paying job and make a lot of money as long as they don't increase there living expenses as they make more money (what everyone does another trap). There are traps everywhere. If you want to be rich you need assets not liability and you need to maximize income and lower expenses. People do the opposite. Children and a house are liabilities.

Thats the illusion and only true for upper middle class who work there ass off to keep there financials high. It all comes crashing down with any financial set back. They dont own the house they are living in, its a huge liability. The real reason this entire thing has worked for some is because the housing market miraculously keeps going up year after year, its not because taking out loans is a good financial strategy.

Yes they have no business owning homes, its a fake luxury designed to keep you poor and a wage slave. The credit system is designed to milk you. Most people in todays society would be wise to find a group of people they get along with that all work and live in the same place together to minimize expenses as much as possible. Having children is financial suicide, another trap people living in a unrealistic fantasy think they have the random luxury to afford, people cant afford children.

Exactly and you shouldnt have a home and a house if you need take out a loan, getting your own house was never an option to begin with its a foolish decision, a trap set infront of you to keep you poor by banks. Dont be a fool and live beyond your means.
-
Exactly don't buy a car or house when you cant afford it. Ridiculous. Save up, make money, succeed then buy a car and house.

Got to change the addiction to self-development, hit the gym and get addicted to physical strength progress, read a book get addicted to new insights and intelligence so on, practice socializing and get addicted to enhanced social skills. There isn't much else to do about all this but to get addicted to the healthy stuff.

We need to pause and develop AI that can help us understand and develop AI.

Can you provide timestamps of the exact moments, its a long video.

Ah ok all good, so whats the problem? What are your current expensive did you take out a mortgage to buy a house with your wife? If your living expenses are low you can pay off your loan is less then a year if you salary is over 70k. Don't fall for the trap of raising your living expenses as you make more money. Watch video and calculate your liability's, assets, expenses and income. --- BTW 7% interest is EXTREMELY BAD. Pay that off ASAP. That's compound interest, So every year you pay 4k that then contributes to the next years interest so you'll be like 5k on the second year.

Great video, so the solution here is to us AI to help us understand AI so we can develop safe AI. To make magic we need a wand!

@theleelajoker The major lesson this will bring to your life is your going to be more selective next time entering a new relationship, its unrealistic to suddenly break up with her now because your already in the tick of it and attached, so its likely going to play out till the end. This kind of elastic push and pull relationship has a bitter ending where she will likely not acknowledge all the effort you put into keeping it together because she doesn't recognize herself as the drama creator and problem, instead she will blame you in the end and think back at the entire relationships with selective negative memory leaving her with a negative outlook on the whole relationship, a unfair assessment. This is one possibility how it can play out. Another issue with dating bellow ones level is the reason they are attracted to you is not the same reason you are attracted to them. When things come to an end you will still view her from a positive perspective but for her she cant do that, her emotions for you will change and she will just see you as some random guy she doesn't like. To survive she needs to strongly distance herself from you and that means demonizing you.
-
Its unlikely she will change in time to save the relationship, if she's going to grow up it will be after years of failed relationships or she will more likely settle down with someone at her level who doesn't challenge her and doesn't make the invented "mistakes" you are making. Its significantly more enjoyable and 100% worth it to be with some who is closer to your level. It sound to me this is less about SD and more that she is immature. If you often find yourself saying something and she gets triggered by it randomly its not working out. Got to identify signs and not be over tolerant to them. Playing the tolerant role is mature but it actually backfired over months and years because the unforeseen result is the constant exposure to unhealthy patterns of others slowly chips away at your emotional stability and you end up shaping yourself to be more like them. It is not healthy to be exposed to peoples constant drama, it doesn't matter how developed you are. If I learned anything from my experiences with dating bellow my level its that you need to have standards. These standards protect you, your openminded and non-judgemental and tolerant, yes you are and thats great, but you still need standards and cut people out if they create to much drama. Being tolerant does not mean you can handle peoples constant problems and negativity for a life time. Help people as much as you can at a distance, but for intimate relationships and friendships cut out negative and unhealthy people and stick to healthy developed ones.

To loss control of ones mind has got to be pretty dam scary, it would be natural then to question what is real or fake especially if its the first time the ego was no longer in control and had to accept it could not control what it has never failed to control up to that point. I guess its related to the fear of losing control and what many go through when they have bad trips on psychedelics, the ego clench's. It seems your more sensitive now from the spiritual breakthrough you had, so it will take some time to get used to your new powers. Progress! -
Thats true, but i think this says more about a failed implementation and not socialism. We need to motivate people to do the job and we do see this in Holacracy business structures.

Normally when imaging something there is a process to it and your aware of the steps you made to summon the image into existence, before and after. So in this case it looks like fear was the main culprit and maybe not that you couldn't tell it was fake or real? You knew it was fake because you remembered creating it but then spooked your self like a kid scared of the dark after watching a scary movie late at night. A heightened intimacy with ones surroundings and imagination coupled with fear. So like the scary movie trigger it will pass on its own hopefully? -

There is a pattern doe, after eating meat for a year or so it reduces gut bacteria that cause a lot of the stomach issues hes having, so he might be able to get off meat once her starves the bacteria out.
