The Almanack of Naval Ravikant

1. IDEA 1

   Seek wealth, not money or status

   Wealth is assets that earn while you sleep. Money is how we transfer it, and status is a zero-sum game. Focus on building wealth.

2. IDEA 2

   Build specific knowledge

   Find knowledge that feels like play to you but looks like work to others. It can't be easily taught, so it can't be easily replaced.

3. IDEA 3

   Use leverage

   Code and media scale without permission; capital and labour require it. Leverage multiplies your judgement.
