[The billionaires I know, almost without exception, use hallucinogens on a regular basis] - Tim Ferriss
It's still tripping me out.
I mean, I'm tripping balls here.
Haha.
[Next question in the room].
You know what could help that?
Mushrooms.
[Haha, mushrooms].
Don't you think?
[They're delicious].
Yeah, right?
[Yeah].
They're good for you, too.
[Yep].
All of them.
ALL kinds of 'em.
Hey, I'm Steven and this is Solving The Money Problem.
Tesla shares currently comprise more than 3/4 of my stock portfolio.
I've also taken psychedelics more times than you've had birthdays.
In this video, I'm laying out a few clues as to why I believe Elon Musk is the most
disruptive innovator of our time.
Being incredibly smart, ambitious, driven and having a high pain-threshold isn't enough
to repeatedly do the impossible.
There's something else at play.
For years, I've had my suspicions that Elon Musk uses psychedelics for creative problem
solving.
I have absolutely no evidence--just a hunch.
With that said, let's look at some of the clues.
Maybe you'll draw the same conclusions that I have.
Perhaps not.
Elon Musk has been a regular attendee of the burning man festival since the early 2000s
and has stated that, quote, "Burning Man is Silicon Valley".
If you don't know what happens at Burning Man, well, Google it.
The answer may involve letters such as: LSD, MDMA, DMT, THC.
SolarCity has a Burning Man origin story as well.
And of course, the Musk Foundation donated $10,000 towards the construction of art at
Burning Man festival.
Isn't that interesting?
At the time of the infamous '420 tweet', Musk's girlfriend Grimes, a performer, had a guest
over.
A sociopath named Azealia Banks who's been known to talk shit and lie about people like
it's her job.
Even so, let's see what she had to say to her Instagram followers in the wake of the
infamous tweet.
DMT is the world's most powerful psychedelic.
I've smoked it and been blasted into other dimensions, and I've drank it in an Ayahuasca
brew and has transformative insights.
For most people who've ever smoked DMT, this tweet should be intuitive and self-explanatory.
If not, I'll leave it up to your imagination.
This article claims to have been written by a person who sold psychedelics to Elon Musk.
It may be a compete fabrication--we have no way of knowing.
It should not be trusted as accurate or assumed to be true.
BUT, it exists.
Uh.. psychedelics cowbell road?
What the f**k?
And what do we have here?
A tweet from Elon Musk suggesting that LSD may provide insights.
[They skies are polluted.
The world is addicted to oil.
But we're here to offer a solution.
The CYBERTRUCK.]
Everyone was warned that it was gonna look like it had just driven off a movie set and
it wouldn't be for everybody but, honestly.
This is a REAL product that's coming to market.
What the actual f**k?
Like, who designs this?
I'll tell you who designs this.
Somebody who's tripping balls.
Once again, I've got absolutely no evidence but hey, would it really surprise you if some
psychedelics were involved in this design?
Ultimately, I think that there's only two realistic conclusions that we can draw here.
Either Elon Musk does take psychedelics regularly and use them as creative problem-solving tools
and this is one of the reasons why he's able to innovate so effectively and repeatedly
and consistently.
OR, his neurochemistry is such that he's basically tripping balls 24/7 anyway, but if that was
the case, goodness me.
He's incredibly skilled at keeping it together considering he's started and is running two
multi-billion-dollar-companies as we speak, and doing pretty well at it, too.
Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.
Do you believe that Elon Musk does use these tools for problem solving?
Are you somebody that's used these yourself?
How have they been helpful (nor not so helpful) for you and of course, if there's any ideas
for topics you'd like me to discuss in the future, let me know.
I'm Steven Mark Ryan, I love you all and this is Solving The Money Problem.
