Figuring out who you are (book coming 2021) by kodoninja 3 years ago | Lifestyle |  (#yourself #lifestyle)
000 Figuring out who you are (book coming 2021)
The majority of the population today don’t even know themselves. I bet this sounds strange to you, if it does your probably one of these very people. It’s okay I was one myself; doing things society wants me to do. I was a collection of everyone and everything around me. What they liked I typically liked and this became a plethora of issues as I got older. I didn’t know or understand who I was. I put together a list of 5 things I’ve narrowed down to explain the main complications and causes that arise when you aren’t you. This isn’t to offend anyone but, these traits typically fall under females. They're more agreeable and malleable. They tend to keep the peace and follow the behavior and logic of there surroundings. If you were to look at there friends; 9 out of 10 times they are just like her. Or her desperately trying to be like them. All sharing the same thoughts, beliefs, opinions, and interests. A hive mind unwilling to share their thoughts and opinions. They may even need the opinion of there friends to make a simple decision. They may even dress, look, and act the same. If there are feminist around you, your more likely to be one; Or agree with the beliefs. If you really into fitness, as so are your friends. Into MMA, computers, swimming, and so on your friends are typically the same. Are trying to be the same. You may be unaware that these aren’t your interest. These became your interest because people around you were interested in these things. Males and females unsure of there purpose in life tend to cling to there surroundings; often molded by them. They may pick a career path chosen by their family, friends, emotions, or outside influences. Which may lead to changing there career, or major constantly. Maybe even graduating to end up at a job unrelated to their degree. All to find out later on in life this isn’t what they wanted to do, and settled. 1. You are the product of your environment. If your around gossiping hens, complainers, entitled, and ungrateful individuals; That are unwilling to think for themselves, then you’ll become just like them. Bad neighborhoods and persons who haven’t accomplished anything real in life. You often become like them. See the pattern? Put yourself around the greatest minds, influences, influential books/articles, entrepreneurs, dreamers, square pegs, and visionaries. You’ll become like them. 2. Your “friends” define you. You aren’t an individual, you're a member of a group of individuals that all share the same brain. You don’t decide what to do that weekend your friends do. Your friends are at the center of every decision you make or do. If your friends are party animals you are as well. They like what you like, you like what they like. You agree with whatever they do or say no questions asked. Anything from politics to going out to eat. 3. Your purpose is to fit in. Your life revolves around the opinion of others. You modify and adjust your life, feelings, emotions, beliefs, thoughts, and opinions accordingly to others. Why do you want to be liked by everyone? Why do you want to be another sheep? Just to fit in. Who cares what others think. Who cares about what they want. Stop trying to be like someone else, be yourself. 4. You just want to be apart of something. Most people don’t know who they are, lacking a true purpose in life. Thus they cling to the notion of being apart of something bigger. Having nothing of your own motivates that individual to join a group, club, or movement to feel special, and have meaning in life. You may want to create something of your own to be apart of. Being apart of someone else's goals, dreams, and philosophies will stop your ability to grow. 5. Your concerned about people you don’t know. What people think about you doesn't matter. Why should it matter to you? You are changing who you are just to fit in. To be in the good graces of those who otherwise wouldn’t like you. They only like you if you agree and side with them. Never understood the obsession with wanted to be liked by those you don’t know. Focus on your self. 9 times out of 10 those individuals cannot help you succeed and grow in life. You won't know who they are 5 years from now. Your friends should grow with you and accept you for who you are. The issue Don’t put up with anyone's indoctrination and nonsense. Nobody’s going to respect anyone who just goes along with what everyone does or says. You ever notice at your job your boss or even coworker often tells you what to do? They do this because it’s expected for you to do what you are told. As to that’s the ideology of life and a job. Be like everyone else, and don’t stand out. The ones that are the best sheep and follow directions the best; get rewarded or promoted. Those that don’t often stay in the same place lose their job. Society programs individuals to be like sheep, or else “bad things happen”. Not complying with their standards, get you corrected by threats or even by force. We go along with it. You're bosses don’t respect you. 99.9% of the time they don’t like are give a f$*k about you just like the “friends” you model your life behind. Yet you take orders and follow blindly behind them. You aren’t you, you are what others say you should be. Society loves to beat that into individuals. Misbehave, don’t comply; get corrected. From tv to the law and school system. Everything is created to mold good little people (sheep). IGNORE IT ALL, UNLEARN EVERYTHING. Spend time alone, the true you will come to be. You may finally see you don’t like what you doing. You only do it because others around you do it. It’s fun finding out how many things you don’t actually like, just by detaching. Society, the environment, and your friends are the reasons why you are who you are. My Story, Conclusion I am a product of my environment and past friendships. I can honestly admit that I am a collection of my surroundings and outside influences. Some things have become who I am. This is not always a bad thing. Growing up I came from an aggressive and toxic environment. And for a large portion of my life, I was one. Around a mother who whined and complained unable to sustain her own life; I became the same. Not knowing I was absorbing my surroundings. As I moved towards an academic orientated environment I became a product of that environment. I was surrounded by computers, fitness, entrepreneurship, and anime so I became further indulged. I met friends into fitness, MMA, weight lifting…, and I followed suit. Luckily I was able to think for myself and mold myself to my own will. I unknowingly rejected anything that didn’t feel right. I was punished greatly for not following along and behaving like everyone else. I had a tough time being a sheep. Didn’t want to go to school many times because they were trying to force me to be something unnatural. I just wanted to learn and not be conditioned. My mother hated me because I was difficult and couldn’t behave as society told her I should behave.  As I spent more time alone distancing myself from anyone, everyone, and everything. I found out who I was. Yes, I was a bad kid, but I was also very intelligent, filled with dreams, and refusing to conform to anyone. I lashed out on anyone trying to adjust me. I was bad because I was different, no one knew how to handle me, nothing worked. Thus they tried to punish, group, and label me. I figured out the harsh realities of what I was taught. Rejecting all the remaining feminine behavior that was forced onto me.  Being alone I understood who I was! A rebel; a very aggressive and outspoken lion that loves to take a risk, ruffle feathers, and walk my path. I was always problematic to those who tried to make me something else, even my “friends”. Thus I always had difficulty keeping and making friends. I understood my past mistakes, and who I truly wanted to be and not what society wanted me to be. The job and career environment doesn’t work for me. Too much freedom, personal success, and personal opinions Are what scares others. I wasn’t made to be told what to do, how to behave, and how to think. I was made to succeed. The point being is to figure out who you are. Use the steps I outlined and my personal story as motivation to find out who you are. Distance yourself from society and do what feels right to you. Who knows that 9-5 culture, gossip life, and mundane repetitive living may not be for you; just as I figured out. Take a real hard look at your life. Go through the motions, and see if that's your life, or the life an outside influence or environment created for you. Ask yourself: Who you are?  Who is destined to be? What are your goals in life? Are you accomplishing these goals? Is this your life? Is this the life your family wanted for you? Is this life your friends wanted for you? Are you truly happy? Are you fulfilled in life? Is that person your with who you want? Are you settling? Did your friends pick and approve of who your dating? Do you like your life? If you struggling with any of these questions your more than likely a drone. A product of someone else’s wants, beliefs, dreams, likes, and dislikes. You are no one, a sheep among billions. You don’t stand out. You are your friends, and you are a product of your environment. A useless nobody who can’t even think for themselves. Try being different. Try to go against the status quo. Be someone or something different, or just be you. Be the real you, and NOPE you have no idea who the real you are.  You agree with everything and anything told to you. You just BELIEVE without question, no facts no problem. If your friends are Liberal or vice versa then you blindly go with it, not knowing why. Possessed by emotions and someone else's narrative. Why do you even need to be political? Because society mandates it. Why do you need to work a job? Because society mandates it. Why do you need to get married? Because society mandates it. The list goes on and on. Afraid to be the real you, afraid to speak out, disagree.  No values, no purpose. Please find your purpose in life. Getaway as mentioned and figure everything out. You might be working a job anyone can do with a bit of time, training, and practice. Forgetting you have a degree in something like chemical engineering. A true passion. Something very few can do; something that takes a while to master and comprehend. You have that degree for a reason, right? You tried to find a job, was unsuccessful and now you working a bullshit management job, or even a job that doesn’t even require a degree. For what? Why just give up? Why did you even get that degree in the first place? Eons of questions, and eons of bullshit excuses and beyond responses as to why you are who you are in life... BOOK COMING 2021

The Zero Cash Lifestyle by kodoninja 11 months ago | Money |  (#money #investment #investing)
000 The Zero Cash Lifestyle
The Zero Cash Lifestyle. Is the art of having no money ‘available’ on hand. Does that sound weird? I bet it does, and if it does, I’ll enlighten you. Alright..., that wasn’t a typo! You read that correctly. This is the zero-cash lifestyle. So welcome for this is the current lifestyle of yours truly, “the coding ninja”. So let’s dive in.Before we beganThroughout this post, I’ll be posting receipts to show you I do indeed live this insane lifestyle. This is not for everyone, and I don’t believe everyone should attempt this. Who should attempt this? This is for the risk taker. That person is crazy enough to risk it all, living on the edge every single day… Ok, so let’s be serious, anyone can be a part of this lifestyle. Once I break it all down, we’ll see it’s not all that crazy… Trying this requires the creation of multiple accounts to diversify your money within the same bank account or multiple bank accounts.Currently, my everyday spending account sits at $2 with the investment bank Fidelity. That is always kept under 5K in total. If it goes over,... It is transferred to another Investment bank usually TD Ameritrade (Fidelity is used for everyday simple transactions/holding... If I require a little more cash, I just liquidate//a short wait time of 2 days so it works out) My spending account is linked to my everyday debit card. I try my best to keep this account less than $5 by design, As you’ll see in the image below. If your goal is to be POOR BROKE & HUMBLE… Why are persons insinuating.. That I’m pretending to be rich… WHAT? How did that conclusion occur, I’m trying to be what I am #BROKE I have $2 on hand… ? ? ? Wink* lol pic.twitter.com/c621gSd3o8— Emmanuel Moore (@kodoninja) July 30, 2022 A common question you may ask is: If that account is sitting at less than $5. How can I buy lunch or anything else I may need for that day? And that is why you’ll always need to have your phone on you. When I need to make a purchase larger than $5. I log onto my banking app on my phone and transfer the amount that’s needed to that spending account. Additionally, I don’t carry cash, I avoid it like the plague. If for any reason I do need to make a withdrawal, it’s for that exact purpose and that exact amount. Any leftover cash I deposit or get rid of it. This is done by transferring the needed amount to the spending account and withdrawing at an ATM. The remaining amount if any gets re-deposited, or spent on things at the store I may need or want. Like food or household products soap, etc...The WhyZero cash is a bit misleading. Thus it’s a bit of a yes, you have no cash (broke). And yes you do have money (still broke). And no you're not broke. Confusing but did you catch it? Cash/Money. When I say cash I’m referring to cash on hand. Direct money you have access to for spending. These are the funds that have been liquidated or have yet to go liquid. For me, this is money I keep in another checking account used for spending. There’s also another checking account for bills. This account is also used for direct deposits. So let’s break down the three accounts you’ll ever use. Checking Account 1: For spending [Transfer Account] Checking Account 2: For Bills [Direct-Deposit Account] Checking Account 3: For Trading/Investing I currently do have other accounts listed under this bank account with “Fidelity” never exceeding 5k (as stated above). And a business investing/broker adjacent to these accounts (separate login etc// just like with any other business account w/ any bank.. These accounts are locked (frozen) except for one w/ Fidelity). However, we’ll be focusing on the 3 personal accounts listed above. We touched on the account labeled ‘Checking Account 1’ in the earlier paragraphs. This is your spending money for everyday items. This account is typically kept at $5 or less.Now onto your account labeled bills. This is the most important account you have. Your paychecks, from your career(s)/ job(s) royalties, or any forms of payment will all be deposited into this account. Your bills will be deducted, and or paid from this account. Or that exact amount is transferred to your spending account linked to your debit card so you may make that payment.A recommended tip for security is that you should not have a debit card linked to this account for this will be a bulk account. Meaning a large sum of money can be found in this account via deposits from your sources of income until it is transferred to your third account for immediate investment. As another note, I have a second card linked to my 3rd account that usually has a zero balance or a few hundred until more money is liquidated. This is the bulk account that has the most but doesn’t. Mainly because it is all liquid.A method of transport will look something like this: Money is deposited into your Bill account Bills are taken out from this account, or transferred to spend to make that transaction. 95% of the remaining money after bills is transferred from your bill account to your investing trading account (account 3) Money deposited into your trading/investing is immediately used to purchase stock, bonds, crypto, etc. 98% of the money in this account should be liquid. 5% of the remaining money is kept in your bill account until it’s needed for expenses Money is transferred to your spending account on a needed basis; from your bill account. At this point, your bill account should be left with exactly what is needed to savvy your bills. Once your bills are extracted for that month or bi-weekly period. Follow the steps for the method of transport to invest the remaining money. Your spending account should be left with as close to $0 as possible. Keep this in mind before you transfer the remaining money from your bill account over to your investment account. Calculate what you’ll need for groceries, fast food, gas (transportation), amazon, etc. Once your money is invested ‘liquid’ you’ll have to wait a few days to liquidate money for what you’ll need or want to buy.Rinse & Repeat (monthly or bi-weekly or weekly or possibly daily)We all don’t make the same amount, nor do we have the same amount due in bills and expenses. Thus, this is where your custom calculation is created. Let me also state make sure you're making money. Now, what do I mean by this? After your bills & expenses are deducted this is the money left over... Now if this amount is hardly anything a few things need to change. You can either  Make more money Get a second full-time or part-time job Get a higher-paying job Pick up side gigs  Learn a skill or trade to net you additional income Software development App/Web development Freelance / Remote position Trade, Invest Start an online store (reselling, drop-shipping) Start doing YouTube, Twitch, etc. Eliminate expenses Find a cheaper place to live Get a roommate Move in with family Less to no fast food Cut back on subscriptions Stop spending or overspending … If it's something you can live without eliminating it. For the deposit accounts, I recommend having investment banks such as TD Ameritrade, Fidelity, JP Morgan, E-Trade, Vanguard, and so on. These have been around for some time there reliable and trustworthy. I'll list links to my top five choices below.FidelityTD AmeritradeInteractive BrokersE-TradeVanguardTo state again these are the only three accounts that matter in the zero cash lifestyle. Is that it? No. Now we know what to do with our cash from our deposits etc. Let’s take a deeper look at what happens to the money in your third account for trading and investing. If you remembered this is referred to as ‘Money’ Completely liquid money you will not have access to. These are your actual assets, all of your holdings. All of your money is being held in various investment banks and apps. If it can hold and multiply your money you keep it there. Think of liquid as your money is no longer in physical form. It's water, more water can be added and water can be taken away. You can start with a small glass and end up with a few gallons to an entire ocean full. Your money can be larger one day and less another day due to the ever-changing stock markets and your choice of investments.Diversifying is key thus currently I have quite a few apps and platforms that I use in addition to the big 5 mentioned above. Now before we dive into what you may want to be investing in. Let’s take a look at a few other supporting platforms you may want to try Platforms Account Minimum Fees Rating Fidelity $0 $0 100/100 Vanguard TD Amararade $0 $0 90/100 E-Trade $0 $0 90/100 Webull $0 $0 100/100 Moomoo $0 $0 80/100 Merrill Edge $0 $0 90/100 SoFi $0 $0 90/100 Ally Invest $0 $0 90/100 J.P. Morgan Self-Directed Investing  $0 $0 85/100 Acorns $0 $3 -$5 60/100 M1 Finance  $0 95/100 Betterment $0 Robinhood Twine The list can go on and on but for the sake of sanity, we’ll stop there. If you’ve found more that’s great be sure to add them to the list. These online brokerage platforms and non-brick-and-mortar firms are great ways to multiply your money. Some offer Robo advisor services like SoFi and Wealthfront, Betterment, Acorns, Fidelity, E-Trade, and so on. Below you’ll find linked images to more options in detail.Each one of these platforms is all different but offers essentially the same services. Research a bit on all of them. Try them out and see which ones work for you. I have so many of these accounts I’ve lost track. These are what I call supplemental accounts. So I try not to have more than a few hundred to several thousand on these platforms. Your opinion may differ I have friends who have over a hundred thousand on a Robinhood account. It’s all up to you.My strategy is 3-5 bulk platforms, then have everything else supplemental. See what works for you. Trying several accounts may need the help of additional money so be sure to learn how to make more money. I’ll also note platforms like Acorns, and Worthy for example invest by rounding up to the nearest dollar. They take the rounded-up money and invest it for you.Now that’s out of the way let’s do some investing in your trading/investing account(s). At this point, you should have a few hundred in this account to get started. If starting. Meaning your account sits below $25,000 you’ll be doing mostly swing trading and investing. To day-trade, this can only happen 3 times a day due to the PDT (pattern day trader rule). That is if you’re in the USA.The rule of thumb is to implement some buy-and-hold strategies. Buy low exit high on cash and avoid margin if you can. To be safe I recommend buying blue chip stocks like Apple, Tesla, and Amazon in the beginning. These are extremely large companies that will always have a place in the markets. Meaning there’s so much volume, shares, float, and market capital that these stocks will almost always stay fluid and you’ll safely enter and exit trades, break-even is and profit greatly. A lot of these stocks are so large they hardly move so your money will likely remain the same while you collect dividends if that company offers them. When going into a trade I recommend that you pick one with a lot of volume and shares outstanding, (float). This ensures you can enter and exit trades freely. Pattern trading with the usage of candle stick charting is a great rule of thumb. They provide the most information to see when to enter trades based on various patterns, and signals that can be found on most broker platforms. These patterns can be found throughout the entire stock life span to help determine when you may profit on your return. And revisit previous patterns that may repeat based on past price actions. I am a swing trader who looks at charting as if I was day trading to get a proper grasp on the stock patterns and action. A good practice will be to try day trading to get acclimated to candle sticks (3 times daily: 1 entry, 1 exit, and 1 other entry) until your account reaches 25k as I did when the PDR applied. I’ll go into more detail in another article as all of these cannot be contained in this one article. Below I'll list a few of the many areas to invest and trade your money. You can research further and find more information on kodoninja.com. But for now, let’s take a look at one of these. Stocks Bonds ETF’s  Crypto  NFT’s Commodities  Hedge Funds Stocks - If you're a slightly impatient investor like me, stocks will be your best friend. A pro and a con to stock trading are that they move fast. One moment they're up, one moment they're down. For day trades, this is the greatest benefit of trading stocks. Going heavy on a trade of a few hundred to a few thousand shares on a stock trading at $13 or $5 on a .20 cent increase can net you a profit over a few hundred to a few thousand depending on how much you entered the trade with.I’m a big proponent of swing trading going into trades and exiting a day to a few days later to profit. Again, depending on how much I entered the trade determines the amount of profit netted on that trade.Example of a monthly swing trade from MoomooLet’s say we went into the trade with $2,000 worth of shares let’s see how much money we made from that single trade.We entered the trade on: 3/14/2022 $34.879 (57 shares came out to $1,988.103)We exited the trade on: 4/18/2022 $48.461 (57 shares came out to $2,762.277)($2,762.277 - $1,988.103) = $774.147With our $1,988.103 investment in Twitter stock trading at $34.9, we made $774.15, once we exited the trade at $48.5. This is an example but not something that’ll happen regularly. The stock increased by $13. It may not seem like much, but when you're going into a trade with a few thousand, it packs a punch. A jump like this is gold to any type of trader. If you’re lucky you may find trades that jump like this one within a day or two. Those are the trends I’m looking for. But making nearly $800 in a month on a single swing trade is pretty good. But not nearly as good as making that type of return a day on a single trade.As you can see swing trading is very lucrative. However, to make this much notice quite a bit of money needs to be tied up to make some serious profit. $2K is a lot of money to be gambling with. The trade may not go the way you want, and you may be stuck in that trade for days to weeks, to just break even… In this example, this trade took over a month. If an emergency happens getting that money out may result in a loss of money. It’s very possible to make these types of gains in a day or week. It all depends on the price movement and volume propelling it. A .70 cent increase on a $5,000 investment on a penny stock trading at .20 cents can more than double your money.I like the risk vs reward ratio. Swing trading for me has been extremely profitable and has helped to grow my money quite a bit. Since I’m living the zero cash lifestyle. This money doesn’t count. This goes for my everyday banking to my various investment accounts developed over the years. My rule of thumb is once the money is invested it cannot and shall not be liquidated. (except Fidelity) If I have $2 in my spending account and $80 in the billing account that’s what I have to my name as far as I see it. Thus, you’ll have no money until it’s liquidated and transferred for your availability. PRO’s Your money can be compounded on interest, gaining quarterly/yearly dividends. Any investments can be sold for profit and reinvested for instance the $774.15 made from that monthly swing trade can be used to go into another well-researched trade. How you choose to do it and the amount is completely up to you. Regardless of the trade, you are building on that overall account value.Compounded interest gets complex to click the image below to learn more about the link posting 1 year compounded: $5,000 × (1 + (.02 / 1)1×1 = $5,010<a href=”https://www.bankrate.com/banking/what-is-compound-interest/”><img></a>The difference in share price increased by 13.6 ($48.461 - $34.879 = $13.582)Linked below in the example image is a pretty good stock trading calculator I’ve come to love. So far they seem pretty accurate. Thus this is my go-to website.ConclusionRegardless diversify your money as much as possible. Invest in a bit of everything, and keep throwing money into the market regardless of if we’re in a bull or bear market. Add to your investment portfolio(s) every other week or whenever you have available cash. I also get life happens; Investing weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly may not be feasible for everyone.Since you aren’t touching these accounts, there compounding, gaining interest, collecting dividends, and so on. Touching back on life, you may have emergencies that require the need for money. Since your two cash accounts have their purposes. They are always running on E. Thus, you’ll feel the urge to liquidate your assets. If it’s life-threatening, prohibits you from getting to work, health concern, family emergency, or anything extreme goes for it… Just try to rebuild those accounts when applicable. Building a rainy-day fund may also be beneficial however I have rainy investment accounts. I don’t believe in keeping large amounts in banks. For your losing money on inflation and missing out on crypto spikes, stock fluctuations, and higher yield return through various other methods available. Keeping your money liquid puts you in an otherwise gaining position.We (you and I) keep our money invested because it is useless keeping money in ordinary bank accounts. Inflation and god-awful interest rates. If you had 60k sitting in your checking account it’ll be roughly the same 20 years later. It’ll be worth less with inflation. You lose money by keeping it in banks. All banks are going to do is take your money and invest it for their gain while only returning interest on your initial amount mostly never exceeding 0.01%. All profits made from investing your money are their gain, and you never reap the rewards. Some CDs offer higher interest, and ROI, but on the caveat that you only have access to that account a few times a year. 401k Roth IRA, Seth IRA, and so on can be good options they can be used as assets for investment properties. There is no penalty for investing in a rental property or investing in those accounts just as you would your investment accounts.A cool thing about some 401k’s is that if your job matches what you put in. That’s less initial money needed for investing. They’d often double your input. You can invest and trade the matched 401k, reinvesting those profits. Then take that money for a down payment to invest in rental properties or property of your own (15/30-year fixed loan) if you see fit. Implement the BRRR (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat) method, then that’s another sick cash flow income stream.I’ll end it here, for there are limitless avenues to invest and reinvest your money.

Why being boring isn’t so bad by kodoninja 6 months ago | Living |  (#lifestyle #living #boring #looser #code )
000 Why being boring isn’t so bad
I may be the most boring person I know, and this may not be a bad thing. boring. That’s a rather grim word. Seems kinda sad. Webster classifies boring as “causing weariness and restlessness through lack of interest:  causing boredom”. After reading that definition you can argue I’m quite the contrary. But I can assure you I am indeed boring. At least I can appear boring to most people looking at me. So who am I? Im nobody special. I continue to say this no matter what I accomplish in life. Well okay. So who are you? What are the things that make you, you? Since you are here I’ll start with myself. I’ll list the 5 main things about myself. You do the same. Software Engineer/ Developer Bibliophile/ Writer Movie/ Anime enthusiast Content Creator So I was gonna list 5 but all I can come up with was 4. I’m sure theirs more but these are the main things. A few other personality traits of a typical boring person are that I am: Quiet / Recluse / distant I hardly see sunlight I stay to myself/ lone-wolf Enigma to the highest power. Unrelatable That’s it. See? Now this is boring. Wouldn’t you say? For the very few persons on earth who actually “know” me. Yeah, I’m talking to you 4 or so people. Hey, how's it going? Anyway… They’d probably go on and on about the things I’ve done, can do, and some other stuff… But they’d also argue in a way I can be seen as boring, but more of an enigma as mentioned in #4. I'd agree. The Point The major grasp here is that some people looking in, like the ones who know you, don’t know you. And those that think they know you, will all have different grasp and interpretations of who they believe you are. I mean if you never speak people are only left with what they can see from you. This goes for everyone. Ask a few people, anyone what they think about you, or what they know. You’ll get some pretty interesting answers. You may appear (boring, great, amazing, or dumb), but the list of answers can be pretty radical. I seem as stupid to many but also the opposite. I’m below average in my opinion… no one asked, okay let’s continue. The larger picture So enough about me. Let me tell you how being boring may not be so bad 😜. One of which was just stated. As in you are you. You can appear as many things to many people. Get this If you picture a boring person in your head the results will differ from person to person. Some qualities of a boring person may be (laziness, dullness, lackluster, uninteresting,..) You may picture a person who doesn’t get out very much, on the couch, watching tv all day,… Some may see a person who writes code as boring. That goes for building equipment/ computers, writing, reading, walking, fishing, card collecting, chess playing… That can go on and on… To some people clubbing, meeting people, hanging out, talking, and watching sports isn’t boring. If you're part of an anime club. You watch anime, do cosplay, and so on… Then all of you are not boring. Because this is interesting to all of you. All of you are the coolest people on the planet. The same goes for any topic or activity. No matter how weird or obscure it may seem to others. Since I’m boring, or maybe not boring. Or shall I say: Since I know almost no one, have very few friends, loner,... Well depends on how you look at it. I have more time ⌛, or shall I say I have more focus on things that matter to me. Like coding, reading, writing, creating, gaming, building computers, “working out”, “training”,… and so on Conclusion 1 Boring people rule the world. Bill Gates was a “boring” engineer recluse building Microsoft. Steve Wozniak built the apple computer... The traits of this guy can be seen as boring. Elon Musk dedicated his world to writing code. Completely engulfed in his work as he slept on his office floor building what we know today as PayPal. Mark Zuckerberg the boring, recluse, arrogant psychology major who many HATED for no reason build a website… I think it's called Facebook. Hell people still hate this guy, I don’t. Even though I met him once when my friend sold his house to him. Mark told him I’m better than you... Well... hahaha… Anyway... The 4chan creator, Twitter creator, myspace creator, the person who built this and that… All from boring people... The creator of your favorite show, game, or whatever, 9 times out of 10 all came from a boring recluse person. There are some exceptions like “Howard Hughes” YouTubers But… well you get it. Conclusion 2 If you're boring, be boring make something out of it. Don’t be like the types listed in other articles. Make something out of your gift of being boring. Yes, you heard that right. Being boring is a gift. Interesting people have their benefits and quirks but the power of boring people can change the landscape of the world. Just look at all the things Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Bill Gates have accomplished… In addition, add some cool personality traits. Most people go off of how they feel around you. If it's fear or inadequacy, you can enact rage and anger. Like Mark… If they can relate, kindness, you get it. These types aren’t typically seen as boring. Communicate, and have a sense of relatability “the quality of being easy to understand or feel sympathy for “: Cambridge English Dictionary … Today Elon Musk can be seen as cool 😎, by those who are completely adjacent to tech, rocket science, and computer science. How can people relate to this guy??? He’s not boring. My god he puts rockets in space. You take another person who is in techs, rocket science, or computer science, like a typical NASA engineer ???, nerd, or little ol' me… Well there lame and boring to some. Elon takes boring things and he's a monolith... Granted well you get the idea. … Hell! You can be a chess player, gamer, streamer, or pokemon master, and still be seen as cool by those that don’t do these things. Just by having some good personality traits. Happy National Pokémon Day!!! from your favorite trainers/gym leaders??? @snitchery @ThatFoxxGirl3 @missbrisolo ?: @BenjaminFarren pic.twitter.com/2D0hgKT5kq— Lea Martinez (@officialslayeas) February 27, 2023 I’m teaching myself how to communicate with people. I've always sucked at it... Again, the few who know me may disagree… It's all perspective… Here is a book i will be reading (Pic: ShashiBellamkonda/Flickr/CC BY 2.0). https://medium.com/publishous/how-to-win-friends-influence-people-decoded-d5c00512c499 Boring people can be awesome… Don’t let your boring unrelatable traits, skills, or awkward quirks, be a limit. Be a cool cosplayer or webcam actress… Boring can make you something great like those that I mentioned. Focus on the coolness of your boring hobbies and skills. Become the next loved and respected nob polisher, hacky sack champion. Or maybe developer if that's your thing. You are amazing no matter what you do, or who you are.

“The digital nomad lifestyle” e-Book coming ASAP

SNIPPET:: "The Nomad Lifestyle"... I'm the founder of the software company Aviyon. I lived in various types of houses, & apartments, over the past few years. By doing so I’ve hopped from place to place, from town to city to state. I Utilize libraries for work, hotels, motels, Airbnb, hostels, and friend's places, hell majority of the time I choose to sleep in my car. 2-4 hours max! It’s FREE it saves money and allows me to reinvest that money into other things instead of paying rent. There are thousands of others on YouTube living the same life. After sleep I’m off to get things done, gym, work... I rarely sleep so I’m able to get a lot more accomplished. I’m a believer that sleep is the cousin of death. So I prefer to remain awake improving myself. I'm a workaholic living a simple life…. However… I’ll be stopping soon, getting a place again to launch kodoninja's YouTube once this platform is mostly complete.

 I've been posting my trades & code since 2015... The irony is that I’ve been on a journey to own nothing since 2020. I don’t want to own my place, car, equipment, NOTHING directly. I don’t even want to have money, keeping it all liquid. I want to live limitless on the GO, with a central hub to call home... I've been putting every penny I've made into investment accounts since 2019. My goal isn't to be rich, or convincing people I'm rich who cares. It's to own nothing but my companies, & liquid funds. But that's beyond the point. I just want to share my coding trading, investing, etc. lifestyle, and grow the community. I aim to recruit people similar who are way better at this to my platform

 Now if all the software I create (Aviyon, Kodoninja...) happens to net me a high net worth, then cool. The company is wealthy not me (I'll explain later). I don't spend much money anyhow, nor do I brag. I'm humble, frugal, cheap, a wolf in sheep's clothing just trying to remain invisible. But somehow the guy who wants to own nothing, invest, trade, train, workout, does MMA, create the #kodoverse, and build #kodoninja creates so much HATE. The irony is there are THOUSANDS of rich, rich YouTubers doing the same thing #vanlife #carlife... Their lack of knowledge confuses my ambitions and lifestyle...

An odd discussion has been happening… I AM NOT RICH. I am not claiming to be, nor will I ever… I DO NOT PAY MYSELF… I work 1 warehouse job, and currently, should be around 4k monthly with overtime. Early next year I’ll pay myself a salary of $1,000/m MAX from kodoninja.com as an employee. This is regardless of what the platform makes in revenue. The remaining revenue will be reinvested in itself. The kodoverse platforms & YouTube.

My expenses are kept so low that I can reinvest more money. For now $4k/m works, I can afford the things I want, including the NEW studio and so on. This in turn allows me to reinvest all business revenue & royalties… NOTE: after bills,…. All money will be traded/invested attempting to double the monthly income trading…

I recently quit my second job… which would have been around 7-8k a month. This all worked out… Once I get the NEW Seattle studio I can freelance during the day, and trade/invest my various accounts during market hours… Replacing the revenue from that job shouldn’t be difficult…

Job 2 is still up for discussion after months into the New studio coming 10/2022 ?? Time for development, and transportation will be the key siding factor… Going car-less after the studio. full public transportation, bikes/e-bikes, Lyft & Uber… My legacy is at stake as I’m attempting to accomplish what less than 1% have managed to do… Thus I need time… The extra money is great once I get the studio,… Is it worth it? The income stream would be replaced with something more manageable. Allowing me the flexibility and time to get shit done…. We’ll see…Furthermore, I can build out my vision for kodoninja & the kodoverse everything from Crypto, and web apps to VR. Building the platforms more complex stable and simple. The absence of Job 1 leaves more time to build out the 7+ full-stack platforms from “The ‘Aviyon’ Corporation” Hiring 1099 employees and friends in the FAANG Industry preparing to IPO… Working at META is still a prospect of mine, As I’m incorporating All of their languages into kodoninja. And aspects into the remaining kodoverse.

I just recently moved to Washington, after moving the remaining of what I own into storage. Weeks in I'll crash on my friend's/Ex’s couch when I get the chance… Although I rarely if ever reach out… The main method is to stay in my car in between stays and hotels... It’s FREE ??, I’m cheap and poor so it all works out lol… Not paying myself & putting money into untouchable accounts have been a staple of mine for years.

Until recently this Method has been working… Mistakes were made, overinvested, and money was mismanaged, and more on this coming YouTube.

Major adjustments to “The Zero Cash Lifestyle” are in progress… I'll continue to car/hotel months longer, Investing very aggressively ALL IN. I mean AAAALLLL IIINNN HAHAHA ?? as I save on rent money… That’s an extra 2k a month being reinvested … I’ve got nothing to hide ALL PUBLIC on Kodoninja.com for some time now… Coming 9/1/2022 all PERSONAL non-business income will be made public on kodoninja. com/trade.php. BUSINESS income will feature on kodotrading. com COMING 2023I'll U-Haul everything else down. After I find the new studio. I’m hoping I can find a girlfriend, another developer, or YouTuber as a roommate. Always looking to SAVE “INVEST” MONEY anyway I can… Otherwise, I'll live alone, using the space as an office studio.Furthermore… I trade, I invest everything I earn. As you’ll see publicly. I founded Aviyon “The Aviyon Corporation”. Which I intend to take public by 2024; After all the work is live and flooded with users. I will file for an asset holding company “Moore Capital Investments” by late 2022 or early 2023. Which I will buy rental properties under this LLC or S-Corp. All while building the entire kodoverse…

The aim is to share my entrepreneurial journey with whoever may find it interesting... This isn’t boasting of my accomplishments, but a lens into my lifestyle… I love all, I have no enemies, and I want everyone to succeed. The work is still being developed, I’m just getting started in life. Much much more is planned and on the way.
