In this episode (the second of two) Dave tells:

* How to finish first, first you must finish

* How being right can be uncomfortable 

* How important it is to know yourself.

We also discussed:

* How crypto is a con that works if everybody believes, and how that is also true for gold and fiat currency

* How negative real interest rates means we no longer have a yardstick of risk-free return, but rather return-free risk

* How regulation is a massive tax on the investment industry, which delivers no safety benefit for the end-investors.
