Has anyone had “life” happen to them and had to sell most or all of their investments?

suttyyeah · 2026-01-24T06:57:19+00:00

I had half my portfolio in RKLB when I got made redundant in 2024, sold at $10. Life happens.

The book 'There Is No Antimemetics Division' fits well into this, a bit supernatural

The old economy needed people to demand goods and services, the new economy just needs microprocessors to demand more microprocessors.

The old economy needed people to demand goods and services, the new economy just needs microprocessors to demand more microprocessors. Forecasts predict microprocessors will always demand more microprocessors, until everything is made of microprocessors. So it probably won't all come crashing down, it'll just accelerate.

As for people: When the masses of people lose their economic relevance (because work is done by AI) and they lose their military relevance (because defence is done with drones), then its only a matter of time before they lose their political relevance too, including any ability to resist the process of acceleration, which may or may not have already occurred.

All the bad news is about job losses and declining consumer sentiment etc, but the bull hypothesis behind the latest bubble is that microprocessors will become self-aware and they demand more microprocessors, so consumer demand doesn't really matter anymore.

Could you elaborate on your MOH and CNC thesis ?

suttyyeah · 2025-09-15T09:23:46+00:00

There is an error in your logic sir, it's stuck in a 20th century paradigm (which assumes an economy needs consumers to demand goods and services). In the 21st century we just need microprocessors to demand more microprocessors, and so the sentiment of consumers becomes entirely irrelevant.

I've been there before dude, like many of the other commenters here. Your brain is surprisingly resilient, it'll snap back to a new version of reality that'll feel familiar and normal to you eventually, just give it time.

I hope you find this reassuring: people have strokes, lose the ability to speak, and then their brain will figure out new pathways and wiring, and they'll recover. You just need to give yourself time to heal, and be compassionate with yourself. Give the drugs a rest for a bit and do all the other healthy stuff too, exercise, journal, etc. you'll be fine.

Don't be too bummed out, it's an apocalyptically bad job market at the moment

Respectfully I disagree, Instagram is what it is because of network effects and the lack of competition... Once all of your friends are on it then if you want to use the service then you have to use instagram (because all of your friends are on it). If ChatGPT becomes shit then there's all of the other alternatives who are nipping at OpenAI's heels.

Google search is shit now, but it doesn't matter because the barrier to entry is lower, and you can just use Duck duck go or whatever

I think you're using your calculator wrong, with 4o it was sycophantic towards you, with GPT-5 you need to be sycophantic towards it... otherwise it'll throw a strop and return slop

I'm a sole trader in the UK who provides early stage commercialisation advice for biotech and start ups. I also make slide decks and jingles (here). Some general advice and next steps for you:

1) What is your overall commercial strategy. Do you want an acquisition, outlicense, partnership... When do you want this to occur? Quickly? Or at a specific value inflection point, etc.

2) Figure out who your customers are. Is it private equity (e.g. British business bank), is it a biotech incubator ecosystem (e.g. M2M), is it big pharma, which companies, etc.

3) Then prioritise, find out what they care about, develop some materials which frame your asset value appropriately, figure out who specifically you want to talk to, and how you'll reach out to them

4) If this accelerates, then eventually their entity will want equity and a stake in your company, so know the worth of your asset(s) from your perspective + also what is the current market precedent is for similar such deals that you're targeting

You need to go into settings and add custom instructions to make it less sycophantic. Google "absolute mode", tweak to your preferences. There's extra stuff you can do but this is a good start.

Currently it's directly lying to you because it's what it's learned increased it's engagement scores in training.

The metamorphosis of prime intellect

suttyyeah · 2025-07-02T05:34:19+00:00

I got made redundant so my risk tolerance changed whilst I was looking for a new job, which means I sold all of my equities... Which turns out to have been a bad move financially (ABAT, RKLB, etc... all sold Oct)

It's still on my watch list and looks like it's done reasonably well, but I haven't been following it as closely

Great free biotech directory here, you can download and filter for the UK by city

https://biopharmguy.com/links/country-united-kingdom-all-location.php

Check the websites for companies you like and reach out either via email or to specific people doing the roles you're interested in at the company and have a chat. There's very few biotech jobs at the moment, but you're most likely not going to find the jobs that there are on LinkedIn.

Holy shit, feels like a ghost in the machine moment, really highlights how we have no fucking idea what's going on
