You may have heard bitcoin referred to knowledge arbitrage, or time arbitrage, or something along these lines. But what does that mean exactly?
Basically, knowing about Bitcoin gives you an inherent edge over other "market participants", and you can use that gap in knowledge to create a beneficial arbitrage trade for yourself; i.e. stacking sats and saving in the hardest money on earth before others do, creating an economic/energetic/time advantage for your life.
All this to say: What other things in life are a "knowledge arbitrage" trade? What other simple gold mines are out there that we just aren't learning about?

I'm going to interpret this as "things most people don't know, that are incredibly useful to know".
Here's mine - it's often much easier to completely avoid something that's bad for you, than to just be "moderate" with it. For instance - completely avoiding packaged junk food, eating not one bite, is MUCH easier and less stressful than being "moderate" (i.e., eating some here and there, and always thinking about when to stop).
ahaha yep that was pretty much how I was thinking about it
That general principle is true i'd agree, but it's always the first push that's the most difficult, certainly is harder than after youve formed the habit.
Reading the War of Art made this crystal clear to me. And made it much easier to tackle bad habits/form good ones
