Welcome to the After Hours podcast, hosted by Harry Haas and James Friedlender, presented by My Investing Club. What's going on guys, welcome back to another episode of the After Hours podcast. Today we have a special guest, Sam, who's a member at MIC and he's argued, I think he's one of the youngest members other than his tab group. So it's cool to have him on and we've been seeing some cool consistency and growth from him. So thank you for coming on, Sam. Absolutely. Yeah, thanks for having me. It's a pleasure. Of course, man. Of course, we've had Xander's your tab, right? Yeah, Xander's the main one. So we had Xander on a previous episode. So if you haven't checked that one out, but I saw, I guess we'll get into it. So I guess, Sam, how did you kind of get into this? How did you start trading and how did you kind of get into MIC eventually? Yeah, so trading was actually, it was really random for me. I've always been like very entrepreneurial. So I've always been interested in investing in the stock market. Like as soon as I turned 18, I had opened up a Roth IRA, like all that type of stuff. But I was at my job one day and I paint houses and I was just sitting there and I got on the job and I was like, all right, I want to do something to do with my time. So I literally went on Apple Podcasts and I searched in the word stocks. That's all I searched in, just to find some podcasts. And of course, Tim Sykes pulled up, right? And that's the name that comes up with everything. So yeah, I just, I watched one video, or one podcast on just day trading penny stocks. And within two weeks, I'd never looked back. And that was in late January of 2021. So it's been almost a year. Yeah, yeah, I was 18. So I was in Tim's room for about four months, something like that. And I really respect him. I was very thankful for that time there. He's really good at keeping you motivated, keeping you kind of in the things. But after a while, I just realized that I wasn't really learning a process that I could come to the market and trade with every day. It's a really classic story. I just didn't have a process that I felt like I could repeat every single day. And that's when Xander and I, we just started hearing about MIC and the Be The Trader podcast. Do you guys know each other in real life? Or did you guys meet? No, we met each other on Twitter through some of Tim's comments.  Yeah, we just realized we were both young and we were both working every single day all day. And so- I love that, dude. I love that, I didn't know that. Yeah, so we just, he was the one who first reached out and then we just started talking and then we formed this Next Gen Traders group which is like seven of us now, so.  I love it. Yeah, yeah. So yeah, we just heard about MIC and we decided to give it one month just to try because we were doing OTCs on the long side before MIC and they were like, we'll do it one month. We don't wanna mess up what we've done. We'll just give it one month and we'll see how it feels to watch some videos. It was about a week and we were no longer watching the OTC market. Yeah. But one week and we were nothing but MIC videos listed market and have not- Were you having success before that? Like were you finding some like short-term success with OTCs or was it just, I know that market stuff. Like I never personally got into it. I just skipped that whole phase. Like I just, I found small caps first. Yeah. And I know like Isaac Jack and like there's some amazing OTC traders out there. But were you finding success with that and like, how was that going? Yeah, not really, statistically we weren't. And to be fair, when we were really kind of getting our groove with it, the market shifted and it wasn't very good for the OTC market.  My first trade ever was a first green day swing and I made like, you know, 150 bucks.  And then it was just like two wins or two losses and one win and then three losses and one win. So it was definitely not consistency. Yeah. Yeah, okay. So then you found MIC, you guys were there. What did you like about it initially when you got in? Like what was like the biggest difference between that and like previous rooms you've kind of seen and like what kind of got you? Cause you're still here and it's been obviously now over a year. So what kind of switched that for you? So it's really simple. The thing that hooked us initially was the education. With other videos that we'd seen, other DVDs we'd watched, it was repeating the same thing, very basic level. Half of the video was filled with going through Twitter. The other half of the video was talking about students. And so when we came to MIC and we started going through the videos, we were like, oh, we're actually learning something. We're actually learning what does this mean and what does that mean and how to do this. And when you see this respond this way, right? So it's like, we were actually getting real education. We could watch video after video and we were learning new stuff. What's cool? So now like, cause where you're at now, like you're starting to find some pretty good consistency. Like I see you posting your charts a lot. I feel like you and Xander have really grown a lot and I see it. So what kind of made that fundamental shift for you? Like cause it's, I feel like that started, I don't want to say too recently, but it was in the past like a couple of months here. What changed for you? What brought you to this point of like going from inconsistent, like not really having your niche in process to where you're at right now. Yeah, that's a good question. There's so many factors. It's hard to say this and this. I just read a blog post and it was about exploration and then exploitation. And it's about how to find consistency in your trading. I posted the blog yesterday, but they talk about how like for a while before a big breakthrough comes, you have to be exploring. You've got to try all these different variables and whatnot before you can exploit it and actually find consistency. And so I'd say the first couple of months in MIC, that's what was happening.  And then it was the 1st of October. I can remember this like without a doubt. It was the 1st of October and everything just started to click with us as far as the MIC process.  Or, oh wait, I know what this means. Or, okay, this, I'm supposed to respond this way, right? And so that clicked for us about at the beginning of October and then all of a sudden we just started to figure out what our edge was, which for, we're both a little bit different, but for me, it's outer lines, first resistance or on really broken down charts when it's gotta get really extended to get up to VWAP. I love a shorty VWAP on those. Going into October, we just started to click and we narrowed down what we were focusing on. Yeah, cause like I'm obviously in weekend mentoring, so like I see a ton of your charts all the time. And I also wanted to say, I know that you've been going through a lot of stuff with your dad passing recently and there's been a ton of challenges with that. So I just wanted to say that, I'm sorry to hear that. And whatever you're going through, like I'm always here for your bro. But yeah, I'd say that you kind of brought something up recently that tweaked my interest as well. And that was more so the, just like MIC and being advanced, like you never really think about how advanced MIC is until you're in other rooms. And random people are asking like what's VWAP or what's support and resistance, right? And I think just like moving on, you kind of talked about consistency and like what kind of like took you to get over that kind of like hump. And I guess my question more so for you would be for anyone who's kind of newer or who's kind of bent in the same position as you, what are steps that you would take to kind of, get someone over the hump for consistency or kind of anyone who's like maybe questioning MIC or questioning trading in general, what are kind of tips that you would give them to kind of maybe keep going and just staying on that track and just putting in the work. Yeah, well, yeah. The first word that comes to mind for me is full immersion. You have to emerge yourself in trading and the process and what you're doing. If you are not completely dedicated to succeeding at trading, don't even mess with it. Like if you aren't 110% there, if you're not ready to put in 18 hours a day for two years, three years, never giving up until you find consistency. Like you've got to know what you're getting into. And when you have accepted that, it's just a nonstop, right? Just keep going. But for me, like as far as if you're just joining MIC or something, you have to immerse yourself in the process. And that doesn't just mean watching the videos. That doesn't just mean like, oh, this is the first resistance. This is the process, right? It's like the process is everything in MIC. It's freaking, you'll be in after hours in the evenings, right? Talk with the community. Read main chat during the market hours. Have a tab group where you're talking with people about trading the whole time. Watch videos in your free time. Like you've got to immerse yourself in every aspect of it. And it has to become your life. Like if you're trying to become successful at trading and then every evening you're hanging out with friends and the weekends, you forget that you're trying to learn how to day trade, it's gonna be very hard for you to succeed. You've got to like commit to it. But find yourself people who you can talk to. That is really important. When you feel alone, it's really hard to stay motivated. So find people who you can talk to, which the moderators in MIC are always available. There's so many people, if you send a message out in after hours, you're gonna get like 10 people at least who respond to you or DM you, you know? So find people who you can talk with, find people who keep you going because it's really difficult alone. And then just commit to it from day one. Just commit to watching them. People don't know this man, sorry to cut you off but I started to interject while you're on this subject because when MIC first started it was like guys like me, Harry, Tom, like Joe, like all the mods now. It's funny like hearing you talk about this because when MIC started, there was no video library. It was like week to week. We were like getting videos as they came out. And like we would spend like, I swear it was like 70% of our day in after hours.  And it was kind of like the first time in our lives. I think a lot of us, at least me, I know Harry had like some friends in training before but like for me it was like the first time in my life I met people that were on the same path as me. And I feel like that's kind of like been a massive help for you. It was like you early on met people on the same trajectory as you like with Xander and like these next gen guys and stuff like that. So how do you guys like in your tab group like how do you benefit each other? What do you guys do for each other? What has helped you guys push each other to where you're at right now? Yeah, I mean, it's relationship. It's just everything. Like we are joking with each other during the afternoons and the evenings.  We are, you know, every morning pre-market we are watching the market together. We're going over plans. We're building watch lists. If one person says I'm looking at this ticker and we all pull it up and we're like, okay that's not niche. That's a big market cap or something. We'll call each other out. But it's like we go over charts together. Every Friday we just started this. Every Friday we have a call that we do. And our group is like it's Selena, AP Trades, the twins, Ponto. So like there's a lot of us in there. Jesus, that's sick. Yeah, there's like 10 or 12 of us. But yeah, it's just, it's relationship. Like we're there for each other. When one of us has a bad day and we take a loss we send our charts and we encourage each other. We talk about what we did wrong. When one of us has a really good day we congratulate each other. We are, you know, we talk about it. We go, what do we do right? How can we replicate this?  So when I have free time, I'm in our Discord group and fooling around with my friends. And we're talking trading or talking life. No jokes. Xander and I just bought oculuses and we're gonna start to watch tape.  You can watch tape and price action in your oculus. So actually tonight we're just going to get on call together, put on the oculuses and watch price action. And just mess around.  We'll be sitting there drinking and just like staring at like random tape from like 1970s. You can see three tapes by the end of that. Yeah. I love that, dude. I love that. Yeah, it's just relationship. It's like holding each other accountable. It's having fun together. It's talking, you know, the good, the bad, everything. I like, I feel like you guys are gonna be the like the poster guys for like the MIC process from like start to finish. Cause you're doing everything right. Like and you just gotta keep on that path and keep doing what you're doing. I really love it. Yeah. Oh, I just, I don't mean to cut you off. Did you ever think about taking like a vacation or like a step away from training for a little bit? Just to- Okay, so coming up this next week, we've got family coming in town. And so, you know, for my dad's memorial. So I'm forced to take a week vacation and it is killing me inside. There is nothing that I want to do more than just show up to the market every day. Now there is a balance to that. So I did not even consider taking a vacation. I'm not gonna take a vacation for a year plus if I don't have to.  But there is a balance of not burning out because that is a reality. And you've got to have balance in your life but the balance needs to be controlled by discipline. So if it's like, okay, I've got an hour break.  If I've got an hour break or I need to refresh my mind, I will, you know, I'll go workout. I'll go running. I will talk to family. I'll, you know, meditate, whatever it is. So it's like, you need to have breaks so you don't burn out. But as far as vacation time or taking time away, I just can't do it. I want to succeed way too bad. And it's like I'm holding my breath until I get to that point of consistency which I'm just starting to get into. So vacations and time off is not something that I'm really, it's in the realm for me for a little while. Yeah, cause I just wanted to maybe just touch on that. Because like, you know, I'm 21 now. I got into this when I was younger, like you as well. And like you do kind of remind me of like myself a lot. And, but just know that like the burnout is real, you know, like it is real and it will come.  You're young. But the burnout is really real. And it can, you know, it can, you don't understand until it kind of creeps up on you. So I would really recommend that you do kind of just try a little bit. Like I know that you have the week coming up and but also that's some, some heavy stuff too. Cause like it's your dad's memorial. Like it's not really the time off.  And so, you know, I would just say, just know that the burnout is real. And when you do feel it, don't keep pushing, you know, immediately take a break and say, guys, like I'm feeling burnout. Cause what I did is I just kept going through it and through it and through it and through it.   It's impossible. But, you know, I would really recommend that you do, you know, cause James goes to, you know, he went to New Hampshire last weekend and James is moving around too, you know, but if you can take time off in between and don't look at it as it's holding you back because my big, my biggest pivots came from time off, where I had a lot of time to think and reflect on my own trading and mistakes I've made and things I've done, that's really helped me as well. So, you know, just understand that, you know, the burnout is real, it will come. You don't think it will, but it does. And it's really what you do with it that can really turn you from a six figure trader to a seven, you know, seven figure trader, you know, that it's a big, big, big, you know, I think it's a really big deal that, you know, a lot of guys, you know, just keep working and working and working and working, but you know, when you have time to let your mind breathe and really soak in all that knowledge, you can really, really, really do really good things with it. So I just wanted to kind of point that out as well because I've been there, you know, I got into this when I was like 17, you know, I'm 21 now and it will come and you don't expect it. And then you're just, you can't do work at all.   So I just thought that I'd kind of point that out as well because, you know, I've been there. And like I probably get burned out once every three months now, you know, just because I burned myself out so hard where I just need to take a break and, you know, sleep in a little bit and really like I'm from Canada. So I mean, up until now you couldn't really take any vacations.    Like, you know? No, it's important. I think I have such a opposite view of most. Like I always see on Twitter, the people that are like, oh, I'm putting in like 200 hours a week and doing everything I can. And I always think that is really important. Like I think obviously studying it, this is so key but also like remembering like why you do it is so important. Like that's why I try to get away on the weekends.   And like I see my dad when I can, like it's just, you know, doing those things to remind yourself like why you're working so hard actually like propels you forward faster, I think. And it just, it just makes it easier. And I think that the fact that you have this group that you're going to be able to push each other pretty far. So I really like what you guys are doing. And I think I'm just very impressed. I don't see many young guys kind of putting in the head, the work into this that you guys are. I have friends that are in their late 20s or like 30s that some of them want to do it. And I don't see them putting in half the work or even 25%. So I really, I really commend you guys. I think it's cool. No, I appreciate that. And it's really true what you're saying, Harry. I think like the key for me with that is like acknowledging what season I'm in. So like when I first started trading or first started like educating myself, I think that for anybody who's getting into it there is a season where you need to like, you know, cut everything out, you need to like bottom down, do nothing but like trading. But then what you're saying, which is very true is like acknowledging when is the season shifting to where it's time for you to take a deep breath or it's time for you to allow your thoughts to kind of sink in. And I actually, I did push myself too far as like a couple of months ago and I felt that burnout. And that's when stuff with the family was happening.  And I came back to it like, you know, the beginning of October feeling really refreshed. So I do, yeah, it's really true what you're saying. And it's so difficult for me though, because it's like, if I take time off, I feel like I'm slacking and I feel like I'm missing opportunity. I've got like FOMO, man. No, no, there's tough. If Harry and I aren't even here, we're texting each other, like talking about like Slack, talking about what's going on, something being said or whatever.  It's always such like, it's literally tough, but it's just, it's hard. It's hard to avoid this stuff. But I guess where you're at in your career now, like what's something you're like struggling with? Is there anything that's giving you trouble from getting to the next step? Like kind of touch on that if you can. Yeah, I mean, definitely it's psychology, my own mind. You guys talked about this with David, the last podcast was Imposter Syndrome. And that's something that's actually been a topic in our tag group since then, and we've been dwelling on it a lot. That's the most difficult thing for me. Going into October and everything, I found like a level of consistency and I feel like I can look at a chart and I know what to do. But what I'm trying to do now is size up into that. Nothing crazy. I'm not like tripling my size and stuff. I'm sizing up small, but when I go to size up, I like get like caniky and I feel like, no, like I can't size up yet. Like I haven't learned the process enough, right? I don't have enough consistency or I'm gonna take big losses. So I guess that would be the biggest thing that's stopping me from moving forward would be psychology of like trying to get past the fear of losses, get past the fear of feeling like I don't know enough. And that imposter syndrome is definitely something that I'm trying to overcome right now. Yeah, I think you're in a situation where you have a bit of the knowledge now and but like the account is kind of lagging a bit behind. And what I kind of did when I was like in that stage is like I completely stopped focusing on the P&L day today. I completely stopped focusing on those kind of fluctuations. And I really tried to make good habits in my trading every single day. And by doing that, that has kind of like snowballed and snowballed and snowballed because P&L has always been a lagging indicator, right? You get the knowledge, you get the experience, you get the whatever, P&L slowly lags behind that. And it's a slow process. And you're like, man, I know how to do this. I know how to do that. Like what is stopping me? But it's just the P&L is such a slow lagging process. And what people do is that, they think P&L should be X or P&L should be this. And they get in a situation where they start over trading and they start really trying to make that P&L catch up and catch up and catch up and catch up. And so what you can do is just focus on the process and don't focus on who you wanna be or who you wanna become more someone else or me or James or anyone else like that. Just really, really focus on your own growth and your own journey.  Like I'm, and I talked about this with David too. Like I have half a Twitter muted.  They're not like Alex or Bao or James or people in my own circle. They're external. And so I try and keep barriers around that external life to keep these people out.      You know, I asked myself all the time, you know, if I didn't put in this much work and like I took breaks and went out and partied every weekend, would I be here? And like, that's a hard question to struggle with too. Would I have made it on my own or was it that extra work and that burnout that took me to this point, you know?  What got you there? Like, do I say it was the burnout and the whatever? Or, you know, like, so I don't know, you know? It's a hard question to struggle with and I think everyone is different with it, you know? Yeah, yeah. So I think, I think with the imposter stuff, well, first of all, the last week I took Harry's advice and I just unfollowed on Twitter. Like, it wasn't even more so people, some people, but it was more so like, I unfollowed like any people, anyone who was arrogant, like just like talked about trading like they were like a godsend and I got rid of those people. I got rid of the negative kind of like news feeds too. Like anything that I can look at and like bother me and like give me kind of like a weird mental psychological state in the morning and even at night and I got rid of it and honestly, God, I sleep better at night. I feel better. Like I just like am generally I feel more positive. So that was a really good piece of advice and I really liked that. And then as far as the imposter syndrome thing, I think everyone has that at some point. They're like, is this real life and a good, like this might be kind of off the path so stay with me, but I was talking to one of my clients who's a heart surgeon. And I asked him this kind of question about the imposter syndrome because we were talking about trading actually and I was saying how that's what it felt like this was a while ago. And he was saying like, he's like, you know, I went through all this work at school.  I just felt like I was getting kind of what I deserve and like what I was, what I earned because I put in so many hours and so much time that like he's like, I just didn't have that. And I kind of took that into my trading.  And then that's like a whole new mentality of like, all right, now I know what I'm doing and how to execute it. And then it's just doing what you're doing now, just slowly sizing up, slowly growing.   And like I said, you guys are killing it now. So it's like, just eventually you'll wake up one day and you're like, it hit me like not that long ago. I was just like, this is my life, this is my job.   It's not like, am I gonna be successful at this? Just like, this is it. So that'll hit you at some point too. And sooner rather than you think, I think too. So like I said, man, I love what you're doing. And obviously we've hit our kind of time limit here but the last piece for you, do you have any last minute advice for any new traders coming in? I mean, don't give up, right? Like don't give up. It's gonna be a really long journey.  And you just got to what Bao always says, don't compare your level one to somebody's a level 100. So just stay in your lane, don't give up, keep fighting for it and keep it simple. That really screwed me over because I'm a major over thinker and specifically with the MISC process, it's so simple. Like there's so much to it, but it's so simple to learn. It's so simple to follow. You just have to get the process inside of yourself and then it becomes like second nature which is what I'm starting to feel. So keep it simple, don't overthink things, don't try to rush it, stay in your lane and just keep moving forward. Every single day just do one thing to move forward and surround yourself with people that promote that, that encourage you with that, that don't make you feel like you should be doing something you're not, that don't make you feel like you should be going all in. Surround yourself with people that encourage you in the proper way to succeed in trading and not in the wear Lambo mindset. You've got to find the right way to surround yourself. I completely agree with it. I think for you now, it's just a matter of slowly compounding those habits and slowly compounding the P&L and just everything. For you, it's just a game of time compounding and keeping your losses under control. And if you can do that, then you're going to be super successful, right? Yeah, for sure. So we cut it there, that was good, I like that ending. Awesome.


The poor actor could not decide if he was a man or a woman. I can't decide. I just can't decide. So he-she decided to split it in the middle. Oh, you want to split down the middle? There you go. Some have called his-her decision half-cocked. You can't go around half-cocked. But he-she proceeded wholeheartedly with his-her half-cocked decision. Protest, and we know heartedly believe that with your help, we can conflate buying our products with genuine activism. Honestly, I remember the days when most dudes were obsessed with going the opposite direction of this kind of half-cocked decision. You don't send them off half-cocked. Not that that's healthy either. I'm just saying. Times, they are a-changing, man. But whatever.

We sit, when we drink vodka, we'll bring vodka. This is delicious vodka. This is delicious vodka. Vodka is not my favorite. Vodka is mixed. But I would love to, obviously this is lemonade vodka. It's delicious. You can't get it outside of South Carolina. This one from Firefly. Which is a shame, it's delicious. But anyways, vodka, I would love to go to Russia and get vodka. Yeah, that would be a cool thing on a bucket list to do. You've had vodka in Russia. Vodka is also the one liqueur that I feel there's a drastic difference. I mean, there's it from everyone, but I feel like the biggest difference between expensive and cheap is in vodka. Even more so than tequila? That'd be a close one. Yeah, because for me it's tequila. Cheap tequila is... Both of them. Cheap vodka, cheap tequila. Yeah. Anyways, that was... Solid slime. Slime. Slime. Juice!  I'm not Russian. You wish you were Russian. You can follow us on Instagram, Twitter for more juice content. Like, subscribe to our channel, follow us on Twitter, cover our YouTube channel, and you can vote for the A-square. Bang! Follow our personal channel, the description below. You know when Vladimir has beans, Vladimir's Putin. And murdering people. Sorry. He doesn't do that. It's just the KGB. Oh, they don't exist anymore. Ah! Anyways, today we're doing a cricket video. Tell them about my lifeguard pants.  I do, you know why? I got the red pants. And I got this. Hey, hey! Reference those. Yep. All that. It's because of your bulge. It's because of my blue ball. Today we're doing a cricket video. Yay. This is... Speaking of blue balls. Ten unplayable swing deliveries. I've heard that now. No. Swing deliveries by Indian fast bowlers. Ten unplayable swing deliveries by Indian fast bowlers. Yeah. That's a lot of adjectives. That is a lot of adjectives. Ah, swing bowling is an arc that not all bowlers can master. As it is said, bowling fast is something that can be achieved, but very few can move the ball literally, laterally, in either direction with the... With spoofing deviations? Spoofing. Wow. Is that like the boofing from... I don't know. Because when you say spoof... Spoof only means like a mocking kind of a thing. If you do a spoof, like Mel Brooks did a spoof of Star Wars with Spaceballs. So I've heard that terminology in... You know, Schwartz is bigger than mine. Spaceballs, if you haven't seen... Just plain yogurt. I'd be interested if Indians, obviously they didn't grow up in America. Yeah, you would get spaceballs. Or get Mel Brooks in general. In general. Because a lot of what he did was parody comedy of great American things. So Young Frankenstein's a parody of Frankenstein. Blazing Saddles is a parody of all the great Spaghetti Westerns. Spaceballs is a parody of Star Wars. High Anxiety is a parody of all of Alfred Hitchcock's films. I'd be interested, let us know if you love Mel Brooks. Obviously if you've seen a lot of American films, classics, you might. You might. And even if you didn't, something like Young Frankenstein, I don't know why you still wouldn't just adore Young Frankenstein. It's Frankenstein! Exactly. Anyways, that's nothing to do with this video. True.  That's why you come here. Here we go. Hey guys. Hi. Welcome to Extrainix. Thank you. Thank you. This is Hitch and today I will present you 10 Unplayable Stream Relieveries by Indian Polling Legends. Okay. Do watch till the end. It's so weird. Okay. It's like he's hypnotizing us. I hope the video quality is okay. That's usually what is challenging with a lot of these. Yeah. Did that go through him? It looked like it went through him. Where did it go? It went through his legs. Ridiculously impressive because I don't even know where that went. Okay. I don't know. Once again it literally looked like it went through him. That's what I thought was Earfron Khan that we were changing in the stadium. Yes. Yeah, do you see that movement? Jay! Like, you couldn't have gotten closer to him without like hitting him. Correct delivery from biology. Can you show it again? Yeah, like from before he releases it?  Pakistan have lost two wickets very quickly. Mila lead looks to me down the same twins in under the back of the new bats. Did you see how he was holding that? Yeah. Yeah, that was... Wow, grip specific. Did that just go like straight on the... Did you see the cat in the Yankees game, Mila? Yes. It was spectacular. The fans were cheering for it. Yeah. MVP. Only so poor in quality. Plus, I'm a lot of... lot of them are old. Really? I guess. I can't see anything but that. Trish Shun. That looks like it's going at least 70 miles an hour. Yeah, I think it's okay. How fast did they say they were going? They can go up to 90. Usually between like 70 and just around 90. The thing that's crazy to me, obviously they have to be so precise in knowing how it's going to bounce. Yeah. If it hits them, that's a ball, right?  Yeah, it's got to be so precise though. Yeah. And know where exactly...  It seems like a lot of variables. A lot of variables. Because like in baseball, it's just how he throws it in his velocity, right? But it's not a different element, like the ground, correct? Sorry, there's one pixel on the screen. That's the unfortunate thing about all this.   That guy. So frustrating to have to try to focus. Look how, he goes in between the bat and the person. That's insane. Yeah, that's who Ranbeer's playing. I recognize him. Yeah, uh, Dave's, uh, couple. I'm not going to be able to see it at all. Cameraman, I couldn't see it either. Yeah, that's always the, it seems like the past six or seven videos we've done with cricket. You can hardly see. Well, cause a lot of the ones were, uh, cause obviously we can't do the ICC ones. Right. Cause they block and copyright strike. Um, so like for the cricket stuff is a lot of people love when we do cricket reactions. They love obviously the sport. Yeah. It's like the top, whatever, ever. So it's all their videos. And so a lot of them are extremely great. I have no way of, I can't watch the video before. Yeah. I just don't understand why they're so bad. Yeah. Like I was just this morning, I was at the gym and on the TV, they had a classic baseball game on the TV between the Dodgers and the Astros from early 1980s. So we're talking 40 years ago and it was fine. America. Is that, it's just a matter of budget. They have much better cameras here than they probably did cause one cricket. Obviously it's popular in India, but worldwide it wasn't extremely popular until very recently with the T20s. Right. Yeah. Um, and so the, a lot of money wasn't put into it. Um, like obviously in America. And I don't even really know as well. I mean, how much, that'd be a really cool thing to learn about. Cause like I know the history of both of baseball, it's history in radio and it's history in television. I'd love to know that like cricket cause like when my dad was a little boy, when he was really little, it was just listen on the radio. Baseball. Yeah. That's it. And then it was black and white TV and it was one camera behind center, behind the plate. And then they eventually got two cameras. It was one of the outfield and there was one, and you could see it in some of the really, really old footage. And then by the time we hit the 1960s and early 70s, the footage started to get really, really good. I wonder what that's like as well. I wonder when cricket even started to become televised in India. That'd be interesting. Yeah. You guys obviously, I'm sure no, so let us know. But yeah, the thing that's most impressive though, it's like, cause it looked like a lot of times, so like they're standing like this, the ball will go in here. It looks like bats here, their bodies here, and the ball goes in there to the wicket. Right. Which is insane skill. Yeah. Cause I'm guessing, obviously they're a professional, they know that ball's going to go there. Absolutely. I think it's exactly like Major League Baseball pitching in terms of you know exactly where you're going to put the ball. You can make mistakes every once in a while, but within a matter of a centimeter or two, you have an idea of what you want to do. The pitcher is in complete control usually for the 99.9% of the time of what the ball's going to do. Right. You add the ground, it gets a bad spin on the ground. Well, not just a bad spin on the ground, but the pinpoint accuracy with which you may get a spin on the ball the way you want it to go, but you're going to have to place it in the exact right spot for it to go and actually hit the sticks. Because if you do it too soon, it could bounce too high. If you do it too far, it could bounce in the wrong direction. So the pinpoint accuracy of where they throw it on the ground and then matching the spin with the ball so that it does what they want it to do on the skip is pretty remarkable. And pretty crazy.  Betty White. To just not move.  That's true. Like this ball is now going crazy. It's hitting something. You have no idea where it's going and you just... Well, and I bet I could be wrong, but I bet there's something comparable as well in terms of the batsman is guessing what the thing's going to be thrown at them that happens in baseball as well. And you freeze. Because it's not what you were expecting. So if you were expecting, for example, something to come at you on a pretty straight hop or it was going to curve to the outside and it kicks and comes in, especially if you see the release and you think you can pick up the spin on the ball when it leaves the hand and when it hits the ground that goes in the opposite direction, it'll freeze you. In baseball, you know the ball's coming within basically this, unless it's obviously a ball, obviously, and it's crazy out. It's coming in a relatively similar area. You could literally go anywhere. Well, the other thing that's crazy about this is not only is it coming in basically anywhere and it's skipping off the ground but your swing can hit it anywhere. Yeah! Which that's just, that was the craziest thing for me to comprehend is that the ball is fair, 360. I still can't wrap my head around that as a batsman. I think they're actually about to have cricket games here in LA. Are they? Like, because like, I think somebody sent me something and it was like the U.S. Cricket League. Cool. Obviously, we have one here. But I didn't know, I didn't look into exactly when it is so maybe I'll look into that because I loved going to both the games that we went to. Oh, yeah. Even though it was quite sad, it was, I didn't mean to say, I did prefer Mumbai. Yeah. That was, the crowd especially. It was different. Even though we had a fun crowd, we had a fun crowd, but it was humid. Oh God, it was awful. That's a word. I mean, I guess it's good for cricket. It's probably good for the field to be humid and stuff, but like, I don't know. Dang. Game had to be called because of the lightning. Down for. Yeah. Anyways, let us know other cricket videos we should react to. And if you know about the U.S. Cricket League, let me know. Double. Josh!

Welcome to George H. Smith's Excursions into Libertarian Thought, a production of Libertarianism.org and the Cato Institute, narrated by James Foster. Ludwig von Mises and Economic Calculation Under Socialism, Part 1. Ludwig von Mises, 1881 to 1973, was a brilliant economist, a leading proponent of the Austrian School of Economics, but he was more. He was an interdisciplinary thinker of remarkable breadth who was conversant in history, social theory and philosophy. His greatest book, Human Action, is a masterful exposition of praxeology, the science of human action, and throughout his many other books, such as theory and history, the epistemological problems of economics, and the theory of money and credit, we see an original first rate mind at work. Mises is perhaps best known for his early critique of socialism, which convinced many economists, including a young socialist named Friedrich Heich, that rational economic calculation is impossible in a socialist system. Optimal economic coordination requires a free market in which prices transmit crucial information about the supply and demand of capital goods. Mises drew on the Austrian theory of value to argue that socialism cannot solve the problem of economic calculation. Thus, before presenting the Misesian argument, I will present some relevant background information on this theory of value. Central to all economic analysis is the concept of value. In classical economics whose major exponents include Adam Smith, David Ricardo, and John Stuart Mill, two kinds of value were often distinguished, namely the value in use and value in exchange. Use value signifies the usefulness or utility of a given commodity, such as water. Because water is essential to human life, it was said to have a high use value. Exchange value, in contrast, refers to what a given commodity can fetch in the market when it is exchanged for something else. Because diamonds will command a good deal in return, they were said to have a high exchange value. As Adam Smith put it in The Wealth of Nations, the word value has two different meanings and sometimes expresses the utility of some particular object and sometimes the power of purchasing other goods which the possession of that object conveys. After distinguishing value in use from value in exchange, Smith continued, The things which have the greatest value in use have frequently little or no value in exchange. And, on the contrary, those which have the greatest value in exchange have frequently little or no value in use. Nothing is more useful than water, but it will purchase scarce anything. Scarce anything can be had in exchange for it. A diamond, on the contrary, has scarce any value in use, but a very great quantity of other goods may frequently be had in exchange for it. Although modern economists sometimes refer to this distinction as the paradox of value or the water-diamond paradox, this was not how it was viewed by Smith and his many predecessors going back to Aristotle. Smith was not puzzled by this paradox, which he explained in the same manner as it had been explained many times before, that is, in terms of relative scarcity. As he put it in his lectures on jurisprudence, the market price of a commodity depends on three things. First, the demand or need for it, whether this be real or capricious. Second, the abundance of it in proportion to this demand. Third, the wealth of the demanders. Something for which there is no demand, such as a lump of clay, will not command a market price. But, if something is perceived as useful and thereby generates a demand, then the price will be regulated according to the demand. Thus, even a good which has little use value will command a high price if the quantity be not sufficient to supply the demand, hence the price of diamonds. On the other hand, a highly useful good like water, if it exists in superabundance and is able to more than supply all possible demands, renders water of no price at all. Although Smith's explanation is valid as far as it goes, the positing of two different types of value generated some problems for classical economists that they were unable to resolve. A unified theory of value did not emerge until the 1870s when there occurred what is known as the marginal utility revolution in economic thought. This important innovation was arrived at independently by three men. William Stanley Jevons in England, Leon Valras in Switzerland, and Carl Menger in Austria. Although these men differed somewhat in their treatments of marginal utility, their central insights were essentially the same. The term marginal utility was coined by the Austrian economist Friedrich von Wieser. As these economists pointed out, when we choose one commodity over another, we do not consider the general usefulness of that commodity. We do not, for example, consider the general utility of water, its role in supporting human life when deciding how much we are willing to exchange for a specific amount of water. True, if we had to choose between all the water in the world and all the diamonds in the world, then we would choose water over diamonds, but rarely are we faced with this all or nothing situation. Instead, we confront commodities as they exist in specific quantities or units, and how much we subjectively value a given unit of a given commodity depends on how we plan to use it. Suppose we are deciding whether or not to purchase a gallon of water. How much we are willing to pay will be based not on the general usefulness of water, but on the contribution that the additional gallon of water will make to satisfying our marginal wants. And this, of course, depends on how much water we already have. A man dying of thirst in a desert will value a gallon of water more highly than he would in normal circumstances because he will use that gallon to sustain his life rather than using it, say, to wash his car, which is what he might do in circumstances in which water is more plentiful. Thus, economic value ultimately depends not on the general usefulness of a commodity, but on the specific usefulness or marginal utility of a given unit of that commodity in satisfying our most pressing desires. If water is abundant, that is, if most of our important wants are easily satisfied by the available water, then we will place a relatively low value on each additional unit of water because that unit will be used to fulfill a want that we consider relatively unimportant. And if diamonds, while greatly prized, are normally scarce, then we will place a relatively high value on each additional unit of diamonds because that unit will be used to satisfy a want that ranks high on our scale of preferences. As I noted before, the classical economists were able to explain the water-diamond paradox fairly well in terms of relative scarcity, but their dualistic theory of value, which distinguished between use value and exchange value, created more problems than it solved. The theory of marginal utility was a significant theoretical advance because it was able to dispense with this dichotomy in favor of a unified theory of value. It was now understood that exchange value can ultimately be explained in terms of use value, provided that we correctly understand the meaning of use value as referring to the marginal use of a specific quantity of an economic good. This is where the discussion of marginal utility by Carl Menger, 1840 to 1921, is especially important if we are to appreciate what Ludwig von Mises had to say about economic calculation. Menger, who is generally acknowledged as the founder of the Austrian school, stressed the subjective nature of use value. The economic value of a commodity, argued Menger, depends ultimately on our subjective valuations, specifically on how we assess the usefulness of a good in furthering our subjective goals. Economic science does not pass judgment on the true worth or objective value of an economic good. It does not, for instance, evaluate the true worth of water in relation to diamonds. Rather, economics takes as its starting point what people do in fact value, and it then analyzes the economic phenomena that emerge from this pursuit of subjective goals. Menger's distinctive contribution to marginal utility was his extension of this theory to what he called goods of a higher order, or what are sometimes called capital goods, or the means of production, in contrast to consumer goods. Many economists had contrasted supply or the factors of production with consumer demand, as if these elements operated according to different principles of value. But this is incorrect, said Menger. Ultimately, the value of all higher order goods depends on their role in producing consumer goods, those things that people use directly to satisfy their desires. Goods of a higher order, so-called because they fall higher than consumer goods on the scale of production, are indirect means of satisfying human wants. A steel factory may not produce anything that is directly used by the consumer, but it does satisfy consumer demand indirectly by providing the material for the building of cars and other goods that are directly used by the consumer. Menger's discussion of higher order goods allowed him to apply the notion of marginal utility not only to consumer goods, but to the factors of production as well. This insight proved essential to the Misesian argument that planners in a socialist economy will be unable to engage in rational economic calculation. Mises first advanced his argument in a 1920 essay, Economic Calculation in the Socialist Commonwealth, and he expanded upon it two years later in his seminal book, Socialism and Economic and Sociological Analysis. Pure socialism is a system in which there is no private ownership of the means of production. All production decisions are made by a central planning authority, unlike a market system in which capitalists and entrepreneurs can base their production decisions on the market prices of higher order goods, the planners in a socialist economy have no such prices to guide them. What then can these planners substitute for market prices? What rational criteria can they use in determining which higher order goods are needed and in what amount in order to produce the desired consumer goods? Without market prices to guide production, argued Mises, no rational calculation is possible. Thus, the supposed rational economic planning of socialism, or any kind of planned economy, leads to economic chaos, to inefficiency, and waste on a massive scale.

Who is the book for? Well, really in my heart I feel the book is for everyone, although I would say everyone who really in their heart wants to feel a really lasting sense of happiness. Everyone has the potential and the opportunity to reach inner peace. And that's the happiness of the book. And many people have said that they actually don't want to put it down when they start.
