Believing your own "shit" can cost you.

One of the reasons I like listening to Mark Cuban is he believes his own shit.

I think though he has a limit to it and that is how he kept his fortune when he sold to Yahoo. Now he just believes his own shit in a diversified fashion.

So I guess you can believe your own shit – just have more than one shit in the works!

I was reading this Wall Street Jornal article about George Gilder who rode the tech boom up and rode it back down – in style!

I love this quote from George – “The trouble with my business is that everyone came in at the peak,” Mr. Gilder said in a recent interview. “The typical Gilder subscriber lost all his money and that made it very hard for me to market the newsletter.”

George – THE TROUBLE IS THAT YOU DID NOT RECOGNIZE THAT EVERY RETARD CAME IN AT THE PEAK. It’s fun for me to call guys like this a putz, but that is a rather simplistic analysis. He is an epic putz – in denial! He had no risk management controls. Like – “what if…”

The shame about George Gilder is – if you can get others to believe your own shit and get Wall Street and the media to do all your dirty distribution of your shit – YOU DON”T NEED TO BELIEVE YOUR OWN SHIT.

So that just makes him a stupid asshole?
