Yeah he's full of it. Only an idiot would predict a 25 year weak market. The US has 7/10 top companies in the world. The mkt will make a new high in 12 to 24 months.
I think you need 3 types of goals. 1 basic tasks to complete to function. 2 life improvement ie investing or skills. 3 fun goals ie scuba diving or drive mhs loop.
But if you fail at some goals don't worry about it. Move onto another set of goals.
I think we need fun goals though. Eating and cleaning is a bit dull. We need goals but we need to not get upset if it doesnt happen. Be joyful regardless. He argues life is about joyfullness. Be happy then good things follow.
