Secrets
Secrets are real. And profitable. Says Peter Thiel in Zero to One.
When I read Ryan Holiday’s Conspiracy, I realized that Peter Thiel had his own secret hidden from Saudi Businessmen-- that Peter Thiel is gay.
So secrets do indeed exist, and they exist as information. In war, the whole point is to gather information to beat the opponent before carnage even starts.
So I also think, of a quote by Naval Ravikant who said that if you have a lot of secrets, you won’t be happy. I might be wrong, but it may be because you’re not speaking freely about what you know is true.
