This isn't your average business podcast and he's not your average host. This is the James Altiger Show. Today on the James Altiger Show. Great stuff came up on the Q&A. First off, I've been making a list.
这不是普通的商业播客，他也不是普通的主持人。这就是詹姆斯·奥特格秀。今天在詹姆斯·奥特格秀上，问答环节出现了很棒的内容。首先，我正在制作一张清单。
One of my daughters wants to do a side hustle. Not only this next summer, but over the next year. And I realized a lot of these lists of side hustles are generic and stupid. Just telling somebody, oh, you could do Uber Eats. That's not really a good idea. You get three cents for every mile you drive.
我其中一位女儿想要做兼职赚钱。不仅仅是下个夏天，而是在未来一年内。我意识到许多兼职赚钱的列表都很泛泛，也很愚蠢。只是告诉别人，哦，你可以做Uber Eats。这不是一个好主意。你每开一英里的车只能得到三美分。
So I wanted to figure out side hustles that could turn into actual sources of making a living. It may be even businesses. So I've been working on that list and I shared that. I also talked about how did the Rolling Stones, the band that's been around for 50 years, how did they go from worst to first? I talked about my own particular productivity methods.
所以我想找出可以变成实际赚钱策源地的副业。甚至可能成为企业。所以我一直在研究这个清单并分享它。我还谈到了滚石乐队，这个已经存在50年的乐队是如何从最差到最好的？我谈到了我自己特定的生产力方法。
I talked about how to validate an idea, talked about Andrew Yang and what I currently think of him. Actually, I've upped my opinion considerably recently. And then, and this is an odd one, but why does chicken have flexible rubber in it? Specifically, why flexible?
我谈了谈如何验证一个想法，谈了谈Andrew Yang以及我目前对他的看法。实际上，最近我对他的看法有了相当大的提升。另外，这是一个奇怪的问题，但是为什么鸡肉里面有柔软的橡胶？具体来说，为什么是柔软的？
That and more listen to the Q&A here. And if you have any more questions for me, I will be happy to answer them. Ask me by texting me at 203-590-8607. Enjoy. Oh my gosh. So much stuff going on. I feel like it's been forever since we all hung out. What do we do this weekend?
那些以及更多问题都可以在这里听问答。如果你对我还有更多的问题，我会很乐意回答。发短信给我，号码是203-590-8607。享受吧。哦天哪，太多事情发生了。我感觉自从我们上次聚会已经很久了。这个周末我们干什么好呢？
We come to Florida, this weekend, or we've been here. When did we fly? I think we came on Thursday. Thursday? We did? Yeah, we did. So we've been here like four days. So lots of stuff going on.
这个周末我们来到了佛罗里达，或者说我们已经在这儿了。我们是什么时候飞来的呢？我记得我们是星期四来的。星期四？是吗？是的。所以我们已经在这儿待了四天。还有很多事情在发生。
Just I want to start off again with the BS non-headline of the day. And what really bothers me is that you go on CNN. All the news is virus and Trump and Trump said this, Trump said that. They don't run. Most people don't care anymore. Like we just want to know that we're going to be safe. And I get it. If we wear masks and we stay indoors, we're going to be safe. Fine.
首先，我想开始谈谈今天那些无意义的新闻报道。我真的很不喜欢你在CNN上看到的所有新闻都是关于病毒和特朗普，特朗普说了这个，特朗普说了那个。这些报道已经过时了，大部分人已经不关心了。我们只想知道我们会安全。我明白了。如果我们戴口罩和待在室内，我们就会很安全。好吧。
But this morning, I saw on one outlet that I'm very curious about the Chaz. The Chaz is the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone in Seattle. It's in this kind of, there's a lot of stores there. It's kind of this gentrified neighborhood. The Seattle mayor has said she's not going to do anything about it. The Washington governor said back, I don't know if it's a he or she actually is not going to do anything about it.
今天早上，我在一个媒体看到了我非常好奇的一件事，那就是位于西雅图的国会山自治区（Chaz）。它位于这样一片很多商店的区域，是一个有一定繁荣程度的社区。西雅图市长表示她不会采取任何行动。华盛顿州州长回应说他/她其实也不会采取什么行动，不过我不确定他/她是男性还是女性。
And I don't understand because in the Constitution, the Fifth Amendment of the Constitution says you cannot have life, liberty, or property taken from you without due process. So of course, all the businesses that operate in the Chaz are suing because they can't open their businesses. So how could the government be okay with this? And then you would say that the Seattle mayor says, and I don't know, she's a Democrat. She's a Republican. It doesn't matter really, but I don't know what she is.
我不明白，因为《宪法》第五修正案说，没有经过正当程序，你不能失去生命、自由或财产。所以，当然，所有在查兹经营的企业都在起诉，因为他们不能开展业务。那政府怎么可能同意这种情况呢？然后你会说西雅图市长说，我不知道她是民主党人还是共和党人，其实也不重要，但我不知道她是什么党派。
She says, oh, it's like an arts festival there. It's okay. It's all peaceful protesting. Well, last weekend, some kid got shot. A 19 year old died in this morning. I don't know if you saw this this morning at like three in the morning, some kid got shot and killed. And it's horrible. So I go on CNN, CNN.com is supposed to be our main source of news.
她说：“哦，那儿就像艺术节一样。还好，都是和平的抗议。上个周末，有个孩子被枪杀了。一个19岁的人今天早晨死了。我不知道你有没有看到今天凌晨三点左右，有个孩子被枪杀了。情况太可怕了。所以我去CNN，CNN.com应该是我们的主要新闻来源。”
And I search Chaz. Chaz, where there has been an article since June 25th, it's June 29th. So they think like what Trump ate for breakfast this morning is news. Where it was a Katie Perry is depressed because of her recent breakup with Orlando Bloom. Like that was a headline. But like Chaz or Chaz, where people are suing each other, people are getting shot and killed.
我在搜索 Chaz，Chaz 那里自 6 月 25 日以来就有一篇文章了，现在是 6 月 29 日。他们似乎认为特朗普今天早餐吃了什么是新闻。还有一篇标题是关于凯蒂·佩里因最近与奥兰多·布鲁姆分手感到沮丧的文章。但是在 Chaz，也就是在人们彼此起诉、人们被枪击和杀害的地方，情况完全不同。
Like it's obviously not a peaceful protest. Zero news. What is going on? And you can't get get upset about it because if you get upset about that, you'll get upset about everything that's happening.
就像很明显这不是和平的抗议一样，零消息，到底发生了什么？如果你因此生气，你就会为所有正在发生的事情感到不满。
There's so much hypocrisy in the world right now. I think it's really important. And I was just guilty of it. Like I pointed out some hypocrisy in the news. But I think it's really important to catch yourself and say, you know what? I'm not going to get, there's nothing I can do about it. So I'm not going to get upset about it. And I'm only going to focus on the things that I control. I can only focus on the things I'm getting.
现在这个世界里有很多虚伪。我认为这很重要。而我刚刚也犯了这种错。比如我指出了新闻中的一些虚伪。但我认为很重要的是要自我检讨并说：“你知道吗？我无能为力，所以我不会为此烦恼。我只会专注于我所掌控的事情。我只会专注于我正在得到的事情。”
I can get better at or I can learn, you know, right now. There's a great time to we're in this kind of reset world. And it's such a great time to better ourselves, even though it's usually the best time to better yourself is when it's most difficult. So difficult times create strong people. And that's kind of a cliche.
我可以变得更好或者学到更多，你知道，现在正是一个好时机。我们正处于一个重置的世界中，这是一个很好的自我提升的时机，即使通常情况下，在最困难的时候提升自我才是最好的时机。所以困难的时期制造了坚强的人，这有点陈词滥调。
I want to avoid cliches or too many self-help cliches out there like on Twitter and Instagram. But I find for me the way I'm improving myself is by it's so clear to me and to you also. That's why we're all hanging out here. It's so clear where the hypocrisy is. And it's not Democrat or Republican. It's all of it. It's like the world's being run. I'm not going to get into it. I'm just catching myself right now.
我想避免陈词滥调，或者像Twitter和Instagram中的自助陈词滥调太多。但我发现对我来说，我改进自己的方式是非常清楚的，对你也是如此。这就是为什么我们都在这里闲逛的原因。虚伪在哪里是如此清楚。而且不是民主党或共和党所独有的。这就像是世界在被运作着。我不会进入这个话题。我只是在自我警醒。
Let's focus on some fun stuff. And so I'll go back and forth between some fun notes that I have and you sent me some news articles that were fun and I'll answer some questions. By the way, whatever questions I don't answer, I will eventually answer somewhere. And we'll answer directly via text. So you can text message me or Robin, but me goes to my phone. 203 590 8607 8607 J. Hey, Wally, how's it going? J will put the number up there.
咱们来聚焦一些好玩的事情吧。然后我会在一些我准备好的好玩的笔记和你发给我的好玩的新闻文章之间穿梭，还会回答一些问题。顺便说一下，我没有回答的问题，最终也会在某个地方得以解答。我们可以通过短信直接回答问题，你可以发短信给我或Robin，但我的短信是发到我手机上的。203 590 8607 8607 J。嗨，Wally，最近怎么样啊？J会把电话号码给大家。
And so here's the first question from IG live questions. Unique name. Hi James. Any business ideas that focus on the isolation, people are experiencing and how to connect them. That's a great question. And so there are business ideas and then there are just general ideas.
所以，这是来自 IG 直播问题的第一个问题。独特的名字。嗨，詹姆斯。有没有专注于人们正在经历的隔离和如何联接他们的业务点子。这是个好问题。因此，有业务点子，也有一般的点子。
So for instance, right now, who are the most isolated people? So we all, Chris, Lisa, Max, who are the most isolated people right now? We're four months into the lockdown and a lot of the states are open. All the states to some degree are open. But there are some people that are sadly still locked down. And with good reason, it might be people who are over the age of 70. It might be people who are immunosuppressed in some way.
比如说，现在最孤立的人是谁呢？我们四个人，克里斯、丽莎、马克斯，现在最孤立的人是谁？我们已经进入了四个月的封锁期，很多州都已经开放了。所有州在某种程度上都已经开放了。但是有些人仍然不幸地被封闭了。有很好的理由，可能是年龄超过70岁的人，可能是免疫系统受到抑制的人。
So there are a little bit extra nervous about getting this virus. I mean, on the one hand, they should understand there's 300 million people in the country, 120,000 deaths. So it's a relatively small, very tiny fraction of people dying. But that doesn't mean you want to get this illness, particularly if you're afraid you're not going to be asymptomatic. Everybody wants to avoid it as long as possible.
所以有些人对感染病毒有些额外的紧张。我想说，一方面，他们应该明白这个国家有3亿人口，12万人死亡，所以死亡人数相对来说并不多，只占一个非常小的比例。但是这并不意味着你想得到这种病，特别是如果你担心自己不会无症状。每个人都想尽可能地避免感染它。
So there are some people who are old, like older people, immunosuppressed people and so on. So I think it's a good idea to create like an exchange. Like, let's say I'm eight years old. I can sign up and say, listen, I love talking about history. I love talking about TV shows. I love talking about classical music. I love talking about politics.
所以有些人比较年长，比如老年人、免疫系统受抑制的人等等。因此我认为开设一个交流平台是个好主意。就像，假设我八岁，我可以注册并说：“听好了，我喜欢谈论历史，喜欢谈论电视节目，喜欢谈论古典音乐，还喜欢谈论政治。”
So you know, and I'm on this exchange. And then other people can sign on. And the person can say, I'm willing to pay $10 an hour to just have a Zoom conversation with people. And there are other people who can sign up. And you know, it's a side hustle. They want to make $10 an hour. And they also can talk about history, classical music, and so on.
那么，你知道吗，我正在参加这个交流活动。其他人也可以加入进来。有人会说，我愿意每小时支付10美元，只是为了和人们进行Zoom会话。还有其他人也可以报名。你知道的，这是一个兼职。他们想赚10美元一小时。他们也可以谈论历史、古典音乐等等。
And there can be, it sounds almost prostitute like, but you know, there can be reviews. So if someone signs up and like doesn't know anything about history or classical music, the eight year old could say, oh, there's person was just trying to make a quick buck. You know, so there's review on both sides that can be reviews. And you have people who legitimately, it might be actually other people who are locked down.
这个意思有些像妓女，但其实可以有评论。如果有人注册，却一无所知历史或古典音乐，那么八岁的孩子也可以说，哦，这个人只是想快点赚钱。所以双方可以有评论。有些人可能是真的想要帮忙，也有可能是其他人被锁定的。
There are young people who are locked down who are immunosuppressed and maybe, you know, they want to talk to older people or they want to learn from them or older people want to talk to the younger people or so there could be people who want to just talk to other people who are locked down for free. So build this exchange. Maybe there's a sign up fee to join the exchange. So there's various business models. There could be advertising, you know, buy these gloves and masks and you know, that could be advertising on this platform.
有一些年轻人受限于禁足，他们免疫力较弱、或许他们想与年长的人交流或是向他们学习；或是年长的人想要与年轻人交流。因此，可以建立这种交流平台，让有需要的人可以自由地与其他被禁足的人交流。或许需要缴纳注册费以加入此平台，也可以采用多种不同的商业模式，例如：平台上可以展示广告，如购买手套和口罩等。
So you can create an exchange where people who are locked down can reach out to other people who are locked down. So that's one business model. The other thing is that you could arrange, like, zoom parties. So for instance, I can say sign up if you're locked down or if you're immunosuppressed or whatever and every Friday night or every night, we're going to have a trivia quiz.
所以你可以创建一个交流平台，让被封锁的人们能够联系到其他被封锁的人。这是一个商业模式。另外一个想法是可以安排 zoom 聚会。比如，我可以说，如果你被封锁了或者你免疫力降低了等情况，每个星期五晚上或每晚都可以参加一个有奖问答游戏。
So some people will want to join the history for the quiz. If you will want to join the old movies trivia quiz, other people will want to join the music trivia quiz. So every night there could be trivia quizzes with some parties. Maybe like, and some giveaways, I mean, like gift cards or whatever and people could communicate and break out rooms on this exchange.
有些人会想参加历史类智力竞赛。如果你想参加老电影类智力竞赛，其他人可能会想参加音乐类智力竞赛。因此每晚都会有一些聚会和知识竞赛。或许还有一些送礼活动，比如礼品卡之类的，人们可以在这里交流，也可以用聊天室进行私下交流。
So if you're immunosuppressed, if you're locked down, it could be a whole advertiser. Sign up for, you know, nonstop trivia parties with the immunosuppressed, with the lockdowns. And it could be just a party all day long. And maybe you pay a subscription, like $10 a week to join this as long as you're locked down. And again, you have these trivia quizzes or watching parties or whatever where there's games that are played where, you know, there's awards won or whatever.
如果你的免疫系统低下，如果你被封锁了，那么这可能是一个完整的广告商机。你可以报名参加与免疫系统低下者和被封锁者一起的不停止的小游戏，一整天的派对。你可以每周支付10美元的订阅费来参加这个活动，只要你被封锁。而且，你可以参加这些小游戏或一起观看节目，或者其他有奖励的游戏。
But the other thing is you don't necessarily have to make this a business model. If I was locked down all the time, there's plenty of zoom.
不过另外一件事是你不一定要把它作为商业模式来做。如果我一直被限制在家，有很多的视频会议可以使用。
And just in the past three days, I've been to two zoom hangouts or meetups. They had over 200 people on them.
最近三天我参加了两个 Zoom 聚会，每个聚会都有超过 200 人参加。
And they were really one of them I gave a talk at. And it was a lot of fun. And you meet people and you chat and so on.
他们真的是我参加过的其中一个演讲会。那真的很有趣。你可以认识人并聊天等等。
And then also you could play games online at various game sites. And you can meet people that way. There's chess sites. There's back admin sites. There's poker sites.
然后，你还可以在各种游戏网站上玩在线游戏。通过这种方式，你可以认识人。有国际象棋网站，有背扎网站，还有扑克网站。
So it doesn't necessarily have to be a business model.
那么这并不一定是一个商业模式。
The other thing is a lot of people haven't been able to go out on dates. So you can create like a zoom and this already exists.
另外一件事是很多人无法出去约会。因此，您可以创建一个 Zoom，这已经存在。
But you could find to it. You can make zoom related dating apps. So people who are extra locked down, but want to meet people, you know, create a dating app just for them.
但你可以找到解决方案。你可以制作与缩放相关的约会应用。这样，那些被限制自由的人们，但又想认识人，可以给他们专门制作一个约会应用。
So it's not like just using Tinder and then say, Hey, can we meet only on Zoom because I'm not allowed to go outside yet.
所以并不是仅仅使用Tinder然后说，“嘿，我们只能在Zoom上见面，因为我还不能出门。”
Why don't you go on Tinder? Why do you go outside because they want to do like the, Hey, you, you know, what's up?
你为什么不去使用 Tinder 呢？为什么还要出门去，因为他们想要像 "嘿，你，你知道吗，最近怎样啊？" 那样做呢？
And for you, what's up is you're locked down. So it's nothing's up. You're down. And so you want to meet the other people who are in your boats. There could be dating apps just for this.
对你来说，你是被困的，所以没有什么事情发生。你感到沮丧。所以你想要和其他处于同一情况的人见面。也许可以有特别针对这种情况的约会应用程序。
Anything else for for I think you've covered a lot. I mean, for me again, I like being locked down.
还有其他需要吗？我觉得你已经涵盖了很多内容。我的意思是，对我来说，我喜欢被锁定。
First off, I'm locked down with this beautiful woman. But second off, my ideal since I was 19 years old, so I was 17 years old.
首先，我跟这个美丽的女人住在一起。其次，她是我从19岁时就开始理想化的对象，也就是我17岁的时候。
My ideal day is just to play games all day. And now that this big computer in front of me, I could play chess, poker, I could read, I could write like, yeah, I'm living in the dream.
我的理想日子就是整天玩游戏。而现在我面前有这么一个大电脑，我可以玩棋类游戏、扑克牌游戏，我可以读书，也可以写作，就像，对啊，我在梦里生活一样。
If it wasn't for the fact that 100,000 people are dead and that military style protesters were taking over cities and murder hornets are invading and team levels getting hacked. And over the weekend, Chase Bank was hacked.
如果没有10万人死亡、军事风格的抗议者接管城市、凶残的"杀人蜂"入侵和团队水平受到黑客攻击，周末期间，JP摩根银行也遭到了黑客攻击。
And today Iran issues a subpoena for or for Donald Trump's arrest. And India and China are about to start World War Three. If it wasn't for these little things.
今天伊朗发出传票，要求逮捕唐纳德·特朗普。印度和中国即将爆发第三次世界大战。如果不是这些小事情，就好了。
I'll open that one. Oh, yeah, there's a sandstone coming from the Sahara now. And we just arrive in Florida. Florida becomes the epicenter of the virus.
我会打开那一个。哦，是的，现在有一种来自撒哈拉的砂岩。而我们刚到达佛罗里达。佛罗里达成为病毒的震中。
And there's a sandstorm coming from the Sahara desert for the first time in like 6,000 years. It's like biblical. Like what the heck is going like 2020?
噢，有一场来自撒哈拉沙漠的沙尘暴要来了，这是6000年来的头一次。真是像圣经里写的一样。这2020年到底发生了什么事啊？
Here's okay. I'm going to tell you, I'm just in a flassey. Here's why Donald Trump should get reelected. And it has nothing to do with politics.
嗨，没问题。我要告诉你，我有点不安。以下是为什么唐纳德·特朗普应该连任的原因。这与政治无关。
On our other, he has engineered that we are all living in a gigantic science fiction novel right now. Like this is the creed. This is like dune or like some kind of weird neuro mancer type of science fiction novel.
在我们的另一方面，他设计了一个概念，认为我们目前都生活在一个巨大的科幻小说中。就像这是一种信条一样。这就像是沙丘或某种奇怪的神经术士类科幻小说。
This is like Lord of the Rings with Sohran. Like it started off Australian wildfires. What the hell happened? Did Australia burn to pieces? Like what is going on?
这就像是索伦版的《指环王》。就像开始于澳大利亚的那些野火一样。到底发生了什么鬼？澳大利亚烧成了灰烬吗？现在到底怎么了？
And then Iran, we went to war with Iran. And now I thought that was gone, but now they're arresting. They're just one of the even sent a police officer to the White House. Like how are they going to do that?
然后我们与伊朗开战了。我原以为这已经过去了，可现在他们正在逮捕人。他们甚至派了一名警察到白宫。他们怎么能这样做呢？
And then what else is going on? Like we have impeachment. The deadly pandemic of since 1919. We have these protests and the protests are mixed.
接下来还有什么事情发生呢？比如弹劾事件。自1919年以来的致命疫情。我们有这些抗议活动，而这些抗议活动是复杂的。
Nobody can tell me who everybody says the protests are mixed with other groups. So if you talk to Democrats, the other groups are white supremacists. If you talk to Republicans, the other groups are George Soros funded. So why can't a reporter just go and ask them who are you?
没有人能告诉我每个人都说的抗议活动中混杂了其他团体。所以如果你和民主党人谈论，那么其他团体就是白人至上主义者。如果你和共和党人谈论，那么其他团体就是由乔治·索罗斯资助的。那么为什么记者就不能去问他们，你们是谁？
Why can't anybody figure this out? It's such a big mystery. Like if I was a reporter, that's what my job would be.
为什么没人能搞清楚这件事呢？这真是个大谜团。如果我是一名记者，这就是我的工作了。
Like CNN doesn't report on, you know, I can get an Airbnb in the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone and I can get a plane ticket to Seattle and I can go right in there. But somehow no reporter has been able to go in and figure out who killed who in all of these different shootings.
就像CNN没有报道的那样，我可以在国会山自治区租到一个Airbnb，并且可以买一张去西雅图的机票，然后我就可以直接进去了。但不知何故，没有记者能够进去并弄清楚在所有这些不同的枪击事件中谁杀了谁。
And what the heck is Rassamon doing? So I looked at Rassamon's account today. He's the warlord at the Chess. If I'm going to take a Chesscation, I want to make sure that the warlord is a decent guy, right?
“Rassamon在做什么啊？”我今天看了一下Rassamon的账户。他是象棋的军阀。如果我要去度假玩象棋，我想确保军阀是个像样的家伙，对吧？
You don't want to make sure that the warlord is your enemy. I think you can have coffee with him or something.
你不要确定那个军阀是你的敌人，我觉得你可以和他一起喝咖啡或其他什么的。
So his latest tweet this morning was another snuff video. I'm like watching a TAs like everybody watch this.
他今天早上发的最新推文又是一段残忍的视频。我就像个TA，跟所有人一起看着这个视频。
So I'm watching this video and it's the police. I didn't know if it was the police or people from the Chess or whatever.
我在看这个视频，是警察的。我不知道是警察还是棋类或其他人。
So apparently though it's a 2019 video and the police are walking up to this guy who's in a bus shelter and the guy in the bus shelter is yelling like, at you to the police and the police is like, why are you still there?
看起来是一个2019年的视频，警察正在走向一个在巴士站亭里的家伙，而那个在巴士站亭里的人在大声咆哮着，对警察说着 "对着你"，而警察则问他为什么还在那里。
And then they start shooting and they kill the guy right in front of me. Like how many snuff videos does Twitter, they're going to ban everyone else except like Twitter is literally the snuff social network.
然后他们开始开枪，就在我面前杀死了那个人。就像 Twitter 发布了多少残暴视频一样，他们会封禁其他所有人，除了 Twitter 实际上就是一个残忍社交网络。
Like, you could watch as many dead people as you want on that.
像这样，你可以在上面看无数死人。
And then here's the thing. Rassamon should be worried about the people dying in those little kids dying in the Chess.
然后这件事情就是。Rassamon应该担心那些在棋子里死去的小孩。
He put, I saw, of course, I was disturbed by this video because nobody likes to watch someone shot to death. So I googled what was going on. When I tracked it down, it was a 57 year old man in a bus shelter in Albuquerque, not in Seattle, in Albuquerque in 2019.
他放了，我看到了。当然我对这个视频感到不安，因为没有人喜欢看到别人被枪杀。所以我查了一下发生了什么事情。当我找到它的来源时，它是2019年在阿尔布开尔克的一个公共汽车站里发生的，不是在西雅图。
So it's old news, but it's important news. And here's the thing, the guy, again, raised his image. It's horrible, but the guy was white and he was mentally ill. And so I will point down something really interesting, which is that 60% of the people killed accidentally or inappropriately through negligence by law enforcement, 60% are mentally ill.
所以这个消息很久以前就传出来了，但它是很重要的消息。关键情况是，那个人又提高了他的形象。很可怕，但那个人是白人，而且他有精神疾病。我要指出一个非常有趣的事实，就是60%被执法部门意外或因疏忽而误杀的人是精神疾病患者。
And I know this because I am a co-founder of a company that is building a device to help police. It's basically a non-level weapon to restrain people. It's to replace taser because taser kills too many people so they're not not on level anymore. So I've seen a lot of these videos, but I've learned that 60% of the people killed by the police are mentally ill.
我知道这个，因为我是一家正在建造一种可以帮助警察的设备的联合创始人。它基本上是一种非致命性武器，用于制服人们。它是用来代替泰瑟枪的，因为泰瑟枪杀死了太多的人，所以它们不再是一种不致命工具了。所以我看过很多这样的视频，但我学到的是60%被警察杀害的人是患有精神疾病的。
Some white, some black, but mentally ill is the defining thing. This guy had severe autism, couldn't respond correctly. And so they shot him. Instead, if they had wrapped him, by the way, Andrew Yang to his credit on Friday, he tweeted out the gun, not the gun, but the weapon, the device we created and said police need to start logging at this because it wraps around you and it doesn't hurt.
有些人是白人，有些人是黑人，但精神病是他们的特征。这个家伙严重自闭，无法正确回应。结果他们射杀了他。如果他们用包裹把他包起来，显然会更好。值得一提的是，安德鲁·杨在上周五推特上指出了我们创建的武器设备，然后呼吁警方开始记录它，因为它可以缠绕你并且不会造成伤害，这是值得称赞的。
I've been wrapped. You've been wrapped. It doesn't hurt.
我被包裹了。你也被包裹了。不会疼。
I just spit on you, by the way. You're probably going to get coronavirus. I need to like, I need to hide. Was that a viral load? I did hope. I've got to have you viral load. Oh, yeah. Look at all the new vocabulary words. We've got viral loads, viral shedding, R-N-U-T, P-P-P.
我刚才吐口水在你身上，顺便说一下。你可能会得冠状病毒。我需要隐藏起来。那是病毒载量吗？我是真的希望有。我得要你的病毒载量。哦，是的。看看所有这些新词汇。我们有病毒载量、病毒排放、R-N-U-T、P-P-P。
By the way, speaking of PPP and copper and health, the number one trending kickstarter project right now, as I was with a few days ago, was about an extra hygiene brass doorknob made out of copper.
顺便说一下，谈到PPP、铜和健康，现在最热门的Kickstarter项目，就在我几天前，是一个由铜制成的额外卫生的黄铜门把手。
So people are on to it. The copper thing. Copper doorknob. Yeah.
所以人们知道了。是铜制的那个。铜门把手。是的。
Just looking at the copper pajamas, 43rd day in a row wearing pajamas. No one even asks. No one says, oh, what are you doing? Are you insane? I wore it on the plane. War to the keep of skiing. Yacht club yesterday. We're not allowed in, but we had friends who let us in because they don't like juice. No, just kidding. Just kidding. Don't worry. I don't want to insult anyway. They love juice.
只是看一看那件铜色睡衣，这是我连续第43天穿着它了。没人问我，没人说：“哦，你在做什么？你疯了吗？”我甚至在飞机上也穿着它。昨天去滑雪保卫战俱乐部，我们不被允许进去，但我们有些朋友让我们进去了，因为他们不喜欢果汁。开个玩笑，别担心，我不想侮辱任何人。他们可是喜欢果汁的。
This is like people. So somebody asked though on community because Andrew Yang tweeted about this and I've wanted an interview, Andrew Yang. And I reached out to him.
这就好像人们一样。有人在社区里问了一些关于安德鲁·杨的问题，因为他发了一条推特，我也想采访他。于是我联系了他。
Why do I have to have Andrew Yang on? The answer is I don't know.
为什么我必须邀请Andrew Yang上节目呢？答案是我不知道。
He actually agreed to come on many months ago and then I never heard from him again. I would love to interview Andrew Yang. I do think, you be I, universal basic income, it's not a Democrat or a Republican issue, no matter how you try to make it.
他其实几个月前就同意来参加采访，然后我再也没有收到他的消息了。我很想采访安德鲁·杨。我认为，无论你是民主党人还是共和党人，实行全民基本收入都不是一个党派问题，无论如何你都无法抹杀这一点。
UBI right now is the most important stimulus package you could do.
现在实行普遍基本收入是你可以采取的最为重要的刺激方案。
I spoke with Congressman Tim Ryan about this. He's a very great, he's a good Congressman from Ohio, Democrat, but you couldn't tell from his issues. He actually opposed Nancy Pelosi for the speakership job. He lost that race, but he's an up and coming Congressman.
我和国会议员蒂姆·瑞恩谈过这个问题。他是俄亥俄州优秀的民主党国会议员，但从他所谈的议题中无法看出来。实际上，他反对南希·佩洛西争取演讲者职位。他虽然败了，但是他是一位新晋国会议员。
He's in favor of a UBI. Started off, try a three month UBI, try a six month UBI. I wrote to Larry Kudlow, who's the National Economics Advisor, a Republican. And I suggested, look, just try this short term because direct stimulus to people is how you will spike the economy.
他支持全民基本收入。 起初，尝试三个月的全民基本收入，再尝试六个月的全民基本收入。 我给拉里·库德洛写信了，他是一位共和党全国经济顾问。 我建议，尝试短期的全民基本收入，因为直接向人们提供刺激是您刺激经济的方法。
Don't just give it to hotel chains or airlines. The airlines are just going to go out of business anyway. Give it to people who need the money and it will be spent.
不要把钱只给酒店连锁店或航空公司。因为那些航空公司最终仍会破产。把钱给那些需要的人，这样钱才会流通。
You don't have to worry about whether they have incentives to work. So I would love to talk to Andrew Yang about UBI law enforcement reforms. Automations happening now faster than he could have possibly predicted.
你不必担心他们是否有动力工作。所以我愿意与安德鲁·杨就全民基本收入和执法改革进行讨论。自动化正在以他难以预测的速度发生。
So I would love to talk to him about automation and his current concerns because right now society is in favor of automation because it's more hygienic.
我很想和他谈论自动化和他目前的担忧，因为现在社会对自动化比较青睐，因为它更加卫生。
You know, if you have robots, disinfect surfaces, if you have robots doing surgeries, if you have drones doing deliveries. So automation is not a bad thing and I am in favor of a UBI, but there's nuances.
你要知道，如果你有机器人，可以消毒表面；如果你有机器人做手术，或者有无人机送货。所以自动化并不是一件坏事，我支持普遍基本收入，但其中还有很多细微的问题。
So I'd love to talk to him about this stuff.
我很想跟他聊聊这个东西。
Here's my ideal ticket. Like I don't give a shit about the parties. And you know, Trump, Biden, like, first off, nobody really likes Biden and people seem to either love or hate Trump.
这是我的理想选票。就像我不在乎那些派对一样。而且，你知道，特朗普、拜登，首先，没有人真的喜欢拜登，人们似乎要么喜欢要么讨厌特朗普。
And so whatever, let's think about 2024. Here's my ideal ticket. And I'm curious about where Dan Crenshaw, Nikki Haley for the Republicans. Dan Crenshaw's like, I have to match. Seems like such a common sense guy.
那么，无论如何，让我们考虑一下2024年。这是我的理想选票。我很好奇丹·克伦肖和尼基·黑利会在共和党中处于何种位置。丹·克伦肖就像是一个很有常识的人，我必须得认同。
And Nikki Haley is the, you like her. And on the Democrats side, Andrew Yang, and I don't know, maybe Tim Ryan. I got to like Tim Ryan. That's my ideal ticket.
而尼基·海莉是你喜欢的人选。在民主党这一方面，安德鲁·杨和我不知道，也许是蒂姆·瑞恩。我很喜欢蒂姆·瑞恩。那是我理想的选票。
And by the way, for the libertarians, I don't know much about Joe Jorgensen, although I'm trying to get around the podcast. She's the presidential nominee. Spike Cohen. I love that name, Spike Cohen. He's like a hard, he's like Jewish with a Cohen, but Spike, he's like, somehow he's going to kick your ass. Meanwhile, he's like, he's also immunosuppressed. He's the VP candidate for Libertarian Party. So he's been locked down because of his immune system. He's got multiple, what is it, sclerosis? But he's been on my podcast. Super smart guy. I highly recommend it.
顺便说一句，对于自由主义者来说，我对乔·乔根森（Joe Jorgensen）并不了解，虽然我正在努力聆听播客。她是总统提名人。斯派克·科恩（Spike Cohen）。我喜欢这个名字，斯派克·科恩。他像一个凶猛的犹太人，而且带有科恩的姓氏，但斯派克，他似乎会踢你的屁股。与此同时，他也有免疫抑制问题。他是自由党的副总统候选人。因为他的免疫系统问题，他一直处于封锁状态。他有多种硬化症吗？但是他曾经参加过我的播客。他非常聪明。我强烈推荐。
People don't realize that a lot of the Democrat ideas right now come from the Libertarian Party. Deep on the police comes from the Libertarian Party. And it doesn't mean no police. I love people looking up, but just get rid of the police that just give you driving tickets for no reason or the police that are just there to file your insurance claims or whatever. Like, just keep the police that solve crimes and handle domestic violence and stuff like that. That's all they're saying.
很多人不明白，现在许多民主党的想法都来自自由党。深层警务改革就是自由党的想法。但这并不意味着没有警察。我喜欢人们高瞻远瞩，但只是要摆脱那些无缘无故给你开罚单的警察或是那些只在为你处理保险索赔等事宜的警察。就只保留能解决犯罪和处理家庭暴力等事情的警察。这就是他们的想法。
Anyway. I like to just take a picture of you like when you're driving and you do something wrong, they just take a picture and like, I don't know, they send you a ticket. Yeah. You know my photos I have of me like speeding right through a red light. I can make a whole like Facebook album of that. Like I should make like a poster or something and hang it up. Like, oh, I look really bad in that one. Like, oh, I should have crushed my hair before going through that red light.
不管怎样，我喜欢拍你开车时犯错误的样子。他们拍照后会把罚单寄给你。你知道的，我有许多超速通过红灯的照片，我可以把它们放到Facebook相册里，或者做成海报挂到墙上。有些照片我看起来真的很糟糕，如果我之前看看镜子再冲过那个红灯就好了。
So this was, but this was the actual BS headline of the day. Pilgrims pride, which is like the biggest maker of chicken nuggets in the world. Pilgrims pride recalled 60,000 pounds of chicken nuggets today. 60,000 pounds. Why did they do that? They said there was, they found there was too much flexible rubber in the products. What the heck? Why they're flexible rubber? Huh? China? China. Yeah. You, okay, yeah, probably China. I do think that's correct actually. I do think they make it in China and it's packaged here. No, the did put melanin in the melt there. So when we were there, somebody is putting flexible, first of all, isn't all rubber flexible? Like why do they have to mention it's like is non flexible rubber? Okay. Like if the rubber is too flexible in the chicken nuggets, why did they mention the word flexible?
这是今天的真正假新闻标题。Pilgrims pride是世界上最大的鸡块生产商。他们今天召回了60,000磅的鸡块。为什么呢？他们发现产品中有太多的柔性橡胶。到底怎么回事？是中国造吗？我觉得可能是。他们在中国制造，但在美国包装。他们也在那里放了黑素。但是，如果橡胶太柔软，为什么要用"柔性"这个词呢？难道还有"非柔性"的橡胶？
And that's the oddest thing to put out in this press release. There's too much, what they could have just said, there's too much rubber and I've been like, that's disgusting. Too much flexible. What can they just say? There's just rubber. That's too much. Is that too much? Yeah, right. Yeah, there's too much. They could have just said there's rubber. Right. Please return. There's this too much of it. And by the way, we still would have made fun of it. But the fact that they had to say, look, it's the rubber flexible. Just avoid these packages have regular rubber. These packages, the rubber is too flexible. What does that mean? Like you're not going to be able to shit it out or something? Like, it's gross.
那是新闻发布会上最奇怪的事情。他们本可以只说：“有太多橡胶了，这太恶心了。”但他们说了，“橡胶太柔软了。”为什么不就说：“橡胶太多了。”这不是太简单了吗？对吧，有太多橡胶了。他们本可以说：“这里有橡胶，请退回。”但他们非要强调这些包装里的橡胶太柔软了。这是什么意思？难道无法排泄吗？太恶心了。
It is gross. Like, it's another thing. And so that was the BSL out of the day. And I'll just, because I've been skipping lately, I'll do the. I said this before, but I remember when we lived in China, they died the pork red so that. and then they would sell it as beef, especially to the wigars in the northern. Yeah. Which are muslim. So it's known. And the only pork. So they would do that. The Chinese would actually do that. And they've been doing it for years and they got caught while we were there.
这太恶心了。就像是另一回事一样。那就是今天的BSL了。因为我最近一直跳过，所以我会补一下。我之前说过，当我们住在中国的时候，他们把猪肉染成红色然后卖成牛肉，特别是卖给北方的维吾尔族穆斯林。是的，他们只吃猪肉。中国人一直这样做，而我们在那里的时候他们被抓住了。
By the way, I used to have a domain name, Jews who love pork.com. I think it's. The pork is like a gift from God. And unfortunately for the two. These two major religions in the world, Islam and Judaism. They. they more. The about members of these religions do not eat bacon, they're lost. But. Yeah. It would be horrible. I would tell. I would be able to tell if someone died my bacon red. It was really bacon. It was really horrible. Like, Turkey bacon is the worst. Um. It just shows you where there are more compasses. That's not terrible. I. It's just. All 1.2 billion people. So.
顺便说一句，我曾经有一个域名，Jews who love pork.com。我认为猪肉是上帝的礼物。可惜的是，世界上两大主要宗教——伊斯兰教和犹太教禁食猪肉。这些宗教的成员不吃熏肉，他们是失落的。但是，是的。这将是可怕的。如果有人把我的熏肉染成红色，我能看得出来。这是真的熏肉。真的很可怕。像火鸡熏肉是最糟糕的。嗯。这只是显示了道德标准的不同。这不是可怕的。我认为在12亿人中有所有。所以。
Okay. Another question. Um. oh, just what. there's Andrew Yang on what kind of things. You'd still don't agree with him? I actually agree with Andrew Yang on lots of things and I think he's a smart guy. I just want to talk to him about automation.
好的，又有一个问题。嗯，噢，就是什么。有关Andrew Yang的问题，你还是不同意他吗？实际上，我同意Andrew Yang很多观点，我觉得他是个聪明的人。我只是想和他谈谈自动化的问题。
So. Uh. Let's see. This is a great question because a lot of business people go through this or writers go through this, artists go through this, parents go through this, teachers go through this, someone asked me, Hi James, how can someone disrupt the patterns in their head that tell them that the business idea they have has already been done? These thoughts keep playing in my head and are keeping me from moving forward.
嗯，让我看看。这是一个非常好的问题，因为许多商人、作家、艺术家、父母和老师都会经历这种情况。有人问我，嗨，詹姆斯，一个人如何打破头脑中告诉他，他们的商业创意已经被做过的模式？这些想法一直在我脑海中盘旋，阻止我向前迈进。
So by the way, it's a really interesting question. So let me summarize the question. How do you tell if an idea is a good idea? What's interesting to me is that he used two or three sentences to ask that question. So it's almost like, yeah, he said, how can someone disrupt the patterns of their head that tell them? So it's almost like he's worried, like maybe the idea is good but his psychology is somehow obsessively thinking his idea is bad so he's not able to get through the psychology to see if the idea is good.
顺带一提，这是一个非常有趣的问题。让我总结一下这个问题。你怎样才能知道一个想法是否是好想法？对我来说有趣的是他用了两三句话来问这个问题。所以有点像，他说，怎么才能打破自己头脑中的模式，去判断自己的想法呢？好像他担心，也许这个想法很好，但是他的心理状况让他着迷地认为这个想法不好，因此他无法通过心理障碍去看清这个想法是否好。
So fine. And he also says, not whether the idea is good, whether the idea has already been done. Which is a good sign to me if it's already been done and it's successful. Yeah, if an idea has been done and you can improve it, that's. I think. Yeah. And then. So it seems like the wrong question. Like, you can Google if an idea has been done.
非常好。他还说，不是思路好不好，而是这个思路是否已经被实现过。如果已经被实现过且获得成功，那对我来说很不错。如果一个思路已经被实现过，你却能够改进它，我觉得那就非常好。然后，这个问题似乎不正确。你可以在谷歌上搜索一下，这个思路是否已经被实现过。
Like, if I want to make an electric car, I'll Google electric cars and I'll see Tesla. If I want to make an electric bike, I'll Google electric bikes. If I want to make electric flossing on my teeth, I'll Google that. And by the way, that's also a trending project on Kickstarter. If I want to Google, so the person who asked earlier, what business ideas can help connect people who are alone or locked down? If I want to Google, oh, here's an idea. Sex-related subscription crates. So every month, you get a new box in the mail that has all these sexual toys for you and your wife or whatever.
如果我想制造一辆电动汽车，我会在谷歌上搜索电动汽车然后看到特斯拉。如果我想制造电动自行车，我就会谷歌电动自行车。如果我想在我的牙齿上使用电动牙线，我也会谷歌这个。顺便说一句，这也是Kickstarter上一个热门项目。如果我想谷歌先前提问的人关于帮助孤独或被隔离的人之间联系的商业想法，我会得到一个想法。与性相关的订阅盒子。所以每个月，你会在邮件中收到一个新的盒子，里面有所有这些性玩具，供你和你的妻子使用。
I can Google it and I did. And it turns out, it's a huge trending item on Google right now. And B, there's all sorts of stuff. But I can't find my. Oh, here it is. There's the big O-box. There's the mystery pleasure box. There's the love drop. There's seductive pleasure. There's novel erotics. There's king crate. So you can just Google things. So that's not really the question. The real question is, how do you validate a good idea?
我可以用谷歌搜索，我也确实这样做了。结果显示，有一件非常流行的物品正在谷歌上热搜。还有各种各样的其他物品。但是我找不到我想要的。哦，我找到了。有一个大O盒子，有一个神秘的愉悦盒子，有一个爱之滴，还有具有诱惑性的愉悦、小说情色、王者箱等等。所以你可以通过谷歌搜索到各种内容。所以这不是真正的问题。真正的问题是如何验证一个好的想法？
And the way I can validate a good idea is by asking people. There's several ways. And so I'll go through some of the ways. One is, I can simply ask people, do you need this? If I make this, will you buy it? So for instance, if I say, if I told you, look, here's a couple of things right now. We're in this total lockdown period that might last for years for all we know, it's semi-lockdown whatever.
我验证好点子的方法之一是问问人们。有好几种方法。我来列举一些。首先，我可以直接问人们：“你需要这个吗？如果我做这个，你会买吗？”例如，如果我这样告诉你：“现在我们处于完全封锁的时期，可能会持续数年，或者是部分封锁，你会买这个吗？
If I told you, what if I could make you super comfortable clothes that will also protect you maybe from getting bacteria and maybe from getting viruses, maybe from getting cold, well, pajamas are the most comfortable clothes. So what if I told you I can make pajamas that look like outerwear but are actually pajamas. So what's great is I can just come into the house and just go into the bed and I'm asleep. I don't have to change my clothes or anything. And then I can just wake up and go to the computer and go on IG like, and I can have nice designs. And what if I could told you all, I can infuse them with copper. And there's a lot of evidence that copper is antimicrobial, antibacteria, antibiral.
如果我告诉你，如果我能制作出既舒适、又能保护你免受病菌和病毒侵袭、免受寒冷侵袭的衣物，那会怎么样呢？睡衣是最舒适的衣物。那么，如果我告诉你我可以做出外衣却实际上是睡衣的睡衣，那就太好了。那么我就可以直接进入房间，躺在床上睡觉了。我不需要换衣服或做任何事情。然后我可以醒来，去电脑上上IG，还可以有漂亮的设计。如果我告诉你，我可以加上铜元素，这样它们就有抗菌、抗病毒的功效，你会怎么想呢？
That's why the brass door knob is trending on Kickstarter. And then I can say, would you buy it? If I just gave it to you for free, would you wear it? And then I can learn. You would say yes. Here's another way. What if I create the first version of this product for men and women? And I put it on Kickstarter. So on Kickstarter, I can say I'm raising $100,000. I'm going to make a whole line of this. And then Kickstarter, you give incentives. Oh, if you give $10, you get a one pair.
这就是为什么黄铜门把手在Kickstarter上很受欢迎。那么我可以问你，你会购买吗？如果我免费送给你，你会戴吗？这样我就可以学到一些东西。你会说“是的”。还有另一种方法，如果我为男女创造这个产品的第一个版本呢？我把它放在Kickstarter上。所以在Kickstarter上，我可以说我要筹集10万美元。我会制作一整套。Kickstarter会提供激励措施。哦，如果你捐了10美元，就可以得到一对。
If you get, or you get socks, if you do $50, you get one pair. If you do $100, you get $12 pairs. If you do $1,000, I'll give you pairs every year for the rest of your life or whatever. And you Kickstarter is not only a good way to raise money, but it's a good way to validate your idea. People will see a working version of the product of your idea and they're willing to put money in. And they're your first customers. They're your strongest customer base.
如果你购买了袜子，或者你支付了50美元，你会得到一双袜子。如果你支付了100美元，你会得到12双袜子。如果你支付了1000美元，我会为你的余生每年送你一些袜子，等等。Kickstarter不仅是筹集资金的好方法，还是验证你的想法的好方法。人们能看到你想法的产品的工作版本，他们愿意投入资金。他们是你的第一批客户，也是你最强大的客户基础。
So Kickstarter and other IndieGoGo, these are great ways to validate ideas. Another way is I can get a Facebook ad for just $20. And I can target, let's say I'm making a game for people who like Star Wars. It's going to do cards against humanity, but it's going to be the dark side of the forest versus humanity. Or whatever, or Yoda versus humanity. And so I can target people, young people who like Star Wars, and I'm going to sell in this game, Yoda versus humanity. And you can see them, or let's say I'm going to make the game, we were talking about this even Trump versus humanity. And you target people like Biden and you see if they click on the ad. And that's another way. If a lot of people click on the ad, you know you have some interest. So you can sell. So there's all these different ways.
Kickstarter和其他IndieGoGo都是验证想法的好方法。另一种方式是我只需支付20美元就能得到Facebook广告。 我可以选择定位人群，比如我正在为喜欢星球大战的人制作一个游戏。它会像Cards Against Humanity一样，但会是森林黑暗面与人类对战，或者是尤达与人类对战等等。 这样我就可以定位喜欢星球大战的年轻人，然后销售这个游戏。 你可以看到他们的反应，或者我要制作的游戏是特朗普对抗人性。你可以定位像拜登这样的人，然后观察他们是否点击广告。这也是另一种方式。如果许多人点击广告，你就知道有一些兴趣。所以有很多不同的方法。
When I was starting one company, my first company recently made websites, we just asked around to every local business, do you need a website? And would you be willing to pay? Our first customer was a diamond dealer, small guy. We did a website for him for $35,000. And boom, I had more money than I had ever had in my life. But we simply asked around. And then he spread the word about us. Other people spread the word. We had work to show. Suddenly, word of mouth went around. And boom, we had a business.
当我还在创办第一家公司的时候，我最近做了一些网站。我们只是向每个当地企业打听，你需要一个网站吗？你愿意付费吗？我们的第一个客户是一位小型钻石经销商。我们为他制作了一个网站，价值35,000美元。然后，我有了比以往任何时候都多的钱。但我们只是简单地询问而已。然后他传开了我们的名声。其他人也开始散布消息。我们有了展示作品。突然间，口口相传。于是我们有了一个业务。
For another business, I made this sort of business. I wanted. I made an investment website with no news. Just information about stocks and best investors and ways to communicate. It was like a quora for investing. So I knew it was a good idea because I needed this website. So that was another way to validate the idea, which you never really see in all these articles about validating ideas, make the business that you would use.
我为另一家公司做了这样的业务，我想做一个投资网站，没有新闻，只是有关股票、最佳投资者和交流方式的信息。这就像一个投资版的 Quora。我知道这是个好主意，因为我需要这个网站。这是另一种验证想法的方式，你在所有这些关于验证想法的文章中真正看不到的方法：做你自己会用的业务。
So, you know, and then with this wrap gun that I was just mentioning, the non-lethal restraining device, we knew we talked to 100 police officers and police chiefs from all around the world, not just the US. I think they just announced today, 28,000 orders from Indonesia. So we knew that the police would be interested in this device. So we did that so thoroughly. We just asked every police department, would you be interested in the device? 100% said yes. So if you just ask people, you know there's an urgent problem. This is part of the cock rating. There's an urgent problem, which is that this was in 2016. There was an urgent problem, which is that I think it was the Eric Garner had just been killed. And again, not only was there an urgent problem because of the brutality and the killing and the murder, but it was all cities don't want to do it because they get sued and so it cost them billions of dollars. So we knew it was an urgent problem. We knew this was a useful solution because there was no device that was not lethal. Taser kills one or two people a week. We knew that it was ultra specific, like I'm using all the techniques from cock rating, to validate this idea. It was ultra specific because here's how it works and I'll show you a video of how it works. We knew that it was user friendly. You just have to press a button and there's a little laser so it tells you where you're shooting. So it was user friendly. I always forget what all the users are, but we have whatever it is. We have unquestionable proof because we've wrapped hundreds of thousands of people now, we did a million tests with all sorts of subjects, people running, people running at you, people running away, people running side to side, people waving their arms. And now every day police departments call us and say you just saved another life. So we have unquestionable proof. So that's how you validate an idea.
所以，你知道，我刚才提到的这个拉伸枪，非致命的约束装置，我们与来自世界各地的100名警察和警察局长进行了交谈，不仅仅是美国。我想他们今天刚刚宣布，来自印度尼西亚的订单已经有28,000份了。因此，我们知道警方会对此设备感兴趣。所以我们非常彻底地进行了研究。我们向所有警察局询问，是否会对此设备感兴趣，100%都回答是。因此，如果你问人们，你就知道这是一个紧迫的问题。这是核心排名的一部分。存在一个紧迫问题，这是因为在2016年，我认为埃里克·加纳刚刚被杀害。再次，不仅仅是因为暴力和杀戮以及谋杀的问题极为紧急，因为所有城市都不想这样做，因为他们会被起诉，这将花费他们数十亿美元。所以，我们知道这是一个紧急的问题。我们知道这是一个有用的解决方案，因为没有非致命的装置。电击枪每周杀死一两个人。我们知道它非常具体，就像我正在使用核心排名的所有技术来验证这个想法一样。它非常具体，因为这就是它的工作原理，我会向你展示它的工作视频。我们知道它很容易使用。您只需要按下按钮，有一个小的激光，告诉您您在射击哪里。因此，它很易于使用。我总是忘记所有用户是谁，但是我们拥有这个。我们有无可置疑的证据，因为我们现在已经捆绑了数十万人，我们与各种被试做了100万次测试，其中包括奔跑的人，向您奔跑的人，逃跑的人，左右奔跑的人，挥动手臂的人。现在每天警察局都会给我们打电话，说你又拯救了一条生命。因此，这就是验证一个想法的方法。
Let's get to something a little bit on the fun side. I was talking to one of our daughters. We have two daughters graduating and two other daughters trying to figure out what to do this next year. One of my daughters, one of our daughters, to her credit, a year before this all started, she dropped out of college. She worked to be an actress and I kept telling her, okay, fine, go to college, but are you going to get more experience acting in your shitty little drama department at Dickinson College or if you moved to New York City where there's Broadway. Now unfortunately, Broadway's closed down for the year, but she's thinking of side hustles and things she could do. So I'll just tell you what I'm telling her to debt literally today.
让我们来谈一些有趣的事情吧。我在和我们其中一位女儿交谈。我们有两个女儿即将毕业，另外两个女儿还在考虑明年要做什么。其中一位女儿，也是我们的女儿，值得赞扬的是，在这一切开始之前的一年她就退学了。她努力想成为一名演员，而我一直告诉她，好的，去上大学，但是你是否会在迪金森学院肤浅的戏剧部门中获得更多演戏经验呢？相比之下，如果你搬到纽约，在那里有百老汇演出。不幸的是，百老汇今年关闭了，但她正在考虑一些兼职和其它可做的事情。所以我今天就跟她说了我告诉她的话。
So because everybody always lists side hustles and I've done this too, but then when you start to look at it, like I was looking at one side hustle where you use her test websites that are being built and you make like a dollar an hour who wants to do that.
因为每个人总是列出副业，我也这样做了，但当你开始看它时，比如我在看一个副业，你使用正在建造的测试网站，每小时只能赚一美元，谁想要这样做呢。
So you were telling one of your daughters get a real estate license, which is a great idea now that one part of the country is living up and moving to another part of the country right now. And so we'll see if she does that, but that it's not a side hustle, but it's a good idea.
那么你说让你的一个女儿拿到房地产执照，这是个好主意，因为现在有些地区的人们在搬家，有些地区的房价正在上涨。我们会看看她是否会这么做，但这不是什么副业，而是一个好主意。
The contact tracing is a job, you know, every city in the United States is hiring tens of that. I think New York State is hiring like 100,000 contact tracers, Washington DC alone. It's hiring like 250,000 contact tracers. So those are the people who if you got the virus, they will interview you and then contact everybody who's been in touch with you and get them to test for the virus and quarantine and so on.
你知道吗，接触追踪是一项工作。每个美国的城市都在雇佣数十个接触追踪人员。我想纽约州正在雇佣大约100,000名接触追踪者，华盛顿特区单独就要雇佣约250,000名接触追踪者。所以这些人是如果你感染了病毒，他们会采访你，然后联系你接触过的所有人以测试病毒并隔离等等。
So contact tracing, by the way, is a job you could do from home and it pays between 30 and 16,000 dollars a year.
顺便提一句，接触者追踪是一份可以在家里做的工作，年薪在30到16,000美元之间。
Great for a kid who's 20 years old and is not going to college and wants to pursue acting. She could do it from home. I did warn her though, the danger and I'm going to warn you, you, you, you, you, the danger of contact tracing is that it's the first step into 1984 world.
这对一个20岁的孩子来说非常棒，如果她不想上大学而想追求表演事业，她可以在家里做到。我确实警告过她，同时我也要提醒你们，你们，你们，你们，你们，接触追踪的危险是它是进入1984年世界的第一步。
So if you have an iPhone, for instance, you have recently downloaded software without your awareness, you have recently downloaded software that allows Apple to do contact tracing. So if Robin has coronavirus and I happen to walk past her and then she, they find out a day later, she has coronavirus, they could see through the cell phone towers and GPS and stuff, who are all the people who walked near her and oh, who is this guy James Altatur?
如果你有 iPhone，例如最近你不知情地下载了软件，你最近下载了允许 Apple 进行接触追踪的软件。如果 Robin 患有冠状病毒，我碰巧经过她的身边，然后发现她的病情，他们可以通过手机塔和 GPS 等东西看到所有接近她的人，包括这个叫 James Altatur 的人是谁。
Let's put him in the database. Okay, contact tracer, make sure, visit his house and make sure he takes a cro, an at home coronavirus test. Oh, he has it. Make sure he's quarantined. Oh, he doesn't want to quarantine. Well, he has to quarantine. So you take it, we'll send the police, we'll take them to this quarantine facility and boom.
咱们把他放进数据库里吧。好的，联系追踪员，去他家里确保他进行一次在家新冠病毒测试。哦，他得了病毒。确保他被隔离。哦，他不想被隔离。好吧，他必须隔离。那你来处理吧，我们会派警察带他去隔离中心，瞬间搞定。
So con contact tracing and maybe you can argue, this is a good thing. Maybe you can argue, well, look, we need to lock down these people, they need to care about society.
因此，进行接触者追踪可能是一件好事。也许您可以说，我们需要封锁这些人，让他们关心社会。
Okay, fine. But what about the next level is she says something bad about Donald Trump or Joe Biden. Oh, who was standing next to her within 10 feet of her when she said that because we can, the phone can hear everything we say, right? Alexa can hear everything you say. Who was near her? Let's find out. Well, she had a rally. Who was near her? Oh, this guy James was near her, called James up and until we figure out what his political situation is, we need to quarantine him also and we're not telling him why.
好的，没问题。但是，如果她说了唐纳德·特朗普或乔·拜登的坏话，那下一个问题是谁在她10英尺以内站着。因为我们知道，电话可以听到我们说的一切，对吧？Alexa可以听到你说的一切。谁在她附近？让我们找出来。她有一个集会。谁在她身边？哦，这个叫James的家伙在她身边，我们需要给他隔离，直到我们弄清楚他的政治状况，我们不会告诉他原因。
So this starts to get into 1984 or minority report. Like I'm not against the idea of contact tracing, but be very, contact trace with the Spanish flow. But now that the technology is there to have so much more control over our lives.
所以这开始变成了《1984》或《少数派报告》。就像我不反对接触追踪的想法，但要非常小心，接触追踪需要遵循西班牙流感标准。但现在科技已经可以在我们的生活中拥有更多的控制力。
Like, for instance, they could say, James, you don't want to quarantine. Well, guess what? We just shut your phone down. Guess what? We just turned off your email account. Guess what? We just froze your bank account. Now you have to quarantine until we decide you can get you let out. So I think the tech, the scariest, what someone says, we are in 1984 in the USSR or whatever.
比如，他们可以说，詹姆斯，你不想隔离。好吧，你知道吗？我们刚刚关闭了你的手机。你知道吗？我们刚刚关闭了你的电子邮件账户。你知道吗？我们刚刚冻结了你的银行账户。现在你必须隔离，直到我们决定你可以出来为止。所以我认为科技是最可怕的，有人说我们正在像苏联的1984年那样。
We already have the US right now has the technology for even a better 1984 than 1984. So it's a dangerous weapon that our leaders now have their hands on and we just have to hope that they're responsible and that they can do this.
我们已经有了比《1984》更好的技术，而美国目前拥有这种技术。因此，这是一种危险的武器，我们的领导者现在手头也拥有它，我们只能希望他们负责并能够控制好它。
And you know, everyone says Trump is fascist or Biden is fascist or whatever. Let's just hope it's just talk and then it's not really true that they're just trying to win an election and then so they can continue making billions of dollars and ripping off the American people.
你知道，每个人都说特朗普是法西斯主义者或拜登是法西斯主义者之类的。让我们希望这只是说说而已，而不是真的他们只是想赢得选举，继续赚取数十亿美元，并欺骗美国人民。
I'm fine with that. That's what presidents have always done. There's no secret that the that every president like the Obama family is worth 200 million dollars now. The Clintons are worth 200 million. They're probably billionaires. The bushes are billionaires and all they did was go into politics. So I don't care. Let them make all their money. Let them be corrupt.
我不介意。这正是总统们一直在做的事情。毫无秘密，像奥巴马一家这样的总统现在价值两亿美元。克林顿家族价值两亿美元，他们可能是亿万富翁。布什家族是亿万富翁，他们所做的只是进入政界。所以我不在乎。让他们赚所有的钱。让他们腐败。
I just don't want them escalating into 1984. And that's what I'm really that's the only thing that really scares me right now. And it's really the dictator. It's not like the individual doing it, but it's the party that's doing it.
我只是不想让它们升级成为《1984》，这是我现在真正担心的事情。而且，让我最害怕的不是个人，而是那个独裁者，是那个政党在干这件事。
Yes. You know what I mean? It's like we our presence can only go like four years or eight years at the most. So you know, they can come and go. So we don't have a dictator. But I believe it's sort of starting to be like the party is the dictator. Yeah.
是的，你知道我的意思吗？就像我们的存在只能最多持续四年或八年一样。所以，他们可以来来去去。所以我们没有独裁者。但我相信，现在这个党就像独裁者一样。是的。
Does that make sense? Yeah, because look, we all know like we all know anyway that Biden, you know, sadly both of them, if they whoever gets elected might not live one term. So their choice of vice president is really important. By the way, I'm betting on Val Demings, but I no longer think she's a get it. I think Tammy Duckworth, the center of Illinois will probably be that BP choice. I should probably bet on her as well. But yeah, I don't think anybody cares who's president. I think they care how much they can control.
这是否有道理? 是的，因为你知道，我们都知道，拜登和其他人被选中后可能无法完成一任期。所以他们副总统的选择非常重要。顺便说一下，我打赌Val Demings会当选，但我不再认为她会成功。我认为伊利诺伊州的Tammy Duckworth可能成为副总统的选择。我也应该打赌她。但是，我认为没有人在乎谁是总统。我认为他们在乎他们能掌控多少。
So okay. So anyway, real estate license. I'm also telling my daughter, everybody in New York City is leaving all the major cities. New York City, Chicago, Illinois, I sorry, Chicago, San Francisco, LA, everybody's leaving. Everybody I talked to is moving out or having a summer home or we're getting an Airbnb in Austin. I just I've spoke to three people today who are going to Austin. So they're going to have homes that are empty for a while in New York City or LA or San Francisco. Where do they get to do with those homes? They're going to Airbnb them. So I told our daughter start look start contacting the recent listings on Airbnb and tell them you'll manage the air. What when they move to Puerto Rico and they to get no federal taxes and they can't come back to New York State for 186 days, they need someone to manage the Airbnb for them. So start advertising your services. Manage the Airbnb. You let gas in, you clean the place up and you get paid a good amount of money for that. So that's another thing.
好的。话说回来，房地产执照。我还告诉我的女儿，纽约市的每个人都正在离开所有主要城市。纽约市，伊利诺伊州的芝加哥，对不起，芝加哥，旧金山，洛杉矶，每个人都在离开。我和每个人谈话的人都在搬出去，或者有一个夏季的住所，或者我们在奥斯丁租了一个Airbnb。我今天和三个人谈话，他们要去奥斯汀。所以他们将在纽约市或洛杉矶或旧金山有一段时间空置的房屋。他们用这些房子做什么？他们将把它们放到Airbnb上。所以我告诉我们的女儿开始联系Airbnb上的最新列表，并告诉他们你将管理Airbnb。当他们搬到波多黎各，他们不需要缴纳联邦税，并且不能在186天内回到纽约州时，他们需要有人为他们管理Airbnb。所以开始广告你的服务。管理Airbnb。你让煤气进去，你清理屋子，你会得到很好的报酬。所以这是另一件事情。
I'm telling you also look at flip a dot com find an e-commerce site that makes a little bit of money that you're an expert in an area or an expert in that you think you can improve and that's for sale for a cheap price. I'll lend you the money to buy an e-commerce site and then you'll pay me back out of the profits and that's a that's a legit side hustle idea or you know I we talked about the sexual subscription boxes. Okay, if I needed to set up a subscription box like to that, let's say I want to go in the subscription box business like the ppp subscription box business. You get new disinfectants every month. You get new masks, you get new gloves, you get the new ultraviolet light. That's going to be a huge subscription box business.
我告诉你，还要看看flipadot.com，找一个你擅长领域或者你认为能改进的电子商务网站，它有一点点赚钱，可以出售的价钱很便宜。我会借钱给你买一个电子商务网站，然后你从利润中还给我。这是一个可靠的副业想法，或者我们可以提到性订阅盒。好的，如果我需要建立类似的订阅盒，比如说我想进入PPP订阅盒业务，每个月都会有新的消毒剂、口罩、手套和新的紫外线灯。这将成为一个巨大的订阅盒业务。
Well, I don't know how to I James I don't know how to set up a subscription box business like you have to get all the products and you have to get them cheaper than you're selling them all in this monthly subscription and then you have to package the box up and you have to send it. Learn how to do all those parts and then this is meta help people set up their own subscription box business. I think you can charge $10,000 per business you set up like that. So plus ongoing maintenance. So that's that's maybe the multi-million dollar business idea of the day actually. Here's another one. A friend of mine came to me with an idea that I thought was pretty good. You know, it was an idea for a store in a very specific niche and since he told me the idea I cannot share the idea but I thought it was very, very good. I did some research. I thought it was a good idea for an e-commerce store.
嗯，我不知道怎样像James一样搞一家订阅盒子生意，要选好所有的产品，并且要比卖出的价格便宜，然后每个月都要包装好一个盒子寄出去。要学会如何做这些，然后再帮助别人建立自己的订阅盒子生意。我觉得你可以收取每个这样建立的企业10,000美元，再加上持续维护。所以，这也许是今天的百万富翁商业创意。 还有一个点子，我朋友给我介绍了一个非常特定领域商店的想法。由于他告诉我不能透露这个想法，但我认为这是一个非常好的电子商务商店的想法，我进行了一些研究。
I went on to Shopify just to see how easy it is for him to set up a Shopify store because I figured if it's easy for me, it'll be easy for him. I got about halfway through and then suddenly Shopify wouldn't reload. It said come back later and then I hit reload. I hit reload and all the information got lost. So clearly it's not so easy to set up a store and Shopify is supposedly the easiest. So I said to our daughter, learn how to set up Shopify stores. Everybody's moving towards e-commerce. Then go to every local business that you could find in New York City and say, hey, I'll set up a beautifully designed Shopify store for you. Pay me $5,000 and I'll do it and I'll take her on it. Once she gets good, it'll take her two or three hours per store to do it.
我上了Shopify，只是想看看对于他来说，建立一个Shopify店铺有多容易，因为我想如果对我来说容易，对他来说也容易。我完成了一半，但突然间Shopify就无法重新加载了。它说等会儿再来，然后我点击了重新加载，结果所有信息都丢失了。所以显然，建立一个店铺不是那么容易，而且Shopify据说是最容易的。所以我对我们的女儿说，学习如何建立Shopify店铺。每个人都在朝着电子商务方向发展。然后去纽约市找到每一个当地的企业，并说，“嘿，我会为您建立一个设计精美的Shopify店铺。支付给我5000美元，我会把它做好，我会带着她一起去做的。一旦她熟练了，她每个店铺只需要两三个小时就能搞定。
These are real side hustles. Not the bullshit like, oh, I'm going to drive for Uber Eats. You make ten cents a mile driving for Uber Eats. It's not a good idea. So whenever you Google side hustles, there's all these bullshit side hustles. These are real ones. We'll start to make a living and you can make wealth. So, oh, and then our daughter is an artist or she likes to draw and I said, and she's even had people approach her like, hey, can you draw me? Can you draw this? Can you draw that?
这些是真实的副业。不是那种胡说八道的，比如，“我要为Uber Eats开车。” 你开车赚10美分一英里，这不是个好主意。所以，每当你谷歌搜索副业时，总会出现那些胡说八道的副业。这些是真正的副业。我们将开始赚钱，你可以创造财富。所以，然后我们的女儿是一位艺术家或者说她喜欢画画。我说，她甚至已经有人接近她，问她，“你能为我画画吗？你能画这个吗？你能画那个吗？”
And I said, you know, try doing some of your drawings on t-shirts and then set up a store on t-spray or Shopify. Again, we want to validate the idea. Do three shirts. Set it up on t-spray. Send it out to all put it on Instagram and send all your Facebook friends to see if you get any orders. Boom. It's a great way to validate an idea. So anyway, another question.
我说，你知道吗，可以把一些绘画画在T恤上，然后在T-spray或Shopify上开设店铺。再次强调，我们想要验证这个想法。做三件衣服，把它放在T-spray上。分享到Instagram上并让你所有的Facebook朋友看到，看看是否会有订单。咔嚓。这是验证一个想法的好方法。所以，另一个问题是什么？
So, that's a business question, but I will see if there's another question that's not business related. Oh, dear James, you are so damn productive. Thank you. Not as productive as you think. I spent the entire day yesterday playing poker online, much to her Shagrin. Did we go out last night? No, we went out last night before. Yeah. We went to dinner at the airport. Oh, we went out to dinner. Yeah, last night. Yeah, last night.
那么，这是一个商业问题，但我会看看是否有一个与商业无关的问题。哦，亲爱的詹姆斯，你是如此地高效。谢谢。并不像你想象的那样高效。我昨天整天都在网上玩扑克，让她感到十分失望。我们昨晚出去了吗？不，我们昨晚出去过了。是的。我们在机场吃了晚餐。哦，我们出去吃饭了。是的，昨晚。是的，昨晚。
Dear James, you're so damn productive. How do you manage your time? Do you map out your days in advance? What tools do you employ for time management? Thanks very much. You're helping me build wealth. I really appreciate it. It's named Jonathan.
亲爱的詹姆斯，你真的很高效。你是如何管理时间的？你会提前规划每一天吗？你用什么工具来管理时间？非常感谢你帮助我积累财富。我真的很感激。我的名字叫乔纳森。
Jonathan, thank you so much. Here's the key thing. A lot of people do to-do lists. I do not do a to-do list. I do have a calendar. I use Google Calendar. So, for instance, on my Google Calendar for today, the only thing that's there is 2 p.m. Instagram live Q&A with Robin. That was the only thing on my calendar today. Oh, maybe I had a phone call also. But then at any given moment, I have two choices. Like, let's say when this is over. I have two choices. I can either waste some time or a three choice. I can either waste some time. I can spend time with Robin, which is always a good choice. Or I could figure out what's the most important thing I have to do right now.
Jonathan，非常感谢。这是关键。很多人制作待办事项清单，但我不这样做。我有一个日历，使用的是Google日历。比如，今天我的Google日历上只有下午两点与Robin进行Instagram直播问答。这是今天日历上唯一的事情。或许我还有一个电话要打。但是，每个时刻，我都有两个选择。比如，这个会话结束后，我可以浪费时间，也可以和Robin共度美好时光，但也可以找出我现在必须做的最重要的事情。
Is there a phone call after return? Is there an article I have to write? Like, what am I- what is causing me some- a little bit of anxiety if I don't get this done? So, at any given point, I don't need a list. You don't need a list. At any given point, you know what the most important thing for you to do is. Like, you don't say, hmm, what should I do now when you actually have like an important assignment to the next day? You're very much aware that you have that assignment to the next day. It's very rare that you actually don't know given a particular moment what the most important thing for you to do is that moment.
我回来后有电话吗？还有一篇文章我需要写吗？就是说，如果我不完成这些，会让我有一点焦虑，我是什么-是什么让我有一点焦虑呢？所以，在任何时候，我不需要一张清单。你也不需要。在任何时候，你都知道你最重要的事情是什么。比如说，当你有一个重要的任务要在第二天交的时候，你不会说，嗯，现在该做什么呢？你非常清楚你要在第二天交那份任务。在特定的时刻，你很少不知道你此刻最需要做的事情是什么。
And then if you have a two-hour to do list, it's too stressful. Like, I used to do a two-hour to do list and I'd have like 70 items on it. So, you never finished the things on your to-do list. So, it was too much stress. So, now I just ask myself every moment what is the most important thing for me to do right now? The only exception is, is in the mornings, I always try to spend one to two hours reading and then one I've been doing since 1990 every single day. I love it and nothing gets in the way of me doing writing or very rarely. Like, I schedule podcasts for the afternoons. We do this IG live in the afternoon. I don't return, I don't even use, I don't even look at my phone until the afternoon. I'm just about writing and it's not even about getting writing done. It's about getting better at writing. So, it's very important for me to try to get better every day.
然后，如果你有一个两小时的待办事项清单，那就太有压力了。就像我以前会做一个两小时的待办事项清单，上面会有70个项目。所以，你从来没能完成待办事项清单上的事情。这就让我感到太大的压力了。所以，现在我每时每刻都在问自己，现在我最重要的事情是什么？唯一的例外是在早上，我总是试图花一个到两个小时阅读，而且我自1990年以来每天都这么做。我喜欢它，没有什么会妨碍我写作，或者很少。像播客我会安排在下午做，我们在下午做IG直播。直到下午我才会去查看我的手机，我真的很专注于写作，不是为了达成写作目标，而是为了变得更好。所以，对我来说，每天都要不断提高非常重要。
And the only way to get better is to do it. Speaking of that, sad news for me, I just found out one of them and thank you for texting this to me. I just found out one of my podcast guests and a guy I admire, admire very, very much. Andrews Erickson, he's the professor who's the creator of the 10,000-hour rule. And that's the rule that if you do something for 10. I don't agree with this rule, but it's the rule that if you do something for 10,000 hours, you get to be the best at it.
唯一提高的方法就是去做。说到这个，我有个难过的消息，我刚刚发现我的播客嘉宾之一，即我非常钦佩的人，安卓斯·埃里克森教授去世了。他创造了“一万小时法则”，即如果你在某项事物上花费一万小时，你就能成为最好的。我不同意这个规则，但它就是这样。谢谢你把这个消息发给我。
Anyway, he just passed away. So, I'm sorry to hear that about him. He was a really good guy. He was on my podcast. We would email back and forth all the time. Even when I started doing comedy, I wrote to him and we conferred like, how can we apply the 10,000-hour rule to comedy? And that's when I realized the 10,000. It was really that email discussion with Andrews Erickson was very important to me because I realized then that he was wrong. That the 10,000-hour rule is really great for improving things that you do over and over and over again, like a golf swing. But it's not good for creative things like comedy or writing. And Julia Cameron, who was on my podcast, she's a great person also. She wrote a book called The Artist's Way. She once sent to me, she said, oh, you poor, poor baby. You are locked in this prison created by this 10,000-hour rule. You need to break out of that prison. And she was right.
他刚去世了。所以，我很难过听到这个消息。他是个很好的人。他曾在我的播客上作客。我们一直邮件联系着。即使当我刚开始做喜剧，我也会写信给他，我们会商量如何将10,000小时的规则应用于喜剧？那时我才意识到这个10,000的观点。与安德鲁斯·埃里克森的那场电子邮件讨论对我非常重要，因为我意识到他错了。这10,000小时的规则确实很适合让你不断重复做一些事情，比如高尔夫挥杆，但对于创造性的事情，比如喜剧或写作，它并不适用。朱莉娅·卡梅伦也曾在我的播客上，她也是一个非常优秀的人。她写了一本叫做《艺术家的路径》的书。她曾对我说：“哦，你可怜的孩子，你被这个10,000小时的规则所限制。你需要打破这个限制。”她说得对。
And I started thinking what really helps me learn to be the best at any area is what I call the 10,000-experiment rule. So instead of just repeating something over and over again and getting feedback about it, you experiment with different ideas. So if I'm writing, maybe I'll write an article in the second person instead of the first person. So the second person is when you say you instead of I, or maybe if I'm playing chess, I experiment with some crazy openings. Or maybe if I'm doing business, I experiment with validating an idea on Kickstarter. Or maybe if I'm doing publishing, I'll experiment with doing a 10-page book, self-published on Amazon.
我开始思考，真正帮助我在任何领域成为最好的学习方法是我称之为“万次试验法”的方法。所以，不仅仅是反复地重复某件事并得到反馈，你还要尝试不同的想法。如果我要写作，也许我会用第二人称写一篇文章，而不是第一人称。所谓第二人称是指你说“你”而不是“我”，或者，如果我在下棋，我会尝试一些疯狂的开局。或者，如果我在做生意，我会尝试在Kickstarter上验证一个想法。或者，如果我在出版，我会尝试自己在亚马逊上自行出版一本十页的书籍。
So every experiment, and I came over the whole, once I had this conversation with both Anders Erickson and Julia Cameron, I came over this whole philosophy of how what an experiment looks like, how you can learn as much as possible, whether you fail or succeed. And I've spoken about this before, but Anders Erickson, for better or for worse, has been very instrumental on my thinking because for so long, I just beat myself over the head about the 10,000-hour rule. How do I, how do I crack the code? So I don't have to do 10,000 hours. And he was pushing me at it. And finally, after tons of conversations, I was able to do it.
每次做试验时，我会全面考虑，和Anders Erickson和Julia Cameron谈过话后，我领悟到如何观察试验的哲学，无论成功还是失败，都可以尽可能地学习。我以前也多次谈到过这个话题，但Anders Erickson对我的思维方式有很大的影响，我经常为了那个10,000小时的规则苦苦挣扎，试图找到突破口。但是他一直在鼓励我，最终经过长时间的交谈，我终于成功突破了。
So anyway, rest in peace, Anders Erickson, you're a really good guy. His book, Peak, I highly recommend, and my next book called Skip the Line coming out next March. So forget about it now, but it's all about how to skip the line and be the best without spending Anders Erickson's 10,000 hours. I owe the whole concept of that book to him. So I was very sad to hear that he had passed, he had passed away.
总之，安德斯·埃里克森，你是个非常好的人，愿你安息。他的书《顶尖》我强烈推荐，我的下一本书《排队切断》将于明年三月推出。所以现在就不必再想了，这本书是关于如何跳过排队成为最好的，而不必花费安德斯·埃里克森的一万个小时。我整本书的概念都是归功于他。所以我很难过听到他去世的消息。
So, oh, let me see. Oh, is there anything you wanted to bring up specifically? Well, no, I'm just going along with the whole way. I'm shocked that he died. He's a very good guy.
所以，呃，让我想想。哦，你有什么特别想提出的吗？嗯，没有，我只是跟随大家的步伐。我很震惊他去世了。他是一个非常好的人。
Obviously, Malcolm Gladwell popularized the concept of the 10,000 hours in his book Outliers. And then Anders Erickson thought he got that Gladwell got it wrong. So that's why Erickson wrote Peak. And I think that was pretty much the only podcast he wanted to go up on. He flew actually from Florida to New York. And he wasn't really that healthy then. It was several years ago. And we had such a great time. Anyway, we kept in touch.
很明显，马尔科姆·格拉德威尔在他的书《异类》中普及了“一万小时”这个概念。然后安德斯·埃里克森认为格拉德威尔搞错了。这就是为什么埃里克森写了《顶峰》。我想这基本上是他想发布的唯一播客。他实际上从佛罗里达州飞到了纽约。当时他并不是特别健康。这是几年前的事了。我们当时过得非常愉快。总之，我们一直保持联系。
But the way Malcolm Gladwell popularized the 10,000 hour rule, he spoke about the Beatles and how the Beatles in the early 60s. Before anybody heard about them, the Beatles worked for something like 10,000 hours in these strip clubs 24 hours a day almost in Germany. And that's how they just, they put in their 10,000 hours. But when I spoke to Erickson about this, he said, no, no, it was more like five or six thousand hours. Gladwell got it wrong.
不过，马尔科姆·格拉德威尔所流行的“一万小时法则”，他谈到了披头士乐队和他们在60年代初期的情况。在任何人知道他们之前，披头士乐队在德国的夜总会里工作了大约10,000小时，几乎是一天24小时。这就是他们输入了一万小时的原因。但是当我问埃里克森时，他说不，不是一万小时，只有五六千小时。格拉德威尔搞错了。
But then I started thinking about the Rolling Stones. How did the Rolling Stones get good? They actually kind of sucked in the beginning. Like Mick Jagger, Quinn and play instruments. And he wasn't a singer. He was an honorable singer. If you look at the very early reviews of the Rolling Stones, they would say that the reviews that I can't understand a single word. He says out of that ugly mouth. They would say that. And nobody could figure out, and they weren't even like a great group. So how did they get good?
然后我开始想起滚石乐队。滚石乐队是怎么变得好的呢？他们一开始其实很糟糕。就像米克·贾格尔和昆恩，他们不能弹奏乐器。他不是一名歌手，但他是一名优秀的歌手。如果你看滚石乐队早期的评论，他们会说我听不懂他从那张丑陋的嘴巴里说了什么。他们会这样说。他们甚至不是一个很好的团队，所以他们怎么变得好的呢？
Well, here's, and it was very interesting studying the example of the Rolling Stones. First off, they did Idea Sex. So Keith Richards and Mick Jagger were obsessed with the Blues. So they combined, they're the first group to really combine the Blues with Elvis Presley, which is sort of a modern version of the Blues at that time, with the Beatles, which was like pop music. So they combined the Blues with pop music. And so Idea Sex, they were the only one in that intersection of a pop version. They, you know, their first ten songs, their first album was all Blues music, was covers. They were a cover band.
嗯，我觉得学习滚石乐队的例子非常有趣。首先，他们进行了"创意性交流"。基思•理查兹和米克•贾格对布鲁斯音乐非常着迷，于是他们将布鲁斯和当时一种现代化的布鲁斯——猫王的音乐以及流行音乐甲壳虫乐队相结合，成为了第一个将布鲁斯和流行音乐结合的乐队。因此，他们处在这种流行音乐版本的交汇处，这就是"创意性交流"。他们的前十首歌曲，也就是他们的首张专辑，都是布鲁斯音乐的翻唱，他们其实是一支翻唱乐队。
Their first time they had a hit in the top ten was a cover of a Buddy Holly song. Then, this is very important for getting good at something. They had their plus minus equals. So their plus was obviously Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly. There's virtual mentors that they studied, ever since they were little kids. Keith Richards and Mick Jagger, many each other on a train going into London. Mick Jagger was studying at the London School of Economics. Keith Richards was some kind of drug addict loser, and they were both carrying Blues albums with them. So they had a common interest, but it wasn't just that. They, so they had their, their virtual mentors. They had their plus, but they also had their equals. So one time they were going to a gig and they shared a car. Nobody had a car. So they shared a car with two other people. We're also going to the gig, two other like 16-year-olds who were also going to that gig. Eric Clapton, who became, you know, the head of group cream and Jimmy Page, the guitarist for Led Zeppelin.
他们第一次上了十大单曲榜是翻唱巴迪·荷莉的歌曲。那么，这对于变得擅长某事非常重要。他们有他们的前辈和同辈。他们的前辈显然是查克·贝里和巴迪·荷莉。他们从小就研究虚拟导师。基思·理查兹和迈克·贾格在去伦敦的火车上相遇。迈克·贾格在伦敦经济学院学习。基思·理查兹是一位某种程度上的毒品上瘾者，他们都带着布鲁斯专辑。所以他们有共同的兴趣，但不仅仅是这样。所以他们有他们的虚拟导师。他们有他们的前辈，但他们也有同辈。有一次他们一起去演出，共用一辆车。没有人有车。他们和其他两个人一起共用这辆车，这两个人也是16岁，也要去那场演出。埃里克·克莱普顿，后来成为奶油乐队的头号人物和吉米·佩奇，领导收音机爆炸的吉他手都在其中。
So they were friends. All of these guys, this whole group of like rock, like they grew up together. So they had their equals that they competed against and compete, so you always have to find your equals that you're you're both learning from and competing against.
所以他们是朋友。这些家伙全部都是朋克摇滚迷，他们一起长大。所以他们有相互竞争和比拼的对手，你总是要找到跟你一样学习和竞争的人。
When, when Mick Jagger and Keith Richards tried to write their first song, they were failing. They couldn't do it. So they ran into on the street to where their friends from the, from the club scene. These friends were John Lennon and Pomm McCartney. So John Lennon and Pomm McCartney said, hey, how do we all just work to, well, let's all hang out in your little studio apartment and we'll figure it out. So that first, the first original song that the Rolling Stones ever put out, I think it was called I Want to Be Your Man, was written by Pomm McCartney and John Lennon.
当时，米克·贾格和基思·理查兹想写他们的第一首歌，但是他们失败了，无法完成。所以他们跑到街上找他们从俱乐部场景中认识的朋友们。这些朋友是约翰·列侬和保罗·麦卡特尼。于是约翰·列侬和保罗·麦卡特尼说，嘿，我们为什么不一起合作呢？我们可以在你们的小工作室公寓里一起想想办法。所以，滚石乐队发布的第一首原创歌曲，我想它叫做《我想成为你的男人》，是由保罗·麦卡特尼和约翰·列侬写的。
So it's grown up together and meaning these, these greats that are just in the beginning stages. You know, when you look at the art movement, you have, you know, Jasper Johns, Robert Roushenberg, they were roommates and they lived right next to John Cage and who was also this abstractionist in the music space, or you look at, you know, all these different group Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, Steve Wazniak, Paul Allen, they all hung out together when they were kids. So Picasso, Picasso and Marlowe, all these artists from in France, Fitzgerald, you know, F Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemway, John Dose Passos, Gertrude Stein, all hanging out in Paris in the 20s. So you find your equals and you find your scene, not your tribe, but your scene that you grow up with, tribe means something different than a scene.
所以说，这个发展一起成长，意味着这些伟大的作品只是初步阶段。你知道，当你看艺术运动时，你有贾斯珀·约翰斯、罗伯特·罗申伯格，他们是室友，住在约翰·凯奇旁边，他也是这个音乐空间的抽象派，或者你看看，这些不同的组合史蒂夫·乔布斯、比尔·盖茨、斯蒂夫·瓦兹尼亚克、保罗·艾伦，他们小时候都在一起玩耍。所以毕加索、马洛、所有这些来自法国的艺术家，菲茨杰拉德、欧内斯特·海明威、约翰·多斯·帕索斯、杰特鲁德·斯坦，都在二十年代在巴黎一起玩耍。所以你找到和你一样的人，找到你的场景，而不是部落，但部落的意思和场景不同。
The other thing they did, it's very important. When they're young, you say yes to everything. When you're older, you say no to everything. So Mick Jagger, they would say yes to every single gig. They did 200 gigs a year in the early 60s and that's how they, again, that's the part with a 10,000 hour rule comes in. They just did as many gigs as possible.
他们做的另一件事，非常重要。年轻时，你对所有事都说“是”。当你年长时，你对所有事都说“不”。所以，米克·贾格尔他们会对每一个演出都说“是”。在60年代初，他们每年做200个演出，这也解释了10,000小时规则的一部分。他们只是尽可能地做演出。
Now, here's something interesting. How do they make money? Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones, all of them, they don't own the rights to their music. They kind of sold those away. In 1966, they sold the way all the paint at black, simply for the devil, all the satisfaction, all the songs that we know, they sold them to their manager, Alan Klein. So here's how they make money. Every year, they go on tour. They form a new company, they go on tour, the company collects all the money and then they dissolve the company at the end of the year and split up the money into four pieces and their last tour made $600 million. So that's how they make their money.
现在有一件有趣的事情。他们是怎么赚钱的？米克·贾格和滚石乐队的所有成员，他们都没有音乐的版权。它们已经被出售了。在1966年，他们把所有的音乐都卖给了经纪人艾伦·克林。那些著名的歌曲，例如《Paint It Black》、《Sympathy For The Devil》、《Satisfaction》等，都被出售了。现在他们是如何赚钱的呢？每年他们会举办一次巡回演出。他们会成立一个新公司，开展巡回演出，这个公司会收集所有的资金。然后在年底解散公司，把钱分成四份。他们最后一次巡回演出赚了6亿美元。这就是他们赚钱的方式。
So you always have no matter who you are, whether you're Mick Jagger or someone sitting at home writing a book, you always have to do what I call the Spoken Wheel approach. Their music is the wheel, but the tour is one of the Spokes. Mick Jagger also produces TV shows. They also produce other albums and they own rights to other musicians. So on and on, they have a Spoken Wheel.
那么，无论你是米克·贾格还是坐在家里写书的人，你永远都必须采用我所称呼的口头轮盘方法。他们的音乐是轮子，但巡回演出是其中一根辐条。米克·贾格还制作电视节目。他们还制作其他专辑，拥有其他音乐家的版权。因此，他们不断地构建口头轮盘。
Also, it helps to have breadth of knowledge. So the first words of sympathy for the devil, I forget the words now, please excuse me, blah, blah, blah. But that's a line from a book by Mikhail Bulgakov, the master in the Margarita. So Mick Jagger was an avid reader of literature and he took lines from his favorite novels. So again, using ideas, using other things to combine and you know, these are just a few other things.
另外，广博的知识也有帮助。关于对魔鬼的同情之词，我现在忘了，抱歉，呀呀呀。但这是米哈伊尔·布尔加科夫的一本书《玛格丽塔的主人》的一句话。因此，米克·贾格尔是一个狂热的文学读者，他从他最喜欢的小说中引用了一些句子。所以，再次使用思想，使用其他事物来结合起来，你知道的，这些只是一些其他的事情。
It's worth studying the careers of the people who are at the best and you could see this relates back to Andrews Erickson just riffing on this. You could see how where the 10,000 hour roll comes in, but also these other things. You know, they experimented. Mick Jagger experimented with playing the guitar experimented with different types of music. They experimented with having different drummers. Brian Jones, they threw him out of the band because that experiment wasn't working. So they also did experiments. They experimented what should they say yes to? What should they say no to? So and so on.
值得研究那些最优秀的人的职业生涯，你可以看到这与安德鲁·埃里克森的见解息息相关。你可以看到1万小时定律的适用性，但也要注意其他方面。他们进行了实验。米克·贾格尔通过演奏吉他和尝试不同类型的音乐进行了实验。他们试验了不同的鼓手。布赖恩·琼斯因为试验失败被踢出了乐队。所以他们也在进行实验。他们尝试回答这些问题：他们应该说“是”还是“不是”？等等。
Unfortunately, they're not very good at saying no. They're still playing at the age of 73. Mick Jagger thought he was going to retire at the age of 33, but don't make gold and shows you the uselessness of goals. You could have a goal for five years from now and then five years from now, you could say, yeah, that was a stupid goal. I wish I knew that. What I could know. I'm going to make a new goal. And make a new goal.
很遗憾，他们不擅长说不。他们在73岁的时候仍在演奏。弥克·贾格认为他会在33岁的时候退休，但这证明了目标的无用性。你可以有一个五年后的目标，然后五年后，你会说：是啊，那是一个愚蠢的目标。我希望我知道那个时候我可以知道什么。我要设定新的目标。然后再设定新的目标。
