This would be such a cool experiment to try out. Walk around in public with a QR code and see how many website visits you get!

Wisdom:
When an industry dies, it doesn’t just disappear into oblivion right away. It slowly shrinks, then shrivels, then consolidates, then becomes a small niche. Think:
•Gas lanterns.
•Vinyl records.
•Horse carriages.
 |
The people who survive an industry collapse are the ones who are the most adaptable.
The ones who constantly learn new skills.
Are there any skills YOU are learning for the upcoming 2024 year?
Interesting:
Great chart by @asmartbear shows how cash in the bank affects your lifestyle at different levels.
 |
• $1,000 = “I can’t lose my job.”
• $100,000 = “I can own my house.”
• $2,000,000+ = “I can have freedom.”
• $50,000,000 = “I only fly private.”
Picture:
I went to The Sphere this weekend in Las Vegas to see U2 and it was so damn cool, here's a mini-tour (with videos): →

From far this is what The Sphere looks like: A big ole light up ball
 |  |
 |  |
In the daytime you can still see it, but it's slightly "washed out" with direct sunlight:
 |  |
 |  |
From far it looks like sharp and crisp
 |
 |
The screen does different things:
- Acts as a giant projector.
- Sometimes just showed ambient background color
- Looks like a background for different scenes
This is the first show they did with The Sphere, so I can't wait to see what other cool sets they come up with!

Check out a bunch of videos of the concert and the cool effects of the Sphere on my twitter:

Essay:
The "Pareto Principle" states 20% of activity will account for 80 percent of results.
You can see it demonstrated here on certain consumer products.
Things like detergent, chocolate, and toilet paper are used by almost everyone...
 |
...but things like cigarettes, beer, and soft drinks are consumed mostly by the top 20% of users.
You will notice this in many areas of life:
20% of your clients will account for 80% of your revenue.
20% of your friends will account for 80% of time hanging out.
20% of taxpayers will account for 80% of the tax paid.
Splurge:
We're about to do a giant Black Friday sale at Copywriting Course this month.
What would make it an ABSOLUTE NO BRAINER for you to join Copywriting Course for a year?
Reply and let me know!
I hope you enjoyed these Friday tid-bits!
Sincerely,
Neville Medhora
