Definitely good advice to accept the world for what it is, and try to reap benefits of the opportunities presented. Like in an economic crisis, you can still make lots of money through shorting, and buying stocks at bargain prices.

Reminds me of Alessio Rastani's comments on BBC about how he dreams of an economic crisis approaching.

the first comment can sound very selfish to some but essentially sometimes you have to exploit and help others along.

Thanks for sharing this vid, Drizzt.

2 of his comments impacted me most.

On Moral Courage - "there are many ways to deal with our unfair world ... accept the world for what it is ... but work hard to exploit the opportunities it presents in as just a manner as possible"

On Delayed Gratification "Life is long enough for you to regret any activity that exchanges long term risks for short term benefits...choose wisely"

Words of wisdom indeed, in this chaotic world of ours.
