A visit from Erik Hanberg

The main message I took out of Erik Hanberg's was that the internet allows us unlimited possibilities and if we utilize them and work hard, we can be very successful. Not only successful in accumulating capital, but more importantly, reaching others via the mediums we utilize (i.e. writing blogs or even online books). He considers the internet as one of the Black Swan opportunities out there and again stresses the importance of hard work, but also to party now and then. Although such work is scalable and atypical of the norm (hourly & salary), Erik maintains that he has greatly benefited from such a practice noting not only his involvement in many non-profit organizations (City Club, etc), but also his successful endeavour and publication of The Little Book of Gold.
