Don't treat Buffett, Charlie Munger, or Musk as "answer sources," but as "coordinate samples." Many of the things they say are optimal solutions in their positions, but not necessarily the optimal solutions for you. What truly matters is not "whether what he says makes sense," but rather: in your current position, will this principle make you stronger, or will it hold you back? All correct advice comes with a coordinate system. Correctness detached from its coordinate system is misleading.
