Daily Productive Sharing 689 - The Best Moment
One helpful tip per day:)
Although Hunter Walk is already a successful investor, he reflects on his past experiences and believes that the dot-com crisis at the beginning of the 21st century was his most helpful life experience:
When he graduated from Stanford, he experienced the dot-com crisis, and finding a job was extremely difficult. But six months later, he established contact with the famous Philip Rosedale and Linden Lab.
He believes that in a bull market, many decisions made by people are impulsive, while under a bear market, they will be more rational.
Recently, I am in a situation similar to his, deciding to move to a new country and then finding a suitable job. After several months of looking, I still haven’t found the right opportunity. But I still decided to move first and slowly look for a job. The worst-case scenario is that when I move there for six months, I still won’t find a job, so I’ll just focus on building AwesomeVisa .
Coincidentally, the rent in that place is extremely high. My friends advised me to start looking for an apartment early, but I feel like I can’t sign a contract without seeing the place in person. So I asked a few local friends if there were any short-term rental opportunities, and two of them said yes. One said I could rent for a month, and the other said I could rent until the end of the year. After a while, the first friend asked me if I wanted to share a house with them, because their previous roommate ran away, leaving a vacancy. I thought it was a good idea, so I agreed. Since I started working, I haven’t lived with roommates, so this will be an interesting experience, won’t it?
Looking back now, it’s amazing that I was able to settle the housing issue without a lot of effort. This friend, whom I have known for a long time, hasn’t even met me in person yet.

尽管 Hunter Walk 已经是一位成功的投资家，他回顾过往的经历，觉得二十一世纪初的 dot.com 危机是最有帮助的人生经历：
- 当他从斯坦福毕业时，经历了 dot.com，找工作极其不容易。但是六个月后，他与著名的 Philip Rosedale 和 Linden Lab 建立了联系；
- 他认为在牛市下，人们做的很多决策都是冲动的；而在熊市之下，会更理性。
我最近也处于类似的境况中，决定搬到新的国家去之后，就要找到合适的工作。陆陆续续看了大半年都还没找到合适的机会。但是我还是决定先搬过去，再慢慢看。最差的境况就是搬去六个月之后，还是找不到工作，那就索性专心做 AwesomeVisa 了。
说来也巧，要搬去的那个地方，房租奇高。朋友们都劝我早点开始找房，但我觉得没有实地看房，也不敢贸然签合同。于是问了几个当地的朋友有没有短租的机会，其中两位都说有。一位说可以短租一个月，另一个说可以租到年底。过了一阵，前面这位朋友问我要不要索性和他们合租，因为之前和他们一起合租的一个小伙伴跑了，正好缺一个人。我想了想，觉得也不错，于是答应了。自从工作以来就没有合租过，所以这会是一段很有趣的经历吧？
现在想来很奇妙，本来要花很大力气找房子，结果就这么办妥了。这位朋友呢，认识了很久，也都还没见过面。
