he auction number so far is 10 times as much as the clean one. So in terms of collectibility the naughty one is 10 times more valuable.

The real bidding won't happen until the last day of the auction so you can't really tell what it'll go for now. But I think it's May 1st is the last day of the auction. But the naughty one's up to $12,000 and there's not really a strong reason for anybody to bid until it gets close to the last day. So we'll see where that goes.

Somebody was accusing me of being a grifter for being in this NFT market. Let me talk about the definition of a grifter. If you're doing something where you're trying to fool somebody into believing something that's not true you might be a grifter. If you tell them exactly what you're doing and show your work with full transparency that could never be grifting, right?

So I'm saying in the comments you're saying tulips for sale, grifter. All right, does anybody argue with the point that as long as you're fully transparent you couldn't be grifting because there's nothing hidden, right? Nor is there anything especially persuasive. It's not even anything manipulative to it. So the cartoon itself, the one that is the NFT, literally says the NFTs don't have any value. That's the topic of the cartoon. And when I talk about it I tell you there's no reason to own one but people collect things for whatever reason so I'm not going to stop them. I'm making it available.

Yeah, so look at the names that people are calling me. Huckster, tulips. Now you have to examine yourself, don't you? Because what it feels like, I can't read your mind but what it feels like is people being angry that I could make money on this. Doesn't it feel like that's all that's going on? Because remember we're a free country. I've completely shown my work. I've told you there's no reason to buy it. I told you there's no reason to buy it. I don't think I can be more transparent than that, right? But still people have that feeling that you don't like other people to succeed.

There is a theory that what makes Democrats and Republicans different is how happy you are for somebody else's success. Let's test that. When I see that people are successful I can definitely feel pangs of jealousy if they did something I didn't do or if somebody's a billionaire and I'm not a billionaire I can feel a little bit of I wish I had that. But I'm always happy for them. I mean you could be jealous and happy at the same time.

So how do you feel when people are successful around you? So that's my question in the comments. Tell me how you feel when you hear that somebody else has succeeded in a big way. Do you feel happy or does it bother you a little bit and you feel like I don't think the way they did it is good or I think they must have stolen something or there must be something wrong or something.

Somebody says inspired. Here's a, so Brock just says he would feel inspired by somebody else successful. That my friends is a winning attitude. If your feeling about other people's success is "wow, maybe I can do that too" then you are in good shape. If your feeling about somebody else's successes is they probably stole it, they didn't deserve it, they're grifting, they're hucksters, you're gonna fail. You're gonna fail. It's almost, you could almost predict it.

In fact if you were doing job interviews and you gave me a choice of just throwing away people's resumes so I don't even know what their experience is but they could just answer a few questions, how do you feel about this? You couldn't get an honest answer but imagine you could get an honest answer. I feel the way they would answer a few questions about other people's success and about their own ability to be successful, you know that they have agency and the ability to be successful. I feel like that would tell me everything I needed. Because if somebody comes in and says I believe that my success is entirely up to me, what do you think they've done up to that point? They probably worked really hard to build a set of talents, go to school, stay out of jail because you know that's their philosophy. Of course they were following it if you believe that's their philosophy.

So I feel like you could boil down somebody's entire economic value within capitalism, their entire economic value could be predicted almost entirely by that attitude. Whether they think that their hard work is what makes them successful or is mostly about race and luck and who you were born to and who you know and all that.

Some stuff. Jay says sometimes Scott really is truly a boomer. All right Jay I'm gonna erase you because probably the most bankrupt opinion, the most empty opinion that you could ever say is somebody's acting like a boomer. You're acting like a boomer. Now sometimes that's funny like there's a context when it's funny because you recognize oh yeah that is a boomer thing. And I think those are funny too because I do recognize how often I fall into the stereotype.

But here's the thing. You're just being useless, right? Just throwing me into a group. It's just the most useless thing you could do and you need to go examine your life because if you thought that was a good comment and one that society needed or somehow helping you or entertained you there's just something wrong with you, right? Just something wrong with you.

Yeah if tying me into a category is somehow important to you, if that was a priority like that's what you thought, oh this will be important let me tie him to a category. Why? Really what good was that?

Here's another idiot I'm gonna call out. Just the idiots today. Rustic says in all caps "Scott has thin skin question mark." Has anybody paid attention to anything I've done for the last five years? If there's anything I don't have it's thin skin. You don't do this job if you have thin skin. I couldn't possibly wake up in the morning and do what I do day after day with just withering. You should see the messages I get every day. Every day I get more criticism than you will ever get in your whole worthless life. And I don't think I've ever gone to sleep feeling bad about it. Not once.

Now if you can't tell the difference between thick skin and thin skin you are so far from understanding anything about your world and I feel sorry for you. Some of this is genetic I think. I think maybe so. A lot of it is practiced but it's hard to sort out how much is practice and a skill to be thick-skinned and how much is natural.

Then why are you angry now? Do I seem angry? You haven't seen me angry. Maybe half. But I try really hard to not be angry because you don't want to see me angry. That's a level that I'm pretty sure you've never seen on video but you don't want to see that. And this isn't that. This is a condemnation let's say. I'm condemning you because I think it's good for life. There should be less of you. It's good for the world. It's good for the world if people like you are slapped down. The people who are just bad for the world and don't have anything useful to say they should be slapped down.

One of the reasons somebody was asking me yesterday if I've ever been in a fight like a physical fight and I've been in physical altercations but usually I was just beating somebody up. Not usually. The
