lse is going on here. We've got Tucker is worried that war is coming because the Trump administration is so anti-war that the people who think they might benefit from war, or even worse they might benefit from getting rid of Trump because they think Trump will open investigations and prosecute people who really need to be prosecuted. But those people who might need to be prosecuted are maybe powerful enough that they could start a war that would distract us and be bad for Trump and hurt his credibility and maybe keep them safe. Now that's pure speculation from Tucker. I worry about it. I worry that the worst people in the world might be getting ready to start wars. But on the other hand I also think it's too late. I think it's too late. I think that the Trump effect is already too strong. Maybe if they'd done it sooner it would have worked.

But I'll tell you about the Trump effect. But before I tell you that, here's the coolest story in the news if you heard me. All right, so if you don't mind this will be a moment of just pure me talking about myself because it's funny. All right. As far as I know this is a true story. The country of Nigeria, they have a new national strategy in which they want to make sure that they're aggressively teaching technical and vocational skills to their youth. Yeah, that's a good idea, right? They want to make sure their youth has skills. Kind of basic stuff. But the way they described it is that they want to make sure they have more than one skill. So in other words they want to do something called talent stacking. Have you ever heard of that?

So the Nigerian government is announcing that talent stacking, something that I popularized, is going to be their main way to success. But here's the best part. So this is from X from their, I think it's from their minister of education. I swear I'm not making this up. This is from the Nigerian government. Their minister of education, quote, Scott Adams once said, quote, every skill you acquire doubles your odds of success. This is real, by the way. This is real. He said this is part of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's renewed hope agenda and our Federal Ministry of Education strategy. He says that's why we are aggressively reviving our technical and vocational educational and training system.

Do you know where that comes from? Every skill you acquire doubles your odds of success. Do you know where that comes from? It comes from that book that I'm pointing to over my shoulder. So my book "How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big" has that quote. So Nigeria, their Federal Ministry of Education at least read my book, which was designed to take somebody who doesn't have mentoring and doesn't have good career advice from any other source. I put it in one book. It was designed for teenagers. Now it's written for adults but it's designed so that a teenager could breeze through it pretty easily. It's written to be really friendly to read.

So Nigeria may have decided that if they follow the blueprint in that book they can transform their country into an economic powerhouse. It's called "How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big." And by the way, if you don't know, that book has been hugely influential in the United States but a lot of its influence is by influencing other books in the same domain. So you'll find other very popular books you may have read that borrow from that book. So it's the most foundationally persuasive book in career success at the moment.

Now here's the fun part. What if they're really serious about just using that book as a sort of a framework for how to fix the future? It would actually work. It would totally work because everybody who's used it so far says it works. Why wouldn't it work there? And wouldn't it be funny if my legacy was fixing Africa? Because if Nigeria overtly uses my book and credits me for some of the ideas they're using, and let's say it works, let's say their GDP shows a boost in a few years and the
