This is Peter Thiel.
Co-Founder of Paypal and one of the most unique thinkers of our time.
He recently went on The Joe Rogan Experience and shared some mind-blowing theories and ideas.
Here are 9 key takeaways:
(No. 7 is fascinating)

This is Singapore:
-
#1
Safest city in the world
- Taxes capped at 23%, capital gains 0%
- Amazing wealth culture (Billionaires walk around in flip flops)
I incorporated my business here and visit regularly.

This is Dubai:
- 0% income tax

2/ Thiel shares his theory on how being compromised is a rite of passage to get ahead in powerful networks.
This one was crazy.

3/ Thiel compares California to Saudi Arabia – very interesting take.
Also points out that though there are countless issues with California, there are objectively things working there.
The numbers don’t lie.

5/ Thiel’s theory about Bill Gates’ complicity with Jeffrey Epstein.
And the potential truth behind ultra-rich philanthropy.
Wild.
144
481
4K
1/ AI passing the Turing test.
Thiel suggests we may be overlooking the importance of this milestone.
Could this signal the end of human intellectual uniqueness?
Has AI crossed a threshold we can’t come back from?

7/ Declining birth rates could lead to huge shifts in society.
Thiel explores how this trend can snowball and might completely reshape societies and economies.

4/ Thiel shares his concerns about the U.S.
His thoughts?
To change state…or country.
He also says one of my favorite lines from the podcast here:
“Talk is often the substitute for action.”

9/ Faster-than-light travel, according to Thiel, would require either perfect altruism or total control in alien civilizations.
Free agency wouldn’t be possible.
Any alien with faster-than-light travel would have to be one or the other:
Angels or demons.
127

8/ Thiel suggests that true technological progress has been stagnant since the 1970s.
If technological advancement has narrowed to primarily digital realms while progress in other areas has nearly halted…
What are the implications of this?

6/ The slowing of technological progress might be linked to its perceived dangers.

The billionaire CEO of Telegram who was recently arrested in Paris.

First, a quick history tour.
In the last 50 years, Singapore has transformed from a fishing village to a global powerhouse.
GDP growth has been colossal:
1965 ($974M) vs 2023 ($501B) - a 51,337% increase.
It now ranks
#1
in Asian cities for quality of living.
But how?

2/ Digital Nomad Visa Hack
Dubai's remote work visa lets you live tax-free for a year.
But you can also get a Freelance Visa, making invoices from Dubai which won't cost you as much as having a company there.
Few people use it.

The man who ended socialism in Argentina:
Javier Milei.
He was elected in 2023 and SHOCKED the world.

But who is the man behind this radical shift?
Here's his story and how Argentina is changing:

1/ It’s Safe
Yes it is true, Dubai is as safe as people say.
In 2024, it was ranked 4th safest city in the world behind Abu Dhabi, Taiwan and Doha.

5. The Singapore Paradox
It’s a fascinating place.
64 of Asia's top 100 companies are headquartered there…
And yet, 40% of land is green space!
Smart Nation initiatives have managed to co-exist with preservation of heritage sites and culture.

1. Meritocratic society
Singapore revolutionized their education system.
It is now ranked one of the best in the world.
At the core of their values is that if you work hard, you will succeed.
Evidenced by the current PM Lee Hsien Loong, a Cambridge-educated mathematician.

It had already begun to boom in the early 2000s with huge milestones such as The Burj Khalifa being completed in 2010.

2. Economic Powerhouse
Since the 1970s, Singapore has invited multinational corporations with tax incentives.
Now it is world
#2
for ease of business with excellent tax benefits:
- 0% capital gains tax
- Progressive income tax up to 22%
- 0% tax on foreign-sourced income
7
62
809
3/ Free Zone Company Setup
0% (soon to be 9%) corporate tax, 100% foreign ownership, and easy visa sponsorship.
DMCC and Dubai Internet City are goldmines for tech entrepreneurs.
Big reason why many like Pavel Durov, founder of Telegram, have set up here.
6
42
802
4. Cultural Melting Pot
The population breakdown is roughly as follows:
74.3% Chinese, 13.5% Malay, 9% Indian, 3.2% Other.
With 4 official languages: English, Mandarin, Malay, Tamil.
And despite all the radical modernizing, they have still maintained their authentic culture.

7. Bright Future
Extraordinary happenings and stats:
- 4th largest financial center globally
- Tuas Mega Port: World's largest fully automated terminal (2040)
- Home to 200+ banks, $2 trillion in assets under management
- Goal to produce 30% of nutritional needs locally by 2030

My personal take is this:
If Singapore’s temperature were 5-10 degrees (celsius) lower…
It would be the ULTIMATE location.
And so let’s learn from them and reapply the model.
They have the efficiency of doing business in the US, but the kindness of Asia.
Remarkable.

7/ Central Location
