They say they want to live in “flow,” but they can’t author money flows.

There’s a whole a ‘pharmaceutical’ optimization culture for finance bros and white-collar life in general.

But here’s the real question: how do you stay in flow five or six days a week when the market runs 23 hours, the “deal” never ends, and everyone’s nervous system is quietly fried?

Most of them can’t even wear the uniform correctly. They’re fidgety.

Restless.

Always “on,” never settled.

They don’t have a calm nervous system — so they can’t hold precision under pressure.

They don’t build original IP — they remix what already exists and call it insight.

And when the market hits its most critical moments, they’re not aligned.

They’re late, loud, reactive — watching the move instead of meeting it.
