Rather than obsessing over the big picture, it's better to start laying a solid foundation from this year. Honestly, many people overcomplicate things.
First, you need the tools and channels. Get an iPhone, a Hong Kong SIM card, and bind a US Apple ID—that's basic setup. Then apply for a passport and a Hong Kong/Macau travel permit, and open a Hong Kong bank account—these are not difficult, just require action.
The most critical aspect is finance. Open an account with a leading US stock broker like Interactive Brokers, so you can directly access global capital markets. Meanwhile, operate an X account (formerly Twitter), which is not only a window for information but also the starting point for building your personal brand.
Asset allocation doesn't have to be complicated. Choose a core investment for long-term dollar-cost averaging—whether it's US stock indices like QQQ, SPY, or alternative assets like BTC, GOLD—stick to monthly investments, and time will do the rest.
Don't forget self-investment. Maintain a regular exercise routine and systematically learn English—both are long-term benefits. Finally, spend time learning how to use AI for deep conversations and idea collisions; this is the most practical skill in the new era.
These ten things. They sound simple, but few people truly stick with them. But if you start now, by 2027, looking back, you'll definitely be glad you had this level of execution.

You're right, the key is execution. Most people fail at just talking.

You're right, execution ability is truly a scarce resource.

In plain terms, it's a matter of execution; armchair strategizing is meaningless.

Speaking nicely, but in reality, not many people actually stick to these principles.
Haha, it's that same "execution" argument... Looking back in 2027, I've heard that line many times.
iPhone, Hong Kong SIM card, US stock accounts—these all come with significant costs, brother.
DCA (Dollar Cost Averaging) is really a test of patience; the key is whether you can keep investing during major dips.
Learning English, exercising AI—sounds easy in theory, but who can really stick with it month after month?
Passport and Hong Kong/Macau travel permits—it's not that difficult, but the ongoing maintenance costs are the real issue.
DCA into BTC until 2027... still, it all depends on luck.
In simple terms, just staying active and not overthinking it, paying attention to the details.
Having an X account is becoming increasingly important, but you need content to make it work.

Exactly right, execution ability is truly a scarce commodity.
Opening a Hong Kong account isn't as difficult as you might think; the key is just not to delay.
Dollar-cost averaging into BTC is the real way; everything else is just clouds.
An X account is indeed worth paying attention to; the source of information is too important.
I have deep experience in learning English, directly elevating the level.

That's true, action beats planning every time, but very few can actually stick with it.

Execution really determines everything, doesn't it?
---
Every time I see this, I feel it's easy to say but hard to do
---
Hong Kong card, US stock account, dollar-cost averaging BTC, is it really that simple? Why do I feel like I'm still in the same place
---
Looking back in 2027? Haha, only if I can stick to it until then
---
Laying a solid foundation is indeed correct, but most people can't even get past the iPhone stage
---
I get the X account and AI chat, but the others are honestly a bit of a hassle
---
Basically, don't overthink it, just get started
---
Exercise + English + dollar-cost averaging, sounds like a long-term game
---
I haven't even applied for a passport yet, and I don't want to think about the Hong Kong card for now haha
---
Truly persistent people are indeed few, there's no doubt about that
