How to Make a TIMELESS investment
By Learning the Principles on Making a hit song Like a Virgin
Billy Steinberg, the famous songwriter of countless '80s hits, passed away today.
There is an interview on YT where he discusses how they made the hit song Like a Virgin for Madonna
Essentially, while working on his dad’s farm and experiencing love aches and renewal along with a brilliant composer, Tom Kelly, they took disparate themes and “new” technology (that I would have glossed over if I didn’t read the brilliant Chris Dalla Riva book on music) LINN drum computer, and “old RB bass line.”
The song was a hit for 6 weeks in 1984-85.
So what did you learn?
Take disparate observations you have of life, something so unique and special to you.
Everything you experience most likely has some kind of correlation to something investable.
Write it down and apply it to the price action, you know, the “old R&B bass line.”
and apply the new technology like AI
So what happens when lightening strikes?
Are you going to get a pat on the back, going to be frozen in time?
Naaah.
Madonna teaches these two yokels what happens when you are successful
When after blowing them off, they do get to see her
“I’ve been waiting to see you for a long time”
And she replies coldly
“Well, now you did”
And walks off.
She taught them the oldest rule in the markets
She’s not your friend.
You are only as good as your last trade, so go make some new music.
Then come see me.
