Sunday is for Sharing is a weekly roundup of my favorite articles, videos, and podcasts I read, viewed, and listened to over the past week.
This week features a podcast that explains how blockchain technology works, an article on how to determine which projects are worth your time and much more. Enjoy!
My Favorite Video
This 5 minute video features a group of guys hiking through Hang Sơn Đoòng, the largest cave in the world. The shots around 3:50 look like something straight out of a sci-fi movie.
My Favorite Articles
The Triad of Hustling
via Budgets are Sexy
“Here are the 3 questions to ask yourself whenever you’re reassessing your projects:
- How much time are these projects sucking away from me?
- How much money are these projects making me?
- How much FUN am I really having doing them??”
The Shortcut Is: There Is No Shortcut
via Semi-rad
“You can hack some things: opening jars, technology, occasionally your burrito order. But nothing long-term worth working for can be hacked, and if it can be hacked, it won’t be nearly as meaningful.”
No Dad, I Didn’t Get Fired
“Money is important, sure. But I can account for time and happiness too. That’s the beauty of having choices.”
How to Join the Global One-Percenters
“If your individual net income is over about $32,400, then you too are among the top one percent globally.”
The Vicious Circle of Mediocre Work (and how to break out of it)
“If you get up and you start your day answering emails or working on things that are important to others but not to yourself, chances are you’ve already started your day in mediocrity. You’ve just limited your capacity to create something great.”
My Favorite Podcast
Hash Power Episode 1 – Understanding Blockchains
via The Investor’s Field Guide
Love it or hate it, cryptocurrencies are causing some serious disruption in the finance space. While it’s hard to predict which of these currencies, if any, will survive long-term, the blockchain technology underlying these currencies is likely here to stay. This podcast episode offers a great introduction to blockchain technology.
That’s all for this week, thanks for reading 🙂

Zach is the author behind Four Pillar Freedom, a blog that teaches you how to build wealth and gain freedom in life.
He quit his day job as a data scientist in 2019 because he was able to earn enough income from profitable websites to replace his salary. He now teaches people how to start and grow their own profitable websites from scratch in the Income Community.
Zach's favorite free financial tool he's been using since 2015 to manage his net worth is Personal Capital. Each month he uses their free Investment Checkup tool and Retirement Planner to track his investments and ensure that he's on the fast track to financial freedom.
His favorite investment platform is M1 Finance, a site that allows him to build a custom portfolio of stocks for free, has no trading or maintenance fees, and even allows him to set up automated target-allocated investments.

Hey, Zach – I had no idea until just a moment ago that you were listed among the Best Financial Blogs on Rockstar Finance. Congrats, man! I look forward to keeping up with your writing. Definitely enjoying what I’ve read so far.
(And agree with your Financial Panther pick. Having met Kevin, I can attest to his good sense and fun conversation at happy hour.)
Cheers!

Hey Cubert – Yeah I’m extremely grateful for Rockstar Finance and all the exposure they have given my blog this year, being listed as one of the Best Blogs is a huge honor for me 🙂
I actually found your site from the “Up and Coming Blogs” list, so I’m glad they have that list of blogs as well. Thanks for the feedback and stay in touch! 🙂
