How do you determine the tradeoff's when judging an opportunity?

In Episode #376 of 'Musings', Juan and I discuss: the twitter threads popping up for Juan, why it's hard to judge risk, why I place physical safety above emotional well being and material concerns, a sad puppy week, why you don't want to handstand on cliff faces, subjective value changing the opportunities for everyone and why v4v/crypto/introspection/cold approaching might be good opportunities.

A huge thanks to Dave Jones for supporting this week. So so consistent.
