Fiction blurring with reality can cause a regime shift; an overvalued asset can be used to acquire cheaper assets and increase its own value. The fiction influences the reality. The overvalued asset wasn’t “worth” what it was trading for, but at the same time it also was!https://twitter.com/LAForeverHall/status/1263913713901252608 …

As I mentioned in the other thread, this sort of thought process comes intuitive to me because I have similar lived experiences. The reality and fiction of my own life are blurred. I don’t know what is “reality” and what is fiction. There are years of my life that are blurred.pic.twitter.com/RhPvKwxBCE

The implications in those documents are obvious. But, I don’t remember it. I also know the court decided that I had been brainwashed. I don’t know if this is true. It doesn’t feel true, but then it wouldn’t if I really was brainwashed. Reality & fiction are blurred.pic.twitter.com/OEjp7Xp2Ea

As with investing, you don’t always know the truth. But I know what makes me feel better to believe, what helps me process. I don’t know if that belief is reality or fiction. But I know it has real benefits for me regardless of that divide. So how is that belief not reality?

Teledyne is probably the best historic example of this in the investing sphere. The company was built (and disassembled) largely by blurring fiction with reality. No shock when the father of information theory was on the board.

Replying to @LAForeverHall
AOL journey to Time Warner purchase a good example here though the contours seem maybe different that what you have in mind. The aftermath also a good reminder that if things can’t go on forever, then they won’t. Doesn’t feel that way right now tho, that’s for sure.

We can frame it this way, too: AOL ended up creating a ton of value for its shareholders based on the blurring of fiction and reality.
