Looking back, I can't believe how stupid many of my initial pitches were. Same goes for interns/first years who worked for me. If you're working with people who know what they're doing, they'll immediately tell you (or yell at you) why your idea won't work. That's pretty crucial
1/2 reminds me that sometimes I need to dream bigger. Honestly still debating the tradeoffs.
- other people's money means more capital and sophistication and can get paid for "execution premium"; but heavy stress, and they can outright ban you from cool strats you dig
This is pretty important. You can learn on Twitter but on the whole people are quite nice and won’t necessarily tell you what you need to hear (which is sometimes “this is a really stupid idea, do something else”)

Another reason I can think of is there are certain secret sauces that are never mentioned on Twitter but will be discussed on a desk. Much easier to learn and grow, to reiterate Mr. Octopus's point.

I've been looking for people to have interesting "desk-like" discussions on Twitter, but per
@macrocephalopod, it's not that people are too secretive -- it's that they are too nice It's starting to look like the really interesting conversations are only possible on a desk - Show replies

My worthless 2c. I need some kind of "relationship" with someone to jump in and tell them they're wrong. If someone is dangerously wrong on my thread i have a responsibility to the others reading to address things as best I can.
