I think everyone knows what fun feels like at least a little. I think it’s likely anyone in the audience can hit a baseline of feeling more fun than they’ve ever felt, all the time Fun isnt just energetic. Tranquility is fun

Hm, but are you saying it's possible to have positive valence at all times? I think this is *maybe* possible given advances in technology, but impossible otherwise. Shivering Buddha, sweating Buddha, and all that.

Yup several. They’re all quite successful in their own right, rarely talk about it unless you’re really aggressive in asking them exactly what they feel and when, and all took similar paths if you squint

It’s actually not that surprising. To become a billionaire you need to hold an asset (usually equity) wayyy past when others would cash out. There’s not many people who would do that, and the subset who would tend to be life-satisfaction outliers already
