@stasher, that menu should be expanded by default. Those post-type options are useful and not directly accessible.

@goliath here is my book recommendation: Stealth of Nations by Robert Neuwirth (2011) + a related article here The Shadow Superpower by Robert Neuwirth.
Foundations by René Albert Wormse is the one I have open right now. As soon as I've finished reading it, I'll comment here.
I noticed that you have read The Sovereign Individual. I would appreciate hearing your thoughts on it #339113 :)
Thanks I'll look for stealth.
The sov individual is a good read, but not from the perpective of becoming sovereign. I was fascinated in the fortune telling aspects given how things have transpired since it was written.
For sovereign pursuers
Harry Browne How to be Free in an unfree world
And an unusual one - Early Retiremernt Extreme by Jacob Lund Fisker. Its a book about money, but it has a system for figuring out what you really want and how to become more free.
This I'll need to add to my list
ERE was (perhaps still?) a thing; he was able to create a huge community and inspire millions of people, me included :)
Anything by browne - permanent portfolio theyre all good
.
ERE best thing is not frugality its importing and downloading thinking and decision making software from that author

Nassim Taleb's Skin in the Game. He goes over how society has structurally removed a lot of safeguards by removing negative incentive and consequences for bad behavior. Many now enjoy asymmetric upside and little to no downside (mostly through government intervention capping losses). Antifragile is also a great book of his.
I've actually never read any of his books. I am generally aware, but never specifically looked into his writing. thanks Norsey.
read The Anarchist's Handbook. reading it now and it is great. best in that category so far.
Give it a week and then I guess I have to bounty the site owner, come on bros post good reads!!
Some books I've really enjoyed recently:
A Brief History of the The Vikings - Jonathan Clements
Darien - Conn Iggulden
The Frontiersman - Allan W. Eckert
Murderbot Series - Martha Wells
Who Built the Moon - Christopher Knight
Lord of the Silver Bow - David Gemmell
The Calculus Affair - Hergé
The Wanderer's Hávámal -- Jackson Crawford
FYI, if you meant to create a bounty, there is a specific post type called "bounty" that allows you to lock-up the bounty amount and then award it to a reply.
i know but i wanted to post it in my turf to help people find it
You can create bounties in any turf!

But tipping a comment works just as well I suppose.
As for a recommendation... you didn't mention genres. I'll start with the basics: George Orwell's 1984, The Sovereign Individual, Anatomy of the State by Murray N. Rothbard.
great books read em all and recommend them! 1984 is sad reading in retrospect.
