010-episode-10-europa-universalis-IV
WARNING: This episode has loud audio near the beginning. Earbud wearers be advised.
One of my favorite games, and the game I have the most hours in on Steam.
Whats a Europa Universalis IV (AKA EU4.) and why should I care or play it? – The “Map Painting Game” the “War game with too much economics, or the economics game with too much war” would be what I would call it.
Sometimes you may want to escape the now and return to a “simpler time” (LOL) with history.
WARNING: This game is both highly addictive and extremely difficult and complex. Especially for people who are highly intelligent.
Some great streamers that help you learn EU4, depending on when they stream.

One of my favorite books that inspired this podcast – My Side of the Mountain by Jean Craighead George.
Sometimes you may want to escape to the woods and live in a tree – and that’s okay.
What was Sam’s “Arsenal of Freedom?” Ball of Cord, 40 dollars, flint and steel, an axe, a penknife and the clothes on his back.
It doesn’t take much to be free, except Will.
Final thoughts: WHERE do you want to live and why? Full stop.
Take it, make it your own, make it a great day.

You are a networking event.
Final thoughts: Have the freedom to make some extra money. Money doesn’t guarantee happiness, but it is power, it is energy. It merely gives you more wattage to do that which you truly dream of doing…. but it also has the power to ruin your life, so like water, use it wisely.
Take it, make it your own, make it a great day.
