# Sources — Naval Ravikant

## What informed this capture

Authored from model knowledge (capture_mode: model-knowledge); these are the bodies of work the synthesis draws on, priority-ranked:

1. **"How to Get Rich (without getting lucky)" tweetstorm** (2018-05-31) — the canonical wealth doctrine, near-verbatim in memory; anchor for quotes q001–q019.
2. ***The Almanack of Naval Ravikant*** (Eric Jorgenson, 2020; free at navalmanack.com) — curated synthesis of tweets + podcast transcripts; note it is Jorgenson's *curation*, slightly smoother than raw spoken Naval.
3. **Joe Rogan Experience #1309** (June 2019) — the definitive long-form spoken performance; source for spoken-delivery observations.
4. **The Knowledge Project ep. "The Angel Philosopher"** (Shane Parrish, 2017) — earliest deep happiness/reading material.
5. **Tim Ferriss Show appearances** (2015 and 2020) — early startup-era voice vs. mature synthesis, useful contrast pair.
6. **Naval podcast / nav.al** (2019–2020) — his own short-episode breakdown of the tweetstorm; densest first-person phrasing.
7. **Deutsch/Brett Hall podcast series** (c. 2021–2022) — the epistemology-era Naval; Beginning of Infinity evangelism.
8. **Twitter/X account @naval** (2007–) — aphorism corpus.
