Table 6, page 23:

"Reserves of Fossil Fuels Plus Technically Recoverable Undiscovered Oil and Natural Gas:" ---

Russia: 293.7 ---

Saudi Arabia Estimated Undiscovered Oil and Gas: 231.3 ---

United States Undiscovered Oil and Gas: 351.5 ---

351.5 > 293.7 > 231.3

Regardless, I'm putting my life where my mouth is. I started my own oil and natural gas exploration and production company in Denver.

I've also spun off a second company, a mineral royalties company, that is focused on the acquisition and divestiture of North American mineral rights in producing open-pit mines.

And finally, I've started a third US natural resources company, SonicFrac, to develop a solid-state fracturing device for optimizing the production of US Shale gas wells.

I also invest every last penny that I take home back into US mineral rights, US oil and gas prospects, and US minining royalties.

I own stock in dozens of publicly traded oil, gas, mining, and resource development companies.

Natural resources are the first thing I think about when I wakeup in the morning, and the last thing I think about when I go to bed at night.

I'm 26.

Perhaps I'm irrationally optimistic about US resource wealth...

I don't believe that I am.

But, you _need_ to be irrationally passionate about what you do. Whatever it is.

If you're running a consumer internet company, and are not irrationally passionate about its future, I doubt you could persevere through the trials and tribulations of being an entrepreneur.

I am a US natural resources entrepreneur. And I am zealous about what I do. You should be, too.
