Chapter 6 – A Thousand Loops of Knowledge
6:30 AM.
James sat in his chair, staring at the ceiling.
The money didn't stay. No matter how much he earned, it vanished at the reset. But knowledge? Knowledge carried over.
And if he was stuck in this loop, he might as well use it to his advantage.
He had infinite time. That meant he could learn everything.

Loop 1 - 50: Computer Science
James started with the fundamentals—coding, algorithms, networking, cybersecurity.
At first, it was frustrating. He spent entire loops struggling through textbooks and online courses. But by loop 50, he was writing programs from scratch, breaking into secure systems just to see if he could.
By the end of these loops, he wasn't just a trader anymore—he was a hacker.

Loop 51 - 200: AR & VR
Next, James dived into augmented and virtual reality.
He learned how to build VR engines, studied how AR overlays worked, and experimented with headset prototypes from the biggest tech companies.
He attended conferences, asked the right questions, and absorbed every piece of knowledge available.
By loop 200, he was designing VR interfaces that didn't even exist yet.

Loop 201 - 1,000: Biotechnology
James saved biotechnology for last.
He spent hundreds of loops in medical libraries, speaking with researchers, and reading scientific papers on genetics, aging, and disease prevention.
He sat in on university lectures, memorized medical textbooks, and watched surgeries firsthand.
By loop 1,000, he understood biotech better than most experts in the field. He had learned how to reverse aging, enhance human capabilities, and manipulate DNA.
And he wasn't done yet.
After a thousand loops, James had evolved.
He wasn't just a trader anymore.
He was a genius.
And now? It was time to put his knowledge to use.
