Jesse Pujji on Bootstrapping a +$1B Business + Selling To The Ultra Rich

[@nickt5252]

Two days ago Jesse was eating lunch at Chipotle. He was about to leave when a woman walked in. This woman was average in every sense of the word. But as she walked past Jesse, Jesse heard her say 'EBITDA'. Jesse is now engaged to this woman.

[@gauravnagpal3123]

This is one episode that needs to be listened to twice..back to back

[@abelzam23]

I listened to this 4 times already, currently working on Jesse's idea

[@alanpagni8354]

This was really good. People talk about "digital marketing" and I think most people understand it to a certain degree, but when you bring in a guy like Jesse who literally gets paid millions to explain how it works, at the highest level, the information is obviously going to be priceless. Even those couple outdated slides of his first $5000 report helped clear out some of my own internal chatter about the fundamental structure and value chain.

From $10K to $25k that's the minimum range of profit return every week I think it's not a bad one for me, now I have enough to pay bills and take care of my family

NO SMALL BOY BET!!! Either Shaan or Sam will create a data insights report company in the next 365 days. The same way Sam scouted a bunch of high networth community founders on the pod before starting Hampton. I suspect the same is happening here. First with CBInsights now this. i see a trend coming.

50:57 Stop the cap 🧢 And that friend who told you he makes $55m at Goldman Sachs, tell him that the CEO has a base salary of $2m and his total comp with stocks and everything goes upto $25m max. Atleast check the publicly available data before bs-ing😂😂

[@christophero8346]

Have you ever thought that since these these dudes are on the hedge fund side were comp is 2 and 20 (2% of fund size and 20% of profits made) that based on the profits made by this guy or his traders, that’s the average commissions + salary he gets per year?

[@tarun9542]

@@christophero8346 Ed Emerson, who was one of the top executives at Goldman Sachs, made $100m over 3 years and it was so extraordinary that it became news. Also, 20% is not from the profits made, its the percentage over the hurdle rate, otherwise only a fool would give 20% of profits to a hedge fund on top of a 2% fee. I don't know much about investment banking and hedge fund world, but know enough to spot bs stories. I would really have to be out of my mind to believe that some 35 year old guys at a company are making more than the CEO😂

EBITDA

[@nonefvnfvnjnjnjevjenjvonej3384]

sell to the rich: make money but entrepreneurs also need to think about the moral and social aspects of it. warren buffet talked about this a lot. if you make only cool things for the rich, you can get money but you are further skewing the world to be have / have nots. something to think about.

[@skyhappy]

And the rich gives you $5k, while they make $50k
