Solid interview - good stuff!

[@RoseBalerus]

When the average man does not understand these simple financial terms. May people need to be more educated on money

[@cherylhills3227]

6 more years till slavery as my CFA would say. It’s crazy how things fall apart but I know about it before it happens thanks to my man and CFA

[@GibsonJames-gr3on]

Do they know something we don't? These elites in tandem with the corrupt government will take this country to it's knees like the fall of Rome, My sympathy goes to anyone approaching retirement, you may have reasonable concerns over your pension and if it'll stretch to cover the rising cost of living, bad regulatory policies, bad energy and insane fiscal policies.

[@John-ww2fv]

They are only elites because they are bold enough to do what most folks don't. from a personal angle I'm aware continuing to invest in periods of higher volatility is a Smart way to build wealth.

[@ThomasColt]

Please could you guide me on how to get in touch with your consultant? My funds are being eroded by inflation and I seek a more lucrative investment strategy to effectively utilize before I consider retirement

[@TheRothschild770]

I am hesitant to make recommendations like this online so I can't share the contact, but you could look him up online and reach out if you wish, the name is Nathan Travis Cook

[@johnshallman508]

excellent -

[@bencoleman8171]

46:30 what is the criteria to allocate each startup into a quartile and then the top 5%? I guess it negatively signals if Launch doesn’t follow on invest they aren’t in the top group. But that’s the investment world. Yours is just very transparent.

[@TheJoshGalt]

What if the new non-ZIRP era has ushered in a period where VCs get consistent 10x exits on boring time-tested start-ups vs. 'the next-best-thing' ultra growth 1000x exits?

[@bencoleman8171]

Not sure if guests should blur the background. Looks odd.
