--------
Vivek Ramaswamy shared his incredible journey from a humble background to financial success in his 20s. Raised with a strong academic focus, Ramaswamy was expected to pursue a stable medical career. His parents, immigrants from India, originally envisioned him attending medical school. However, Ramaswamy’s academic excellence led him to Harvard, where he explored new opportunities beyond the medical field. While at Harvard, Ramaswamy double-majored in science and engaged in various intellectual pursuits, including a life-changing genetics class. His passion for science and curiosity about market dynamics led him to work with a group of Harvard alumni at a quantitative hedge fund focused on biotech investments. This exposure blended his interest in genetics with financial acumen, setting the stage for his financial success. By leveraging his unique skill set at the intersection of science and finance, Ramaswamy accumulated $15 million before turning 30.

He’s made a statement about that little while ago. When he’s doing a life story style interview he lets the guest finish talking and just listens. When it’s just a conversation like with Boosie or with TK Kirkland. That’s when he’ll interrupt you.

You didn't get argumentative against him to insert your own feelings/thoughts/irrelevant experience. You didn't make it about yourself to stop him and insert some random rant as though interviewing yourself [e.g. your many Grant Cardone interviews where some how it always comes up that you paid off yer house]. Instead, this time for the first time in legitimately too many years you simply asked a question and STFU to allow the interviewed person to speak their truth. In this case the person, Vivek, is fascinating. Thank you. PLEASE use ____this interview_____ as the model from here forward toward other persons you choose to invite. :GolfClaps:

Vivek’s ambition and drive is truly contagious and actually gives me hope through his actions and courage to speak truth… Ron Paul was first politician I admired, now Trump and Vivek are on the list, starting to see some others too. I liked trump bc he did a good job with as little as they allowed him to try and do, he can and should do more this time but my hope is Trump sees that in Vivek he assures his legacy. The Legacy of Trump is that he was not planned for and the only way to make it last is to pass the torch to another outsider even better from a younger generation to continue a path that he began by clearing away all the debris so those that walk it won’t trip at the start and it becomes more and more of a viable option for America to take going forward.
