Financial Expert: Passive Income Is A Scam! Post-Traumatic Broke Syndrome Is Controlling Millions! 2:08:00

2:08:00

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett Key Takeaways Saving too much is just as bad as spending too much, from a psychological perspective ; being too far on either end of this spectrum means that money is controlling you Money amplifies who you already are: It will not cure anxiety or depression, but if you’re already happy, it will enhance your life Saving money is the equivalent of purchasing independence A reasonable savings goal: enough that if you lost your job, your car broke down, or your roof needed replacing, you could handle it without losing sleep Your feeling of wealth is what you have minus what you want – and it is so easy to ignore the latter There are two ways to get wealthier: (1) Sacrifice more or (2) Want less There is an optimal level of intelligence for being successful as an investor: The beginner and the Wall Street veteran both invest in index funds; only the midwit tries to beat the market Be smart enough to understand the basics, but not so smart that they become boring to you The biggest risk is always unknowable: The worst economic story that happens in the next ten years will be something that no one is talking about today If no one could see how you are living, how would you choose to live?

My First Million Key Takeaways The Eric Ryan Entrepreneurial Playbook: Find categories drowning in a sea of sameness, spot the macro trend incumbents are missing, then build the solution in that gap. Relentlessly look for a cultural shift that a category has missed: The future is here, it is just not evenly distributed If a category appears to take itself too seriously, then it is probably hiding something, and likely an opportunity to take advantage of in that spac e The goal is to create an object of desire; take something that people have to buy and turn it into something that people want to buy The entrepreneurial sweet spot lives at the intersection of familiarity and novelty; finding these intersections is the art form The Power of Consumer Auditions: When you sit down with buyers, instead of trying to prove yourself, try to improve yourself and invite their feedback into your creative process When building off a successful product, change one thing at a time – throw consumers one egg and they’ll catch it; throw three and they’ll drop them all The Art of Simplification is the biggest hack in entrepreneurship : The best entrepreneurs take complex ideas and simplify them down; this makes it easy for the consumer to understand and for the team to execute against If what you are working on is giving you energy back, then you are probably working on the right thing Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.org Want the guide to spot $100M+ Product Ideas?

How Peter Lynch Became The Greatest Fund Manager Of All Time 56:27

hace 13 días56:27

The Compound and Friends ✓ Claimed Key Takeaways “Selling your winners and holding your losers is like cutting your flowers and watering the weeds.” “The real key to making money in stocks is to not get scared out of them.” Knowing what you own is the most important part of investing “Far more money has been lost by investors preparing for corrections, or trying to anticipate corrections, than has been lost in corrections themselves.” Economists have predicted 33 of the last 11 recessions “You get recessions, you get stock market declines. If you don’t understand that that’s going to happen, then you’re not ready and you won’t do well in markets.” There is no way to dance around the tumultuous times in the market; you have to learn how to live through them “If you spend more than thirteen minutes analyzing economic and market forecasts, you’ve wasted ten minutes.” “Behind every stock is a company. Find out what it’s doing.” Just because someone is a professional does not mean that they know more than you “In the long run, a portfolio of well-chosen stocks or mutual funds can outperform the most sophisticated investment strategy.” Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.org On episode 211 of The Compound and Friends, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Downtown Josh Brown⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ is joined by Peter Lynch, Vice Chairman of Fidelity Management and Research to discuss: Peter's legendary career, how individual investors can succeed in the market, the biggest investing mistakes, and much more!

Cheeky Pint: Marc Andreessen, John Collison & Charlie Songhurst on Tech’s Big Questions 2:09:12

2:09:12

A16z Podcast Key Takeaways Be dispositionally optimistic on technology and refuse false nostalgia about the past The best investors have an extremely open mind and believe they will run into the next big thing at any given moment In VC, Type 2 errors are catastrophically expensive: “It’s better to be in the game and wrong than not in the game at all.” Every new technology comes with a moral panic that it is going to ruin society The only comparison for AI is the creation of the computer itself The state of inflation: If there is a hole in your drywall, it is cheaper to put a flat-screen TV over it than to replace the actual drywall The Subsidy Spiral: Western democracies are trapped in a 50-year cycle where rising costs (housing, education, healthcare) trigger government subsidies that inflate prices further, and no politician can win by telling voters to stop voting for more subsidies – making the doom loop politically inevitable How to spot the next big trend: (1) What are nerds spending their time on during nights and weekends? (2) Pay attention to what ‘everyone’ thinks is a bad idea and (3) Run towards new technologies that foster internet cults The Elon Method of Management : Bypass all middle management, talk only to engineers who know the truth, and spend each week parachuting into the company’s single biggest bottleneck; stay up all night solving it with the team actually building things “I have found people willing to tolerate any level of chronic pain in order to avoid acute pain. People would much rather lose slowly over five years than have the conversation that involves a dramatic change to stop losing.” – Marc Andreessen Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.org Today we’re sharing a feed drop from Cheeky Pint, where Stripe cofounder and president John Collison chats with legends in technology over a pint of Guinness.

Ed Stack: Lessons from Dick’s Sporting Goods [Outliers] 1:20:14

hace 22 días1:20:14

1:20:14

Knowledge Project Key Takeaways Ignorance can be a superpower; sometimes knowing too much kills action As an entrepreneur, the moment that you think you have it figured out, that is when your business starts to die The best insights often come not from getting what you want, but from watching closely when you don’t Never put yourself in a position to need the kindness of strangers The day you stop fearing competition is the day that competition stops fearing you Know who the decision-maker is; if you are in a big meeting and someone is sitting off in the corner in a suit, that’s probably the person you have to convince The most profitable decision on a spreadsheet can be the worst decision for a business: when the data point and anecdote differ, the anecdote is often right Every business that you see is the result of someone’s irrational dedication The outliers know every detail of their company; they do not make decisions nor operate from the spreadsheet Become someone people want to root for: Understand what you must do and how you approach life so that other people want you to succeed; having people rooting for your success is a powerful tailwind Most people explain away failure; the best dissect it like surgeons – the precision of your diagnosis proves the depth of your understanding What you get out of any effort is directly proportional to the effort that you put into it Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.org Ed Stack built Dick’s Sporting Goods from a struggling family store into an empire of more than 800 stores and billions in sales. Along the way he nearly lost everything. Multiple times. This episode is the story of what he did, how he did it, and the lessons you can learn. ----- Some of the things you'll learn in this episode: Never rely on the kindness of strangers. Your name is your biggest asset. The person who talks the least is usually the decision maker. Sometimes the most profitable decision on a spreadsheet is the worst decision for a business. Good businesses don’t need debt and bad ones can’t handle it. When the data and the anecdotes differ, you’re measuring the wrong thing. Trust isn’t earned in the easy times; it’s earned in the fire. People are rarely buying just your product. Give the underdog a chance. They want it more. Not knowing what you’re doing can be an asset. All money comes with strings. Your competition always has something to teach you. Always bet on yourself. Learn from mistakes, but don’t over-learn them. “The moment a business stops evolving, the moment its leaders sit back and think, ‘Everything’s good,’ that’s when it starts to fail.” Problems are opportunities to add value. Play the game to win. Become someone people want to help. Investment bankers are not your friends. Manically focus on the numbers. The recipe is boldness mixed with caution. What you get out of anything is directly proportional to what you put in. The spreadsheet is not the customer. Arguing teaches you how to think. If you go into a deal with a win-win mindset, it almost always works out. Clever excuses don’t make anything better. Every business is someone’s irrational dedication. The most important element of success is perseverance. Always let people keep their dignity. The cost of making others happy is losing yourself. Do right for the company. Do right for society. You can’t prosper unless the community around you prospers. Believing in someone before they believe in themselves changes everything.

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg Key Takeaways Maxims from philosopher king, Chris Williamson: Peace is a performance enhancer Do not feel shame in taking pleasure in the small things You are enough already, but you can be more Delayed gratification in the extreme results in no gratification If you are unduly absorbed in improving your life, you might forget to live it The price of anything is the amount of life that you exchange for it When a man can’t find a deep sense of pleasure, he distracts himself with meaning Scarcity and unavailability are often mistaken for worth Demography is destiny; declining birth rates are existential We remember the noise of bad choices, but we rarely count the cost of silence The monster you create to achieve initial success might not serve you later in your journey Monotony is the enemy of a well-remembered life: Time flies as we get older because we cannot remember our days, and we do not remember them because we haven’t done anything memorable Put down your ruminating brain: Overthinking invents more problems than it solves Attaining something worthwhile is often going to be difficult, but just because it is difficult does not mean that it is worthwhile Errors of commission bruise the ego, but errors of omission starve the soul Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.org (0:00) Bestie intros!

All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg Key Takeaways We should not think of AI as a destination, but as an escalation of intelligence that we become more aware of Main lesson learned from government side quest: “If AI and robots don’t solve our national debt, we’re toast.” “I think it is accurate to say that, if successful, Optimus will be the biggest product ever.” – Elon We need the revival of a coherent philosophy that people can get excited about; fostering a curiosity about the nature of the universe will achieve this “I think that we might have AI smarter than any single human at anything as soon as next year. And in 2030, AI will probably be smarter than the sum of all humans.” – Elon We need an increase in the scope and scale of consciousness to know what is truly going on in our universe ; this will lead to a better understanding of who we are and allow us to create a better future “Unless people have a sense of optimism and purpose about the future, suicide might be just what happens. Having a child is an act of optimism about the future.” – Elon Musk Getting to Mars is way easier than making it self-sustainable for human life; for example, we not only need to create a chip fab on Mars, but we c an make one there Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.org (0:00) Introducing Elon Musk, and reflecting on his DOGE experience (2:47) Optimus: Progress and potential, the “hands problem” (12:20) Tesla: AI5 chips, impact on FSD (16:50) SpaceX: Vision for Starlink-enabled smartphones, $17B spectrum deal, Starship update (26:16) xAI: Next-gen Grok models, Colossus 2, scaling laws, “Grokipedia” (31:29) Evolving alongside AI, implosion of the West, the religion vacuum (37:36) Understanding the universe, going to the Moon, what happens on Mars?

Joe Liemandt - Building Alpha School, and The Future of Education - [Invest Like the Best, EP.439] 2:26:32

hace 8 weeks2:26:32

2:26:32

Invest Like the Best Key Takeaways Personalized, mastery-based learning (driven by AI) can enable students to learn 10x faster, mastering material in just two hours a day and freeing up time for real-world skills, entrepreneurship, and personal interests Motivation is essential: Kids must love school for it to be effective. The greatest motivator is giving students time back in their day, achieved by efficient mastery learning. Time-based, lecture-driven models leave knowledge gaps: Most U.S. students plateau in middle school, as traditional education pushes content too fast, resulting in a fragile “swiss-cheese” learning foundation AI’s transformational role: With generative AI, obsolete textbooks and one-size-fits-all instruction are replaced by continuous, adaptive, and personalized feedback, tailored to each learner’s interests and needs. Feedback and growth mindset are superpowers: Receiving and seeking feedback in school builds resilience, accelerates learning, and prepares students to thrive beyond the classroom High standards + high support = success and happiness: Kids grow most when challenged and held to ambitious goals with strong mentoring, even if the process is uncomfortable. Gamification and engagement: Applying video game design and motivation mechanics to education can make learning irresistible, turning hard tasks into meaningful and fun challenges No one-size-fits-all: Multiple school types, customized daily schedules, and teaching entrepreneurship, leadership, and teamwork ensure education aligns with each child’s unique strengths and ambitions. “I think this is one of the coolest projects happening in America that people are just starting to learn about.” – Patrick O’Shaughnessy on Alpha School Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.org My guest today is Joe Liemandt. Joe is the Principal at Alpha School and the founder of Triliogy Software and ESW Capital. He became the youngest member of the Forbes 400 in the 1990s before vanishing from public view for two decades—only to emerge with a $1 billion bet that he can make kids learn 10x faster using AI. Joe has built an AI tutoring system so effective that students at his Alpha School literally beg not to take summer breaks, achieving 2x learning outcomes in just 2 hours with standardized test results that compete with the best of them. We dive deep into why this could be the most valuable product he's ever built, his contrarian thesis that traditional SaaS is facing AI-driven obsolescence, and how his experience buying 100+ software companies prepared him for this moonshot in a trillion-dollar market that hasn't innovated in 200 years. For investors, this is a masterclass in deploying patient capital to rebuild broken systems from first principles, with insights on everything from regulatory moats to the intersection of AI and human psychology. As your excited skeptic, I push hard on the technology readiness, parental adoption hurdles, and whether this audacious vision can actually scale to a billion kids. Additionally, in a Colossus Profile released last week, our editor-in-chief Jeremy Stern reported, for the first time, Joe as the product guy behind Alpha School in a can’t miss piece of writing.

Founders ✓ Claim Key Takeaways The top maxims from this episode on Jimmy Iovine Do not stop until you get it right If you go to sleep on a win, you will wake up with a loss Push through fear and use it as a tailwind Drop the ego and do whatever it takes to win Find the best people, then empower them Keep the main thing the main thing Focus on the big picture and be fearless about moving forward Opportunity is a strange beast; it often appears after a loss Go for great and know that it can come from anywhere Prioritize speed, go all in, and get more reps You must be relentlessly and unapologetically determined if you are going to accomplish something that has not been accomplished before If you are trying to push the boundaries on something, you need to be surrounded by people who truly believe in what you are doing Always stay focused on the big picture ; the work – the project – is what matters Be mindful of ‘breathing your own exhaust’: Success can be one of the most dangerous things that can happen to you Find the very best people to work with, work like hell to get them to partner with you, and then give them the keys so that they can go drive “I didn’t want to be rich. I didn’t want to be famous. I didn’t even want to be happy. I wanted to be great.” – Bruce Springsteen When you are running after something, do not look left or right; just go! Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.org You grow up in a rough neighborhood in Brooklyn. You drop out of college. Your dad is your best friend but you don’t want to work the docks like him. You’re determined to “do something special.” You get a job sweeping the floor at recording studio. You get fired—twice. You’ll do anything to work in the music business, including working on Easter Sunday. That’s how you meet John Lennon. This is the day your life begins. You focus on being of service. You stay in the room and in the saddle. Bruce Springsteen teaches you what work ethic really means. You work with Tom Petty, Bono, Patti Smith, Stevie Nicks, and countless others. You’ll produce hundreds of songs. You get restless, start a family, and start a record company. You get advice from David Geffen. You figure out your edge is producing the producers. You work with the absolute best, hand them the keys, and tell them to drive. You’re a scrapper, you’re persistent, you use fear as a tailwind, you keep the main thing the main thing, you work all the time, you put 100% into whatever is in front of you. You’re described as fiercely competitive, insanely driven, and brilliant. You can never turn it off and you don’t understand why everyone else isn’t like that too. You start multiple companies, make billions of dollars, and tell the best stories when you go on podcasts after you retire. You are Jimmy Iovine.

#978 - Spencer Greenberg - How Much Does IQ Matter? 1:28:59

hace 10 weeks1:28:59

1:28:59

Modern Wisdom Key Takeaways IQ is not destiny: While IQ can predict some abilities, it only explains about 40% of performance variation You can improve your skills and develop unique aptitudes regardless of your IQ Personality traits outpredict IQ for life outcomes: Traits like conscientiousness and neuroticism are stronger drivers of GPA, income, and educational level than IQ alone IQ and happiness are uncorrelated: Studies find no link (positive or negative) between IQ and happiness, though high-IQ people may experience more isolation or indecision High IQ individuals can face unique challenges: They may be more susceptible to loneliness, social isolation, and even imposter syndrome, questioning their worth despite clear achievements Narcissists are often over-represented among leaders: Because narcissists excel at attracting attention and admiration, they are more likely to become politicians and business leaders, but not all unpleasant people have a personality disorder. Read the full notes @ podcastnotes.org Spencer Greenberg is a mathematician, founder, CEO & creator of ClearerThinking.org How much does IQ really matter? Most of us have met people on both ends of the spectrum and wondered where we stand and what that means for our future. But is IQ truly fixed, or can it be shaped in some very surprising ways? Expect to learn how much IQ matters in all areas of your life, what the pubic misunderstands about IQ, if we should be treating intelligence more like a skill than an inherent trait, why the obsession with IQ might just be a form of intellectual status-signaling, why imposter syndrome is shockingly common and some counterintuitive benefits to imposter syndrome, if traits like narcissism or sociopathy can ever be adaptive or useful, the most common misinterpretations of the Dunning-Kruger effect, and much more… Sponsors: See me on tour in America: ⁠https://chriswilliamson.live⁠ See discounts for all the products I use and recommend: https://chriswillx.com/deals Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period from Shopify at https://shopify.com/modernwisdom Get 60% off an annual plan of Incogni at https:/incogni.com/modernwisdom Get a Free Sample Pack of LMNT’s most popular Flavours with your first purchase at https://drinklmnt.com/modernwisdom Timestamps: (0:00) The Intelligence Test (3:25) What is IQ?
