studied liberal arts style curriculum @bostoncollege , and walked away with knowing how to think rather than what to think

.@coatue_thomas describes how a meeting with Steven Spielberg eventually taught him how to pitch companies.
"Steven said, 'Every great story can be pitched in three sentences, no matter what the story was.'"
"In three sentences you got the whole movie. And what I realized is it takes a true understanding of story to be able to crystallize it in three sentences."
"All the great investors that I've met, like Stan Druckenmiller, my brother Philippe, or Dan Loeb, they have an ability to take any kind of story and just drill it down into its essence to what the key pivot points are that are going to make or break that stock at that particular moment."
