@friedberg@DavidSacks@chamath Regarding the convo on wealth inequality, the book "We Have Never Been Woke" covers this topic. He argues the overproduction of elites leads to displaced elites becoming counter-elites that drive instability. Interview @Musa_alGharbi
@friedberg@RayDalio Love the topic. I’ve read and watched most of Dalio’s stuff. I find him incredibly frustrating because he’s too general and talks around so many topics. See @TruthGundlach - he gives insight, less fluff. I also think you need to interview @StephanieKelton
@unusual_whales No. They should be restricted from investing in things they can influence. Should be a similar policy as Big 4 employees performing audits.
@MarginCFO@QuickBooks Saw that this morning. I wonder if the @FTC or @SBAgov is concerned that Intuit Payroll is likely collecting interest on withholdings for SME's payroll now that they are collecting prior to due dates.
@theallinpod@friedberg Could not believing in MMT be considered a luxury belief? The cost to the lower classes is not getting on the housing ladder fast enough, as an example.
There’s a very specific moment when business influencer becomes more influencer than business person (i.e., they make more money from their audience than their professional work). The moment they cross that threshold, it’s very important to stop listening to them.
@BillAckman Peter Thiel took down Gawker because they outed him as gay. Gawker did questionable things and there’s a good argument for why they needed to go. He funded Hulk Hogan’s lawsuit and removed the claim about emotional distress so Gawker’s insurance wouldn’t cover the suit.
@DavidSacks@Jason@AlexJones Jason sometimes becomes filled with narcissistic authority and narcissistic entitlement and it makes him unbearable. Stop narcy raging. Express your opinions with facts in a calm way like the David’s do on All-In and it’ll help the show.
@chamath It’s mainly because you often reference charts that can’t be seen via Apple Podcasts, as an example. Also Apple Podcasts do a horrible job of notifying users when the newest episode is released and skipping one we’ve already seen on another platform.
@RomeenSheth@girdley As an entrepreneur, it isn’t lost on me that @elonmusk has never downplayed luck. He never left the arena. Most of the people acting like it’s easy had their good luck and cashed out. Easier to indulge narcissism and lecture people than risk it all again.
@friedberg None of those empires could print their own currency. We could pay it all off tomorrow. Kelton used Greece v. Japan as an example. Steel man is that demand for USD will just fall off a cliff if we just paid it all down?
@goddek Based on the hearings, I’d guess it has something to do with the radar technology used by the US. @elonmusk said he hasn’t seen them and he likely doesn’t have access to radar tech in F-22’s.
@jefielding I am an older entrepreneur, but I started my first self-sustaining company at 26. Six years later I got an MBA (part-time). Took a class on narcissism in the entertainment industry at USC. Guest taught by Dr Drew. Life changing.
