Dinner last night w/a successful entrepreneur who just sold 3rd company for >$300M. Asked him his formula. “I bet on people. I don’t focus on domain expertise. I look at the arc. The ambition. Where have you failed? I want people who are smart, have failed and are ambitious.” 😊

6 years ago today I raised my company's min wage to $70k. Fox News called me a socialist whose employees would be on bread lines.

Always invest in people.
