risks

When Louise Forlenza sees a production of “Rebecca” in Europe, she knows she wants to be the one to bring it to America. But she and her co-producer are going to need major cash to put on a Broadway musical. They put all their hopes in a mysterious angel investor, but when he turns out to be too good to be true, their show risks going up in flames.

Reporter Joshua Oliver joins us just hours after the closing arguments of the fraud trial of Sam Bankman-Fried, founder of the FTX crypto exchange. We talk about why it’s hard to find a smoking gun in a white-collar criminal trial, why Bankman-Fried testified and what it was like for Oliver to hear his own name in the testimony. Also we go long and short a hedge fund trying to build a news organisation.

On today's episode of the podcast, I'm sharing a conversation I had back in 2017 with Erik Wahl. We discuss the intricacies of writing a book, the challenges of choosing a single passion when you have many, the importance of loving the journey in any profession, and the nuances between building something of value and the act of selling it. We also dive into the world of photography and videography, discussing its role in today's market and its potential in marketing. This episode is perfect for anyone juggling multiple passions or looking for insights into the world of writing and content creation.

How do we actually make the most of our 20s? Career anxiety, feeling stuck, taking risks and managing our money (do we spend or save) are all big concerns we have in this period. So how do we manage these dilemmas and choices to create our dream life in our 20s, and what does that dream life even look like? In part one of our mini series, we examine the major decisions we make during this decade around our future and how we can approach them to get the best outcome. We discuss the importance of taking risks, moving to a new city, quitting your terrible job and trying as many things as possible. We also talk money, dymystifying some of the stigma around how people in their 20s are actually spending their money and why you should be spending on experiences rather than temporary things. Listen now! Part two out Friday!

In this conversation, Gary speaks with faculty from Picatinny High School. They discuss addressing sensitive family issues, taking risks while you're in your twenties, and the importance of financial literacy. They dive into the stresses of money, the importance of cost-saving initiatives within families, and encouraging teenagers to earn through methods like garage sales. The dialogue ends with a focus on the learning potential in every step of the money-making process. We hope you enjoy this valuable discussion for anyone interested in family dynamics and financial independence.

Nassim Taleb has never been shy about expressing his viewpoints on a wide range of topics. But lately he's been getting into verbal tussles with people who have long looked up to his wisdom. Whether it's Bitcoiners, venture capitalists, deadlifters, or anti-vaxxers, many people within these communities have admired his philosophy of antifragility. So why has he taken to arguing with them on Twitter? What exactly are they getting wrong about his ideas? And for that matter, why has he himself gotten into cycling lately? In this wide ranging conversation, the author of books such as Antifragile, The Black Swan, and Fooled by Randomness talks about all these topics and more — including how to think about reducing tail risk in one's own life.
