  • How Jeff Bezos Approaches Stress
    May 17 2023

    Jan was stressed. A fortune 100 executive, she had presentations to write, emails to send, conferences to attend, calls to make, and 3 days to do it all. 

    She called up a friend - a mentor - and asked for advice. 

    “First off, Take a deep breath” Jan’s mentor told her. “you need to move your body, and then remember one thing.”

    “Whats that?” Jan Said. “the world is finite.”

    “What does that even mean?” 

     

    Jeff Bezos has a theory on stress that bears repeating.

  • Denis Shapiro
    May 10 2023

    In this episode , we speak with Denis Shapiro, an alternative investment expert and author of The Alternative Investment Almanac. We speak with Denis about his unique approach to writing his book, and a TON about alternative investments, some i’ve never heard of such as ATM funds (yes, the cash machines). Denis defines Alternative Investments, and we discuss how he got into the industry, and investing in life insurance policies, which Warren Buffet and Bill Gates both do. We then discuss how even novices can get involved in the world of alternative investments using LINKEDIN - and he shares a novel approach to this.
