“First thing that flashes to my head is, you know, in my show, I've always asked people the same question at the end of what's the kindest thing anyone's ever done for you. Some person on Twitter or something went and compiled every answer. There's 500 answers or whatever and categorized them and like made a pie chart of like what people say and something like two-thirds of the answer to this question were the same, which was the kindest thing was some person made a bet on me, first answering the question before I deserved it or like they saw something in me that maybe I didn't even see in my”

“Tremendous joy out of that. So now I'm architecting my life to just be able to do as much of that as possible. And I hope I get to do it for a long time.”

“When they happened, they didn't do anything for me emotionally or otherwise for whatever reason. That's just not what I enjoy. But when your success happens or when many other people that I and my team have championed have a win, I feel that deep in my soul and heart and gut in a way that is just more gratifying to me than anything else in the world. And this extends to my kids, my wife, my friends, the CEOs of companies that we've invested in, people that we have on our show that we tell the world about. That's the repeated thing that I love. And I also kind of like picking sides. I like saying, I like this person. And by extension, I like them more than the other available options in this field or this industry or whatever.

“Well, for how my personality is wired, that is the most exciting possible thing to do because it means I get to learn about a person and whatever they're doing before other people do. And I like that. I like being at the frontier of what's going on and learning things that aren't widely known. I just enjoy that. I read so much and have spent my whole life just as a constant learning type person. So to find something fresh and new is very exciting to me. And you can usually do that with people like this. And then I've just learned about myself that by far my favorite thing in the world is championing other people. It's just what I enjoy doing. If I look back in my life, the sort of like wins that I've had, the things that if you were to write like a Wikipedia article about me would be like the accolades or the accomplishments, I don't care about those things. I don't think about them.”

“This week we have an unusual episode because I am on the other side of the mic on my friend David Sendra's new show called David Senra. In which he interviews me. Chosen for the last five or six years to never be interviewed, mostly because I love doing what I do so much, shining a light on an investor, a founder, a thinker of some type who I can learn from. But after we did the show, I thought it would be a neat and rare opportunity to share with you all I think about a lot of things as we build, invest like the best, Colossus, and positive sum.”
