The MBAs asked Qs that they thought would make them seem smart. And they mostly asked Qs to have a moment to share 'what they would do in my place' once my response was given. (Keep in mind that none of them had been founders prior to school.)

Invert this advice and you will do great
You may lose your wife, you may lose your dog, your mother may hate you. None of those things matter. What matters is that you achieve success and become free. Then you can do whatever you like.

My current belief: Working on 1 good business for 10 years will likely beat working on 10 decent things for 1 year each. Focus is hard. But I think working on 1 thing for a long time will create way more value than working on 10 things for short time.

The best coach I ever had told me this: Realists are more likely to be right. Optimists are more likely to be happy and rich. Always stuck with me …

Don't imitate qualities of your heroes at random. Some are flaws they succeeded despite. The qualities that are easiest to imitate are the most likely to be the flaws.

Founders do need to be a bit crazy.
Founders by definition are crazy because you hear over and over why your idea will never work from anyone that will talk to you, and then you just keep going as if that never happened.

NY is not for everyone. Cold winters..people are always in a rush. Everyone is direct. No pleasantries...really more like in your face. But man...the tempo & energy you get here. Have never felt it in any other city in the world.

"Fin-Tech" was the future of Finance. But the Future is here..is just Finance now. Consumers know this..a fair amount of incumbents don't. That gap is what creates a once in a generation opportunity for builders
