One of the most impressive parts: Tim's like this for a giant cross-section of folks. There's someone out there with the exact opposite tastes to mine that similarly finds hard-hitting episodes.

Definition of a "well" in PG's framework.

@tferriss @mlevchin I've walked from more deals than I've closed and I sleep fine

If you're talking yourself into it in hour two of the meeting, you already know the answer

@tferriss @mlevchin Always been a big fan of Max, that perspective on real world socialism vs capitalism is worth the listen alone

@tferriss @mlevchin Thank you!!

@tferriss @mlevchin We know the answer, this is a good one!

@tferriss @mlevchin Solid advice. When in doubt I just look at the charts and move on

@tferriss @mlevchin Tim I really need help

@tferriss @mlevchin Let go of the moments of doubt, go forth, you know.

@tferriss @mlevchin i am curious if people actually use affirm?

@tferriss @mlevchin Levchin lived socialism, then built two of the most successful capitalist companies in history. That contrast alone should make this episode required listening.

@N30oma11 @tferriss @mlevchin Boom, hello assistant.
