I think we worry a little bit too much about wealth creation with a small like outlier wealth creation and we don't think enough about inspiring people to create companies and learn. The world has never been this equitable yeah but people want to spread a narrative that the world is unfair. I'm going to teach founder university now I have a course where I teach people for 12 weeks or I should say I have a team that teaches it and I'll actually teach it myself in my next cohort. People don't know all the work I'm doing quietly but like 200 people go to this course now I'm gonna invite your passion.
We kick off ACQ Sessions with the-behind-the-scenes story of All-in, from the world’s greatest moderator himself Jason Calacanis. ACQ Sessions is our new, occasional “MTV Unplugged” version of Acquired: a great IRL guest, a bottle (or two) of wine, and no script. We talk about everything you’d imagine we would over wine with JCal — All-In, bestie relationships, money & politics in Silicon Valley, who his influences and mentors have been (one surprise — the great Fred Wilson of USV!), what motivates him to keep grinding and why, at age 50+ when he could easily be winding down he’s instead speeding up into the most productive phase of his entire career. Pour a beverage yourself, pull up a comfy seat and join us!
