Kevin Kelly is our guest this week on Rule Breaker Investing. His new book, Just Hitting Bookstores, This Week is Your Next Must Read,. It's entitled Excellent Advice for Living. Kevin was involved with the launch of The Well in 1985 and later helped launch Wired. In 1993, he was executive editor for its first seven years. He talks about understanding the 12th technological forces that will shape our future.
Not all advice is excellent, and not all futurists are right. But Kevin Kelly, Founder and Senior Maverick of Wired Magazine, is the exception on both fronts. Today he returns to Rule Breaker Investing to share his optimistic take on the generous nature of the universe and our place in it.
