Dividend Policy and the Importance of Cash Flow
The speakers discuss the importance of not leaving excess cash in a business and argue for having only a month or two of cash on hand. They also highlight the benefits of modeling cash flow and paying attention to the bank account and balance sheet.
Episode 488: Shaan Puri (https://twitter.com/ShaanVP) and Sam Parr (https://twitter.com/theSamParr) talk with Andrew Wilkinson (https://twitter.com/awilkinson) - entrepreneur and co-founder of Tiny - about how he’s easily making +$200k a year on Twitter. Andrew also opens up about his $80m a year agency that provides the cash flow to expand his business portfolio, why you should take a profit-first approach, the classic trap the rich fall into and more.
