588 - How to Spot Trends & Capitalize in a Post-Pandemic World with Sam Parr, Founder of The Hustle & Trends.co

Business is changing. And so is investing. Risk is higher these days. And people want predictions. But no one really knows. You can't predict something that's never happened before... You can only look at what's possible. So I called up Sam Parr. He founded The Hustle, an 8-figure company that started with an email. And NOW The Hustle has a new arm, which I'm really excited about: trends.co which tells you HOW trends are changing in real-time. It's run by a team of analysts and entrepreneurs who scour global markets for opportunities to help you make money and build businesses successfully. Definitely check them out. And Sam surprised me at the end with a special gift for our listeners so I hope you enjoy. Thanks, - James I write about all my podcasts!

585 - How Think For Yourself with John McAfee

John McAfee is a billionaire on the run from the government. He owes millions in taxes. And has strange and somewhat dangerous opinions on government, coronavirus, public safety, etc. (you'll see what I'm talking about). But some of his insights are worth debating. You'll hear what a totally insane person running from the government thinks about the current state of the world. And if you're asking yourself why his name is so familiar, it's because he started McAfee Associates, the anti-viral software you have on all your computers. Here's what we talked about: tax evasion the wild west running from your country people who think for themselves vs. people who don't think at all the media coronavirus and quarantine inflation The French Revolution And more.

584 - The Virus is a Wake Up Call with Congressman Tim Ryan

The government doesn't innovate. But Coronavirus is forcing it too. A lot of things have to change. Right vs. left. Voting stations vs remote voting. School lunches that lead to high rates of diabetes and sickness. Healthcare costs, and more. Congressman Tim Ryan is one of the few names I see proposing bills progressively in this time. He's sharp. And funny. And gets what people need. I asked him to walk us through what's broken and how this virus is helping to lead us to a better, reformed America. I write about all my podcasts!
