The James Altucher Show

Jim McKelvey is the co-founder of Square and the founder of Invisibly. I wanted to know HOW he got his direction. Because we all have ideas. But how do we know which ones to actually pursue and execute? How can we find the winners? The ones that will provide value. And profit. In this episode, Jim tells us which markets are underserved. And how to find executable business ideas that will give you a sizable return. And he just wrote a book "The Innovation Stack: Building an Unbeatable Business One Crazy Idea at a Time" If you like this episode, you'll also like episode 553 - How to Make Money by Buying an Established, Profitable Business Using None of Your Own Money with Carl Allen And Carl has a new book on this which you can get for 20% off at carlsbook.com/james I write about all my podcasts!

In this chaotic time, we need a bizarre story. - Jeffrey Epstein went to dinner with some old school comedians. He told them a story about Trump. The story could be false. But if it's real, it'll be the more bizarre story you've heard about Trump. Period. - "Carl Allen has nine side hustles. He doesn't work in any of them. They all just create cashflow for him.

The macro formula for building a business with meaning looks like this: real relationships + belief + combining experiences + fixing a problem + adaptability + (I could keep going). But these are just words. Bill Glaser, founder of Outstanding Foods and my new favorite vegan snack (pigless pork rinds) has stories. He'll tell us how convinced a handful of strategic investors to say "yes" all at once, partnered with Snoop Dogg, found a hole in the market and turned it into an opportunity & more. Guest quote: "Belief doesn't mean having tunnel vision. Belief means adapting" - Bill Glaser Links and resources: Go pig out! Bill is giving The James Altucher Show listeners a discount.

Any effective leader in the world has learned the art of frame control aka these two skills: perception & persuasion. I decided to interview my friend Bill Beteet about this because he's studied this topic for years, put it into practice and now he's teaching people how to get the results they want in persuasion, perception and frame control.

There are new Coronavirus updates! I was sitting at home, and I am nervous just thinking about them. So I called up the two doctors that focus on research on this disease, Dr. Stanley Perlman and Dr. Eric Ding (back to back). I have to say, I feel so much better after the two interviews.

I'm not political. But I'm interested in studying human behavior, history, marketing, what drives decision making, the power of money, perception, persuasion... that's what an election is. It's a soup. So I brought Phillip Stutts back on the show to dissect what's going to define the 2020 election. He's worked on 3 winning presidential campaigns, several governor races, senate races, AND he's also worked on losing campaigns. Which is important. Because that's how you learn your field and get better. --- I get a lot of emails from people asking how to make extra money. Or how to make a meaningful impact in life. Or both. So I want to tell you where to go to learn how to tap into what you love the most and turn it into a profitable income stream. Go find out from my friends Tony Robbins and Dean Graziosi. They have a course that I'm forcing my daughters to take. It's called "Knowledge Business Blueprint." And it's exactly that... a step-by-step blueprint that will teach you exactly how to turn your knowledge into a business. All the details are at jameskbb.com. I write about all my podcasts!

Kamal went to Nepal to live with monks. But most people can't do this. So I had him come on to teach me what they taught him. I recorded this episode BEFORE Kamal's trip, though. So we can compare. Before and after. Here's the before. Later, we'll hear how the monks taught Kamal how to feel less anxious. And escape the mental pain that comes from our daily inner conflicts.

I get these emails all the time, "How do I find my passion? Is it too late? Am I a failure?" Every age asks this. Because we all want to know what's next for us. We all want a second act. Or third. Or fourth. And it's possible. So I sat down with my wife, Robyn, and talked about the exercises that each of us have tried. What works. What doesn't. And where to start (over). Also! The best place right now to discover your passion is to check out this course from my friends Dean Graziosi and Tony Robbins. It'll teach you what you care about most. And how to turn it into your job. Go check it out. And sign up for the free seminar at jameskbb.com. I write about all my podcasts!
