Hire 1 to Hire 10, Sam Gets Hacked, Shaan Buys a $200K NFT, and More with Andrew Wilkinson

You gotta do it wrong before you do it right. If you know you directionally want to go into NFTs and crypto, you just kind of have to throw a bunch of spaghetti at the wall. And you gotta lose a lot of money. This might make money; it might lose money. But just starting, I think, is way more important.

When I first started, I was like a Jason Fried, David Heinemeier Hansson acolyte—like, 100%, every business should be bootstrapped. I now think that's crazy and stupid, and I think there are certain businesses where it's insane not to raise money.

TikTok is downloaded on, like, over a billion phones right now, and it's a Chinese company. And it has access to your camera, your camera roll, your face at all times. Plus, it has the feed, which can feed you any information you want. All right, so, this is like pretty much root access to your life and your brain.

Owning 100% or owning the majority in your business, it's like a dictatorship. And dictatorships can be very good, like Lee Kuan Yew from Singapore, or they can go terribly, like Kim Jong-Un.

Warren Buffett made, like, 97% of his wealth after the age of 55. So, it all happens very slowly. He started in his 20s or whatever, and he wasn't really well-known until the 90s.

With Obama, he had a special toilet they would bring with him, so he couldn't poo anywhere except for the special toilet. And it would incinerate his feces, because they didn't want anyone to get his DNA.

I live in fear of debt ... It's the number one way you can lose. You can already be rich and then lose everything. It's the only way, basically.
