That one time I missed investing at series A to a now $2.4Billion psychedelics company?

And other lessons learned in psychedelics investing:
Oh did I mention Peter thiel also backed it?

And it would have been 6-7x in 12 months.

Ugh.Le sigh.
In <10 minutes, we talk about psychedelic profits:

- my first psychedelic journey

- Why the industry is booming

- Why I am starting to believe it’s the next frontier of the mind

- How I missed a 2 Billion Psychedelic exit?

- what 6 stocks made me 900-3000%
And let’s be honest these are wild markets, don’t invest if you’re not buckled up….

I've been investing for 13+ years.

The single most important thing to investing well?

What I wish I knew in the beginning?

DEAL STRUCTURE: 5 things to know a 🧵
#1 Dealflow is great, but structuring is KING.

Doing a deal w/o knowing structuring is like signing a prenup w/o reading it.

When you structure a deal you need to understand the terms and where you have leverage. Here are some easy places to start:
#2 Term sheet is ONLY the starting point.

Would you go to a swap meet & not negotiate?
Don't invest in a company w/o negotiating.

If you LOVE a startup, go ask an investors w/ 10+ years experience, how's the structure look? Could I protect my downside or increase upside?

Why I love buying businesses 10x vs Real Estate 🥊

A standoff - why I think now is the time for SMB not RE...

#1 Ummmm, overhyped market anyone?
No one is great at predicting highs or lows. Including us

BUT

Is this commercial RE prices chart higher than Bezo's rocket?
#2 What about residential, you say?

Pick a city, just about any city. Want some coffee w/ that frothy market?

What I wish I knew as an investor 20 years ago??

Speak your truth... even if your lips tremble.

The deals I could have saved $52M+ on:

If I wasn’t so scared... a🧵
In finance MD typically stands for:

Most D*ckish.
Mr Don’t
IDK but managing directors to analysts were the worst

I underwrote a CPG deal, and saw more holes than cheddar cheese.

Presented the findings.... and got told by 2 MD's to pound sand.
What happened?

That company went on to raise:
$52 million dollars
Burn all of it
Return nothing

Is it bad to say I told you so at that moment? Ya....

How Lebron ACTUALLY became the NBA's 1st billionaire?

Spoiler it was not through dribbling.

It’s through EQUITY in normal biz's not fancy endorsements...

A 🧵...
James does do endorsements...

- aka Give me money and I talk about your product
- he’s bigger on ownership w/ equity

So if you want to do a deal with Lebron - you gotta give him skin in the game.

My favorite way to do deals.

Wanna know wha he owns?
#1 Doubles down on wha the knows.

SPORTS.
- Part owner of the Boston Red Sox AND Liverpool Football club

Uber: Valued at $85 billion, loses $500 million per year

My Laundromat: Bought for $100k, nets $67k per year
If you’re into businesses that actually cashflow…

Free newsletter for ya:

Couple tricks to make this happen:
1) off market deals (go door knock most won’t)

2) don’t buy RE w/ it but lock in 10-12 year lease

3) find your angle - I’m a local community member, and usually leave their name on the door sellers like that

I was horrified to get on twitter & be public; scared to get trolled, mess up.

In finance, we get rich quietly & quietly judge "internet gurus."

But, I did it anyway, & let me tell you a secret.

I do more deals, make $$$, & have more fun than ever...
Trolls Don't Matter:
#1 If you have no prof pic, 20 or less buds & you spitting nonsense at people online. I couldn't care less about you.

I get told daily I'm a liar, or wrong, or am I really worth x, or did y.

It's part of the game if you want to be in the arena.
#2 I've never met a troll in real life.

Maybe they only hang under bridges?

Instead, twitter has 100x'd my network of people I would have never met if I just played in private equity.

Magic happens when people meet from different walks.
