So this @WSJ article blew up a bit…

Taking a stand against traditional/popular ways of doing things is a sure fire way to garner alot of attention

But with most things, there’s nuance that matters

So let’s dive into how I think about investing 👇
First it’s important to acknowledge that investing is super specifc to the person and their situation - our stories, needs, obligations, goals etc are each unique and therefore blanket advice isn’t super helpful

And this off the bat is an issue with FAs…
Can they really tailor a strategy to your needs and the needs of all of their other clients in a way that may diverge from their own personal beliefs

And no, some Merrill Lynch tool where you plug in inputs and it spits out portfolio construction is not sufficient

1/ There’s been a lot of talk on here about the @Mailchimp (MC) exit and the relative fairness of it to their employees

They first set out as a marketing agency

Deciding what to and when to go all in on an idea is super challenging and there’s a lot of bad advice out there

Here’s how it went for me and SwagUp

Here we go 👇
1/ the first important thing is that SwagUp wasn’t the first product/business idea I had worked on

By the time @swaguphq was started I had launched at least 15+ different ideas of varying levels of success growing up
2/ The chances your 1st, 2nd, or even 5th idea/product is going to take off are pretty low

And that’s largely because building startups are less about the product and ideas, and more about markets, timing, and execution
