Watching one of these videos isn’t going to change my life, but it does have a vaguely deep set value from watching you guys interact, the general consciousness of your conversation introduces a reality of what it means to be a billionaire or how to accumulate substantial resources by strategically providing value and finding value over time… It is appreciated.
I didn’t like the name when I first saw it but when I clicked into the first pod I liked you guys. 99% of people don’t own multiple domain names + have multiple tabs open. The ones that do are potential subscribers to MFM. 75million subscribers incoming!
WOW, incredible podcast session here with Dharmesh. I've been listening to these for the last few months and really appreciate the honesty and vulnerability you get your guests to authentically share. Their insights and ideas are invaluable and as you'd mentioned there are TONS of them they seemingly bull through that can be unpacked. Thanks for continuing to add value to the entrepreneurial ecosystem!
All 3 of you are an inspiration. I feel this is only the tip of the iceberg of the experiences and lessons that Dharmesh has to share with the world. Really meaningful to those like me who are at square one. I will build off the shoulders of these giants, I can do it.
Love the energy. Love your nerdyness, frankness. You sometimes drift into the startups on the side etc. A lot of fun. Trends, great. I would love to listen to the early stages at growth on how Hubspot or you others prioritized the planning of how many FTEs versus result, speedwise vs funding and how often you changed plans, etc etc. In essence, am I able to minimize my european growth forward by learning from you. This could mega cool. Example, did you do like dropbox and used a growth hacking system to decide what to prioritize? Did you sometimes think to grow for profit and not scale or was it blitzscale? Or does the website grader etc which were tools to make you realize you need Hubspot, a strategy or did you have enough liquidity to simply try different things. am imagening you must have had thousands of discussions and would just be great not to have to think it all out oneself.
Best MFM episode ever. The bar for great MFM episodes has been raised with this interview. Thank you @dharmesh for being so transparent. Love the chapter breaks in the video. Transcripts next?
The name is still awesome, I can’t believe you guys think it’s lame… most people will never make their “first million,” and so it is a huge aspiration for most. If you think it’s becoming a caricature, I can understand that… don’t let the name restrict your evolution however. I feel like if you rename, you’ll want to rebrand based on your personalities, and that’s ok! I love this content, I’m listening to it all day, wish I could thank you guys!!
Boy, that hourly rate of not returning the blender!! or not returning the call while seeing the TV and incurring the late fee!! Sam I am so much like you - I am totally with you when you say you do not like to waste.

Did I hear this correctly? "Good ideas are dangerous. Because what you want to find are great ideas. And you DON'T need to find them before you start the company" If so, maybe it's okay to start with a good idea and then try to find the great idea during the process?
you want to find a great idea always. Sometimes you think what you have is a great idea, but you realize part way into it that it's not so great.. and so you should be ready to pivot to a better idea!
@@shaanpuri5111 You nailed it. The goal is to always have a great idea -- but it's hard/impossible to tell when you've got one. Best to start with the best idea you have, and then iterate from there.
Dharmesh. I see you have been answering questions. Please can you complete your Quant equation thought and how to score it. I have started writing personal projects and this kind of metric will help everyone to judge my next ideas and score them relatively.
Mayber after the first 25min mark Sam & Shaan should actively focus on talking less and let the guest speak more. Its been a continuing theme that the top questions dont get asked, but I hope at that 25min mark the guest will feel more comfortable in speaking more while Sam & Shaan just ask the questions we all want to hear about.
I thought this would be a "joke account" but my gut told me to click the pic. Now subscribed to your channel, and I am amazed you ont have as much subscribers as net worth! Now I have to find out what awesome work your wife does. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
You can change the pod's name. I would assume people don't click because of My First Million. They click because of you guys and the familiarity of the thumbnail. It is difficult but important not to fall to momentum, Always be able to do a 180 if it's better for the pod.
Guys the 2 person interview doesn't work. 1 person has to be the host..you guys step over each other because you are both brilliant guys with different ideas...its getting worse. Especially when your both excited about the guest. 1 host 1 cohost.

Well said
Excellently articulated
Dharmesh is a billionaire and he's here replying to comments thanking and taking feedback. Damn. Huge respect sir
he's a legend
@@shaanpuri5111 as are you...
You are my motivation to start a business at 40 years old!
@49:21 This aged well as Ai is allowing software to do just that.
I feel like if I just listened it again and again and applied what they're talking about, I might become a millionaire as well.

How the f does this have only 1,000 views. If this podcast was a stock it would be the most undervalued stock of all time
They get a ton of listens on other platforms…probably pushing 1million a month
It's up to 80,000+ views now, so looks like it did eventually pick up steam. :)

Thank you Dharmesh for your transparency. Love MFM
Best high-level business podcast!
When is the next conference? How do I get in these circles?
I’ve been listening to the last few weeks….other than than the valuable business ideas..you guys always drop some real life lessons
Great episode. Have listened since episode one and now watch here which adds to the value you provide
What a great episode, we need Dharmesh back again!
I definitely plan to be back on again.
Best MFM episode ever. The bar for great MFM episodes has been raised with this interview. Thank you @dharmesh for being so transparent. Love the chapter breaks in the video. Transcripts next?
Thanks for the kind words. Glad you liked it.
An idea guys for speeding up the first 25 mins. Start with a quick fire 10 questions which are the same for all guests?
I could listen to this guy ALL day
If you're talking about Sam or Shaan, then yes, I'm totally with you. But that *other* Dharmesh guy, I'm not so sure. :)
@@DharmeshSpot He rambles a bit, but some salient points in there if you can hang on ...
@@dcheetham8603 Fair.
What are the top 2-3 books on copywriting?
Worth over 800M and he can’t get a better mic 🎙️ 😢 it’s hard to hear him on a plane ✈️

Thanks for leaving us hungry for more.... Excited for next episode
Which is Darmesh favorite episode? I want to listen but I can't find it.
Search for "Hustle MFM Balaji" and you should find it.
Boy, that hourly rate of not returning the blender!! or not returning the call while seeing the TV and incurring the late fee!!
Sam I am so much like you - I am totally with you when you say you do not like to waste.
For the record, I followed this channel BECAUSE of the name. I think the name is perfect.
Naval as a similar concept for the "hourly rate" as mentioned by shaan
Great show
You guys really produce perfect content. Also love the pods in video format - definitely deserve more engagement on here!
Dang Right! All-stars in the flesh🤩
Any idea what chair Dharmesh is sitting on? it looks super comfortable - would love to buy one for my home office
It's an Ekrones "Stressless" chair (it's a Norwegian company). I've been sitting in one of these for over a decade. I love it.
Lol, I too thought that was a painting of Steve Jobs😂

This was one of the best episodes you've done
He's misguided to not build generational wealth.
Generational wealth is about creating FREEDOM & STABILITY for your children & grandkids.

LinkedIn is Amazing Sam.
Hahaha these two looked so different a year ago. Loving the evolution!
ChatGPT vibes
This was really valuable! Thank you
If you leave the table, all the chips are gone.
Nice podcast headline ;)
34:00 went back to grad school after getting rich haha

Excellent episode.
Just gotta say, big missed opportunity not calling this episode "My First Billion" 😂
Candidly, I was struggling having the "billionaire" reference in the title at all. Feels a bit braggy. Clever idea though.
I thought this would be a "joke account" but my gut told me to click the pic. Now subscribed to your channel, and I am amazed you ont have as much subscribers as net worth! Now I have to find out what awesome work your wife does. Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
Umar Ashraf took me here
Man Dharmesh is dope
nice human great nuggets - thanks Dharmesh
This guys the man
Don’t underestimate the effects of killing the MFM brand/vibe that got you here...
Could you elaborate? I liked the old MFM episodes and I like this one as well.
@@DharmeshSpot Billy comment of the week 👌
is this guy on aderall or is his cam 2x speed
Sorry, that's just my normal speed. Not ideal, but have never been able to change it (I have tried).
Get Kieran Flanagan on the pod guys
Great podcast.... frustrating that the two hosts interrupt a lot
Nice vid. Agreed a different name will be great. Current one sounds scammy.
Am i the only one loves the name?
For NLP processing and search software to have a look at ThoughtSpot
Also look Computational Linguistics at UW
Thanks for dropping some gem Dharmesh
Sam always wants to start flying through things and rushing people when it gets close to an hour 😂
Dang. What an incredible idea to replace LinkedIn.
Change the Name. I don't even think about the name having any impact tbh.
Awesome interview guys!!
Part 2 part 2 part 2
You can change the pod's name. I would assume people don't click because of My First Million. They click because of you guys and the familiarity of the thumbnail. It is difficult but important not to fall to momentum, Always be able to do a 180 if it's better for the pod.
I dont like the name either.
Do NOT change the name. That is bad advice. Don’t do it…
Guys the 2 person interview doesn't work. 1 person has to be the host..you guys step over each other because you are both brilliant guys with different ideas...its getting worse. Especially when your both excited about the guest. 1 host 1 cohost.
how do i double downvote this comment
@@geepytee my opinion. If it don't apply let it fly
I disagree. I think part of the magic of the pod is the interaction between Sam and Shaan. It's what makes it so fun. (Speaking as the guest here).
