      Im afraid that that I've taken it to far for pitching it. Now that it accomplishes a impossible gole. So any pitch sounds far fetched. Like it's only a scam. That and few understand the princable of it's operation' being it's for extracting flourgold. A type of gold that few understand. As there is yet to be a personal means of collecting it precisely. So only the larger forms of it are understood as having a value. For nothing working today that has the ability to collect the smaller flecks of it. That holds more gold than any other form of placer gold on earth. And goes unnoticed and not measured do to everyones inability to collect it. With only a rare few knowing the values it holds in protecting circles. As people don't want to know about the gold that their now having to throw away to get the little bit of larger gold off the top. No I'm stuck proving it myself through using it. And am now on a path to that end. Just financing it myself is hard to do with only an SSI check to work with. That and I have sever IBS. So everything is made ten times harder. As I save every dime and spend my pennies wisely as I give my life to my invention. One that is poised to help a great many in the hard days to come. And I'm to far past the inception of it to be able to just quit trying now.

    Matt's Magical 8...
    1. Opening Slide- Logo & Sexy One Liner
    2. Sell the problem - Know your audience (rich 10 year olds)
    3. Sell the solution - convince them THEY are right!
    4. Market Opportunity - Your market is growing (just add CAGR)
    5. Traction - Momentum and proof of execution over time (not just revenue & subs)
    6. Business Model - The business case of how you will monetize
    7. Team - You are the right team or will hire the known unknowns (are you the ones to pull it off?)
    8. The Ask - What can the audience do for you?
    ps. Founders, know your numbers and connect yourself to your brand.

    One lesson I've learned from millionaires is to always put your money to work, no matter how small. Even investing €200 per month can compound to tremendous wealth over decades. The key is to keep going!

      My advice for who wants to grow financially this year, invest. Saving is good, but investing elevates your finances. Thanks to my financial advisor, my portfolio is thriving, and l'm proud of last year's decisions.

    • @KentBrono
      @KentBrono หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      People often don't realize how important financial advisors are. Data from the last 50 years shows that people who work with CFAs usually earn more than those who don't. I've worked with a Adviser for 7 years, and now I have a $2 million portfolio.

    I am new to the stock market. Every stock that I bought so far, I was out of luck because I bought them when they were expensive. I feel I missed out on all the stock opportunities so far for the tech stocks.I believe having 175K yearly income would be a good investment so I want to plug all my savings into the stock market. I know this sounds a bit dull but I would like to know if I should learn investing or let somebody else (more capable like a FA) do it for me? Please share your thoughts. I am kind of tired of searching for a good stock to buy and losing all the good opportunities..

    Definitely agree with all your points. I'd be really interested and grateful to get your thoughts on some of my 'tweaks' to what you said...see below;
    On the 1st slide...I always advise that clients put their ask and contact details on this slide as well...along with stuff like SEIS/EIS (I'm in the UK)
    With slide 2...I always encourage quantification of the problem
    Slide 4...I think the key is to drill down from the overall TAM to the SOM
    Slide 5...I split traction to date and future road map into 2 seperate slides
    Slide 6...100% agree with what you say about business model...but I think another slide setting fwd mkt entry/customer procurement strategy is as important
    Finally I like to see a final slide on investor exit...a slide 9
    Great video though!

    As soon as I started watching this video I was deflated because I hate talking about this kind of subject when I’m busy trying to make my product, and when I saw a man younger than me talking about being a VC and his book I knew I hated everything about this… But by the end of the video you’ve changed my priorities completely from what appears to be very solid advice to a cranky skeptic. Good show 👍
