@@Khoukharev well he didnt get rich off morning brew, where he wrote the newsletters, he got rich building the platform, where people write newsletters... kinda picky but i am really passionate about ppl understanding what it means to own digital real estate. Writing a successful newsletter using a platform doesnt mean you own digital real estate, the real gold there is owning the platform. Your own brand, yes that is your own gold, but because I am coming from physical real estate and years in software, I think I have a deeper grasp of what it means in the long game. NOT to discredit this video, I think it was really awesome and one of my best I have ever seen on how to learn off someone else's dollar then go make a bunch of dollars. For sure top notch interview

Thanks for this. I'm sure the video content is amazing but I just don't have the time to watch a full hour.
I like how he is a good grounded individual with no hatred for his parents and people over 35.
lol I had to stop listening after the 9th diss on his parents, which was within the first 12 minutes.
'BEEHIIV'!! Just signed up! Looking forward to seeing the benefits :)
Welcome aboard!
brilliant interview
Thank you
"Over index on grit" solid gold hiring strategy. Gotta be scrappy.

tons of respect for this leader, he built the platform that hosts newsletters, though, not a particular newsletter?
Beehiive is a platform, Morning Brew where he is essentially a CTO is a newsletter. So to an extent he has done both, I guess

Lol! 16:24
I thought that was real tv 💀
It's very inspiring 😊 but do you need an editor for short video reels for more engaging audiences.
coming in hot.
Great interview Ty
Good stuff!❤
The naivete of being young and ambitious
thanks for watching
Temper it with wisdom and it's a grand slam.
The naïveté is what allows entrepreneurs to take big swings. It’s a necessary ingredient.
great video
