Memorable moments:
(03:59) “ It’s very interesting to me how much is going into health care and data management processing, the iCloud, as we all know, FinTech. Financial data sets and cyber security. I think that’s going to be very important.”
(08:33) “That’s what scares me about if someone just says, Oh, I’m going to do a little research. First of all, you better have a lot of time on your hands to be able to do the kind of research to research 4,600 companies just in the U.S. To decide whether you should be investing in these companies.”
(12:03) “As long as you’re not derailing your whole financial plan to chase the next hot thing, because I don’t think AI is going to be the next NFTs, but it can just be gone in a year. It is going to change things. It probably is going to make our society different for sure, but it’s something that you still shouldn’t all of a sudden take a left turn on your entire investing to pursue.”
