    Please stop butting in when he's talking, I know you're trying to be personable but it really detracts from the listening experience.

    Focus less on the next question, and more on his answers. Go into some of these topics further. Maybe have a lighting round at the end..but try think about quality > quantity. I’m getting question fatigue.
    See Tim Ferris interviews for a good example.
    Thanks for this one! Great guest.

      To be fair. He was a billionare before he became CEO of the fund. That is literally part of the reason he was hired.

    Every country should nationalize their primary industries and invest the profits responsibly like Norway has. They've proved you don't have to be an authoritarian country to have working socialist policies.

    • @farzana6676

      Cuba nationalized all the primary industries. They're still a sh!th0le.
      A sovereign wealth fund is not socialism.
