    I like Craig but the “ I got fired and had nothing” is a bit of a stretch when your family sold a business for 800M.

      My father sold his business in 2023, but I founded FreightWaves with zero family support & only credit card debt in 2016..

      @@runknownz3606 he actually did say at some point that he started at the bottom, while 10 minutes earlier he said he bought the aviation magazine for 2.5 million cash, and it was a “significant amount of his liquidity” but not his net worth.
      So frankly I don’t think Craig ever actually known poverty or the “bottom”

    My biggest takeaway happened at the very end. Finding a villain to conquer and drawing in a team around that ideal is a game changer for me. I've always had trouble figuring out how to draw the right talent and I think this is the silver bullet.

    As much as I want to be contrarian and believe print magazines aren't dead, it's hard to wrap your head around it due to the sizeable safety net this guy has. I do hope he succeeds and there really is a profitable niche market there.

    28:17 I hope he has a requirement for home construction to begin within a certain period of time. I’ve seen many communities go downhill because of over purchasing by investors that never build and property values eventually plummet.

    Money is not meant to control people rather it is meant to be put to work producing more money for you. You cannot build wealth without putting money in its rightful place.

      Having an investment advisor is the best way to go about the stock market right now. I was going solo, but it wasn't working. I've been in touch with an advisor for a while now, and just last year, I made over 80% capital growth minus dividends.

    Comment people you shouldn’t be hating on this guy b/c he comes from money.
    Most ppl with the same money wouldve just wasted it and not have the finesse to create a profitable and scaleable business out of it.
    Craig has succeeded at Data business, Media Businesses, now he’s dabbling in real estate, financing, e commerce… Give it to him, he’s a relentless businessman. When you can succeed in this wide range of markets, it means you’re doing things right.

    - where are the 40 million he invested come from?
    - If the magazine was losing money, how was it profitable?
    - how are his original investors and his previous business OK with this? He would completely deter his attention.
