Bill Gurley ''To be great at it requires a level of hustle that's really hard to explain''
@19:09 He's so right - being in an environment where everyone is competitive and ambitious and wanting to make an impact is so important. Most of us think we have the self-starting energy and motivation to get it done if we think it's important. Often, bouncing ideas off to other brilliant and smart people will have huge influence. I never work out as well at home as I do at the gym.
I like your point about the gym. I never realized how true this is for me too.
An amazing interview. Lots of insights for founders & upcoming VCs alike. Gurley is really the OG of venture capital.
16:42 favorite quote “ markets have a way of separating very seeking individuals from their capital”
I love these episodes. I hope they release a new one every week
Kudos to editor this video! Way it has shot and edited is very conversational in itself.
One of the most enjoyable interviews I have ever watched. Bill Gurley just exudes dark humor
0:33: 🎸 Bill Gurley, a renowned venture capitalist, has relocated to Austin, Texas, and discusses his perspective on the tech industry and his love for music.
4:46: 😬 Silicon Valley Bank's recent crisis and potential impact on startups and venture capitalists.
8:53: 💡 The best way to protect against the downside is to enjoy every last bit of the upside. Venture capital returns are most valuable during market bubbles. Uncertainty and tighter funding may impact innovation. Startups should not expect a return to the previous fantasy era. Success in venture capital requires hustle and maximizing optionality. Jeff Bezos understood how to talk to shareholders in a unique way.
12:27: 📺 Bill Gurley reflects on his investment in Uber and the challenges faced by the company.
16:21: 🔑 The interview discusses the challenges and risks of venture capital investments, the allure of Silicon Valley, and the impact of location on startup success.
21:08: 🗣 Discussion on the challenges and trends in the venture industry, including cultural tensions and the future of top tech companies.
Recap by Tammy AI
I wish Emily's interviews could have a deeper conversation. This feels like is only scratching the surface.
This was really great. Hope you keep up this format!
100% >> If you are going to start a company today, Silicon Valley will "increase your odds of success." Especially if you're an AI startup - SF gives you so many opportunities for collaborative 'collisions' w/all the ecosystem players (investors, Founders, talent, media, etc.) - it's a privilege to have that kind of access.
I like the way he shared Bezos speaks to Shareholders with Endearment. That was valuable.
I love this format, Emily.
Great interview!! Thanks all 🫡
Excellent...
This was an amazingly sober wake up call for the student who is ready for the master to appear.
Thanks Emily for your work!
founder james
Laughing out loud. 😂 " no matter what I am saying, or what psychosis is dripping out of my mouth, I am still in the game" and "alot of crypto at large is excessive arbitrage taking money from people who want to separate themselves from it". Very funny stuff.

"Money printers go Brrr"
bu...buuh....but who was "hustle"? loool.... If my pension fund invested in any of these veecees i'd be very worried.
She pretends to not know how it goes too
Great takeaway for founders and business owners: separate mentally from the management role and shareholder role. That's different a mindset where shareholder mentality will push the executive management to better results, higher efficiency and that will lead to more profitability. While shareholder mind tells you where you want to be, management mind tells you the path!
Emily is really good at this
VC’s must do list : 1. Get on the Joe Rogan Podcast 2. Move to Austin
Just finished watching the battle for uber after this interview

Bill is an amazing investor and he has invested heavily in Doge coin, the open source nonprofit people's currency.

It’s the “especially blacks” comment for me 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
