We hosted a slumber party with 12 billionaires (our minds are blown)

alright sam we just had an insane weekend together we gotta talk about it i feel like i could rude where to i know i could be what i want to from at all in it like a days on on a road less travel just lives in a house for a weekend with twenty five other founder types probably five to ten of them were billionaires a bunch of others were close and we didn't just like talk or hang out we literally like slept under one roof sat honest together played basketball together went to walmart together a bunch of times my airbnb had bunk beds so we we bumped we bunk bed together this as closest as two men can get so yeah so we had an experience and i have in front of me several sticky notes of golden lessons learned and i phrase each of them i don't know if you do this but i phrase each of them to make it fun because nobody wants to hear your vacation story that's one of the great rules of storytelling is just never tell a vacation story because it's so fun for you but they weren't there nobody cares but i i think we should tell the the biggest lessons learned with the story that backs them up so it's real not just a generic lesson and i phrase all of mine like it's confucius like you know bruce lee whispered this into your ear yeah i dig that and to give the background basically i think like three years ago you tweeted out i wanna play basketball with interesting people i think mister beast like dm you and you're like wait is this real you ended up pho him and he was like yeah come to my place i wanna eat meet interesting people the first year it would like you and ben organized it it was like night us in an airbnb and we're like what we're gonna do so we played basketball the second year you organized it a little bit more and you had like an itinerary this year you guys killed it it was awesome it it was a an amazing event kin i i do like meeting interesting people when i go to conferences or events i just hate conferences or events like i get a pit in my stomach when i have to go and i know it's good for me and i know in the end i'll meet some cool people i just hate the format i hate the structure so it was like well what's you know instead of just complaining about it what's a structure i would like it's like well i don't know what if it was just doing the thing i love i was playing basketball with those people we basically play ball all day and then we talk at night and that was the the core idea is to use basketball as the ice breaker if you broke your knee in the first two hours yeah yeah so this was an event where you could tear you could tear up your knee and be done in the first hour and i still had a good time that means it must have been a good event because normally that's pretty brutal i i did have a little pity party for myself but i feel better now are we allowed to say who is there yeah i think we can say some of the people that were there yeah let's go for it so mister beast who like you know everyone knows him as like on youtube with hundreds of millions subscribers i think he's a paper billionaire i think that's public yeah and he's one of the youngest billionaires in the world i think he's twenty six years old and he's worth a few billion dollars he's one of the most famous people also in the world one of those most recognized entertainer in the world and when you hang out with him he's also one of the like most intense yeah fun to be around you know just wants to play all in like somebody said this one's about elon ago he's playing he's playing life as if the as if the simulation theory is true you know elon has a simulation yeah yeah just be one of many simulations and so he he therefore just goes all in because okay whatever let's let's make this the most entertaining version of that simulation i think that's how jimmy place place life too so we are with him it was the what one of the founders there airbnb who like on paper like according to four is like the hundredth or nineteenth richest person in the world it was another billionaire who was one of the first investors in tesla and spacex it was the founder of reddit it was jesse it's who's on the podcast you me a who runs like a quilt company that does nine figures a year tons of people hey anyway david per in cuba it was awesome you wanna start first yeah let's do it alright i got one for you here's one of the lessons i i picked up and this is about the business ideas that these guys were thinking about so if you're out there and you're wondering kind of like where's the opportunity what should i be working on here's what i picked up from some of the most successful people in america and it says fish were the fish swim not where the fisherman stand confucius aka me did you just make that up you saw me right these five minutes before we were well i thought you had heard did that did you hear that house there's a scratch out on it right but did you get like a chinese food last week and that was like a fortune cookie dude i've had my share of gun chicken alright let me just tell you some of the ideas that i heard from people who work in at this event so you mess you mentioned jesse it's and i think one of the public things that he's done is he got really into racing like running running endurance races so he just followed his curiosity hundred mile races hundred mile races he started to do a hundred mile races while he's doing a hundred mile races he notices that the runners that are trying to do these amazing physical feat are drinking coconut water and coconut water was big like a big part of that niche super niche community and he became a believer and spent time hunting down what he thought would be the best coconut water company ends up finding z coconut water partners with them and z now is a a big success ended up selling i think to coke and you know they're they're in whole foods they're they're you know it's one of the big coconut water brand and he found it when he was small and just like just exploring these uncharted territories so here's some other ones that i heard there was somebody there who's making hundreds of millions of dollars a year selling board games i never even had that on my bingo card i didn't even know that was an option i did not even know that you could do that there was somebody there that was investing millions of dollars into women's sports like you know and not even just women's sports like they're trying to do things now where do you just buy a piece of a college program i don't even know you could do that like that's for sale what what this what is that for sale where is this listed i went to a talk recently with this billionaire who owned like the timber mark la or something and he was talking about looks the box and he was talking about how he's trying to buy college if you buy the rights they're going to like the university of alabama or whatever and they're just like cool we'll give you five hundred million dollars for the alabama sports program but we wanna own fifty one but like trying to do they buy the future earnings is that what it is they're basically i think what's gonna happen is again it's un uncharted territory you don't know exactly how this own play out but this i think the short version is the college will spin out the program their their athletics program as its own business entity they'll sell equity in it they'll use it equity to finance all of their sports like women's lacrosse like things that aren't gonna be the big revenue generators so they use it to to fund all their programs and maybe even school stuff and then those and then and the costs now are are borne by the the private equity person but now it's this asset that didn't even exist before like these college programs gonna make a lot of money media rights and all the stuff but they weren't even for sale but somebody was doing that there were something somebody there that was like yeah seven years ago i just got really obsessed with water i'm like yeah me too i thought my whole life is no no like i got really obsessed like do you know what kind of water you're drinking and i was like oh no like is this bad with my plastics what's going on and he was just yeah like i got obsessed so i just started studying where's is the cleanest water where's is the healthiest water from and i realized that water was gonna become like oil that people were gonna more and more be drinking not tap water but they wanted they're gonna want basically bottled water canned water things like that and that water is gonna have to come from somewhere and i wanted to find the best sources of water and so i went to west virginia and i bought this aquifer this is this spring i bought this giant water source what and he was like you see that drink you're drinking right there it's like some brand like popular brand and he's like that's our water and they use our water so that's good water and i was like what this is just a side quest that he went on and again it was curiosity driven was this one of the billionaires yeah but basically i mean not not billionaire but yeah like whatever close close enough there's a guy a who started a quilt company with his mom in missouri star quilt company and they sell fabrics for people who wanna make quilt his cofounder is his mom i have a planned vacation to so he owns this thing the the company called missouri closing company and he basically bought he did a podcast three years to ago with us where he explained where he bought a town is it ham hamilton missouri he bought like an eighteen hundred person town where they own every building and they're building the disneyland for quilt do just the thought of that so first to go into quilt smart guy like you know could put it on any business goes into quilt like what do you guy when you do a you're throwing it all the way and quilt does a business with his mom right like again independent thinking not just following the herd so then starts the business her his mom does the youtube channel he does the business side of it business keeps growing and then it's like you know what we could do we could create the disneyland for quilt and he literally goes and buys a town again who's is that for sale can you do that how do you do that and that that just kept happening which was like people who were playing games that didn't even seem popular another lesson there was a person there who had sold a piece of their company to churn in and churn in is now kinda known i first heard about it maybe like ten years ago and cher is this really interesting their most best for pc they're they're you know the peter tu was a ceo of fox so he's like a big swing and dick he's been a bump for years but their most pay famous amongst like normal people because they bought bar school when it was nothing and helped to make it something correct and they just had this again independent thinking where they were like hey i think these things that other people see a small kinda of toys things that aren't gonna make a lot of money smaller you know media brands blogs youtube channels i think these things are gonna be big i think basically in they had this thesis which is content to commerce it's like i think if you're kicking ass content you're gonna be able to instead of just making your money through ad revenue and sponsorships you're gonna be able to sell stuff to those people and they had this content to commerce thesis and they go and they buy bar stool content and ends up being this juggernaut with commerce they buy they bought exploding kittens and they bought meat eater and they bought surf flying that all these niche contact rooms we had a guy on the pod the plant daddy i met with them a couple times there was like early discussions well you know three meetings with the that that i had with that the hustle and i was like what the fuck do you guys know didn't get that one right turns out they know a lot they they know a lot he just like slide a p and l across the table and he's like i'll leave you three minutes they told me the story and i was like you're full of shit you don't know what you're talking about like do you you you know you're talking about my company right i was like you know like like the but they were right i think what the the the premise was correct but i yeah i i i i didn't have that confidence that we're talking about now and dude they made a fortune because the market overlooked these brands these brands were not valued like high flying tech companies but they became you know multi hundred million billion dollar brands and i really admire what tc g did become they're the best there's so many investors that all love to sound like they're smart and contra and they're all just what's your thesis is ai the you know ai is gonna be the future of everything it's like okay you you're not wrong in that but like there's something really impressive about somebody who looked at just like this magazine or this blog or tomorrow who was on our pottery had a bunch actually probably had three or four people who sold their company on the pod to to those guys right right and and they've been right and they've been right in a very very big way so i'm very impressed by them so to me that that's the principal fish where the fish swim so fish where the real opportunity is not where the fisher understanding and not where everybody or all the entrepreneurs are are huddled up this this fortune cookie says man does not sell chocolate he must become chocolate okay so does this mean three years ago when we did the first version of this event jimmy a aka mister beast had launched his chocolate brand feast and it was like okay selling chocolate to little kids i had the opportunity to invest i think at a forty million dollar valuation was like the the series a and i passed and like the beast empire or child in feast itself so just kinda thought about it i was i really get i didn't really know much about the chocolate industry i thought his involvement was gonna be like this normal influencer brand is i'm doing my thing i create my content oh my manager hands me this hey buy this smile yeah put it down move on to life so i thought he's just gonna influence it i thought he's just gonna hold it up and buy it i didn't what i didn't realize is that this guy was gonna go so deep into the world of chuck and end up knowing everything about chocolate ended up running this company like an absolute man act founder if i had known that if i had known he was gonna bring his in intent his full intensity at this i probably would have thought about it differently i thought he was just gonna hold up the chocolate bar and see how many people clicked the link but i was dead wrong so i wanna tell a quick story you were there for for one of the walmart runs right no but i have a bunch walmart stories so we're sitting in there we're about to record he walks in and he's like hey before we do this you guys wanna go to walmart which i realized like at the time sounded like a sort a strange request nobody's ever asked me on a on a mandate to walmart we walk in and he takes us to the chocolate aisle and basically gives a like ten minute master class on the chocolate industry right there in the aisle and while he's doing it he's not just like explaining like well this is how it works this is how we do there's our revenues this whatever he's also simultaneously restock the entire aisle like he pulled the cartons up to the front because they were like three and inches recess they were pushed back too far some of the bars had followed over they were crooked he straighten every single one of them out he puts the right flavors in the right spots if a bar was cri or broken he's he throw to a chief like hey can buy this i wanna have like we should only have good bars no broken bars up front and he would basically restock the thing but his hands were removing at a speed was showed you this is not the first time this guy's done this so he he restock it and one of the popular flavors was out and so he takes out his phone and he's like i have a badge and so he just badges into the back of walmart and goes and gets the box himself and restock and i was like does any vendor get to do that he was like not exactly but they know like i like i just do this i care i really care and it kinda two things stood out to me the first was obvious which was when the high intensity obsessive people wanna win they do the same things that the rest of us do with the knob dialed up to twelve like they just they just take the knob and they just crank it past even where you think it about and and for example he was like i think you were there he's telling the story about like missing a flight or something like this he like told a story about how apparently he flew to dc and had a connecting flight to north carolina or something wherever he lived and he was like you know what screw it i'm driving from dc to greenville north carolina it's normally like i don't know a three hour drive or something but i noticed that there's fourteen walmart in between on that route i'm gonna stop at every single one of them to learn and it turned like a three hour drive into like you know a twenty hour drive and he told me at one point he goes i have scanned i guess he's got some app where you scanned things in walmart and it teaches you about each sku he said he scanned every single product in walmart and i don't know if he was like if someone said oh no i've scanned all of them you'd be like oh so it's like saying it's a thousand degrees outside or just exaggerating but with him i was like oh i bet you you literally have scanned every single one of them in the podcast we did he was like yeah like know we wanna do a thing where you buy every item in walmart for somebody in a video he's like you know but it it's sixteen point two million dollars it's like he knew the actual cost of the total total inventory if you bought one of everything in walmart like what it costs to forgot what the number was but so but i don't wanna make this just a jimmy because there was another guy who was a top seller in target yeah man i heard them nerd out it was wild he took us to this shelf and he was like this shelf right here he's he giving us a tour of target and it shows you how the store works he's like this shelf right here is the high the most profitable shelf and target is the highest profit per square inch which is how target measures you know success and he's giving us this target masterclass class and we're like are you also in walmart he's it again we're walmart but we're not doing so well and i asked him what's exciting for you coming up and this guy runs a billion dollar plus company i assumed he was just gonna say i've got some board meetings to line up i'm going i'm taking the family to to the aspen and he goes actually i'm working the next three weeks as a walmart associate i was like what and he goes yeah i'm i'm gonna be he's goes our sales in walmart are not the same as in target and i've have been trying to figure out why what i found remarkable is that you expect the people who are the most busy the most accomplished the most high net worth to be above these tasks jimmy restock the skews himself this other guy won't going to be a walmart associate for three weeks you know they don't have to do it any of this but they're gonna do it anyways they're not just doing it now now that they're success that's how they got here and so that was the first really big takeaway from this whole thing was the intensity with which certain people play the game of business and how that leads to success that guy who you're referring to was the quiet person there or one of and there was a point where i was hanging out with him he goes can i get your guys opinion you know i thinking i'm thinking about potentially like making some type of business move which would value us at this valuation and we were like what valuation and it was like in the billions and we were like do do you know who we are why are you asking us this question like what like what are you what are you talking about man i'd like you i don't know who you asked this question to but that like he was the most like humble person there and he was crazy successful it was pretty wild that that guy who you're talking about alright i have one confidence beats iq so you know there are a lot of like really successful people out there like when i read warren buffett biography he he does the opposite where he was like oh you know i'm just the guy is like did your you're oh downplay playing them yeah right you're a baby genius like he was like when he was like four he was like making ten grand a month selling pepsi but in general the group of people who we had there there were some people for sure who are genius i think jimmy is one of them actually i i think when you talk to him you know he's like brilliant but and like mario from oscar was one of a mario c founded a company called oscar which is a health insurance company which is one of the hardest things ever able to do it's worth publicly traded four billion dollars so he's like the man and he doesn't even speak english or or he does that's a second language so like he y he's from germany so magic genius dude imagine going to germany and revolution the german health care buyer you know what i mean like it's it's pretty wild extra degree of difficulty just go to someone else's mother land and fix their shit yeah which is wild but you know he was a genius but in general did the wealthiest people there i noticed we're not even close to the smartest and here's an example one of the billion there guys was there he goes man ai is just gonna change the world you guys i don't think you guys get it like i use it every day and i was like how do you how do you use it he goes i could show you right now and he pulls out his phone and he talks to chat gb he goes hey chat gb you know i have a question and he like starts like reading a question to it and then he's like now watch how amazing it is and he like it repeats the answer and i'm like oh so you're saying that you just use chad gb like all the time like yeah and i was like well like have you like trained it he goes trade you could trade it like like he didn't know that you could do these things and this particular guy i ran a company doing billions a year in revenue i guess what i mean is like this the the the percentage of intelligence greater than me or you or someone else there it versus impact our net worth was not like that it it wasn't core totally i totally totally agree with that which is the when you sit in a room like this two things happen one you just get to sample like it's costco and it's new at costco and you're just getting to sample different oh what do you do oh wow you seem kinda stressed out gotcha like not interested in going down that aisle yeah you seem like you're having a lot of fun do you do how do you think about this you got kids too how are you doing both right and you get to sample people's lifestyle when you hang out with them like this for like you know forty eight hours straight on top of that you also get to do the measuring stick thing which kinda sucks because you're measuring yourself against like some of the most creative successful ambitious people in the world but a big part of it is you're trying to figure out the diff right it's like those see there's is little children's games is two pictures what's the difference between these two pictures and on one side is me and they're other side is them and i'm always looking at what's the difference and sometimes if it's like ama mar or whatever it's like oh cool like his brain has an extra library in it there's an extra wing that somebody donated to that brain alright cool like i can i can live with that i can sleep easy but there were other people where it was like oh it just seems like they didn't limit themselves that's what i mean just kinda went for it or they have their courage was just a little bit higher supply than mine and you're right that when you look at the diff very very rarely was the diff these people are smarter than me or they had some advantages i didn't have coming up right it's like in fact it was usually the opposite it's was like damn they had this huge ship on the shoulder because their dad wasn't around and because of this happened and they were d it there's a bunch over there they were d dude i wish i was d yeah was the goal it's d dude every d guy there somehow was a good freestyle rapper do you know that like not only rich but also cool in a group of of men huddled around together right like yeah not i wish i was charismatic like a d guy like it's crazy it's like if you're if you're if it's like if you're blind you're a good like piano player and if you're d forensics you're like the most charismatic eye earth yeah exactly i have a related point which is i just wrote these two words i don't if you give me this i am i am so my trainer has a like a clothing brand that he creates it's called super conscious so one of the shirts he gave me that from super my favorite shirt it just on the side it just says i am and then it's after and underneath it says the two most important words in the english language for whatever comes after them will define your life if you think you are destined for greatness if you think you belong at that table you make different decisions along as the and then it becomes sort of self fulfilling right you'll work at a different speed you'll take different risks you will you will go for it in a different way several conversations i had at this event where i realize damn a lot of the a lot of the downstream decisions start with the little voice in your head the little director of your movie who's deciding like what kind of movie is this is this like a indie budget is this a tragedy is this a comedy are you a joke or is this a hero is this a marvel movie are you the hero save in the world right and like i'm not saying one is better than the other but you get to decide with that little voice in your head is gonna tell you because the director says you know what happens in the story where you stand where what you say all of those things and i thought damn a lot of what i'm seeing in how people are living their lives and what they're doing differently comes from the little voice in their head just has a different script in mind for that what their life is all about the i am statement or like here's a small example how about jesse bring his son the jesse had like brought his son and he had two guys and i was like what do guys do he's like oh we bring these sauna like whenever he wants to go asana hot yeah he's like whenever we go when he wants to go to like a conference or something like asana is like a really cool way to like create a bonding experience it was by the way just chilling him the sauna was freaking awesome and i was like wait jesse you got these two guys who's just like job like trail around this like sauna like across the country to break events that's the coolest thing i've ever heard he's was like yeah it's a great we get to hang into sauna i was like yes and that's like another example of like intensity but like on a more relatable scale right alright i have one you could take your billions and shove it up your ass seneca put yeah put that on a on one of those inspirational posters that you see your office there is this one guy who was one of the first investors in a variety of elon companies and presumably a billionaire like you know investing in tesla at a sixty million dollar valuation i or a hundred million dollar valuation you know i don't know what that is that like i is that like a hundred thousand times so something like that yeah we we don't do public math yeah like a now it's now trillion dollar company yeah so it work it's a big deal you know there was this funny story where this guy was telling a story about working really hard and like he was grinding and his kid was sick and he's like gotta take a week off to like go and help my kid and you know that was a big deal because i working so hard and then this other guy came and goes you know how you guys are all talking about working sixteen hours weeks a sixteen hours a day on your companies right now i'm doing that as well but my company is my family and i have retired from business and i work sixteen hours a a day as the ceo of my family and when he said that i was like this is awesome and he i imagine he was exaggerating a little bit because i imagine he still does some type of deal making or something like that you know i don't know him well enough to know but i thought it was so cool when he said that and i thought like you have it figured out same with jesse it's these two guys whom i don't i can't see the first guy's name but jesse also had the same energy where i was like this is this is the way and this is all personal preference you know jimmy wanted to be elon cool go do that but when i heard these this other way of talking i was like you know after this is easy to say because everyone was wealthy but after some number i don't know what that number is ten twenty thirty some millions of numbers not of it a lot of it really matters and just like having a good time with your family is something i really admired and i and i thought it was really cool that that guy said that and it made me realized that i was getting sucked this vortex of like money money money and achievement and achievement at whatever but when i saw these guys talk and their energy i was more drawn to that than anyone else there do agree yeah hundred percent i think when when i go to events like this my instinct is to figure out oh how do you win oh how do you win how do you win what tactics what techniques with strategies what approaches work and instead the better question almost every single time is what game are you even playing and picking the right game matters way more than figuring out how to win the wrong game do there risk people there who were like many angus cons where it's like they want to dominate like they get joy out of war and domination they wanna build cities they wanna dominate industries they wanna do that that's that's one game you could play and by the way no judgment great do whatever game you wanna play out i just wanna know what the games are so i can pick and then other people were like i wanna be ceo of my family full time and i'm like i've done a four hour stretch of my kids like i think i'm more of a forty five minutes a day forty five minutes at a time four times a day that's that's my ideal so okay i'm not gonna be ceo of my family because it i i would actually be miserable if i was a full time stay home dad personally but but okay that's a game i could play then i talked to jesse and i was like what do you do like what do you do every day now i'm training for races and i'm coaching my kids sports things i do public speaking because i feel like it keeps me sharp and i get excited to get up on stage and say some shit that lights people he's like i'm selling calendars he's like it's not gonna he's like i'm not making a fortune like these guys you know they'll they'll do that in a in a day or two a week what we'll do in a year but i i don't know i like doing it i'm doing what i wanna be doing and he was very at ease with that is that peace with that and i think obviously some of that comes from maturity but a lot of it comes from it's easy to be at peace when you're actually doing the thing that puts you at peace when you're doing the thing you'd like and if you're kind of i don't know like mas rating around trying to just do what you think you should be doing i think that becomes very exhausting and so i'm with you that figuring out what game to play seems like the much much more important question at every phase of your life and the game i wanted to play in my twenties is different than the one i'm i'm playing currently in my thirties probably gonna be different than i play in my forties and fifties and i just got gotta kind of reinvent myself dude there was one guy there he said he worked with elon and apparently she had to do a meeting or something with elon and like the secretary told him like alright you're gonna do this meeting but i need you to know that elon makes his companies make twenty million dollars every one hour so this better be a twenty million dollar meeting i heard a similar thing from a guy who worked with them that he was like elon would have a meeting but he would there would be like forty or fifty people in the meeting and the reason why was not because that makes for a more effective meeting but because it was like if the right if the person who we need to talk to is not in this room it's such a colossal waste of his time that will just fly everybody here and we're gonna have this you know forty five minute block and that way everybody's here because all of your time collectively is not worth as much as his his our which is like such a stretch is like it's hard the it's hard a fathom miss let me tell you a really quick one which is hard at work amongst this group not universal so there was one guy i you weren't there you were yeah sean like busted his knee in the second hour or something like that and had to s stay at home for like this whole one whole session and there was this guy there who is explaining how hard he grinds and then there was this other guy who was one of the more successful guys there he's like i work like twenty hours a week he's like once my companies got to be like some type of like predictable stable like alright if we just keep doing this for ten years we're gonna grow fifty percent a year hopefully like it's gonna whatever he was like started working twenty hours a week and he's like i wouldn't work fridays and it was really interesting to see that not everyone worked hard did you get that sense from people the thing i pulled from it was some people were basically operating like mono monopoly and other people were not meaning there were some people playing a game where the competition is so vicious i i like an easy easy example is youtube if you stop uploading the the game stop the music stops there's literally a million other businesses in that same exact space to the exact same exact thing who are exactly you want and every idea you put out there in a video somebody else is gonna copy and a lot of people do copy the the exact videos that he does and the exact script it's all public information it's all super there's no gate and then there's other people who were like yeah all we had to do was get to this like we just had to get this shelf space like it was one guy who was showing us a shelf at target and he was like basically seven years of the company was just dedicated it was just like hard work dedicated to getting on the shelf but once you're on the shelf it's almost impossible for anybody else to get on the shelf all we have to do now is stay on the shelf by the way this shelf right here like this little rack you're looking at this is three hundred million dollars a year and you're just looking at it you're like oh damn like wow one shelf and walmart one shelf in in target is a is like the entire revenue streams of like

daughter just learned my favorite jimmy you have more of this one yeah my daughter just learned how to say more and but i feel like this more more more mobile i was doing this ulta more more more can i give you some some of the negative ones how about the guy who goes at that point i was broke i think i earlier had like twenty million dollars yeah i tells some story well there's a there was a hilarious conversation about pre which is you know nothing more can be said except for there was an an incredible conversation about pre i was about to go outside be the me and someone else we're gonna go outside of asana and someone said can i ask you guys about pre up and we were like let's just sit right here i just wanna listen look just listen it was one of the that like next three hours was one of the most entertaining figures hours of my life like i don't think i've laughed out hard in five ten years like i was literally like belly laugh crying some shocking set setups people are the billionaires are not like you and me if you're listening to this billionaires exist and they're not like you they're not like you i would say is the mid meme was in full effect i'll give you what example so the way we played our basketball tournaments was three teams and we played and then it was supposed to be the you know the top two teams play for the finals but ever what all the teams finished the same record one like we all had one win one lost after i already played each other so i was like okay well which two teams advance to the finals and so i but is getting tired so i had to make something up i like alright we're gonna do a like a penalty kick shootout out so what's the most exciting you know like thing in sports is in hockey or soccer where they do the shoot out and it's not gonna take up a bunch of energy because like we're old guys and people are getting hurt we gotta like we can't play an extra game to figure out who's gonna go so we said alright every everybody step up pick every t each team pick five guys they're gonna shoot a free and then the team that makes the least like pressures on everybody's watching you so it's interesting one team my team was like this is a dictatorship like y'all are the five best to the other guys they're they're better than you these five are shooting who was the dictator well i was addicted i even think there was another way i was like of course we're just gonna pick our five best to do this like honestly i didn't even consider another method and i was the coach of my team because i gotten andrea i'm on crutches so i was like doing that the second guy the second team did it merit based and the the third was like kind of like a volunteer voting system or whatever and in the merit based thing well a funny thing that happened was one of the guys was probably less good at basketball overall made it in the practice shot and one of the guys who was one of their better players on his team just happen to miss so it's was like tamara are y'all really gonna not have one of your best players shoot and have this other guy's shoot i i was just watching i'm like i just wanna see what happens here i wanna see what happened with the egos i just need to know i need to see this like i was like you're sure you wanna it he's like no you should do it you made it if you want all do it and then like no i mean i don't know i think i'm gonna do it he's like okay go ahead and do it so so the guy steps up and he shoots and he makes it the guy who's probably like you know a little weaker basketball players makes it clutch it up and has this awesome moment and his team advances to the finals and i feel so happy for this guy and i'm like that was amazing i'm like i'm i'm glad that they kinda run moment he had his rudy moment honored it he made it good for him that was awesome under pressure i love i wanted everybody to have like gold moments during the during the event but then after the final and this their team goes on wins the finals happy they're holding the trophy it's all good afterwards we're all like packet up leave and he's like he goes up to that guy the other guy who sat out he's like hey i want can you view me go shoot treat i wanna know if that was the correct like e decision statistically and the guy's is like no and you already made like you're already you already made it we already won like your good dude you did it he's like no i i need to know i mentioned you know and he's like no like it's like honestly it's done you i'm glad you did it you made it he's like i need to know and he's like alright so they go and they shoot and of course the guy who's played basketball his whole life makes more of the f throws in like the with the larger sample size and then the other guy was like kinda head down for like he's got bummed out about it for a second and i was like what a what an intelligently stupid thing to do right like he wanted to know like was this a positive e decision was this statistically the correct move what does e mean expected value it's like if you're playing poker you can you bet your chips and even if you lose you're still happy because you made the right decision even if the result didn't panic so funny there's chances and so it i was like way to snatch like way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory and there was so many of these little moments where like there's this guy there who's like he's a total catch she's like smart he's good looking he's ripped he's successful all these things and he i i just thought that a guy like this could walk into a coffee shop and like the cooper barista would want him to talk to there's a i've always wanted to be that guy you know like this guy could have been that guy he could've be it could be so easy for him to just meet someone amazing and instead you wanna describe like alright i think what he did what did he scrape he built a program that scraped linkedin arc with a desired result he's like i want a beautiful intelligent successful woman or something like that i wanna have the things someone who fit his like heritage it and so he was like cool so he built a ai bot to crawl linkedin to then scrape all the like successful beautiful but like trained on images of women that he thought were beautiful like every woman who was like of a certain like look in new york who was between you know whatever twenty two and thirty or whatever he had like a date yeah he had binder of women yeah binder a bit is hilarious and then he had this like whole system for help he could reach out to them with like it was a amazing i wanna i go to all the details but like she had a dedicated iphone there he goes this is my iphone and i he goes i have two full time engineers who have built this program ram that auto dms them this particular dm on instagram let me send her a voice note i go you send her voice notes he goes i have found that voice notes convert better and like you he like showed me the voice as he told this whole system was like what's that thing called the ro check test or whatever see the blunt and it's like you either see like you know a killer or an angel or whatever his it was like some people like this is the most impressive thing i've ever seen and then some people like the married guys who are like you know fifty forties to fifties or are like or brother you're you're it's too much you're doing too much here you gotta just like just see a cute girl and go talk to it's okay let it let it roll organically baby it's gonna work better that way and i just thought it was hilarious i'm really i gotta go i'm supposed be speaking it's something there right i gotta i a jet i just realized i'm i'm way over that's it that's the pod i feel like i could rule world i know i could be what i want to put at all in it like a day's off on a goal less travel never look kim bag kim
