The moment I saw @naval actually burst out laughing, you've got to be really delusional to believe this stuff.
Highly recommend reading who this person is before reading the thread.
It feels like the dodgy gurus of the 60's are back stronger than ever.
who is the person? never heard of him.
I googled and found he's some popular VC, do you know anything else?
He's involved with Angellist and a few cryptocurrencies.
Don't get me wrong I think the guy has some amazing insights and is worth listening to, yet simultaneously pretending that being a VC middleman with all this money sloshing around makes one a genius and involved no luck is silly.
You can make repeatedly bad investment decisions in the last decade and still be up a few hundred percent.
Take a dim view of people who consider that to be skill, we are in an unprecedented time with regards to money creation and certain asset prices reflect that.
