What’s the biggest key to maximizing returns? Just like in the movie The Big Short, Gianni Kovacevic asserts that you follow tomorrow’s news and invest in the rise of “the spending class.” He’s the author of My Electrician Drives a Porche? and also embarks this week on a North American tour in a Tesla. We’ll share why on the show!
Of course, that’s not all. We share headlines about an exciting new movie theater app, scary news from Norway and some understandable Kickstarter ugliness. We take a Quotacy hotline call from Lauren about an unpaid internship, and letters from Matt and Dan about the value of wealth and tweaking interest rates on short term investments.
Thanks to SoFi and MagnifyMoney for sponsoring our podcast (also congrats to SoFi on their great Super Bowl commercial!).
