Finding Peak w/ Ryan Hanley
The Secret of $100M CEOs – Cameron Herold

I think if you can somehow get away with, sadly, issuing currency and buying Bitcoin with it, yes, it'll work well for you, but it's still gonna screw the actual citizens of your country because you're creating more debt.

I don't do any of that. I don't do any gambling with anything. So I'll tell you what my 10 core stocks are. And I buy more of these almost every month, for sure, every two months. Some of them I've been buying now for 20 years. So back in 2003, my dad told me Amazon was too expensive. So almost every one or two months for 20 years, I've been buying Amazon. But I buy Nvidia stock.

I've been buying it for 49, 50 months. So over four years, I've been buying Nvidia stock almost every month. Meta, Microsoft, Netflix, Apple, Amazon, Google, Shopify, Tesla, and Uber. Those are my core. I bought two tranches of those of five of the 10 in the last week. I converted some of my safer equity stuff over to those. But almost every one to two months, I buy more of those 10.

Buy and hold, buy and hold. And those stocks are down 20, 30% right now. Awesome. They're on sale. Those are good quality companies that aren't going away. Very similar to what Warren Buffett did back in kind of the 70s, 80s, 90s. with Gillette and the Amazons and Coca-Cola's, they're good, solid companies that are always going to be there.

Those companies that I just rattled off, if you're a business person, I think you have to have a portion of your money saved. It's very dangerous for an entrepreneur to keep rolling their money over and betting on more growth, right? I'm going to bet on my company, bet on my company. At some point, the house always wins. So I think it's dangerous.

The main website is CameronHerald.com, and it's H-E-R-O-L-D, so CameronHerald.com. That has links to my six books, which we didn't talk about, has links to my Invest in Your Leaders course, the COO Alliance. I have a podcast where I've interviewed 475 COOs. It's called the Second in Command Podcast. And we've had the COOs of Shopify and Bumble and name it.

Thank you. Yeah. If anybody watching, listening, have got comments and questions, drop them down into the notes. If there's a lot of questions, maybe we do a part two and, you know, we can answer a lot of the questions from your listeners and viewers too.

Escaping the Drift with John Gafford
Unleashing Entrepreneurial Success with Cameron Herold: Vision, Leadership, and Personal Growth

So why would I hire someone who knows how to do it versus someone that has done it? I would rather hire an Olympian who broke a world record, who won an Olympic gold, who competed in all events versus someone who knows how to do it.
