Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy

There's something very beautiful about the scope of the ambition shrinking so narrow.

We talk a lot about, you know, the trillion-dollar coach.

It's this beautiful archetype of older guy from just working with a couple executives.

Now, he worked with Google and some of the most famous companies, but was apparently, like, transformative in the lives of these people.

But it was, like, five people or three people or whatever small set of people, and that's it.

And he wasn't doing it for money or fame or power or any of this stuff.

He was just doing it to help these couple people.

I think that's a really cool exercise to be like, what if the only thing I was allowed to do in my life, nothing else was allowed, was help three people?

Who would they be and what would I do for them?

Dan helping his four grandkids or something like that.

That makes me excited for later stages of life when I think,

Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy

the ability to do something like that goes up.

And that is every bit as successful in my mind and in my book as Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos, or pick the people that we all worship.

in the business world, I'm amazed by them too, but there are flavors of success.

And to me, that sort of devotion, even if it's to one person, to your wife, to your kids, whatever, is every bit as successful and if not more so, because that shit will ripple through history.
