We're like...

essentially bounded his professional life.

He was very successful.

I'll give a quick TLDR of his life.

He was the person that invented how to count cards in blackjack.

He was a mathematician and he was a professor for a long time.

He wrote a book called Beat the Dealer, which tells you how to count cards.

The 1960s sold millions of copies.

He started the first quantitative hedge fund of all time.

He was one of the first investors in Berkshire Hathaway.

He meets Warren Buffett when they're both in their 30s and he gets in the car and he's like, that guy's going to be the richest person in the world one day.

And he invented the world's first handheld wearable computer with Claude Shannon, who's the father of information theory and another genius.

It's just like, how did one guy do all this stuff?

Yeah, he's like the Forrest Gump of finance.

That's a great way to think about it.

And so, but he was also like, he came from a real messed up family.

He got into weightlifting and taking care of his health.

before there was anything like bodybuilding.

And he said an hour, the way he's figured this out, he was in college at the time.

He's like, well, the way I think about this and every hour that I spend in the gym working on my health now is one less day in the hospital when I'm 80 or 90.
