What inspired Lucy Guo to pursue entrepreneurship?
Support for the show comes from Public, the investing platform for those who take it seriously. On Public, you can build a multi-asset portfolio of stocks, bonds, options, crypto, and now generated assets, which allow you to turn any idea into an investable index with AI. It all starts with your prompt.
How did childhood experiences shape Lucy's financial mindset?
from renewable energy companies with high free cash flow to semiconductor suppliers growing revenue over 20% year over year. You can literally type any prompt and put the AI to work. It screens thousands of stocks, builds a one-of-a-kind index, and lets you backtest it against the S&P 500. Then you can invest in a few clicks. Generated assets are like ETFs with infinite possibilities, completely customizable, and based on your thesis, not someone else's.

What fundraising strategies does Lucy use to create FOMO?
Listening to the top voices in well-being sounds like self-care to us. Audible. There's more to imagine when you listen. I recently snuck off to Cabo with my husband for a quick beach reset. We sat in the sun, drank margaritas, and did absolutely nothing. For the first time in almost a year, my shoulders dropped and my jaw unclenched. I'd love to do it again. Of course, the reasons not to pile up fast. My daughter, my jaw, my dog.
What unique money-saving hacks does Lucy recommend?
But you'll notice there's one reason that's not on that list. Money. That's because I have a cost-cutting secret. I know that hosting my home on Airbnb can help offset the cost of travel, making that dream vacation less of a dream and more of a reality. But it's not just me. While you're away, you could host your home on Airbnb.
How does Lucy navigate the stigma around 'work hard, play hard'?
And now hosting is easier than ever with Airbnb's co-host network. You can hire a local co-host to take care of the hosting for you. A co-host can create your listing, manage reservations, message guests, and provide on-site support so the stay runs smoothly even when you're away. You get to share your space with someone traveling to your area while you're off making memories somewhere else. If you've considered hosting but need a little help, find a co-host at airbnb.com slash host. Do you think some of this changed? Obviously, youngest, female, self-made billionaire headlines everywhere.
I would actually say no. I think it really changed when I learned to become very confident in myself.
You've heard the Wall Street lore. The college dropout made it big in tech. The founder who left a tech unicorn and built their own. But Lucy Guo has lived the lore. She's a college dropout who co-founded the unicorn Scale AI. Now she's running passes. Today she tells me about the wildest, scrappiest money stories you will ever hear.
He took my laptop. I sprinted out the door. Damn girl. Yeah. And I caught him like I would say like a mile, mile and a half in. And then what happened? I just like lunged myself at his backpack and tackled him.
Money tips she learned after becoming a billionaire.
So what a lot of people do, I could then take out a loan against my shares and then I would be able to take out a loan at a very cheap price and then be able to make money off of that and never pay taxes.
