    Hi guys, we used the wrong B-roll in this video at 1:21. We searched for footage of the capital of Iran and purchased a video that we thought was appropriate, but it turned out to be footage of the capital of Lebanon. We apologize for this mistake and have blurred the Lebanese flag in the video. We will be more careful next time. Thank you.

      Summary for u: As a successful investor who invested in early Paypal, Dropbox, he is investing more in delivery startups now which means delivery companies are profitable and innovative nowadays, and that’s something we should look out for as well.
      “People” is the only thing you should focus on, when you look for a unicorn company to invest in, not only their idea. 20% of the unicorn companies they invest in succeed, as starting a startups is very hard, thus its better to collaborate with others than do it alone.
      Immigrants are very hard-working than an average local so most of the startups from immigrants succeed.

    This is One of my favorite videos, this philosophy of fail fast, is really important for you to realize maybe this idea is not it, pivot and build what actually is an impactful, long lasting idea. Love your videos. I would love to see Latino and African entrepreneurs or investors in here. Much love from Colombia 🇨🇴 ❤

    According to most comments he was born and relocated to the best place and on perfect timing that is True.
    But he worked his butt off to make money to invest in unicorn and non-unicorn companies.
    See the important factors are working hard to have excess money and brave enough to take risk with the money.
    Unless we buy lotto tickets we can't expect to win the jackpot.
    One more thing he had a amazing business background which helps in saving money to invest than spending it all!

    Sadly Plug and Play doesn't lead funding. It only participates if there are other investors. Many of its accelerator programs (at least the ones I know in Asia) are simply partnerships with Governments or corporates. They are simply managers.
    Gone are the days when they took big bets.

    The Lord is returning soon. If you have any level of discernment, you must see in yourself that the enemy is trying desperately to steal the innocence from our children. This is an act of true desperation from the enemy, because he knows that his end is near and he doesn’t want to be alone when he suffers for all time. Find God today because tomorrow maybe to late. No one knows the minute or hour that Jesus will return, but He will come like a thief in the night, while your sleep. “Yet I am God”. The Lord will meet you where you are in your life, Please find Him today.

    11:50 It's dazzling to watch someone so accomplished be so oblivious to selection bias. His own story is replete with familial cultural capital (scion of an industrial conglomerate!) And then pointing out how great immigrants are because they have to learn the language? I'll set up a tent on the summit of K2 and then be amazed at how fit my visitors are 😂 #reversecausation
