  • Billionaire Reid Hoffman sits down with Forbes to discuss his theory on why everyone could benefit and find success from operating like an entrepreneur in all facets of life. Hoffman cofounded professional networking site LinkedIn in 2003 and is a partner at venture capital firm Greylock Partners.
    In 2016, Hoffman sold LinkedIn to Microsoft for $26.2 billion in cash and joined Microsoft's board. He is an investor in Airbnb, which went public in December 2020, and autonomous driving pioneer Aurora, which acquired Uber's self-driving unit.
    Hoffman is part of the so-called "PayPal Mafia," and was one of the first employees at the payment company that was later sold to eBay. Before PayPal, Hoffman created the (failed) dating site SocialNet, which some regard as the first online social network.
    He has put $1.5 billion into impact investments through charitable entities like donor-advised funds; Forbes excludes this sum from his fortune. He is currently worth $2.1 billion.

    Sage advice that's simple to understand and put to use. Opportunity meets preparation. Monopoly is something with no direct competitor but doesn't mean there wasn't any competitor. This demonstrate the importance of diversification and having a concrete understanding of a certain asset for investors likewise, how important is professional counsel. It's dangerous to play the market blindly.

      Because of our constant desire to handle things on our own, we are in a perilous financial position. Do I consent to the sale? Not quite! Why? Notwithstanding the recent economic downturn, I suppose. Delegation and a fundamental knowledge of how the market operates are essential. Technical and upfront fundamentals are never complete.

For the record, I started working with melisa in 2019, and she manages about 70% of my lnvestments, while I manage the other 30%. My philosophy is that I care more about my own money than anyone else, but she made me accept that they have wealth of information on current conditions and future trends
