The give and take of Shaan and Sam is honestly delightful. You can tell they genuinely like hanging out, nerding out on this stuff, and trying to impress each other with their findings. As "an ambitious man with strong wifi", (LOL) this podcast really gives me a boost while I do my job in Tech!
To be fair, these guys drop so much value multiple times a week and do it in such a feel good way, i don't mind their ads. More than fair trade. And at least it is not an Athletic Greens ad...
That's fantastic did Oleg go au natural ? Or just kept changing the blood. ? Stem cells? I'm so glad what's he doing now? Peace out 🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴🍀
Side note: if you had business in 90s Russia, there was some rubbing with mobsters. Three options: either you paid them to leave you alone, helped with their "business ventures" or were friends with the right people, so they didn't mess with you. 90s milionares from this neck of the woods are always a bit sus, because of this imo.
A few things weren't correct on the pod - 1. Telegram does ads on channels right now, 2. Pavel received some of the money for VK, but less than the market value
👏 Fascinating insights! It's refreshing to see a list celebrating entrepreneurs for their intriguing journeys and bold decisions rather than just their financial success. Pavel Durov's story is a testament to the power of standing firm in one's principles, even in the face of immense pressure. 💪
On the subject of the 'Facebook of Brazil', 'Facebook of India', etc argument, Orkut was a lot more popular than Facebook in some developing countries. Google ultimately shut it down and pushed Google+ on them, which failed spectacularly.
I’m so grateful to live in America. We aren’t perfect but there is not a better place to open a business and thrive. These Russian guys are impressive!
I've been a fan of the show for years now and this one has changed my opinion a bit. Being Russian myself and following Pavel and Oleg, I can say that you need to fact-check better. Some details you mentioned about them are obsolete or untrue. So I would advise taking what you say with a grain of salt. Nevertheless, thanks for the podcast, it is still one of my favourites.
vivi nevo inherited around 10 million usd in the 80s... he invested a lot in the stockmarket since the 80s. considering the hitech bubble in the 90s and the initial inheritance which was 10 million and not 3 million as you stated, makes much more sense, especially considering he got that money in the 80s. even making 10% annually, merely 2% over the market avarage, would turn 10 million to half a billion in about 40 years....
#1 doesn’t count if he started with $3million from his parents. I like billionaires that started with nothing. Side note: Tom from MySpace is my type of guy.
It is so unethical of you (not surprised) for not citing/mentioning Tucker Carlson's interview with Pavel Durov, from where you get the most of your information.

I’m just glad Sam’s Hampton ad isn’t running anymore
They changed it with blowing their friends and name dropping investments less intrusively.

You guys see ads I see copywork
😂
You are on a podcast about business and you are glad he ain't selling??
Oleg tinkov recovered from leukemia
That's fantastic did Oleg go au natural ? Or just kept changing the blood. ? Stem cells? I'm so glad what's he doing now?
Peace out 🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴🍀
This Pavel bro is now my new hero! LFG! Ripped and no F given!

Tinkoff had leukemia but he had successful treatment and not dying right now
@@sukhinin Any talk about him having been hit with radiation poisoning like other people who spoke out against Putin?
Banger episode!
Thanks for doing this fellas! Awesome episode!

🗨️🤖
Million Dollar Baby should be the theme song to the pod.
This should be a series
I agree. I bet there’s a ton more interesting folks to discover like these. I only knew of two of these guys.
This is a great podcast, I think everyone mentioned here are very interesting people.
Correction: Telegram makes money by allowing advertisers to run ads on the platform.
Honestly shocked yall dont get like 3x views on these pods
Vivi Nevo looks like Jack Dorsey!
On the subject of the 'Facebook of Brazil', 'Facebook of India', etc argument, Orkut was a lot more popular than Facebook in some developing countries. Google ultimately shut it down and pushed Google+ on them, which failed spectacularly.
My God THIS POD IS LIFE CHANGING!
Your life will only get worse if you follow these two clowns.
Amazing start, The russian guy is inspiring.
Telgram 100% runs ads
Another interesting thing about Vivi Nevo is that he appeared in a Kendrick Lamar music video with jack dorsey.
Durov is the most under rated entrepreneur!
Great pod. Inspirational stories. Not regular Joe's but that the purpose of inspiration
I am so excited for the female version of this list, huge fan of you guys
"hairier and rounder" 😂
Very enjoyable. Thanks.
one of the favorite episodes of mine
The funny thing is that telegram now has a cryptocurrency making them billions A YEAR
Great “Thrill of the Shill” by Shaan 😉
I love these kind of shows, thanks guys
I appreciate you guys
Opportunity zones with the government sounds more like hub zones, which has been around for some time.
Super fun podcast. Make it a series

Guru ji!!

The insights on eccentric businessmen were absolutely fascinating..
need more billionaires you’ve never heard of. excellent pod!
the 1st place guy is for sure the most interesting
I’ll be on this list
Another banger. I dunno how you do it but you do it
I can say you more. Oleg Tinkov sold his ravioli business to Roman Abramovich
Wait is everyone getting ads on MFM vids now?
Have they monetised the channel now. Interesting!
"The most interesting billionaires you've never heard of" ... you think we've never heard of Tom from Myspace? lol
20 year olds now wouldn’t know though. Since they would have been born in 2004.
Want a awesome pod to listen to. It kept me engaged for the entire hour.
I loved today's pod
Has anyone more info on Aviv Nevo?
Anyone?
@@Ani0047 Anione
I'm on #5 and can't see how we top him!
thank you Shaan
what's up with all the ads?
Fortunately, Tinkov has been cancer, so he is good for now. Great entrepreneur!
It's his positive attitude and the fight in him. Excellent man.🇬🇧🏴🏴🏴🍀
Awesome episode
Time Warner doesn't exist anymore. It's Warner Bros. Discovery
love it❤❤❤
Nevo's looks remind me of golfer Jesper Parnevik.
Sam and Shaan are the most interring millionaires I have heard of
Does he drink some obscure liquor? Does he smoke cigars? C'mon boys!
#1 doesn’t count if he started with $3million from his parents.
I like billionaires that started with nothing.
Side note: Tom from MySpace is my type of guy.
lollllllll the bike photo
Oleg looks a lot like the trololo guy
Last guy is totally mosaad and epstien besty probably
Killer hoodie
It is so unethical of you (not surprised) for not citing/mentioning Tucker Carlson's interview with Pavel Durov, from where you get the most of your information.
Bohemian Grove ? Bilderberg Group, Council for International Relations. Etc
One has to have connections.
Shaan, what’s up with that hoodie, need one
Anyone has noticed other podcasts copy MFM content on new business you did know exist
So it's like everything about Russia
I'm curious on the last guy please let me know who he is
He doesnt look like Sting. He looks like Flea
Hey let's ditch what Vivi does for a living and give me his course on how to be charismatic
Or he looks like Antonio Banderas. Maybe Mel Gibson
10:34 😅 so if I'm watching this just to pull me out of my own life and getting nothing out of it monetary I'm not who you're talking to
So tldr Myspace Tom is the Big Lebowski
Oleg Tinkov, not Tinlov
Opportunity Zones started in the Nixon Administration under another name.
Shaan clearly watches bald and bankrupt. Babushka !
The speed in this comment section is at its own league 😂
First
I will be a multi million dollar soon!
19:00 he was poisoned and live killed
4:57 you said what are your principles with 300 million on the line and you already know you have to flee lol who are you
Sam’s about to get a lot of groypers messaging him
DVDASA all day.
Дуров, верни стену! ✊
Maybe he's the new Epstein or Lana Del Ray.
@shaan. ofcourse you can ride a bike slow enough. ask europeans. Americans can only sit on a bike.
Nobody gives him 41:05 credit for putting black man in office 😂
MySpace = Barack Obama
Lets fucking goooo ❤️🔥🚀
Tell Sam to come get a puppy 🐶 from me!
But Tom Anderson is not a billionaire…
The whining about ads is weak AF
❤❤❤
1:40 Shaan calling Africa a country 😆 😂
* orders ravioli from russia*
Adding ads to the pod is not cool..
My guy, you're getting a free pod with tons of value.
Are we not entrepreneurs watching this? Surely you understand monetisation. C’mon, dude!
Get yourself in the bin.
CZcams premium ftw
Not understanding how internet works is not cool
Yo boy is 1st again
Dammmn u fast!!!
@@fiftyseventh thank you, my gf says that to me all the time.
@@faisalislam9840 🤣 🤣 🤣
6.8
Africa isn’t a country 🤦🏾♂️
Not first
Why is Pavel Durov still alive? Russia must not be quite that bad
because he doesn't live in Russia anymore
Shades of Epstein
