  • I’m not your target market, but I love y’all anyway

    I find Sam and Shaan’s banter to be one of the best in podcasting. I’ve been a podcast listener for 10 years, mostly business oriented ones specifically for women. But I was always missing that effortless enjoyment of actual business. The hard numbers, the opinionated takes. My favorite episodes are just Sam and Shaan but I have loved some of their guests too. They make me feel like I’m a part of their world when I’m obviously not as a biracial 35 year old woman. Great show y’all and appreciate ... more

Why would you talk so much trash about the USA and not invest in the USA. If you invest in china and other foreign countries you are lending to those companies so that china will be the dominant economic nation? Why would you want that? Unless you plan on retiring in china? Or do you have other reasons to spread those fears of ... more
