David Scott Carlick, Vantage Point Venture Partners on Life, Love and Taxation
David is back for another visit on DishyMix. One of the all-time best DishyMix programs was with David in March '07. In his original racy interview, Susan and David discussed everything from the race riots of the 60's to sex on waterbeds. Find out why he takes his signature look from Ivan Boesky and how a lapel pin becomes an engagement beacon. David's conversation ranges from mood rings to sumptuous Australian Shiraz to the value of keeping intimacy strong in marriage.
In this next installment, hippy woodworker turned millionaire VC, David is both an "agency guy" and a venture capitalist. He has been directly involved in the transfer of over $200mm in cash from Vantage Point's investors to startup companies. David says, "This has, in turn, helped to create hundreds, and soon, thousands of jobs, and a number of products and services that have, I believe, made the world better, or are doing so." His current investments and boards include 3Guppies, AllBusiness.com, Datran Media, Grocery Shopping Network, Healthline, ReachLocal, Zvents and Multiply.
On this episode, find out where David thinks social networking will evolve from today. What book he most recommends to friends: The Reckoning by David Halbersham. Hear David describe the worst "fork in the road-bad-decision that he regrets and his advice about how you might not make the same mistakes... Susan and David also talk about the good and the bad of the Boomer legacy. Then you can find out the importance of shared passions and David's advice for happiness in love. Hear his guiltiest pleasure. Hint - it's a person.
Following along on David's rational, if not doable plan for restructuring the tax system: he would "replace it with a tax on consumption and a phased-in surtax on energy consumption, with the proceeds of the latter specifically allocated to replace our energy and transportation infrastructure with sustainable infrastructure." He explains his ideas and boy do they make sense. Find out if politics is in his future.
Once again, David delights, informs and entertains. Be inspired. Listen now.
