#083. What if the financial system your kids inherit looks nothing like the one you grew up with? According to Silicon Valley venture capitalist Matthew Le Merle, that's not a hypothetical - it's already happening. Matthew is the co-founder of Fifth Era and Blockchain Coinvestors, and has backed over 750 blockchain and AI companies, including 75+ unicorns. In this episode, he breaks down why the digitalization of money is the next great transformation — and what it means for parents raising kids today.


We cover:

  • Why blockchain is to finance what the internet was to communication - and why you don't need to understand the technology to benefit from it
  • How to invest in innovation the right way, including why venture capital follows a power curve, not a normal distribution
  • The money values Matthew and his wife Allison passed on to their five kids - and why "money is energy" is the framework that changed how he thinks about wealth
  • Why the skills that will matter most in an AI-powered world aren't content-based - they are creativity, critical thinking, and the ability to keep learning
  • The real reason your kids are better positioned for the future of finance than you are
