Welcome to another episode of everyone’s favorite ramshackle financial podcast. Shane is out this week so we’ve got Mr. Kurtis in the hot seat. Big billionaire news this week as the founder of the puffy financial bro vest company Patagonia decides to give away his three billion dollar fortune. That’s nice of him. Speaking of nice billionaires, we’ve got the Adobe acquisition of Figma for a cool $20 billion. AJ has some thoughts about the transaction and how it will impact employees who have stock options. This one is priceless.
