The Liquidity Event | Money and Finance with Shane and Ally Jane

The Unbearable Lightness of Being a Tech Billionaire


Listen Later

Oh brother! Shane is out at summer camp, so we've got everyone's favorite dude from Pennsylvania, Mr. John Owens on the mic with AJ. Our hosts are extra critical of Mark Andreessen's decision to invest $350 million into Adam Neumann's new real estate company Flow. You may remember Adam Neumann from his previous startup, WeWork, which is still limping along while Mr. Neumann left unscathed with more than a billion dollars. We've got Zuck of Meta and Pichai of Google whining that their employees aren't working hard enough. Let us buy shit we don't need on Instagram in peace, please! Then we've got a guy who hid billions in assets from the IRS and almost got away with it. Also mentioned: Malcolm Gladwell, Rivian, and Taylor Swift’s PJ. This one is offshore.
