I dive into evolution of Michael Saylor alongside his company, MicroStrategy, illustrating Saylor's rise from humble beginnings, the establishment of MicroStrategy driven by his tech foresight, and the challenges he faced post an accounting scandal in 2000. I consider Saylor as a visionary who deftly navigates through adversities, embraces innovations like Bitcoin, displays skin in the game, and always a willingness to risk it all.

The role of the family can be in providing support, gui...

Sellers explains that the demonetization of assets occurs when traditional money loses value over time and individuals have to choose where to store their value. He argues that the monetary premium for these other assets, such a...
