Pay attention. Pain plus reflection equals progress. And from that principle, my company became the largest
00:00:07
hedge fund in the world. Managing how much? $150 billion. But I learned that history
00:00:12
of things that never happened in my lifetime before were important things to understand in order to predict the
00:00:18
future. So are you optimistic about the future of the UK? No. What about the United States?

00:01:13
individual handle it. How do I as an individual handle it? So there's building your financial
00:01:18
strength, flexibility, the importance of being open-minded and how to get more out of the minute, not how to work
00:01:24
harder. And I really urge your audience to learn all of this. So first of all,
