  • [19:12 - 25:37] The mindset that Jake sees as why people he has worked with have been interested in investing 1000’s of miles away, specifically investing internationally into the United States, when usually most people would look to invest in Real assets closer to home.

Here’s what Jake shared with us during today’s conversation: 

 

  • Where in the world Jake is based currently: Chicago, Illinois. (But recording this episode from Rio de Janeiro!).
  • The most positive thing to happen in the past 24 hours: Getting back safely from a trip remotely working in the Amazon jungle!

  • A mistake that Jake would like you to learn from so that you don’t have to pay full price: Develop experience hiring and recruiting people. You’re going to make mistakes hiring people, but it’s something you have to do. You’ll have to interview a lot of candidates and putting in all that work is really hard - but it’s worth it!
