Summary

Cameron Porter is a Venture Architect at Alley Corp, an organization in New York that originates a startup idea, hires the team, funds the initial 6-12 months and launches the company. Occasionally, they invest in very early stage companies as the first seed investors as well. In this conversation, we discuss Apple as a services company, the rise of the quantitative self, why Apple will need to get into healthcare, how switching costs get higher over time, and why Cameron thinks Apple may prescribe you LSD one day. =============================== BlockFi allows you to keep your crypto, put it up as collateral, and receive a USD loan funded directly to your bank account. They do loans ranging from $2,000 to $10,000,000, and they're perfect for helping you reach your financial goals of all sizes. Visit BlockFi.com/Pomp to learn more about putting your crypto to work without having to sell it. https://www.blockfi.com/pomp =============================== Our second sponsor is choice, a new self-directed IRA product that I'm really excited about. If you are listening to this, you are likely part of the 7.1 million bitcoin owners who have retirement accounts with dollars in them, but not bitcoin. I was in that situation too. Now you can actually buy real Bitcoin in your retirement account. I'm talking about owning your private keys and using tax-advantaged dollars to do it too. Absolute game changer. https://www.retirewithchoice.com/pomp =============================== Pomp writes a daily letter to over 50,000 investors about business, technology, and finance.

0:32.9	why Apple will need to get into health care, how switching costs get higher over time, and why Cameron
0:38.7	thinks Apple may prescribe you LSD one day. I really enjoyed this conversation with Cameron,
0:44.3	and I hope you guys do as well. Before we get into the episode, though, I want to quickly
0:48.6	talk about our sponsors. The first is BlockFi. You know that I'm a huge fan, a user, and an investor. They've got three products. The first allows you to buy and sell cryptocurrencies with no fees. The second is you can deposit crypto and take out a US dollar loan. Or the third, which is my favorite product, is their interest-bearing account. You deposit crypto or stablecoin, and they'll
1:11.9	pay you up to 8.6% APY in that interest-bearing account. There also will be launching a Bitcoin

1:44.6	too, but not any longer, thanks to choice. Now you can actually buy real Bitcoin in your
1:49.8	retirement account. I'm talking about owning your private keys and using tax advantage dollars
1:54.4	to do it too. It's an absolute game changer. Remember, a new self-directed IRA product
