Summary

Join Rob, Shaa Wasmund, Phil Graham, and Jay Alderton as they discuss the big questions in life and entrepreneurship. An episode full of wisdom, heated discussion and a bit of philosophy too! KEY TAKEAWAYS Anyone who has become a millionaire has done so with support and help. The definition of self-made can be argued as no one ever truly does anything alone. People see the end result of a lot of the work from entrepreneurs. But it’s like an iceberg, they don’t recognise or even realise the amount of work that has happened to get to that point. Entrepreneurship is still male dominated. This is changing but not fast enough. We need to offer as many opportunities as we can to encourage, inspire and motivate women to become entrepreneurs and be visible too. The number one reason you don’t see more women in entrepreneurship and business is because of childcare. When scaling, don’t worry about those who leave. It’s not rejection or a reflection on you, it’s just business. People aren’t talking about the tax impact of the cost of living crisis. Corporation tax has had a 40% increase and for high earners income tax is one of their biggest expenses too. What impact will it have on the economy if high earners then want to leave the UK because of this high tax? BEST MOMENTS “You can’t say I am happy in life, you can only say I’m happy in the moment” “There shouldn’t be a badge of honour for being self-made” “Less than 2% of all VC businesses are funded by women” “When you grow and scale there is more responsibilities and there is more risk but there is also more reward” “The cost of living crisis affects everybody” VALUABLE RESOURCES https://robmoore.com/ bit.ly/Robsupporter https://robmoore.com/podbooks rob.team ABOUT THE HOST Rob Moore is an author of 9 business books, 5 UK bestsellers, holds 3 world records for public speaking, entrepreneur, property investor, and property educator.

0:00.0	I'm absolutely not happy and not fulfilled in life because I think it's a momentary place
0:04.4	in time and you can't say I'm happy in life. You can only say I'm happy or fulfilled in the moment.
0:11.4	Hi, I'm Mark Pockaster, author and entrepreneur. Hi, I'm Sarah. I'm an author, entrepreneur and
0:16.8	a mentor. Hi, I'm Phil Graham. I'm an author, a broadcaster and entrepreneur. Hi, my name's
0:21.6	Stalewood and I'm an author, podcast, and entrepreneur. So we're in Soho Farmhouse and we're going to
0:27.0	chat shit. We're going to talk about things that are going on in the world, put the world to
0:31.5	right. We've got some heated discussions and topical points of view to be chewing the fat over.
0:39.5	First question, are you all self-made? No one is self-made. It's a complete myth that anyone
0:45.6	is self-made because you need a team, you need mentors, you need to race finance, finance comes
0:50.5	from someone. So no, I didn't have money that was given to me my mum and dad but had an education
0:56.0	and my mum and dad gave me an education. I'm very grateful for it. I paid a lot of money to put
1:00.4	me through private school but I don't think anyone's self-made. What we defining as self-made
1:05.6	as in being a millionaire on your own through your own devices, based on money or support.
1:12.5	Well, let's take it with a success. Yeah, let's take it with money. So I'm going to say I
1:16.8	am 100% self-made. How can you be? I'm going to tell you. How many styles have you got?
1:23.6	No wait, wait, let me finish on me. I'm going to slap you already. I'm 100% self-made but not
1:30.5	without support. So when you look at the definition of self-made, you can be vague about it and say
1:35.8	well nobody could get anywhere. No man's an island unto themselves, right? So of course we've all
1:40.4	had support along the way but I think the definition of self-made is did you start with nothing
1:46.9	and did anyone ever give you any money because I've never had anyone give me any money.
1:52.9	So I've never had my private education. Yeah, but not in this business and not in the businesses
2:00.7	that I did before that. So when I started out, nobody gave me any money. So you say you have to
