Welcome to the show. I'm Jordan Harbinger and on the Jordan Harbinger show we decode the stories, secrets and skills of the world's most fascinating people and turn their wisdom into practical advice that you can

use to impact your own life and those around you. Our mission is to help you become

a better informed, more critical thinker through long-form conversations with a

variety of incredible people from spies to

CEOs, athletes, authors, thinkers, performers, even the occasional Russian spy cold-case homicide

investigator, astronaut, or investigative journalist.

And if you are new to the show, welcome.

Or if you want to tell your friends about the show, thank you.

I suggest our episode starter packs.

These are collections of some of our favorite episodes.

Well, your favorites, really really we went by popularity,

persuasion, negotiation, psychology, geopolitics, disinformation, cyber warfare, crime,

cults, and more that'll help new listeners get a taste of everything we do here on the

show. Just visit Jordan Harbinger.com slash start or search for us in your Spotify

app to get started. Today my friend Morgan Housle and I finally sit down. This one has been in the making for a few years now.

Morgan is usually known as a financial writer and he really shines in that area of course, but today

we actually tackle a series of very different ideas and we maybe seem to jump around a little bit.

I think that's okay. It's a lot of fun, actually, a little bit lighter, a little bit less organized in a way that might make it seem a little bit less formal.

We explore success,

quirky billionaires, innovators, risk, financial, and otherwise wealth,

fame and happiness. This one clicked pretty good. It's a lighter fare. I know you'll

enjoy it. Here we go with Morgan Housal.
