It's Thursday, December 26th.

Welcome to Market Foolery.

I'm Chris Hill.

Happy Boxing Day.

Hope you had a nice Christmas.

Something a little different on today's show.

I want to introduce you to someone. His name is Zia Zaman. He is an

entrepreneur. He's a fellow at the Aspen Institute and I got connected to him by

my colleague Brian Richards. Brian had met him on a business trip to Singapore.

And he's a smart, interesting guy who is curious about the world.

I read a little bit about him, and Zia is one of those people whose current success is not surprising

to me and any future success that he has is not going to be surprising either.

In the same way that we look at businesses and think to ourselves, I want to keep my eyes on that and see where it goes.

Having sat down with Zia, that's how I feel about him.

I'm interested to see where this guy's career goes

because I know it's going to be somewhere very interesting and potentially game-changing in the world of business.

It turns out that he and I were in Boston at the same time during our college years.

He was at MIT.

Anyway, I really enjoyed sitting down with him and I hope you enjoy this conversation with

Zia Zaman.

How'd you like Boston?

I mean, you know what it was like coming from Maine.
