I originally made this podcast 565 days ago and I wanted to republish it as a bonus episode for two reasons.

The first reason is I think that you're going to find Paul's life story inspiring.

He goes from people telling him that he's dumb when he's young because he can't read because he's

dyslexic from graduating at the bottom of his class in high school to being a billionaire.

And I think you'll find a lot of his ideas both counterintuitive and valuable. The second reason

I wanted to publish this episode again is because I wanted to tell you about this

fantastic conversation that Paul had with my friend Patrick who's the host of Invest Like the Best.

The conversation that Patrick and Paul had will make you laugh and you'll learn a ton

about how Paul built a multi-billion dollar business.

I would say a majority of the people to listen to founders also listen to

Invest Like the Best. If you don't listen to Invest Like the Best already, search for

Invest Like the Best makes you follow the show. It is one of my favorite podcasts.

Patrick is now a very close friend of mine.

Listen to it's episode 299. It's about the money. That's that's a conversation with Paul.

And if you're interested in more of my story, my backstory, what I've learned from reading hundreds of biographies.

I did an episode with Patrick, which is my favorite conversation I've ever done.

That is episode 292. It is called Passion and Pain. And without further ado,

we're going to get into Paul's amazing life story.

I hope you like this.

He grabbed me because I was a student and could give him some feedback about the student perspective
