Earned Interest Podcast Business School for the Culture Pedro Moore

In episode 5 of Earned Interest podcast, the business school for the Culture, Pedro and Dion discuss How Credit Gurus are killing and exploiting black and brown entrepreneurs, teaching them to go into more debt vs. growing their business.



The business credit industry has exploded recently, with numerous credit gurus and experts offering courses and coaching to help entrepreneurs obtain business credit. However, many people don’t realize that some credit gurus exploit and kill black and brown entrepreneurs by teaching them to go into debt instead of growing their businesses.



We'll discuss the recent news about celebrity Gwyneth Paltrow facing $300k lawsuit over ski collision, questioning whether suiting someone is worth it or not.



In our take or leave segment, Fox CEO Lachlan Murdoch reportedly turned down multiple offers of over $2 billion to buy Tubi even with the streaming service hit record users and ad revenue.  Was that a good idea or not?

n recent years, private equity and venture capital have become increasingly popular ways to invest and build wealth. Unlike public companies, which are traded on stock exchanges and have to comply with a variety of regulations, private companies are not subject to the same level of scrutiny. This makes them a potentially more risky investment, but also one that can offer significantly higher returns.

​Before investing in a private company, it's important to learn the basics of how these businesses work.

​Here are the things you will learn:


​Overview of Angel Investing or investing in privately held companies
​Deal flow sourcing, deal selection, and preliminary due diligence
​Managing/Monitoring the deal; Wealth creation and Exit
