In today’s episode I talk with Kelly Iannone, an experienced full-time investor who’s built a diverse portfolio across real estate, public stocks, and most recently, early-stage startups. She shares why one of the biggest misconceptions about investing is that you have to do it all yourself, how to spot a founder worth betting on, and why trusting the right people is the real key to hedging risk and achieving 10x returns. If you’ve ever wondered how to get involved in startup investing—or how to avoid the biggest mistakes—this episode is for you.
