Short excerpt from a YouTube video where the speaker argues that a well-curated network and accumulated experience are more durable and valuable than money or health. The speaker notes they have a large network, slowed active expansion with age, but believes network + experience would allow rapid recovery even from losing everything.
I think the most valuable thing you can curate and build is just like a good network. People often ask me that off the back of the pod. How do you meet all these founders? I've got quite a good network of like thousands of stuff. I probably slowed down and like extending that as I've got a bit older like to my detriment because I thought I kind of know what I need to know now to some degree but there's always something more to learn and people to meet. So I think at the end of the day you can lose money, you can lose health and all this. You can't lose experience and network and like I could probably go, I could go to zero tomorrow. I'm confident within a few months I could be back to like a decent level and largely because I've curated a good network and I've built experience and I think those two things a pretty powerful in combination.
