I have a question for you Jack. When you said that you know a friend who always went all in with all of his deals, do you think that its because he has confidence to overcome any obstacles that are thrown in his direction? .
I think he is the smartest person I have ever met. (literally) He not only has the confidence he has the smarts.
He is like the chess player that knows he is 12 moves away from winning.. Most people only see the move in front of them. Most young entre's only see one or two moves ahead. Older guys like me see 3 or 4 moves ahead. He sees 12.
Having said that, he is not worth 100 million either cause he is such a huge gambler, and has lost millions on deals. Millions at the table in Vegas, but he has always been able to come out a little ahead.
Always amazes the people who have known him the longest.
