I had a long chat with a forum member and we decided to publish it in case it helps people.

Ivan has a new systems analyst job starting soon. He's also helped a friend with his maths tutoring business, likes to help businesses analyse their data, and is passionate about regenerative agriculture.

From memory, we discussed:
  • My past role as an IT guy and what I still use in business.
  • His new job and what other things he's done and is interested in.
  • My thoughts as an outsider looking it.
  • How I used to pass exams quickly.

I'll get it transcribed and create some chapters in the video so people can skip through if they want. I'll also see if I can get captions uploaded.

I'm aware it's long so might be better as a podcast for some. I'll see about uploading it to Soundcloud too.

Hope it helps.

Curious what your takewaways are.
