Shaquille O'Neal shares the investing advice he got from Jeff Bezos that made him millions “I used to go to all these conferences cause I wanted to feel smart. You want to be smart, hang around smart people” “This was when Jeff Bezos, years before he created Amazon, he said, ‘You invest in things that's going to change people's lives’” “At that point, I was investing in ghetto stuff and crazy stuff and was losing. I was trying to get rich quick” “He said you invest in things going to change people's lives. So Ring was the first one…”

FT @SHAQ @ArmchairExpPod

@Jackkk So he had this convo with Bezos…. Before.. Amazon? When he was just a normal guy? Makes me question the validity of this story.

@Jackkk Surely Shaq knew Bezos pre Amazon 😂 🤡

@Jackkk No way Shaq and Bezos only met after Amazon blew up

@Jackkk "Does it shift human behavior?" That's what Cyan Banister, one of the first investors in SpaceX, asks herself.

@Jackkk “hang around smart people” is solid but the real cheat code is hanging around people who already did the work

@Jackkk Oh damn, Shaq dropping bombs, Ring is a banger investment.

@Jackkk $TSLA

@Jackkk Just because Shaq says things doesn’t mean it’s true.

@Jackkk That shift from get rich quick to solve real problems is what changes everything in investing.

@Jackkk invested in ring before amazon bought it, that’s the kind of bet that changes habits not just wallets.
