Video Description
Michael Saylor is the founder and Executive Chairman of Strategy, formerly MicroStrategy, the first publicly traded company to adopt Bitcoin as its primary treasury asset. He holds dual degrees from MIT in aerospace engineering and the history of science, is a named inventor on more than 48 patents, founded Alarm.com and Angel.com, and wrote The Mobile Wave. His company now holds 847,000 Bitcoin, more than anyone on Earth except Satoshi. He is one of the most divisive figures in finance, and one of the very few who has been proven right so far.
He explains:
◼ Why he says you shouldn't buy a house, and the tax nobody factors in when they do
◼ How he used ChatGPT to design a financial instrument that had never existed in the history of the world, and made $15 billion
◼ Why the dollar loses 7% of its value every year, and what that quietly does to your savings
◼ Where he thinks Elon is wrong about the age of abundance, and why money will still matter when the robots arrive
◼ What happened when the market decided his company's $55 billion of assets were worth nothing
