Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy
· Patrick O'Shaughnessy, Mitchell Green
[00:00:00] S0: It's pretty amazing what you've built. A very unique model, incredibly fun. How willing you are to just walk us through it all. I had so much fun doing this. When I do these interviews, I ask everyone the same closing question. What's the kindest thing that anyone's ever done for you? [00:00:00] S1: Pete Willmott, he's passed away, was the former CEO of FedEx and he was a Williams alum. I started a company in college and he was the first person that ever believed in me. I was like 19 years old, and he became an investor with us and the company completely failed. When I was trying to get my first job and when I got my job at Bessemer, he was my reference and he basically told the person they were insane if they didn't hire me because I was the most persistent person he'd ever met. So that's probably the kindest thing anybody’s ever done. [00:00:00] S0: I learned so much today about building something unique. Thanks so much for your time. [00:00:00] S1: Thanks so much for having me on.
