Invest Like the Best with Patrick O'Shaughnessy
· Patrick O'Shaughnessy, Alex Karnal
[00:00:00] S0: It's an incredible room to be in. It makes me wonder if everyone could design their own room to be in, from 9.15 to whenever every day. It'd be a fun exercise. I know you're also a builder. We'll save that discussion for another time. Unfortunately, we're out of time. I have pages of notes. You and I do this every time we talk. We set aside an hour, we should have set aside a day. I'll go to my traditional closing question for this session, and I'm sure we'll do this many times together over the years to come. What is the kindest thing that anyone's ever done for you? [00:00:00] S1: That's my wife. I'm pretty darn hard at it every day. Every minute of the day, I can be hard at it. That drives me to different levels of stress. And I could be so myopically deep down trying to figure something out that I kind of just lose track of everything else around me. And my wife Cass has this amazing ability to just know when I'm at that, like just on the precipice of that breaking point. And she can find some way to distract me, make me laugh, and kind of get me back to neutral. And I think that's a big force and an advantage for me, because I don't have to worry about going so hard because I've got a partner that's right there by my side, that can help make sure that I could not just be going after the things I really care about doing, but having some fun along the way. [00:00:00] S0: Knowing Cass, I know that's true. Alex, thanks so much for your time. [00:00:00] S1: Thank you. I had a great time.
