A Note from James:

So, in 2006, I was starting this company called StockPicker. This random guy calls me out of the blue and says, "I want to be CEO of your company. I just sold Golf.com and now I'm figuring out what to do." So we meet for breakfast, and he gave me all these ideas that were great. I stole all of them, built up StockPicker, and sold it. This guy and his wife then started their own company, and eventually sold it for $800 million. We've been friends all along. Even though I rejected him and stole his ideas, I'm glad he did much better than if he had joined StockPicker. They decided to come on the podcast and share their secrets of entrepreneurship. So, here’s Michael and Kass Lazerow, two extraordinary entrepreneurs and friends.

This conversation goes beyond the usual success stories, diving into the reality of entrepreneurship, the sacrifices, the mistakes, and the mindset needed to thrive.
