October 28, 2020
Chamath Palihapitiya sits down with Social Leverage’s Howard Lindzon for this week’s episode of Investing in Profit and Joy. Chamath is the founder and CEO of Social Capital, owner of the Golden State Warriors and co-founder and executive chairman of Athos. Chamath is a busy guy who has given his time to the likes of CNBC, Yahoo Finance and Bloomberg — so Bullish was grateful and excited to have him on our channel.
In this episode, Chamath and Howard discuss their Canadian roots, SPACs, the value of social communities, eToro, why banks are screwed, Bitcoin, his investing perspective and advice for the next generation of investors: “You are the future. Be kind and intellectually curious.”
Chamath's company SocialCapital is a Palo Alto-based venture capital firm that partners with philanthropists, technologists and capitalists to create value and change on a global scale. Before starting his fund, Chamath spent four years at Facebook as their VP of User Growth, Mobile & International.
