Samir Chaudry’s Post

Amazing! Would love for you guys to explore how creators might play a role in re-weaving our social fabric so kids are less lonely and depressed. How can we turn more audiences into healthy communities that provide true belonging and not just parasocial relationships? I'm still in awe of how Yes Theory created the conditions for this to emerge organically and how the Yes Fam continues to thrive. How do we foster more of that?

How do you see the creator economy influencing the broader economic landscape, particularly in terms of job creation and new business models?

Hi Samir Chaudry! first of all, congrats on getting Scott on the show. I’m a huge fan of Colin and Samir and also a fan of Scott. I love following Scott’s world view, though I don’t feel that accumulating wealth it’s such an important part of my life (I’m not rich 🤣. I just have a job that I love doing and pays decent). Therefore, I would ask Scott what other KPI’s, other than financial security, does he uses to optimize for happiness and meaning in life. And does he have any day to day strategies to bring more live a meaningful life? (Please conside that I live in Germany where health and shelter are almost guaranteed 👍) Best of luck in the interview. Looking forward to it!

I love Scott's work. He has this idea that you shouldn't follow your passion, you should follow your talent. For example, he brings up that 2% of professional actors make enough money from their craft to pay the bills. He also talks about how only the 97th percentile of Youtubers make at least $15,000 in AdSense. Instead, he recommends that young/aspiring professionals pursue something that's more realistic and can make more reliable money. In other words, the more "boring" it is, the better. Would love to hear you guys ask/challenge him about this thought. Also shout out to Samir's LinkedIn, if this comment is shown on the show XD

With the rise of housing prices, cost of overall living, and higher education, has owning a house and graduating college now become more of a risk than an actual investment for your future? (considering the increased drop out rates, and the increase of free education that exists across various platform’s)

What are we getting wrong when it comes to the creator industry?

Samir Chaudry Ask him about creators who want to transition onto their next thing. What's the best way to think about transferable skills? (P.S. Scott was my first boss after business school. I am sure he doesn't remember me!)

Ask about his stock portfolio composition for growth and when he buys into a stock what he looks for and how he decides to enter.

Go full Youshaei. Pull out a white board and make him draw his money. Podcasts vs NYU vs Book vs Investments vs Board seats vs Living in London

There’s an intersection between fatherhood, building a career, and YouTube where you could find a question. As a father, I would be curious to hear his opionion on how to deal with a kid who wants to be YouTuber instead of a doctor.
