I’m reminded that while it’ll be fun for those of us in the U.S. to celebrate #Bitcoin crossing the $100,000 USD milestone, we can always find other major milestones to celebrate. $150,000 AUD for our brothers and sisters in Oz is very cool also.

Ep2: I speak with my good friend Greg Hahn, founder and Chief Investment Officer of Winthrop Capital Management. Greg on #government mamagement of the #GFC: “We had to come to our own view of how the machine worked. Back then we assumed that the #bank #regulators were on top of it.”

I’m happy to share the launch of The Generous Investor podcast. I hope to share actionable wisdom from #investors #philanthropists and #nonprofits doing really great work. It won’t be the only topic, but I expect #Bitcoin will be a recurring topic. For more: www.generousinvestor.com
