The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q And then walk me through specifically why the focus on FinTech. Is that just because that lends to your background as well?

A It definitely lends to our skill set. And when you look at Wall Street today, there are generations of, of, uh, knowledge gone. Folks after the crisis, they left, right? You, you worked on Wall Street for a few regions, post crisis or pre-crisis. For security, if you worked at Goldman Sachs and you weren't happy, you got a job at Morgan Stanley. For pay, banks paid a lot of money. And lastly, for the ability to create. Well, fast forward after the crisis, banks aren't paying much money, jobs have been cut, and you get better infrastructure on your iPhone. So, after the crisis, we realized there was a big void in the industry. The knowledge that has seen the industry progress from a pure manual process to an electronic form, those guys are all gone. A lot of them are gone, and now you have much younger people filling that void, and there's a big, there's a big bunch of stuff missing. Just a pure knowledge, know how, how to navigate the system. And I think that's what we bring to the table different than most other investors.
