Naval Ravikant on Building Wealth
It's been five years since the Almanack of Naval Ravikant was published.
I spent the day with Naval expanding on key ideas from the book. We recorded hours of that conversation to share with you.
This episode is a portion of that long conversation that talks about Building Wealth
