[11:00] Companies have three groups to please: customers, shareholders, and employees. What companies are able to please all three simultaneously?
[18:00] \u201cPools are for Fools\u201d - we should NOT be investing our money in anyone else\u2019s deal. We buy our own property, and then keep our profits for ourselves.
