Masters Of Scale With Reid Hoffman

Think you've raised enough money for your startup? Think again. You have to run through a minefield of unexpected expenses as an entrepreneur.

Cameo appearances: Selina Tobaccowala (Evite, Gixo), Daniel Kahneman (Nobel-winning psychologist), Brian Chesky (Airbnb), and Amos Kedmey (Wine and Cheese Place).Read a transcript of this interview at: https://mastersofscale.com/mariam-naficy-the-money-episode/Subscribe to the Masters of Scale weekly newsletter: https://mastersofscale.com/subscribeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/pr
