From Founding Google Analytics to Venture: How did Wes make his way from founding Google Voice and Google Analytics to starting GV's seed investing program? What are 1-2 of the single biggest product takeaways from working closely with Larry and Sergey @ Google? How did Wes make his way from Google to Felicis and scaling the firm with Aydin Senkut? 2.) Market vs Founder: Why Market Sizing is BS: Why does Wes believe that the market always wins over the founder? That said, what does Wes mean when he says "the best founders have 100 year plans?" How does Wes question and analyse 100 year plans? What makes the best? What makes the worst? Why does Wes not do market sizing? Why does Wes not do outcome scenario planning?

Show Outline The full show notes for this episode are available at https://www.diyinvesting.org/Episode102 Enterprise Value Definition Enterprise Value = Market Cap + Net Debt or Market Cap - Net Cash Key Thesis: Instead of using Enterprise Value, I would rather use Market Capitalization and have excess cash be part of my margin of safety. When Cash > Debt use Market Cap. When Debt > Cash use Enterprise Value. This is a conservative approach. Why is Enterprise Value useful? Corporate takeovers because you have to assume the debt, not just buy out the equity. On the flip side, if you take over a company you get access to the cash box. This doesn't apply to minority shareholders. "Net Cash or Skip" Investing Approach Should you calculate ROIC with cash or without cash? Is Excess Cash Bad? Does a company holding excess cash mean the company is a poor capital allocator? WACC is BS Why ever bother valuing debt? I don't trust capital allocation at companies to be what I want it to be. Solution: Be Conservative Buy companies with net cash, but value them as if they had none. Buy companies with growth, but value them as if they had none. Buy companies with good capital allocation, but value them as if they did not. Buy companies with good management, but assume management is only average. (Because someday it will be) Summary: Be conservative when valuing companies. Don't give managers credit where they don't deserve it. Enterprise value should only be used when companies hold debt. Yet, you should only buy companies with net cash.

Peak Human - Unbiased Nutrition Info for Optimum Health, Fitness & Living
Today I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Zoe Harcombe has a PhD in public health nutrition, she speaks at conferences around the world, she’s wrote many books, and she’s a true gem. She currently lives in rural England and apparently has a great mic and internet connection because she sounded like she was in studio with me. She’s an expert on dietary guidelines (and how unscientific our current ones are), nutrition and obesity. She’s a prolific writer and has an amazingly informative site that I use frequently and I suggest people check out to learn about this stuff - it’s http://zoeharcombe.com - So let’s hear what she has to say! Before we start I have to give a shout out to everyone who’s contributed to the Indiegogo campaign, I’m so grateful. We’re extending it 30 more days and I’m sure we’re going to hit our goal if everyone continues to support us by pre-ordering a copy of the Food Lies film. http://indiegogo.com/projects/food-lies-post Show Notes She used to be vegetarian, but has reformed! Vegetarian bias is rampant Saturated fat is in everything - how is it bad? Our nutrition guidelines are BS Why 5 a day isn't based on anything High nutrition of meat, fish, eggs, dairy and low nutrition of fruit and some veg How you can eat a nutrient complete diet for $5.53/day How cancer is not caused by whole foods like red meat that we’ve been eating for millions of years Big fellas at weddings crushing rice at every meal There’s more myths out there we’ve all just come to believe including bad cholesterol, drinking tons of water, eating tons of fiber The Vegetarian Myth (Lierre Keith - great book http://LierreKeith.com ) all their arguments break down Cows and other ruminants are imperative to a healthy planet and food security Vegan/vegetarian food is raping our planet Allan Savory’s TED talk https://www.ted.com/talks/allan_savory_how_to_green_the_world_s_deserts_and_reverse_climate_change Grass-Fed Nation by Graham Harvey https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/28256297-grass-fed-nation No such thing as a heart-healthy grain. But eat what’s in front of you and don’t be a dick. Dr. Perlmutter Grain Brain - read this too, it’s great Basically universally feel better when people come off of refined grains, sugar, and vegetable oils Thermodynamics, fat, and the human body Why calories in doesn't equal calories out Gaining weight while skiing 8 hours a day and eating pasta and me gaining weight while hiking 8 hours a day and eating a bit of rice. Too much exercise hurts weight loss a lot of the time Are things getting better in regards to this info spreading?
