The Dow keeps hitting record highs, but too many Americans are missing out on the rally – indeed, are missing out on the benefits of investing more generally.

In part 2 of our discussion with Rubicoin founders Emmet Savage and John Tyrrell, Troy and Lee explore the importance of the customer experience when investing and how to empower new investors to take the plunge.
Appetite for Disruption: The Business and Regulation of FinTech
Should you use both sides of the brain – left (logic) and right (creative/artistic) – when investing? Does how you feel about a company matter, in addition to reasoning through its financial statements and other quantifiable metrics? In the most recent installment of Appetite for Disruption, Troy and Lee explore with Rubicoin founders Emmet Savage and John Tyrrell the influence of both quantitative analysis and emotional intuition when evaluating a company.
In March 2014, John Tyrrell had been Managing Shareholder of Hollstein Keating for ten years. He and his partners dissolved that firm and joined a seven-attorney practice group from the Lavin firm to found a new law firm: Ricci Tyrrell Johnson & Grey. From day one, they sought to draw on the strengths of both firms but also, to build an entirely new unique culture. Now, 20 months into the venture, the firm has grown into a balance of equal thirds: the original two groups plus subsequent new hires. John reflects on their progress and lessons learned.
John Tyrrell is the man behind the hugely successful Australian Abba concept band Bjorn Again. Years ago John was performing in both original and cover bands. Disillusioned with the dull live music scene at the time, John and his business partner decided to form an ABBA concept band and Bjorn Again was born. In this episode of Music Business Facts John tells an inspiring story and shares some awesome and extremely useful music business strategies. An episode not to be missed!
