In 2006, Gary Vaughan put a $10,000 signing bonus into a single stock and never sold. Today that position is worth millions. He shares the simple decision behind it and the buy-and-hold philosophy that built his wealth. He joins Gav to explain why patience and compounding beat constant trading, the Apple bet that started before he even understood investing, the mistakes he regrets most (trimming winners, trading in and out of Google), and how he thinks about risk at 56 versus what he'd tell someone in their 20s.

Eric Trump: Name Anything Digitized That Hasn't Won

23 views · September 2nd, 2026

Eric Trump describes an approach built on conviction rather than precision, adding to positions on deep drawdowns while accepting that nobody catches the exact bottom. His reasoning rests on a pattern he says has never broken: name a technology that got digitized and then lost the long term race. Photography went from eight millimeter film to live streaming. The telephone went the same way. He argues Swift and traditional banking are the next in line, because something faster, cheaper and more transparent tends to win.

You NEED to Watch This Before You Invest in the New Robinhood Venture Fund

13 views · August 27th, 2026

Robinhood Ventures is trying to change that, and there's a lot you should understand before you consider it. Sarah Pinto (Head of Robinhood Ventures) and Rich Aberman join Gav to explain how their new fund gives everyday investors access to a diversified portfolio of early-stage Y Combinator startups, how it differs from their later-stage fund, how the closed-end structure and daily liquidity actually work, and the real risks of investing in an asset class where most companies fail.

Matt Hougan: The Case For Bitcoin At $1.3 Million By 2035

6 views · August 26th, 2026

Matt Hougan strips the Bitcoin case down to one idea: it provides a service the world wants, the ability to store wealth digitally without a government or a bank, the same job gold does physically. If even a small fraction of the world decides it wants that, he sees enormous room left, with Bitwise modeling roughly $1.3 million a coin by 2035. He frames it against a backdrop most people have stopped registering, over $40 trillion in national debt and more money printed last quarter than during the financial crisis.

Everyone's taught to wait for a dip and never overpay. Brian Feroldi says some of the best investments of his life were bought at all-time highs, when nothing about them looked cheap. He joins Gav to explain why quality and growth matter far more than an optical bargain, why the P/E ratio misleads more investors than it helps, how to actually read a financial statement based on what phase a business is in, and the Amazon purchase at a 500 P/E that became one of his best buys ever.

He joins Gav to lay out the one signal he trusts most for spotting a bottom, why Bitcoin no longer falling on bad news means sellers are exhausted, the momentum and on-chain indicators he stacks for confidence, the macro case tied to $40 trillion in debt, and how he thinks about holding Bitcoin through an ETF versus cold storage.

Bitcoin got cut in half from its highs, and Matt Hougan, CEO of Bitwise, thinks that's exactly the wrong time to be bearish. He lays out why he believes the bottom is likely in and where this asset goes over the next decade. He joins Gav to explain the one signal he trusts most for spotting a bottom, why bad news no longer moving the price means sellers are exhausted, the macro case tied to $40 trillion in debt, and the math behind Bitwise's base case that Bitcoin reaches $1.3 million by 2035.

Matt Hougan: Bitcoin Has Stopped Reacting To Bad News

68 views · August 21st, 2026

Matt Hougan watches for one thing when calling a bottom in any asset: the moment bad news stops moving the price. In Q4 through Q2 a sliver of bad news would send Bitcoin cascading. In Q3 that changed. Saylor started selling, Clarity Act odds collapsed from 40% to 14%, the cold storage hacks hit, and Bitcoin barely flinched. To him that means the sellers are exhausted, and from there it only takes a little demand.

Most breakouts fail because traders buy a move that's already run too far. Brian Shannon, the trader who popularized anchored VWAP, breaks down the full method for reading a chart the right way. He joins Gav for a charting masterclass: how to actually use moving averages as reference points, why a close above the 50-day isn't automatically bullish, how anchored VWAP reveals where the real buyers and sellers are, and how to tell whether you're early to a breakout or chasing a trap.
