Jim EngleGUEST
That is the main thing.
Jim EngleGUEST
So for somebody who is not completely focused on technology, I think it's very important to pick out some people like Brad Gerstner or Lex Friedman or even the all-in guys or Darkesh and follow them religiously to figure out what they're thinking about in terms of technology.
Jim EngleGUEST
If you get this right, and in our new purchases, we've had basically three buckets, companies that we think have nothing to do with AI, like a Sherwin Williams, where we've made purchase there.
Jim EngleGUEST
We think it's a cyclically depressed stock, which was going to do very well over time.
Rudy YakymGUEST
You've also got a lot of people like the Dell family.
Rudy YakymGUEST
You've got Brad Gerstner.
Rudy YakymGUEST
You've got others who have invested significantly in funding Trump accounts for underprivileged kids.
Rudy YakymGUEST
I mean, what a wonderful way to ensure financial success for future generations.
Imani MoiseHOST
My colleague Eric Schwarzl recently talked to him.
Erich SchwartzelCORRESPONDENT
The architect of it is a guy named Brad Gerstner, and he has spent much of his career as an investor primarily in the tech space.
Erich SchwartzelCORRESPONDENT
When I would talk to Brad, I noticed that he often spoke in the language of Silicon Valley or the tech investor world.
Erich SchwartzelCORRESPONDENT
He would talk about, you know, what has the best ROI? And his belief is that investing in the stock market does a few things.
Ram AhluwaliaHOST
It's like a monkey on the back of open AI.
Ram AhluwaliaHOST
Now they did that deal because, you know, last year at this time, Sam Altman did this podcast and, with Brad Gerstner, remember Brad said, hey, I wanna invest in OpenAI, it's great, tell me about it.
Ram AhluwaliaHOST
And then Sam had this really strange response.
Ram AhluwaliaHOST
He got really defensive and then Brad did not follow up with any investment after that.
Bri ClarkHOST
And that gap is today's first topic.
Bri ClarkHOST
Jensen sat down with Brad Gerstner on BG2 last week, his third time on the show.
Bri ClarkHOST
He came with a message for everyone running the bubble math.
Bri ClarkHOST
The bubble case goes like this.
Natalie BrunellHOST
That's almost 70 million children.
Natalie BrunellHOST
And now Brad Gerstner, the Silicon Valley investor who came up with this whole program and got Ted Cruz to write it into law, says he's working on extending it to everyone under 40.
Natalie BrunellHOST
Senator Bernie Moreno of Ohio says he'll introduce the bill right after the midterms.
Natalie BrunellHOST
And when reporters asked Trump about it, he said they are looking at something for adults.
Adir ShiffmanHOST
You might disagree with me on this.
Adir ShiffmanHOST
So you know about this Trump account that Brad Gerstner is? So a very rich venture capitalist, on the Midas list every year, does a podcast with Bill Gurley.
Adir ShiffmanHOST
I'll hardly recommend people not to listen to it.
Adir ShiffmanHOST
He's on it a lot.
Alex KantrowitzHOST
This is very interesting, Shield, because it follows this new trend of very wealthy people donating not necessarily to charity, but to children's brokerages account, which of course includes Michael Dell and his wife.
Alex KantrowitzHOST
And of course, the effort that's been, this is not wealthy people, but these invest in America accounts that Brad Gerstner has been leading where kids will now get, I think, $1,000 in a brokerage account to invest in stock starting sometime this year, next year.
Sheel MohnotHOST
Yeah, that's right.
Sheel MohnotHOST
I think it's a very cool initiative by Brad Gerstner.
Sheel MohnotHOST
He's been trying to do it for several years and really didn't get anywhere in the Biden administration.
Sheel MohnotHOST
And then did it, you know, he got in the ear of Trump and Trump, I think, immediately said yes, but you have to call it Trump accounts.
Alex KantrowitzHOST
Like, good.
Alex KantrowitzHOST
Like, they'll take all the stock, right? But investors today are going to benefit a tremendous amount from it, right? So these people who are giving these donations, they're like big players in the stock market.
Jay FreshHOST
You want to know? I mean, I feel like.
Jay FreshHOST
Things are starting to come off the tracks a little bit when Brad Gerstner, who's a longtime venture investor in AI, dog shit.
Jay FreshHOST
How do you know the
GherkinHOST
names of all of these shitheads on Twitter?
DeclanHOST
For our last topic, we tie all of these themes together to break down what this means for the country.
