From Richard's exclusive Billionaires.com interviews
Lessons from Richard C. Wilson's one-on-one interviews, as published on each interview page.
- Michael Lee-Chin: Invest in what people will do next. He saw that his generation would shift from consuming to saving and investing. He chose wealth management companies over banks and insurers to avoid underwriting losses.
- Tom Rosen: Buy when the market is down. Tom bought a lot when the stock market almost collapsed and made a substantial profit. In the year that followed, oil and gas surged. So did some tech.
- Tim Draper: Teach children about money early. Give them a small allowance and have them earn and invest money in the stock market. Over time they learn to ask sharp questions about how a business works.
