Creating Wealth Real Estate Investing with Jason Hartman

Po Bronson is a former Silicon Valley journalist for TIME, the New York Times, and Wired. He was the creator of the $treet, a television show on FOX that starred Jennifer Connelly, and author of "TOP DOG: The Science of Winning and Losing."

 

Bronson tries to distill why Wall Street promotes male analysts, even though women do a better job. He shares his intuitions on how a woman will be successful in business. 

 

Bronson then tries to answer these quirky business-related questions:

 

- Why is home field advantage just as relevant in diplomacy and deal-making as it is in sports?

- How can the shape of entrepreneurs' hands be just as revealing as their business plans?

- What does Italy's domination of the packaging business have in common with the Harvard-Yale football rivalry?

 

The conversation then finishes with sociology as Bronson helps explain why younger siblings are more competitive than first-borns. He thinks that parents praising their children affects their competitiveness.
