Manage episode 514648237 series 3359471

- Why grades and degrees don't guarantee success in the real world 
- The hidden danger of 50/50 partnerships (and what to do instead) 
- How to start lean, lower risk, and still aim for huge upside 
- Finding the right people to work with and protecting your equity the smart way 
- Balancing family, life and entrepreneurship without losing yourself 
- Lessons learned from early failures and what Ken would do differently now 
If you're a founder, future entrepreneur, or someone dreaming of leaving the 9-to-5, this conversation is full of insights that could save you years of trial and error.
