TBP Episode 2

Company managers making unpopular but correct long-term investments, the best books for investors, how our brains trip us up, non-technical founders, and more

Welcome to the second episode of The Better Podcast! We’re your co-hosts CHIN Hui Leong and CHONG Ser Jing. In The Better Podcast, we want you to get better at this game called life, together with us. This podcast is designed to share what we’ve learnt about life, business, investing, and so much more.

For our second episode, Ser Jing shares an interesting point in the history of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, where its founder, Morris Chang, had massive capital expenditure plans that were opposed by its independent directors. Chin then shared his thoughts on why Reed Hastings, the co-founder of Netflix, is another example of “Morris”, in investing bravely for the long run when the world seems to be against him.

We also touch on great books for new investors to learn about the craft of investing, and how our brains can automatically trip us up in our investment activities.

Finally, Chin discusses software company ZoomInfo and how the CEO has used his deep understanding of the sales process to build a company that helps salesperson succeed, despite being a non-technical leader when it comes to building software.
