“Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity." - Roman philosopher Seneca. Last weekend was the best VRIC since 2010. It was validation. Validation for the industry - and a polarizing example of preparation meeting opportunity. The...

It was the first time I had spoken to a Lord. We are two weeks away from the VRIC and I am immersed in conversations with all of our keynote speakers as we flush out content for the show and wrap up last minute details. And I just got off the phone with Lord Conrad Black. With Lord...

He has been the single most influential individual in Vancouver finance over the last 40 years. But back in 1968, a then unknown broker in Vancouver invested $23,000 to purchase a failing business with “no reputation, no money, no history and no talent”. By 1981, his company...

Please allow me to explain why I believe that the upcoming Vancouver Resource Investment Conference (VRIC2020) is, without doubt, the most exciting in the past ten years. Although I am no longer involved in the day-to-day to day operations of Cambridge House, I’m still an active investor...

I am in Vegas at the American Academy of Anti Aging World Congress. There are 5000 attendees here - I am the only one without a PHD (they actually created an exemption to let me in). Today’s workshop is focused on peptides, cellular efficiency and metabolic function. At 35 I still get...

Seven years ago I watched a documentary that changed my life. The movie was based on the Director of Engineering at Google, and one of the most famed inventors on the planet. Inc. magazine described him as the “rightful heir to Thomas Edison”. Bill Gates...

He was four days away from running out of cash and letting his team go. He was building a product that hit a specific target I had been searching for - where biohacking meets artificial intelligence. His company integrated devices you wear (think Apple Watch, Fitbit or Glucose...

I hired Steve Davidson when he was 23 years old. I was so broke I could only offer him $24K/year, with commission incentives that might get him to $50k if he hustled. I pitched him hard on the culture and the vision at Cambridge House, knowing my salary offering...
