Ep.267 How Netflix Turned Billions in Debt Into a Billion-Dollar Advantage

from Good Morning, Money! · host Rosha Entezari

 Most companies borrow to survive. Netflix borrowed to dominate. In 2011, they took on billions in debt to fund House of Cards and Stranger Things — stories that reshaped entertainment. While critics screamed “reckless,” Netflix was buying the one thing money can’t fake: attention.This episode breaks down the psychology of strategic debt — when risk stops being fear and becomes fuel. You’ll see why borrowing for innovation multiplies value, while borrowing for comfort drains it.If you’ve ever played too small to stay safe, this is your reminder: growth doesn’t come from saving — it comes from betting intelligently on your future.Send us Fan Mail
