Episode 74 - Compounding

This episode started out about compounding, and how a small investment in a person at a critical time in their lives can make a massive difference. I guess it's still about compounding. But there are times you can take a small thing—an offer of space or access—and give it to someone to see what they'll do with it. It happened with Bill Gates and his access to the computer lab in his town. It happened with my daughter and her baseball teammates here in Bedford, N.H. Sometimes it's the happenstance of access and someone believing in you that really creates the opportunity for growth.
