The Pomp Podcast: How Investors Can Access OpenAI and Anthropic Before IPOs

AI is creating massive private-market wealth, and this episode breaks down how ordinary investors can get exposure before companies go public.

In the summarized version, you’ll learn why private markets should be a satellite position after index funds, how USVC offers public access with as little as $500, why venture portfolios depend on a few huge winners, and what to know about liquidity, LP stakes, SPVs, and misleading private valuations.
