They discuss the importance of having multiple mentors and diversifying investments beyond real estate into private equity and venture capital, especially in light of recent high interest rates. Cliff provides an overview of angel investing, shares his journey from stocks to real estate, and highlights the role of venture capital firms in startup funding. Key topics include the various stages of startup funding (pre-seed, seed, series A), the significance of SAFE agreements, and the importance of execution over ideas. The episode also touches on the potential returns and risks involved in angel investing and the value of relationships and networking in the investment community.
