How Peter Thiel Made $10 Billion Without Ever Working

Have you ever heard of a self-made billionaire who made it there with minimal effort from themselves? Whether they’re a tech billionaire, a finance billionaire, or a real estate billionaire, usually getting to where they are takes decades of grinding. But there is one guy who was able to not just make $1 billion but $10 billion without ever really working, and that guy is Peter Thiel. The bulk of Peter’s wealth was made through early-stage startup investments. This included the likes of PayPal, Facebook, Ethereum, Lyft, Yelp, Airbnb, Spotify, SpaceX, and Stripe. And the craziest part is that he didn’t even start off with his own money, he actually started with borrowed money from friends and family. He would take a spread on the profit that he made for his friends and family, and eventually, he had enough capital to make investments himself. This video tells the insane story of Peter Thield and how he was able to make $10 billion without ever working.

    It's frustrating to be up by nearly $4000 and then see it disappear. The stock market can be so unpredictable and volatile, it's easy to feel like you're constantly second-guessing yourself. It's tough to know when to sell and when to hold, and even tougher when you feel like you're missing out on potential gains or taking unnecessary losses. It's enough to make you want to pull your hair out! It's a constant rollercoaster of emotions and it's easy to feel like you're the only one struggling.

    Peter Thiel made money selling. AND YES he needed to WORK. The difference is that he worked on selling companies, whether he took them public or sold them to another company. And he knows well that it is not necessary to be the founder of a company to sell it, it is enough to have a stake in it. The same with purchasing shares of other companies, it is a way of selling parts of other companies without being the owner or founder of them. buy low, sell high. The difference is that it focused on VALUATION, not so much on the gross profit of the companies, what matters in the stock market is that the shares one owns are from a company with a good future valuation.

    Ensuring the protection of your capital holds greater significance than solely focusing on making money. This is primarily because once your capital is lost, the process of generating profits becomes significantly more challenging. It is comparable to the notion of "missing the train" versus the irreversible consequence of "losing your money." While there are various opportunities available, once your funds are depleted, it becomes exceedingly difficult to recover.

    Being born rich doesn’t mean you won’t go bankrupt if you aren’t very smart or you take stupid risks. Most great fortunes are gone within 3 generations. The Vanderbilt family (Anderson Cooper) was once one of the most wealthy families in America. They figure out how to piss it all away within 3 generations.

Let’s not pretend that finding people with cash and recognizing companies that would be a good investment and getting those people with cash to invest takes no work. If anybody disagrees, go and try to do it. also, he couldn’t have made any money unless he was doing right by people who were investing with him so he was certainly creating value for both the investors and the businesses who received those investments.
