Peter has this ability to crunch the most complex predictions and questions thrown to him into relatable pieces of information backed by historical events!
He’s slightly hyperbolic at times, engagement farming and openly/publicly insults people. I think he is a great mind though who doesn’t get that end of praise enough.
I don’t know if his assistant will ever read the comments to him. But I would like to send my warmest greetings to Peter from Azerbaijan 🇦🇿 I have learned a great deal from his exceptional thoughts.
@chesstictacs3107 I was shocked to know that Peter Thiel is known in some obscure Islamist country. But now I've learnt that Azerbaijan is non practicing.

Hi speaker. Peter I just heard it's rare to hear you. In an interview. You are over the top you know I've waited on millions of people food and beverage in Hawaii you wouldn't believe. I don't know if I've ever seen anyone that has looked quite like you. You're amazing I mean I wonder if it's your mind your way the truth the life you know I bring that up. I'm not like religious or anything but it's like wow. I don't get everything you're saying because my English language and everything but that's okay awesome interview. Thank you so much. I stumbled upon this.
I'll bring up something my mother. She still around she's 80 something. Really taught me a lot about watching my words and stuff. But you know one of those things are we going to hate so much like another country we end up getting exactly what we hate. I don't do hate service industry.same service for all walks of life and incomes. People are awesome. We've got everyone here. And such a fun system. What can we do?.

Peter Thiel is very reluctant to give his personal opinion and that is actually quite smart. He has more to lose than gain my revealing too much. Legally as an investor and also in terms of influence. I also think as most highly intelligent people understand there are multiple sides and perspectives on any issue and you simply must see any argument from all sides to fully understand it. Intelligent people are aware of how much they dont know and idiots think they know everything.
@@bloodbathybc bitcoin wont move up at the pace hes been used to. Guys like him have the ability to invest in companies the rest of us dont. For the rest of us, bitcoin will be an excellent investment
I think we can differ from Peter Thiel's ideology in one way or another, but we must acknowledge his voice of reason and the depth of insight that he put on the table first.

Thiel is definitely one of the smartest people I known, I absolutely admire his road to where he is now and also some of his ideas, especially the ones in the book "Zero to One" but, he sounds very confused, sounds like he got betrayed in different areas of his life and now he is anxious. Nevertheless, I hope all the best to him and I also hope he can continue supporting new projects and ideas that can help with the improvement in the United States, which I do believe is not in a good shape compared with 30 years ago.
Love to hear Peter’s thoughts on these subjects. Many cypherpunks and crypto anarchists have now moved onto memecoins, but maybe that’s outside Peter’s wheelhouse
@@gregestep5407 they do and don't. According to Alex in multiple interviews back in college they would debate each other fiercely. Although friends they are on opposite ends of the political spectrum. What does unite them,.amongst other things I'm sure, is their united sense of freedom and privacy. Is the stated reason Peter tapped Alex for helping them start Palantir.
I have been in the Bay Area since 2000 and though it still is one of the most beautiful areas in the country maybe the world the politics and taxes make it difficult to stay. The straw breaking the proverbial camel’s back is the “no arrest” for theft less than $999. The downtown and Embarcadero are getting a bit better but still a ghost town.
What was the primary cause of the homelessness spike in San Francisco? Tech money. Who kicked out the cultural producers in San Francisco? Tech workers. Public infrastructure was not only reliable but cheap in SF prior to 2006/07. So were rents. So were bars and restaurants and concert venues. Nobody save commercial real estate landlords was complaining. There was relatively little corruption. Silicon Valley is not located and was not started in San Francisco, it's 40 miles south. If they had just stayed there, where they belong, absolutely zero of this would have happened. A little reflection, Mr Thiel.
Lots of "all the other stuff" is because of social media and FB - and FOX. We're addicted. We're fed an algorithm of news and content creating the issues.Thiel would never be able to answer that truthfully. Not possible for him to do so.
No it's upstream of that, it's the victim mentality that causes these problems and you're making a perfect example. The media made the populace acquire learned helplessness on a country scale. A side effect (unintended or probably rather subconsciously intended) is that people become dependent
The "news" has always been propaganda, sometimes with more, sometimes with less competition. And it isn't only the media that plays the propaganda game. It is also their sources, most of all the most powerful sources.
steve jobs used to wear new balance. all these silicon valley folks are basically nerds and hippies. the bullying stopped so they think they are the king of the world.
Good interview. Btw, Andrew... what if I told you that there are folks out here more threatened by Biden's past PROVABLE authoritarianism... than by Trumps PROBABLE future authoritarianism.
Trump’s authoritarianism is only considered probable by media. Trumps ego is such that he wants to be known as a benevolent and loved leader, not one who ruled with an iron fist.
His intelligence is so fast that it's hard for him to even organize his thoughts for you... It's easier for him to just make strategic moves. Explaining why he does what he does and how he knows what he knows is really kind of a cruelty that you give to him on a regular basis... This is an animal in immense pain and I feel for him deeply.
The thing about Peter, he's not a psychopath. He's a true believer, and he's filled with rage. He's one of the most intelligent men on Earth and he knows it. The pain he endures is almost unbearable. I need to meet him in person.

Digital information-based products are fundamentally distinct from material products, and current economic theory has yet to effectively integrate these two categories.
I really value Peter's way of seeing the world from interesting perspectives that challenges my own opinions. I wish he would come to be interviewed more often. But *whisper* it can be hard listening to his stuttering and stammering.
Look at what Peter Thiel does not what he says. I mean this in a good way. He is massively invested alongside the thesis of the book the sovereign individual. Yet he no longer speaks much about it.
Correct. My guess is he's waiting for some AI profits to materialize to move them back into bitcoin. That or he knows the price will continue to fall before the economics of the halving drive the price up, so he's accumulating now or soon. You don't suddenly lose interest in btc because there are ETFs and Larry Fink is in, he knows Fink just cares about profits and has no interest in even meddling with the ideology of the thing.
@@kreek22 Don't think any of the comments above were obsessive, more so pragmatic. Don't think anyone suggested they're smarter than him either, you're just being an ass for no reason.

Thiel still struck in the past. Most of his talk now days are what happened in the past and projecting them into the present. Would love to see him getting over the past, and doing more risk taking for the future he always talked about.
He’s a VC, he takes risk for a living :v it’s not best practice to talk about the young companies he is investing in, he can only talk in details about the big names.
No, there is simply the question of what pent up demand may be left to support a price increase. If you held btc in 2013 you were early to the party, if you hold btc now you’re late to the party.
I think he needs the cnbc platform, solo, although i like him i feel wont be the same, kinda like Don Lemon, hard for mainstream to go solo, true soloist can make it big podcasting, (not a don lemon fan btw but anal is the same
6:00 why giving creative people latitude will encourage prosperity, and increased wealth creation society-wide 21:50 why California specifically SF is structured similar to Saudi Arabia
at the end of Trump there was a pandemic, so the whole world redistributed wealth (2020-2021) & then THE WHOLE WORLD INFLATED THEIR CURRENCIES, & you blame Biden for inflation?
surprised by peter thiel's push back and lack of good words for trump, i reckon things prob have happened in the back where he really does not like trump anymore. well, there was the issue where trump did way less than he imagined, and was relatively more normal as a president than he would've liked.

It's remarkable how open he is to changing his mind - like on Bitcoin or Trump - and to admitting he was wrong.
That’s not remarkable that just what PR looks like today.

interviewer interviewee masterclass
Digital information-based products are fundamentally distinct from material products, and current economic theory has yet to effectively integrate these two categories.
I really value Peter's way of seeing the world from interesting perspectives that challenges my own opinions. I wish he would come to be interviewed more often. But *whisper* it can be hard listening to his stuttering and stammering.
No he talks fine
timestamp with topics of discussion, please
Look at what Peter Thiel does not what he says.
I mean this in a good way.
He is massively invested alongside the thesis of the book the sovereign individual. Yet he no longer speaks much about it.
Correct. My guess is he's waiting for some AI profits to materialize to move them back into bitcoin. That or he knows the price will continue to fall before the economics of the halving drive the price up, so he's accumulating now or soon. You don't suddenly lose interest in btc because there are ETFs and Larry Fink is in, he knows Fink just cares about profits and has no interest in even meddling with the ideology of the thing.
You are not on his level intellectually. Bitcoin obsessives are consistently either midwits or scamsters.
@@kreek22 Don't think any of the comments above were obsessive, more so pragmatic. Don't think anyone suggested they're smarter than him either, you're just being an ass for no reason.
IN KARP I TRUST 🥳🥳✌️✌️✌️
Peter Thiel for President
Stagnation leads to polarization in USA 🇺🇸
The internet has been the worst thing to happen to humanity, jobs, economic prospects, mental health, and locality. Bring back the small business owner who is autonomous like the local electrician who works for a small company, like the local coffee shop owner, who sells old books on the side, like the family pharmacy, like the local hospital, like the local hotel, like the local factory, like the local brewery, like the local hardware store, like the local convenience store, like the local smoke shop, like the local bar, like the local theme park, like the local ski resort, like the local electronics store, like the local clothing brand, like the local tailor................... The internet has destroyed locality and I wouldn't mind seeing it gone forever......
Does anyone know, which model of ASICS shoes is Peter wearing? Thx

The kids screen time is truly shocking these people hate us
you hate yourself
peter is a class act. if you have a problem with him, you're not smart enough
Listening to Peter Thiel, you see how his speech pattern inspired Elon Musk. His perspective on DEI is so nuts.
am here for the moment Peter sends a message to Bob ... if he is in the room?
This is too much information. What a great interview, what a great insight! Peter Thiel....eine Offenbarung.
Thiel still struck in the past. Most of his talk now days are what happened in the past and projecting them into the present. Would love to see him getting over the past, and doing more risk taking for the future he always talked about.
He’s a VC, he takes risk for a living :v it’s not best practice to talk about the young companies he is investing in, he can only talk in details about the big names.
awesome
He clearly sold the majority of his Bitcoin near the bottom and is now coping hard
That is my suspicion too because it is far too common the case.
😂
No, there is simply the question of what pent up demand may be left to support a price increase. If you held btc in 2013 you were early to the party, if you hold btc now you’re late to the party.
Cant wait for the day Andrew leaves CNBC to start his own podcast. Hes grown out of his role at CNBC hes bigger than them.
His ego has grown. Yea, there aren’t nearly enough podcasts lol😂
@@mikerusso7095 lotta shit podcasts. Only handful of ones worth watching
I think he needs the cnbc platform, solo, although i like him i feel wont be the same, kinda like Don Lemon, hard for mainstream to go solo, true soloist can make it big podcasting, (not a don lemon fan btw but anal is the same

The stock market was great under Trump - but everyone was better off because prices didn’t go up 40%.
at the end of Trump there was a pandemic, so the whole world redistributed wealth (2020-2021) & then THE WHOLE WORLD INFLATED THEIR CURRENCIES, & you blame Biden for inflation?
The man is a stutter machine
thats okay, hes smarter than anyone else in the room. This is not uncommon for people who are in the top 1% in math skills
@@davidanalyst671 That very well may be true. It doesn’t make it any easier to listen to.
The "ums" though 🤦🏼♂️
What's wrong with that?
The interviewer is very disconnected from reality... He is what's wrong with this country, "but line go up!!!"
surprised by peter thiel's push back and lack of good words for trump,
i reckon things prob have happened in the back where he really does not like trump anymore.
well, there was the issue where trump did way less than he imagined, and was relatively more normal as a president than he would've liked.
Trump wasn't right wing enough for him.
@@SzTz100 Also not effective. Like he said- it's more of a spectacle than any real action. Trump is a showman not an executive
It was a clownshow that ended with lockdown
Thiel didn't expect the deep state to rise out of the deep and attack Trump on the surface, shameless and evil and stupid in its tactics.
Nice
This guy is a monster
his lag and stuttering around election questions increased significantly.
Peter Thiel’s eyes look so tired. When I see him like this I assume he’s been spending long nights trying to dominate the future. 😅
10:39 ❤🎉
Dope
