Summary
What if the highest-return investments are the ones that reshape the future—not just the ones that fit today’s market? In this episode, I sit down with L.R. Fox, Managing Director of NEXT Global Capital, to discuss why he rejected the traditional path of “build wealth first, give later” and instead built a strategy around impact from day one. Fox explains why capital is a vote for the future, how the best investments often sit outside crowded sectors, and why frontier technologies with real-world impact can outperform conventional venture. We also explore his “buy, build, invest” framework, how he creates entirely new markets, and why resilience—not IQ—is the strongest predictor of success.
