Today's conversation is going to make you think about your life in a variety of new ways. You should listen to it in its entirety.
I first met Graham Duncan in 2017 in the offices of East Rock Capital. We had lunch inside of his beautiful library. The food was insanely good, and I remember thinking, this person is extraordinarily special. I'd been a little bit nervous to meet him because his reputation was as the most discerning people picker on Wall Street.
In the years since, I've been lucky to grow close to Graham and there are not many people that have impacted my life and thinking more than he has. He's one of the most generous people I've encountered who has genuinely made me appreciate life in many new ways. His profile on X reads “compulsively seeking new ways of seeing reality,” and that is an understatement. Among the dozens of lessons he's taught me, one stands out as having been the most impactful.
