Ep 21 - Self-made billionaire investor and philanthropist David Rubenstein teaches us his life lessons to protect your time, and how to build wealth, success, and happiness. David went from a family with nothing to co-founding the Carlyle Group, one of the most successful private investment firms that manages $325 billion worldwide. David also interviewed over 20 of the most successful investors of all time, like Ray Dalio, for his latest book - and he gives us the 10 traits they all have in common.
