Paul Graham is a professional billionaire scout. Similar to how a professional sports scout actively seeks out the next Cristiano Ronaldo or Lebron James, Paul Graham looks for and grooms future billionaires. And his remarkable track record speaks for itself.

Since launching Y Combinator in 2005, Paul and YC have funded over 4,000 companies – many of which are now household names, with at least 90 companies valued at over a billion dollars. Paul has successfully mentored and guided the likes of Brian Chesky, Tony Xu, Sam Altman, the Collison brothers and Brian Armstrong.

When it comes to making as much money as possible in the shortest possible time, there's no better person to study and learn from than Paul Graham. He has discovered the most reliable path to becoming a billionaire, with a dataset on wealth creation that is unrivaled.

I’ve been a fan of his writing for years and in this video I share what I learned from reading three of his incredible essays on wealth creation and how to become a billionaire.

Paul's essays discussed in this video:

- ABOUT PROBABLY SOMETHING -
Hey, I'm Kunal. I'm a Swedish founder in NYC and ex-investment banker (Lazard M&A). You can think of this as my personal business blog, but in video format.

I create videos about finance, business strategy, M&A and mental models to help me better understand our complex business world. Through my work, I've mostly covered tech, media, healthcare, sports and holdcos so those are naturally the topics I gravitate towards.

My goal is to constantly challenge myself to become a better business operator, investor and thinker by studying world class founders, financiers and investors. I hope this channel will help you do the same.

Just sharing what I'm learning along the way and documenting my journey - nothing on here should be considered financial advice.
