I used to work at Yahoo. This guy was a tool. A cursory search on Google explains all.
Lot's of people made a lot of money with the internet boom, pg and Mark Cuban among them. However, they are still people that did not enter the 'you cannot comment on me unless your wealth is greater than or equal to mine' club.
Frankly, I'd prefer if our comments stood on their own merits (or lack thereof), but perhaps you've hit upon the next social media craze. Instead of simply using karma scores, we could multiply one's karma by the amount of currency tracked in their covestor account.
I would expect a good correlation between charisma and entrepreneurial success, of which being well-spoken can be a large component. People here often look to succeed by use of technical acumen, which is another trait that can serve you well, but don't overlook having someone around that is able to connect with people on a more basic level.
That's an interesting observation. I actually watched the video again to try to pick out the parts which could cause you to think so. But, nothing seemed to stand out. His manner of speaking was not distinguished in a sense, but at the same time, it seemed more like means to an end, and wasn't something that caused me to think any less of him.
I bring up this issue because I feel I am not "well-spoken" and am trying to see how I can address this deficiency.
1) Overuse of cliché.
2) Inability to use adverbs.
I'd have to review to go in more depth but those things are a little jarring to me. If you'd like to work on improving how you sound I'd recommend reading (a lot but preferable some stuff that has general interest, not necessarily fiction) and practice in a relaxed atmosphere. In college there was brewery tour nearby. That was the perfect place to have a dozen different conversations without anyone being wasted enough to remove any lucidity from the participants.
