- 0:00Speaker 1: The donkey of the day.
- 0:01Speaker 2: Maybe. Damn, the hee-haw again.
- 0:06Speaker 3: It's time for donkey of the day.
- 0:08Speaker 1: I ain't trying to be donkey of the day no more.
- 0:10Speaker 3: They should be embarrassed by what they already did. I'm
- 0:12Speaker 3: not making these people do these things. It's called donkey
- 0:14Speaker 3: of the day, and it really caught me off guard.
- 0:18Speaker 3: Who got the donkey of the day today? Whoever on
- 0:22Speaker 3: that Tim song going to be saying a goddamn thing.
- 0:24Speaker 3: Every time you look at it, Timmy, Timmy, y'all, Timmy.
- 0:26Speaker 1: Don't do all that.
- 0:29Speaker 3: Anyway, donkey of the day for Tuesday, November 10th goes
- 0:31Speaker 3: to Jensen Hong. Okay, if you don't know who Jensen is,
- 0:34Speaker 3: he's the CEO of NVIDIA.
- 0:35Speaker 1: If you don't know what NVIDIA is, they do a lot.
- 0:38Speaker 3: Okay, they are the dominant supplier of the high performance
- 0:40Speaker 3: chips and supercomputers that they use to train and run
- 0:44Speaker 3: stuff like ChatGPT.
- 0:45Speaker 1: Okay, Jensen is worth hundreds of billions of dollars.
- 0:48Speaker 3: Very smart man. But being smart doesn't mean you can't
- 0:51Speaker 3: be stupid. Now, before we get into this, I want
- 0:53Speaker 3: to share something Warren Buffett once said. Warren Buffett was
- 0:56Speaker 3: quoting his longtime business partner, Charlie Munger, when he talked
- 1:00Speaker 3: about the three L's that can ruin a successful person.
- 1:04Speaker 1: Let's listen.
- 1:06Speaker 2: This morning, NVIDIA CEO and co-founder.
- 1:10Speaker 1: Warren Buffett.
- 1:10Speaker 4: My partner, Charlie, says that there's only three ways that
- 1:13Speaker 4: a smart person can go broke. He says liquor, ladies
- 1:16Speaker 4: and leverage. When somebody tells you how they came back
- 1:18Speaker 4: and made a second fortune, I'm not impressed because why
- 1:21Speaker 4: the hell did they lose their first fortune?
- 1:22Speaker 1: I mean, there's no reason.
- 1:24Speaker 4: It's insane to risk what you have and need for
- 1:28Speaker 4: something you don't really need.
- 1:31Speaker 1: I mean, it's really just that simple. Liquor, ladies, and leverage.
- 1:34Speaker 3: Three things that have brought down people who had more money,
- 1:36Speaker 3: more power, and more opportunities than most of us could
- 1:39Speaker 3: ever imagine. And what I love about that quote, is
- 1:42Speaker 3: that it reminds us of something we don't discuss enough.
- 1:44Speaker 3: You can be intelligent and still make some incredibly stupid decisions.
- 1:48Speaker 1: And that brings me to Jensen Hung. Okay, as I
- 1:50Speaker 1: said before, Jensen Hung is.
- 1:52Speaker 3: The CEO and co-founder of NVIDIA, one of the most
- 1:54Speaker 3: valuable companies on the planet. This man helped build the
- 1:57Speaker 3: technology powering the AI revolution. He is a billionaire many
- 2:01Speaker 3: times over, like over 170 billion. Okay, a genius by
- 2:05Speaker 3: just about every professional standard. But geniuses get horny too.
- 2:09Speaker 1: Okay.
- 2:09Speaker 3: And just because you mastered artificial intelligence doesn't mean you
- 2:12Speaker 3: always exercise natural intelligence because Jensen has admitted to being
- 2:17Speaker 3: unfaithful to his wife. I don't know how many times
- 2:20Speaker 3: we have to get on this radio and remind you
- 2:22Speaker 3: that if you don't do right by your queen, no
- 2:24Speaker 3: good is going to come to you.
- 2:26Speaker 1: Okay. It's just not worth it on any level. I
- 2:28Speaker 1: don't care if you got $ 174 billion or $ 174.
- 2:29Speaker 2: Okay.
- 2:29Speaker 1: Cheating on your wife.
- 2:34Speaker 3: Is never worth it and according to reports u.s intelligence
- 2:38Speaker 3: officials have raised concerns that the woman he piping the
- 2:42Speaker 3: woman he was piping on the side was a chinese
- 2:44Speaker 3: spy this man was giving pp to a chinese spy
- 2:48Speaker 3: allegedly let's go to nbc news for the report please.
- 2:51Speaker 2: This morning, NVIDIA CEO and co-founder Jensen Huang admitting to
- 2:55Speaker 2: having a relationship with a woman U.S. intelligence agencies are
- 2:58Speaker 2: calling a Chinese spy, according to a person with knowledge
- 3:01Speaker 2: of the matter. Alice Huang is an executive from a
- 3:03Speaker 2: data company called Megaspeed and an alleged Chinese intelligence asset,
- 3:08Speaker 2: who the New York Times reported last month was feeding
- 3:10Speaker 2: information directly to Beijing. Allegations a Chinese official called unsubstantiated
- 3:15Speaker 2: and nothing but smears overnight. Jensen Huang apologizing to employees
- 3:20Speaker 2: in a staff memo shared by the company with NBC News, writing,
- 3:23Speaker 2: I was unfaithful to my wife. My actions hurt her
- 3:26Speaker 2: and our children. There is no excuse for what I did.
- 3:29Speaker 2: I am deeply sorry. Jensen Huang and the Alice Huang
- 3:33Speaker 2: sharing the same last name, but no relation. The two
- 3:36Speaker 2: pictured together at events in past years. NVIDIA's board announced
- 3:40Speaker 2: an independent investigation Sunday, but says it has no reason
- 3:44Speaker 2: to believe that either national security or NVIDIA secrets were
- 3:47Speaker 2: compromised and that Huang will continue to lead the company
- 3:50Speaker 2: without interruption. Despite the news, President Trump defending the NVIDIA
- 3:54Speaker 2: CEO Sunday. He's done an amazing job for our country.
- 3:58Speaker 1: I just know he's a fine person, but you never
- 4:00Speaker 1: know what is going on. Now, you just heard.
- 4:03Speaker 3: There's no public proof that Jensen Wong knowingly gave information.
- 4:08Speaker 3: To the Chinese spy, okay? But that's not what the
- 4:11Speaker 3: moral of this story is. The moral of this story is, man,
- 4:14Speaker 3: you got to control your horny, okay?
- 4:15Speaker 1: Salute to the good brother, Ueno. Drop on the clues
- 4:17Speaker 1: bombs for Ueno.
- 4:18Speaker 3: I was listening to the I'll Do It Myself podcast once,
- 4:21Speaker 3: and he talked about how horniness can be the downfall
- 4:23Speaker 3: of a man, and it's so true, okay?
- 4:25Speaker 1: The fact.
- 4:26Speaker 3: that a personal relationship involving one of the most powerful
- 4:29Speaker 3: technology executives in the world has become a national security
- 4:32Speaker 3: concern is enough to have a conversation about judgment and
- 4:36Speaker 3: extra horny humans, okay? Because this man is helping shape
- 4:39Speaker 3: the future of AI, but he has allowed one of
- 4:43Speaker 3: the oldest human weaknesses to create problems for him, and
- 4:46Speaker 3: that weakness is horniness, okay? And that's why that Warren
- 4:50Speaker 3: Buffett quote is so powerful. Liquor, ladies, and leverage. Liquor
- 4:55Speaker 3: represents leverage. The things that impair your judgment, right? So
- 4:58Speaker 3: it could be liquor, drugs, whatever. Okay, ladies and that
- 5:02Speaker 3: old school saying represent the temptations.
- 5:05Speaker 1: You allow to.
- 5:05Speaker 3: Distract you and leverage represents the risk you take because
- 5:10Speaker 3: you think you're too successful to lose.
- 5:12Speaker 1: Okay.
- 5:13Speaker 3: And none of those things care about how intelligent you are.
- 5:16Speaker 3: You can have a PhD and still make terrible decisions.
- 5:19Speaker 1: Okay. You could have a billion dollars and still make
- 5:21Speaker 1: horrible decisions.
- 5:22Speaker 3: You can be the smartest person in every room you
- 5:24Speaker 3: walk into and still make a decision that has everybody
- 5:28Speaker 3: in that room questioning your common sense.
- 5:31Speaker 1: Being smart doesn't make you immune to being stupid.
- 5:34Speaker 3: Okay, in fact, sometimes the smarter and more successful you become,
- 5:38Speaker 3: the more dangerous your bad decisions get because you start
- 5:41Speaker 3: believing your own hype. Okay, you start thinking the rules
- 5:45Speaker 3: that apply to everybody else don't apply to you. You
- 5:47Speaker 3: think that doo-doo on that tissue don't stink. Okay, you
- 5:49Speaker 3: convince yourself that because you figured out how to win
- 5:52Speaker 3: in business, you figured out how to win at life.
- 5:55Speaker 3: And that's just simply not true. Okay, there are people
- 5:57Speaker 3: listening to the sound of my voice right now who
- 5:59Speaker 3: are brilliant at their jobs, but terrible with their money.
- 6:02Speaker 3: There's people who can manage an entire company, but can't
- 6:05Speaker 3: manage their emotions. Okay, there's people who can solve everybody
- 6:08Speaker 3: else's problems, but keep creating the same problems in their
- 6:12Speaker 3: own lives. And I know someone is, you know, saying, well,
- 6:15Speaker 3: Uncle Sharla, if Jensen Wong is worth billions, how stupid
- 6:18Speaker 3: can he really be? That's exactly the point. OK, your
- 6:22Speaker 3: bank account is not a measurement of your wisdom.
- 6:24Speaker 4: All right.
- 6:25Speaker 1: Money tells me you know how to make money.
- 6:27Speaker 3: It doesn't tell me it doesn't tell me you know
- 6:29Speaker 3: how to make good decisions in every area of your life.
- 6:32Speaker 1: That's why so many morally corrupt rich people.
- 6:34Speaker 3: OK, intelligence and discipline are two completely different things. Intelligence
- 6:39Speaker 3: can help you recognize a bad decision. Discipline is what
- 6:42Speaker 3: keeps you from making it. And sometimes we know exactly
- 6:45Speaker 3: what we're doing is wrong. We know the consequences. We
- 6:48Speaker 3: know what we stand to lose. We know better and
- 6:50Speaker 3: we still don't do better because we think we can
- 6:53Speaker 3: get away with it. OK, knowing better and doing better
- 6:56Speaker 3: are two completely different things. That's why I don't believe,
- 6:59Speaker 3: you know, the greatest threat to your success is always
- 7:02Speaker 3: somebody trying to take what you have. Sometimes the greatest
- 7:04Speaker 3: threat to your success is you, your ego. OK, your
- 7:09Speaker 3: inability to tell yourself no. Now, I don't know what
- 7:12Speaker 3: the investigation into Jensen Wong will ultimately reveal. Maybe no
- 7:16Speaker 3: national security information was compromised. Maybe the allegations go nowhere.
- 7:19Speaker 3: But the larger lesson doesn't depend on the outcome of
- 7:22Speaker 3: that investigation. OK, because Jensen is not the first successful
- 7:25Speaker 3: person whose personal choices have raised questions about his judgment.
- 7:29Speaker 3: And he damn sure won't be the last. OK, this
- 7:31Speaker 3: is about controlling your horny, my brothers. Okay, this is
- 7:34Speaker 3: about grown men making better choices. So always remember those
- 7:38Speaker 3: three L's. Liquor, ladies, and leverage. Okay, and remember this too.
- 7:43Speaker 3: You can be smart enough to build an empire and
- 7:45Speaker 3: still make decisions foolish enough to put that empire at risk.
- 7:49Speaker 3: Don't you ever in your mother effing life confuse intelligence
- 7:53Speaker 3: with wisdom. Intelligence is knowing what you can do. Wisdom
- 7:56Speaker 3: is knowing what you shouldn't do. Please give Jensen Wong
- 8:00Speaker 3: the biggest hee-haw.
- 8:05Speaker 1: What if his first name was something? Something Wong. I
- 8:12Speaker 1: don't like you. Leave me alone. What is wrong with y'all?
- 8:17Speaker 1: What is wrong with y'all? Because something was definitely Wong.
- 8:20Speaker 1: It definitely was. That is very true. All right. Listen,
- 8:25Speaker 1: a fact is a fact, people. You can be mad
- 8:27Speaker 1: at facts. What is wrong with y'all? All right. Now,
- 8:31Speaker 1: when we come back. Everybody's straightened up. Queen of Fool
- 8:34Speaker 1: is coming in the room. Queen of Fool and Supernova
- 8:36Speaker 1: Slam will be joining us.
- 8:37Speaker 3: All right.
- 8:37Speaker 1: We're going to talk to them next. All right. Y'all
- 8:39Speaker 1: are silly, man. It's the Breakfast Club.
