Dialectic with Jackson Dahl

Chris Paik is an investor and co-founder of Pace Capital.

Chris is all about intentionality and discovery.

He combines rigorous frameworks about incentives, people, and markets with an insatiable appetite for the new. He is a true original thinker.

We discuss his intentionality, approach to explanations, how culture follows a pendulum, the efficient market hypothesis and other frameworks for evaluating businesses and markets—including his newest on top-down vs. bottom-up companies, how he finds new stuff, the pros and cons of the internet and capitalism, Pace Capital’s values, and the inner-workings of Chris’s unusual mind.

Episode 6 is out now on all platforms, more links below:

Chris Paik on incentives, capital, systems, and power:

"The world has two sides: a for-profit world and a non-profit world. There are entities that are trying to drive profits, and there are entities that are not trying to drive profits (governments, religions).

For-profit companies are really good at pushing the world to the way that it will be. They are very bad at being paternalistic. They’ll give people exactly what they want.

The non-profit side is really good at pushing the world into how it should be. It’s really good at being paternalistic. We as individual actors depend on the systems to imbue society with paternalism."

Wow. 

Absolutely love to see this. I’m a big fan AGM, makes sense we haven’t seen him on @moz  

Maybe we can the crew together for an episode soon??

Congrats @antonio & @spindl on the @coinbase acquisition!

Antonio messaged me in 2022 saying he was starting a new company. I had admired his work for years.

We became the “first investor” & they built a category leading product.

Thanks for letting us be on this journey.
