My guest today is Howard Getson, an entrepreneur and president & CEO of Capitalogix. Getson is an associate of Stendahl. Getson has a degree in psychology and philosophy from Duke University, an MBA and law degree from Northwestern, and has practiced corporate law. Getson is running a hedge fund today as well as a quant research shop, and he's in the business of systematically finding edges through all sorts of different approaches - not only trend following. Getson started his first business in the sixth grade, and he has always had the mind of an entrepreneur.
The topic is entrepreneurship.
In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:
Getson's legal background and how being a practicing corporate attorney influenced his trading and other business practices - as well as how a diverse background can help "E-gene", and how entrepreneurism is at the core of what both Getson and Covel practice How hunches can be dangerous Turning your hobby into your business Recognizing patterns The "three levels of mastery" - cognitive, emotional, and physical How minimum standards can define your life How systematic trading can define your minimum standards Controlling emotions through automation Importance of travel with a focus on Southeast Asia in particular and why this area of the world is so important to keep an eye onJump in!
