Sitting on a train the Alps. Kid from local boarding Swiss boarding school sits down next to me & he’s my cousins best friend from Cali. It’s a big world but the upper crust is very thin

Yup. Asked my buddy the key to his huge success. His reply was simple, “My HBS network”.

I didnt even go to a boarding school, just a slightly better high school and a lot of kids already knew each other from piano lessons, skiing or some other activity they’ve done since childhood

That’s just networking. Establishing that you know someone in common makes that person easier to trust and do business with. It’s who you know

Yep. 100% true. This has been my experience also. …and you have to follow—join the same club, go to the same parties, and go along with everything

It's six degrees of separation reduced to two. It's like the mafia they ALL KNOW EACH OTHER, EVEN IN MIDDLE SCHOOL
