Business Intuition
Getting back to Miami is fun not only because my Co-Founder lives here but also because many of our advisors do too — today’s takeaway was something very interesting.

TBH I’m not sure what it is — is it doing more high-level work during their day-to-day analyzing businesses that make them better at Buyside interviewing (?)
