John’s made his fair share of mistakes—and that’s precisely why his insights are so valuable. “Failure is really the way that you become successful.”

John’s journey into finance wasn’t exactly a straight line. Coming from a background in advertising, he eventually found himself running a value investing research house and learning firsthand the quirks of the market.

In this episode I chat with Andrew Brown from East72 Holdings to debunk some financial metrics.

We look at discounted cash flow (DCF) valuations, a metric often authoritatively trumpeted by analysts. Andrew argues that DCF is useless for valuing most companies: it's based on unfounded assumptions and crystal-balling and can be manipulated to fit any narrative.

Then there's EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization). Andrew agrees with Charlie Munger's assessment (bullshit!).
