A few years ago, a middle-aged guy named Jeremy heard about a new start-up.

He didn’t fully understand what the company did, but he thought it had potential—so he made a small investment in it.

Long story short: every $5,000 he invested turned into $1.25 million.

Today, I’ll tell you…

James Dean had one.

So did Peter Fonda in “Easy Rider.”

And so do all the Hells Angels today

I'm referring, of course, to the coolest thing on two wheels:

Motorcycles. 

But now an innovative start-up is creating a new kind of motorcycle—

And as you’re about to learn,…

This past weekend, I had the best burger in New York City.

Thick, rare and juicy. A fresh slice of ripe tomato and onion. And a charbroiled bun.

It’s from a downtown dive called the Corner Bistro.

But plenty of folks disagree with me:

They say NYC’s best burger is…

Historically, venture investors have focused on one primary sector:

Technology.

Sure, what it means to “invest in tech” has changed over time…

In the 60s, for example, it meant backing the makers of silicon chips, whereas today it might mean backing drone start-ups, or artificial intelligence companies…

But tech is…

Fortune just dropped a bombshell:

The pending IPO of SnapChat—one of the most anticipated tech IPOs since Facebook—might be a hoax.

You can’t make this stuff up.

As Fortune reported on Monday, it’s become aware of a “conspiracy theory” that Snap’s massive IPO is just a ploy.

But a ploy…

China is killing us.

In 1990, it produced less than 3% of the world’s manufacturing output.

By 2015, that number had increased to nearly 25%.

Today it produces about 90% of the world’s computers, 70% of its mobile phones, and 63% of its shoes.

But now the Chinese government is…

When you think about who makes the big bucks from professional sports, two groups of people come to mind:

The players and, of course, the gamblers.

But as it turns out, a third group makes more money than both of them:

The owners of professional sports teams.

Can you imagine…

2017 is shaping up to be a big year for technology IPOs.

You may have heard about potential IPOs for Snapchat, Spotify and Uber, and now dozens of other start-ups have become IPO contenders, too.

It might be tempting to invest in these IPOs, but should you?

You might not…

Let me tell you about a guy I know.

Based on his investment track record, you’d think he’d be broke by now.

For example, on one investment he made, he lost more than $25 million.

More recently, he made 21 different investments—and almost half of them went belly-up.

But here’s…

I saw the first Star Wars movie 40 years ago and got hooked instantly.

Ever since then, every few years or so, I wait in line to see the latest installment.

But over the holiday weekend, as I watched Rogue One, I started thinking about how much the movie industry…
