The Valley Current®: Death and Taxes: Why Both Require Reporting
Taxes may be the price we pay to live in a civilized society, but no one, no matter how wealthy they are, likes paying taxes. Many of us are guilty of procrastinating until the last possible moment to file taxes, possibly to the point where we completely forget and then pay a penalty on top of our taxes when we do remember. Even if we do remember, some of us simply refuse to pay and attempt to cover it up, hoping we don’t get caught. One of these happened to John Groggins, the former general counsel for Moody’s, who just admitted to failing to file taxes on $54M over the past 4 years. Today host Jack Russo and CPA, Steve Rabin debate the likelihood of the IRS’s complex tax code led to a major screw up, or if Groggins’ case is just a new case of tax evasion.

The Valley Current®: Is A.I. Accelerating Entrepreneurship?
The increasing availability of artificial intelligent companions is a significant turning point in the development of services. AI’s ability to quickly draft documents or instantly find and summarize research reports will be a major help for companies since they can increase productivity while cutting down on employees. The concern over job displacement remains a significant concern overall as the need for knowledge workers who perform simpler, more repetitive tasks declines. Can we expect these employees to change gears and jumpstart a new career in small business entrepreneurship? Host Jack Russo and Yon Chung discuss what the future of the workplace will look like under the adoption of AI. Jack Russo Managing Partner "Every Entrepreneur Imagines a Better World"®️

The Valley Current®: What Creates the Entrepreneurial Mindset?
See a problem, solve a problem. This is a phrase many of us grew up hearing and can largely be considered the core of the entrepreneurial mindset. What sets an entrepreneur apart from your standard repair person is the intellectual curiosity to restructure and rebuild an entire process instead of patchwork. Bangladesh, conveniently settled between India and China, has a fast-growing economy thanks to a strong developer & freelance community, but is missing key pieces of a solid financial infrastructure. Today host Jack Russo meets Rubel Ahsan who is breaking Bangladesh away from foreign payment system dependency with Homepay, Bangladesh’s own domestic digital debit system.

Some of the biggest wealth transfers the world has ever seen are happening right now and a select few are going to profit the most from it. Elon Musk is on track to become the world’s first trillionaire by 2028, and there are more people right behind him poised to achieve this monumental monetary achievement in the next 10-15 years.

The Valley Current®: Why is Critical Thinking Important?
For a brief moment in time, astronomers were able to safely study the sun’s corona simply because it was in the perfect spot at the perfect time. As awesome as it was for us to watch, no major news organization mentioned how unbelievable it was that this happened in an ever-expanding universe. There are many things reported to us that we tend to take at face value. For instance, the media will report how many Palestinians died in Gaza, but not question the accuracy of those numbers which were provided to us from a terrorist organization. Many fundamentalistic religions promote blind faith and eschew outside thoughts as sacrilege. Critical thinking seems to be on the decline and taking offense has replaced acknowledging mistakes. Host Jack Russo and Dr. Leonard Hayflick steer us back to a becoming critically thinking society before our future falls apart.

The Valley Current®: How Can We Put An End to Bullying?
When we talk about the bullying problem in America, we tend to focus on the children who are tormented in school or online because bullies eventually grow up and act like adults, right? Unfortunately, some bullies never learn to act like decent human beings, and they carry their crude behaviors into adulthood where it can be modeled as successful tactics to children. Between younger generations taking offense to the smallest microaggression and older generations tendencies to make brazen, hurtful comments, it’s clear that bullying is taking its toll on civilization, and it is showing up in our politics. Can we combat adult bullies before society deteriorates even further? Today host Jack Russo and Tom Casey discuss the lack of respectable leadership in both business and politics.

There’s a whole industry of startup companies dedicated to pursuing a lifespan and a health span that goes to age 100 and possibly a whole lot longer.

While there’s usually little to no downside to joining these lawsuits, it may take years for the case to settle with a laughably minimal payout due to the large number of claimants.

The Valley Current®: Is Veery Offices the Future of Offices?
Let’s face it, businesses love to show off. When you’re representing a brand, you want to show off that brand with office spaces that are clean and comfortable with all the amenities a workspace requires. Before covid ("BC") even startup companies sunk big money and effort into making their workplace attractive. Now post-COVID ("PC") hybrid workstations and shared open workstations have become standard. In fact, companies have downscaled their physical spaces since there is no need to have a giant building that sits empty most days. So what does a startup or even any size company do when it needs a meeting place that isn’t cluttered and is more private than a coffee house? Host Jack Russo sits down with Veery Offices Founders Vickey Li and Johnny Yeh to learn about flexible office spaces in Silicon Valley that companies can rent whenever they need them.

Years ago, the height of legal technology was having a keynote system that would allow you to search through printed case summaries using indexes. Thankfully the internet has made research faster and more efficient compared to scanning through yards of paper, but AI could make research even faster. When Mark Doble went to law school, he figured out he was far more interested in legal tech than practicing law. Thankfully Mark didn’t let his education go to waste when he formed Alexi – an AI based platform that understands and relays complex laws in a way that will aid lawyers through the entire legal process.

Between the many lawsuits of Donald Trump and Elon Musk, its hard to remember if there has ever been so much news regarding state or federal litigation. The Supreme Court unsurprisingly ruled that Colorado could not remove Donald Trump from the presidential ballot as we cannot have 50 states doing 50 different things in an otherwise very binary election. What people did not predict was a unanimous decision which also objected to reasoning that only Congress can address electoral college issues. Can the courts handle the massive onslaught of cases?

From stores to banks, we use them to do everything from ordering food to sending our friends money after they pick up the tab. Unfortunately, criminals also know how to use and abuse computers. Not only do countries hack each other for data, but the average consumer is too often tricked into revealing sensitive information.

Have the two parties of the United States ever been further apart? Collaboration and cooperation rank low on congress’ to-do list facing another election year. Despite multiple impeachments, lawsuits, and inflammatory statements, Donald Trump remains the Republican favorite to run against Joe Biden. Much of Trump’s appeal seems to be rooted in his anti-establishment views and has capitalized on congress’ history of not tackling issues. The Republican party is fractionalizing at an increasing rate under the pressure to remain loyal to the party which is only compromising the United States’ ability to evolve.

The Valley Current®: Is Collaboration the Next Big CEO Challenge?
Is there any factor more important to evolution than forward-looking collaboration? Whether it’s family, society, business, or politics, leaders are needed to bring people together and inspire them to work towards a single goal. However, there is one major drawback to mass collaboration – and it hurts those with the most power. The more information and resources a CEO shares (especially in a knowledge worker environment), the more his or her power is diminished. On the other hand, keeping information secret among a small group of officials prevents the company from co-creating and being competitive. Is there any way for leaders to win? Today host Jack Russo and Tom Casey look at Congress' unwillingness to collaborate and compare it to Gen X leaders who are ready to collaborate as they move into senior positions.

The Valley Current®: Climate in the Chance Age
Powerful computer programs are accurately simulating the uncertainty of climate change. These models underlie the growing business of climate risk, which in turn supports mitigation planning and the insurance industry. But climate risk models are usually large monolithic systems, which although internally consistent, cannot export statistically coherent representations of the underlying uncertainties. Because of this, the outputs are often single average risk scores resulting in the Flaw of Averages, a family of well documented mathematical errors. We propose open standards for conveying the results of climate models, based on the discipline of , which will embed the uncertainty, including statistical dependence in auditable, cross-platform data. This will provide two major benefits. First, it will allow monolithic climate models to be disaggregated into manageable parts. Second, it will allow the results of disparate models of both hazards and impacts to be combined in numerous ways. In short, it will improve the measurement of environmental risk at any scale. Host Jack Russo and Professor Sam Savage of Stanford University discuss the use of probability management to create a new more Coherent Climate Calculus to effectively assess economic risks relating to climate change and toward the creation of entirely new climate finance marketplaces.
