The Pros And Cons Of A "Growth At All Costs" Mindset as we approach a potential recession, with Scott Stouffer from Scalematters

Companies are now looking to be cost neutral when it comes to buying software, meaning that they have to get rid of one tool in order to buy another. It is speculated that this recession is of our own making, due to low interest rates. It is also noted that the essential workforce is not affected by the recession and is in fact doing better. The conversation closes with the idea that luxury problems are now being blown up out of proportion.

The conversation discusses the effects of the recession and how it is impacting venture capital funding. It is noted that the majority of venture capital money comes from large university endowments, state employee retirement pension funds, and other organizations which have to maintain certain portfolio allocations. It is suggested that the situation is similar to a Ponzi scheme, with funds from one source covering the losses of another. The conversation concludes by noting that a lot of these organizations have to set aside a portion of their money for alternative investments with higher risk, such as venture capital and real estate.
