Welcome to Episode 145 of The Liquidity Event! This week, AJ and Shane tackle some big topics: Are individual investors smarter than the "smart money" hedge funds? Why are CEOs really heading for the exits at record rates (and what's the deal with that vasectomy shirt story)? Plus, we unravel the frustrating Catch-22 of credit card fees for businesses and consumers.

Tune in for our signature blend of financial insights and (mostly) educational humor!
