The High School Dropout Who Made Billions & Bought An NBA team

Synopsis
The guest's story runs from a 1.9 GPA to a $2B outcome, covering the start of Qualtrics, focus, sales skill, turning down $500M, working backwards, and buying an NBA team. The concrete business context is enterprise survey software, but the episode is mostly founder biography and operating advice.
