Today’s episode features Eric, one of the most outspoken Opendoor investors on social media, known for his bold thesis that Opendoor could 100x from $0.80 to $82, and then 6x again from there to $500.
We dive into Opendoor’s leadership shake-up, its path forward in the real estate market, and why Eric believes Opendoor isn’t just another meme stock but a “cult” stock like Tesla and Palantir.
Eric shares what changes he thinks the new leadership team must make to unlock Opendoor’s full potential, the biggest risks the company faces, and why retail investors — the “Open Army” — may be one of Opendoor’s greatest assets, generating millions of dollars in marketing value every single day.
Beyond the company itself, Eric opens up about his personal investing philosophy — including diversification vs concentration, crypto, and even what Kobe Bryant’s “Mamba Mentality” means to him as an investor.
Stick around until the end — you’ll hear wild stories about Eric spending over a month at Drake’s house trying to pitch him Opendoor, what a Super Bowl ad with Drake could look like, and how music like “God’s Plan” fuels his outlook on life and investing.
