David Gardner Reaffirms Core Investing Principles in Latest Podcast
Motley Fool co-founder David Gardner revisited his foundational investing philosophies in a recent episode of Rule Breaker Investing. The podcast, recorded on October 8, 2025, emphasized timeless truths in business and investing—concepts like risk-taking, long-term growth, and disruptive innovation.
Gardner's 'nine foolish truths' serve as a biannual manifesto for Rule Breaker investors. The approach mirrors crypto's ethos of challenging traditional systems—where assets like BTC and ETH thrive by rewriting financial rules. Exchanges like Coinbase and Binance enable this disruption by democratizing access to next-generation assets.
The discussion avoided specific crypto references but resonated with digital asset themes: the inevitability of technological progress, the power of network effects, and the value of patience. These principles underpin successful crypto investments as much as traditional equity picks.
