Chris Mayer is an author and fund manager. He's written three books and in 2018, started managing Woodlock House Family Capital. 
Many investors have heard of Chris' name from his (now cult-following phenomenon) book, 100-Baggers. In that book, Chris dives into common characteristics of companies that returned 100-to-1 for their investors. Some of those characteristics include:

Tremendous drawdowns in share price

During the podcast, we chat about the following topics: 

What Chris wished he knew when he started investing 
Why Chris prefers owner-operators
What gives Chris his edge in the markets
What are shared qualities of some of Chris' biggest winners
Why Chris loves markets and investing

and more!
