Welcome to Math & Magic.
I'm Bob Pittman.
Over the years,
we've talked with dozens of leaders in industries from biotech to banking,
entertainment to advertising.
I'm always trying to figure out what makes them tick and how they got to where they are today.
Their 20s may be behind them, but it's a time I'm always curious about,
in part because I myself am a college dropout.
Whether you go to college or not,
this time in our lives is often filled with possibilities and the potential for self-discovery.
That's what this bonus episode is all about.
We'll hear how the pathways our guests took in their 20s affected their futures in unanticipated ways.
And we'll get their thoughts on the landscape of education and work experience today and how to weigh what's most valuable.
Let's start with David Solomon.
He's the perfect example of somebody who took advantage of the wide range of opportunities.
college had to offer.
Today, he's the CEO of Goldman Sachs,
but he didn't get the training you might expect to rise to the top of the leading firm in global investment banking.
