Henderson is walking through Siem Reap, Cambodia. He is not heading to Angkor Wat like every other tourist. He is going to the Sofitel Hotel to hear the story of a French expat who became a millionaire selling cakes.
Henderson opens this chapter with an interview. Not just any interview. He is sitting in his home in Bogota, Colombia, talking to Michael Saylor. Yes, that Michael Saylor. The MicroStrategy guy who bought over $2 billion in Bitcoin by early 2021.
Henderson is in Phoenix, Arizona. He calls a real estate agent named William. They go see two properties. The first one is ideal. Nice finishes, good floor plan, easy to resell later. The second one is a dump.
