Democracy Café

Paul Martin, founder and CIO of Martin Capital Advisors (MartinCapital.com) -- for which I am an Investment Advisor Representative of the Socratic kind -- doesn't just create worlds; he creates universes. The accomplished managing partner (MCA regularly outperforms its competitors) is also a standout artist whose works are being shown from New York City to Mexico City (in November). My operating premise in this latest The Openist exchange with Paul -- my most frequent guest on our podcast (what can I say, he fascinates me) -- is that his ability to envision new worlds, if not universes, also drives in some way his singular investment artistry. Listen in. (My apologies, especially to Paul, around the 8 minute and 15 second mark, for misunderstanding what he said -- he was saying 'secret,' and I misunderstood it to be 'seeking -- but I was at a bustling cafe during the recording.)
