This financial podcast for Gen Zers has attracted billionaire investors, hedge-fund executives and Fortune 500 CEOs. Meet the 17-year-old who runs it.
Most high-school seniors start their school year worrying about applying to college or thinking ahead to some of the seminal social events, such as the prom, that will mark the coming months. But Logan Lin, a 17-year-old senior at Dublin High, a public school in California’s Bay Area, has a slightly different set of concerns.
Logan does his show while maintaining a 4.3 grade-point average, serving as managing editor of his school paper and finding time for the occasional morning workout at the gym. As Logan says, reading a textbook on finance can be a challenge: His generation “likes to listen to things.” At the same time, Logan says there are still people who have flatly refused so far to appear on his program, including former Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke and entrepreneur and “Shark Tank” star Mark Cuban.
The guests appear to be more than eager to jump right in. Hubert Joly, the former Best Buy CEO, notes that he was caught a little off guard when he first heard from Logan. “It’s not every day that I’m approached by a with a passion for finance and business,” he said via email. With Paulson, he delved into the financial legend’s famous “Big Short” investment against the housing market ahead of the 2008-09 financial crisis. With Roy Kuan, a former managing partner with CVC Capital Partners, a private equity firm, he discussed strategies for utilizing leveraged buyouts.
