We would play a forerunner of fantasy and frankly 5 of the entire industry is the daily fantasy industry. The rest of the industry is fantasy on a seasonal basis that nobody questions. I think well see in the future most of this evolving into Technology Companies as opposed to Media Companies which is another issue. Mark cuban is right. Why do you think the daily Fantasy Sports are seen one way, season long sports are seen a different way. In my opinion seasonlong Fantasy Sports is skill based. Players are constantly making moves. Things are changing. Daily Fantasy Sports is gambling because it is a game of chance. Any events can happen that day, alter the game, outcome and essentially be just determining the outcome which is gambling. When you say its legal attorneys general say fan duel and draft kings isnt legal in their opinion. In fact its been this week we saw an attorney general stand up, from rhode island who said he thinks it is legal but needs to be regulated. What do you say to the attorneys general . It needs to be regulated. We are seeing evolution into a different kind of game. My point is this. The games themselves are evolving. I have lost money on both. Dont judge it by that. The bottom line is that the game of skill is evolving and it really doesnt turn on whether its one week, two or a season. The companies that are prevailing are the ones that will figure out how to use the communal aspect of playing these games because every league has relationships and teams do with this kind of process. The issue is not to put your head in the sand and say its illegal. It, tax it and evolve it. Im not sure where i come down on this. Lets talk about your expertise in gambling. Some of the concerns from people who look at this say, wait a second, you can get addicted to Something Like this. What do you think about this addiction . Have you seen cases like that . Absolutely. There is definitely risk to develop addiction. We have seen cases come into the clinic as well as the state Treatment Program for men and women who suffer harmful consequences because of daily Fantasy Sports or fantasy gambling. Its a new and emerging form of gambling and a potential for addictive behaviors from that. Is that enough to make it illegal, to ricks point . Again, its not that it should be illegal. This is a form of gambling. It should be regulating. At its best its entertainment. Modern Day Entertainment that can bring people together. Whats important to me is that regulated to protect consumers and businesses to make sure we have a really effective product that moves society forward. You mentioned all of the major leagues have had a relationship with these fantasy sport sites. Although a lot of them backed away since attorneys general started making noise about this. Where do you think that shakes out . Regulation and clarification of where this is going. More and more people understanding that fantasy, as a communal activity whether moe bile or otherwise is going to evolve. The attorneys general are right. They need to protect their interests. If it is taxation, evolution. Again, the Media Companies have been driving this. Lets understand in the future Technology Companies will emerge to take it to the next step. Thanks for joining us.

We hear a lot about innovation and new ideas. To make change happen you need the people to get it done. Adam grant is a professor of management in psychology at the Wharton School of the university of pennsylvania. His back is originals, how nonconformists move the world. Me we talked to him about what it means and his research may surprise you. Crazy ones. You dont have to be a round peg in a squarele hole to be original. Many originals hate risk. I think of somebody who founds a company and think they must have a huge risk tolerance. Who looks at that and doesnt want to look at the risk . It looks risky. But in their mind it is risky not to act. They have big ideas and what happens if they dont if give it a shot . Entrepreneurs who say i will keep my day job before i go all in are 33 less likely to fail. Counter to what people would expect. You think you have to devote your heart and mind and soul to an occupation. Those are the stories we hear. A lot of successful entrepreneurs are people saying i want a backup plan and buy time to do the idea right. Look at phil knight. He started nike but started as an accountant selling shoes out of the trunk. If he had gone in right away he would have had pressure to get instead he built an extraordinary company.

The ten minutes people generate about 15 ideas for with a new business. Then they feel out of steam. When theyre told you have five more minutes, think more.

They were named the most innovative in the world by fast company. Neil bloominthat will was in the first class i taught at wharton and i opted out of investing which was depressing. Wrong. Research. What are the lessons you bring up in originals can we apply to personal life . If you study creative architects and look at them versus technically skilled but unoriginalal peers. One thing is their parents were much more likely to focus on values than rules. They said, look. These are Guiding Principles but we want you to have freedom. They were more comfortable maybe not listening to nay sayers. It sounds like the idea of teaching kids to think, not what to think. Exactly. I was a little surprised. There is evidence suggesting that parental conflict fuels creativity among kids. When your parents dont agree with each oh you have to think for yourself. Thats a horrible lesson. I hate to hear it. Im not saying to be screaming at each oh. The idea you have to be perfectly unified on every message communicated to the kids. You can still love each other. Teach your kids to challenge assumptions.
