EE514 - Emmet Savage: 12 Years of Struggle, 12 Days to Breakthrough | My Wall St

In this episode of The Entrepreneur Experiment, Gary Fox sits down with Emmet Savage, co-founder of MyWallSt, to talk investing, AI and the reality of building a business over the long term. Emmet shares the framework he uses to identify exceptional companies, why the best investors often do less, and how early bets on companies like Netflix and Tesla shaped his approach. He also reveals how MyWallSt went from being close to collapse after 12 years in business to generating the equivalent of 12 years of revenue in just 12 days. This is a conversation about patience, conviction, optimism and staying in the game long enough for everything to change. 🎧 Show Notes In this episode, we cover: 🔥 Emmet’s formula for success in business and investing 📈 How he identifies companies with long-term growth potential 🧠 Why emotion can help and hurt investors ⏳ The power of buying well and holding for decades 🚀 His early investments in Netflix and Tesla 🤖 Whether AI is a bubble or a generational opportunity 🌌 Why space and Rocket Lab excite him 💰 How MyWallSt achieved 12 years of revenue in 12 days ⚠️ Why hustle culture gives founders the wrong message 🌱 How optimism and persistence kept the business alive 💬 “The route to success is one mistake after another, staggered by the occasional blistering winner.” – Emmet Savage *Our Sponsors * Nostra: https://bit.ly/nostra26 Azure: https://bit.ly/azure26  Follow The Entrepreneur Experiment: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/entrepreneurexperiment/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@entrepreneurexperiment Links and Resources Emmet Savage and MyWallSt MyWallSt: https://www.mywallst.com/ Learn by MyWallSt: https://www.learn.mywallst.com/ Prophet by MyWallSt: https://www.mywallst.com/prophet_landing Emmet’s investing journey: https://www.mywallst.com/chief-investor-letter Investicon 2026 Investicon takes place in Dublin on 27 August 2026, bringing together leading investors to share the companies and investment themes they believe have the greatest long-term potential.
