Keen On… Yossi Vardi: Why He Likes To Exploit Child Labor (TCTV)
That’s Yossi. Whereas most investors are a lot less intelligent than they appear, so Vardi is much smarter than he seems. Behind all the self-deprecating jokes about his wife, his robust physique and his sartorial inelegance (he was just voted one of the five worst dressed people in Israel, a badge he wears – to excuse the pun – with great honor), Vardi is one of the very few wise men of tech. And that wisdom is derived from his refusal to take himself or his manifold achievements too seriously.
Beyond his wisdom and humor, what strikes me most about Vardi is his generosity of spirit. Here’s a guy who makes bets on people rather than businesses. So if he likes you, he’ll invest in you. That’s Yossi – an unselfish man in a selfish world.
