Dialectic with Jackson Dahl

Chris Paik is an investor and co-founder of Pace Capital.

Chris is all about intentionality and discovery.

He combines rigorous frameworks about incentives, people, and markets with an insatiable appetite for the new. He is a true original thinker.

We discuss his intentionality, approach to explanations, how culture follows a pendulum, the efficient market hypothesis and other frameworks for evaluating businesses and markets—including his newest on top-down vs. bottom-up companies, how he finds new stuff, the pros and cons of the internet and capitalism, Pace Capital’s values, and the inner-workings of Chris’s unusual mind.

Chris Paik on incentives, capital, systems, and power:

"The world has two sides: a for-profit world and a non-profit world. There are entities that are trying to drive profits, and there are entities that are not trying to drive profits (governments, religions).

For-profit companies are really good at pushing the world to the way that it will be. They are very bad at being paternalistic. They’ll give people exactly what they want.

The non-profit side is really good at pushing the world into how it should be. It’s really good at being paternalistic. We as individual actors depend on the systems to imbue society with paternalism."

Happiness isn’t a destination. It’s found in the journey, the little moments, and the people we meet.

The future is never written, it's created in every choice we make today. Dare to dream big.

A moment of kindness can change everything.

True strength comes not from avoiding challenges, but from overcoming them with resilience and an open heart.

We often get lost in the noise of life, forgetting that the answers lie in moments of stillness.

Change is inevitable, growth is optional.

Sometimes, the hardest battles lead to the most rewarding victories. Keep fighting, even when it feels impossible.
