How to Live a Life You Won’t Regret at 80 - Bill Gurley (Video)
In this 14 March 2026 published Modern Wisdom video, host Chris Williamson talks with Bill Gurley, a venture capitalist, general partner at Benchmark, and a former Wall Street analyst.
How do you find work you actually enjoy? So many people warn about the jobs they hate and the dreams they never chased. But turning passion into a career is harder than it sounds. So how do you reinvent yourself and build a life where work feels meaningful instead of miserable?
Expect to learn why most people end up having careers they regret, how to build a framework for regret minimisation, what people do that achieve success in their dream career, how to know when you’re plateauing versus when you’re just bored, what great mentors actually do that books and podcasts can’t, if someone can learn to love the grind or if it is something that’s innate, how you know if you’re in the wrong field versus just in the hard phase of the right field and more.
