How do you thank someone for saving your life? In this year’s Gratitude episode, Boyd Dunleavey shares his extraordinary journey from beating cancer to running marathons—and how investing in companies like Nvidia and Shopify changed his family’s future. Listener stories span the globe, from a school founder in Japan to a Fool in Bangalore with a portfolio full of 10-baggers. Along the way, David reflects on the power of community, the lessons of loss, and why gratitude is the ultimate fuel for a richer life. This is Thanksgiving, Rule Breaker-style.

As another year winds down, it’s time to pause and reflect on the year of 2024 and the gratitude we feel. From groundbreaking achievements in business (artificial intelligence) to investing home runs (Nvidia, and the S&P 500 overall) to the meaningful connections that enrich our lives, this week’s podcast is an expression of thankfulness for what inspires us, supports us, and keeps us moving forward… and reminds us why we invest. Let’s feel grateful together — let’s call it out! And find sparks of inspiration for the year ahead.

This June, ChatGPT took its first swing with five big questions about Rule Breaker Investing, and a new episodic series was born. Now, we’re back for Volume 2—with a baseball twist! ChatGPT pitches David five questions, each a unique pitch type:

1. Hardball: What separates Rule Breakers built to last from those destined to fizzle out?

2. Softball: Can David sum up Rule Breaker Investing in one sentence?

3. Curveball: What would make him rethink a long-term winner?

4. Screwball: Is there a traditional investing rule David (begrudgingly) respects?

5. Knuckleball: If he could pass on just one Rule Breaker principle, what would it be?

Come for the hardball, stay for the knuckleball!
