Do the rich always have luck? A feng shui master on BaZi and funding timing
有钱人一定有运吗？风水师揭密企业的八字与融资时机
About this episode
Master Martin joins The Data Room to connect an old discipline to a modern question: when is the right time to raise capital? Starting from the idea of "borrowing luck", he explains who your benefactors are, when to expand, when to step back, and whether money arriving is always good news.
Host Yoke walks through ten-year luck cycles, succession planning and why a windfall can work against you. Whether or not you believe in metaphysics, it is a fresh way to think about timing.
The Topic File
Timing, luck and your next raise
- Borrowing luck works like a bank loan: you have to qualify for it first.
- Ten-year cycles mean no run lasts forever. Plan expansion, fundraising and exit around them.
- Succession is a timing question too: does your successor's cycle connect with yours?
- Money arriving is not always good news. Some windfalls cost more than they bring.
- In the end, decisions change fate more than charts do.
"Know your fate. Change your fate. Never surrender to it." 知命，改命，不认命
