Starting Businesses With Friends, Why We’re So Divided, and the Danger of Keeping Score in Relationships

Hogging seats on a crowded train, not saying excuse me, watching videos on your phone with no headphones in. Sometimes it feels like we don't know how to act anymore. What we have been seeing, increasingly, is people breaking rules. Why should I play by the rules if nobody else is going to do that for me? This week on Explain It to Me, how to mind your manners.

New episodes Sundays wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to Office Hours of Prop G. This is the part of the show where we answer your questions about business, big tech, entrepreneurship, and whatever else is on your mind. If you'd like to submit a question for next time, you can send a voice recording to OfficeAurs at Propheymedia.com. Again, that's officehours at Prophetgymedia.com or post your question on the Scott Galloway subreddit and we just might feature it in our next episode.

First question. Our first question comes from Silly emu 8312 on Reddit. They say, everyone always says don't start a business with family and friends. What's your realistic opinion on this?
