Summary

Richard Fertig explains his reasons for not investing in Airbnb's IPO. He argues that the IPO serves as a liquidity event for smart money investors who have already profited from their early investments and that the potential for significant post-IPO growth is limited due to high valuations. He prefers to remain conservative and wait for a better investment opportunity, referencing the 2008 market crash as an indicator for a similar pattern.
