News Summary
- Josh Hou, 22, left his job as an investment banking analyst at Evercore to co-found Ren.
- Ren is an app that helps users determine how specific interventions, like supplements, are affecting their health by running experiments on the body.
- Hou: "A decade from now, I assume I'd regret staying in banking more than missing out on the roughly $50,000 bonus I might have made.
- Hopefully, that money won't be a huge deal to me by that point" "I've been into fitness since I was a little kid.
- People say you can't outwork a bad diet, but I sure as hell tried between marathons, Ironmans, and gym sessions," Hou says.
