Do you want to learn about how the traditional automobile ownership model is being disrupted or you thinking of starting a career in the ride-sharing business (like being an Uber driver) without having a car? Be sure to listen to this episode of Silicon Valley Insider with Keith Koo.

On this week's show, Keith has serial entrepreneur and special guest, Scott Painter, Founder and CEO of Fair.com to discuss his innovative approach to automobile leasing using Fair's Fintech platform.

Scott previously was the founder and CEO of True Car and has won many awards for entrepreneurship and  innovation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Painter

On the Pivot, Scott Painter and Keith discuss the shift in attitudes towards traditional credit and debt (such as auto loans) and how consumers are looking at companies  like Fair.com for alternative financing to car loans.
