Motley Fool analyst John Rotonti expands on his FoolFest 2020 presentation on business resilience and its connection to successful investing.

The Motley Fool recently held its first-ever, fully virtual conference for FoolFest 2020 for subscribers of its various services, and it was awesome!

For FoolFest, we were asked to keep our presentations very concise (under 20 minutes). What follows here is a longer, more complete version of that presentation.
