Santa Monica firefighter Dom Bei discusses his campaign for CalPERS Board of Trustees, aiming to represent 2 million pension members managing $500 billion. Bei reveals CalPERS faces severe underfunding at 75%, leadership turnover with 4 CIOs in 5 years, and missing major investment opportunities. He advocates for Bitcoin education among pensioners, drawing parallels between the "lost decade" in private equity and potential missed opportunities with Bitcoin. Bei outlines his vision for addressing the broken incentive structure, improving transparency, and engaging previously apathetic voters in California's largest pension system.
