When it comes to taking risks, Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings has an important rule of thumb. "I try to take a lot of risks on things that are recoverable," Hastings said in a recent conversation on entrepreneur Tim Ferriss' podcast.

In 2017, Hastings told CNBC he was actually pushing his content team to "take more risk" in that regard.
