Description
I was a poor kid who couldn’t have any of the toys my schoolmates had. I didn’t understand why the world was so unfair.
I joined investment banking to see how money works and finally realised that “rich society” makes consumers desire what they can’t have. It’s all engineered. This is called consumerism.
Financial education is the main factor in the rich and poor divide. So in this podcast, I will interview millennials building their financial freedom.
We will talk about consumer psychology, saving, investing, career management and discuss how people manage their money.
