  • AMAZING INTERVIEW WITH JOHN SOFORIC AUTHOR OF THE WEALTHY GARDNER

    I will be listening for to this episode over and over again. Bogumil and John had a lovely conversation that I enjoyed very much. I will be looking into Bogumil’s book he wrote as well and listening to many more of his episodes in the future! Thank and take a listen to this amazing gentleman.

Arie van Gemeren: What 2,000 Years of History Teach Us About Building Wealth Today - The Investing Mistakes Empires and Billionaires Keep Repeating
Q: How did you transition from public equities to real estate, and why do you see real estate as a durable wealth creator?
Ari describes starting in stock research and wealth building through a live-in flip that sparked a pivot toward real estate; he emphasizes real estate as a tangible, leverage-friendly, long-term asset class that complements stocks when used as part of a balanced, yet concentrated strategy.
Vitaliy Katsenelson on Investing Amid Extreme Uncertainty: Survival First. Returns Second (Excess Returns Pod)
Q: Can you give an example of how you know a thesis is broken?

Richard Oldfield: Simple But Not Easy — What It Really Takes to Invest Well
Q: How should an individual or family office think about risk and performance over the long run?
Think in terms of a cushion of comfort and diversification to withstand downturns, not chasing annual performance. Maintain a long-term focus, be wary of 'active risk' chasing benchmarks, and ensure the investment approach aligns with the family's time horizon and risk tolerance, so you can endure inevitable downturns without panicking.
