In this episode, I sit down with Vangelis (an investor from Greece) to unpack his first year of investing.
We talk about:
- Why money is taboo and how the 1999 stock market crash still shapes how people see investing today.
- From grandparents teaching him delayed gratification to saving for years to buy his first PS3 and how those habits set the stage for his future.
- How Vangelis moved from saving → gambling in crypto → finally building a disciplined ETF-based portfolio.
- Why training in the gym and investing share the same formula: discipline, patience, and avoiding shortcuts.
His story proves that even if you grow up in a culture where money isn’t talked about, you can rewrite the script.
