The FIRE (Financial Independence Retire Early) movement is becoming increasingly popular. This is a mindset that Jose, Miguel and Fahad all share and with this common goal embarked on this journey to share their experiences, learning, mistakes and successes with everyone looking to build their wealth.
Episode #5 - Entrepreneurship as a vehicle to build wealth
“If you need inspiring words, don’t do it!”. That was Elon Musk’s advice on entrepreneurship to a group of university students. Yet, as religious leader Dieter F. Uchtdorf beautifully puts it: “The desire to create is one of the deepest yearnings of the human soul”.
We know of painters, musicians, authors, whose art desperately needs to be brought to light, and inventors, researchers, and engineers with an incredible urge to realise an idea. But taking the leap to focus our undivided attention on these pursuits is a daunting prospect.
If entrepreneurship is so hard, why do we embellish it? How can we have a realistic view of the risks and upsides? What lessons can we learn from others who’ve walked this path? Let’s sit, and discuss by the fireside.

Episode #4 - Real estate w/ Jaime Azevedo
Buying a house is a significant decision in one’s life: for most, it will be the largest purchase they will ever make. For many, it will happen maybe only once or twice in their lifetime. For others, buying and selling houses represents a core portion of a well balanced portfolio. Though real estate was at the core of the Great Recession, it is known as a safe investment class. In recent years, real estate investors and house hackers have seen staggering profits from their assets.
Regardless of which situation one is in, investing in such expensive, illiquid assets, comes with a lot of risk and stress. As uncertainty looms over the global economy, recent news foreshadow downside in the housing market, with China Evergrande at the inception point. Is the tide starting to turn? How can we - as first-time buyers or investors - make the best of the current markets? And what role will technology play in shaping the future of real estate? Find out, as we sit by the Fireside.

Episode #3 - Tulips, cryptos, and memes - why do we chase market manias?
Imagine you were invited to participate in "The Price is Right", and the challenge before you was to guess the price of a single tulip bulb. Well, you’d be forgiven to think they should go for just a few dollars, but speculators in 17th century Holland paid the equivalent of around $1,000,000 in today’s money for a single bulb!
What could turn a flower bulb into such a valuable asset? What forces drive us to such wild speculations? How can we recognise the psychological factors that underlie market actions, and how can we exploit them to build wealth? That’s what we’re going to be discussing today.
