Please enjoy this conversation I had at my house in Grand Cayman with Paul Guerra on his podcast ACCIÓN! for one of the most personal episodes I’ve ever had.

We dug deep into my journey—from my days at Goldman Sachs to navigating the financial crisis, the birth of Global Macro Investor, and ultimately starting Real Vision. This is not just about finance; it’s about life, growth, and creating the future you deserve.

I shared my thoughts on the two massive megatrends shaping the future—technology, and crypto—and why now is the most critical moment in human history. We talked about my move to Spain, my passion for travel, and the profound lessons that shaped my perspective on life, quality, and happiness. Plus, I opened up about the emotional challenges of being in the spotlight and staying true to my vision despite setbacks.

This episode is raw, unfiltered, and unlike anything you’ve seen from me before. I’m sharing not just my strategies for financial freedom, but the personal side of what drives me. If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to take control of your future, this is for you.

Key topics covered in this episode:

• Why technology and crypto are the ultimate opportunities to unf*ck your future.

• The myths about homeownership and why your house might not be the asset you think it is.

• My personal journey from London to Spain to the Cayman Islands and how it shaped my views on quality of life.

• The story behind Real Vision and my mission to democratize financial knowledge.

• How to prepare for the coming economic singularity driven by AI and robots.

This is more than just a financial discussion—it’s about living a life with purpose, embracing change, and building a better future. Recorded on December 13, 2025, in the Cayman Islands.
