In this episode, Bill sits down with George Aliferis, founder of Orama, host of the Investology podcast, and a fellow CAIA Member, to explore the evolving dynamics of private markets, democratized investing, and the importance of long-term thinking. George shares his unconventional path—from financial markets to filming Michelin-star chefs, and back into fintech content creation. Together, they probe the marketing practices in alternative investing, the pitfalls of liquidity and wrappers, and the critical role of education and governance in a more accessible financial landscape. The episode also features reflections on Swensen-style investing, the challenges of retail access to alts, and whether fractional ownership of wine or art is more hobby than portfolio play.
