Smart investors are discovering that success isn’t about chasing hype - it’s about cultivating insight.

In this revealing first conversation with Lawrence Lam, founder and managing director of Lumenary and author of The Founder Effect, Bushy Martin explores why long-term investment success depends more on people, purpose, and principle than on spreadsheets and short-term returns.

Lawrence shares his journey from APRA and high finance to launching a values-driven investment firm that backs founder-led businesses with enduring potential. Along the way, he explains why character, intent, and systems matter more than numbers, how to recognise and reduce the “invisible tax” of bias, and what it means to taste-test investments the way a winemaker judges vintages.

You’ll discover:

Why return on insight outperforms return on hype
How judgment is shaped and clouded by unseen bias
Why leading your wealth journey like a founder helps you avoid following the herd
How Lawrence’s upbringing and career shaped his philosophy on alignment and long-term conviction

This is part one of a two-part series with Lawrence. Next week, we’ll dive into his book The Founder Effect and the frameworks you can use to invest with clarity and conviction.

So if you’re ready to tune out the noise and start investing with vision, character, and courage — let’s get invested.
