About this episode
What are our general principles for investing and how does this mix with the new crypto rules?
In Episode #226 of 'Musings' Juan and I discuss: how my brother is making money through the gambling websites, how your money mindset changes with time, how Wikipedia is the fun version of Newpedia, my general principles when it comes to investing, our relationship with money when we were young and how I am sacrificing car fines to bring you this beautiful Mere Mortality goodness.
As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!
