Do you remember the biblical story of David and Goliath, a story about a warrior who used his wits and strengths to defy the impossible?
Picture this and put yourself in a financial environment. You are an inexperienced investor who is trying to outsmart the financial markets but the odds are not in your favor and you don’t have the financial literacy to understand how to value a company or how complex financial markets work. Your disposable capital is stored in a bank bleeding dry to inflation, where do you start?

He has met some of the world's greatest entrepreneurs and investing thought-leaders such as Lauren Templeton (niece of Sir John Templeton) , Mary Buffett (ex-daughter in law of Warren Buffett) , and Robert Kiyosaki (book author of Rich Dad Poor Dad) , Professor Bruce Greenwald (Book author of From Graham to Buffett and Beyond) .
