How Investing in Fine Wine Can Boost Your Investment Portfolio with Anthony
Thursday Mar 18, 2021
Thursday Mar 18, 2021
In today’s episode, we will speak to my friend Anthony Zhang, the co-founder and CEO of Vinovest.
Vinovest is an online platform that allows investors to invest in an interesting asset class, namely fine wines 🍷!
Once your investment portfolio has grown a certain size, it may be interesting to protect it even further with uncorrelated assets (e.g. assets that do not follow the same trend as the traditional stock market) such as wine. Anthony will share why he believes investing in wine makes sense, how we can access this particular investment, what the expected returns can be, some market trends, and we will of course discuss the risks and if this investment could be right to you.
This episode is for you if you are interested in diversifying your investment portfolio with alternative assets and/or if you are curious about how investing in wine works in general
So make yourself comfortable, pour yourself a nice glass of vino, and enjoy 😉!

Thursday Mar 11, 2021
Thursday Mar 11, 2021
In today’s episode, we will speak to my friend Janina @JaninaArsenjeva, whom I have met on Twitter.
Janina is a human rights lawyer from Estonia living in Brussels with her son. A couple of years ago she has made the choice to consume and live more ethically and this has led her to live a more minimalistic life.
We will talk about her discovery of minimalism, how she implements it in her daily life as a single mother and she will share practical and easy steps to get started. She will also share the benefits of minimalism and decluttering (and not only decluttering physical stuff) and to conclude we will of course look at how minimalism has affected her finances.
This episode is for you if you want to know more about minimalism and if you are looking at simplifying your life as a whole (and no, it is not only about empty cupboards with 3 coffee cups, white walls, and not owning a car).
