Everyone talks about ETFs and index funds like they’re the safe, smart choice. But in this episode, I explain why I think passive investing could be the biggest mistake you make in 2025 — and what to do instead.

I walk you through:

• Why the market is dangerously overpriced

• How passive funds make you buy overpriced and low-quality companies

• The moral problem hiding inside your index portfolio

• Why “just wait it out” doesn’t always work

• What Warren Buffett actually does with his own money

And most importantly, I share how to invest in companies that are actually worth owning — companies that align with your values and your goals.

Mohnish Pabrai didn’t build his investing career alone.

He had a coach.

In this episode of Money and Freedom with Beile Grünbaum, I sit down with Jack Skeen, the coach who helped Pabrai uncover the personal clarity and emotional discipline that ultimately led him to launch a hedge fund.

We explore:

• What defines an intelligent investor

• How self-awareness affects your financial choices

• Why emotional traits like patience and focus matter more than technical skill

• The exact roadmap Jack used with Pabrai, and what you can reflect on for your own journey

This isn’t about becoming someone else.

It’s about understanding who you are and investing with that clarity.

Mar Häusler was a trader in the City of London during the financial crisis — chasing millions on the trading floor. Then she walked away from all of it. What followed was a decade-long journey into Burning Man, ayahuasca, and ashrams across the world.

In this episode, Mar and I talk about what so many female investors are still bound by today — not just fear, but inherited trauma, silence, and social roles that were never designed for us.

We explore what it means to truly feel safe with money, why hoarding is not the same as investing, and how financial freedom requires inner freedom first.

Behind the deals, strip clubs, and jet-set finance — something was breaking.

In this episode of Money and Freedom, I talk to Mar Häusler — a former trader who lived through the 2008 Financial Crisis from the inside. At just 25, she was working 19-hour days in London, trading through market collapse, living on adrenaline and Red Bulls, skiing with the boys, and taking client calls from strip clubs.

She made €100 million for the bank — and then walked away.

This conversation goes beyond finance. It’s about burnout, golden handcuffs, and the hidden cost of ambition. It’s about being a woman in a world where power still plays by old rules. And it’s about what it really takes to step off the path everyone else applauds.

🔑 In this episode:

• Trading through the 2008 crash

• What it was really like to be one of the only women on the floor

• Red Bulls, Vegas, private jets — and the pressure beneath it all

• Burnout and the wake-up call

• Why walking away might be the smartest move you can make

📌 This is part one. In part two, we explore what happened next: Burning Man, ayahuasca, and redefining success on her own terms.

In this episode, I unpack my biggest takeaways from a recent Mindvalley event on manifestation — featuring teachings from Vishen Lakhiani, Roxy Nafousi, Regan Hillyer, and Dr. Joe Dispenza.

I reflect on what manifestation means, how it intersects with wealth building, and why belief, worthiness, and emotional regulation are at the heart of both spiritual growth and smart stock market investing.
