Every career, business and pension depends on how well you understand money. Brian Rose spent years as a banker in the City of London before he started London Real, and since 2011 he has put the same questions to founders, investors, traders and economists. These conversations cover starting and funding a company, the stock market, property, crypto, and the economic risks that can wipe out savings. They range from early London fintech founders to global names. Every full interview is free to watch.
From Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki and Cardone Capital CEO Grant Cardone to Nutmeg founder Nick Hungerford, Pitch Anything author Oren Klaff, Million Dollar Listing star Ryan Serhant, Morgan Creek Capital founder Mark Yusko and Jordan Belfort: how wealth is built in business, markets, property and crypto.
Between 2013 and 2015 London Real recorded dozens of interviews with the founders and investors behind London’s tech boom. Nick Hungerford explains how he set out to make wealth management digital with Nutmeg. Taavet Hinrikus describes building TransferWise, now Wise, and Christian Faes talks about founding LendInvest. On the funding side, Jeff Lynn explains equity crowdfunding at Seedrs, while Ben Holmes of Index Ventures and Suranga Chandratillake of Balderton Capital share how venture capitalists pick companies. Oren Klaff argues that every pitch must first win over the listener’s primitive brain.
Robert Kiyosaki warns that a global financial meltdown is closer than most people think, and explains how he protects his wealth. James Rickards, author of Currency Wars, links broken supply chains and inflation to a slowing global economy. Timothy Sykes explains how he trades penny stocks, and Jeff Brown of Brownstone Research covers tech investing in AI, quantum computing and CRISPR. Nomi Prins, a former Wall Street banker, shares how she reads the markets. For a lesson in what can go wrong, Nick Leeson tells how one trader brought down Barings Bank.

Ryan Serhant, the New York broker from Million Dollar Listing, shares how to become a sales machine. Kevin Green talks about building wealth through UK property, and Brian Rose’s Dubai Real series goes inside the city’s luxury property market.
