Today we revisit one of our most popular interviews to date.
In October 2020 we spoke to Chris Camillo, Founder of Dumb Money and an investor that had turned $20k into over $30 million.

Having led and founded a series of successful tech and software companies, in 2018 Chris - and his two friends Dave Hanson and Jordan McLain - gave up their day job to invest their own money, full-time. Not only have they already recorded extraordinary success, but Chris and co. have also pioneered a unique investment strategy, or what they call ‘Social Arbitrage’.

Chris hasn’t stopped there, Dumb Money have chronicled every high - and low - on their eponymous YouTube channel, now a mainstay among individual investors. The channel had 52,000 subscribers when we last spoke, now their audience is more than double that size.

Chris gives us a real insight into his strategy, but not only that, he highlights several burgeoning trends that on reflection almost 2 years later, prove to be prescient investment calls. Enjoy!
