Arigato, dear investor,

The past 2 days have been full of learning for me.

And honestly… I’m still processing everything.

I spent the last couple of days sitting down with two very successful investors, diving deep into how they look at the world of investing today — from stocks, ETFs, gold, silver, crypto, and beyond.

What I love most about these conversations isn’t just the returns.

It’s how calm, grounded, and clear their thinking is — even in uncertain markets.

One conversation that really blew my mind

One of the investors I interviewed is Laurent Lequeu, a multi-asset fund manager who helps high-net-worth clients manage their portfolios safely and peacefully.

And here’s the part that still amazes me:

Since he shared his views on gold one year ago,
👉 gold prices have almost doubled.

No hype.
No noise.
Just solid, thoughtful analysis.

Now that gold is back at all-time highs, and after recently seeing a ~10% pullback, I was once again incredibly curious:

  • How does he really see gold at these levels?

  • What about commodities and other precious metals?

  • How should investors think about them today, not emotionally, but rationally?

His answers completely stretched my thinking.

I can’t wait to share this new interview with you when it launches on my channel.

In the meantime, if you haven’t watched our first podcast episode together, you can check it out here: 👇️ 

Another conversation that reminded me what adaptability really means

The other investor I interviewed is Resh.

I’ve known Resh for over 10 years, and I’ve always been impressed by one thing about him:

👉 He’s incredibly nimble, no matter what the market throws at him.

Over the years, he has:

  • Made over $1M in stocks

  • Over $1M in property

  • Over $1M in crypto

Today, he’s a multi-millionaire running a multi-million-dollar business.

But what struck me most during our 1-hour conversation wasn’t just the numbers.

It was how he thinks about:

  • Risk

  • Opportunity

  • Business

  • And staying mentally flexible across different market cycles

I walked away with so many insights — not just as an investor, but as a business owner too.

And yes… I’m really excited to share this conversation with you once it’s ready.

These past two days reminded me why I love doing this.

Learning from people who’ve been through multiple cycles.
Challenging my own thinking.

And then bringing those lessons back to you
— so we can all grow together, the Arigato way 💛

More to share very soon.
