Ep 01: I claimed bankruptcy at 25, now I manage other people’s money

Welcome to the first episode where your host Dave O’Leary, shares his personal story of claiming bankruptcy at just 25 years old. Dave details how his troubles unfolded, the painful financial collapse he suffered, the lengths he went to in order to hide the bankruptcy from his friends and work colleagues, and ultimately losing a job offer because of it. This story is for anyone who has ever felt ashamed or embarrassed about their financial circumstances. You’re not alone. We have all made mistakes, even financial professionals.
