Summary: DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE! Episode 37 took the podcast to uncharted places with its lighthearted approach to the world of Finance. A world that is not for the faint of heart, Finance has always been a tense and fast-paced world, and has often caused people to either invest late, or not at all. Enter Abdelazim Eltoukhy, one of the nicest and most decent men one can come across, who navigates us through the tepid financial landscape. Abdelazim's childhood in Cairo has really given him an interest in architecture and the world around him, and through his time in New York and Miami, his perspective continued to change and evolve, finally allowing him to push his analytical brain to its limit. Abdelazim's due diligence to himself to persevere and power through his breaking points while studying and working in finance is partly from his deep rooted relationship with his parents; "If you face challenges, you HAVE to face them". It's one of the reasons Abdelazim has eventually become the focal point in building the trading platform "Ticr" which allows users to trade US stocks in the UAE. No easy feat, Abdelazim also takes us through the numerous obstacles he and his co-founder go through from a regulatory perspective, and their challenges as entrepreneurs in this red ocean market. If you've ever found yourself intimated by financing and investing, or even managing your personal financial life, this is an episode you don't want to miss.
