Download the App and start investing! https://app.getbamboo.io/invest?referral=Welcome back to the Driven Young podcast and guys I am so excited to announce, today is my first ever sponsored episode.After 50 episodes, I have refused all sponsor offers as I am super careful with brands I want to promote. This is how I plan to use sponsors, rather than do a 30-second ad read, I prefer to bring on the founder or CEO and learn about their story and provide as much value as possible.So today I am joined by Blake, the CEO of Bamboo. Bamboo is a micro investments platform that allows anyone to seamlessly purchase digital assets, like Gold and Bitcoin. It's an easy, secure, and effective way to participate in this growing asset class. All you need is a mobile phone and a bank account to get started.So at the time of releasing this episode, bitcoin has been on fire and everyone wants to know more about cryptocurrency. Tesla recently invested $1.5 Billion into Bitcoin along with some other major companies. Hence why I wanted to bring on Blake, to deep dive into Bitcoin and Crypto.Today we get intoHow did Bitcoin originate?What is Bitcoin and crypto?The opportunity crypto presentsWhy it is so volatile?The difference between crypto and our current currencyInflationWhy bitcoin is like digital goldAnd so much more.If you are in Australia and want to get started investing in crypto, gold or silver, I highly recommend checking out get bamboo, they make it so easy for first-time investors to set up and start to dip their toes into the water.

Om Podcasten

I started the Driven Young Podcast as a way to help educate and inspire the younger generation. There are plenty of amazing podcasts out there but I find very few tailors their content to those in high-school and uni. Even the ones that claim they do seem to go off track and fail to keep their message clear and simple for the younger generation to understand.I believe our world is changing so fast, the current education system can’t keep up and is left teaching us old and outdated skills no longer relevant in the workplace.This podcast explores what I believe should have been taught in school and aims to help people realise the world is different from when their parents grew up and we must make relevant decisions based on the world we live in currently not the world people used to live in
