“Learn how to take care of your money.”Dudu Cearense

 

Guest profile

Dudu Cearense is an ex-soccer player, financial adviser, and private banker.

Worst investment ever

Dudu was a young athlete making good money, just like many professional athletes, but he didn’t know anything about managing this money. He didn’t know about saving on taxes, he didn’t clearly understand the terms of his contract, and most importantly, he didn’t know how to invest his money.

Therefore, Dudu relied on other people for investment advice. A friend came along and told him that real estate was the best way to invest his money. Since he didn’t know much about investing, Dudu believed his friend, so he only built a real estate portfolio.

Lessons learned

• You need to know everything about your investments before you invest.
• Read and understand contracts before you sign them.
• Invest in learning about money management.

Andrew’s takeaways

• You cannot expect other people to take care of your finances. You’ve got to learn how to do it yourself.
• Be responsible for your financial life.
• Only go into investing if you know what you’re doing.

Actionable advice

You need to know what to do with your money from the moment you start making it.

No.1 goal for the next 12 months

Dudu’s number one goal for the next 12 months is to start a podcast and get to 1,000 clients.
