Welcome to the very first episode of The Long Game.

In this short introduction, Mihir Shah shares the purpose behind the podcast and what listeners can expect from future conversations.

There is no shortage of advice about money and investing today, but what often gets missed are the real stories behind financial independence — the decisions people made, the mistakes they learned from, and the lessons they discovered along the way.

The Long Game is a podcast focused on exploring how people actually build wealth and financial freedom over time. Each episode features conversations with individuals who are on the path to financial independence or who have already achieved it.

Through these discussions, we’ll explore topics like:

• Financial Independence (FIRE) • Investing and long-term wealth building • Major financial decisions that shaped people’s journeys • Lessons learned from mistakes • Mindset shifts around money and freedom

If you're interested in financial independence, investing, and learning from real experiences rather than theory, this podcast is for you.

New episodes will feature thoughtful conversations with people who are playing the long game with their finances.
