In this conversation, Madurai breaks down how he unknowingly built wealth for years without even knowing the word "investment," why he's been selling his physical gold and shifting into fixed income bonds, and the math behind his portfolio split across bonds, mutual funds, real estate, and global ETFs. He also shares a sharp geopolitical take connecting Trump's tariff policy, rupee depreciation, and what he calls economic imperialism, along with his blunt advice on what Indians should stop buying, what they should start exporting, and how the financial education system is failing an entire generation. This episode is a raw, ground-level perspective on money, geopolitics, and what financial freedom actually looks like when you've lived both extremes.
