#16 - Ben Warwick: Intellectual Capital, Economic Growth, and The Future of Wealth Management

In this episode, our guest is Ben Warwick, Chief Investment Officer of Aveo Capital Partners. We begin with the human aspect of wealth management, discussing why the approach should be tailored to each person's situation, outlook, and definition of financial success. We overview the history of value storage and preservation mechanisms, such as the gold standard, fiat systems, and cryptocurrencies, and what the future of these tools might look like. We further discuss the concepts of economic, relational, and spiritual poverty and the ways to abolish these through career and community development. We talk about the future of wealth management and the potential scenario of changing the definition of wealth when anything is available for free with the help of technology such as a replicator. We touch on the trends related to AI, its impact on technological development and economic growth, and discuss its negative influence on people's problem-solving skills.
