My guest today is Vitaliy Katsenelson. Vitaliy holds a CFA and is the CEO of Investment Management Associates, better known as IMA. Vitaliy is also an author of a popular series of newsletters as well as multiple books, including his newest release Soul in the Game. It’s a beautiful book that goes beyond the learnings from investing and dives deeper into how to make a meaningful life - what I think all of us are really here for.   IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL LEARN: 00:00:00 - Intro 00:00:36 - How Vitaliy is thinking through today’s market 00:25:34 - When active value investing is too active 00:34:42 - How to develop better habits 00:51:25 - What Vitaliy has learned from Stoicism 01:07:00 - How honing your art and craft is essential for investing and other areas of life 01:12:50 - What we can learn from classical composers as well as painters such as Van Gogh 01:25:18 - The equation for a meaningful life Vitaliy and I spoke for nearly two hours and we could’ve gone on likely much longer. Stoicism is a passion of mine and it was a lot of fun to explore it in this format. I always love finding threads between art and other creative outlets to investing, which is often overlooked as a craft. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did, so without further ado, here is my conversation with Vitaliy Katsenelson. ☕ Get the freshest roasted and ethically sourced beans from America’s best local roasters with Trade Coffee. Plus, a total of $30 off your first order and free shipping — that’s more than 40 cups of coffee for free!
