Every investor has a first step, and a few missteps along the way. In this opening conversation, Serge Weyland and Ala Presenti share their personal investing stories: the wins, the errors, and the lessons they’ll never forget. From the cost of not investing to the importance of starting early, they discuss how attitudes toward risk, diversification, and purpose have evolved. In their exchange, experience meets curiosity to reveal how each generation learns — and relearns — the value of time in investing. A candid start to the day and a reminder that waiting can be the costliest decision of all.
