About Talking Billions

Welcome to Talking Billions.  We talk about big ideas, big inspirations, and big topics. We take on the hardest subject of all – money- how to make, save, and keep it. 

Our conversations lead us to an even bigger question — what it means to live a rich life beyond money  – being rich and feeling rich versus looking rich, how we spend our time, how we work, how we organize our lives, and so much more.

Talking Billions is a podcast where I sit down and have heart-to-heart conversations with friends of friends in the US, coast to coast, and around the globe.

My guests are of all ages, 20s to 80s, and so is my audience. They vary from best-selling authors, award-winning podcasters, and stars of acclaimed documentaries to those who only now had the first chance to share their ideas, experiences, and wisdom with you and me. We forget that we recorded, and I edit all myself to make guests feel safe and heard.

I'm an investment advisor with two decades of experience. I was born in Poland and educated around Europe. I made New York my home for most of my adult life. Today, I divide my time among a few locations. I'm a published author; my book Money Life Family garnered the most attention.

Two decades ago, I was interviewed as a university student on national radio. Soon after, I interviewed a minister of finance amid a budgetary crisis. I’m a TEDx Speaker who gave talks on investing coast to coast and around Europe. I trained my ear evaluating countless Toastmasters speeches. Here I come to you as a podcast host as curious as you are to learn more.

The wave of sudden wealth creation happening through inheritance, entrepreneurship, and career success is like nothing we've ever seen before. Hence, there's a rise in people who need long-term, patient, disciplined investment practices and principles. Yet, so few still hold this wisdom in this shortsighted, fast-paced, impatient world. Talking Billions is a bridge in times of need. It offers an intimate and inspiring space where wealth and wisdom keepers share their evergreen practices and principles for a rich and fulfilling life.

Join me on this quest to unearth the wisdom of the ages. I’m your host, Bogumil Baranowski.
