Welcome back to the “Wealth, Actually” podcast.
(Reminder:  There is no investment advice here!)
Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have come back into the news as they have jumped around in price in the last two years.  To help us understand the crypto phenomenon, I spoke with Tyrone Ross of Noblebridge Wealth. An extra special thank you to Tyrone for his unique insight, not only into cryptocurrencies, but in describing his personal journey in the wealth management space. There are powerful lessons to be learned here.

Tyrone is a start up investor and financial consultant. He has developed a deep expertise in the cryptocurrency space
He has been a go-to expert for many financial advisors as the space evolves.  In addition to his cryptocurrency niche, Tyrone has carved out a burgeoning media and twitter presence with his outspoken and impactful views on the need for inclusion in the closed off world of financial advice.  Tyrone is also officially the fastest person I have ever interviewed as he was an Olympic Qualifier in the 400m back in 2004!
