Bonus: Easy Future Conversations 7: What can go wrong

Graeme Codrington"s Future of Work ·

2022/08/29

We are all caught up now... Carel Nolte of Easy Equities and myself, Graeme Codrington, continue our conversations about the future of investing - and wine - by talking about what can go wrong. We touch on the problems of unrealistic returns, overblown promises, day trading, lack of research (and what "research means" to the average investor), and staying the course as an investor. We discuss whether we agree with Warren Buffett's investment advice about making sure you don't pick losers rather

Bonus: Easy Future Conversations 6: Offshore investing

2022/08/29

Carel Nolte and I continue our conversations about the future of investing, with some interesting ways to diversify your portfolio by investing "offshore". It's not always what you think (for example, most of the Top Ten stocks on the Johannesburg Stock exchange make almost all their income "off shore"). We then sample a corn wine from the Netherlands, and hastily retreat... because we still had two more videos to record, and that corn wine would have finished us. This is video 6 of 8 - next week

Apologies for the delay in releasing these Easy Future Conversations to the podcast. Here are a few bonus episodes to catch up with the YouTube feed. We are half way through the conversations I had with my friend, Carel Nolte, about the future of investing, what he's learnt from his work at Easy Equities, and our love of wine. Carel hijacked this segment by forcing me to try a Rose wine (he believed he had found one that I would like). So we start with the wine, but then Carel expertly leads the

2022/08/25

Now that we can get food delivered to us from any restaurant to anywhere, we don't have to rely on the room service offered to us by the hotel we're staying in. OK... this isn't really a "future prediction" as it is a potential reality already. This week's "lesson from the future" is less about hotels, food delivery and room service, and more about the potential of unexpected competition in your own industry. But, if you do find yourself in a hotel and don't like the room service options, don't

Throwforward Thursday 66: The end of Antibiotics

Graeme Codrington"s Future of Work ·

2022/08/18

Antibiotics changed our world 100 years ago, probably adding about 20 years to average lifespans as we dealt with infections and disease. But bacteria are continuing to adapt and are fast outpacing our antibiotics. It is very likely that by 2050 our current antibiotics will be useless, and that could dramatically change how we manage healthcare. We need to use fewer antibiotics, in ourselves and in our food supply; and we need to look for alternatives to antibiotic use to combat bacterial

Throwforward Thursday 65: The end of rush hour traffic

Graeme Codrington"s Future of Work ·

2022/08/11

Why do we still have rush hour traffic - with EVERYONE trying to get to work and school at the SAME TIME every working day? It's 2022 and we know about flexible working, and public transport and even the potential for AI-managed traffic systems (via traffic apps or driverless cars). This is not so much a prediction as a hope and plea that we rid the world of the curse of rush hour traffic as soon as possible.

Graeme Codrington"s Future of Work ·

2022/08/05

One of the dumbest things we do in business is force people to retire, simply because they hit a specific date in the calendar, even though they might be excellent contributors and still want to continue working. As individuals, most of us already know we can't afford to retire in our sixties (especially if we are going to live much longer than previous generations). And many of us would rather save to give ourselves flexibility and dignity, rather than merely to be able to afford to stop working.

2022/08/01

The fourth (of eight) conversations with Carel Nolte about the future of investing where we talk about alternative investment options, asset classes for the future, and how we can get children interested in investing. As always, we also talk about wine, and this time chat about an interesting blend made by an interesting wine maker, Erika Obermeyer. If you're not a fan of the wine conversation, skip a few minutes to the end to hear Carel talk about getting future generations involved in future

Graeme Codrington"s Future of Work ·

2022/07/28

Imagine a world in which we don't eat meat from animals. No, not a world with no meat, but a rather a world where our meat is grown in labs, rather than on animals. And no, not fake or artificial meat (from soya or plants), but rather meat grown from animal stem cells, indistinguishable from "real meat". In fact, it IS real meat. If we can do this, and ensure that it is healthy, economically viable, sustainable and ethical, the question is: would people eat it. I think they will. And I think it's

In this mini-series, my mate, Carel Nolte and I talk about the future of investment, the importance of wealth creation and I get to dig into some of Carel's insights from his work at Easy Equities (a South African investment platform that you can check out here: https://bit.ly/3Pdd2qN - no obligations, but full disclosure: I earn about $2.50 if you activate an account after you've had a look). We also talk about wine, because Carel and I never talk seriously about anything without wine... This is

2022/07/21

We are all afraid of something, whether it is snakes, spiders, sharks, the dark, heights or something else. Could technology provide solutions by helping to train our brains to respond in different and less fearful ways? The answer, of course, is YES, and it is already happening. Check out: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/jul/13/no-fear-the-new-zealand-virtual-reality-app-helping-conquer-phobias If you have any questions for our team about the future, or have an idea we can use in our

Graeme Codrington"s Future of Work ·

2022/07/18

This is the second conversation with my mate, Carel Nolte, where we talk about the future of investing, specifically about the ways in which we can build intergenerational wealth. The so-called "American Dream" from a century ago was that if you worked hard, your children could live a better life than you did. This dream should be the mantra in Africa for the next few decades, and it involves thinking differently about what we do with our money, the land, employment and investments. There are no

2022/07/14

There are a lot of diamonds in the world - a total of about 6 billion carats (weighing around a million kilograms), with around 140 million carats mined every year. But known reserves will run out within a decade or so. That won't be the end of diamonds, though. We can now make diamonds in labs. Not "fake" diamonds - we can make real diamonds. But do we want to? Do you care, if you don't know the difference? Either way, we are facing the end of our current relationship with diamonds in the very near

So here it is: the first of my series of conversations with Carel Nolte. We are long-time friends who often get together to talk about life, the universe and everything - almost always with a bottle of wine. We decided to record our conversation about the future of investing, so you could listen in. I am doing research for a new book, and Carel brings his years of experience at Easy Equities to the discussion. The result is 8 conversations, each about 8 minutes long, with 8 bottles of

This is a quick introduction to a new series of 8 videos of Carel and I talking about the future of investing. Over the next 8 weeks, I hope you enjoy listening in to our discussions.

Here is a quick bonus episode of the Future of Work podcast, sharing an insight I discovered in a report from O/Slash. There's a hidden and surprising reason young people don't want to come back to the office: they waste a lot of time being tech support for older colleagues. Here's how to fix that, and build a better team culture. Report available: https://www.oslash.com/google-it-first

Sometime in the 2030s, artificial intelligence-driven algorithms will prove to be better at picking stocks and managing investment funds than human beings - removing emotion, trading faster with more information, and course-correcting better than we can. We didn't think computers would beat us at Chess or Go - we were wrong. "Playing the market" might very well be something left to smart machines, as we see the end of... investment brokers and fund managers.

There are things that can be done to ensure this doesn't happen - let's make sure we do them. We don't want to live in a world without chocolate, do we?

This week we start a new series about things that are going to end in our lifetimes, and how that will impact the world we live and work in. No, it's not going to be doom and gloom - some of these things can be replaced, and some we can do without anyway. But our focus is actually going to be on how to prepare for deep structural and disruptive change, with foresight, innovation and adaptability. Please make suggestions for what should be on our list of things coming to an end at
