In this Substack live-streamed conversation from last week, Vitaliy and I discuss:
Daily life up under a communist government
The rise in anti-Semitism from both the Right and the Left
Why he is so disturbed by President Trump’s profiting off of market-moving social media posts
Vitaliy lives in Denver with his wife and three children. In his free time, he enjoys reading, listening to classical music, playing chess, and writing about the intersections of investing and life.
