Joe Duran grew up poor, in a one-room house in Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe) during violent and tumultuous times. Today, Joe is Head of Goldman Sachs Personal Financial Management, which serves clients across 100 locations throughout the United States. A proven entrepreneur, investor, best-selling author, and sought-after industry speaker, Joe previously built Centurion Capital, which he sold to General Electric Financial (GE) in 2001 and United Capital, which Goldman acquired in 2019.
Having come to the United States with $200 in his pocket, Joe is the ultimate American success story. Through his entrepreneurship, he has not only achieved personal affluence but has created "hundreds of millionaires" and countless jobs for others along the way. He is also a unique business leader who starts with purpose and works outward, guided by philosophy and the belief that truly knowing his client will help them set better goals unique to their history and values.
In this conversation, we discuss philosophy, wealth, immigration, entrepreneurship, wealth management, parenthood, and the intersection of all of the above.
About Crazy Money: Unlike traditional personal finance shows, Crazy Money is not about how to make a million bucks, how to beat the stock market, or how to save money by switching credit cards. It is about deciding what role we want money to play in our lives and how we can use it to be our best selves.
