Welcome to eFunding, your go-to resource for the latest business growth strategies, AI and tech.
Video coming soon… play for some nice music 🙂
Invest in You is a global podcast where Fredrik Sandvall shares ideas and conversations with entrepreneurs, investors, and operators. The show explores investing, entrepreneurship, AI, and personal development with a focus on long-term value, ownership, and clear decision-making.
Occasionally joined by his sons, Charlie and Ivan, the podcast blends experience with a next-generation perspective. The goal is simple: help you think better, act with intent, and build a life and portfolio that compound over time.
Most people react to the headlines, but the real money is made in the backstory everyone else missed. Brad Olesen joins the show to pull back the curtain on how financial news is actually manufactured and why being “first” is worthless if you don’t have context. We dive into the shifting landscape of media, from the rise of AI-generated “slop” to the dangerous allure of vanity metrics on social media. Brad shares why the most successful traders focus on preserving wealth rather than getting rich quick and how psychological biases often lead us into failed investment campaigns. Whether you’re an entrepreneur tracking your competition through SEC filings or a self-directed trader looking for a speed advantage, this conversation is a masterclass in separating signal from noise in a world of constant distraction.
5 Key Takeaways
Context over Content: Headlines alone can lead to the wrong side of a trade; understanding the market’s anticipation is key to “selling the news” effectively.
Wealth Preservation First: Focus on sustaining yourself long-term; mathematically, a 10% loss requires much more than a 10% gain just to break even.
Competition Intelligence: Entrepreneurs should dive deep into SEC filings and public disclosures to find strategic weaknesses in their competitors.
Watch Action, Not Words: Rely on aggregate data of what customers actually do rather than the loudest voices or vanity metrics.
The Trust Deficit: As AI makes content creation cheaper, the value of established brands with human “checks and balances” will continue to rise.
