About me

That guy up there? That's me. Happy as a clam..

...Months later, I made a promise to myself but more on that soon!

I'm Gerardo Ruglio. Everyone calls me Dino. Even my parents...

This is the section where I should tell you how amazing I am. I could also say that I have 2 bachelor degrees, 1 masters degree in finance, 5 diplomas and I speak 4 languages. But I won't bore you with grand visions or fancy degrees

That's not my style

I'm an investor. I make money to buy time and freedom

That's my gig. Simple, right?

Change the world? Make spring cry with emotion? Not my thing

I'm just a normal guy

Why am I telling you this?

I've got two little rugrats

They still have baby teeth

I tuck them in with bedtime stories

When they were born, I held them close

Told them how proud I was of them and their mother

Nurses thought I was nuts. I didn't care

With my kids in my arms, we're invincible

The promise:

Panic hit when a top dog got fired like trash

No warning. No goodbyes. Just politics

Saw my suited-up colleagues freaking out

Fear in their eyes. Dog-eat-dog world

Life scared me. Not zombies or vampires

Just plain old life

My heart raced. My mind spun

Slowly, I caught my breath

My promise? No more suits and ties for work

Only for fun from now on

Months later

I started investing. Escaping the rat race

Slow and steady, like a mine tractor

Time passing doesn't bug me. Living does

Nothing beats enjoying your kids

Our kids are our only legacy

They say I should solve your problem. Connect

Alright then

I'll make you an investor. A good investment changes lives

But I'll be subtle. No hard sell

You're the star here, not me

I should tell a personal story. Build trust

I survived appendicitis in '92. I'm stronger now

Are you feeling close to me yet? You should

Here's the deal:

I'm not good at much...

I'm an investor. That's my superpower!

I've got dreams and nightmares

I love rain, coffee, wine, books, and my kids' artwork

I like living. That's all

Invest with zest

live with no rest

That's my quest
