[@squibys2262]

Best episode yet, the guest comes across as a very deep thinker. I could of listened for hours. Very genuine and relatable.

[@MakingMoneyPodcast]

We totally agree - Timo was a pleasure to listen to

[@iliyaapollosadamu34]

Didnt want it to finish and to think that its a long video. Love the conversation and the fact that one can relate directly to what Timo was saying. He sure is a motivation.

[@MakingMoneyPodcast]

That's so great to hear Iliya. We didn't want it to end either. He definitely motivated all of us too. MM Team

[@andypayne2743]

This was great. I would also like to see people that have gained huge wealth and lost it all, maybe former lottery winners or sports people. It would be interesting to hear you guys delve into the psychological side of money and finance, which is one if the keys to building wealth. Great podcast guys.

[@MakingMoneyPodcast]

Thanks Andy! That's exactly what we're planning on doing, later on in the season we're speaking to Kerry Katona who went from being a millionaire to bankruptcy (twice) and then back to being a millionaire. We are definitely going to look more into the psycological side too, like you say it is key to building wealth. MM Team

[@Brown969]

Love about this podcast: 1. that Timo didn't name drop with every story 2. Happiness is on a spectrum Thanks team for another success!! Would've loved to hear his perspective on tax. ❤

[@MakingMoneyPodcast]

Thank you! There's definitely so much more we could have talked to him about...maybe we'll persuade him to come back on in the future. MM Team

[@laurindamota5791]

You three are like three mates meeting in a pub to chill out on a Friday evening. Easy flow intelligence conversation about real life issues.

[@MrDown2AT]

Thanks Laurinda, that's the exact vibe we are aiming for!

[@DushaneTB]

Thank you Damien for bringing Timo on. My favourite enterteprenuer. Cant wait for his book

[@realollyrichards]

The genius of Timo is that he’s not afraid to gloss over the emotions around money and success.

[@juliegovier6570]

What a clever, articulate, grounded man. Really interesting.

[@jan2000nl]

Amazing discussion. Well done chaps. You can see why Timo is so successful - such a grounded and deep thinker. Just on a different level.

[@LB-W]

Great convo. Depth between three guys is always amazing to see. Fascinated by the very capable young man that is Tim. Keep the love in your hearts gents. 👌

[@tinotendamukandi8650]

5 minutes in and I am already swept by this one, lovely guest and mindset.

[@ahmedsherif1359]

This podcast is a hidden GEM, I hope you guys never stop it. ❤

[@MakingMoneyPodcast]

Thanks so much Ahmed! We don't plan on stopping :)

[@MrDown2AT]

Cheers Ahmed, we aim to get better every episode!

[@Life_Literacy]

Brilliant episode fella’s. Such an interesting and genuine guest… best so far. Definitely shows the ethos of you are the people that surround you and 6th form experience really raising the bar of expectations. Such heart felt moments and raw honesty. Great job.

[@FrostiesDoodles]

Really interesting to listen to Timo, incredibly humble about his success and nice to see giving real thought to his answers

[@MrDown2AT]

Perfect podcast guest!

[@matthewfifield3961]

T really hit his stride in this interview. Good to see him bust out of his shell and take the lead in questioning your guest. Great team dynamic on display. Genuine love and respect between friends and business partners. Best interview so far. More like this please.

[@MakingMoneyPodcast]

Thanks Matthew!

[@rufdymond]

That education thing is interesting - several years ago I took an evening class on mobile phone app development specifically games programming. I’ve been a developer for many years, so for me it was just a course to learn something different from the norm. One of the things that became apparent was how much many of the people who took the class struggled with the maths involved in the course. I was speaking to the lecture who was from Poland after class one evening and he told me that he was often shocked at how poor people here in the U.K. were at maths. Much of the math taught in our class, would be stuff teenage children would be expected to know in Poland, but most people in the class who were young adults found it really difficult. Makes me wonder where our schools are going wrong.

[@clarenceishmael9615]

That was superb! These podcasts are definitely going from strength to strength! He's a super impressive young man.

[@MakingMoneyPodcast]

He really is! Thanks so much Clarence, that's so great to hear.

[@MrDown2AT]

Thank you for the support Clarence, the comments motivate us to get better each episode!

[@creatingbalancefinance]

Another brilliant interview 😊 really enjoying these. Definitely makes clearing all the kids toys up on a Sunday much more enjoyable 👍

[@GhostPrefix]

What an open and honest character !

[@davidstuart3795]

Smashing episode. Timo is an interesting guy. This felt a bit like therapy for Damo as well 😂. Just so you know Damo. Your great at what you do, the feedback is real.

[@DamienTalksMoney]

I 100% had a full on therapy session here 🤣

[@EamonCoyle]

That is an absolutely beautiful way of describing things. I think Tim is right that people hide away from being honest about what makes them stand apart in case it is taken negatively. I absolutely respect him saying he felt superior as you can clearly see that is a personal interpretation of himself and he certainly does not appear to treat people as if he is better.

[@MakingMoneyPodcast]

Thanks for the great comment Eamon. We loved how open and thoughtful Timo was with his answers - we certainly came away inspired!

[@minimad8793]

brilliant guys, just brilliant. Goes to show, someone from a less wealthy background can get great success with a bit of determination. Well worth the time to watch this was 👍👍👍👍

[@MakingMoneyPodcast]

Thanks for the comment - we couldn't agree more!

[@MrDown2AT]

Timo is a perfect example of what we are trying to do with this podcast, showing normal people that they can make money!

[@Daddycoolclub]

Love this episode ❤, Tim comes across so down-to-earth and a genuine guy, good luck to him and all his success. Would love to know more about him and his businesses if you have any further information or how you found out about him I’d appreciate the links. Also funny that I wasn’t the only one sold cigarettes to classmates at school, T has some interesting life lessons would be great to find out more about him and his journey in and around the crypto space, if that’s not on the agenda it should be. Best of luck to you all and thanks for the great content.

[@MrDown2AT]

Lol, I was a bit hesitant about mentioning the cigarette selling so thanks for the vote of confidence! Crypto is quite polarising but we should hopefully be doing a crypto episode next season 😄. I used to work in commodities as a broker, then a consultant, before I found my true love (crypto!). The crypto journey is a wild one so I won't give any more spoilers till the episode!

[@xaldath4265]

Great episode. They just seem to be getting better and better. Thank you. I found the bits about separating self-worth and identity from the money and career as well as the hedonic treadmill of comparison permeating into the higher levels of wealth that most of us will never see. You know what they say, comparison is the thief of joy(Sometimes even to one's self)

[@MakingMoneyPodcast]

Glad you are enjoying the podcast! This definitely made us reflect on how money/wealth impacts how we define ourselves and others. MM Team

[@brainbits6065]

Best episode so far! Interesting to hear his perspective on losing money after making it.

[@MrDown2AT]

Definitely one of my favourite guests so far, Timo is a legend on and off the camera!

[@mattsennett]

What a smashing guy and I would not be surprised if he keeps going on to bigger and better things 👍🏻

[@SteveDuts]

Incredible podcast, with someone that young and successful he came across so well and it was an amazing listen. Unlike last weeks guess who was the exact opposite.

[@DamienTalksMoney]

Glad you liked this one Steve! Timo is such a good guy with so much wisdom, I hope to have him back on in the future

[@jf6882]

Another belter of a podcast 🎉

[@MakingMoneyPodcast]

Thanks JF - we love this one too!

[@fcruz_]

Great episode! I don't understand how this only has 2k views! good job!

[@MakingMoneyPodcast]

Thank you! Glad you liked it. MM Team

[@joeallen781]

Anyone who can make it out of Old Kent Road is a legend

We definitely came away from the interview with the same view Joe

[@CavanHaganInvesting]

Timo is a top guy. Deserves every success he's had 👍

[@MrDown2AT]

One of my favourite guests so far, inspirational guy and very down to earth.

Welcome to the Making Money club! Great first episode to get started on!

Brilliant podcast, thank you.

Cheers, we hope you keep watching as we always aim to improve. 💪

[@matthyslop9163]

Great episode, good to see T growing in confidence too. Keep them coming!

[@MrDown2AT]

Thanks Matt, really kind of you to say. I'm trying to keep up with Damo the KZbin superstar!

[@matthyslop9163]

​@@MrDown2AT I think this is where the 'The Gap vs The Gain' that Timo talks about comes into it's own. Damo may be a superstar, but where you were and where you are going is a much better comparison to make. I think you have come along in this series already and looking forward to future episodes as you add a great perspective for the viewer/listener

[@MrDown2AT]

@@matthyslop9163 Wisdom, thanks very much! You might be on to something there, I'm definitely a lot more confident than episode 1! You night even see me in an intro soon, with Damo sadly injured 🤕👀
